Pandemic Building Project-updated pictures - 05/06/20 02:51 PM

I started to build a shed to put Logan's little pontoon boat in and some other junk.

I had a bunch of old windows in the pole barn so I through them in to save on siding.

For siding I had a bunch of rough sawn Cedar lumber that a One Eyed Trapper sawed for me years ago.

After it was sided it looked to cute to be a "shed" so we peeled so Popple logs for floor joists. I guess it is going to become a "deer shack" or something. The things a guy does just to keep entertained.

All that pontoon boat would need would be a low roof carport or lean to but don't go overboard LOL

Reminds me of the guy who built a Doll House/play house for his daughter. When he finished he had to take his table saw apart to get it out!

It's amazing how much stuff we hoard over the years. Looks like you had a lot of stuff for that building. Now that you moved it from the other shed is there room for the boat in that shed??

So what will you be using Logan's Legendary Lodge for?

Re: Pandemic Building Project - 05/07/20 07:54 PM

Pretty impressive! I had no idea that you had so many talents. You gonna have electricity and plumbing in there?

Logan’s lodge? The toad hardly helps with it. Nope, it will have a freshly painted outdoor biffy. I don’t want guests to stay!

Nice job. It's always good to see what the lumber that I have sawn for customers gets used for.

I don't understand why you were not going insane, screaming about your rights, going off to coof protests and spreading this virus, but instead you invest your time in building something which will outlast everyone, have a wonderful memory for your family and you are making plans for the future. That is being satirical.

This part is not satirical, in, America would benefit from more wonderful people like you. God bless you for setting such a great example for your family, your community and for the people here.

My project is waiting as we had some new cases here. Instead I was planting asparagus roots this morning before it snows tomorrow.

We are still plugging away but progress has been slow. We did get an outhouse set up and most of the floor insulated and flooring laid. I will add more pictures when time allows.

Very cool cabin !

Uses are many for this one . So fun to sit in there and watch what walks or flies by .

Re: Pandemic Building Project - 05/18/20 04:22 PM

We have been plugging away on this as time allows. We got the floor sheeted about a week ago.

We got most of the ceiling paneled last night. I sure do like T&G white cedar!

Re: Pandemic Building Project - 05/19/20 04:08 PM

Looks like a man cave to me, not a place for a pontoon. Either way, it's a nice piece of work.
