[Shop-talk] reinforcing roof joists

[Mullen]

Oh yea, I was originally going to mention the possibility of an "A - Frame"
to hold thing up.  You could buy one like this:

from harbor freight (they put it on sale often).

Or you could just make you own out of some 4x4 posts and either a nice 4x4
post across the top or better yet, a steel I-beam.  Then you wouldn't have
to worry about the roof...
