I had thought about insulating underneath to gain more height, but decided against it. I'll have 7 feet of ceiling after insulation. Enough to keep me from hitting my head!


This is a unique build. I started out just intending to build a tiny house, then slowly started morphing towards off grid if need be, at least keep that option in sight. The forward portion is going to sort off serve as storage / living space whereas the rear section is going to be primarily living with a shower and toilet. Was at first going to do a regular set up for tapping into shore power / septic, now re thinking that, with the possibility of having a black water tank and letting gray water pour on the ground. Did the gray water thing for years and years on my home. I really love soft intricate lighting and so for my lights I was intending using the lights shown here on dimmers to illuminate the floors, then possibly overhead lights build into chases along the exterior walls. I was contemplating using solid wire as in direct burial of the proper gauge, but still always eager to learn better ways..... should I be looking at strand wire? I have rolls of it from projects. My water lines are going to be copper because I hate Pex even though I know it's better. I've installed a crap ton of both, but I much prfer the neatness of sweated copper! The plumbing is designed in my build to be the absolute minimum, so everything is going to be grouped together fairly tight.
