modus operandi: Ø currency invested, only reclaim & scrap from paying jobs used.
120cm x 90cm x 90cm
started at 9:30 this morning, finished at 14:30. It has an interesting assortment of materials. the two south posts were oak. I have no idea what they came from. the two north posts are cut from a single, broken, pressure treated post that was given to us by a Polish lady we sometimes trade with. the roof was framed in with one oak 1x4, two fir 2x4's and two fir 1x4's I only had to cut one of the 2x4's, the broken post, and the roof decking/FRP. everything else was oddly already a suitable length. the roof decking is 6.25mm plywood leftover from a window replacement job post-hailstorm. the white FRP is from a low-income housing bathroom remodel. the walls are from more temporary hailstorm window covers. all fasteners were leftover from a previous steel roof install and woodscrews were a combination of reclaim from salvage wood from the Polish lady, and some that were leftover from a framing job. 5 hours with a 30 min lunch break.
Tyrone is happy. he didn't even wait for me to finish the walls before he moved in. he's been living in full element exposure for the last 4 weeks since we removed him from the ewe pen. we will re-introduce him to his selected ewes for breeding on November 1st.

none of that looks like oak to me but I have been wrong before and I will be wrong again. why didn't you cut the boards to length? and why dig holes if you aren't going to concrete it in?t. finish carpenter

I have gotten quite a few oak boards and 4x4s from pallets. You can always tell because it weighs twice as much as the other boards.

Man imagine living your life in a 20x20 pen in an empty field surrounded by nothing. Not even some grass for that little guy to chew on. That must be what hell is.

I had a black Angus bull named Tyrone, and another named Jamal. They're both gone now. I've run through every common black name in the book for them...Currently we have Jasper, Ernie, Buford, Moose, Ferdinand, Max Anderson, and a couple others I can't even remember the names of right now.
