Timber framing in the forest
Note the temporary clamp setup to sustain the king post joint and the rope holding the posts square. This type of simple setup makes it possible for a single person to raise a small timber frame entirely alone – with no help nor machinery. This picture was taken during the raising of the frame for the dry composting toilet and adjacent shower next to The Nest (interns house).

A glimpse from the construction of a new structure for a composting toilet and adjacent shower: 2 picture-perfect wedged dovetail joints (of the timber framed structure).
Two picture-perfect wedged dovetail joints.
This picture was taken in the early stages of laying out the foundation. Many more pictures and info coming soon!
