Timber framing talk
Sunday, May 11, 2-3:30 p.m.
The Ferrisburgh Historical Society’s May speaker at the Ferrisburgh Town Hall, is Will Gusakov, a Vermonter who is a timber framer working out of Lincoln, building and repairing timber frame homes and barns. After a devastating fire in the Notre Dame cathedral in Paris, he was called to work on helping restore one of the most iconic buildings on the planet. He and his wife, along with their two young children, moved to France and helped recreate part of the roof structure of the cathedral in Normandy, which was eventually shipped to Paris for installation. Gusakov will discuss his experience using techniques dating to medieval times.
