Jim Katen Posted November 10, 2018 Report Share Posted November 10, 2018 Any pictures? I love Oregon, but the oldest structures here are only from the 1850s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Amaral Posted November 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2018 I can't share the photos unfortunately.. it's a sensitive situation. It had one of the most beautifully-trimmed/carved summer-beams I've ever seen... just perfect (in the front-right 'living' room). Gunstock corner posts exposed... I've done a bunch of these thru the years.. this one was the easiest but it too was complex in regards to the multiple two-pipe-steam heat systems, numbers of panels and such. It had a ton of excellent heart-wood for window casings/sills and such... The main fireplace was huge and I was able to 'walk into it' to inspect it.. that big..
