The new oak beam!

We have just picked up the new oak beam for the cottage, cut from a local forest about one year ago. Not the easiest or cheapest option but I always said I would replace anything like for like to keep it authentic. We also have new oak joists and the floor boards for upstairs too. Unfortunately as we are behind schedule with having to replace to main beam, and we aren’t ready to lay them just yet. Hopefully we can get the new beam in ASAP and get back on track.

The new oak beam! The new oak beam! The new oak beam! The new oak beam! The new oak beam!

Beautiful! Worth the expense in the long run. I had to replace the floor in my 120 year old condo, and my parents tried to convince me to go for laminate. I would have saved a lot of $, but matching the oak floor in the rest of the apartment was completely worth it. Not nearly as ambitious a project but I find it satisfying every time I walk on that floor:)

"Not the easiest or cheapest option but I always said I would replace anything like for like to keep it authentic." - are you sure you're not an Architect?
