ME Hardies

Hi. Welcome to ME Hardies. My name is Bill and I recently retired from the military. Since retirement, my family decided to settle in Maine and we've gotten into doing house renovations and DIY projects. One of our most significant projects is trying to build a semi-off grid cabin, or set of cabins, we call our Shottages. They are two 12x24 sheds on which we are doing a budget build, shed to cabin conversion. Some might call these conversions a Shabin or Shamp, but since our property is in Downeast Maine and on the Atlantic Ocean, we opted to call them The Shottages.
We are making every attempt to do this tiny house/tiny cabin-style build as a mostly debt free self built home. Until we are able to build a house closer to the water, we will be living semi-off grid with composting toilets and an off-grid shower in the bathhouse.
