Then when he finally resurfaces he says he's sorry and that he'll post more pictures on flickr soon to tide his readership and followers over until his next post but then does the complete oppposite and is silent now again for 6 months. I mean, he was even talking about putting out a book on this project. It takes like 10 minutes every couple weeks or so to post a short update for all of us that have been faithfully following this project with interest. He built this great foundation, a website, set up a cam, etc and publicized it all over the place and then just abandoned it. Disappointing. Sorry that is so hard for you to understand. Scott Phil,

We about to sign on the dotted line for Integrity windows for our new home. The choices are mind boggling when it comes to windows, and as you know, windows are a big line item on the budget, seen in every room in the house, and something you hope will last a long time. Hi

Are you paying for content / updates to the site? Do you have a vested interest in this project? I've been following along with interest as well - but I won't be demanding an update. Hopefully things are still OK with Jeremy, his family, the project etc. Scott,

So, it's now 8 months and you've only put one comment on this blog. Unfortunate for all of us that were following you and believed in what you were doing...

Indeed, we're quite happy with our millwork... it all turned out very nice. I actually a few more photos to upload of the kitchen, as there's some more millwork in there as well. It was done by Tim Jones at Mainframe Industries (905-403-0906) @JFRPRR — Thank you... and I love your stairs! @Paula — We'll eventually make the budget available... I'm simply waiting until the project is complete. That said, it all comes down to cost per sqft. In our case, we're tracking towards $270.95/sqft. This includes EVERYTHING (but the existing land costs). If you'd like some more detail, give me a shout at jeremy@360winnett.com @andy — The mesh lights are called "Random Lights", and they were purchased from Design Within Reach (http://www.dwr.com/product/random-light-small.do) @Scott — Thanks!
