Pan Abode Mighty Cabana
Pan Abode of Washington state has been selling their custom cedar homes and cabin kits for nearly 60 years. They offer a wide scope of sizes and styles including cabins that range from 120 square feet to just over 700 square feet. However, Pan Abode also sells an even tinier home they call the Mighty Cabana. These buildings do not require a permit and come in at under 200 square feet.
The Mighty Cabana is pre-cut from solid wood and is connected by a patented building system for strength and ease of construction. They can be used as a small house, a small business, a vacation home, an artist studio, pool house or storage shed. Continue Reading »
Need Help Building Your Tiny House?
Angelica and her fiance Nic have recently decided to build their own tiny home, they have also decided that by helping someone else build theirs first it would give them an opportunity to prep for the real test, building their own.
Angelica and Nic would like to help someone build their tiny home and are willing to help for FREE. They live in New York City and would be willing to travel a ways to gain the experience. Nic has a lot of experience in carpentry and Angelica was previously an architecture student with experience using heavy duty machinery. They could start as early as this weekend.
If you could use their help please contact them at: [email protected] with information for them to call you and they will call you back.
UK Log Cabins
For our friends across the pond and for ideas for the rest of us, I found this website for Tay Log Cabins in Scotland that sells and builds small Finnish pine cabins. Most of these cabins are meant to be used for camping or as an income generating property, but I can see myself living in one of these pretty cabins. Tay Log Buildings are made from the very best slow growing Finnish pine from the forests of North Karelia, Finland.
These cabins are another example of when you build smaller, you can build with beautiful details. The Hobbit cabin with the use of reclaimed tree stumps and branches really fits in with the surrounding area.
Tay Log Cabins offer:
- Custom made cabins from wood so any design can be achieved
- Planed logs (95mm x 120mm) which can be assembled in standard designs measuring – 3m x 3m or 4m x 4m
- Precision manufacturing for ease of building and come complete with all wooden components and shingle roof
- Free design service
Most of these homes can be built for between £13,000 and £35,000 or $20,000 and $55,000.
Also in the UK is the Log Cabin and Offices Company which builds cabins out of Baltic timber from managed and sustainable forests. Their cabins can be used for summer houses, fishing lodges, garden buildings or offices.
All the cabins are available as supply only, supply and erect, or as a fully finished “Turn Key” project.
