Material List

I selected White Pine over White Oak mainly due to the weight difference. I actually had (1) quote with oak being cheaper than pine but between considering the trailer weight and the thought of lifting the (2) 6x6x20' purlins above our heads - pine won out.




The cabin will be 14x16' w/ a 4' porch in the front, (3) bent, and a 12/12 pitch roof.
