T6 on top...

Had just one Field Lab visit today.....This morning my new friends Bill and Anne came out for the tour. Two more reasons why Texas is such a great place to live. Great folks as usual for all the visitors so far. They brought me a little Agave plant to stick in the ground. Hope they will come back someday.

The last truss was supposed to be the easiest but that was not the case......it was a battle all the way up but that is the LAST ONE! Feels pretty good to get that portion of the job over. UPS brought my all weather housing for the IP cam this afternoon.....200' cable coming tomorrow....then I will plant the sucker in a permanent position for the masses to oogle.... 66,90,37,0

    It is really rewarding to make those projects come together, everyone should experience it once. Totally different from being in a cubicle and team work. I enjoy seeing your progress John, have fun. My project is sawing wood today after I get a new handle for my splitter in town.
    later,

    do you have parts to add between the installed trusses to help support the "roof" material? And when is that install planned?
