Heading up the stairs, you will see one of the home’s unique features. There is room underneath the stairs for storage. The office nook includes a desktop which was made from American walnut.

Passing through the handcrafted arch top door, here is the beautiful living area which awaits you:Īs you can see, luxurious finishes were used to give this home a look and feel which is at once rustic and lavish. It is wonderfully evocative of a western feel, which fits in well with the Red Mountain theme. The distinctive siding on the exterior is a combination of rusty corrugated wainscot, cedar shakes, and barn wood board and batt. The home is constructed on a 34’ bumper pull chassis, and is the largest tiny house designed by Rocky Mountain Tiny Houses. Because it is a particularly dramatic region, the designer who felt inspired by it wanted to save that name for particularly special tiny house. “Red Mountain” takes its name from a region in Colorado between Silverton and Ouray which features some spectacular mountain peaks with unusual red hues which result from the presence of iron oxide. Now I want to share another amazing tiny house designed by the same company with you, called “Red Mountain.” Any advice on attaching it to the metal trailer frame would be very helpful.Recently we featured a tiny rustic cabin called “Stanley” by a company called Rocky Mountain Tiny Houses. However, I want to make it as light as possible, yet secure. I am to pull it with my 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan that can tow up to 3500 lbs.
#Tiny rustic cabin how to
I have a vague idea of how to start but am not sure how to make it sturdy enough to make it highway safe. Any advice to my email address would be helpful. I am hoping to be able to live in it and not be confined with my current restrictive low income living apartment that I currently in. I live alone and a friend of mine said she’d help me build it, as she has the tools. That is the only part that makes me uneasy about building one by myself. So, I have ordered books to show me how to securely attach the studs to the trailer. I have a 6×12 trailer with small metal sides on it. I am living on about $800 a month social security. I haven’t started yet because I have limited construction experience and not enough money to hire some one to assist me. There is a storage area under the bed that could house a port-a-potty. It is not equipped with a bathroom, from my past experiences camping I always used their facilities so why waste the space.
#Tiny rustic cabin full size
I didn’t want to sacrifice any more floor space to make room for the full size bed. On the nose I came off the corbeled ledge on a 17 degree angle for 3 feet.

I wanted an 8 x 12 so I made corbels for the sides and front which got to 8 x 11. It’s mounted to a 6 x 10 single axle trailer. This story is about a rustic looking little cabin on wheels.

If Kent is interested in that build I’d love to share it with you. After researching a few months I decided to build one, and did. At night I like to surf the web and look at interesting things.

These little projects got boring after a year or so. I started off small with things for around the house. It has opened up a world of possibilities to create different projects. This is probably the best and most used tool I have ever invested in. I went to wally world and purchased a baby monitor to listen for her if she needs help (she’s confined to a hospital bed) while working outside. Looking for something to do to occupy my spare time without leaving her by herself, I decided to drag out my woodworking tools and work in the garage on little projects. I retired a few years back to help my wife, who’s health is failing.
