If I tried to do that it would look like the Fun House at the carnival. Nice Job.

Thanks guys! Here are the inside pics and some of the front of the cabin. So far i have put 3500$ into it but still need to get the ac/heater wich is around 500$. 1st interior pic is standing by the front door looking toward the back were the rooms are. above is the loft. second picture is standing back by the rooms looking to the front right corner(the door is on the front left corner.) We are moving furniture in this weekend!

Nicely done, very efficient use of space. Coming from someone with a similar cabin you're going to want a bigger porch. cheers

AC,

That looks great! Did you draw it up yourself or are there plans available? It looks like something my wife and I would like.

wow... very nice...

Re: Home Built Cabin - 09/09/10 03:28 PM

We just drew it up ourselves kind of based off of those portable cabins. It cost alot cheaper just to build it ourselves.

Are you a carpenter or a builder or something?

That thing would end up looking like a Jenga game if I tried it.

Can you scan the plans and put them up here for those of us on the forum who might want to take them and either build another or tweek the plans to suit our needs?

If others have plans too that might be a kind of cool thread to start. Hunting cabins plans with pics thread smile

Thanks

Dude, that is AWESOME....forget painting it!! Put some Thompsons in a pump up sprayer and it will be water proof and done in 30 minutes!!!

All it needs is a fireplace or a wood stove. Looks great !!

Re: Home Built Cabin - 04/08/13 06:23 PM

curious did you ever take pics once it was 100% finished out?

did you put radiant barrier on the roof to keep it cooler in the summer?

just going back looking at some old threads and wondering how this has worked out or not for you, and what if anything you would do differently...
