We looked into building a log cabin. Found out homeowners insurance on those things is redunkulous, so we opted out of it.

Not a log cabin, all lumber was sawed off trees from my place on my saw mill. It's a guest house.

They do have some plans there for log cabins and timber frame.

Best bet is to buy a kit.

Follow adhouseplans on Instagram. There is also another one to follow that actually has plans. They are not all log cabins, but I do think I have seen a few on there. Let me find it..

I found some plans for mid century Acadian style houses and scaled them down and built houses for my golden doodles!

There’s only two situations where it makes sense to build your own cabin as a vacation home.

A: You have more money than you know what to do with and your kids and grandkids are set for life

B: You inherited a beautiful piece of land in a desirable location that is otherwise worthless without a cabin.

Sure did. Took about 3 weeks give or take a day or so.

Like it?

A Company Is Building 3D-Printed Homes For Just $10,000
quote:

A Texas-based company is using 3D printing technology to find a solution to the growing problem of affordable housing around the world.

Austin startup ICON unveiled a new method of mass producing small homes with a massive 3D printer in a process that the company says takes just 12 to 24 hours. At the annual film and innovation festival known as SXSW, the company showed off how it could construct a 650-square-foot house out of cement in one day.

Partnering with housing solutions nonprofit New Story, the Texas builders are hoping to achieve their vision of creating sustainable, “quality homes accessible to everyone.” ICON isn’t just focused on building homes fast, but is aiming to make them extremely affordable as well. Using an industrial sized Vulcan printer, ICON says it can currently build their single-story home for $10,000 but is working to drop that cost to just $4,000. “It’s much cheaper than the typical American home,” ICON co-founder Jason Ballard told The Verge.

In comparison, some Americans have chosen to downsize into “tiny homes” which can cost nearly $40,000 and are only between 200 and 400-square-feet in size. “(ICON) believes, as do I, that 3D printing is going to be a method for all kinds of housing,” New Story co-founder Alexandria Lafci added.

The presentation at SXSW comes after a report from the World Resources Institute estimated that 1.2 billion people live in cities without affordable or secure housing. The partners are hoping to build a community of 100 3D-printed homes in El Salvador next year.
