Hi Ken! Yes you CAN build in stages.
Pretend you're building a "hay shed" or "pavilion". 8' pole and rafter spacing. Pole barn rafters are WAY heavier than regular garage or house 2' o.c. rafters. The roof purlins will be 2x4 installed on edge. There will be 2x6 angle braces from poles to rafters on both axis. Consult Menards.com pole barn packages for ideas. OR you can design your own with their design program online. It's really fun.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
