Moved in!!

About a year and a half later, we have officially moved in!

The final inspection went fairly well, we have a couple minor things to fix so the inspector is happy.

We are finishing up with trim & baseboards, all the interior doors are in & trimmed out as well. We'll start on the outside porch & entryway once all the inside is completed & moving boxes unpacked :)

Pics to come soon....

Hi, I've been lurking here since last fall. Reading about your progress and seeing the great pictures is very inspiring. Congrats on your awesome accomplishment!

I took the LHBA class in June 2006, and I'm planning to build here in Oregon before I get too much older. ;-)

You guys rock. I'm so happy for you!

Second floor 4x10's done and a few windows

Image
 We finished getting all the 4x10's up on the girders, leveled, and secured. Also installed another 3 windows, the two fixed pane in the living room are in, and the slider in the kitchen as well. The next ones and the patio door I'll need Jessica's help with, too heavy to do alone. Cleaned up a little as it was getting messy .  Not too far from starting interior wall framing!!

Interior clear done

Busy weekend; the interior finish is complete!! We decided to do a clear satin finish. Each log is so unique we felt this would bring out its natural beauty. Lots of work to get them ready for this weekend. - Powerwash 3x - grinded all logs with flap disk - palm sanded inside (60 grit) - scrubbed with cleaning solution - applied a brightner - coated logs in borate (keeps the bugs out!) - applied Pre-Stain #sashcocolorfast - sanded between each coat of clear. We couldn’t be happier! The logs have a soft, smooth texture with a luxurious sheen. Exterior stain this weekend!
