- As we are nearing the end of this series I'm happy to have completed the raising of the frame! In this episode we look at assembly of the frame and some basics on the process. Also, apparently I grunt a lot when I'm working.

I like the coin tradition.
Great set of videos! Would love to see the finished project
As someone just learning timber framing with a project in mind. I thank you for going into detail all of the joints. I’ve been stick framing for many years but this is totally different.
Great job Jesse! And thanks for sharing and inspiring myself and others to do similar projects! Its been a pleasure to follow along!
Glad to see I'm not the only one who does '12 hours' laters and runs out of steam! Thanks for the vids. :)
Assembled! Congratulations. Looks awesome.
Wooo! Thanks Hugh!
That’s so cool to see the building come together like that. Thanks for making just great videos!
For sure! Thanks for your encouragement throughout the process!
Loved your video series.....I have watched many different videos on timber framing, but I have learned several new things from you and your videos.....I especially liked your information about putting a coin into 1 of the joints.....Have never heard of that before!
Super exciting! Congrats on all the hard work!
Thanks Adam :-)
Just found your channel, I really like what I have seen so far, informative. My goal is to build a timber frame cabin when I retire. I will be looking at all your videos. Oh, and thanks for the Logosol Video review, I had not seen those before but it is exactly what I need.
Looks great Jesse!
Hi, great series! Did the tenons on the corner post lock in the tenons on the sills. ??
Coming along very nicely Jesse. Looking really good.
Hey Dave! Sorry to keep you waiting this long 😂
@@JesseSchutt , progress takes time my friend. 😄
Hi. Are the rafters not connected to the frame, nor with each other? Are they simply resting on the top beams?
And as a general question, I've only heard you talking about weight - is wind (pulling upwards or pushing sideways) not an issue?
Hi Alex - The rafters each received a heav lag screw from the top into each wall plate to keep them in place.
For the project I have in mind I have a local mill that will supply the lumber. It’ll be green southern yellow pine. Do you foreseea problem with that choice of lumber?
Hi! I don't know much about yellow pine but the red pine I used in this was prone to twisting, which is a real pain to deal with. If you get the wood green don't delay on getting it assembled. The alternative (which I have done on a different project) was to oversize the beams, let them sit for a few months and then recut them to size to address any twist that showed up. Best of luck to you!
With that in mind I think my best course of action would be to get the lumber in the fall and cut all joints over winter and raise in spring. Here in SC I can work outside with a coat. It’ll be 12’x16’ with just a roof on a concrete slab when done.
I noticed that you are a good teacher of the framing. Please don’t keep using your chisels as pry bars. It will dull
It looks so much more impressive now that it's standing! "12 hours later"...funny.
