Emily C Redo

I wasn't too happy with the roof pitch and low headroom in the cabin so last weekend I rebuilt the gables to steepen the roof. It was a lot of work but I like it a lot better now. It also allowed me to make the doorway taller. I had to take off the door frame lumber and decided to make some new boards with the chainsaw instead of carrying in additional lumber for it. It takes about an hour to saw a short log this way. There are hundreds of dead, dry lodgepole pine trees around so it is easy to get logs.
