I was just thinking today about working with rough, irregular sized, hewn timbers, like I have had to in the past to create an accurate reproduction of an existing building.
I was just wondering if there are some of you that would take up the challenge, if the opportunity came your way!
The work order would read something like this
-timeframe, 2 seasons -find a suitable example (would be specified) -create a working set of drawings or sketches, and have them approved -find timber of similar qualities and type -put together a work team of qualified personnel -hand hew the necessary sticks, and then using proper methods create the frame -put together a larger group to raise the frame historically correct methods -finish the exterior -finish the interior (both as per drawings, sketches and photographs) - all work to be of high caliber, and follow directions of site supervisor -work to meet safety standards (as much as possible), safety briefings a must
