Under construction behind the woodshop.
Note the two lagscrew eye-bolts to tow it and position it.
dimensions are 48x48 square.
Goal was to use Valhalla lumber wherever possible.

Foundation using matched green cedar logs.
Chainsaw was used to make a series of cuts and then an axe was used to chop the notch flat.
4" Lag Screws were used to fasten the 2x6's to the logs
We calculated that this is the 5th or 6th outhouse we've made at the farm over the past forty years!
