Knee Walls

My friend Luke and I determined the layout and then constructed knee walls for supporting my sunroom’s glass.   The layout proved tricky.  The curved glass added a weird, somewhat difficult to envision, dimension to the task.  In the end, our final measurements seemed to work.

Just the same, I used screws to fasten to the top plates on the walls.  This will allow me an opportunity to remove the plates and use other materials of different thickness if we are off  by a fraction of an inch.
