Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

Sure you can convert one of these and live in it yourself, but come on, you've already got a place to live! Don't you think maybe your chickens would appreciate nice digs like this?

Extension ladder will get you to the bottom, of the upstairs window.




This was January................it is 3 feet from the ground, to the first floor doorjamb...............so @ 12' to the loft floor, @15' to the upper window sill.............no way can we reach the tippy top.
I am wondering about building some kinda cat walk outside that window......................

The green ladder you see in the loft, is a 12 footer........
my ex was a drywall taper/finisher who had to do some amazing feats with cathedral ceilings. I still "think" like a taper. Since you have a window upstairs, you might be able to make a platform to hang outside the window to stand or sit on, or maybe just lean far enough out that you can aim a sprayer or use a long, long roller on a handle. The platform would be supported by 2x4's inside. Remember those drive-in restaurant trays they would hang over your car window ? ( Sonic, etc)? Something like that. I can make a sketch....

very cool!

I saw a company on CL that does renovations from shipping containers, but not quite as snazzy. I always thought the containers should have doors on the FRONT, not just the end, so they are more useful. This comopany makes roll-up garage doors and entry doors along the long side of containers to make them more useable.
