Great!

Half of the rafter stock is now dimensioned, another plank yet to be cut up but otherwise I'm ready to start...

Hey Derek,

I finally acquired Rhino 3D so the roof model I drew previously can now be accessed and edited. Wondering if you have any interest in resuming this project?

Chris,
So sorry I missed this, haven't checked in on the forum for a while.

Yes - I still have enormous interest in resuming this project :D

Warm regards

Derek

Oh and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Well then, that means I've got to get up of my backside and produce something. I'll work on a mailing, the first subject of which will likely be the keta connection. A different joint than last time. Should have something done by the end of the coming week.

Thanks. Yesterday I was careless about where I had left a cup of tea, and my 7-month old was curious to grab the cup, resulting in my keyboard getting soaked and killed. Got a new one today.

Also had a glitch with Rhino's export to Sketchup, which I did because I thought it might save time (as I'm a lot faster at SU at this point), however the file came through in a form that looked fine but was hard to modify. So, starting the sketching again I'm afraid....

Last night had 2 hours sleep as I'm excited about a potential job on the horizon. So, today is not looking promising for much more sketching.

We'll get there and I appreciate your patience.
