MotorSeven said:RR, sorry.......I was Helter Skelter yesterday. AM- had a 16 roll Hay delivery, so I went to hook up the 20' bevaertail. Rats...I forgot that the last time I used it to haul the rafters up to the house site I broke 6 forward welds from the bed to the frame. Over to the shop, used the tractor to flip the trailer up on it's side so I didn't have to weld upside down.....which I really despise. Put the welder up and load the rolls, deliver hay...yap with customer for 45min. Got back to the shop and had to clean it out(in laws are inbound tonight from Manitoba). Just closed the shop doors and see the roof helpers arriving. Dash up to the house, harness up and get on the scary man lift. We finished it at dark...and I ummm, er...ahh... plumb forgot the camera
Ok, I have the camera in my mitts.....concrete is arriving at 0900 hrs:thumbsup:
MotorSeven said:Thanks Tony, the walnut stain is for the bathroom only,,,she wants that with a dark slate floor in there. Clear Tung oil for the rest of the interior and a natural colored translucent stain for the exterior.
Kyle that's actually his daddy he's snuggled up against. Mama and Daddy did give me the third eye so I used the zoom lens...I'd rather not get freight trained by a "Mad Cow". I am kinda concerned about coyotes, so will have to sleep light tonight & keep the rifle handy.

Andy, glad you could stop by and let me know how those .22's run when you get a chance to shoot them.
Fox, yes I should have cut those Poplars back in the summer. These were late fall and they refuse to peel so I left the bark on for now. I think once the stove is in and I heat things up the logs will shrink & that bark will drop off. If not the wife really like the rustic look, so I might just end up spraying Tung Oil on them.
As for the cantilever, it will have a 10' roof over it with 4' of overhang on the ends & 2' off the back. Your right, there will be times when the North wind blows water onto the deck so I will just have to deal with it. Even with no roof yet I am only getting a small amount of water in the basement from a couple of the the beam slots which are no yet caulked. Do to the sequence of construction(translates to the sequence of the money trail) I had to do it that way because I had to have the deck in place to work on the roof.
You peeled tie poles look awesome!
What type of moisture meter do you have ? What did it cost? On the beach in Kauai marvelling at what you have accomplished! I will be back to you with more kudu's when I get on a big computer and back into the NW rain! Your the man! My new idol!
