In the fall of 2013 I worked with a local general contractor to renovate a house in my hometown of Lincoln. The house had an 1860s-era schoolhouse at its core, and some unfortunate additions from the 1960s. We opened everything up, and I restored and extended the schoolhouse timber frame,  before adding a timber frame roof and loft system to the existing 1960s footprint.   [soliloquy id="360"]
