Default Diagramming

I have to diagram the sentence:

"The canoe which the scouts built was too heavy."

I don't know where to diagram "too heavy" since "too" is an adverb and "heavy" is an adjective.

Have a look here- the way they have done 'too quietly' would be the same, wouldn't it? http://userpages.burgoyne.com/bdespa...r/r_k_s014.htm
