Don't try this at home, kids.
Not sure which is most depressing, the pieces that were left there but just cut, or the ones that are missing completely.
The trusses were cut so those pieces fit in just nicely, so when they went missing, it also created a nice weak spot for the wood to start splitting. I guess if it's stood up for the 40+ years since that second floor was added, it will stand for another couple weeks. Still, I feel better now that temporary bracing is in place.
On the bright side, three of the trusses still have a tie rod in the center.
And look at that nice light coming in!
