Can’t be afraid of heights in our timber framing group. Vermont Timber Works most recent timber framing stands @ about 60ft high…don’t look down, or go ahead…if you dare.

Vermont Foliage

The drive to work this time of year is the prettiest of all the seasons. If you work in Vermont that is! Vermont Timber Works is located in North Springfield and our timber framers love this time of year. Putting heavy timber trusses together in the yard, not too hot, not too cold.

Scissor Truss

We all know that snow is just around the corner, but for now, we are enjoying our beautiful foliage and comfortable weather.

Timber Pergola

Timber pergola by the pool, very nice idea.  Vermont Timber Works works closely with clients to insure their needs are met.  This is a beautiful additional to an already fabulous home!

Sandy took some great flower photos.

I think I’ll staple them over my desk or maybe over our wood structure engineering, timber job estimating, or design department doors, so we can appreciate the colors now, before…

…it all looks like this again!

Crane

It takes a gigantic crane or two to assemble a timber structure.

Crane and Hard Hat

It takes a hard hat too.

Raising

Sometimes many hard hats.

Macho macho man da da da da…how does that song go?

Somehow, I can’t picture our shop guys dancing!

Ruby Boxer Dog

Hi, my name is Ruby.  I’m a beautiful boxer and I belong to Dan.  I like to bark, drool, sleep and help out around our timber framing shop.

Hand Hewn Pine Timber

This timber is eastern white pine and has a hand hewn finish.  The timber framing tool that was used is called an adze.  I bet you are very surpised that I knew that!  Hey, I’ve been doing this since 1987!

Naptime for Ruby

That was hard work, time for my nap…See you next time!  XXOO Ruby Boxer

A Leg to Stand On

Katonah Project

Vermont Timber Works builds lovely wood columns. I especially like this stone and timber combination.

Lake Taghkanic Project

These brick and timber columns look nice too. But we don’t make just a leg to stand on.

Founders Lodge

Tall or short columns, we build them right…to last, esthetically through time.
