Storage building

Let's see if can attach. Nope. This video is too large...but the roof is off! Drug it off with long ratchet strap and my truck. We're nothing to it.

I'm done for today. Back has decreed that, if I continue any further today, it will kill me at 2:36 AM. No exceptions. Need to trim inch off top of original siding, on both sides, then ready to nail the top plate on. Probably fabricobble way to build a work surface like did on new section. Only issue is, the new section has holes in the sides cause NO SIDING. Made it easy to stuff 14 foot 2x8 thru, So will, using pieces of the rafters from old roof scabbed together, make a structure inside the structure of the structure I'm structuring into a larger structure. Put two layers of 1/2 OSB on it to stand on. Probably put legs under the legs holding the legs.

Then maybe get some truss set. None set today. Only issue is, somehow, one wall is 1/4ish" taller than other. Still thinking about that. Run some strings and see if can get it tuned in. Possibly use some strips of the old siding to make up the difference. I mean...the roof will hold it down, right?

Third picture shows where I used 3/4 OSB in between the plates. Oddly enough, other side came out perfectly. This is why you don't start at the half-way mark. Should have removed old roof, then built and addition to FIT the existing structure. Only problem with that is would have been catching rain for months.

IF I could get the top plate off and replace that OSB with 2x4 probably be 1/4" high then. Anyone seen my stapler? I can't find my stapler...
