Great job in spreading you knowledge in this building technique Mark! Looks like you are making this structure on Hilo side yeah? Was it hard to do the build with all the rain that you get there? When I was picking banana it rains well over 59" the last season I was there. I am currently in Northern California but would love to go back there, get a piece of property, and have a go at putting together a home like you have shown within this video!!!!

Great Job Mark!
Sharing a video of your progress will help others understand that they can build their own home.
Best regards,
Nolan
Iam also interested in building a home like this in chicago, any tips on how you got the permits to build this way? I know in chicago this would go against all the building codes.

Just wanted to share that Mark worked with a company called CalEarth. Most of the plans that you can get from have already been approved by architects and engineers. It would be worth a try to take a look at them and see what your city officials have to say! Most are much safer than traditional building methods!
