Install 6 x 12 cross bracing on the truss ends.<br />

And finally, install 6 x 12 cross bracing on the<br />

end bents. I forgot to mention drilling all the<br />

holes for cross bracing and stretcher rods<br />

ahead of time. Carefully <strong>com</strong>e up with a<br />

drilling plan so you all that before everything<br />

is assembled.<br />

Install #2 x 56 stretcher rods between the<br />

bottom chords. Use nuts and washers on both<br />

sides of the bottom chords.<br />

Well, that’s it. Ready to install on the pike.<br />

While they look <strong>com</strong>plicated, they are not<br />

difficult to do. Every dimension cut was taken<br />

on the band saw. A drill press and a hand drill<br />

were the only other power tools. There were<br />

no tricky or hidden steps. All hardware and<br />

materials easily available.<br />

Thanks to everyone for their kind word and stopping by for a look.
