and there are many older homes that are timber frames, that have older standards of accommodation
you know what I mean?
yeah i feels you
like I live in Utah and there are houses out here built a 100 years ago people are still living in
the kitchens and rooms all feel so small
kind of like when my ancestors came to the US they were a good half foot shorter at least on average than i am
but back then people were just happy to have a warm place in the winter
Yeah I'm a tall guy... I need 8' walls at least
like a full bed might be nice for some people but i just dont fit comfortably
yeah
but if you were living back in the day, on the American Frontier, you're basically camping
and you'd be happy sleeping on pretty much ANY bed
its a paradox where big strong men want to build homes that smaller weaker ones design but they dont realize until its too late the house isnt suited for them
that's kind of what I mean... I like seeing how far we can go pairing things down to the bare essentials
yeah I'm pretty thorough. I don't think that'll happen to me
I have a pretty good lay man's overview of basic archtectural principles, and layout design. We'll just have to see
but it is something I want to get good at
I don't want to build junk, so I'll have to spend a few grand getting educated
i dont doubt that you do and its super easy to visualize or markout if you alreasy have the ability as an artist
yeah man, and I'm a sketchup pro
I think if you plan the house out well at first, you won't have floorpsace issues, in spite of the thicker walls
well that was about logs construction the walls are an issue
timber frame has the same floor plan issues but you can make a larger home but you are bound by timber length etc
i also dont usually talk to people about these things so could you give me feedback ..orchid obviously thought i was being a dick
I think he was just worried you were going to pick a fight
it almost seemed like that at first
"ayo hol'up... STICK FRAMING IS THE SHIT!"
lol
yeah im like goddam it if this guy is going to spread a larp
but clearly that didn't happen
dude yeah a lot of the log enthusiasts are just larpers
because they're attracted to the image of it
it's like a video game to them
thats what im worried about i always try and reel people back in ...i know everyone ahs dreams
but even then I think that's cool
I hope they achieve their dreams
I'd like to find log buidling methods that can be easy and can help people achieve their dreams
i hope people acheive action ..after that i really dont care
yeah sometimes I do worry about that
in the end I care more about the land
