About Connext Post and Beam
Post and beam construction without metal plates and brackets.
Welcome to the same family business that's developed an innovative framing system to greatly simplify post and beam construction. We've created a revolutionary type of connector that can go in any direction: vertically, horizontally and even diagonally!
Our aluminum T-REX Connectors are patented and structurally-approved so architects can add them confidently for either an old-school or a minimalist, modern look. And contractors and experienced DIY-ers can now frame easily with post and beam, preserving the natural, clean beauty of wood.
The possibilities go beyond single beam to beam connection, as our 3-way connectors can tie huge beams together above in a long span or a truss can be designed with our minimal metal connectors. The 4-way connectors we now offer solve the issue of multiple connections. Even post to base is now a breeze with our rust-resistant connectors. Our products are easy and uncomplicated, saving you time and money while providing the highest quality in construction and customer service.

EZ Slotter is recommended for homeowner/contractor limited use with 6"x6" and smaller beams.
We encourage you to watch the 5-minute video on YouTube before using the EZ SLOTTER
to cut your slots for T-REX Connectors at https://youtu.be/jJNMy-2wfcw.
1. Drill a 3/8" hole in your chain saw bar. Center hole in the
middle of the bar, approximately 4" from the motor.
2. Unscrew the nut from the end of the bolt and remove 2
washers. Remove the block by unscrewing 3 screws from the
bottom of the EZ Slotter.
3. Mount chainsaw in EZ Slotter and add the 2 washers that
you previously removed (to make 2 of each side of the bar).
4. Replace
block by reinstalling the 3 screws in the bottom of
the EZ Slotter. Tighten the nut so bar is snug but
moves freely.
5. EZ Slotter is set up for 6"X6" lumber. If you are using a different-
sized T-REX, you will have to remove the wood spacer on the bottom of
the EZ Slotter and replace it with a new spacer to adjust the location of
the saw kerf (slot) so that it will be in the center of your timber.
