I like it. Fix something for yourself without hurting others and without complaining. Getting shit done in optima forma.

May I ask you where this is, without getting into specifics of course. Western Europe?

Western USA. Due to rarely used loophole in my county this is all legal if you DIY everything (no commerce so most regulation drops off) and I got permit explicitly exempting from code inspection.
Ah okay, that explains. I recently watched a video from a couple that did the same thing, but still made some minor mistake (not technical, but a little bureaucratic mistake) and had to rebuild it or something. I guess it had to do with the surface area.

Did you build with wood?

I built a block foundation and above that wood.

If all you have is trees though you can build a permanent treated wood foundation.
