Years ago I worked for a timber framing co. for 2 years. Loved that job, just wish it payed better. The smell of the wood when you went in the shop in the morning. Huge stacks of oak timbers to play with. Very enjoyable work.
On the build site was the best. Seeing all our work start to come together was impressive. I was proud to be a part of those buildings. We even carved our names in the top of a beam, out of sight, when we were done so the guy who takes it down 500 years from then will know who built it.
This summer we had to move the wifes clothes lines for some yard work. Old steel pipe eyesores. I told her I would build her some new ones out of 6x6 timbers. She really likes them. And now I cant wait to build something else.
I really miss that job. But this one pays the bills much better.
