yesterday morning, i drilled out holes in the soffit blocking for ventilation. it's been a few days since i cut the rafters; i'm anxious to raise them.

i also calculated the gable wall dimensions and precut the gable end studs to length. i still have to cut their ends at an angle. i'll go back over my calculations today before putting the walls together.

one caveat of this type of gable end detail in the roof framing is that the gable wall must be constructed to accurately align with the rafters, and they're built separately. so we'll see how it goes :P
