Framing The Roof Alone! OFF-GRID Stone House in the Woods, .

Hello everyone! This is the second part of the series about the restoration of an old and abandoned stone house built in the 1950s. After preparing for the following works in the previous video, my first and most important task is to build the roof and protect the building from further deterioration. So I will show you how I made a wooden frame for the roof of my stone house in the forest off-grid. I intentionally left the old wooden beams that were hand-hewn by my ancestors because they are oak and so hard that not even a nail can be hammered into them. Therefore, you will see how I made a wooden structure by attaching it to the existing oak beams to get a quality preparation on which I mount the roof in the next part of this series.
