Howdy,
There has been some activity on scribing on rounds on here lately. Got me thinkin'. Uhoh.
So you want to build a frame. You have the plans in your head or on paper. Could you not leave the timbers round except where the joinery meets? Sorta like flattening the level areas in scribe.
As far as work goes, it seems like this approach might take a helluva lot less labor.
I could be missing something as usual...
