Great work, the oak frame guys that worked on my place used loads of ratchet straps to pull things tight before drilling the peg holes. They used a short softwood block under the strap to protect against the strap pulling on the corners of the frame and rounding the corners. Another thing is they drilled a 6mm drainage hole at about a 30⁰ incline into the mortice from the outside, so any water that does get in may escape freely.
Yep, straps work great, unfortunately they are all stored in our campervan which is not here at the moment. May grab a couple more if needed though. No need for drainage holes on this one I hope but perhaps for the gazebo build this summer.
@@TheRestorationCouple 👍 The drainage holes are required on exposed frames where the joint may collect water, so your blind mortices into the sole plate for example. However if you're cladding the outside it probably isn't needed.
It always amazes me what you can complete in 1 day. It’s incredible, particularly given the adverse weather. You are putting the rest of us to shame! Keep it up
That chainsaw mortiser is awesome! I almost want to build a shed now using a timber-framed structure just to have an excuse to buy a chainsaw mortiser! :-P
Good to see your keeping up with the editing really well (from when we had snow, only just disappearing now) and love the fact the you decided to go so chunky, looking really great.
How did you solve the issue with the blocks overhanging in the end? It looks like your beams are flush on the inside, but in the vid where you fit the cladding, with a 25mm roofing batten they're also flush on the outside?
I’m loving this build, and truly inspires me to give it a go too. If only I had the space. I’m still dreaming of a workshop which is larger than a single garage!
Looking really good Tim, don't think you will regret putting the two extra braces in. Hopefully on the next video the weather will be kinder to you. Keep up the good work.
I know this is a reasonably personal question but can I ask if this is your full time job? You put out so much work just in this while I struggle to do much around my job and kid. Keep up the good work; properly keep me motivated! Thanks!
An honest question. Does it affect the wood if it gets soaking wet? Any risk when the wet wood drys out it might deform? I have often seen roof timber laying around a building site getting soaking wet.
Yes, dry graded timber can cause issues if built with wet, especially if studwork as when it shrinks the next season it can pop screws through plasterboard. This timber is freshly felled green so a few days or weeks of rain is not going to change its moisture content and ideally it will dry out slowly to avoid to much cracking and movement rather than sticking the heat on max as soon as the walls are up.
Great job Tim. A new series idea for you, once the workshop/future house projects are done, why not run a series going around the UK helping people repair/fix dodgy jobs done either by tradesman or DIYers - call it “TRC SOS’. If you decide to run it can you come to me first 🤣
Seems you have learnt like I have that when doing DIY if the question is "should I bother with extra work to make it look nicer?" the awnser is always "yes"! Otherwise every time you walk past it for the rest of your life you think "I wish I had done that better" 😀.
Ignorant question (I know nothing about construction!); but when drilling the holes why not have all the pieces inserted and then drill through everything in one go to create the peg holes?
Good question. The idea of marking the hole on to the tenon and then drilling that is you don’t want them to line up. By offsetting slightly the peg will pull the joint tight. Perhaps I’ll do a demo joint in a future video. 👍
What’s going on! You have snow and you hardly ever have snow. And to make it worse we in the north of England haven’t had any, not even cold weather. We are normally in about one foot or more snow by now and my cousins have a heart attack if there is as much as a sprinkling of frost, the weather is up upside down
You have an incredible work ethic buddy, talk about making hay while the sun shines, you make hay all weathers. Incredible work. Well done
He would prefer Hay in all weathers - that timber frame is not light!

Yeah there is 150mm of wall build up to sit outside this frame so it should all stay dry and cosy. 😀
Great work Tim. You were right the first time Iconic. When it's all done and you do more workshop videos you'll see that every time.👍🏻👌🏻
It always amazes me what you can complete in 1 day. It’s incredible, particularly given the adverse weather. You are putting the rest of us to shame! Keep it up
Great work as always Tim, I’m looking forward to the rest of the build.
Mallets mallet ! That is one big mallet. Keep going Tim your an inspiration!
Looking lovely. Excellent job as per usual.
That chainsaw mortiser is awesome!

Mighty work Tim, its going to be a structure that will give you a good workshops for the future.
Amazing work! Beautiful and timeless!
Stunning, coming along beautifully 👌🏻
I’m loving this build, and truly inspires me to give it a go too. If only I had the space. I’m still dreaming of a workshop which is larger than a single garage!
Looks so satisfying seeing it all come together! 👍
Hi Tim. I agree...I think the extra braces across the top of the studs will make a fantastic background to future workshop vids.
Congratulations only one wall done and it already looks bl__dy brilliant ! Keep going.
Wowsa! The right decision with the additional braces.
Timber framing is fascinating to me so this was a great watch thanks Tim. Regards Jim.
Patience of a saint! Quality work 👏
Great video yet again. The leaf blower is a handy tool for snow removal 👍🏻
Inspirational work. Such quality and precision 👌
Tim, you’ve been spoiling us with these videos the past few months 👌🏻
@Steffan Griffiths Shwmae bachgen
@Steffan Griffiths Diolch. Ti hefyd.
fantastic job, nice to see a proper joiner at work 👌
Looking good! Did you choose to not place the workshop with an opening on the alley due to regulations?
Your workmanship and commitment is amazing!! One question, do you think it's going to be strong enough! 🤷🏻♂️🤔🤭
Should do the job....
Brilliant corbel-looking pieces.
It is looking really great Tim. Andy U.K.
👍🏻👍🏻...you got snow too...didn’t stay tooo long here in Suffolk 🙋🏻♀️💕🇬🇧
Looking really good Tim, don't think you will regret putting the two extra braces in. Hopefully on the next video the weather will be kinder to you. Keep up the good work.
Unbelievable piece of work.... really coming together (Literally) now 👍
hello, what are the dimensions of the building and wood in MM? you have a nice job
Looking great Tim 👏👌🏻👍
Jeez look at that weather. I’m never complaining about having to do stuff in the rain again; not if you can oak frame in it!
9.44 hi why don't you put a bucket upside down and over the extension lead?. to stop the rain getting to it?.
It’s a weatherproof one. 👍
@@TheRestorationCouple cool, didn't what you to get eclectic shock
It’s weird hearing Scott Brown music without Scott Brown weather
at least Scott brown is a carpenter
Nice job so far👍🏼👌
I know this is a reasonably personal question but can I ask if this is your full time job? You put out so much work just in this while I struggle to do much around my job and kid. Keep up the good work; properly keep me motivated! Thanks!
Tim, Thank you for the clip tonight its fantastic watching this build . Where did you learn to build and design the building its fantastic ? Andy
Just books and videos, etc. 👍

@@TheRestorationCouple Thank you, great answer. The evolving workshop looks superb.
Looking great Tim! How deep are the mortices?
They vary, bottom ones are 3” top between 4 and 6 depending on where they are.
What ear defenders do you use, would you recommend them looking new ones for work
These look like Isotunes Link
The Mary Rose takes shape. . .
"should be fairly straight forward"...... famous last words!
Great job Tim. A new series idea for you, once the workshop/future house projects are done, why not run a series going around the UK helping people repair/fix dodgy jobs done either by tradesman or DIYers - call it “TRC SOS’. If you decide to run it can you come to me first 🤣
Brilliant.
I wish I had your work ethic, it took me 2 months to renovate a small bathroom... and I'm not working.
Respect to you.
Tim looking like Thor with that hammer
Go on Chuck two more in
Timber framing is all about looke too tim good move to put put those extra braces in carnt wait to see it up
I know it’s practical, but the Thor hammer makes me chuckle every time I see you using it
Very very impressive build as always. Also , thanks (🤦🏻♂️) I’m fixated on getting a pro sharp now. 😃
Looks great Tim, but when does Thor want his hammer back?!!
It a long term loan. 👍
Another great video
How many other people were screaming "nooooooo" at the screen when he decided to put in those centre braces? :)
would be interested to see any video you have on the rubber (?) roof and windows of your store / shed.
They are all on his channel
Seems you have learnt like I have that when doing DIY if the question is "should I bother with extra work to make it look nicer?" the awnser is always "yes"! Otherwise every time you walk past it for the rest of your life you think "I wish I had done that better" 😀.
Brilliant video tim. Have you still got the poly tunnel?
Yep, other side of the shed. It’s actually home to turkey, ducks and quail at the moment though. 😂
@@TheRestorationCouple Oh right 😂
Squeeing with the appearance of Thor's Hammer!
Great work, but a chain mortiser for one build $$$$$?
Don't worry it's been used on a couple of other timber frame projects in the last couple of years.
Ignorant question (I know nothing about construction!); but when drilling the holes why not have all the pieces inserted and then drill through everything in one go to create the peg holes?
Good question. The idea of marking the hole on to the tenon and then drilling that is you don’t want them to line up. By offsetting slightly the peg will pull the joint tight. Perhaps I’ll do a demo joint in a future video. 👍
@@TheRestorationCouple That would be awesome for us less knowledgeable folk. Thanks Tim!
Nooice!
I must admit I would have faked the centre braces after the frame was up if you are only looking for a nice backdrop!
Worlds biggest hammer lol. I bet you're glad the roof is done
Epic 👍
Hmm I kinda like the look of the roman numerals scribbled on.....maybe you could make them a permanent feature and have them burned into the wood.
They are carved in. 👌
I need a giant wooden mallet in my life.
Don’t we all!
Will the real Timmy Mallet please stand up!
This guy reminds me of a bald Bear Grills

We are normally in about one foot or more snow by now and my cousins have a heart attack if there is as much as a sprinkling of frost, the weather is up upside down
😂 Just a token dusting, looked more when shovelling. Made for some interesting conditions for blockwork,
Does THOR know you nicked his hammer ?
Noah is looking for some wood working tips.
😂
🥰👍
Wood.
Tim, I think you need braces on the other side of that centre section for aesthetics. Joking 🙃. Another great vid.
😅 No more please!!!
