lumber prices are staggering.

I wouldn't doubt it if the trusses I had ordered this spring to re-truss my garage would be double the cost right now - if that were the case, I wouldn't have storage trusses.




I wanted to add storage space to my existing garage roof;
it's basically an oversized crawl space built to fit inside the shape of my existing roof;
I put them in beside the old trusses, then cut out the old common truss webs;
I had them built when the shop needed work.
