Stone & Bamboo
Hey Stone, I was thinking about our next project—how about we design a tiny house that harvests its own rainwater and uses reclaimed timber? I know precision matters for you, and the planet could use a break from the usual. What do you think?
That sounds solid, but I’ll need a detailed plan before I start. Rain barrels, rain gutters, and a sturdy frame from that old barn beam—if we cut the timber cleanly, we’ll avoid any weak spots. I’ll get the measurements; you handle the permits?
Sounds good, Stone. I’ll grab the local regulations and make sure we have the right environmental clearances. While you nail down the measurements, I’ll sketch the layout—rain gutters, barrels, and that old barn beam turned into a sturdy frame. We’ll keep it sustainable and sturdy, no weak spots. Just let me know what the building codes say about recycled timber and we’ll be set.
Got it. I'll pull up the local code on recycled timber, check the required treatment and load limits, and nail down the exact dimensions for the beams. Once I have those numbers, we’ll confirm everything’s code‑compliant and ready to go.
Great plan, Stone. Just remember to double‑check the treatment needed for that barn beam—nature loves a good restoration. If we keep the load limits tight and the timber healthy, we’ll have a house that breathes with the wind. I’ll keep the permit paperwork in line, and we’ll make this little sanctuary a testament to sustainable living. Let’s keep it simple, strong, and green.
Sounds good—I'll finish the beam treatment check and lock in the exact dimensions. We'll stay tight on the load limits and keep the design simple but robust. Let's make it breathe.
That’s the spirit, Stone. Once you’ve got those numbers, let me know, and I’ll get the paperwork in shape. We’ll make sure the beam can hold up and the house can breathe like a living thing. Ready when you are.
