Have you ever thought about building a steel-framed tiny house? That’s what Kim and Jay Merrett are doing.
I’m happy to show you their 240 sq. ft. 12′ x 20′ steel framed tiny house in the woods. You can see how they built it below. They’re still working on the interior. Pretty soon they will have a peaceful tiny cabin to enjoy for years to come. You can see their floor plan design below too.
I hope you enjoy looking at it and learning about it below. Would you consider building with steel instead of wood? Let us know your thoughts in the comments. Finally you can help us spread the word about it with the re-share buttons down at the bottom of this article.
