    It's so nice to see the delight in your face Tim when you get all that framing up. Well done. You've turned me into an armchair builder. Not a builder of armchairs, but you know what I mean. Enjoy that day off - I'm so impressed by your ingenuity and work ethic.

    Been following your videos for a while.
    I'd been planning a workshop build for about 18 months and got time to build my own shop during the lock down (about 30sqm) and I absolutly love it... But now I'm wishing I made it how you've made yours!
    Honestly, as someone who has done what you are doing, it is seriously good. Commendable work. The prep of each of those beams is huge. Organising the deliveries, sourcing the wood, the prep work in sketch up. Hours and hours of work. With the ability to pull it off as well; it's very satisfying to watch.
    You will enjoy every second in that building, I do in mine and it is not at that level at all.
    I filmed all of my build but have thousands of gigs of footage to go through - do you think doing a youtube series on it is worthwhile? (so hard to fit time in for editing!!)

    Nice job, that timber is going to look really cool inside the building when it is clad. That jig you made is similar to one used by boatbuilders when making wooden masts. A mast gauge has two pencils and will Mark the side of a square timber so you can plane off the corners to 45degs and will cope when rounding a tapered mast. Look forward to seeing the roofing sheets. Andy UK

      I had it run past a SE friend who agreed it would be fine so just beefed it up a little to be sure. Main issue would be deflection from its own weight which was worked out to be something like 4mm, It had a slight crown so with that up it should be ok. The roofing is only 10kg/m2 which is pretty low compared to other options.
