Tuesday Trades: Raising a Drying Shed, Revisited


  • The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation Williamsburg, VA USA (map)

See how many hands make light work, as our carpenters - and a few friends - raise the walls for the drying shed at the new brickyard. Constructed on-site with traditional timber framing techniques (and a few modern ones to satisfy building codes), this post-in-ground structure was typical for colonial Virginia's industrial buildings. Be sure to watch the carpenters and brickmakers and hear about the exciting collaborative projects that they have planned for the future, live, on Tuesday, January 31 at 1:00PM on Facebook or at bit.ly/3xCNf4Y.
