Vermont Timber Works - Mortise and Tenon

I found Vermont Timber Works online today. They have done some impressive work and have a very nice explanation of their methods at http://www.vermonttimberworks.com/joints.html

This picture is a great example of mortise and tenon work.
Here is their "tools of the trade" page showing that they do a lot of their work by hand. Funny that I do not see a CNC machine.

    Thanks for the nice comments. No CNC Machine at Vermont Timber Works. All our beams are hand crafted by skilled Vermont craftspeople using very precise CAD drawings. Sometimes the old ways are the best ways!
