Preparing for the Roof

Tenon cut at the top of each of the wall posts

At the top of each of the wall poles, we have cut a tenon on which we will mount the top plate and the cross beams that will support the roof.  Each of the tenons must be trimmed to size and position to accept the pine stock which is now being cut and moved to the site

Tenon marked for trimming to size and orientation

Tenon trimed square and straight
