Install (2) two 2x4-6' boards as tie plates across the sidewall with the double doors. The second
2x4-6' board will need to be cut to fit against front gable plate. Use 10d sinkers.

Now that the front gable is installed, remove the 2x4s used as wall braces from the front wall
and use them for tie plates on the opposite sidewall. Cut one of these 2x4-6' in half and install
one 3' piece against back galble plate.

Next install a 2x4-6'.
