    A parting look at the main posts with half-lapped horizontal 4x4's for the door opening and roof framing. The diagonals were half-lapped onto the roof frame (see KC - 20) and lag screwed into the main posts.

    KC - 20 Finishing the Job

    The center post was installed and the frames installed -- clearance was less that 1/8" and they actually fit! Because of some minor warping in the PT wood, I used construction shims to insure the frames stayed square as they were locked in with 3'' deck screws.

    KC - 11 Finishing the Hinge Mortise

    Note the Edge guide is utside the frame and 1/4'' bit is inside -- this means a hard-to-control ''climb cut'' for that last inch or so. Obviously, I'd have been better off cutting these mortises before the frames were assembled, but I pulled it off with only one minor slip that cut into the...
