This morning I took my German friends to the airport at 5.30am after a most wonderful and inspirational 2 weeks. Michail and Hannes helped me to build a new timber framed wood store, the process was a real eye opener. Timber framing involves hard and skilled manual work, an eye for beauty but also a remarkable amount of careful planning, geometry and precise measurement. The vast majority of the work goes into preparing the timbers and making all the joints up on the ground then in just a few hours the frame is all put together, I am absolutely delighted with the finished frame, Nicola did a youtube video on raising day.
