New to Forum - Looking for advice on Timber Frame Construction for backyard Studio
Hi all
My name is Tim and I am new to the forum today.
I'm joining to get some advice on a project to build a standalone studio in my backyard - from the foundations up!
I'm planning on using timber for most of the project - apart from stumps and the roof.
Could someone please provide a guide as to the best sub-forum(s) to post to or browse for this?
Regards
Tim

The best way to get a full overview is pop down to Bunnies and hit the books section - specifically the Alan Staines books on building. A pretty decent overview, well illustrated, and pretty up to date.
And the Renovate Forums are the ones for building advice.

Welcome aboard,
90 x 35 mgp 10 is most common, depending on your cladding either 600 centres or 450 centres.
I'll check out if you hit the other forum - you will get heaps of advice over there

G'Day & Welcome to a top forum "Tim".
There are members from across this wide brown land and across the rest of the world.....
You'll find a heap of helpful & knowledgeable blokes & ladies on the forum and for most very willing to assist.
Make sure you show off your handiwork as everyone loves a photo, especially WIP [Work In Progress] photos with build notes.
You're already receiving some but may I suggest you do a thread in one of the more specific sub-sections for a wider audience...
Enjoy the forum.
Enjoy your woodwork & new studio.....
Cheers, crowie
