Rick and Sandy on the road...

Look out Campton, NH here we come. Dan wanted to come with, but there just wasn't room in the sardine can. Maybe next time.

Vermont Timber Works doesn't always have a pre-install job site meeting, but it seemed to be needed for the White Mountain Administrative Complex Project. Coordinating the steel supports for our heavy timber trusses and Rick did find a few things that needed to be tweaked, so time well spent.

Rick and Rob (P & S Construction) discussed where we would be building the trusses, how the install would flow and where the crane would be. Plan is to be back during the week of 12/1.

Lunch at The Common Man in Ashland, NH on the way back was also time well spent. Thanks for buying Vermont Timber Works.

Barn Raising in Rockingham, VT

Day 3 with the crane and this beautiful heavy timber frame barn is almost finished. I hope to have many pictures to post shortly.

Dan and Rick surprised the crew on the job site this morning with fresh bagels and donuts. I'm sure the boys were happy about that!

Steve and Denise are headed out to watch the final stages of this timber frame barn raising.

Horse Barn designed with Heavy Timber Construction...

and our Vermont Timber Works CREW is raising the horse barn this week. Although it was a bit chilly loading and unloading the truck on last Friday, the weather this week has been quite nice. Today will be in the low to mid 60's.
Megan is on the job site capturing photos and videos for us and for the client. Doug stopped by on his way into work and 2 bents are UP and progress is being made.


Two lucky horses, possibly tennesee walkers will enjoy this timber frame barn.
