At this point I should have a good idea of the build techniques I want to use.
 
== Buy Land ==
Not much to say, but this is going to be a long, painful process.
 
== Car Port ==
A small, pole construction with just a roof, no walls. Provides shade and a place to keep tools while the Tiny House is setup.
 
== Power ==
Get get solar setup. This is necessary to power the tools for everything else.
 
It may be necessary to have a generator as well. We'll see. If I can get a wood gas generator setup before, that would be great, but don't wait for that.
 
Maybe build a pole structure carport and put the panels on that. It would give some good experience and the area under it could be used for a lot early on.
 
== Start [[Earthship Tiny House | Tiny House]] ==
Probably a 10'x10' raised foundation construction. During early construction I can keep tools here and sleep here. I also want to get the sanitation system setup early both because it will be needed and so that I can test it out.
 
== Orchard ==
Will take 3-5 years to start to produce, so start early.
 
== [http://wiki.adamcolton.net/index.php/Earthship_Green_House Greenhouse] ==
Moving in will take years, but I can setup a greenhouse and start extracting value in a few months.
 
== [http://wiki.adamcolton.net/index.php/Earthship_Workshop Workshop] ==
Polebarn construction. This will hold both the tools as well as a lot of mechanical systems.
 
== Primary Structure ==
# Foundation: I'm leaning towards contracting to have a basement constructed.
# Bale walls
# Roof
 
== Interior ==
# Kitchen
# Bathrooms
# Laundry
# Closets

This is intended to be a detailed guide to how we will build our Earthship.

  • Pre-Fabrication
    • wood gas generator
    • 12 panel solar setup
    • solar thermal panel
    • Probably also want some sort of small tractor.
  • Buy Land
  • Car Port
  • Initial Power : Solar panels, possibly wood gas, possibly a generator
  • Tiny House V1
  • Orchard: Will take 3-5 years to start to produce, so start early.
  • Greenhouse V1
  • Workshop V1

At this point I should have a good idea of the build techniques I want to use.
