Dovetail joint on a 10 FOOT barn beam console, I originally bought this gantry crane to help flip and load slabs, but it’s working great for what started as a 16’ long 11”x11” barn beam. Based on the growth rings and the time this barn beam was originally used, the tree this beam came from was a sapling around the early 1800s!
