Hello, I would like to steal some space from what is currently eaves/storage space to make my bedroom bigger.
I was planning to run a timber between the 3" x 6" and the wall and then support the purlin with vertical timbers between the purlin and new timber and then thinking I would be able to cut away the diagonal strut and vertical timber that was the wall.
The rest of the floorboards in picture are sitting on 2 x 4's so my logic is that the 3 x 6 is there to support roof so between the wall and the 3 x 6 should be strong enough to hold the roof up :-/
Below are some pictures, my skills in paint definitely could be better.. sorry
p
If anyone is able to give any advice I would appreciate it.
thanks in advance
