- In this first video we walk through the process of preparing the sill plates. These are what make up the base of the frame and upon which we will build the entire structure.

A clear and simple instruction on cutting mortise and tenons. Fantastic video. Thank you.
Thank you for such easy instruction. I just got a little lumber mill and I’m so excited to get started with timber and log construction.
Very cool! If there is anything I can clarify please let me know! Have fun with your mill 👍🏼
Jesse I’m really excited about this series. This is already more helpful than other videos I’ve found on CZcams. Your format and instruction is perfect.
I agree. Really well presented. Thanks Jesse!
@@offgridburbia thanks to you both for the kind words!
very clear and simple instructions; many thanks.
Love the support stands, look sturdy and well made
Very good and informative video Jesse.
Will you please comment on all my videos? You are very encouraging 😆
Great vid. I hope to assemble a wooden carport I bought later this month. Yes, the joints etc have been cut out in factory so I need only assemble (hopefully can manage alone) but I plan next year to afdyon a lean to shed to it and that I will do fully with joints etc.
One of tge nicest smells is tge smell of wood being cut or planed😊
Really glad I found your channel, great stuff here
Thanks 🙂
Great series.
Those chain mortisers are expensive.
I was considering getting Milwaukee's little 6" pruning chainsaw and McGyvering a jig/clamp for deep mortises.
Awesome teaching 👍🍁✅
Good job
Looking good! What are you planning to use the shed for?
Hi Nic! - This will be a spot to put our water stuff down by the lake
Do you have a planned frequency for each part of this series? Just want to know when I can be on the look out for the next installment.
I have a good bit of the floor joist segment shot so I'd guess early next week? Maybe Sunday afternoon for that one, and then just as fast as I can crank out the rest. Hoping for a minimum of 1 per week.
Did you film how you prepped the timbers? Are you using two reference faces? How are you keeping the joinery aligned on both ends of the piece?
This is really helpful. I'm hoping to do a small project like this in the summer -- to learn the basics of timber framing. How do you source your timbers? Do they need to be kiln dried? What is the approximate cost for timbers? Maybe an idea for another video at some point :)
Looks like you have some videos about milling already!
Hi Dave - thanks for the comment! I have milled all the timbers using my Logosol chainsaw mill. A local organization often needs trees taken down and I get to use the timber. None of them are kiln dried, in fact timber framing works well with green wood. It's easier to work that way. Take care!
Great stuff, wish I'd had this series when I started my pavilion build (and a copy of Learn to Timber Frame, which I think outlines a very similar build to yours). I would have probably done a through-tenon on the sill joints like you have, instead I did a cross-lap. I don't think it's going to matter in the end, the beams are well-supported at the corners and I did want the beams to slightly extend beyond the corners just for, I dunno, to put plants on or something :D. For the joists I did a strengthened halving, which is also basically a half-lap because it seemed a bit easier (though it was still a heck of a job). I kind of liked that because I could then extend the joists beyond the sill as well and thus get a little bit more floor space and get a cool kind of floating effect - here's how that looks sort of half-finished i.imgur.com/VLeUGnZ.jpeg - I'm pretty much making it up as I go along! But for the rest of my build I will definitely be watching all your vids from this series first.
Could you share what CAD program you are using? Enjoying your videos.
Nothing too fancy! Just an older version of SketchUp. Thanks for the kind words
Really nice instructions... I have some questions. Would you be willing to answer them?
Sure thing - jesseschutt [at] gmail [dot] com
Great job Jesse!! Any chance you would be willing to share the sketchup file?
Sure will! I'll get it cleaned up and will post a video with the info!
Hi, hoping to find those sketch up drawings. Are they posted? Thanks
How do i learn to do timber frame joinery? Any books or channels youd recommended?
What is the computer program you are using to render your building ?
It's called SketchUp and you can use it free online
Jesse I have a question: Are those 6x6 or 4x4 beams you are using?
I just saw the end...Those have to be 6x6 or 8x8 no?
Hi! These are 6x6's but are very likely oversized. You could use 5x5's and maybe even 4x4's (but the design might have to change to six posts instead of the 4 I'm using.)
What type of wood?
Is this green timber?
Yes, it is all green. Some of it has sat longer than others but none of it is kiln dried.
Sorry, but using electric power tools for this is just sad.
Thanks for your thoughts Greeley - It's actually quite common to use a combination of power and hand tools in this type of woodworking.
