Most are 7"-10" now. Very time consuming doing the tree work and milling myself, but its cost effective. Them cleaned up the carport and moved the fleetside into it.

The poles will be the main supports and they have been in since fall/winter so they can settle. They are solid now. Roof up soon and then some concrete down and I can get the walls up. Will be so nice to finally have an enclosed area to work, but the carport is an upgrade from the yard.
