Title: First Timber Framed Project Standing!
Post by: Jno wood on July 08, 2018, 09:06:41 AM
Nothing too complicated, but I am happy with the (near) final product.

I still have to add the shade rafters.

Nice work.  Really nice space you've got there.  Did you do the landscaping yourself?

Thanks for sharing.  Welcome to the Forestry Forum.

Thanks. Yes we did the landscaping ourselves. It was a huge project, about 10,000 of stone and 10 yards of soil etc. 

I moved wheelbarrows around, my wife is the gardener and actually built the dry stack walls. 

The before pictures is just dirt.

I used Penofin. I used a two stage process with a light colour underneath and dark colour overtop.
