I guess timber piling/post is the way to go out on the shore? I recall the timber piling council of america (yes, there was such a thing, I recall!) said that timber pilings were resilient even after 100 years of salt water exposure.

Also, does my eyes deceive me? It looks like its only about 10-12 feet off the ground. I thought FEMA wanted 13ft from the 100 year flood line to get the lowest insurance cost.

Grade is not sea level.

Originally helped out with the floor and exterior walls on this guys then was off doing my own thing and my buddy called to help install the Windows after the timber framers finished the roof. Tripple glazed fun!.. I'm still a little sore.

Nice helical :thumbup:

Haven't posted many pics here in a while. This is our current project. Pool house with 3" thick t&g roof sheathing with 7" foam system over. 60 windows in this bad boy. Cupola on top is 12x28

This deserves its own thread. No?

 

[Dan_Watson]

:no:

That's your first post?

Can you start a thread for that project?

instead of plywood? so weird.

We have a lot of that. Just plywood in the corners. It was very popular around here years ago. That and the vegetable board bs.

Have you seen the any of the SBE projects...they have had to use some hardware.

Some serious steel in this one -

Looks like Manuel delivered those? (red truck) My boss always requests Manuel any time we get trusses from trus-way, he's easily their fastest crane operator.

And the award for most random first post goes to?

Someone (that used to be?) on here has a self erecting mini tower crane for framing. There are a few threads showing it.

they used to sell it in stores around here but not anymore for some reason.

Been to the store a few times. I actually pass by on 76 on my way to the project I need it for.

this reminded me to order some Kilfrost oil for this winter. frozen guns/hoses is no fun.

Where do you get it from?

Here's 3 of my favorite framing jobs, unfortunately, no pics of the actual framing.:sad:

Is the first one in EHT?
