What happens here
Cut the marked notches into the 4x4 support posts. First, use a circular saw to make several parallel cuts along the marked depth of the notch. Then, use a reciprocating saw to cut out the remaining wood, creating a clean, flat shelf for the outer rim joist to rest on. The video shows this process in detail.
Goal: Create shelves for the outer support beam
