All joists are now in. Slowly making progress.



I'm sure you just have them tacked in there for now, but be sure to use some carriage bolts to attach the band boards to the posts. Galvanized.

I tied the bottom of 6x6's into the joists by boxing them in on all 4 sides. Going to run carriage bolts thru the top beams like you said. Painting them black before installing.

You know a level doesn't work like that, right?
You have to stand it on edge so the bubble floats.
