Building Attic Trusses pt 1 garage build diy ep 14

Building attic style trusses for the garage / shop project. Diy homemade attic truss rafter build for my garage. Sometimes it's best to build it yourself. I used plywood gussets, PL glue, and ring shank twist nails. It was a lot of work and a big undertaking for me but when I was quoted around 12k for trusses I did the math and saved about 5k total by doing it myself. A wise man once told me when facing a difficult huge project, the way to eat a elephant is one bite at a time. So that's how I tackled this was doing the knowns and figuring out the unknowns as I went. It helped that I built a lot of trusses with my dad back in the day but I had never done one this big and heavy being a attic truss.

This is a new series on my diy 32 x 56 garage - shop build. I want to show you how to start building a garage or shop from the very start of just having a empty lot.
