day . 46

it was super rainy and gross again today so we had a shop day. the goal of the day was to cut all of the 176 2x6’s that are going to be used as rafter extensions on the roof to be tapered at the end. we started off the day by trying to set up to cut them on the table saw but it would run for all of 3 mins then turn off. then it would not even turn on or sounded like it was killing something on the inside. so we decided that it would be better not to use it and try something different. we then made a jig that we could use the circular saw with. alas though when we went to start we had no saw, so adrain drove to site to pick one up. while he was gone there was nothing to do so we found an abandoned television and watched cartoons. once he got back we finally got to start. we worked on ferrying the 2x6’s from the main room to the table saw room cutting them and then ferrying them back to be sanded. we got more than half done even with all the set backs. tomorrow we will work on getting them finished.
