Carport Construction p2

The basic structure of the Carport is complete; now I just need to order the roof tiles to match the house and a few days without rain to install the pine ceiling. All the exposed Oregon Pine has been painted with a non-stain wood preserver. Ethan, posing for the camera, provides a good reference of scale.

Carport Construction

I took advantage of a short break in the rain to begin construction of a carport. The roofed parking area will span 8 meters wide x 6 meters deep - ample space for two vehicles. The carport will also double as a nice shaded area over-looking our swimming pool during the hot summer months.
