I am in the process of cutting a frame myself and have only posted on this board a couple of times, but I must say this is one of the slowest moving DB I have looked at. Every day I check it (sometimes twice a day looking for tid bits of info from the old saws and NADA. I have a post just a few topics down and it just seems to never get pushed down. Are all you full timers to swamped or dead tired at the end of the day to post? I can sorta understand, I for one am in the electrical trade, just doing my own timber frame but I don’t ever even look at DB's associated with my field of expertise. I’ll tell you what, you post a bunch of comments to my comments and questions on that post that just sits there and I will suffer through any questions you have about electrical installations. Deal? Or at least post some bits of interesting info like, "ya I mean this customer is so picky about the frame were doing I almost packed up and walked today when they said that draw pin needed to stick out both sides of the tie beam equally" Just to know that I am not alone in the universe of timberdom as I cut my frame with fear and trepidation would be something! Please don’t take my comments too literally, well ya take em literally, no, just sorta seriously, I need the moral support.
