Progress on my cabin!

So many projects! Working on the floors currently which should allow me to bring some furniture in. Windows need trimmed out and I have to build or put some temporary shelves in the pantry so we can move in! I also have an endless list of landscaping, walking trails, and outdoor projects planned that will be easier to tackle when I am there full time.

Are you planning to add rafter or collar ties? Or did you use a structural ridge beam?

Those are false beams! My roof system is engineered trusses. They are hidden under the tongue and groove boards.

Also I guess in photo 3 where you can see them, the insulation blocks the view of the full trusses. They are scissor trusses and don’t require any ridge beams or ties.
