Chisel, Mallet, Saw, Measuring tools, Layout toolsIn both our in-person and Online Purely Post-And-Beam timber framing courses, we use a 24' x 24’ Class Timber Frame to teach you all the basic joints you will need to build your own timber frame structure. One of the more complicated joints in this frame is the Thru Mortise, which has multiple slants and angles that help lock the beam & post together. In this video, Gaius & Gabe will walk through the whole joint using a full-scale model, explaining the best order for cutting an accurate thru mortise, and how it fits together with its corresponding Thru Tenon.
