roof deck ordered

the roof decking material is on order, hopefully arriving next week or early the week after. i ended up ordering milled 2x6 stock from our local lumber company. it turned out to be just about the same price for kiln dried and green material! we're having the 2x6s tongue and grooved and v-jointed. this will make a nice looking wood ceiling. tongue and grooving meshes the individual roof deck pieces into a well connected structure that resists racking of the structure along the roof plane. i ordered lengths that will join at the center of rafters so that joints are well supported and not visible.
