Build a Tiny House Workshop in Melbourne
Date(s) - December 7, 2017 - December 12, 2017
Time - 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm
This is a third-party event not organised by Permablitz. We've added it because we reckon it looks pretty good!
Location - Hollyburton
Have you ever dreamt of owning a Tiny House? These great little spaces can be used for living, holidays or studios and are extremely portable! If you’ve read about or seen the growing Tiny House movement and now want to get hands-on learning how to build your own, then this is your chance! Come and build a tiny house at Hollyburton Organic Farm, just a short drive from Melbourne in the beautiful country air.
What will you learn at the Workshop
At our workshop, you will build a 2.4m x 4m room on its own wheels. It’s a hands-on workshop and all the materials will be ready so everyone can be involved in the construction from the start to finish. Rob will explain all of the hows and whys as we go. So whether you have some building experience or you’re feeling daunted and don’t know where to start with tiny house construction, come along and join in.
Areas of study and construction covered:
Drawing up plans
Fixing the structure to the base (trailer or truck)
Stud framing
Fitting windows and doors
Corrugated walls and roofing
Internal wiring
Insulation
Pine lining
Timber flooring
Built-in furniture
Architraves skirting’s and cornices
All organic food and accommodation in a tiny house are included. Arrive on Thursday night for a fresh early start Friday morning, finishing at the end of the day on Wednesday.
About Rob:
Rob trained as an architect at Melbourne University in the early 90’s but couldn’t handle being stuck an office all day so he bought a farm instead. Over the last few years, he has been building gorgeous studio tracks and studio rooms for his family and clients. These trucks are fantastic extra spaces – just park it, plug in an extension cord and voila you have a beautiful room or house.
