With respect to the throat, profile, etc., that's +/- what I expected earlier, germane to the earlier horn tuning in development question.  And this seems to suggest that most folks who simply math it and then stay with that result are either lucky, deaf or delusional.

Regarding a "simple"  addition, you will always require at least 5 sides for a "one-wall" addition, and likely some sort modification to the existing structure, too. You will need a foundation, a floor, walls and a roof, and you will probably need a good deal more as well, whether you like it or not.  Costs are lowest in rural areas where the weather is docile and the earth nurtures building.  Cost go up exponentailly as one moves toward and into urban areas, hot or cold areas, earthquake, hurricane, etc. areas.  Fees alone can bring strong wealthy men to tears, and building and zoning codes have been known to cause madness.

If, as you suggest, all is tre's simple, then figure on 50k minimum for masonary costruction.  But don't be surprised if it is not so simple, after all.


Best regards,
