I am new to the site...thought I would post a few photos of
my cabin during Christmas Day Snow...a very rare happening
in the South. We are a 16 x 20 with a pull-down ladder to
a 6 x 20 loft...full bath with shower and full kitchen.
We're in the process of converting to total off-grid solar.
Check out my Christmas Snow pics.

Very nice! That air conditioner is going to require a lot of solar panels.

What a great looking place. Looks real tidy and well made. In fact it looks way better than our house! Hmmmm, so when does a "cabin" become a "house"?
Looks like you have lots of exposure for solar. Are you planning on placing the panels on the house or on separate brackets?
When you have a pix I, and others I suspect, would like to see the interior.

I am a retired homebuilder, this a long time want to do, that I finally had time to do. Plan to build several others in the near future and totally off grid. This is a very small version of some larger plans I have designed and built.

RWinSC, I notice in one of your response you are a retired home-builder and didn't know if you still contracted anymore. My wife and I are empty nesters and love what you have done. We can defiantly see quality in what your pictures. We are located in the lower part of SC and would like to do something similar to this. Again nice job!

Excellent use of space, when I saw the picture of your foundation I was thinking you would be bumping elbows. But after seeing how you laid everything out it looks perfect.

I see you have a small AC unit mounted on the wall. What do you use to power it, generator? If so, what size generator? Does it cool it off with that size of a cabin?
