Re: [Strawbale] Big Bale Building (BBB) workshop in PermaLot, right after ESBG 2011



Dear Max,

I'm interested to follow this workshop. I want to build my BBB-dreamhouse. As an engineer I can be architect for my own building. And I let building engineers calculate my building if it is strong enough. 

I have a problem with my neck as I had several whiplashes. I can't lift weights. Is it possible to follow the workshop in this condition? I can take pictures of the building proces.

Can you make my dream come true?

PS Congratulations with the ESBG 2011 coming on.

Cheers,

Bruno Cassiers

Onderwerp: [Strawbale] Big Bale Building (BBB) workshop in PermaLot, right after ESBG 2011

Dear all,

Today we received a very pleasant surprise: The information that our 
workshop application was approved anyhow (Last month we were told there 
wasn't any funding). Noe Solsona, Michal Kallesen and I are ready to 
facilitate the 10 day workshop, accommodation and travel is funded, now 
who wants to be the 15 European participants who get to enjoy all of 
this for free?
We're hoping to get a fair part of experienced balers already involved 
with (or  seriously interested in setting up) BBB businesses, though the 
workshop is open for all EU residents (N, CH, etc.)

Here's the program outlined in the application: Please be aware that 
we'll adjust the program in accordance with experience and needs of the 
participants:

planning; 50% hands on building activity. Focus on small group work to

their own BBB house project, using model, Sketch-up, and including a 
Gantt chart, budget etc.

their own house project, using model, Sketch-up, and including a Gantt

To apply: Please outline your interest and previous experience in a mail 
to me (no; don't simply hit reply and bother this e-list!).
Please reply fast; we don't have much time to waste... And please help 
in getting this mail disseminated in Eastern Europe too; believe there's 
many who's not subscribed to this list...

Cheers,
