Very BUSY weekend, got a lot done and now have 2 new toys for the shop . . . too . . .
All I can say is WOW . . . they sure don't make them like they used to make them ! ! !
And that would be a reference to the (2) new toys for the shop ( guy closed his business and sold them )
- Plans . . ...
Big Dilemma on which direction to go . . . Had (2) different options . . . Hummmm . . .
Was not sure which direction to start on this morning for the days task . . . picked this one . . .
Now that the back overhang is in place for this side, this next section "should" be able to be done ? ? ...
Take it apart - put it back together . . . rinse and repeat . . . Story of my shop progress . . .
Unfortunately - that's what has to happen for the progress to continue . . .
First order of the day . . .
The missing ends of the rafters - since the support is sideways to support the overhang...

To only rain on Friday . . . REALLY . . . Good news, more time to work on the roof ! ! !
So Thursdays efforts were not pre-work...
Slightly different explanation on this . . .
Electronic flashers are "directional", so if the Electronic flasher is not working, you might have to swap the power leads in the connecting plug.
Additionally - some places will attempt to sell you a "polarity switcher" plug that they claim will...
Just a side note . . .
when you change to LED bulbs, since they have a much smaller current draw, your flashers might no longer work properly ! !
By the way . . . this could also cause the turn signals to not flash too ( probably just light and stay on )
Simple solution . . .
look for an...
Big push before the rain - as always, a load of prep work needs to get done first . . .
As always, the amount of prep-work that needs to get done first is always amazing . . . here we go . . .
Really odd . . . to be removing the plastic cover from the shop that I fought so hard to keep it on...
