So the crafty DIYer came up with this solution. If I cobbled together a project like this I would have used hangers and had more supports....one under each rafter....providing there was a wall or other means of solid support under thoses, I would deem this a workable setup. And my three stooges jobs over 30 years, though sometimes goofy looking, have always endured. This is just a subjective guess
