This roof is not made from trusses we hand set a ridge beam that was a 6 x 12 and we set it in 3 pieces and we carried each piece up extension ladders and set on top of post that went down to the first floor  :whew: :whew:

Slag The person taking the pics must have been holding the camera a bit crooked,and ridge beam didn't set on a post down to the first floor on the gable end but you can see there was some pretty stout framing around the window that was framed in before the sheeting went on  :laf:

Those are octagon windows and were a bit of a trick to cut and get right,there was no extra logs in this kit no room for mistakes
