Building my own dream home, myself.

Newest progression pics for those that follow my project. Wired up insulating and covering with actual boards. I hung antique rusty wagon wheels with boat anchors and antique chains to turn into chandeliers in the kitchen, dining, and Livingroom. Started make my own kitchen cabinets too to keep the rustic narrative going as well, I am looking at cabinet door designs and hardware presently for the doors to the cabinets I have built so far.

Antique metal wheels I hung with boat anchors and chain for chandeliers over dining room and kitchen.

Smaller wheels over the living room for lights. You can see the stair railing in the background. Going into the woods today to harvest more poplar trees to finish up the railing upstairs.

That's very cool. The angle of the ceiling suggests a barn style or Dutch Colonial style roof.

@BizSuitStacy Yes when building the trusses lying flat on the second floor each truss was also the second-floor wall beams. Gambrel room. And why each truss was 2500 pounds apiece and had to be raised with a crane.
@WillaKissing Wow. I am impressed. Keep us updated with your project.
