The options I was looking at

(1) Framing first, then sheathing, to keep weight down
(2) Get some scaffolding, then do the old school balloon framing method of toenailing a couple studs up, then the top plate, then fill in the studs using the scaffolding
(3) Follow what cody did ( https://www.countryplans.com/cody.html ) and do it in panels.
(4) Do it in sections and use the interlocking top plates

Only option (3) makes me particularly nervous, but Cody pulled it off well.  If you decide to not have to raise a wall at all, essential craftsman has a video of (2) https://youtu.be/d7pDvk8r3jI?t=608

Oh my gosh   Such a great weekend and we'll be back this weekend for an entire week  Can't wait!

I've gotten an extension on my DNR thinning project so have time to get the job done right which is good since my arms and back can't take the workload like they used to.  But now, I'll get more trees down, peel the bark off the small ones for poles and things and mill the bigger ones.

Have plans to make a D Log shed as well (so the rats can't get in) and so much more!
Stay tuned!

Hi.  I really like the look of the solar saltbox, but with a hill of clay soil, I'd like to minimize any excavation for foundation.  Does anyone know of a solar saltbox having been modified for pier/beam foundation?
Thanks

Hello,
I'm trying to frame a house alone . I wonder if it could be done in 10 foot sections and then tied together with the top plate.
