Turning I-Joists into Rafters: Mountain Modern Home Build, Ep. #47

The I-rafters that I will be using on our home on Red Moose Ranch are NOT ready to go "out of the box!" We have several steps to take to prepare not only the rafters, but the wall plates, too. So much to do! Thanks so much for watching. If you get a second, please SHARE this video with someone who may enjoy it. I'd be honored. Merch!
