This is one of the projects we have where I work. I don't help with the roofing or sheathing.

Dave,the op, was gracious enough a couple weeks ago to give me a personal course. That next weekend i knocked out all 8 corner braces. Laying out a corner brace just never sank in until dave showed me, and that had always kept me from going forward in timber framing. Now its a no brainer.  8)

Im working on a wood shed, 12'x16 or 18'. My first tf.





Brendon,
Off topic, but....do you race in the area?  Yellow background with black numbers, are you a "B" rider?  Nice projects by the way!

Dave, are those salvaged iron/steel factory windows?  I am intending to do two large fixed steel windows in a project in that style with an arch on top of each.  I may end up making them myself if I can't find anyone to do it at a reasonable cost.
Anything someone can design, I can sure figure out how to fix!
If I say it\\\\\\\'s going to take so long, multiply that by at least 3!

Dave Shepard

Yes, they are. They were supplied by the home owner, so I don't know any more than that. They were blasted and powder coated.

What size timber do they need to yield for your proj
nuts over wood

Dave Shepard

Biggest is 12"x12". We might double up on some of the smaller timbers.

12/12 should be no prob if der straight. I was wondering, back in the70/80 s ther was lot of talk bout local mills having construction grade lumber stamped for framing.  What are u having to hoop through in ma. ?

Dave Shepard

Timber frames don't seem to get bothered much. This is in NY, and the drawings specifically say stamped or graded timbers not required.
