    Had to crawl around running wire for the future can lights and was able to get a better pic. A play on angles, thats why the cuts are off and they look odd. Its spanning about 25-30’ so theres multiple webs of truss going across, triangles everywhere.

    Also hopefully the last time im having to be up there until the last two middle units are getting sold/roughed in. Being that high doesnt get any more fun the longer youre up.

    Thanks, but way above and beyond anything that was necessary! Yup, odd, mismatched miter joints made them look like different widths of lumber. My knees were hurting just thinking about walking across the trusses. Glad that you are feeling better.

    That color and the Pyrite Mica were my 2 favorite colors for our generation of trucks.
