    11:10 in the video, where you show how the base was built, what are the supporting metal pieces you have on the main post to support the sides? Only a corner visible.. did you guys also use screws for the sides or just those brackets to secure?

    Turn your horseshoe around... you are pouring out all your luck. "According to the old wives tale, a horseshoe is considered lucky because it is believed to ward off evil spirits, with the crescent shape symbolizing the moon and protecting against the "evil eye"; the most common practice is to hang a horseshoe over a doorway with the open ends pointing upwards to "catch" good luck."

    Stones are more stable when they are stacked with the seams of the second row stones meeting in the center of the stone on the first row and so on. The stones on the end of every other row will have to be cut in half to fit.

    I once built a similar trellis using 1/2" conduit for the upper cross pieces. My tomato plants got so heavy, the pipe sagged. I hope your wood will be stronger. The following year, in the spirit of overkill, I used plumbing pipe for the vertical and cross pieces. I even planted the two vertical pieces in concrete. No sagging. However, those white strings like you're using snapped under the weight of the fruits on the vine. Further, the little white clippy things every tomato grower on YT recommends, became so brittle under our NM sun that they shattered and scattered. But, my biggest problem was that, perhaps due to a longer growing season than you have there (?), my vines ran out of places to grow. I think next year I'm going to try a cow panel arched trellis. That'll give my vines lots of support and 16 ft to grow on.

    Stone floor, even gapped for water drainage would assist in warming in winter as the stones would absorb heat and release later?

    With the steel footers the corner posts sit in, wouldn't water get down in there underneath the post and still cause rot? That's just my thinking anyway but I live in Australia, in an area where wet rot isn't a thing. We don't get much rain. Lovely little house I have visions of creating my own one day when I have enough windows.

    I am building (almost) exactly what you built. I've got all the windows and lumber but haven't started yet because all I have is the idea of what I want but not the knowledge of how to build it and Oh, how I wish you had videoed your build. I've been doing research and looking at blue prints and then doing it all over again. I Will build it this year. Thanks for the run through of your build. I may have to make friends with a builder so I can have some expert advice.

    • @TheCrockerCottage
      @TheCrockerCottage 10 месяцев назад

      Having advice from someone is a good idea. Most important part is to get the foundation right…and that it can support the weight of the remaining structure. Good luck!

  • @kathryngarven7171
    @kathryngarven7171 11 месяцев назад

    Did you install the windows before you lifted the walls into place or after?

    • @TheCrockerCottage
      @TheCrockerCottage 10 месяцев назад

      After. I premeasured the openings as we built the walls. Once the walls were up I placed each window in with screws temporarily and once everything was done, I permanently put them in. But you definitely want to put your wall up without the windows.

    Great project! And a really nice combination of reused material and new wood/concrete to make solid foundations. With the greenhouse spared the scorching rays of summer afternoons but able to get full sunlight in winter, it sounds like maybe the placement was actually perfect? Also, those look like cobblestones to me, and those are *very* expensive where I live. Amazing to have found nearly 3,000 of them on your property!
