The day was gray, but the wind was absent, a necessary condition for the job of the day: hoisting the roof to its final timber frame home, the Wee Cabin House. Located near Ely, MN, the Wee Cabin House joins a delightful hamlet of Wee Cabins created by Eric and Dayna Mase. What a process - from the leveling to the crane, to the connecting of the roof to the cable, to the pause in breathe when the lift was initiated, and the slow, guided move up and over to the house structure, not to mention all of the building and prep work. And... how fun to see the practical application of those theoretical Statics calculations from the days of physics class!
