It’s no secret that many of us within the self-reliance movement would absolutely love to build a survival cabin in the wilderness…
Both to enjoy on the weekends AND to serve as a bug-out location in a long period of social/economic turmoil.
The problem for most of us, as it is with most dreams, is being able to afford this dream.
Buying property costs money, then on top of that you have to somehow finance the materials and construction of your idyllic “cabin in the woods.”
Fortunately for any of you “log cabin dreamers,” there’s a virtual army of peppers, survivalists, nature-lovers, and mortgage-haters out there working on this problem 24/7 — and sharing the solutions they find in great detail.
It’s pretty amazing really, the amount of creativity and innovation that’s gone into developing new, inexpensive ways to build cozy, rural cabins for less than the price of a sedan…
For those of you looking for a simple, budget-friendly cabin blueprint that’s well within your reach in terms of time, cost, and skill-level, I urge you to take a look at these 5 videos:
I sell Derksen buildings made of LP Smartside. It is surviving termite hills in Hawaii – termite proof! You can buy on a ‘rent to own basis’ with no credit check. These are ‘house built’ with full size 2×4 studs, plywood floors (treated at no extra cost), metal or shingles (30 yr roofs). Built to withstand 150 mph wind gusts. Come see me! 19500 Kenswick Dr. Humble, TX 77338. 281-827-6737
These are nifty ideas. Power and running water are optional, helping to minimize building code problems. Anyone with 10 acres or more could fit something like these ideas in a secluded location. More ideas can be found if you google “Tiny House,” for compact living areas, too.
I get sound but no picture. When I run along the play bar I can see very small pictures but that is it.
I AM EXTREMELY INTERESTED IN BUILDING A CABIN OF 800 SQ FT OR SMALLER WITH A LOFT AND A COMERED PORCH
Keep me posted on small cabins.
Interested
Do you have any brochures or pictures and a price list?
Thanks
