To all:
Timber Framing Sales info for the Training Manual.
Over the last 22 years of teaching timber framing, I have taught over 100 students of all ages. I taught in MA, VT, RI, GA, NC, SC, TX, NE, MO, MS, KS, and recently in AR.
During these sessions, I have stated to the students that you have to “use it or lose it”.
Some of them did use it and have created their own frames. Some never did.
I hear all the time that I have forgotten what you’ve taught me. Unless you take careful notes and take pictures of joints during these training sessions, you’re going to forget certain simple things that can help you to succeed.
I have written a “Timber Framing Training Manual”. Part one is now available. Part one is titled “The Bent.” It includes how to lay out and cut all needed joints on a post, a tie beam, and a brace. That is everything in one standard bent.
This 99-page manual contains 31 color photographs and 124 drawings. It is a very in-depth step-by-step guide to how to draw lines on timbers and then cut those joints.
Here is my offer to you. If you purchase this manual now for $99, I will send it to you by email, as it is a pdf file. And you can read it on your computer or tablet or have it printed.
After you have purchased this Part One, I will send you Part two “The Roof System,” after it is completed at no extra charge. And Part Three, “The floor system”, again after it has been completed. When these three parts are done, the price for all three will go up.
Purchase part one now and lock in your price. Send me an email at jrsawmill@verizon.net and I’ll send you some payment method info.
I'm looking forward to helping you with your timber framing journey.
Jim Rogers
