Learn how to build a tiny house on a special course


If you're interested in learning how to build your own tiny house (and to build more sustainably into the bargain), friend of Shedworking Rik Frankland of wudl will be running a hands-on Tiny House short course at their Manchester training space. Over five days, participants will learn the key skills of sustainable construction (timber framing, insulation, cladding, windows, roofing) by building a dog kennel-sized tiny house

Places are limited to just 12 participants and no previous building experience required. Price per person is £695. More details here.

Here are some more details:

Working in small groups, you’ll use hand tools such as drill-drivers, staplers and hammers to assemble the structure step by step. You’ll fit natural insulation, membranes and tapes, install a window, fix cladding and gutters, and wire up a safe 12V lighting system. For safety reasons, all cutting of sheet and large sections will be done for you.
