Hustled to get this one in by Christmas.

Some shop and site pics.

Not as complex as the bell dormer, but I think it's still pretty cool.

We eliminate any hip framing by slicing in the Y direction.

Same house, different foggy day.

 

Another One!!!

 

Is that structure in the first picture being supported completely by coffee??


And, is that cardboard or masonite of some sort under the eaves, stapled over the osb sheathing?

That's new to me - is that an insulation thing?

 

Yeah, that's a cardboard stapled to trusses and osb sheathing. Those are called insulation stops.

 

Saw this recently.

This is in a pretty large development by the main builder's framers.

 

Another useful application of the A35 wall clip...

Looking good FramerPDX.

 

Got some inside framing pictures yesterday, of the bell dormer I posted a while back. The ceiling continues at the bell profile to the back wall of the room that contains the dormer.

Majestic as usual digiconsoo.

What are they finishing that with? Drywall?

 

Wow you even give drywall templates?! You rock...

 

How are the ceiling members constructed?

Everything is laminated plywood.

 

Fun little cap code we have been plugging away at.

 

6 down on one street, 7th on the go, 13 more in the works. Down to 3.5 days each now.

 

Those truss booms sure are handy.

 

Just a cabin.

Sure is nice to finally do some stick framing.

 

how do you rotate an image?

 

Are those trusses? I can't tell on my phone?

 

Townhouse framing

 

Cooking up some 21' elliptical flitch plates.:chef:

Welding the CNC plasma cut steel parts that bolt up in between the plywood bread.

Some renders for context.

 

Brent,

Do you has a plasma cutter on your CNC machine?
The 3D drawings are excellent. Especially, with the APA plywood stamp.

Framed this on up last week and we are doing the cedar siding on it now.

 

Is that flat roof there to store the snow?:blink:

 

Yeah I'm not a huge fan of it either. Its all a galvanized steel roof. I'd imagine that snow would have an easier time sliding off of that than a torch on roof.

I just think it looks goofy. But hey I'm not paid to design the building I just need to make a bunch of wood look like the picture.

 

Some more shop pics.

 

And install in Brooklyn, the test bed for car horn manufacturers.
