Building a Custom Shed Roof Awning for an Off Grid Cabin in the Mountains

What's the first thing that comes to mind when YOU think of an awning? Well, this is no store-bought awning made of canvas or plastic; this is a real, custom-made, shed-roof awning built out of wood and steel from scratch.

How? It's actually quite simple! Think of how a roof is built, and how a deck is made. The characteristics of this awning fall somewhere in between. Follow along and by the end of this episode, you'll be heading for the lumber yard with visions of your own cool and functional awning!

Ok, maybe you won't rush out the door to build your own, but I think you'll like how this one turns out. Let me know if this is what you were imagining, and what you think of the Spur Cabin awning once it's complete.
