Walls being built399 viewsWe started building the garage on the driveway. This picture was taken while working on the walls. We used a pressure-treated 2x4 sole plate which will rest directly on the ground, and 2x2's for the wall framing. 2x2's were used to help keep weight and costs down, and becuase they should be more than sufficient for this use.

Two more frames389 viewsWe set the frames outside after each was built to free up room in the garage. The Timber Bilt kits actually go up pretty easy. They have a unique bracket system for piecing together the larger timbers, and most of the rest of the assembly is done with some special lag screws and coated deck screws.
