This is where my budget information will go, including goal costs as well as ACTUAL costs. Rough goal 12-14 months rent @ $800 per month brings costs [hopefully] between $9,600 and $11,200.

This is a learning process and I am working on getting items donated/sponsored and I really have no idea where my budget will come in at. This is just my starting goal. Actual Money Spent: $20 11-17-11 – ‘Go House Go’ book from (PAD) Portland Alternative Dwellings, for details on connecting the trailer and the house as well as moisture barrier information.
$500 11-19-11 – 24’ flatbed goose-neck trailer with 5’ dovetail, 8’ wide. Apparat dlya elektrorefleksoterapii luch 1. Hello and greetings- finding your project interesting. – Love the idea of radient floor heating- I am drawn to the rain screen idea- are the planters for ivy a gray water system? The rain screen will also help keep the house cool in summer by shading the house.
The climate you expect to live in your house on wheels also really affects the design- are there such things as co-op camp grounds for tiny homes? Have a communal. Laundry/bathhouse building- well interesting to look at your progress- did you really break your back? I’m so glad you find my site interesting, I’m sorry for being so pokey getting back to you, big week! I’m glad the systems I am using are intriguing. The ivy set-up is only a grey water system in the fact that I have located them (intentionally) where they will be watered by the roof run-off, in theory I won’t have to water them. I am collecting my grey water from my sinks and showers for use in my garden though, that is a little more in depth grey water system.
My thoughts with the plants on the house and the rain-screen was that it will lessen the cooling load by basically keeping it in shade constantly. I am not aware of any co-ops but that is a stellar idea! There are a couple people locally (Boise Idaho) that I know who are looking into the idea, and I know Jay Shafer (formally of Tumbleweed Tiny Homes) has some ideas on the boards for his new company (Four Lights). I am sure there are others, Boneyard Studios is trying to do something like that I suppose but not quite the same, I like your idea much better!
I am actually looking into how to go about doing a tiny house development, turns out there is quite a bit to it and they are so specialized that I am not sure how viable it really is. That and it seems like a lot of people build them to in part get away from people makes me wonder if it is really viable I hope it is! Thank you so much for your questions and your kind words, I did actually break my back, in two places not fun though the foot almost sucks worse, sometimes I just really want to go for a run but I cant!
Life goes on some day soon I will be able to 🙂. Thank you, I am glad to be a good middle point of reference for you and your husband, that is great to be able to hit both sides! 🙂 Thanks for the kind words! The stove was a freebie from a friend who had a camper he was demoing, he let me pick through it for anything I wanted, the stove ended up being the only thing I used but it works great! I have had others tell me they can buy them online at recycled RV shops (I didn’t know there was such a thing!) and also on Craigslist. Totally worth poking around for! Thank you Aja!
I had doubts daily and often for a time, it wasnt until I had been living here a couple months before I let my guard down. There is a lot that goes into this process but it is very rewarding! And there are plenty of external doubters! Everywhere unfortunately. I was lucky enough to have bee published online by Yahoo and EVERYONE has an opinion, the good and the bad come out,, you just have to be secure and confident and focused. It helped me to look at this as an educational experience both for me and them’ I think I have changed a mind or two about the validity of having less instead of more, not that it’s right for them or anyone, its nice to know you just open some eyes.
The axle was only because I put a very heavy floor system in, I wanted to make certain the trailer could handle it! Okay more questions lol. How much does it weigh? Have you moved it much?
How much is it costing you to live in it per month now? Oh and about your barn door I really like it. I think if you were to put a soft sealing gasket material around the inside edge and get a good small industrial vent fan you could turn it on and have the door become snugged up against the outside wall creating a seal from the negative pressure. Would also create white noise and evacuate any ummm fumes shall we say. Then when the fan gets cut off the seal released and the door is free to slide again. Just a thought.
