how many Fidlers does it take?

Apparently just 3, to see the roof framing complete!

I was going to call this post the last spike, but surely that is a lie, as there will be many more spikes before this project is complete, however ” a very important spike” just didn’t have the same ring. It is now apparent that Dave and Colin just can’t stay away, and we are as always thrilled to have them here. These 3 Fidlers are not only  a very productive team, but a dynamic accumulation of skills and muscle and ideas who obviously enjoy so much playing with new theories and of course big tools. It must be something magical that happens when a craftsman father; carpenter and timber framer gets to help his son; a third generation carpenter build a wood shop out of trees (what else) with the help of his youngest son and the trio’s greenest woodworker!  The boys erected their guest house on the front lawn and put in their usual extended weekend at our labour camp, which Dylan is lovingly referring to as “camp out for grown ups”
