We love it going back and finding all the old ones doing a great job hope one day I’ll get down there and meet you and the kids my wife is in a chair now she fell and can’t walk now So keep going be safe
Yeah I think we’ve come along way since then. Glad you’re going back and watching the old ones as I do from time to time. Hope you have a great week ahead
I just found your channel and have been watching on my computer. I bought a saw mill that should be ready for pickup in February. I am going to try some timber frame construction using wood from my property as well. I have an orange Kubota mx5100 and love it. Your hacks for that are something I'm going to do. Especially to the box blade. Thanks for all your time and dedication to this.
Thank you, teacher, for laying out the technique of assembling the quadrants and leveling them to the floor. I would like to see you master as I stand the pillars on the concrete. very kind to enzeñar., from Chile🇨🇱 a big hug.
I L❤VE your building's! I have been looking at them for a year now. I hope and pray to be able to have one someday!! It's a dream right now and I want to make it a goal somehow. Y'all are hard worker's and your building's show that. Thank you!! Julie from Missouri. (Midwest MO.)😊

I'm starting to learn. I have experience in carpentry but I just now entered to the timber world, seems to me that once you master the joints, it's pretty fast paced, once you have the jigs that is what I'm missing, for my router. The chisels I already have them good, I've been sharpening them and Japanese knives with whetstones for a decade. Thanks for sharing this video
thanks guys for the great video and for sharing your beautiful project. I love it that a father and son are working together on something like this. Hopefully my 12 year old and I build something as beautiful one day. Blessings on you guys
I love working with the old tools in the old way. That being said, I appreciate your use of ratchet straps and cutting your mortices with a router, etc. Our ancestors were just men trying to get work done, and they used tools and architecture that was state of the art at the time. They would have cut their mortises with a router too if they had one available. Thanks for the video.
Agreed! Hand tools are cool and all, but like that's a BIG job anyway. I guarantee you old Jedediah Springfield would've killed for power tools -- lol ;-)
Nice video, nice work. I'm about to start in on a porch that consists of 8x8 x 10' posts and 3 20+ foot 8x8 beams with pegged scarf joints to make a continuous beam. I have to rig a block and tackle lift up with a simple gantry tied to the posts so I can lift the beams by myself. When I saw your gantry on the Kubota bucket my first thought was 'Hey, that's cheating'. Nice system, sure makes life simpler. 30 years ago I showed up at a roofing job with a japanese saw, the main contractor laughed at it till I showed him what it could do flush cutting a 2x4. Cool to see it used here. Tough to beat the right tool for the right job.

saludos desde el salvador greeting from el salvador I 've recently done a cabin in front on my house with metal but any way I 've got many ideas from your good job
I’m curious as to why you only use one tie down bracket at the base of each post? You could easily add a second one on the opposite side using the same horizontal threaded rod as guide for placing it and then use the same threaded rod to fasten both tie downs
You really should be draw pegging as there really isnt any force pulling the shoulder of the tenons tight.I can see the structure moving as you are hitting the pegs in. it really should not be moving like it is in some parts of the video. The posts should have slate under them so the moister does not wick up and the anchors should go at least twice as far up the post. the post bottom will rot out and that bolt wont do anything. These are small things but all really important. But the biggest issue is the lack of draw pegging and using tiny dowel instead of big tapered split oak pegs to draw the joints tight. This method is used so that in the future if the building moves at all you can just tighten it back up with a few taps on the pegs as they are tapered.
Hey, Thanks for your comment. I have already ordered aluminum plates to go under the post. They were treated but I have wondered. Going to jack it up a little and will take care of that. I have watched numerous videos on your channel and have loved them all. Thanks for sharing your life and your thoughts.
@@SmokyMountainOutpost Great, that will make those post last much longer as wood hates to sit on concrete even durable wood. I always put wood on none wicking stones or slate. Glad you enjoy the videos :) look in to draw pegging as it would make the structure 10x stronger and when all the wood dries and moves you have the ability to tighten it back up.
@@KrisHarbour -- The tapered 'draw pegging' sounds KEY. Is that why some post and beamers leave the pegs protruding out of the beam an inch or so 'proud' instead of cutting them off flush -- so they can pound them in more when things get loose in the future to tighten it all up? Also -- does the peg oak matter (white oak, red oak -- I guess whatever oak you have?) Other hardwoods okay for the pegs too...? I'm going to build one of these buildings eventually -- looking for every tip I can get. Love it!
Johnny Rockets yep, that’s it. Leave them long and tapered so later on if anything moves you can tighten it back up again. It’s green timber so it will move a lot so it’s quite a key design feature.
Great video!! what are you using attached to the tractor bucket? did you make that yourselves? If so id like to see it close up and see what you did! im planning on using a tractor to raise one myself.
Incredible build! You're doing amazing work. At 7:45 I have a question: Can you really put a wooden post like that directly onto the concrete? Don't you need a moisture barrier of some sort so the wood doesn't soak up water from the concrete? Especially the exposed fiber of the end of the post? Thank you for the video and hopefully you, or somebody else, can answer my question. Cheers :)
I must admit how much I admire your skills..and the process is somewhat romantic I guess in wood folklore..but with the amount of time and labor I just wonder why?

Question; I know that burning will preserve the wood when going in earth, just wondering why the char on the upper parts, is there a secret I should know about?
I was looking into learning how to frame properly, I'm hoping to be able to build my own house. I've recently discovered this method of framing and it seems to be the most solid way of doing things. Comparatively, would you say that fewer pieces of lumber are used overall?
Welcome. Well, it depends on how you build it. I plan on building 2x4 walls (standard) between the posts you see in the video. Since the post are 7x7 you will be able to still see the frame. This is akin to German style architecture (exposed beam). If you use horizontal framing to place say, board and Baton siding (barn style), then yes. Some have used 2in styrofoam panels and placed sheet rock over that. There is a lot less “stick framing involved there. Also, the average double headers over doors and such are eliminated with the beam structure. You can google comparisons on timber and stick framing to see all the pros vs and con that may exist. I will tell you it takes longer, but is “bullet proof”, lol.
@@SmokyMountainOutpost I'll take the time, the results will be worth the attention. Stick framing just doesn't have this kind of stability. I'm looking to build in Oklahoma, so tornadoes can always be a possibility. I'm really enjoying your channel, I'm paying attention to everything. Y'all take care and stay safe out there
I lived in West Texas for ten years and know what you mean. I think you would have fun building it, have a larger skill set when finished and have a much better home structure wise.
@@SmokyMountainOutpost I lived in Midland for a time, wind advisories were definitely common. The more I learn on this, the more I want to do with it. Thanks for the encouragement!
I’m building 2x4 partitions between posts as well to use for interior room layout and for exterior window and door supporting much more used to stick framing so it’s also an easy way I already know how to run utilities through the walls and just drywall over it. But the posts will still be exposed inside to retain the rustic and wholesome look.
I watched video. But for pins to be tight you would not put tenon inside the mortise, first drill a hole on side of mortise, then insert tenon, then make a pin that slides in hole easily, then cut head of the nail and hammer that few millimeter off center of the pin. Then insert the tenon and put the pin with the nail and hammer to make a mark in tenon. remove tenon and drill the hole. When you put tenon inside take new pin and sharpen it a bit so it could pass the off-center hole in tenon - when you hammer it pin will pull the tenon into mortise tight.
Understood. I am familiar with offsetting the holes 1/16 in. To draw the tenon. However the wood I used was green and my thoughts were that the word will shrink around the pins that I bought from the hardware which are dried and will tighten up on the pin anyway keeping it in place And saving me a whole lot of extra work. I also used timber screws for added strength and peace of mind
I HAVE EXPLAINED IN PREVIOUS VIDEOS THE PROCESS OF CUTTING, MILLING AND PREPARING THE TIMBERS TO BE USED. CHECK OUT SOME OF THOSE AND LET ME KNOW IF THEY ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. WELCOME TO THE CHANNEL AND DON'T FORGET TO ENTER THE GIVEAWAYS EACH MONTH.
Thanks for the comment. Not really sure what you mean by a standoff. If you’re making reference to material or something separating the concrete from the post, yes you are correct. This is my first timber frame and I learned later that they would could work moisture from the concrete. So many videos later I actually took a jack jacked up each post and put aluminum plates under the post.
I've made similar hold dows as you. Buckeye state we have to have the hold down plus a 1" metal or plastic between the post bottom and concrete. Why I'm not sure...?? but code here. Prior to knowing that and still today but only at my own house, I just tar the end grain of the post. Good videos keep them coming.
Looking good! Curious as to why no barrier (metal) underneath the posts? Moisture from concrete is going to take affect posts unless that wood is rot resistant species.
Us old timey carpenters would just put part of an asphalt shingle under any post coming into contact with concrete. They're cheap, last forever, and won't rust away like metal.
There is a chemical wood Preservative that is bottle type 1inch in diameter used in electricity pylons. Just drill a hole , insert it, and then put the wood plug that will break it.
Love to be able to create my on home in the mountains but no family t o help.i wood coop with someone if they're all alone and we was close neighbors any taker are you guys in Tennessee
Can u tell me how you attached the metal lift on the front of your tractor bucket. It looks pretty sturdy. I made one with a flat blank from Titan using with single pole. I am planning to use it to lift some trusses in about a month, the the double looks better. I can make anything out of metal and have my own Norwood sawmill. Thanks
@@SmokyMountainOutpost I looked for it and found it. Thanks. I plan to do a smaller timber frame when I get some time, I milled some of the timber already. Just saw your videos, great stuff, I bought a Norwood 3 years ago. Hd 36 its great and does a very good job, I made wheels and the levelers to get it off the ground. I used the mill for my ship lap and flooring inside. I live near you and I could not use the wood for structure since it was not stamped, but using it for the rustic look. Thanks again.
@@joegarage6132 YOU COULD USE IT I THINK, BUT THEY WOULD NEVER ALLOW YOU TO HOOK UP TO PUBLIC UTILITIES. THATS WHY I LIKE UNORGANIZED TOWNSHIPS. IF THEY DON'T HELP PAY MORTGAGE AND HELP BUILD IT, I FIGURE THEY DON'T HAVE ANY SAY SO. I BUILD ANOTHER, CONVENTIONAL STYLE OUT OF MILLED LUMBER AND IT SOLD FOR 225,000 AND WAS INSPECTED WITHOUT FLAW. THEY JUST WANT A CUT SOMEWHERE AND STAMPED FOR RESALE PURPOSE. BUT THIS ONE ISN'T BEING SOLD, LOL.
Never hammer a round stud. Always a square. If the hole is 20 mm, the square pin must be 20x20 mm. Sharpened and hammered in. This solution is perfect and will not let go. round can dry out and become loose over time.
I knew that. Didn’t have time to make them like I wanted to before help arrived. I did good to finish the beams. Wood is still partially green. So I’m sure it will shrink in diameter on the dowel and lock it in. “Saving grace.”
Just found your site. Looks like you are building with poplar logs correct? Would like to come back to N.C. at the old family place and build this type of cabin. Looking good.

Hi Danielle, Yes timber framing will cost more due to the material and skill to put it together. If it was precut, you could do it yourself if you had the means to move the material like we have done and save a lot of expense.
We love it going back and finding all the old ones doing a great job hope one day I’ll get down there and meet you and the kids my wife is in a chair now she fell and can’t walk now
So keep going be safe
Yeah I think we’ve come along way since then. Glad you’re going back and watching the old ones as I do from time to time. Hope you have a great week ahead

That old man strength aint nothing to mess with. Moving those posts all day ain't easy.
lol, you got that right… moving posts constantly. But the “old man strength” I don’t feel 😂 ha ha ha
Cool to see. Like the ingenuity of the added bar frame to the loader to reach higher. Might do that on my bucket as well.
It worked out well. We also have a video in playlist on how we made it. Thanks for watching and have a blessed week

Can you show or tell how you cut those large square mortises? Did you use a chisel to square them as with shallower mortises?
I HAVE EXPLAINED IN PREVIOUS VIDEOS THE PROCESS OF CUTTING, MILLING AND PREPARING THE TIMBERS TO BE USED. CHECK OUT SOME OF THOSE AND LET ME KNOW IF THEY ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. WELCOME TO THE CHANNEL AND DON'T FORGET TO ENTER THE GIVEAWAYS EACH MONTH.
Shouldn't there be a standoff between the post and concrete per code?
Thanks for the comment. Not really sure what you mean by a standoff. If you’re making reference to material or something separating the concrete from the post, yes you are correct. This is my first timber frame and I learned later that they would could work moisture from the concrete. So many videos later I actually took a jack jacked up each post and put aluminum plates under the post.
I've made similar hold dows as you. Buckeye state we have to have the hold down plus a 1" metal or plastic between the post bottom and concrete. Why I'm not sure...?? but code here. Prior to knowing that and still today but only at my own house, I just tar the end grain of the post. Good videos keep them coming.
Does the top of the lumber being black mean it’s treated or is that fireproofing or something?
I burned it to waterproof it and helps with bugs
Looking good! Curious as to why no barrier (metal) underneath the posts? Moisture from concrete is going to take affect posts unless that wood is rot resistant species.
I plan on a tar coating on post, bracket and around the bottom of the footer. The outside also will have a rock wall from footer to floor level.
Us old timey carpenters would just put part of an asphalt shingle under any post coming into contact with concrete. They're cheap, last forever, and won't rust away like metal.
@@bruceparks3124 Thanks for the tip! I'm going to try that!
There is a chemical wood Preservative that is bottle type 1inch in diameter used in electricity pylons.
Just drill a hole , insert it, and then put the wood plug that will break it.
are u guys burning the lumber with torch?
Love to be able to create my on home in the mountains but no family t o help.i wood coop with someone if they're all alone and we was close neighbors any taker are you guys in Tennessee
Can u tell me how you attached the metal lift on the front of your tractor bucket. It looks pretty sturdy. I made one with a flat blank from Titan using with single pole. I am planning to use it to lift some trusses in about a month, the the double looks better. I can make anything out of metal and have my own Norwood sawmill. Thanks
I did a video on that particular thing. Check it out and let me know if you have any questions.
@@SmokyMountainOutpost I looked for it and found it. Thanks. I plan to do a smaller timber frame when I get some time, I milled some of the timber already. Just saw your videos, great stuff, I bought a Norwood 3 years ago. Hd 36 its great and does a very good job, I made wheels and the levelers to get it off the ground. I used the mill for my ship lap and flooring inside. I live near you and I could not use the wood for structure since it was not stamped, but using it for the rustic look. Thanks again.
@@joegarage6132 YOU COULD USE IT I THINK, BUT THEY WOULD NEVER ALLOW YOU TO HOOK UP TO PUBLIC UTILITIES. THATS WHY I LIKE UNORGANIZED TOWNSHIPS. IF THEY DON'T HELP PAY MORTGAGE AND HELP BUILD IT, I FIGURE THEY DON'T HAVE ANY SAY SO. I BUILD ANOTHER, CONVENTIONAL STYLE OUT OF MILLED LUMBER AND IT SOLD FOR 225,000 AND WAS INSPECTED WITHOUT FLAW. THEY JUST WANT A CUT SOMEWHERE AND STAMPED FOR RESALE PURPOSE. BUT THIS ONE ISN'T BEING SOLD, LOL.
?
Never hammer a round stud. Always a square. If the hole is 20 mm, the square pin must be 20x20 mm. Sharpened and hammered in. This solution is perfect and will not let go. round can dry out and become loose over time.
I knew that. Didn’t have time to make them like I wanted to before help arrived. I did good to finish the beams. Wood is still partially green. So I’m sure it will shrink in diameter on the dowel and lock it in. “Saving grace.”
Also, we managed to finish putting it together late on the evening before everyone had to fly home the next morning. Again “saving grace.”
Just found your site. Looks like you are building with poplar logs correct? Would like to come back to N.C. at the old family place and build this type of cabin. Looking good.
Welcome,
Yes they are poplar. I have an abundance of them, and they work up fairly easy. Hope you enjoy the channel.

Are speaking of wood preservative?
Hi guys, I´ve a question. Why the carbonizes wood log is up side? is it just aesthetical? shouldn´t be shou sugi ban on the ground? nice work anyway.
That were all finally burned if you watch all the videos.
@@SmokyMountainOutpost thank you so much for your answer! I´ll watch it. I´m new on your channel. hugs from Brazil!
Please, tell me why don't you use the waterproofing course under the timber column?
I’ve ordered aluminum plating for them. I will jack them up a little and slide underneath.
It will be interesting to see!
Is timber framing more expensive to get done than stick frame?
Hi Danielle,
Yes timber framing will cost more due to the material and skill to put it together. If it was precut, you could do it yourself if you had the means to move the material like we have done and save a lot of expense.
What size dowel and did you make them or purchase them?
5/8
Bought
Is that creosote you're using on the timbers for ground contact?
I burned them
what type of wood are you using for your post??
Poplar
