Here’s what I’ve been working on for the last couple of years. It has taken a while because I had to source the Port Orford cedar from a sawmill in Gold Beach, Oregon, let it dry, and cut the joinery. The frame raising was last July. It is small, just 6’x9′ in foundation plan. The roof has about 2′ overhangs. It will look roughly like this. The post feet are scribed to stones set on concrete foundation piers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few pix from the raising and some of the joinery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And now I’m trying to get the roof done before serious winter rains. I have the gable ends done and installed some lapped lattice sash for the gable infill. I have also finished the ceiling boards (ship lapped and hand planed) and I’m installing the roof plank decking now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though the structure is small there is a lot more to do. Finish the roof, more frame parts, sheath and plaster the walls, make the sliding doors, sliding windows, transom windows, the finish floor, steps, etc. I hope to finish it next summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
