How to choose a natural building material (ie cob or straw or a mix)May 15, 2012 You may find cob cottages particularly cute, but taste isn't reason enough to choose one natural building material over another. Like more manufactured products, different earth materials all have different uses: straw bale is a great insulator, cob is a nice thermal sink as well as one of the easiest materials to sculpt if you're looking for lots of curves in your structure. Since different parts of the building need to do different tasks, even in the same building you might choose straw bale for one wall and cob for another. Natural building expert Michael G. Smith shows us some of the uses for straw bale, cob, slip straw and clay wattle (a variation on wattle and daub) in the homes and buildings of Boonville, California's Emerald Earth Sanctuary.

California DIY, shipping container tiny home and a cargo trailer bedroomMay 19, 2012 Lulu is a single mom who'd gone back to school and didn't have the time or interest in working full-time to pay for rent. So when she had to move out of her more conventional home, she decided to move herself and her daughter into a shipping container. With no building experience, Lulu spent just one month cutting windows and a door and installing insulation and a basic kitchen (complete with propane-powered campstove and on-demand water heater). Then she and her daughter moved into the 8 by 20 foot square foot home, fitting a bed, couch, bookshelf and kitchen cabinets into the 160 square foot box. When Lulu decided they needed a bit more space, she went from shipping to trucking waste and began to build their bedroom on a used flatbed trailer. "It's really mostly built like a shed. It's a nice looking shed, but it's really an 8 by 16 shed with windows in it." Using only recycled building materials- including used floorboards, windows, cabinets, doors, bathtub, toilet and sinks- she built the entire thing for about $4000 (trailer included).

DIY, recycled pallet house with IKEA-style assembly instructionsMay 20, 2012 Architects Suzan Wines and Azin Valy were trying to come up with the ideal building material for refugee housing in Kosovo. It should be recycled, recyclable, affordable, plentiful. They thought about bottles and tires. Then Wines tripped over a shipping pallet on the way home from work one night and something clicked. Using only shipping pallets, or skids, the I-Beam architects created a tiny, modular home design. They also created "IKEA-style assembly instructions" so anyone- even those without building experience- could build their own home, using only hand tools (hammer, nails, "a crowbar is helpful"). "We've also used zip ties to build entire structures," adds Wines, "which is pretty quick, cheap and easy and doesn't require any tools". More info & original story: faircompanies.com

Urban Primary Tool UPT (Overview) Part 1May 17, 2012 This is a tailgate overview of what I've dubbed the Urban Primary Tool or UPT. When it comes to disasters / emergencies in urban territory, we're going to benefit greatly from a prime tool that's capable a breaking, bashing, crushing, extracting and torquing its way through various types of common building materials. These may include glass, Sheetrock, Stucko, plywood, framing, cinder-block and even concrete. It's my believe and understanding that the ability to break through building material, pry-doors, locks and hinges and or gain leverage on heavy objects will be invaluable during disasters, both natural and man-made. Most would agree that a full size Halligan Tool simply isn't a practical option for an individual citizen on the move, due to size and weight. In this video I present some UPT options that far exceed the demolition capabilities of a large survival knife yet are still carry-able or concealed in a EDC pack or "USK" (see nutnfancy's video "Concept USK" www.youtube.com I'll be demonstrating some of the tools in the future but for know I just intent to introduce the thought concept as it has been given little attention by Survivalists, Prepers and Sheepdogs. Please share your sensible and well-reasoned thoughts.
