longgunner Woodsman Registered: 04/18/10 Posts: 177	Looking for information from anybody that has had a good experience with builders in West Texas for a Hunting Cabin. Prefer a medal building, not looking for a brick house or a log cabin, just a good place for the weekends.

Sparky45 Veteran Tracker Registered: 08/02/12 Posts: 2278 Loc: Big Country	There is several options for you You can get a Mueller Kit building and have someone put it up for you on a slab I have seen people buy two 20 foot shipping containers and set them about 12 ft apart and build a roof over the open area then you have a nice covered area outside for sitting around and one side for a cabin and the other side for storage check out the guy on Abilene Craigslist, he has finished and unfinished containers and he is out of Graham TX _________________________ The only easy day was yesterday NRA Life Benefactor Member

daulongranch Tracker Registered: 08/21/07 Posts: 919 Loc: Rowlett(Live)-Concho County(Ra...	David Finley does a heck of a great job on metal buildings. He used Mueller metal on the building I had built. During a recent hail storm many mobile homes and buildings were damaged. I only saw 3-4 tiny dents in the metal from baseball sized hail. David also built a metal house on the property next door to me. Structurally sound is putting it light. That building isn't going anywhere. My neighbor did like you plan to do by working when he had the opportunity to finish out the interior. You can reach David at 325-357-4706. He live at Concho Park at Lake O. H. Ivie. Lake Ivie is straight east from San Angelo and straight south from Abilene. He does take out of town jobs. Tell him Daryl sent you. _________________________ daulongranch - Live in Rowlett - Ranch in Concho County "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."-- Thomas Jefferson
