getting closer I finally got the side porch on , though a had to make a few compromises the look is the same I think.
as you can see in photo the deck is built to last but the roof is a cobblers dream. looks like the roof and supports are unpainted . now for my build.
I built it a little bit more substantial than the original , it looked like the posts are 4 by 4 I made them 6 by 6 for handling. the deck supports will be mostly buried when put on layout.
still looks like a stiff breeze would take it out, I'm going to leave it with a unpainted look . next is the kitchen side porch it was built to last .
now to move onto the roofing.
