Introduction: Mini House
The house we are building is a 1.5M by 1.2M with a height of 1.92M
The materials needed are,
2 1.2M 2x4
2 1.5M 2x4
4 1.92M 2x4
A tarp that mesures around155m by 2m
Many nails I would recommend 1 1/2 inches and 3 inches
A pylon wood piece mesuring 1.3M x 1.2M
Step 1: Cutting the 2x4
The first step is cutting 8 2x4 in order to create a frame
The cut can be done in any way they just have to have the following lengths
2 pieces with a length of 1.5m
2 pieces with a length of 1.2m
4 pieces with a length of 1.92m
Step 2: Beginning the Frame
After cutting all the 2x4 to their respective mesures we can begin with the frame
Grab the 1.5m pieces and the 1.2m pieces
Place the 1,5m pieces parallel to each other and then follow it up by putting the 1.2m pieces on top of each of the 1.5m pieces. The 1.2m peices should be parallel and at each side of the 1.5m pieces. After this nail all pieces together to create the bottom part of the frame
Step 3: Making the Floor
grab a piece of pylon wood with a thickness of 2 inches. After that cut it so that is has a measurement of 1.3m by 1.2m in order to allow it to fit in the frame made before
Step 4: Placing the Floor
Once the pylon wood floor is finished place it on top of the 1.5m 2x4. After that nail it on both side in order to connect both pieces
Step 5: Making the Stands
Grab the 4 1.92m meter 2x4
At the end of each piece make a 23 degree angle cut
After making such cut place both pieces of wood together and nail them up together in order create a triangle shape
Step 6: Placing the Stands
After cutting the boards into angles and nailing the together place on of the on each side of the house. They should be running thought the long length of the house.
When that is done nail them to the bottom part of the frame. Try to use 2 or 3 nails per side to assure the house stands
Step 7: Putting the Tarp
The tarp will function as the walls and celling like a teepee
Try to buy a tarp that is 2m by 1.55m or something close to it. Also preferably it thick.
This last step is simple, spread the tarp throughout the stands and nail it up to all of them in order to create a triangle shaped ceiling after that it is all done
