How to stabilize the cantilever is a tricky business, you can add a few posts to the other side for ease of stabilizing, but keep it to the minimum to maximize the working area. You can also look into shoring product, such as "Strong/Prop Boy", for ideas. | |

Regarding the gable end wall, so there’s a post (or multiple posts) directly under the wall, pushing up a beam perpendicular to the wall, with some diagonal bracing, but I can’t quite understand what the other end of the beam is connected to? | |
