  1. Scott, Not using roof blocking. Using the Lookout to the fly rafters and raising them up 1 1/2". Only drawback is they have to be done individually and it is a slow process ,but I have done a couple metal buildings and garages in this way Waitin for the snow to melt,Ken

  4. Glad to see this thread.I was thinking about a pad and stylus but after reading these comments on the subject I think I will put it off awhile. Rod we must have started about the same time.I started with 3-d home architect and moved up to chief ver.4. A great week to all,Ken
  5. In our area these are refered to as purlins and are used to attach metal roofing. What I do is ajust the roof blocking used to tie the fly rafter to the trusses to the space I want the purlin and raise it in the dbx to ajust it to sit on the rafter then drag it the length of the building. I would think a similar method could be used to get the desired nailers under the truss system. Hope this is of some help. Have a great week,Ken
