Building an extension to cover my LT30. The Norwood I had worked OK inside the shed I
built for it, walking on the right hand side and loading logs on same side, but with the  Woodmizer
I needed more room on the left side so I set it up on the outside of the shed with not enough
overhang to cover it.


I built the shed to run water long ways from left to right and wanted the extension to drain to
the front so I cut some 2X's on an angle to give me a level ridge line for rafters and then put up
a steel beam supported by my main beams and extended it out for the center support:




And using long beams on the sides  attached to the main posts and supported by bracing: (I will add stronger
bracing):








Ready for the metal:
