    Love the area, but as retired experienced home builders, you should probable go 16x32 for no waste of wood. So happy for yall!

      Not to rain on any parade here, but if the project lumber were 4×8 sheets of something, a 30 ft length could be possible without waste of wood because the sheet being cut in half could be used on the front or back wall, but it's going to be U shaped, so no problem. That is IF T-111 or similar sheet material is used, it could be board and batten, only they know

    Watch out for those water/pond area's, they make a great breeding ground for insects and mosquitoes. Also, a foundation should be based on "undisturbed" earth. Putting a house on a loose packed dirt pile is asking for the house to settle and shift. You'd be better off using some precast concrete pier footings to build your house on.

  • @grandperesdream3183
    @grandperesdream3183 2 года назад +12

    From my experience, solid block would be better than hollow block for foundation purposes. Of course, the leveling is most of the work, so just replacing the hollow block with solid would not require much effort. You may have planned this anyway. Nearly all you do works out well.

    Hey Jason and Danielle, Congratulations on starting the tiny house. I was just watching a channel called "Handeeman" and back in Jan and Feb 2017, he built a off grid rainwater catchment system that is built on the ground. It's cheaper than building a traditional roof catchment system. Maybe that is something that would work for you all.

He has taught me over our 20 years of marriage how to do it all too & we've done MANY jobs together when we first started our plumbing & electrical business. I've laid thousands of square ft of flooring with him & pulled my fair share of wiring. Lol. Danielle, you will be SO HAPPY to know how to do things! I know I am. I thank GOD for my hardworking husband EVERY DAY! To have a man that's not afraid of work is a blessing & a supportive woman beside him makes it even better. These days this younger generation is pure lazy! Not all, but most! I am so happy & excited for y'all! Y'all deserve all the happiness & blessings this world has to offer & more! My husband always says "a man that doesn't work doesn't eat" & that's IN THE BIBLE! Enjoy yourselves working side by side even on those difficult days. Y'all will have beautiful memories to tell your grandchildren one day. (Now....let the "you should have done's" begin 🤣)

    You guys would save so much time on doing the foundation by using 2 metalpipes. Maybe like 4meters long. 50mm thick. Like waterpipes. Level them in the ground. Maybe like 60cm apart. Fill with gravel between them and drag a sturdy board between the pipes. Then you just put all the stones out. Hard to explain in english. We use laser and the pipemethod for most stuff here in sweden. Foundations. Stone driveways. And others. Cool channel. I Will follow.
