You can do miracles with rotten wood and rusty nails. (With Pictures)



Welcome to the inn.

It`s awesome what you can do with rusty nails and rotten planks of wood. Like this inn, holding on buckets filled with cement. This is basically a front view that is really cute and all...
We are planning on eventually putting cedar planks to finish the outside of the inn, and hanging some lights outside the door. Also we will have a big plaque with a gold lion painted on it.


Another view of the front. We could use a bit more windows but I guess it's better to have less so that we can't break what's not there.

If it wasn't for the buckets, the inn would be in deep shit since the ground is NOT level and even if we tried digging, there are about 2 inches of dirt before you hit solid rock.



On this side of the inn, we actually didn't repair much. the bunch of bricks in the foreground is our fire pit... And that window you see had the nostril prints of an Orc for half the summer.

The window also lets us keep an eye on the fire from inside.



This is the back wall. this is the most finished wall of the whole building.

Well, the leftmost window is actually broken so it's a gaping hole... but we shut it with planks so the snow wouldn't come in.

And here is the point were I realise we went to repair the other side of the inn and I didn't take pictures of it... Just imagine that the triangle between the wall and the roof is missing. But now it's not.



So like I was saying, here is how we repair a window.  We just put planks randomly and drive nails into the beams.

We are still unsure if we will repair the window or just cut a door and make an outside veranda to have barbecues in order to be able to cook more food.




This is a corner! duh. With Marie-Helene, one of the DMs, being cheerfull since we are repairing the inn.
The window behind her is the one we can see the fire from. And there is another window behind the plank of wood.

The bench has been repaired (it was loosing it's legs) by driving nails into each and every interlocking part.

We are awesome.


As you can see in the corner, the triangle had not been entirely repaired yet.
Also we have a new shelf unit! that makes 2 shelf units!
We'd see them better if it wasn't for Ewen's butt. But it's fine, she has a nice butt.

And we see part of the bar... full of stuff...
It will be repaired to. We like the bar, but it's nice to have some storage AND some counter-space. and the counter is way to high anyways.
But it's understandable, the people who built it are all super tall.


Here we have Ben, the other DM, installing planks of wood so we can install hooks for coats and cloaks. We also built a cage/ box/ thingydo to put weapons so they won't be everywhere.

Ben said that the nails that Marie bought were flimsy pieces of crap... but he was the only one to complain... (Marie, I think Ben would like his balls back...)

Also we changed the door knob so now the door stays closed and LOCKS! No more will we need to put a table in front of the door to prevent the wind from opening it.


And last picture, same corner where Marie was.
Eventually we will put plastic lining, fibreglass insulationg, more plastic lining and close the walls... but that is for the future.

For the moment, we are happy to have a door that locks, no holes in the walls and chairs you can sit on without falling.

We accept donations to make this inn better!

Just send them to the DMs!
