A splice will not contain the twist, reliably.<br /><br />One more thing to look for when selecting wood.

Maybe an interesting challenge? Using both in the same space and the wedges that tighten the scarf also lock the post to the sill.

Sorry, haven't had a chance to draw each beam out, but maybe this will give you another view. <br /><br />I'm going to send you an email with my sketches<br /><br />Also, how about moving the of the top sill splice such that it is centered over a post.<br /><br />You've picked a great little project to learn this, I'm thinking along the same lines. Keep up the great work, I'm loving it!Gabe D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05809883477919665827noreply@blogger.com
