Timber frame building - Taught by Fred & Joe Farey

Taught by brothers Joe and Fred Farey, you will learn about the timber you will be using, the design process and the basic techniques of timber frame construction. Over five days, you will collectively build a simple frame from start to finish using mortice and tenon joints. In the process you will set out and mark up the frames, make oak pegs and drill the offset peg holes. You will be using shoulder planes, chisels, marking gauges and a chain morticer. At the end of the course we will hopefully erect the finished frame which will be full of the character you give it.

Please inform us 48 in advance if you are no longer able to attend so we can offer your space to someone else. For detailed information about your course, please see  https://www.wernogwood.co.uk/everything-you-need-to-know
