frame structures so appealing, generation after generation,<br />
depend on mastering traditional skills and tools. This first<br />

building plans for a 12 x 16 structure — a manageable size for a<br />
novice, but large enough to serve as a useful cabin, workshop,<br />
or studio. Full-color photos and instructive diagrams help<br />
readers learn what makes timber framing different from<br />
modern “stick” framing, the basics of timber-frame engineering,<br />
and proper handling of the necessary tools.<br />
