Stones At Uretero-vesical Junction

cats Bank of bamboo


Over one hundred percent humidity!


Since all moldy. Bamboo, wood, leather and even CDs.


Thanks Sam's Tip, I've managed to the bamboo mold to expel it. It worked, Sam. At the pharmacy I bought a bleaching agent and thus smeared the mold-infested areas. It has foamed a little. In the sun, the foam is dried up and away was the mold. So far he has not come back again. However, the sun, the beautiful Urucum orange faded a little. Does not matter. Will look for a way to fix the pigment better. I also will not use more linseed oil. For attracts not really into the bamboo, but creates a beautiful white horse humidity. Maybe it will work out to rub the Urucum directly into the bamboo, just no linseed oil, and then on the bamboo with a water-based paint to paint. A new test object for that I already have.

The past few days we have built a sofa bed made of bamboo. It's a bit time consuming, but the results speak for themselves.

Even the slats we have made of bamboo. The bamboo is to split lengthwise. The resulting strips have to be carved only on the edges smooth. Because of the bamboo so round, it must be the bottom flattened a bit. Done.



Then all assembled, equipped with bamboo dowels and their supernatants cut. Here is a little sanding and you'll be on the bamboo bed can be used.

The cats band is quite excited about the bamboo bed, even if the final touch and the paint still missing. When everything is ready, of course I will again take a picture ...

The nice thing about a trellis made of bamboo is that it adapts to the body. Where the weight is greater, he gives in, for example at the bottom, and there where less weight rests, it supports. Another advantage of the bamboo bed is that it is completely free of metal, because instead of nails or screws used to anchor made of bamboo. Moreover, it is very easy.

A few people who happen are passed when we were on the porch at the potter, stopped curious and were quite pleased with our work. A neighbor has given us even like a contract to build a deck. Until we can devote ourselves to, but will still take a little time. Last weekend, our landlady came to visit us at times just casually announce that it has sold the house yet and we shall come out as quickly as possible to move because the new owners want. First it was said that by mid-November, we should get out in just under three weeks. A little delay is but I managed. By the end of November, we must now vacate the house. I'm quite happy drum, because I anyway so wanted to get out as quickly as possible.

were yesterday and the day we have to prepare on the property, a place for a small little hut of 12 square meters. Our preliminary stay until we build a little house bigger. Twelve-square is not much, but enough. After all, we are also a kind of build an open hut, can also be used to determine under things. One problem is still the toilet. For now it will probably be a Plumplsklo. Running water is not yet so. Except in the stream course. Whether we can derive a bit of it, in order to drive a water wheel, do not know yet. The Environment Agency has not reported yet, unfortunately. Therefore, white I do not whether we should build a constructed wetland and a rain water cistern, as we have applied for them. No matter. Now, first of all, a little hut built and then gradually to the rest. I'm really excited. Finally we go.

Sure, I will report our progress gradually from the "project". There will be but a little delayed. Electricity is still not fact. Only a few solar garden lamps, which sent me my mom has to be shed light on us the night a bit, until we have bought a larger photovoltaic module, which we then still be able to supply a couple of lamps and the PC with power. As for now we are a refrigerator box Isopor must serve. There are even refrigerators that are powered by a gas cylinder. But these are quite expensive. Somehow and at some point we get the well resolved. Anyway, I'm looking forward to living on the edge of the rainforest and to realize a small Ökotraum ...
