Bubba,

Here is a photo of the north facing exterior with an improvised hand made door. Notice the enormous barn door hinges .... they glide. The door was originally an interior hollow core door but with the addition of 1 inch planks on both sides it is now 3 inches wide and must weigh more than 100 lbs. I'll get a before photo of the door later. This new/old door is clad w/ 1" pine and cedar boards that have been weathered by years of exposure like the rest of the exterior. The building looks or looked like it should have been torn down or burned down. We've had quite a bit of fun doing this. My oldest son is moving in/out of the house amd into this remote building roughly 85 ft from the NE corner of our home and the back door. His drums and a few close friends w/ guitars as well as his recent graduation from HS prompted this renovation. I happen to get my own personal 250 sq ft office in the house adjacent to my BR as a result of this project. So there were multiple reasons for this project.
