You can see the two stairs logs in place

now we have to winch up the loft joists here.jpg Not much room for the backhoe anymore

We build a lift system for the stairs logs.jpg.jpg.jpgagain cannot afford much lumber and I have an idea

Winch those heavy hard woods in place

IMG_1687

Now we add the steps...easy with a chain saw and band saw. One log cut in two will make most of the steps
