Roy Castle is watching over you and singing "dedication's what you need". Fair play you really do dedicate your time, heart and soul into your work and it's a pleasure to watch this level of craftsmanship. I'm similar with my career in computer animation and love doing DIY as a healthy and necessary break from the screen. Your videos have taught me so much. They've helped me convert our loft and aiming to convert the garage next year with a carport and large porch. Thank you so much Tim
I loved how you made a crane from a bumper winch and a scaffold. That’s pretty ingenious. I live in Alaska and I’ve built a timber frame greenhouse and woodshed with techniques I learned watching your channel. Thank you
This was such an inspiring project. The smaller scale practice run on the bench/shed (can’t remember which) was a great reminder to me to learn the skills/mistakes on a less important project then go big!
Not your ordinary POS baker scaffold. I'm a carpenter/scaffolder and I have never come across that one. Serves its purpose well here. Very nice work! Beau
My young cousin and her fiance are just beginning their timber frame adventure, building their first home together. He just got a Mahoe Minimax sawmill from New Zealand and they have just sawed their first log for the house.... they are documenting the process on UA-cam and are very excited about it. He just started a timber framing business here in Ontario. I'm watching videos like yours and learning a lot about what they will be doing.
Slamming - time to take on refurbing our treehouse - a mega round wood A frame structure - Bees Bower - at The Goytree. Going to be using some of these timber framing techniques - thanks.
such a labour of love, I don't think that if I had built it that I could then sell it. I think that I would have tried to take it all apart and move it to the farm. Thanks for posting again you can never get too much of your skilled work.
timber frame It's beautiful, very proper But when one wants to do it on the cheap, does it have to be so meticulous? I would have to take a year off to achieve all that handiwork. Ok I'm looking for a do it quick on the cheap video? Recommendations?
Hi Tim I have watched over and over your workshop timber fram build and it is awesome. I am nearing the time to build a workshop for my son, we have laid a 7 x 4 m x 165mm deep concrete slab and I am ready to add concrete blocks on top around the perimeter could I ask you what is the fundamental procedure for the 6 x 6 lumber sills procedure for fixing ( anchoring ) them down. Does it slightly overlap over the outside where it rests on and what method did you do to then fix these in position many thanks Tim. Looking forward to hearing back from you
I have to wonder if the wood planing you performed with the power planer allowed you to use the MIL rule vs Square Rule or Scribe Rule. The MIL Rule is by far the best and it would be great if you achieved that with the hand planing you performed.
What is the name of the square hole saw machine you used? I can't seem to find one that is portable and can be used straight on big blocks of wood. Thanks!
Nice job, true timberframers house all the mortises and tenon joints. Looks better and gives strength and stability. Takes alot longer but is the correct way to timberframe. Life's a learning curve. Good job on your first timberframe.
Yes easy enough to drill out and then fishing with chisel. Depend somehow many to do, I bought the machine used and know I’ll always sell for the same if not more.
I'm curious how this has held up after drying. Did it shrink and create gaps or change the dimensions of the building? I built a shed out of pressure treated lumber and sealed it up real good and installed a window A/C. 6 months later I could see gaps where all the pressure treated wood had dried and shrunk.
I wonder about that too, the wood looked pretty wet while he was building it. I usually leave pressure treated outside for a few days before I use it and it dries up a lot in just those few days.
This was a great project Tim and along with your roof replacement on the house impressive DIY by anyones standard. The manly chisels are awesome too Watching this again as a project when it comes to cleaning up the tenon faces did you ever consider using a large router base, aka Samurai carpenter style? 350mm square 10mm Perspex base. Just wonder if would have sped up the process of clean up? Not a criticism in anyway, just observation. 👍🏻
To be honest much of the cleanup is probably unnecessary as it’s not like smooth faces make it any stronger. Might be an option though, we would a maffell tenon cutter. 😀
Hi Tim. I have found your timber framing content very inspiring and am attempting my own simple structure. Its progressing well so far. One thing i just cant seem to find anywhere on your videos or elsewhere on the internet is what size holes you drill for the pegs. I have purchased the Yandles pegs 19mm tapering to 15mm. Should the augur or equivalent bit be 19mm or slightly smaller to ensure it can be driven home enough? Any advice greatly appreciated. Hope the move is going well. J
Wondering here, what is the budget needed for such a project? With the ever soaring costs of lumber. Though I assume cheaper than hiring contractors to do if for you
My problem with woodworking (in general) is that it doesn't go as fast as sped up footage on UA-cam. If it did, I'd love it. As it stands though, I consider it a necessary evil that I sometimes have to endure. :)
If it helps to give some context, this was 9 full days for me to get to this point. Wish some of that had gone faster as it was a tough gig this one! 😂
@@TheRestorationCouple I think it's mostly down to the fact I haven't done it enough to really know what I'm doing all the time, so when I do do it I get frustrated when things take longer than they probably should or don't go according to plan. As a software engineer, working on the same project for years at a time isn't unusual, so the time should be something I'm used to.
The financial barrier that recurs in timber frame builds is finding a good supply of dimensionally accurate timber of the appropriate density. America has so much its hilarious to do anything but timber frame. But that shouldn't discourage anyone who wants to get into it. If you're careful in matching your boards, construction grade pine 2"x6", you can glue and nail them into larger timbers. It's like a poor mans gluelam. Just be ready to buy a *lot of clamps.
The sheer /cost/ of ‘engineered’ timber frames from commercial wood would allow you to buy all the equipment needed likely more than double over to do it yourself from your own properties trees or even to buy raw logs and make them yourself.

Whats their channel name?
That was very good going for one man. Those big timbers are no joke and I imagine that your fingers would be aching!
Such an endeavor! Well done. Your effort and skill are evident.

Greetings from France
Hey from the USA. Really impressed by the new roof going on Notre Dame. An inspiration for all us would-be timber-framers.
This is the BIG project I have been dreaming of for years. It would work great for a season on my Channel too. Looking for Property now! Nice Job!
good job m8..love your work..amd the fact you did it almost alone:)
The plunging mortis cutter is brilliant!
The ride along was fun as anything
Here I am always thinking how am I ever going to assemble a structure like this on my own and bango boingo Thanks for the video

As much as I considered building it in a way that could be taken apart, I will just treat it as a warm up act and have another crack soon. 👍
That crane thing is awesome! I’m going to have to look into that!
Hell yer, a thing of beauty
Those young ladies handle the 🔨 better than some apprentices I have dealt with. Fantastic job!

Excellent, great work
What a great job and nice to see what you can achieve with just relative small tools!
Well done!
Wow. What an absolutely phenomenal job You've done building that Timber framed Workshop!!
Thanks - you've given me some excellent ideas. Nicely done.
Glad to help
And to think I feel proud after building some IKEA flat packs ! Amazing
Some day I'll be building like this 😁
great video. What is the type of wood used?
Yeah Brother!!
Tremendous job! Well done! I was wondering how you attached the sill to the concrete base?
Hi there, love the channel, what wood did you choose for the frame? Cheers
Good job!!!
That chisel!
Thanks for sharing! Question, why not drill straight through the tenon in one go?
It has to be offset by a few mm, that way when you drive the peg in it pulls the joint tight.
What is the name of the square hole saw machine you used? I can't seem to find one that is portable and can be used straight on big blocks of wood. Thanks!
Can you tell me where you got your logs from and where they were sawn please. Thank you
How can you build such joints, some inside in dry conditions and some outside in rain, wont they become loose when wet parts dry?
Nice job, true timberframers house all the mortises and tenon joints. Looks better and gives strength and stability. Takes alot longer but is the correct way to timberframe. Life's a learning curve. Good job on your first timberframe.
Nice work, bro.
What design software did you use?
Awesome!👍😎🇨🇦
What blade do you use in the skillsaw to cut the insulation panels??
Wow! I loved the drop cut at 08:56. A brave move, executed with confidence. Hats off!
I’m a one man band also but this job needed more hands. Cutest helpers I’ve ever seen.
Could the mortise be cut with hand tools? This chain mortiser is pricey! Or did you get your money's worth then sell it on?
Yes easy enough to drill out and then fishing with chisel. Depend somehow many to do, I bought the machine used and know I’ll always sell for the same if not more.
Could you do somet hing half the size say with 4"x4" fence posts
Bonjour super travail comment vous appeler la machine à chaîne et savoir quelle site le vend
Great!!!
good job

How much was wood and how much was tools?
love the finished frame but wish you had added in sizes of workshop and timbers but great job
All in the main build episodes. 6x5m workshop, 175mm beams
This was a great project Tim and along with your roof replacement on the house impressive DIY by anyones standard. The manly chisels are awesome too

18mm for most framing until you get up to really big beams. 👍

Just sketch up. 👍

Building was around £10k all in, there is an episode on costs.
It’s not an accident that in the old barns, the scarf is over the brace. Not the post ❤
Lol I was trying to blow off the wood dust on my phone to see better that’s how much i get sucked into your videos
what is the band saw you use?
Record power sabre
I can't beleive that you did all this work on this project and then moved to the farm lol
Wow
Hard woods can be much harder than pine
Beautiful family
Dear master
Can i know the name of the wonderful machine? 7:00min
Making hole
Late response, but it's a chain mortiser. All of the tools are in the video description.
Is that American Douglas Fir? How much do you have to pay for that? Shipping must be phenomenal.
No, from forest within 10-20 miles. Plenty on the UK. I did do a cost video but I think it was around £12 a metre or so.
@@TheRestorationCouplewhat kind of wood is it?
Links in description not working right.

Great video , where did you get your pine timber from , most of the timber merchants here (Canterbury Kent) only do oak
Is it pine?
??? What, no product placement for the hand plane??
What size are th beams?
175mmx175mm
And up rights
