New to the forum, just thought I would share an idea on how we made our cabin. In North Dakota we have alot of old wooden granerys that are just sitting out in the field waiting for a new purpose in life. They are 12' or 16' wide by usually 28' long, 2'x6' walls with 3/4" plywood on them, and tongue and groove flooring. If you can find one that wasn't used to long ago the wood is usually pristine inside because they were always kept dry and full of grain. I purchased the building for $500 and there is no way I could have built it for that amount. We divided the building into a combination living room /kitchen area, and a bedroom which could have been divided into two if wanted. There is a loft at both ends, one for sleeping and one for storage. It suits ouf families needs and we all really enjoy it.
Thanks Geno
