Again I apologize for posting non "A" related things on the forum.
Have had no luck in other forums and I know many many people on the Fordbarn are knowledgeable in things like this.
I own an old house, but don't know how old it is as the towns records kind of stink. To give an idea of its age my house is built on a fieldstone foundation with balloon framing and type B cutnails.
If you know a lot of about older building techniques, styles and so on please send me a private message on Fordbarn or an email at [email protected]
