I'm wondering how much experience in timber framing most people have when they start their own timber framing business. Can those of you who have started your own business share with the rest of us just how much experience you had, where you got it, etc? Did you have other construction businesses going before the timber framing? ie were you a general contractor who's gc biz grew into timber framing, or did you just go straight into timber framing. How many people did a formal or informal apprenticeship? Thanks for your input. Chip
