Lattice of Logs



Ben uses the chainsaw to put the perfect angle onto the end of the hewn beam before hoisting it up into the spectacular canopy of beam-work in the gathering room.

Click on the video clip to view the challenging job of putting these massively heavy beams into place.






If you look carefully, you can see a jack being used to wedge the new beam precisely into place. Each additional beam in the overhead network has to be carefully measured and notched to fit into the interlacing configuration.

Mom...this is SO exciting! I can hardly believe all the change that's happened since New Years.

Praying for peace and provision. You know...you just might have another book by the end of this :-)
