Very nice! I would love to see your tiny house but we live up here
in Montana. I have a dream of building something like this someday.

Fellow Tiny House Enthusiast,

Seeing my tiny house pull out of the driveway and around the corner,
I wondered if I might feel the same way someday seeing a child go off
to college for the first time.

Then the doubts crept in... will the trailer hold up? Will the
siding hold up? Will something break? Will that old suburban make the
trip?

If you're thinking of building a tiny house, I can relate.
I've actually done it.

And I made some mistakes

Photo0855

Didn't know to leave extra room for the header

Some, I caught before it was too late. Some I didn't. Some were easy
to fix. Some cost a few extra bucks I would have rather not had to
shell out.

If you're planning to build a tiny house, learn from others'
mistakes. Personally, I wish there had been more resources available.

I got the books and read the websites. I could have invested the
$475 plus travel for the live workshop but I didn't. I figured I
wasn't trying to build an expensive tiny house so why bother.

The resource I wished I'd had

I've since gotten a set of official tiny house plans. They wouldn't
have helped. My trailer was slightly different. I would have wanted to
have made alterations. There was no information on alternate materials.
I don't want a dang boat heater in Texas but I do want an AC unit.

Don't get me wrong. If I were going to hire someone to build a tiny
house to look exactly like a certain style, I would have wanted those
plans for the contractor to follow. But I'm no contractor.

I'd argue what makes tiny houses unique from everything else are that
you build them individually for individuals. No one will be mass
producing them for the foreseeable future. Each one is custom tailored
and one set of plans can only take you so far.

I was no expert

I'd never used a miter saw (aka chop saw) before I started this
project. I'd seen one used and I knew how to use a circular saw so I
figured that was good enough. I knew if I started and kept working, I'd
eventually figure it out.

I didn't know about framing, drywall, wiring or plumbing. I figured it
all out along the way. And I made some boneheaded mistakes along the
way. You'll have my experience to build on to save yourself the
frustration.

At first glance, I questioned whether I had anything to share since
I'm not a contractor or design professional of any kind. Then I
realized that's exactly where many tiny house builders start out. Maybe
they'd see that if I could do it, you can too.

That was $8500 and 11 months ago. That's what I spend building my tiny
house. A good chunk of that was my learning curve. The supplies I ended
up actually using ran me $6000. I know I could have saved even more.

Now that I've finished, I went back and created the resource I wish
I'd had before I started building.

I documented everything

I kept all the receipts, took over 1000 pictures, blogged on the
major steps and recorded 3 video tours. I even did an interview with a
local documentary producer.

Here are what commenters on my blog had to say about my building
process:

This is great. You did a good job of explaining the details and
the photos clarified or reinforced your details. Most importantly to
me, it has helped me with my own plans. Thanks for going to all of
the trouble you did to share this. Your TH is looking great!

Really impressive work! Until the economy changed I began dabbling
in carpentry and became fascinated with the concept of tiny homes
before I knew they were indeed a category.

I would like to see more pics... of the kitchen... study nook...
living room and bathroom.

- April

Wow! Love the house. Nice work and thank you for the tour for those
of us who couldn't make the open house. Did you build the kitchen
sink setup yourself or did you purchase it somewhere? It's a
fantastic idea!

- Hazel

I am impressed with the thought and quality you put into it.

- Brad

I enjoyed this very much. thanks. If it is in my future I hope to
get one built in one of my kid's back yards.

- Gloriana

I love your idea using the plastic chair. It can be removed from
the house, scrubbed down and hosed off and sun bleached. Very
sanitary! Your house is awesome!

- Victoria

Thanks for the video. It is help and inspiration. Maybe if I have
a question or 2 along the way, I can ask you?

- Rick

I have enjoyed watching your progress all along and Thanks for
the inspiration. I have wanted to do this for years and may just try
now this year.

- Annie

This tiny house movement is really taking off. Very cool!

- Lance

Hey, nice work. Must be exciting to be building your tiny house and
I'm looking forward to keeping up with your progress.

- Alex

Enjoyed the open house. Your hard work was showing. Hope you sold it
or had some offers. Thanks for sharing!

- Cindy

I thoroughly enjoyed reading your blog about building it. I want
to build one of my own in the next three years. You've inspired me
to do so!

- Lisa

Hey! I am TOTALLY interested in being part of a community of
tiny houses. If this develops and we can bring it into fruition, I'm
down!

- Bita

Kudos and thanks for sharing.

Your idea sounds great to me - making the tiny houses more
affordable, especially because I'm still in high school and my dream
is to live in a Tumbleweed House. I graduate this year but I
definitely don't have $50,000. I'll keep watching! (:

- Ellie

Your turn...

Here's what I included in the final workshop:
* Almost 2 ˝ hours of video in 19 topical segments
* My best 300+ pictures with narrated explanations
* My building supplies list with Lowe's item numbers and prices
* A 25 page manual on how to design each part of your tiny house
* A Google SketchUp file of the framing plan I used
* A Google SketchUp of different ways to mount different trailers
* Google SketchUps of different ways to design doors, lofts and
levels
* Google SketchUps of 16' and 20' trailers
* Pictures of each framing angle separately
* Various diagrams, drawings and floor plans
* Links to other essential and recommended resources

That's 19 videos, 7 SketchUp files, 4 pdfs (one with 351 pictures), 1
spreadsheet and 34 other pictures.

In short, it's everything I wish I'd had before I started building
my tiny house.

In considering how to price this workshop, I considered several
things. This information would have saved me many hundreds of dollars
and weeks of work.

These are the topics covered on the videos:
* Drawings Video Image
* Trailer and supplies
* Subfloor
* Wall framing
* Roof framing
* Roof completion
* Siding
* Trim and insulation
* Electrical system
* Plumbing
* Bathroom
* Front door and moving
* Ceiling
* Ladder
* Flooring and walls
* Sink and toilet
* Finish interior
* Storm door and porch
* Finished tiny house

Better than a workshop

All the other workshops out there are at least $200 per day plus
travel expenses. Some people charge the same price for
workshops whether you're there in person or get the DVDs.

At any other workshop you're not going to be getting hundreds
of pictures to take home and review at each stage. You're also not
going to get Google SketchUps files (and learn to make your own).

Since I understand what it's like to budget a large project like a
tiny house, I'm willing to price it at [DEL: $97 :DEL] $17. These
plans have sold for $97. I realize that many folks are still trying to
decide whether they want to build a tiny house or not. For $17, you
don't have to have decided. Learn from my experience and then decide.

I may raise the price or discontinue the offer entirely at some
future time without notice. So if you're thinking you want this, I
recommend you go ahead and get it.

Heads up: There's an ongoing spamdexing of Google searchbot algorithms. Sites that are 'copies of copies' and cloaked sites which include Zorgium keywords presented to search engine crawlers yet garbage content presented to human visitors were hosted on thousands of IP addresses and domains registered immediately after the introduction of Zorgium in November of 2009. The Hostgator/'The Planet'/Softlayer datacenters in Texas seem to be the epicenter of this activity in conjunction with anonymously registered domains of various TLD's but primarily .info domains at Godaddy which, in our opinion, has some sort of connection to the domains of goldmint.in and goldmint.org. Google has begun to notice this and has begun to lower the ranking of these sites and put our original sites back on top of the search rankings. These actions, as far as we can tell, negatively impact the use of the keyword 'zorgium' as a search term and provided little benefit, if any, to the perpetrators.

ZORGIUM note to content providers: If you don't want your page to appear in Zorgium's search abstraction then put an exclusion for "Zorgium" in your web server's robots.txt file.
