Douglas Fir Timber Beam: a Straight Log Hewn Square and Seasoned

Douglas fir is strong, hard and durable, the wood of timber frames, trusses and heavy timber structures, and it comes in long lengths. Snap chalk lines on a straight log, hew it square with axe and adze, seal the ends and let it season under cover. The picture: our diagram, the square marked on the log end and the hewn beam.
