An interlocking elongate stackable spacer member for spacing structural framing members. The spacer is elongate having a lengthwise main portion and an offset portion, the offset portion defining a recess on a first side of the elongate body and a corresponding protrusion on a second side of the elongate body. The length of the protrusion corresponding to a desired spacing between adjacent trusses. The spacer can include a first end portion with a first connector and a second end portion having a cooperative second connector. The spacer is configured to interlock with another like spacer by inserting a first projection end portion of the first connector, into an aperture of the second connector, of the other of the spacer and the another spacer, such that the first projection end portion and the aperture of the second connector resist separation of the spacer and the another spacer along the lengthwise axis.
