Timbers Timbers Everywhere
The Vermont Timber Works shop is full of timbers (this is a very good thing). Douglas fir timbers for the Chapel for Holy Apostles project to be erected in October of this year.
From the glulam arches to the king posts, this project is cool. Below is the 3D model (very nice Butch)!
The Vermont Timber Works crew will be raising this timber frame. Lot's of pictures will be taken I am sure of that. Stay tuned!

Timber Frame Homes by Vermont Timber Works
A timber frame home by Vermont Timber Works is always a good idea. Hand crafted, traditional joinery and custom designs. NICE! Here are two of my favorite completed timber frame projects by VTW.
This very pretty timber frame home features hand hewn white pine and a gambrel roof design. Below is an interior finished shot. Gorgoeous, don't you think?
Another favorite is our Chase House. Native hemlock timber frame home with traditional joinery, mortise and tenon with hardwood pegs and dovetail joints.
This family has outgrown their cape and has called Vermont Timber Works for an addition. Repeat business is the best!

This is a pretty church. Heavy timber trusses spanning 52ft with arched douglas fir beams and steel tie rods.

Timber Frame...Progress in the SHOP!
Many many progress shots for our friends at the Fresh Air Fund and Storm King Contracting. These douglas fir timbers and logs will soon be the New Camp Hayden Dining Hall.
From the layout, cutting (all by hand), to the finishing...it's quite a process. The Vermont Timber Works CREW scatters when I bring out the camera...
Trust me, there really are guys working on this!
The finished custom timber frame will look like this...

Snow, Wind, Sleet and Timber Frames in Vermont.
Timber frames are hand crafted in our North Springfield, VT shop and shipped all over the country, regardless of the season. Our Vermont Timber Works Crew raises many of these timber frames. As I type, warm at my desk, Tommy and the guys are in Rockingham, VT organizing and assembling a timber frame house. The weather today is not bad, but I bet the wind has a bite to it!
We assemble the bents and sections on the ground, then raise them into place with a crane and fork truck. It's very cool to watch. This project actually has 2 timber frame structures, the first being the timber frame barn AND we have a video on youtube...take a look!
Timber Frame Barn Raising
Stay tuned for progress shots of the residence, below are the shop drawings...can you picture it?
Traditional Joinery, semi-sanded native hemlock timbers with a minwax clear sealer. Beautiful!
