I've been a contractor in builder for over 40 years. I built a house in the Southern California desert similar to what you did here. Except for I built every Raptor and hip and Valley on the job site. The house I built had post and beam front and back all the Raptors were six by 12 some of them were 34-foot and somewhere 36-foot with ban sawed tails. The Ridges were 12 by 24 laminated beams the hip and Valley Rafters were 6 by 16 Doug Fir. I used a three and a half inch dado saw that ran off of 220 volt. For the seat cuts And I used a 16 inch Makita for the ridge cuts. The exterior walls were 8 to 10ft in from the post and beam and they were full length to the bottom of the Raptors and they were two before constructed double outside walls 1 ft apart so all the windows and doors had a reveal to them. It was a gable roof with two bastard hips to curve it around. The roof was 2 by 6 shiplap the Raptors were on 6 foot centers the tuba six we had to put 3H plywood then three and a half inch thick styrofoam aluminum backed 4 by 8 sheets then half inch plywood over that to make a sandwich the 3/8 plywood over the 2 x 6 was there for spacing cuz we had to nail off the half inch plywood was 20 penny nails I had to specially ordered nail guns that shot 20 Penny ring shank nails. The guy that owns the house owned a Foundry in Los Angeles and he made half inch thick castings solid brass for the connections from raptor to Ridge to the beams outside the saddles on top of the posts everything had a duck head on both sides of the brat connections he also made Flat solid brass for the Raptors that went into the hips and valleys for the connections. Every interior wall of the house had to be built after the roof was on because they went all the way to the ceilings. It was all built on a concrete slab but every room and hallway kitchen had different levels you would either step down in or step up 6in throughout the house. It was a massive 12000 Square ft house on a man-made lake called Silver Lakes in the Mojave Desert the closest town was Victorville. The guy I dealt with the main Builder on this particular house required that me and my crew washed our hands throughout the day cuz he didn't want any fingerprints or grease smudge on any of the Timbers. I have one question for you why didn't you stain and varnish or lacquer the post and beam construction of your house before you erected it. The painter oiled and lacquered everything before we started cutting and notching.
This is real framing Not that stupid garbage so called Smart framing cheap ass contractors that cut corners everywhere My respect for this TIMBER FRAMING CARPENTERS
Hi George, Not actually regular OSB flooring. We use a engineered product called ”Stable edge”. This product has a great warranty and very user friendly. Holds up to water, and no edge sanding is needed. Check it out! Thanks for checking out out videos. 😊
I built a shed with these plans from Ryan [ Details Here?> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ] . The instructions were clear and easy to implement. Even a novice can be able to build fast using this plan. I'm happy I bought the plan. It also saved me much cost.
Hi, if we raise square frames 5 by 3 meters with thickness and width of boards 5 by 30 cm, (for building a cube cabin), would the lap joints of the frames be stronger with bolts or screws? And would there be necessary for extra corner strengthening triangular bars ? ( the cabin is planed to be made with 10 such frames with a distance of 70 cm in between, conected up and down with 70 cm pieces of the same board)
2:20 There goes that tenon.
lol, glad I'm not the only one who saw that.

Very fine woodwork (from the factory) and designed in the 1800s. Today half of the volume of material would be needed, but it's a matter of taste.
Beautiful Timber Frames
That flight of American white pelicans at 6:18 was awesome to see!
There is a market for timber framing homes. I would use "Maffell" tools.

Beautiful designs guys and the pine you use looks just as effective as the oak we use here in the UK - nice work !

Somehow this video reminds me of the Ark building from the movie "Evan Almighty" ;))
Machine made - all CNC woodwork.
Did that guy really hammer on the tenon? wow, must be hired right from labour ready.
Starts with shirt off, that was the first clue
вот это точность соединения!!!
GREAT !
We should to protect a wood first.
good job! :)
Raise it like they did 300 years ago.
300 years ago a timber frame was raised piece-by-piece not as entire bents.
super super
💣
OSB flooring? That's rez housing.
