  • For the next few weeks i am going to be doing a lot of roundwood timber framing on the top workshop, I though while i was doing that i would make a new how to video in how roundwood framing is done. there will be a video right after this one continuing on with the build on the earthbag workshop.

    I want to let you know that you've inspired me to try some round wood framing in my backyard. I'm nowhere near your skill level, but I would have had no idea how to do any of it without your videos. So thanks, for being inspiring and a good enough teacher to get me going.

    I'm not sure why but there's something comforting to see Sam quietly and diligently making things right in the background. No doubt having a helper speeds the process and saves your back / shoulder from further injury.

    One of those jobs the battery powered chainsaw excels at, especially if you're working in your shop. Won't be stinking up your shop with exhaust and much easier to pull a trigger switch to get the saw running than yanking on a pull cord to start it.

    I never thought about it before, but the way you work with roundwood is exactly how manual machinists work. When we get a cylinder, we have to assume it is not round. Pretty much all operations start by finding center and indexing everything else around that. Kind of the reverse of traditional carpentry

    Thanks Kris. I've been watching your videos and your evolution for years, but I haven't built any timber frame projects yet. I've been too afraid and too confused to try, as I don't have a bandsaw mill, just lots of trees. I live in Washington State, known as the evergreen state! The concept of joining roundwood timber makes my brain sad. So, I'm happy that I found this video of yours. I'd like to start by building something similar to your DIY micro hydro powerhouse, but use it as a garden tool shed. I an excited to dirty my hands with cob as well, so that seems like a great project. Keep up the great videos!

    Great video, revisiting this because I have some reclaimed timbers I am using for a build. They aren't round, but they ain't square either, they have rounded corners, unequal sides and all sorts. Your method is basically a line rule method, but the way you have explained it is simpler than some other videos I have seen and is going to be my go-to method for, I think. For one thing it makes more sense and seems quicker to me to find the centre point and work off that, than to try to mark a regular square on both ends which would be like your "imaginary" square timber.

    There's a very simple inexpensive tool that pipefitters use that I think you would really benefit from. I'm not sure exactly what it's called, but it is a coil of very stiff paper and it has degrees markings all over it. When a pipe fitter needs to make a square cut much like what you do making tenons on the end of round wood, he wraps the tape around the pipe / log and the edge of the tape overlaps, allowing one to Mark a straight line all the way around the cylinder very accurately. The marked angles also allow you to mark out very precise bevels. It's an old tool from the years before plasma cutters, but you often find them at yard sales for $1 and they're all over eBay. I think this would be a fantastic marking tool as it's designed for a cast pipes, it is not necessary for the cylinder to be perfectly round in order to mark a perfectly square line all the way around it. You kick ass at what you do, just wanted to offer my two cents

    Great job but if I may suggest using the same string method down the middle and place a equal piece of wood thickness under string at each end. This will raise string not touching log down middle and be true and center and straight. Slide your square on log up to string and mark center.

    One thing I'd like to ask, not relevant to this video, but your hydro-power. Is there very little maintenance work that you need to do to it and then does it continue to supply you with power for all the building work and general house usage?

    have you ever followed up the flywheel addition to your rotary phase converter? seeing the 3 (?) phase tenoning machine made me wonder. i guess the planer/thicknesser prob still has the highest startup requirements, those cutting wheels on the tenoning machine don't have nearly as much inertia, do they?

    Thank you for the video! Very neat trick with the plumb for the shoulder. I have one question though: This only works, if the centre of the log is perfectly level, right? I am not sure, but I think if one end of the log is higher than the other, you'd get a tilted shoulder.
    This is no criticism, just a curious question since I've trouble lining out the shoulders on round logs :)

Also at 5:48 when you say the log is sitting level, in which way do you mean? Also at 5:48 same question, is that square supposed to be held leveled out from log? Thanks for all your videos! Its nice to see your work.

    i reckon you would be easier marking the shoulders with a pipe wrap/straight cut lino etc
    centre your ends and mark out the super hashtag... then pull back your measurement at the 4 centre points and wrap the lino round giving you your edge to mark the shoulders...
    it may be easier than the square and string weight method?
    im sure you said you used to be a plumber so maybe you already tried and it didn’t work out...just my 10 pence 😂
