  13. what you want is a chain mortiser dean most of my apprentiship when i left school was oak framing, loved it and still do, il try and dig out the photos of the one i did last summer, though it was only softwood.
  14. get some good solid windows made up from seasoned oak, that will help to stop the structure twisting to much because as its a summer house it will be lacking the weight you would have if it were a garage etc, infill betwwen the oak with studwork with good solid diagonal bracing.id normally go with seasoned softwood for this, but it depends if its going to be seen,another option is to clad the outside of the studwork with ply then tyvek over it and clad with oak, i could go on and on
  15. id go oak personally
