We are always asked how much will my home cost? But before we can really answer that we need to find out some things. 1 is will you be doing "sweat equity" ? You might ask what does sweat equity look like....there are many ways to get involved in your project. Some want to do as much as possible and others may say I think we can paint. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last weekend we made a trip to the Wenatchee, WA area ( actually in a small town called Magala) to help a couple that are doing sweat equity on their home in the finishing touches and so here are some before and after photos of a project we helped them with. </div>

<br />
Here is a look at them and the location.<br />
<br />
Jewel, OR. which is located off Hwy 26 on the way to Seaside. This project started this last winter and right now they just got sheet rock installed and are working on the rest of the interior finishes.<br />
<br />

<br />
Dundee, OR ( in the heart of Oregon's wine country SW of Portland ). This project has the logs almost stacked.<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And the last but not the least is located at Crescent Lake Junction ( which is off Hwy 58 ). This is a replacement cabin for the family which had a old A Frame that they torn down and we are building a stick frame cabin on the same spot. They are just at the framing stages of this. </div>

We get ask if we only do Log Cabins. So I wanted to share<br />this cabin our crews did last summer. This cabin is<br />a 2 bedroom w/ large loft . Over all sq. ft. is 1200.<br />Isn't it cute ? We are doing another cabin like this<br /> if you would like to see either one or<br /> want more info please contact us...

That took me to the thought of showing you some photos of our home in the beginning and then now. </div><div style="text-align: center;">So this photo was taken from our loft looking down on a wood stove that we bought used thinking it would be a start for us. And then as we stacked the logs on this wall we also thought maybe someday in the future we would want to ad a garage onto this end of the house and so behind the picture we planned to cut in a door. </div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguQk-Ga7pPGBNkYvzZE2YsOs-6FeeHCczf_FSwgoOgSokL-q0qDsmgjvhnGw2t3OxmRiGVi6_yx1TG-HPfuL8nGkvmQeZpFdUxOTuvwI8TyuRQ24_kvTfv-nyMAFby4zvGXwC3zMoXv7w/s1600-h/Ours+from+the+loft.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEguQk-Ga7pPGBNkYvzZE2YsOs-6FeeHCczf_FSwgoOgSokL-q0qDsmgjvhnGw2t3OxmRiGVi6_yx1TG-HPfuL8nGkvmQeZpFdUxOTuvwI8TyuRQ24_kvTfv-nyMAFby4zvGXwC3zMoXv7w/s320/Ours+from+the+loft.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381813791993889762" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">So as you can see in this photo the door is in and Cliff & Justin ( our son) are starting to cut out the logs in the part of the wall to to add a true wood burning fireplace.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhsJUTRXAZOCWJ2sN41iO8TXLdFwXssnivVW2C9r8R9tLeOMHT4bQUwbWUO6bFHp2hcWgJTwEDgMSPacai2f-Iw2Oj8WUdDv2sZ5a485aerrRHTpOU5Mk3Hed8zvFONXdfCPw9DpHwOZUc/s320/First+logs+out+of+wall.JPG" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381813460168881394" /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlj3F9veDY3ryxhv6EWnuuQ9F4ov9CzYj8LFqIgbYpUUFP2DSBNm9o4tDdY3RDiMzL93IQWM8DDitTJzu9zAkBv7P6Qw_sLbbHFMCuwuvb0NEhBviCSaxAtOCKY_Fl76RI4gmqoHL7dsY/s1600-h/Removing+logs+in+wall.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlj3F9veDY3ryxhv6EWnuuQ9F4ov9CzYj8LFqIgbYpUUFP2DSBNm9o4tDdY3RDiMzL93IQWM8DDitTJzu9zAkBv7P6Qw_sLbbHFMCuwuvb0NEhBviCSaxAtOCKY_Fl76RI4gmqoHL7dsY/s320/Removing+logs+in+wall.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381813624471001058" /></a><div style="text-align: center;">Above they are almost done taking the logs out.....funny Cliff thought wow this will be easy but it didn't happen to be that easy.... they had to cut each log out.

We love the wood fireplace nothing can match the feel, smell or sound of that crackling fire. You are correct it isn't the most efficient way to heat but we have a heat pump for that. You can also see we have a glass door that connects up to our new entry and the 30x30 garage that was added. Above the garage is our office....come see us sometime we love to share our home which is also our model! </div>Chrishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09676340777588456615noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7226853854068908146.post-63658786456350961132009-08-19T14:04:00.000-07:002009-08-19T15:52:44.916-07:00The "D" family moved in and held a party for all who helped!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLZRo-rrRnQU6ht4Mi6t8eAQEBZIFQ5mPi9muXcXLYoY2l4c5PK3FQ-_6-L2k-roBm-P45tdyFXbldmPKJYmBNhrs4ChpTa7pCSzsS88yA5PeIGogR2i0aFef4qkyTwoqzJuXcP5E8MHI/s1600-h/+email+8-8+look+from+street+below.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer;
