Timber Framers Guild Forums General General Forum Questions timberframing workshop

Greetings, New guy here. I have been a carpenter for going on fourteen years now, and I have never experienced timberframing. So, to broaden my horizons a bit, I am looking into taking a class at Yestermorrow. Specifically, A timberframing workshop in September with the instructors, Steve Amstutz, Nancy Bernstein, and Mike Peabody. Just looking for some feedback from anyone who has taken this course, OR if anyone has any other recommendations for timberframing schools in New England. Thanks........

Yestermorrow is a good timber framing school, I've been there many times.
Also, Heartwood school in western MA is good.
If you need a link, let me know and I'll post one for you.
Also, in ME is Fox Maple.

Thanks Jim. I attended Yestermorrow for a plastering workshop a few years ago and I enjoyed the experience. Between the tuition, fuel to get to/from Vermont, lodging, food, and time out of work, I just wanted to make sure I am getting the most for my money/time. I will look into the other schools mentioned also. Thanks again, Greg

I enjoyed my foxmaple experience a couple months ago and I learned a lot. I understand what you mean about the costs adding up. It's hard for me to spend so much money in one week
