Figuring things out a bit more with time-lapse and why it is stopping filming... forgot to turn on airplane mode initially, then my phone was overheating from being in the sun, then I said "OK" near my phone so the google assistant turned off the time lapse... sigh!

Jig to get consistent rafter end angles - no, I don't own a chop saw
I got a little more focused with my time lapses toward the end of the day after having so many problems with them earlier...
Afternoon time lapse 2 - 42s (21m real time)
D assembles, glues up, and screws together the West porch header
Evening time lapse - 2m 34s (1h 17m real time)
OK, should this time lapse be titled...
Cantilevers ROCK!
How many OSHA rules does D violate?
Summary...
D sets up some temporary supports and a cantilever and gets the East porch header in place
D measures the lengths of the posts
D fastens the post mount to the floor joists
Squirrel checks things out
D cuts the first post (off camera) - shows the perfect first cut, then finds it's too long and cuts again
A comes and helps D get the post in place - D adds clamps
D cuts the second post (off camera) - realizes he needs to move some clamps and fasten the mounting plate - then realizes that the bolt for the mounting plate is too long, so decides to all it a day
Off-camera today we started work on the rafters...
D made a jig for cutting the ends to the proper angle
Used the jig to start work on a template from a 1x6x10 - and quickly discovered that I used the wrong scale on my speed square (used the hip/valley scale, not the common angle scale - doh!) and fixed it
Birds-mouth cuts made - actual roof overhang on back of shed
