On day three, the crew made quick work of the remaining rafters and started on the "ladders" that form the overhangs at the gable ends.

Test fitting the outer board of the "ladder"

Ladders ready to be screwed in place

Today they installed the rake trim and the fascia boards.  Check out that compound bevel where the two meet!  You can also see that the rafter extensions combine with the ladders to create a plane that wraps around from the soffit to the underside of the rake: this will be filled in with bead-board.

Just a few more panels and the roof will be fully sheathed.
