mike oehler's ridgetop house: new video

[paul wheaton]

I've had a lot of people asking me to push this up to youtube, and .... presto! Whining pays!

This is a pole structure with a thick earthen roof. Under construction.

This is a design by the popular eco building author Mike Oehler. And it is on Mike's land - it will be his latest creation.

Oh man. The roof is so low! I think I'd just about gnaw my ankles off to have more head room in there. Course, most ceilings seem pretty low to me.

Also, how does moving around work with all those cross braces everywhere?

 

[paul wheaton]

I would guess that the cross brace walls would later become solid walls.

It looks pretty interesting. I can't wait to see it further along.
