Jaime, how's the cabin going? Pics?

Nice job on that, Randy, seems solid and really kept the revs up!

They put him up on Mt. Rushmore without a Treehouse tee shirt. Who'd have thought it?

No turning back now!

Looking very tight, Jaime.

It's a great area, and you have the surf and sand not too far away as well. My cabin was in the Redwoods, but a little south in Watsonville. Anyone know Corralitos? A drive through apple orchards to get there. Very fond memories, fun to spooky. Jaime's part of the north coast is a cool area...

That is cool, but you mean there are some big trees around. :/:

Do the hay bales last indefinitely? Here with thatched roof structures, they smoke the inside to give the grass longevity, or for residences, it happens over time from inside cooking and heat fires. Older places that get smoked, bugs and snakes and mouskateers will fall out.

I was in a house in BC that used hay bales in a similar way. Apparently it worked very well.

Come a long ways!

The place is looking terrific!

Once you get the roof on, it is time to have a party!

Doubts are definitely disappearing. :lol: It really is starting to feel like a house, and a very cool one.

Certainly is shaping up great!

It is indeed looking promising. Have you thought of a name for the getaway location yet? How about Sackville? :lol:

Madrone is a homey wood. I've worked with it a bit. Indigenous west coast hardwoods have some interesting characteristics. Madrone, Laurel, Chinkapen.... Not known so much as woods for woodworking in the traditional sense, but they all can be very useful and beautiful.

Ya, really interesting project.

It's a lovely place that you have there. Do you think there is a definite reason to use something as strong coating as spar urethane? I finished the interior walls of a cabin once with a natural Perilla oil, thinned a bit with mineral spirits. Two coats. A few different types of oil that...

Bob, when did you say that you were born? :lol:

Yeah, good to see progress.
