Building a house, and a family, one step at a time.
How can you create a home that’s more welcoming, more inviting, and more people will be blessed by entering? Well we’re not entirely sure, but here’s a sample of what we’re doing to try to create a Home for Hosting. On this site you’ll find how-to’s, stories, a build blog, and product and technique reviews on what we like, what we’d do differently, and what to avoid when building your own home.
(Oh yeah, we are still very much building this site and importing a ton of posts over from our previous home building blog which was pretty haphazard. BUT, we are already getting some pageviews despite not yet sharing it anywhere, so if you happen to stumble upon this site somehow, please check back later when we’ve got it all prim and proper!)

nik The post with the most (weight)
This 10×10″ timber post is pretty important, carrying a lot of the weight of beams and even a lot of the roof structure. Here it is in its early construction.
nik Kitchen beams waiting to be mounted in the ceiling, timber post and knee brace in the background.
nik “Add new post.” Ha, there, I added a new post. This one has four beams going off it, at three different heights. Yeesh.
