RE: EARTHSHIP: this is how I will design my future home

in #earthship • 5 years ago

wow, you REALLY covered EArthship on this post.,. nicely done!! and some great photos also!

the app for $10 is a new thing.. its based on a new design called the encounter model, vs the larger and more expensive global model..

Interestingly, i never did a workshop, and didnt even have youtube when i started my build.. and i succeeded! as mike says, you CAN build it yourself!

I hope to be part of your build when it happens!

    Ever hear of mike oehler?

    I met him and got a bunch of his books including the $50 and under underground house book.

    Not sure about all this other book. But really I doubt the workshop is worth the cost.

      i havent heard of him.. souds interesting.. but yeah workshops are rarely worth the money in a sense.. they give you a taste but you have to really get stuck into a build from start to finish to really learn.. i personally learned on the job! it worked ;_)

      Yeah Mike is the pioneer of the technology. And an amazing one at that.

      Yeah I've done quite a bit of building and this is an amazing idea. Have your home make the environment and include power....

      It's a totally different idea when you are the one putting it together. And why pay money to build someone's home. When you can build yours...

          Thanks for being the inspiration on this one Alex! And great to know you were able to do it without doshing out $3000 on a course. There is something deeply familiar about this design and even with my basic knowledge I feel confident to attempt this. I suspect many of us used to live a similar way a long time ago.

          Your offer of help is greatly appreciated! I will very likely take you up on that when the time is right 🙏🏻

          @dmwh mentioned to me over on EcoVillages that you have an ebook?

          Is this something you think would be useful for me?

            very happy i have been some inspiration, really!
            I had the books for years, and they were very helful.. for the rest, it was MUCH better to work independantly in the end as i did things differently and didnt have to buy their systems from the USA, which costs a LOT ..

            I do have two books, one is the story of how i built,, lots of gems in there.. and another all about biotecture to help understanding.. the most technical info i have on steem posted.. the earthship biotecture transcribed series is gold really to learn..
