You got a link for that glass?

Ahh that make sense now. Thanks for the very good explanation.

Anyone know what these are for? Everyone is getting off track on the rafter stuff so I got more pictures without the odd framing. This is not my house but new construction I see in every house in NC.

The diagram worked!! I will save and print this out for future reference.....I'm not getting any younger. Thanks ycgoat
