The roof

The carpenter has reappeared this week and has been busy cutting the bits for the A frames to shape and size. He hopes to get at least one of them installed next week.
Some of the bits
To do this a bit of wall needs hacking out with a jack hammer for the feet to sit in. It will look like this when done.

Then they will be built in place which sounds a bit complex to manage to get everything in the right place. Doug is going to be needed to hold things. He hopes to get them installed later this week. V exciting.

In the mean time Doug has been spending wet days putting up rail and supports in places where they won't interfere with A frame construction. He has been using our new scaffold which seems perfect for the job, no wheels, but more sturdy feeling to stand on for that.
