Need Yurt platform built

Hi,

I need quotes on labor and materials for this yurt platform which will be built on a slight slope. 

http://www.yurts.com/images/media/24__Platform_Plans.pdf

It won't be bearing that much load so you can go with 2x6's instead of 4x6's and if you're creative, you could probably just use raw logs for most of the understructure, boulders for the footings and plywood for the deck.  A quote for that would be appreciated as well.  It's going to be built somewhere in the NH seacost area and needs to be completed by the first week of September. 

Thanks,
Rob

Interesting. I'll be moving to the area around the time you want it done. If I'm around and you still need this done, we should get in touch. I'm no master craftsman by any chance, but I can work cheap!

Rebel Rob

Sounds good.  Got a way I can contact you or should I just wait for yours?

I'd wait for someone else's and go w/ them first if I don't get to you 1st week or Sept or so. To be honest, I've built decks before but that's about it. I can follow directions really well and figure stuff out, but I'd be lying if I said I was a certified yurt-master.

Okay.  Thanks for the reply.  Hopefully I'll be giving you a call.

Cool I'm going to PM you w/ my contact info so you have it. I can also do various other construction related grunt-work like painting, refinishing floors, hauling away junk, etc. Anything for my fellow porcs! :D

The decks already been constructed, but I'll have other projects you could help with soon.
