Title: Some Osage braces in one of my new barns
Post by: Brad_bb on October 15, 2020, 04:21:33 PM
I milled, planed and polished these last Dec/Jan.  The frame was raised in August. I think we're gonna put another coat of heritage exterior oil on the frame.

Awesome work Brad. Glad I'm getting to see some your new empire and results from all the sawing you've been doing. 

Quite a place you're building there.  Could you post the site plan, elevations, some drone footage, . . . and while you're at it, artist rendering of the overall project?  :D

Thanks for posting. Looking good.

You've got that right!  Some people put a lot of time and money into building a show car, well these are show Barns.

No cedar.  Osage braces and white oak timbers.  Strong like bull!
