Timber Frame Cabin

Kent on 03 Jan 2008

In my search for more information on building tiny houses I stumbled across Mark van Roojen, a professor of philosophy at the University of Nebraska and his project and construction of a small 10 x 14 timber frame cabin in the back woods of Wyoming. His information will give you first hand experience on what is involved in this type of construction. Following are a couple of pictures of his cabin and a link to his site

Further progress.

The Timber-Framed Cabin Project

Mark says: I’ve started on a timberframed cabin project and I have been chronicling it here on my website. There are now too many images to put all on one page. So I have now divided it into five pages covering the following time frames. You can reach them by clicking on the link above or click Here.

If you know of other tiny house projects or have one of your own and would like to share it please post it in the comment section. Thank you!

I’ve only had time for a quick look, but I liked the reprinted article on the small log cabin and will spend some more time later looking at your other postings.
