Great work Warren
This is that dome you mentioned a while back. I had it in my head you were doing a barrel ceiling. Or I'm confused, easy to guess that right.
I love this stuff.
I'm so close to talking about cutting with a cnc but you have proved Loneframers point, Circular saw, circular cut.

So cool

loneframer

Gus, we both seem to have earned a mutual respect for each other, I inquired about the cutting method assuming a cnc. Framers will be framers Gus.

Gus Dering

Ah but you said router not cnc router. You threw me off the scent with that. Plus you spent a whole day telling me how great it has been cutting things like that with a hand held router.
Glad to see I have expanded your horizons a little. :-)

. Framers will be framers

Not exactly my favorite term of endearment but I know what you mean. I gotta give some credit to a young talent who works for me. I did the design/engineering and most of the assembly but nearly all the cuts were done by my man B-Dub.

loneframer

No offense should be taken with that comment Warren. I simply meant to imply that framers are capable of producing surprisingly beautiful results with the tools of there trade, who don't own an elaborate machine that is roboticly guided through each cut by a computer program, which is one of the tools of Gus' trade. I guess I'm equating us to the guy who creates amazing ice sculptures with a chainsaw. B-Dub is obviously a great asset to you and a craftsman in his own right. Framer should never be taken as offensive, especially if you are one.

I came across something like this quiet a few times in older, even in a newer homes. Who ever did this or still doing work using such methods, they should be

This one is in Wisconsin, and
not so fast, there's also PVC,
cast iron, copper, and brass
in the waste!
Ooops,almost forgot some of
the original lead drains too!
Posted a pic of the full wiped joint
in plumbing the other night.

Of course, and lots more too.
See the two poking out of the
wall here?
You can leave 'em hot, if you
wrap them in yellow kleenex
and bury 'em with plaster of paris!

This is Middle Sis' house, her camera.

Plumber is here now, will have
pix for plumbers and carpenters
to rip me on tonite.

Round barns?? Never seen one but that would be a nice challenge.

TempestV

How exactly did you get a job 2000 miles from home?

ProWallGuy

Because I'm just that freakin' good.

Or he ran away from home because there's just too much work around his place--according to SWMBO.

Or his wife has been a little too attentive to him lately

Some work I did in January.




Gotta lil chimney work left, froze out in Jan. waiting for better ground conditions to finish it.

Long story bout that arch, someone is lucky to still have a job on that deal.


Garage on the front of home (pet peeve)



Octagon window with limestone accents turned out ok. Why would you want your windows so close to the eaves?

Not a clue. I'm still working on why you'd have a keystone in a straight horizontal run.

Looks nice!

loneframer

I don't think anybody wanted the windows burried in the soffit, this looks like a stick framed roof, the rafter tails drop below the plateline into the header so to speak. Truss roofs tend to finish out a little higher up the wall in my experience. The pitch of the roof also affects where it will finish on the wall. 6" more overhang and you'd have no reveal over the window.
Solution; taller walls or lower windows.
