About The Chainsaw Cabin<\/p>\n
The Chainsaw Cabin is our first building, a small 120 square feet shed\/cabin on Hewn Hill. All lumber will be hand milled with a small inexpensive electric chainsaw. This is to see if anyone can build a small functional building with literally tools you can find at a garage sale and our only costs will be roofing, fasteners & glass for windows.<\/p>\n
The Chainsaw Cabin is single wall construction where the wallboards are a structural component of the build. Many of our primitive and pioneer building were constructed this way. The outside wallboard is also the interior board as well.<\/p>\n
Henry David Thoreau\u2019s cabin was only 10 x 15 and not much bigger than you can legally build today without a permit in most counties. For the Chainsaw cabin while it is only 10 x 12 with a sleeping\/storage loft. So if you are staying for a night or two at least you will have separate work, living & sleep areas.<\/p>\n
In 1845 is cost the tiny home pioneer $28.12 to build his modest abode. With inflation that comes in at $962.80 in todays shrinking dollars. That is our goal to build our small structure with doors, windows and roofing for less adjusting for inflation than Henry did many years ago.<\/p>\n
We are starting with outbuildings to get the property functional. Places to store tools, a solar shed & a place to sleep if need be. This is phase one and we hope to get that done this year starting with the Chainsaw Cabin then learning how to build a log structure on our next shed.<\/p>\n
Next year, Lord willing we will start on our main two story, traditional hand hewn log cabin built with logs from the property and probably a few other locally sourced ones as well.<\/p>\n
