I just started on this cabin a couple weeks ago. It's located on a few acres that I'll eventually call home. Before I start on the house, I figured I'd give a small "toolshed" a try.
I only have one crappy cell phone picture right now, but I'll update the thread with more detailed shots this week.

We just finished, well almost, our 10x12 toolshed/cabin as a precursor to our larger cabin. It let us get some experience with some new materials and methods. We'll also have a place to sleep for the next two years it will take to finish the cabin.

Looking forward to following your build. Pictures!
Looks good! What part of Mass are you in?

foothills of the berkshires, a little town called blandford. my street deadends in springfield watershed land, which is comprised of ~10,000 acres of mountains, reservoirs, and forest. not far from otis reservoir, which you may be familiar with.
heading up to work on the cabin tomorrow. i hope to frame the 4th wall, install the rafters (precut at home), and sheath by sunday. if i'm feeling really ambitious, i may try to get it wrapped in felt paper. i'm really itching to get a roof on it and protect the cheap osb sheathing from winter weather.
as is always the case, i didn't have as much time to work on the cabin as i thought i would. i did manage to get the fourth wall framed, and all of the rafters, ceiling joists, and collar ties installed. next up: sheathing.
