I guess it time to build a connecting girt frame, to continue some tradition, this will be my nest frame design.
Last night I came to a realization the CG frames are just English Tying Joints with out the continuous top plates. just lower the plate and use a straight post. Much the same way the dropped tie was used to make the bents go up rather than the long walls. In a time scheme these two systems seem to have developed around the same time?
Raising large top plates can be done via gin pole by 2 people, and even one. 15 does make it quicker and easier but not necessary. More....Tim
