      The pegs are tapered, the square part is just the ends that get hammered, they get sawn off. No need to make it round it’s just less work making them this way. Also BFH

      I am interested in your statement, as I am a 3rd year carpentry apprentice on east coast QLD and feel quite disillusioned with carpentry for the same reasons you mentioned. There is no craftsmanship, the materials are harsh and industrial; house designs clinical and uninspired. I think Australia is especially bad for this, being so 'young' and without a rich culture or traditions such as in other countries. But with the push for globalism and the extinction of vernacular architecture we are soon to lose any shred of local identity and instead live in identical homes...

    This structure will outlast any modern construction of this day. A modern home's lifespan is estimated at one hundred years. There are timber frames, (also known as post and beam), structures that are known to be over two hundred and fifty years old, and still fit to be occupied. I have worked in this modern age as a carpenter, cabinet maker, Finish carpenter, framer, and sheetrock hanger and finisher. I have always wanted to take part in this kind of construction. I'm old now and my body is broken down. So, I guess I never will. I enjoyed seeing this. Thanks.
