This is awesome! Always wanted one of these but my garden is far too small, one day though...
What was the stain you used for the exterior? Did you use any sort of preservative under the stain?

Really nice work. Also nice to follow a build that's not just a system

It's coming along eh! Stunning facility you have there.
Just one question, do the wooden walls, floor and ceiling not affect the acoustics in a negative way? Do you not get an echoey sound?

i thought so too i was scared of echo to be honest
But No,
Its fair better than my the room i was in Which was Sqaure!
Wood Absorbs the sound very well with no Echo Effect
i think the insulation helps too!
some places actually sell wood panels to put in your room to help the sound lol

Haha. So the difference in terms of room shape is the sloping ceiling? You'll have to invite a few of us round to prove that there is no echo.

Smogsy. When you ordered the cabin did they install it for you, aswell as lay the foundation? All included in the price if so ?
i put the base down they built it within the price though
Cabin Comes with Single glazing (upgradable) Heavy Duty Felt, Bigger Windows (I choose smaller style) & they call it Erection (or being built) lol
they can insulate it too but costs like 7 pound a square metre for roof or 4 pound for flloor
cheaper to do it yourself

I'm thinking of doing something of the same but on a slightly smaller scale. I have a foundation laid for my shed. And I need to get advice if I can just extend off of that.
