Man made homes
Tv programme "kevin mclouds man made home" is on tomorrow channel 4 at 8pm if anyone is intrested he'll be building it using natural (wood from his forest) and salvaged (others rubbish) items and by the looks of the advert he'll be making everything from scratch using things he makes himself!
Http://www.channel4.com/programmes/kevin...e/series-1
Just checked my link and its not working but if you google "kevin macclouds man made home" it'll come up ok.

RE: Man made homes
The only homes that are not man made are caves. Everything else seems to need some input from us.

RE: Man made homes
So true SD but what I meant is he's making everything himself... Cutting down trees and splitting the wood to make tiles for the roof instead of just going to a builders yard for them etc

RE: Man made homes

Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

RE: Man made homes
yeah it does look a bit like a shed! but saying that most of the cabins built by pioneers in the usa during the 1700's and 1800's were just that too!

RE: Man made homes

RE: Man made homes
I would love to live in a Log Cabin out in the boonies, you can get some superb prefab cabin kits that can be fully winterised as well.
