Great comments. Let me see if I can figure out how to post a picture.

Here is a Jpeg of the existing garage area: I figure bents for both ends, and one somewhat in the middle between the two front windows. I am thinking 8X8 posts.

Please let me know if you can see it? I am really interested in why you say "I think turning a non TF into a TF could be the hardest thing to do in TFing."

Thanks
Mike
