Teresa sent me this. Amazing interior space and huge variety of sizes available. Looks like really good bang-for-buck.

Tiny house community for a group of lifelong best friends. http://lightersideofrealestate.com/real-estate-life/cool-stuff/tiny-house-bestie-row Came across this link in a post on a forum I visited. http://countryplans.com/ They also have a forum with nearly 9K members. That could be a useful resource all on its own. The site description says: “Here you will find expandable and modifiable home plans for those who want to build their own small home, cottage or cabin. You can modify our standard plans to fit your site, budget and building style. Click Plans and home design tools to get your home building project moving.” Disconcerting article on getting internet to a rural location. Definitely a cautionary tale. A website where people who have built tiny houses try to divest themselves of said house, often because they hate it or are getting a divorce: prices reflect reasoning. Use the search by state feature. A great $16,000 example for sale in Yelm: http://tinyhouselistings.com/tiny-homecabin-shell-unmatched-quality/
Powerwall comes in 10 kWh weekly cycle and 7 kWh daily cycle models. Both are guaranteed for ten years and are sufficient to power most homes during peak evening hours. Multiple batteries may be installed together for homes with greater energy need, up to 90 kWh total for the 10 kWh battery and 63 kWh total for the 7 kWh battery.”
This is being billed as a way to have gardens that do not require constant attention to watering. One of the videos mentions that this is something a lot of people who have vacation properties like to do – they drive out on the weekends to stay and harvest, but during the week their gardens grow and are kept reliably watered with no extra effort. I am thinking of trying a few tomato buckets in a kiddie pool next year and see how they do for us. Warning: Country Music on some of these.
He has a fair amount of it that he’s got stored and is willing to part with, so we will almost certainly be giving this stuff a try as we build our first structure. Should allow us to get something up faster, and be much better insulated than a traditional approach would allow for.
The entire BoM for this is supposedly just $2k and includes sleeping loft, windows, solar power. Uses mostly finished lumber, except for the deck. (video below the break) Looks pretty solid. Need to mute the earbleedingly horrible “music” in the video prior to watching though. 😉 M – Found the Simple Solar Homesteading Ebook that describes the process. |
