Spent an hour building a jig to measure the cabin post heights (and in the future flex the cabin roof over). After church Dane and I cut a template for the roof curve and used it to mark the posts and trim them to height.
Seemed to come out pretty well.
The designer specifies a 6'5" interior height, but notes that you can increase it a little for more headroom. That amount seemed good down the centerline, but with the roof curve, it seemed like it would be a little low standing at the sides (drivers seat), so we increased it a little. Not drastic, but I think it will be helpful.
