    I always considered myself a workhorse and even built my house, but I see three days of solo progress you've done there...offering a deep bow of respect, Sir.

    Funny how every carpenter crew calls your build-up different names you almost have to learn a new language sometimes I'm a retired carpenter and still love to see things come together. I just watch now but it is still fun to watch.
    You never stop learning and it's always something different.

    Got to tell you folks. In the time it takes a crew to build one and half frames, Mr Barron already has three standing. Ain’t kidding. I use to do security work for some of the bigger home builders in central California and they’d come in, stand up a few walls, maybe lower some trusses on…in one day. Jeff’s got Two A frames and a mansion going all by himself…well, a little goob every now and then. Amazing! Preciate y’all!

    For tin hanging day, could you rig a pulley at the ridge, winch from the back side (up over the ridge and down to the working side), rig a jig to grip the tin at the top and just hoist it up and hold? If you have trees pretty close to ridge line, rig a cable above the ridge line with a pulley to ride the cable, and a pulley to winch off of. Then you can roll laterally to your next set. Then you could fiddle as needed without too much weight/danger to get thing aligned properly? It's gonna be sweet!
