Where to start? I am partnering with a friend (and now neighbor) in a great little bakery. We have started the process of building a new structure to house the bakery and an 8 foot round, wood fired bake oven. Here are the preliminary plans.Here is the building site before we got started.
We started back in January '07 by clearing a small area for the bakery, and getting a few trees cut down to make space. Clearing doesn't take long with an excavator and experienced operator.
In early February, we had the logs milled into almost all the beams we'll need for the ceiling structure of the building. In mid-March, we had the site excavated, and we began the actual process of building. A friend and his crew take care of most of the difficult stuff, and we are told what to do, and do a lot of the monotonous jobs.
That will all change once the slab is done and we can get started on our new oven! The building will grow around us as we construct a great new wood fired bake oven. The foundation walls are done, and we are hoping to have the slab poured some time next week. It is very exciting to have things moving after talking about our plans for so long.
