Joist Spacers

I measured the joist spacing at the ledger board end, and cut pieces from joist stock for the joist spacers. Dave's Mitre Saw was absolutely invaluable, giving me precision to 1/16"!







I then strung up a line at the center of the joist span (about 6' 6" from the ledger board, and installed the joist spacers with 10d 3" nails, alternately staggering them on either side of the ceter line.
