I'm looking for a source in Minnesota or Wisconsin that can supply handhewn (or simulated handhewn) beams, braces, joists, cladding, etc. in a Tudor style, preferably distressed and aged by fuming and/or charring.

I'm trying to replicate the look of a 16th-century English tavern--the more authentic looking, the better. I'm retrofitting the timber into an existing house, so it would be decorative only, not structural.

Does anyone know of such a supplier? I've seen a similar company in England, but the shipping costs make it impractical.

The plan for the ceiling is finished, and I can supply a detailed blueprint as well as materials list. Ideally, this source would also provide installation and arrange for shipping. I'm open to sources outside of Minnesota and Wisconsin provided the distance does not inflate shipping costs.

Thanks very much.

Devon
