Thanks for all the encouragement!
So now that I have the Base down it was time to start shoring things up! In the previous posts I didn't share my initial cabin plan. I didn't use any planning software, just a sketch on napkin. Then I used Microsoft paint to create the 1st plan (Pic1). The cabin will have 2 bedrooms with barn style doors to save space (8'X10' each) There will be a loft above the bedrooms (16'X10') The center of the loft will be almost 6' with the back of the cabin only having 2' clearance and the front having 4'. The main living area and Kitchen (16'X14') will be very open with a 14' cathedral ceiling. There will be 2 doors for entry, one on the front porch and one on the East side. I will have 11 Windows on the first level and 3 long windows across the top front edge cabin spanning almost the full length.
Andy and I were lucky enough to find some old silos that we got for free. One of them was the perfect size for the bathroom/shower house. It is 8' round and about 10' tall in the center. So we added to the base, painted that section and moved the silo in place (Pic2). In this picture you can see the gussets we added to the base pier and beams for stability.Last edited by wlee15; 08-08-2018, 05:39 AM.
