Shop Prints: Timber Frame Projects to Build Yourself!
We are pleased to offer a series of projects with complete shop prints for those who want to build their own timber frame.
Our shop prints include a timber list, elevations, floor and roof framing plans, bent plans, enclosure details, joinery and peg details and more.
Although these drawings contain more information than
an experienced timber framer would normally require,
it is recommended that you have some experience in
the actual cutting of timber joinery. If you have taken
a timber frame workshop, and have some woodworking
skills, you could build a simple frame. Note, however,
that it takes a while to learn to cut even simple joinery,
and most post and beam frames have several complex
joints.
Click here to view some samples of typical joinery detailed in the shop prints.
There are several good books on the market that explain the most common cutting methods. An excellent choice, in our opinion, would be:
