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.
Over kitchen towards dining room
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.

Wow just wow! My friend demolished an old house once and used the seasoned timbers to do a self build. He got paid £2000 to demolish the house too so the self build was pretty cheap.

@meggie I bought my timbers from an Amish sawmill total cost for the timbers was $6,200 US dollars and $275 for a log truck to deliver them. I saved hundreds of thousands of dollars this way.
