As you can see we have all had training with the tractor. It has become a necessity at Severin EarthShip. Getting used all the time. We thought that this would help to save our backs and not have to use the wheel borrow as often. Other pieces of equipment that we have purchased are a plate compactor, a gas generator ( for running Allens power tools)
( we are having technical difficulties with our keyboard), and a CTS, Berger ( this is a laser level.) The laser level is to help to make sure that the land is level. It is difficult here with the hills to determine if the area is level or not. When we were getting the land ready for the pole barn we thought we had it level. We were up to 10 inches off on one side. Even using a line level we were way off. We dont want to be off for our home.

Looks like you're having FUN plus actually getting something accomplished! Wondering if you would be interested in 3 pkgs of Laminine. I would charge what I paid $30/each :) Peace & Love,

Hello Deb, No I would not be interested in Laminine at the moment. Thank you for thinking of me. Yes, we are attempting to get things accomplished. Been raining a little too much the past few days so we are not getting much done. Or so it seems.

Getting a great laser level has been wonderful in building our Earthship - especially during the tire pounding phase. While pounding tires (3 months!) this was used everyday throughout the day! And when you are finishing the walls later you will be so happy for taking the time to get it right (plus, not having the walls fall in will be great).
