Tiny Texas Houses’ “Willy Wonka” on making magic reusing wood

Brad “Darby” Kittel came to Texas living on a modified school bus. He had planned to write the Great American Novel, but also he ended up purchasing up boarded-up homes and fixing them up utilizing components he salvaged from other outdated houses, barns and buildings.

After a decades refining his salvage mining methods, he started applying his collection to construct “new” tiny moveable homes from salvage. The prefab homes, measuring 64 sq and up, are constructed from 99% salvaged materials. The other 1% is for things like electrical components, plumbing, nails, screws, and a few insulation supplies.

Since he builds with natural substances (largely wood) or resources which have already off-gassed, he calls his homes “organic” (he makes clear he doesn't use plastics, formaldehyde, sheetrock, VOC paints, latex paint, carpet or poisonous glues and minimal vinyl or PVC).

Kittel has started a tiny home on his in Luling, Texas to embrace what he calls Pure Salvage Living. Right now he provides the homes as rentals so men and women can experience a “truly organic house”. Some of the homes are being lived in long term by workers and interns and the compound has a group kitchen and bath house. Kittel additionally hopes his village, or villages, will end up totally independent from zoning and restrictions by voting to emerge as independent towns.

He's additionally dug “four million years” beneath his home in quest of clean water and living space. He's supported this sizeable underground world with salvaged railroad ties. At the bottom of main cave lies a pool of water where Kittel wants to follow fish farming and access drinking water if needed.

There are also caves down right here that could possibly be used as dwelling areas. Kittel has already occupied one (immediately beneath his home) utilising an outdated RV (it was craned in before his home was built). He can access it by a trap door beneath his home and currently he makes use of it for solitude, however he sees its potential for underground residing.
