This is amazing! It's so exciting to see how much progress you have made on the homestead. I'll be looking forward to trying that sauna :) You have really refined the platering technique compared to our first attempt, lol!!! Looking forward to your next installment! love you! oxoxoxo
lol yes you were there for the very beginning of the plaster trials! lol how funny that was. i'll have to include that iconic photo of us in my fert lab specific update post!
maybe when you visit this fall the sauna will be in working order ;) we're doing our darnedest to get it there to be sure! love you XOXO
That makes perfect sense: you start out with the fastest and quickest (thus smallest) buildings, and as you work your way up to bigger and more elaborate ones, you are also becoming better and better with each building. And having a sauna I think is an essential thing in places where you have actual winters.
I'm excited to see the sauna video!
yes! thanks :) it has certainly worked for us too - to learn through building smaller buildings and it's a morale boost to finish things (especially that are usefull and healing!)
Was thinking about you guys over here in Thailand this morning and wandered over to check out what you've been up to.... WOW!! I'm very keen to build a sauna-steam room myself as part of the Earthship Artemis :) and definitely LOVE this!!

:) haha! you're welcome to come visit some time! <3
This is really fascinating! I am happy to live vicariously through your experiments on it though. Far too labor intensive for these old bones!
I will be watching avidly for all the promised posts about the different steps. :))
:) yes it is quite labor intensive. luckily we have some work parties lined up - teaching people and getting their help is a win - win. will be working on other posts soon!
Great photos and amazing write-up as usual! You guys are workhorses

You guys are awesome! I like the sauna idea from the Finnish tradition, it's very inspiring. Good job on what you've already started.
Incredible how much more time it takes to build something, than we expect it to take, isn't it?
:) <3 yeah! super inspired by the finns :) and thanks so much. it is incredible how much more time it takes - always usually at least twice as long as we think hahah how are things going at your homestead? i'll have to check out your posts and update myself.
@mountainjewel It's really fascinating to see the photos, to see your explanation, and you notice the passion with which you make this space, oh we are sure it will have the right temperature, is something very well thought.
