CUSTOMER REVIEWS:
Not Worth the Money -
As a builder specializing in Timber Frame construction, I was looking for a book that would provide pictures and design ideas for someone considering this type of construction. This book isn't it. The book is full of nice pictures of downright ugly timber frames. Many of the frames seem to be made of 4x4's. That's not a structural frame, that's trim. Real frames start at double or triple that size.
Timber frames are beautiful structures conveying the strength and richness of the trees from which they came. There are a few examples of this in this book, but not nearly enough to make it worth the cost. If you are looking for a great timber frame idea book, keep looking.
