In this one-week class we start with raw lumber, and in five days cut and raise a 24' x 24' timber frame by hand. The days are spent in one of our two teaching facilities designing, cutting, and raising a post and beam frame. You will learn to select, use, and care for a complete set of timber framing tools. We have spent years curating the perfect tool kit with the highest quality tools to last a lifetime, that kit is now included with the course. After the sharpening workshop you'll be able to shave with your chisels and slick.
In five short days, you will turn fresh lumber into a carefully crafted house frame and leave knowing how to cut and build your own. Tools are now included with the price of tuition. You will also receive the cut sheets for this structure.
