Homeschooling, homesteading, and other affairs of just plain livin’..,

  We are trying to find someone to help us with the reconstruction of our canning kitchen.  Pics were taken during the deconstruction last April.

  The first company I contacted left me with little hope.  He says, “I can’t even give you a plan, because that type of building isn’t recommended” and “we’ve only build one freestanding building, and it blew down in the wind, blew into an airport and into an airplane.”  That didn’t leave me with warm fuzzy feelings.  Not about MY building, but about his ability to construct them.  He wants us to either attach it to a building (not gonna happen, I told him), or build a stick built roof and use the panels for the sides (no, thank you).  He said he can get us a few parts, but that was about it.  And he said “get that tape off, it’s bad for it”.   Wha?

  The second guy contacted me and said he knew the company that origionally built this building, but just needs to allocate some of the pieces we told him that needed to be replaced.  At first I wasn’t left with warm fuzzy feelings, but our second contact left me feeling like there is hope.  He, as opposed to the first guy, actually sounds like he wants to help.

  So wish me luck, hopefully someone will come through and save the day!

    Waah…a builder cannot build a square summer room? Sounds fishy to me. Cannot think of the name now, but they are usually octagon shape…and this is square with screens. Basic, basic, basic. Me thinketh someone didn’t want to work in the damp & chilly.
