Timber Frame!

I can't keep up. Got behind with the posting in the last two weeks and a lot has happened! 

Mainly and most exciting is the timber frame was raised! 

First "bent" going into place. That little triangle at the top is where a wee little loft is going! 

Next bent floating into place:

Cross beams connecting them:

West bent going in:

Last major cross beam going in; then all the "purlins" and various connectors, "haunches" and loft pieces still to come:

I took lots more of the "finished" naked frame; more pics to come.

Also walls are already up around the frame and garage is mostly built so we've nearly got a roof on it! 

But now I'm headed out to the site to put a teensy bit of "sweat equity" into the house.  We're staining the tongue and groove wood ceiling that gets installed before the roof panels go on! 

Here's a little Marlin to leave you with:
