DIY – How to build your own lofthouse
Here’s a kit you can buy that comes with everything you need to build your own little lofthouse. I wonder if it’s earthquake proof…. probably not.
Lofthouses are two-story, gable roof houses. They are sold as pre-cut, pre-drilled kits, and are designed for assembly by two inexperienced owner-builders.
The rugged post & beam frame is assembled from heavy-duty, single and double chord floor trusses and pre-cut, pre-drilled lumber. Plated steel bolts, nails and hardware fasten together structural members. Illustrated step-by-step construction manuals make assembly easy. All materials for the shell are included: framing, flooring, siding, roofing, trim, screened sliding glass doors, and windows. Lofthouses are packaged in manageable lots that can be carried to remote building sites.
