I now wish I had purchased this one sooner. Although Sobon and Benson had been my guideposts, Chappell is now among them on equal footing. There is a treasure trove of information in the book and it takes you to places many other books neglect. It has everything you need to know to get started and much of what you need to know to become very good. The only thing the book doesn't provide is your own personal experience of learning from your mistakes, but that book can only be found in the library of the School of Hard Knocks. I consider this book to be one of three primary "Go-To" books on the subject so do yourself a favor and order it before you get very far in exploring this craft. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The goto book for traditional timber framing. *by A***R on June 13, 2017* I've just completed the spring 2017 introductory and advanced timber framing workshops (35 anniversary year of the workshops) run by Steve Chappell, the author of this book. This book gave me the confidence I needed to undertake this adventure that involved traveling to the other side of the world just to agenda his workshops. Having traveled from Australia to attended these workshops, that's saying something.I've brought this book about 3 years ago along with another 4 books by other authors on traditional timber framing. While the others I look at occasionally, I've read "A Timber Framing Workshop" more than 5 times over and am constantly referring to it. It is my go to book on timber framing. Aidan Banfield @wetlandscreations on Facebook ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best timber frame resources out there. *by S***N on May 4, 2017* I have quite few timber framing book. Most of them have pretty much all the same stuff. This one has quite a few extra stuff or a bit more detail in areas I had more questions in. If I had to only use 2 of the book I have on the subject this would be one and the other would be The Timber-Frame Home: Design, Construction, Finishing by Ted Benson which does the best of talking about the required details other than just the timber shaping and assembling. ## Frequently Bought Together - A Timber Framer's Workshop: Joinery & Design Essentials for Building Traditional Timber Frames - Learn to Timber Frame: Craftsmanship, Simplicity, Timeless Beauty - Timber Frame Construction: All About Post-and-Beam Building --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/2148210-a-timber-framers-workshop-joinery-and-design-essentials-for-building](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/2148210-a-timber-framers-workshop-joinery-and-design-essentials-for-building) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
