How to build a Tiny House for DIY Tiny House builders

You’re eager to build a tiny house on wheels, but you don’t have a background in construction and you just need the nitty-gritty of how everything fits together.

In this three hour workshop you will learn:

  • Building terminology that will help you talk with confidence at your local timber yard.

  • How to adapt standard construction techniques in cyclonic conditions for a mobile, vibration prone structure.
  • How to design a tiny house to keep cool in our Australian summer.
  • Pros and cons of common tiny house design features such as: wheel guard v.s. over the wheel “flat top” design considerations; roof style options and pitch for on and off-grid; ladders v.s. stairs v.s. all on one level living; optimal bathrooms and kitchens layouts; bed placement; skylights; french doors; and practical tips for living with kids in a tiny house from a father who knows.
  • Fred’s innovative Unified Construction Method™ that produces the strongest and lightest weight attachment between tiny house and trailer possible anywhere.
  • Everything you need to know about how to make your tiny house roadworthy, lightweight, well insulated, off-grid and totally DIY-able by you!

Please note:

We regularly get feedback from people who attend just “How to Build A Tiny House” and they regret not attending all four workshops. This is because:

  • The workshop is so good(!) and
  • How To Build a Tiny House builds on information that has been incrementally introduced in the previous day’s  workshops.  People who start with this workshop find there is too much in it to grasp at once, while people who have attended the whole weekend find they are ready to receive the content of How To Build A Tiny HouseAttend the whole weekend to get the full benefit of these workshops.
