If u are Interested in simple solar homesteading as i am, check out this ebook. at first, i was skeptical, and since i have had it for over a month, i found it is sooo worth it.

For $5 you can have Lamar's 198 page ebook complete with detailed plans and pictures to build a solar cabin for under $2000 and 17 other homesteader plans.

That's an interesting website, Diana. The cabin is just a tad too rustic for my taste, lol, but it shows what can be done.

rpleger: it is soo worth the $5, and u get it right away via the net. it has so many other things u can make, like a solar water heater, etc., etc. it has great pics and nstructions.

About the ebook, the author also has a forum for people that are into energy saving and sustainable living. On his forum, he is now helping me to design a sun space to keep my home both warm in winter and cooler in summer.

sure is a bargain for $5.
