Ranch with mother in law apt

I have always felt it was bad luck to throw away old boots,  They have been at you beck and call and they deserve better than the trash heap

Although I have had better boots, these have done what they could given the quality of construction.  Three pairs of the same boot/ manufacture in 1 1/2 years.  Don't buy Wolverine Boots

working on the sun room siding

I worked in cabinet shop in Montana and that was my introduction to hand and power tools.  That was 1990.  I bought tools for my own arsenal based on what I saw and experienced.  My old tools consist of Porter Cable, Milwaukee  Makita, Between routers, jig saws circular saws drills etc, I have noticed a significant drop in quality and an increase in cost.  99% of those tools are still completely functional and serve me well.  However, tools I have purchased from Lowe's over the past couple of years have FAILED drastically, burn out burn up.  To date my Harbor freight or Wood Workers Supply Catalog tools are out lasting brand names for less than half the cost.  Tools, my suggestion is buy yard sale or pawn shop.  The saw mill, was a $2000.00 purchase, The framing package alone for the house was 7,000 not to mention the sheeting, sub-floor and finished floor and siding etc

Starting the inside

While I worked for Lowe's, I collected all kinds of lights, lamps, shower stalls, counter tops, fixtures, etc.  I could finish the house with conventional theme/ style, but I want to show off my creativity.  The toilet and shower/ tub are conventional and fiber glass, but the bath room vanities and kitchen are going to be what I like to call it "Cottage Chic"

Start of the kitchen sink.  Two 55 gallon tanks cut to size and a faucet from my  5.00 cart

Cheryl's Vanity
inch thick pine slab, 22-25 inches wide 65 inches long.  The bowl is made from a butt cut log and hollowed out with the table saw.  I got the fixture when I bought three carts of fixtures for 5.00

Arthur's normal vanity,  Special order return I got it for 20.00

Trash to cash

28 inch log stove, made from an old air compressor
Legs came from the steel frame of an RV I parted out

Door and ash tray were cut from the front and remounted,  The door with hand forged hinges
The ash pan came from a chunk of the old fuel tank from the dump truck, the tank leaked
I bent the stack mount out of some old scrap piece I had in a pile

Compressor rested on the flat platform that super sized with a piece of plate.
The top is 20 inches wide and 24 inches deep
I am going to put it in the house for aux heat

However it is for sale
