Things are coming together






The final push! I can hardly believe, that we're coming up hard on the end of the project!
We seem to have shorted Jim by about two days for the completion of the interior ceiling. All the parts for the frame are just about done.
Here are the rafters. A simple joint that satisfies the never satisfied engineers, but is also so wonderfully simple that it can be easily explained to timber framers and students alike. And it is scribed and easily removed, a process that has to be repeated more often with all the pieces on this frame than is normal in timber framing. This necessitated an adjustment in approach and standard of finish from all of us.
