Hey! @Pensmaster
 
I finally took a few more pictures of our latest building....

The styrofoam roof going up

Round fireplace. Opens into the living room and into the courtyard.

Perform block walls, pored concrete arches.


New building is in the center of two others that are almost finished. The compound will be horseshoe shaped with an atrium between new building and building on the right....

View from rooftop of building on right.

This white thing is a piece of the foam roof.

Is the foam for the roof hollow to fill or does it pour on top. Is it light weight concrete? Is this cost comparable to stick frame? Nice building site. Well water?
 
One more time for the cooler bator links? I found one out behind a building, which means it will never be missed... But working from memory and pricing components it isn't going to be cheap.

I am making a coolerbator for @sarasweatman as a gift because she is a friend and also very giving and kind. And would love her to have more bator space and a good steady incubation.....

I have ordered (I am making two of the same, keeping one as an extra)

Coleman 52-Quart Extreme Cooler, Blue

interior estimates 12"deep 10"x21" bottom


I CHOSE THIS COOLER BECAUSE I made a CHEAP cooler bator and I dont like its insulating factor so I will pay just a few more bucks to have a well insulated cooler like this one......

I got my major parts for two bators, @sarasweatman coming to your home soon!!
just need to get the minor shtuffss!!!!1



BTW this cooler interior is 10"x21" and 12" depth and its a 52 quart
If I do more after this I would go a bit larger on the interior. I forgot this cooler is a good thick insulated cooler and that takes up
space and makes the inside smaller. keep that in mind should you order any!
