Hey, Dusty Here - We love our little "cabin" in the woods - We are planning another project for the top portion of our property and we were thinking of doing a 1 bedroom w/kitchenette above a garage but we are still "tuckered-out" from this last go around. Our family helped out alot. Both my brothers were involved and even mom and the kids were involved. There was about a year and a half preparation into the land before we could start building. We had an old trailor and out buildings infested with HUGE SPIDERS!!!{ We also had to tear up the old septic and put in a new one plus we did all the underground electric-phone-cable ourselves - The only thing we did hire out was the drywall and I have to say that I was so happy to see a whole crew of people banging out a job in just a few days. Will write more later.

Worked just fine for me at home!
Beautiful interior to match the exterior.

A bad day of fishing beats a good day at work any day, but building something with your own hands beats anything.

Hi Guys!
I am new to the forum and to the web site, but I like what I see so far. I have recently purchased 10 secluded acres in Berea, Kentucky. I have researched the site for a few days and this is the version of the 20' wide cabin that I want to build. How can I get plans for this layout (with the two large dormers upstairs)? I also would like to add a wrap around porch. Again, awesome cabin! Thanks for your help.
Scott

Here's another comment from Dusty:
Sorry, I personally altered the roof to the design with the shed dormers - I did research at the library on different roof options and the just modified the roof plan - We had to get an engineers approval before the county would stamp our building permit - You would be amazed at all the different roof designs - check out the internet or you local library on "roof trusses" that might be a good start - thank you for your comment and good luck
