Super User Root beer Posted June 6, 2011 Super User Posted June 6, 2011 I want to buy one and put it on a mountain or on the side of a lake somewhere. http://blueridgeyurts.com/index.php Quote
SDoolittle Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 I was just looking at those last night! I don't think I'll get one though. I'm considering building one of theses: http://www.tumbleweedhouses.com/ Quote
Super User bilgerat Posted June 6, 2011 Super User Posted June 6, 2011 I'm not so sure about the yurt, but the little house looks intriguing. They say the trend is going toward smaller homes anyhow. I'm happy in my 3 bedroom rancher, I have no desire at all for the McMansions that litter the landscape these days anyhow. If you've ever been in or saw pictures of old homes, they were scaled down also. Quote
Super User clayton86 Posted June 7, 2011 Super User Posted June 7, 2011 Looks like the houses in the netherlands my mom sent me pictures of when she went there back in april. Quote
tallydude Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 I thought the small house was really cool. Kudos to him for finding his niche and going after it. Quote
Super User Bassn Blvd Posted June 7, 2011 Super User Posted June 7, 2011 Pretty cool, but no more farting indoors. Quote
royal0014 Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Yurt?? Looks like a fancy quonset hut to me. The little house would be ok for a weekender, no way I'd live in it.... Quote
GrundleLove Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 I was just looking at those last night! I don't think I'll get one though. I'm considering building one of theses: http://www.tumbleweedhouses.com/ if you were so inclined... you can get plans for these houses off of the net for free.. just saying. Quote
SDoolittle Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 if you were so inclined... you can get plans for these houses off of the net for free.. just saying. My brother designs and builds tiny houses. He is drawing some plans up for me. I just posted that link because it's a good website, and I wasn't sure how many people had heard of tiny houses. I'm thinking about building a plane jane model to use as a fishing cabin. Quote
Vance Jones Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 yeah there's no way i would live in or take refuge in one of those. don't see one of those surviving even an EF0 tornado let alone some of the wind storms we get here in the appy mountains. it would be a neat hunting/fishing "cabin" but that's the most i'd do with it.

Captin Obvious Posted June 8, 2011 Posted June 8, 2011 I always had a dream of making a seriously sick Tree house slash Man Cave. Quote
