Oh, I didn't see glatt snuck in there while I was off looking, because I didn't remember where I found it. 99% of the Cobb house links are on pinterest and you have to sign up. Fuck 'em. Yes the curved and sort of straight timbers on the outside are just casings.

I did the same thing over the windows and doors in my bedroom, to look like peeled log lintels. I found 12 ft beams which had two sawn sides, and two peeled, but they were Sycamore which is too weak for beams. Maybe that's why nobody had used them. Anyway, I sliced off the two peeled sides on the bandsaw, cut to lengths, and screwed to the walls.
