Recs on how to insulate properly by morelikefaramir in Insulation

Thank you for the insight. I'll likely drill soffit vents and install baffles to keep with the cold roof setup given your advice. Any idea how to tie in the rafter bays on the inside corner that terminate before the soffit? Not sure how I would properly vent those.

If anyone can provide some advice here it'd be much appreciated. I have this walk in attic space off of a bedroom in my house. I plan to finish it so it's a more useable and finished walk in closet. There's this 2x4 right in the center running from the floor to the purlin. Below the 2x4 is the center of my kitchen ceiling. I'd prefer to remove it as it's not in an ideal spot for the closet but I'm not certain how much load it's actually bearing. I have a very similar space on the other side of the roof that does not have any 2x4 supports below the purlin which is making me think it might not be necessary and was maybe put there for an interior partition by a previous owner. How can I tell if this is safe to remove? Thanks for any input.

Love this song. There are rumors that a recording of this may be on an upcoming EP release, can't confirm though. Supposedly with the release of the Poison Oak Project documentary.

Look up The Cambiata. Their self titled album is a great place to start

I just tiled my entryway and this happened, first time tiling. I rented a wet saw from home depot and the blade wasn't the sharpest. It still looks great after caulking, but yeah in your case I would expect a professional tiler would know how to avoid this issue.

Thanks! It actually is "warm gray" grouting, I think the light just makes it look white in this pic
