Our New House
The pictures below show the steps and progress of our new house.   Right now I am just posting some pictures but later I will try to post the floorplans and the concept drawing I did of what I intend the house to look like when we get done.
House with siding removed to expose logs
Here is a picture of the original cabin during disassembly

Logs used in new house
This shows the section that will make up the greatroom and my office.......


reassembled on new site
And here they are reassmebled at their new location

Perspective view of main beam
Here is a view from the back of the house showing a corner and the main beam... HEAVY!

Log Hoist
This is the hoist that I built to lift most of the logs into place

Logs Cleaned and Wet
Here is one wall after being pressure washed and still wet.   The beautiful grain of the aged wood is really coming out.

Daniel and Logs
And for an idea of the size,   here I am standing at the opening into what will be our living room.  The beam over my head will be left exposed as will all the logs.  The bottom of the beam is about 7'6" above the floor.

Check back soon....  More pictures to come!!
