Photo: 20' x 32' timber frame workshop in Ketchikan, Alaska
My first timber frame building. A 20' x 32' workshop. All western red cedar timbers were 'beach logged' (down-dead trees) collected off the beaches of Southeast Alaska. Special thanks to Mike Sallee & his VW sawmill. Side walls are 11' 9" high with the top 3' done in lexan for great interior lighting & view of the woods and sky from inside the shop. All work done with much help from family and friends - Thanks to Noah Webb, Greg Middag, Karen Middag, Dave Nesje, & Eric Taylor for hundreds of hours of volunteer help.
Design or Plan used: My own design - Shelley Stallings
