Why not start a truss question forum?

[Zeke]

I see so many questions on modifying trusses that it might help to start a new sub forum with a sticky containing the essence of every standard answer given in a truss discussion. Like No. 1 , "Get an engineer." Or, "Call the truss company."

No. 3 - Do a search.

 

[beemerphile]

No. 4 - Stick frame it.

 

[RivennHewn]

No. 5 - Go ahead and cut it

 

[rharman]

No. 5 - Go ahead and cut it

No. 6 - Pray

No. 7...Profit

IMO, I don't see this as a useful subforum. Stickies don't stop people from posting and barely get read anyway.

"Ask the Engineer" thread might be more fun...

I think there's a part missing...

I think there's a pronoun missing...

How do we know if the information is trussworthy?

Stamped drawings in a sealed envelope should work.
