🛠️🏡 #DIYTinyHouse Inspiration🎉: Adam's 🛠️🏡 #DIYTinyHouse Inspiration🎉: Adam's home perfectly suits his outdoor adventure lifestyle in the Wyoming mountains🏔. He built a 20' x 8.5' x 13.5' tiny house on wheels, built from a wide variety of salvaged and reclaimed materials, like locally harvested wood and pallets🪵. He also created generous gear storage 🎿 to meet all his needs as an avid backcountry skier⛷, camper⛺️, and rock climber🧗. Adam's passions inspired creative features, like his climbing wall as loft access! "I used board and batten as my exterior siding because it reflects a lot of the architecture from buildings around this area. It has a beautiful rustic look to it, and it's a simple, no-fail design. It's easy to put up, easy to maintain, but aesthetically pleasing,” Adam See link in bio for full #tinyhouse tour!📍
🛠️🏡 #TinyHouseBuild Tip: it's important to 🛠️🏡 #TinyHouseBuild Tip: it's important to budget some time for introspection during your design process. ⏰Keep in mind that we all receive "programing" over our lifetimes that shows us what defines a home. 🏠 Things that we grew up being told were necessary & essential may turn out to not be so in the end.

Insulation is a vital component of any tiny home. Insulation is a vital component of any tiny home. Closed-cell spray foam 🌬is one of the most common kinds of spray foam used for tiny house insulation. This unique chemical sprays on in a thin coat on the interior of the walls, then begins to expand and solidify, making a 🦙thick insulating layer in the walls. In addition to the high R-value, it also minimizes sound transfer and acts as an extra structural component (acts like glue). If you're looking for a non-toxic yet durable alternative, sheep's wool 🐏insulation is a good option. It can last a lifetime when properly installed. For more options & durable building materials, check out our recent blog post--link in bio.📍

#DIYTinyHouse Success Story: Kristie is a college #DIYTinyHouse Success Story: Kristie is a college instructor with a love for sustainability. 🌱🏡 She built a $38k tiny house on wheels with no building experience in just 1-year, after receiving a shell from Rocky Mountain Tiny Houses. And, of course, she customized it to fit her needs, including many considerations for her sweet cat. 😻 Here entire DIY build experience was incredibly empowering. See link in bio for tour! 💪 "It feels pretty amazing to know you can take care of things. I think it's definitely changed some of the ways I look at my future of what do I want to do in life. I kinda feel that sometimes I tell people I built a house, I can do whatever I what to do, I can reach any of the goals. I felt like for a long time, this was a huge life goal of I want to build a tiny house, and I want to live tiny. Now I can ask what's next. I don't have the answer to that yet, but I know whatever it is, I can figure it out." —Kristie, @fiercelytiny 🏡🛠
#TinyHouseBuild Tip: you want to stick with the 60 #TinyHouseBuild Tip: you want to stick with the 60/40 weight distribution split for your tiny house on wheels to achieve the ideal tongue weight ratio, between 9%-15%✅.
