What do you think, hon? On your lot, it would be the height of tropical living! :D

My neighbor across the road is building this by himself, cutting limbs off the trees with a machete, using a macana to dig post holes, and tying bundles of jaragua (sp?) grass on as a roof.

Just a guess, hon, but I would say $100 max. That's having to buy the jaragua grass plus delivery, and any details I can't think of. All of the other products came off his piece of land, and how freakin' awesome is it that no one told him what he could or could not do with own his property?!

I'll tell ya what, my neighbor has one of them here for a picnic area beside his home, when Hurricane Felix came thru and was ripping off zinc of the house tops (Mine included) that "Popta" topped, I guess you could call it a gazebo suffered no damage at all and was right out in the open to receive the brunt of the force but it was a four sided roof....

DDT you can build you one as a "Starter Home" to camp out in while being your own "Contractor" for that dream home with a pool....

Mr. Steve did it from a Wal Mart tent.....

BTW have you put something in the way of "Improvements" on your lot, like a dug well, cement marking posts on the boundaries things that are unlikely to be stolen, and registered them? Oooops, registered the improvements....

I did a post a while ago about the Rancho construction and the cost per square meter. I have to dig it up.

Now keep in mind these prices are that of a designed and built rancho from a professional company, I am sure you can bring the price down some if you design it, and get laborers that know what they are doing.

We have the fancy high speed intra web out here. I am having it built for me by a construction crew run by an aussie by the name of Clint Hooker. His email is cvhooker@yahoo.com . You should ask him what he can do. Not sure what it would cost as I bought a package deal land and house for 65k.

Yeah! Next to the hut was a pile of empty oyster shells and a trellis for smoking meats. It's located at the Ft. Caroline national park.

You and BB got it all wrong it's "BS" as in Before Stealing" the piece of land they built it on, no joke either,that's usually how a bunch will set up camp and stake their piece,some will place plastic walls on it.
