Cabin update: the driveway and house pad are complete! It's a huge area. The excavator person did a phenomenal job. The cats accept the new zone: https://youtube.com/shorts/oy5y87VbBBo

Next up: materials list. I've secured a builder (my neighbor's partner) and we went over the design and talked everything through. My bf helped with details like: gable roof with open beam, size of roof overhangs (very large, because of how much rain we get and how it can come from all directions), having screen in the upper part of the gable that faces the lanai to maximize airflow, using beadboard paneling on the inside walls. The builder is now working on the materials and price list.

Challenges: mom wants me to modify the design and add a 2nd bedroom 🫨😵‍💫🫠. After the excavator already made the house pad for a 16'x32' structure... 🥴

Also: I should make a design for the separate bathroom/shower structure that will happen after the main cabin. Might as well start pricing that in. I'm gonna stick with a composting toilet because it seems insane to spend $20,000 on a toilet and septic system for the luxury of having water take my poo away.

Anyone tried any of these, or another that you like? Thinking of upgrading my hand wash in a basin or pot.

I recently installed a solar panel in my garden and have been running my PC off it for around two weeks now.

Aside from a couple of hitches and unexpected setbacks, my experiences have been very positive and smooth.

I wanted to collect what I've learned in the form of a blogpost which you can read below, I hope you'll like it and maybe even get an interest in running solar yourself.

Just in case anyone wants to build a #victronenergy #victron #vedirect galvanically isolated USB cable here are some pics to reproduce my cheap DIY cables.
