Here’s a video from Tiny House Giant Journey which interviews Pam and Bruce Westra, who have built 9 Tiny Houses. They share their tips and tricks for a successful build. All the tiny houses they built used unique designs.

1: Video the ‘skeleton’ before putting sheet materials on the walls, so you have a document of where all the cables and water lines are running.

2: Put the shower stall in before putting the walls up, because it’s bigger than any of the doorways!

3: The house has to have a structural link to the trailer and this should be done at the correct stage. Threaded rod can be used to tie the entire building to the trailer.

4: Use Ram Board on your floors. I’ve used this on a home remodel and it gives much better protection than basic paper roll against damage from dropped tools etc.

5: Ladders or stairs? Both have their pros and cons. Stairs take up more space but are safer and the space under the stairs can be used for storage.

6: Bumpouts can be put on the front or back but not on the sides due to vehicle width restrictions.

7: Space saving tables or desktops. For example, a drop leaf table can ‘disappear’ when not in use. Other tables can fold flat against the wall and be lowered into position when needed.

8: How is your roof going to help you use the space? For the biggest loft size, use a “barn roof”; however a sloping shed roof style roof is much simpler and more suited to less experienced builders.

9: Roofing materials – corrugated roof is the cheapest and easiest to work with, asphalt is mid grade, metal standing rib is the most durable but more expensive.

10: Entry door placement – sidewall doors should be placed on the passenger side so that when parked, you exit on the safest side rather than right into the road. Door on the end looks appealing and facilitates a porch that overhangs the trailer tongue.

11: Have fun!

This Crazy Off Grid Device Literally Makes Drinkable Water From Fresh Air:

According to NASA, the U.S. is expecting a 100-YEAR LONG MEGADROUGHT.

It's already begun. Ask the farmers in California. They know.

Every survivalist knows that water is of critical importance. You NEED an independent water source that you can count on!

As an interesting "survival rehearsal" - imagine that you turned the tap on right now and nothing came out. How long would you last?

But what if there was another water source literally hidden in plain sight. That's right, I'm talking about the atmosphere!

The amazing thing about getting water from the natural moisture in the air... is that it is ALWAYS available.

This gives you real water security!

😳 What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)

After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.

As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises…

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...

Most People Don't Have The Guts To Try This:

An amazing discovery in an abandoned house in Austin, Texas: A lost book of amazing survival knowledge, believed to have been long vanished to history, has been found in a dusty drawer in the house which belonged to a guy named Claude Davis.

Remember... back in those days, there was no electricity... no refrigerators... no law enforcement... and certainly no grocery store or supermarkets... Some of these exceptional skills are hundreds of years of old and they were learned the hard way by the early pioneers.
