The Main Frames Up!

This is the roadside view.  The garage slab in front will be stick-frame not timber frame.
This is the east side view.  The Mom's Suite will be connected to it soon.
These timbers vary from 8x10 to 8x8.

These are two of the bents on top of each other.  First they had to put them together...
The team assembling the bents.
This process took the entire day!
The view from below the slab
Notice the camper in the background.  Now that's perspective on how big these timbers are!
