24.01.2022 Tiny house tie downs. This time we have a boiler maker on the course so John welded our m12 threaded rod to the trailer, solid as.

24.01.2022 Hanging a door is always a section of the tiny house building course that gets full student attention.

24.01.2022 First wall of the house completed! With a lot of help from the students. Thanks team.

23.01.2022 Look what we did! Weatherboards underway. It's so nice when we get a great bunch of students on the course and then they come back after the course to finish the house off.

23.01.2022 Day 2, framing. The students take charge. Learning by doing.

23.01.2022 Building a tiny house in 6 days is a bit like a cooking show. We give you the recipe and "here is one we prepared earlier". Joe getting the door jamb ready for the course.

21.01.2022 Team Tiny 2019.

21.01.2022 What a team. We accomplished an amazing amount in 7 days. In fact this is most we have been able to get done in a course. And there is even a crew staying on to help me finish off.

21.01.2022 FEBRUARY 2020 TINY HOUSE BUILDING COURSE This is the next course I will be teaching. For this one Im back in Sydney and partnered with The Bower (who Ive run every course with in Sydney so far) Head over to The Bower website to sign up for the course.... https://bower.org.au/tinyhouse/

18.01.2022 Kym, is this the vintage hammer you were looking for?

17.01.2022 We are done. We tow out today. A crew of dedicated (and becoming more capable by the day) students helped build till the end. Their last job was putting the archives around the door. Rustic and appealing Id say.

17.01.2022 First wall frame being built before the class starts next week.

17.01.2022 One of the hardest working tools in our tiny house building tool kit is this old truck. It never complains when we load it up with building materials for the tiny and other stuff we find along the way that are just too good to pass up.

17.01.2022 Almost done. The last student left this morning, a few finishing touches to do. Then we park it out on the farm.

17.01.2022 Look what we did! Weatherboards underway. Its so nice when we get a great bunch of students on the course and then they come back after the course to finish the house off.

16.01.2022 2 walls done! The other 2 are for the students to complete in class.

14.01.2022 Construction detail.

13.01.2022 Id say this one is going to be our feature window. We even managed to get a recycled timber jamb made up.

12.01.2022 First day, flooring done. Nailed it!!! (literally)

12.01.2022 Skies cleared today. Under the big tree just beyond the old Hills Hoist is a great spot for lunch at the Tiny House Building Course.

12.01.2022 In 3 weeks we will be towing a tiny house out of this alleyway.

12.01.2022 We found this!! What a score!! Someone upcycled an old window frame into this cute sized blackboard.

09.01.2022 Frames up! Loft framing done! In 2 big days. Roofing today.

05.01.2022 Recycled windows. Not quite ready to go, but we will get there.

04.01.2022 Wow. It rained. Hasnt rained in months on the farm and yesterday the skies dropped 35mm of glorious water. Lucky were building the tiny inside the big shed!

03.01.2022 Last day. Door goes in. Already this class is blasting ahead and self organising their own window I stalls and work groups, so good.

02.01.2022 Walls up!! The students had fun playing Tetris orientating and standing this one.
