Calamity Kris Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 OMG!! Is that supposed to be a load bearing roof peak or something?
watab kid Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 that is scary beyond belief - where is the building inspectors red tag ? i knew hippies back in the 50s that cobbled chit together better than that .
Michigan Slim Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Looks like what I've found to be 'Fine Amish Craftsmanship'.
Smuteye John SASS#24774 Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Yeah, it's Old World craftsmanship- Eastern European, government-built, Cold War era Old World Craftsmanship.
Red Wolf Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 It looks a blind beaver built that. At least they have a nailing plate on it. Red Wolf

Three Foot Johnson Posted November 22, 2020 Posted November 22, 2020 The tie beams or bottom truss chords will keep the walls from spreading, and the peak itself, sloppy in appearance as it is, appears to have a post under it. Wet it down and pour a quart of Gorilla Glue over it - it'll be fine.
Abilene Slim SASS 81783 Posted November 22, 2020 Posted November 22, 2020 Ok, you stand under it in a wind storm.
watab kid Posted November 22, 2020 Posted November 22, 2020 im with slim , ill not stand under it and i dont see the tie beams or supports that would make me comfortable
