Gravel makes sense, I was thinking concrete would be a lot material to haul. I put in a temporary Canadian Tire 12' X 24' garage before I built the cabin, did it in winter and cut 2 spruce logs to secure it to.
Are any particular make/model of the garage tents more/less reliable in your books Drifter? The tarps seem to be good for about 10 years in Whitehorse, with some rattier ones still around holding on older than that.
Love the build porn Dave, I hope you can get some more time to spend out there. IW
You win some, you lose some, Drifter. Won that one!I'm curious as to why you went with a pellet stove up there. I would think you have more dead trees than you could imagine in your neck of the woods?
The place should be air tight with the plastic over the insulation they way you have done it. To get better venting over the insulation on a 2x12 roof on a house I helped my cousin build he ripped 2x6's in half length ways then screwed them on the bottom side of the 2x12's. With 12 inches insulation that left a good space to vent the roof.That's what the pink Styrofoam things do.If you have not thought about it, I would suggest that you put a diverter above the chimney to prevent a snow slide from taking it down. I had to go fix a bunch of smashed vents that some others from the company I was working for did not put diverters over. Being a pole barn company they had quite a bit of galvanized angle iron that came with the steel when it was shipped. We made a V out of it long enough that we could lag screw it to the purloins.Yep, thought about it. Though it's only a 1/3 of the way down the roof from the top and it's on the side of the roof that gets hardly any snow buildup on it so not sure if I will install one or not yet.
Drifter Dave nice work keep the photos coming. How long do you figure that stove will take to get up to a comfortable temperature in the winter.
Dave, I noticed you have a grill we sell a lot of, at Camping World, the propane BBQ Tech
It's a cheap POS but it cooks meat so it's OK.
Gonna be able to test out the pellet stove this weekend.
