Building
Working on the old greenhouse area again. Plastic is off of part of the back wall and getting ready to start on the foundation under the front door. Planing on starting with a 2x6x16 8 feet above the existing floor line across the back wall of the greenhouse and extending out to the mobile home. Will drop a 4×4 treated post from there to the foundation at the corner and then frame the door in from that side, extending the header over to the side of the qhut and anchoring it into the metal there. Will fill the qhut side with cans, bottles, old electronics, as the mood and material strikes my fancy. And I got a LOT of fancy to strike at with all the junk around here.
Want a shed type roof to extend from the top of the qhut to the edge of the trailer or a bit beyond. Still working the mechanics there. Have thought of putting a deck above the door with the flooring the top of the roof. I may just put a tin or tire roof on it for now and add a deck to the top later. Tis all gonna happen later anyway so guess that should go without saying.
Junk building at this scale should be interesting. I got most of the materials or will make do other than the concrete. Need to check with the plant in Ragland and see what they charge by the 55 gallon drum. There is supposed to be a guy that delivers and will pick up your empties and drop off filled drums but haven’t gotten the 2 different people that have said they would ask about it to do so. Need to just get a name and call him myself if guess.
Guess I will get back at digging the foundation trench. Doesn’t seem to extend an inch without me being there digging… 🙁
