The first of the Tiny Texas Houses coming off the line.  See Tiny Texas House page for more pictures.  These are made from 95% vintage materials, yet the electric, plumbing, and insulation is new.  The ultimate in Green building and a home that will last another hundred years without the modern home out gassing and environmental issues.  This is what you do for fun when you get tired of just stacking up vintage lumber and Architectural Antiques.  Finished model pictures will be done for next week.
