Energy-efficient, sustainably-bult 7,300 s.f. home with two garages and a separate Quiet Room or chapel. The restored historic cabin and studio are both fully equipped and can serve as separate guest quarters. In addition there is a two-story barn, workshop, hay sheds, and greenhouse. The spacious main home has six bedrooms, six bathrooms, two offices, a library or media room, game room, spacious kitchen and dining area, workshop, and a sweeping staircase leading to the dramatic upper floor entrance. The master bedroom features a rock-walled   jaczuzzi tub with views and his and hers walk-in closets. Custom stone, wood, and tile work throughout complement the feeling of open space and light, enhanced by skylights and a wall of south-facing windows looking out toward Ralph Lauren’s ranch and the Sneffels Range. Indoor vegetable and fower gardens beneath the windows range the length of the house, which also includes multiple patios and decks on all levels. Click here to see more of the home’s interior.

This is a 2 story, 2000 sq/ft home being built just outside of Saint John, New Brunswick into a south sloping rock cliff. It is the first home in NB to have a structural engineered sanctioned and stamped tire wall, it is also the first house to have a collected potable rainwater and a signed off indoor grey water system from the department of heath. The home will also feature a certified composting toilet called the phoenix (http://www.compostingtoilet.com/).

 Our climate is very cold and moist, for this reason the indoor grey water garden is designed to move water though it quickly rather than to act as a holding cell. The garden is isolated on the west side of the house, along with a bathroom, rather than across the front of the house. This will make it easy to control the humidity levels of that part of the house, whilst allowing the rest of the house to be opened up with a 2 level high ceiling and loft area. The second floor will sit about 8 feet behind the first on a secondary rock shelf that was carved out 9′ 6″ higher than the bottom platform.

  If anybody is interested in more details on the project or would like to visit the site to look or volunteer, you can email terrabermaproject@gmail.com

Much love,

f you can turn a wrench and operate an electric drill, you can build this simple generator in two days: one day for chasing down parts, and one day for assembling the components. The four major components include a vehicle alternator with a built-in voltage regulator, a General Motors (GM) fan and clutch assembly (I used one from a 1988 GM 350 motor), a tower or pole on which to mount the generator (15 feet of used 2-inch tubing cost me $20), and the metal to build a bracket for mounting the generator on the tower or pole. If you’re a Ford guy or a Mopar gal, that’s fine — just make sure your alternator has a built-in voltage regulator. You’ll also need some electrical cable or wires to hook the alternator up to your storage batteries. I used 8-gauge, 3-conductor cable pilfered from the oil patch. (And they said the transition from fossil fuels to renewables would take years. Pfft!)

Build An Off Grid Wind Generator Out Of A Truck Alternator

If you live off grid or even if you have a cabin or campsite that is off grid this tutorial will help you build a generator out of a truck alternator that can be connected to your batteries for storage. This way any time the wind is blowing the generator will be charging your storage batteries so that you can turn on the lights.

This awesome diy project of build an off grid wind generator out of a truck alternator is by Robert D. Copeland on Mother Earth News.   The energy is stored in 6-volt golf cart batteries so for a very inexpensive build and set up that you can do yourself, you can have electricity at camp in just a couple of days. RD Copeland shares the instructions on Mother Earth News.

Fan Clutch to Alternator Attachment

The blades for the wind generator are repurposed from a vehicle fan clutch. To attach the blades to the alternator, you can weld the fan clutch hub directly to the alternator hub — just make certain the fan is perfectly in line with the alternator shaft. Also, make sure the alternator’s built-in wire plug-ins are located on what will be the bottom of the generator. If you don’t have access to a welder, you can connect the fan clutch to the alternator using the following materials:

• 5/8-inch-by-3-inch washer, 3/16 inch thick

• Electric drill

• 1/4-inch thread tap

• Drill bit that corresponds to specific thread tap

• (4) 1/4-inch-by-1-1/2-inch to 2-1/2-inch bolts with corresponding nuts and lock washers

The fan is attached to the alternator using a 3-inch washer.

You can use 1/2-inch galvanized pipe to make the generator bracket.
