You only need a builders licence to build residential structures, if you call the building a office, or farm / machinery / packing shed then no licence is needed, I take it your on acres

FC, think about milling your own timber
can you use your bosses lucas in your own time?
or even get an Alaskan CSM and DIY totally.
I know you have been spoilt by a Lucas but it all comes back to money.

The maximum discount I could get from milling the timber myself is my wage ($120 a cube). I'll only be cutting about half the timber on the lucas, the rest will be benched.
And I'm not in the burbs

so i calculated
u have 4.8 cube of framing. so u would get it out of 8 cube of logs easily probable less. so it would cost about $1500 to get it cut.
u have 4.5 cube of weatherboards you could get this out of 9 cube of logs easily so would cost about $1700 to cut it.
total for your timber of about $3200 leaving u $6800 to buy logs before you broke even.
you would also have a heap of other sizes left over for making stuff.
just food for thaught.

It's only $7818 for the timber from work. How did you work out your price?
