Hello, I have been following your webpage here for great details on getting my cabin going.

I've decided on a 16x16 cabin and i used a concrete cookie with concrete pyramid foundation just as you did with the 8x12 cabin.
To anchor the cabin well to the ground i then cut 6x6 posts that were 6 feet long in half and dug them 3 feet into the ground into my sandy soil that has a lot of water in it so it provides great suction down on the posts and they are hard to get out so it makes a good anchoring system.

Anyway your website has been very helpful and i cant wait to start on the walls here in a few weeks.

For water im using a sand point and a pitcher pump but cant seem to drive it in the ground very well.
