  • what do you do with the left over pieces of for example wood and stuff?

    I've heard that there is a solution, dont remember what it was though.

  • i live in los angeles, moving to arkansas mountains soon looking to hookup with ppl that would be intrested in doing something like this like building your own community all helping all.

  • i've seen the house and i'm wondering why you can't tell the refuse on the property from the home? sorry to say - the place looks like a dump. at least straw-bale homes are visually pleasing.

  • how do you comply to existing building codes? that must be difficult. any tips?

  • how long does it take to build something like that?

  • anyone looking to build, or help us build in the next 5 years, msg me!! we are designing to build in the next 5 years :)

  • Way to go Pat! It is difficult to find areas in the US that have zoning approval for earthships. Are the earthships approved in all of Canada?

  • Way to go Pat!

  • Sure glad to see someone use the rammed earth and tire type building technique. I am glad that you did not call it an Earthship sinc while is similar is is a great hybrid Earthship type. Keep up the good work!

  • Incredible and beautiful video! My heart is beating with excitement. I wanna build one! inexpensive, close to nature, passive solar, grey water systems.

    Could you pack a tire with limestone1/4 down? we have so much of it in our area here on the Canadian prairies.

    I am so emotionally moved to action. I just gotta have one.

    I'm gonna take a workshop for sure! :-)
