Greg, that was one great tree you have to work with and it gave you a lot of clear woood. What a joy it must be to work with your own trees and get than kind of results. You made great progress and I look forwar to the next video update. Have a great week and be safe. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.

    Katie,,, I really appreciate the use of professionally correct terminology. They are joists. There can be floor joists or roof joists. A joist is different than a truss as trusses are a construction of more than one piece of wood. I am sure that many people watch your type of video to learn skills. It makes your experience and input so much more valuable. Good for you to make the effort.❤❤❤❤

Seriously it must be so satisfying to get some much timber from that big log and the use it on the build. Saves Dollars or if her UK Pounds.

    Hi, just found your YT couple of days ago and been binge watching from the beginning, I'm thoroughly impressed with your work and progress considering there's only the two of you, but that said you both work extremely well together, an impressive team overall, Impressed with Katie jumping right in with any task, there's no gender oriented task organising, just simple there's a task to do and just doing it, very impressive, there's nothing to slow or hold you two back with anything you plan for if you do it together, the sky and beyond as no limits for you two.

    The first boards you put up formed the ledger. Then you put up the rafters, i.e. boards that support the roof. Joints are boards parallel to the ground on which you can build a floor or hang a ceiling.
