For this part of the roof, I had to remove the old roof framing to put in the new stuff. It was pretty sketchy cutting out the framing that was under me, especially since I didn't really understand how the forces where going on since it was done oddly.
But at least now I have something to stand on while I do the other parts.
All the old roof is off now
Since I used regular joist hangers, I decided to cut a birds-mouth in each, and then add a screw with a large washer to keep the rafters from splitting over time.
I wasn't really sure how I wanted to handle this part, but I guess this should be fine.
On this last part I was able to leave the old roof and build the new one over it which was cool. In a way it was in memory of my neighbor who did on his house a few years before and passed away last week from covid. We miss you John 😢
