Timber Framing

In the Spring of 2003 (just days after being evacuated from China), I went with my dad to a timber framing workshop in Maine, timber framing being the method of building structures with mortises, tenons and pegs (instead of nails, screws and bolts). I didn't participate much because I was already a Master Framer (well, perhaps only a Journeyman) at that point and didn't want to deprive the students of their experience. I took a few pictures instead. When I wasn't at the workshop I was hiking in the White Mountains of New Hampshire (that's next to Maine); you can see some photos from my journeys there at the end of this album.
