Rustic Cabin

Excellent craftsmanship, and very resourceful at that. I’m sure there will be lot’s more great memories to come about this cabin.

I’ll put this in my book of never-seen-befores. It’s weird to see the roof on before the walls. Cool. For less then 5k I wish I had it.

I am not ususally a rustic fan but I love this .This is so cool.I have exactly the same kind of material box aluminium for my shop roof and since I installed it a few years ago I haven’t had one drip guaranteed 25 years so it will be there when I am not LOL love you project I wish you many years of happiness enjoying it.Alistair

Beautiful!

The big deck is a great idea.

Great project…...............

-- mtnwild (Jack), It's not what you see, it's how you see it.

Thanks for all the encouraging comments. My dad and I have been working on this a couple of weekends a month for the last 2 years.

We plan to cover at least part of the back deck and may expand the back another 10-15 feet. The front porch faces south so the back deck is shaded a good portion of the day. We spend 90% of waking time outdoors when we are there so outdoor space was pretty important.

Yes it did look a little strange with a roof and no walls. We wanted to get the rafters and sub floors protected from the elements as soon as possible and needed a covered area for camping.

I will post some more pictures when we get the interior finished.

I’d want to live there and take a week or two off each year to go work. Very nice.

toolman77,

I first saw this project you and your Dad built after I read your review of your Grizzly GO555X bandsaw. The cabin looks great! It looks like the perfect place to relax and get away from all of the “every day” problems of life. I hope you and your family have many wonderful times together at the cabin.

You did a grate job, good choice on roofing, we use it a lot here in costa rica
