Thought about framing the bathroom walls in 1x3 or 2x3 but if this house is located in a cold climate and hot showers with *real live running water* are desired the wall may need to contain plumbing. Hence, 2x4s continued their monopoly in the tiny house framing market.
Pre-drilled down through the loft floor into the studs at the corners (countersinking bit so that no screw heads stick up through the loft floor). At the bottom, angle brackets are used to connect the vertical joists to the stud plate. Not bad for an evening work session which included a dangit-we-ran-out-of-2x4s run to the local lumberyard. Next step here is to build out a closet from this wall into the main room of the house. Upcoming presidential candidate debate topics: will the tiny house contain a kitchen sink? Only time will tell.
Photon votes for a sink, in that they're very useful.
ReplyDeleteThe West Coast contingent of friends of the house where you're building a tiny house says hi :)
Another vote here for a sink, albeit a tiny one, of course. Are you planning to use that stamped steel plating seen in other WeeBee bathrooms? Love that stuff.
