anyone building one this summer?

I am heading up to finish up the trim and everything next weekend... will get some up to date pics taken.

If a gun kills people then I can blame a pen for my misspells?

For the first time in many yrs, I am not building a new fishhouse. I will be doing some work to the 6 I already have in order to make them more efficient and comfortable.

Number one on the list is to look at my portables and do the annual patch the holes routine. Which usually takes a day all itself.

Then the school house needs to have stereo installed and TV shelf built and have been thinking about a different heating system.

My two hole spear house should be paneled to keep the insulation from falling out during transport. As well as make a trailer that drops down so I don't have to find friends to help load and unload it.

The albatrose is in need of some window repair as well as find a leak that has been going on now for ten yrs. I fix it every yr or so I think but can't find the leak. It's got enough caulking, silicone and roofing tar on it that I'm sure it's doubled in wieght since I built it. ???

 Handle every stressful situation like a dog.  If
                        you can't eat it or hump it.

                         Piss on it and walk away

  I like your house Al.  What size is it?  Did you build it yourself?  Is it fairly light?
