Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Finally got the "king joist" installed in our old hot tub room, and then did the layout each direction and put in all the rest of the joist hangers. So all I have left to do before getting plywood and installing it is cut the remaining joists to length and drop them into the hangers and nail everything.

Since the room most likely wasn't square, I installed the middle "king" joist first and squared it off of one wall (3-4-5). I can trim the plywood on the ends to make up for the foundation/walls out of square.
