First small steps towards some roof work I need to do to make it easier to get at the wiring over my bathroom. Today's job, which was based on not a whole lot of time, was to get a strut put into place to support the rafter I plan to cut. I managed to get it measured and cut (angled, to support the rafter as effectively as possible), then screwed into place under the rafter. I started to cut the rafter and it appears not to be bearing much, if any, weight. So next time I get chance to be in there I can cut the boards away from above the rafters, screw through the rafter into the top of the strut, and then cut the rafter out completely.
