74 now, had I known about you guys when I left the USMC in 70, I would have worked FREE to learn that trade. To go to work, with hand tools, in God's great outdoors, with the aroma of fresh cut timbers surrounding you, with a team I'm watching today makes my day. I'm taking the free course, which convinces me I would need personal guidance for a project like that. Or better yet, have you guys do it, while I I grabbed a chair with a hot cup of coffee. I'd even bring the doughnuts.

I literally spent 15 minutes of my afternoon looking to see what Gaius was talking about with the oak and hemlock (I paused the video right before the fun fact). Thank you for that 😂😂

Those cordless impact wrenches are soo great for structural screws and those long timber locks,etc. I bet they made your lives a bit easier with those monsters you guys drive

Somehow I only found this channel now in 2023. Amazing videos. Love the mix of people and wood, humor and technical details. I built my mailbox post using timber frame big dovetails but meant to make them the half in 45 dovetail where one edge is the dovetail. Would love to see some videos like that or small scale anything.

Thank you for watching! We definitely plan to get some videos out showing smaller scale building.

This was awesome. Really gives a first-hand perspective of what raising a complex structure is really like. Curious, what do you use as an end grain sealer?

Hey guys what's the lifespan of sips? I've always been curious to know. Also how do you pick up all the little foam pieces when you're done with the sips? Asking because we're starting on ours in 2023 and can't wait. Your online class is awesome!
@ShelterInstitute2 жыл бұрын
If they are installed and ventilated properly they can last as long as the timber frame. Moisture is definitely their biggest enemy. We use a rake, pick them up by hand and in some cases a shop vacuum. Best of luck on your build!

@@ShelterInstitute that's what we figured was the life of the timber frame. Thanks for responding back. One day we will come say hi when we visit Maine.

curious... what are the interior ceiling heights and are they standard for a build. they appear taller than the MV build. love love love these multipart series
@ShelterInstitute2 жыл бұрын
The standard ceiling height is 9' to the top of the beam on the first floor. The second floor ceiling height can be adjusted with the ridge beam height. The ceiling height can be customized from project to project!

I get that cutting out the Eves over hang makes a tighter envelope to the house but if you wanted to attach and over hang attaching to the Sips wit No Studs would be Dubious but Hey no thermal bridging

Regarding the wrong cuts. Cut them in half and add two pieces either side of the cut or add an extra piece of wood and scarf joint them

Isn't this how the Amish build? Do they have 600 sq ft plans? I want a really small house.
