        Been a unproductive start this week frame wise. Ordered material for delivery and waiting. Looks like no walls are going up until Friday or Saturday. Electricity is now on site so that's a plus!

                Following. I built mine in 1999/2000 when I 25y/o. I did everything except well, septic and cabinets. Yours looks better built than mine. Good lord it was a lot of work. But it has sure paid off over the years! Since then I have built my shed and shop, too. You should be proud.

                    I like how he did his foundation
                    Just another (different) way
                    But I wonder if his well settle but I doubt this one with 48 sunken piers will
                    No settling yet. Under that thin layer of dirt you see is all bedrock.

                      (like the generous crawl space. Very handy when plumbing repairs, or anything else, needs to be done.)

                          Congrats. It's definitely a great feeling. Best part was being debt free. I built mine in 2009 when I was 23. Feeling the age this go around. Lol

                            I've got 10 acres to mow this evening and will be framing tomorrow morning! Will update more tomorrow.

                              Well today did not go as planned. I was really hoping to get 4 side walls completed and up. Had to work cattle this morning and came over here around 9 to get started. Electrical issue delayed me another 3 hrs. Finally got it all running and then had to meet with an Antler Chandelier customer. Came back around 1pm and after 10 or so shots with the nail gun it quit on me. Went to town and got a new one and then realized the nails I had didn't work with this one. Back to town I went for a 4th time today! Seemed like everything was against me. Finally got over here around 6pm with everything I needed and have the front wall ready except for headers. Maybe tomorrow after church things will go better for me. I have help coming to raise walls tomorrow!

                              I'm done with this today. Back to the barn and seenif I can't make progress on some Antler orders.

                                Looking good!

                                Can you do another budget update after you get all four walls (and maybe rafters?) up?
