Thank you Red and Monte;for stating the obvious but I came here with a demand for technical, expertise of some builder or knowledgable person that has built a wood frame once or more for a specific reason and specific project study. Please dont assume that I am clue less or unable to comprehend, communicate and respect craftmenship of mexican contractors and architecture and the challenges and codes that applies with the flora, fauna and weather challenges... Maybe I need to build a wood frame structure with some other material then wood?...maybe Im not building a cabin in Mexico?..
