Thank John for hosting this amazing forum.  And thanks to everyone past present and future that shares their insight, allowing us insane DIY obsessive-compulsives to muddle through.

For you Americans celebrating Thanksgiving, and for everyone else to whom today is just another day, I raise a glass and toast you.

Cheers!

I couldn't agree more! This forum provided tons of valuable advice and encouragement as I built our place.

Thanks indeed! This forum and the people on it have inspired me to go from just dreaming
to actually working towards making my dream a reality.

Completely agree too. I am not so sure I would be building my own house without Mr. Raabe both designing great owner-builder plans and hosting this website and forum.

The members of this mesage board also provide invaluable advice and support.
