Majestic cookstove

The brand of this stove is Majestic. They picked the right name didn’t they?

A handmade shed
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T11:05:15+00:00
Even a handmade shed can be a joy to behold, when it’s well designed, makes use of local materials, and it’s located in just the right spot.
Now image this new shed in the same place…

Fresh hewn logs
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T11:05:13+00:00
Here is fine example of new logs that have been recently hewn with a broad axe in the traditional manner. The finished result is attractive, will last for centuries, and if the labor involved was done by the cabin’s owner (not factored into the cost)… these logs are much cheaper than those found in any log home kit. The only downside is that these logs should be allowed to cure for a couple of years before chinking.

A highly detailed small home
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T11:05:12+00:00
Just look at all the detail in this small home!
Amazing.
If I had to guess I’d assume this was a mail-order home. Just pick the house you want out of the catalog and have it delivered, assembly required.
I wish the company that created this home package was still in business.

It’s time to turn your dream cabin into reality
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T11:05:11+00:00
For those who get to kick back in their cabins and not have to rush off to a job in the city… a tip of the hat to you!
For those of you that had to lock up their cabin yesterday and head back to “real life”, just know that that cabin is waiting there for you.
And, for those who dream of having that special place in the country, whether log, or stone, or timber frame… set a goal for the near future that you take those first steps in turning that dream of a handmade house into reality.

Never build a log home with a kit
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T11:05:10+00:00
Log cabin kits always seem to fall so short of the standard provided by our ancestors. The “handworked” surface added to this kit in no way resembles that of the vintage cabin also pictured here. I will never understand how some view the act of abusing new wood as “aging”.

Irish stone cottage
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T11:05:09+00:00
Hundreds of years old, and yet more attractive than any new home that I’ve ever seen.

Weather forecasting stone
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T11:05:08+00:00
Stones can be handy for things other than building, like making soup, or forecasting the weather…

Classic farmhouse design
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T11:05:07+00:00
Here we have one of the appendages to George Washington’s home… Mt Vernon.
Amazing isn’t she?
So simple, yet perfection, found in simplicity.
