That is a really nice looking barn. I would like to have one like that on my property. Can I copy it? Did you burn that wood with a torch to get that color, or is that stain of some kind?

Thanks for the comments @binaryflat !!! Yes, absolutely copy....matter of fact, I'll do a complete build "Post" from ground up in a few days. I documented everything with pictures, not realizing that a few weeks later I'd be joining Steemit!
The finish is Shou Sugi Ban...wood burning with torch for preservation...Man i'm 100% sold on that method and doesn't introduce foreign chemicals into the homestead soil like stains, etc
Gotta post on that upcoming too...setup..safety gear...application..the whole nine yards...
Thank you, that'd be great! You have done really well on here in a short period of time. Are you enjoying the experience?
It's actually been an awesome experience! The learning curve is steep, but it becomes 2nd nature after awhile. Your off grid cabin and future posts would do great is tags like #homesteading #homestead #homesteadersonline to name a few...keep up the good fight my friend!
