Repairs done at Stella's cabin, Butte Valley
Posted by Denver on October 20, 2003 at 17:26:18:
Just got back from a 5 day stay in Butte Valley. While there, my brother Bob and I replaced the complete stove pipe chimney at Stella's with all new pipe and dampener.
We also put new plastic on the window over the bed.
We replaced the top hinge on the out house (The Randy)with a new strap hinge. Also added a doubler behind the upper hinge to bring the axis a little more in line with the lower hinge axis. We couldn't bring our selves to replace the lower hinge, since whoever worked on it last showed a real artistic flair. The materials used to repair it were various pieces of junk picked up on the site-- a real piece of art ;=)
Someone apparently stole the plumber's snake that I had left in the lean-to shed on an earlier visit. We could have used it over at Russel's. Oh well, I guess they needed it worse than we did.
If anyone is going up there in the near future, The sink drain at Russel's is all rusted out below the sink, and needs some creative repair. The steps from the breezeway also are in need of some repairs. I can supply pictures and dimensions/bill of materials needed. We ran out of time and materials, or we would have fixed those things too.
I will try to post some pictures later.
