I get by with a little help from my friends

I’ve had plenty of help in building handmade houses over the years.
I’ve had several hundred apprentices come through my door during my career and even though most had a lot to learn, I learned something from each of them.
I’ve also worked under, and alongside, some tremendously talented people who had more to offer me than I did for them.
I’m a good carpenter, and a fair mason, and I can fake it with the rest of the trades… but my main talent has been having “the vision”, and bringing together a team that can make it happen.

When we build a handmade home for ourselves we are not only “leaving a legacy” behind. We are also “living a legacy”… now. Be that person.

It doesn’t take that much more effort, nor that much more material, to frame up a home with timbers rather than by using laminated lumber from Home Depot, but the difference in appearance and durability is amazing.
