Wait - that's not a load bearing stud!

I'm not sure how exactly this happened, but the whole roof section was being held up by a single 2x4, which was termite damaged and cracked severely. The one on the left is holding the roof up, the one on the right was pulled out by hand after this picture was taken.

We pulled that stud out by hooking to it with a chain and pulling it out with my dad's S10 (Same one I used to haul the Saturn.)



This section is being held up by nothing right now... it's just there. Damn it.
