This space is outside our walk-in closet and between the master bedroom and master bath. <br/><br/>Folks have asked if the gaps in the wall cover boards are intentional. Yep - 100%. We’re going for rugged, durable and rustic. When you step inside our home we want it to feel like you’ve stepped inside a well used and loved farmhouse that’s been there for 80 years. Character and charm come from imperfections.<br/><br/>Originally, we planned to use reclaimed materials for the interior - wood from an old barn or church. That turned out to be too much of a hassle due to inconsistencies in pricing and availability. Instead, we went with 1x6 fence boards for wall and ceiling covering, and furring strips for trim. We think it approximates the look and have been happy with the results so far.<br/><br/>#easttexas #offgrid #homestead #barndominium #grownostr <img src="https://nostr.build/i/bc69054851d9f14128150d645f0605891f234bb97d1b7b98997f58f2c0d114ad.jpg"> 2023-06-07T14:17:29Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsqj5wwvujcv3jxsfxggkq23l8cu4e7athm9qxp7fr39hwsua7pquszyq6ns8kes0dafyumjy4a3njhlkthahx4fr3j4y2v0r4wdqnj74tsxrv7sug In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9emxnty543a44xr2qxuu2wqzm6mfv5vs9s2spg0gcq3g0kkxu2asyhzx72'>nevent1q…zx72</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Haha!

Arsenic has not been a part of the lumber treatment for sometime now. The current concern with treated lumber is that is contains fungicides. Funnily enough, I have mushrooms pop up from time to time. Doesn’t seem to be issue. 2023-04-23T18:11:03Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs2ptq3urgfuu4zctrs7hflpex7n2s5f6w8eavjre36p5r4qvpa82qzyq6ns8kes0dafyumjy4a3njhlkthahx4fr3j4y2v0r4wdqnj74tsxy6mjzf In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswzzt5hmcatv4c22rfn4p7mfzpqndhtv26zhedw75w5vzhc6yj7rq2ethsk'>nevent1q…thsk</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>No idea… Super interesting concept. 2023-04-23T17:10:13Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs0qms8v6usapjzhpgtk2a8uvqh636nf3safccpru7dpvpfhqju65szyq6ns8kes0dafyumjy4a3njhlkthahx4fr3j4y2v0r4wdqnj74tsxefrdt9 A few pics from around the farm this cool, rainy Sunday morning.<br/>#grownostr #spring #easttexas #offgrid #homestead<br/> <img src="https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_059b8a51f8ca14f374bf01418cfe2ae10cb50073cb763ec116a15df938a1355e.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_fc17570d8267cb3b329e50fa291202a1b50bbbe1cda34ca40df440a82aab9069.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_a4c0e0f3672d103825e252edb1e44a1971fb9fe4f532886a7c2a718193504b85.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_9dd6e83c001f3c1c23287ce2e9ad69c02e2a85fcab2ca074f1d822227e14aceb.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_7f69c5b432b06d7a901d3386e95d0ccd3276c3365381572acd822cd8a40d825d.jpeg"> 2023-04-23T17:08:52Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqstcrqcy8xyd9h548wuetx624c0643mv3h8efjqlg52rwpg6pgryhszyq6ns8kes0dafyumjy4a3njhlkthahx4fr3j4y2v0r4wdqnj74tsx8uzam5 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspg52l84nk9rktnvqlmugryeve96a5tcly3d953rh2f7vdhwgkuds78a6zv'>nevent1q…a6zv</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Indeed! 2023-04-22T23:40:35Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs04cfn69jhfkq4zf68ze79da5058gztj6m6659j8h6h85y898dfsszyq6ns8kes0dafyumjy4a3njhlkthahx4fr3j4y2v0r4wdqnj74tsxje4g40 Not a bad way to spend a Saturday evening!<br/>#grownostr #easttexas #offgrid #homestead<br/> <img src="https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_518e5c9551b4e05032c07b24cdc824f77b5765d20b0d016f11474d5fa89784c3.jpeg"> <br/> <img src="https://nostr.build/i/nostr.build_772a6072f129683c21f3ad92e8aed177dc408c40422448f6b71c0685d88b717e.jpeg"> 2023-04-22T23:32:29Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsr4krmqjnhptrq2hywzj7us9gnlp0juk0wsvhw4vwst95rsptk6xszyq6ns8kes0dafyumjy4a3njhlkthahx4fr3j4y2v0r4wdqnj74tsxnn5pqp In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsw3pu7m2g057grnkt5k4tk3m7rus523fhe000q67v6dk7kvy38kgqk35acf'>nevent1q…5acf</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hey!

It would take harsher winters than we typically see where I am to freeze the tanks to the point of being a problem. The main concern is the line running between the tanks and to the pump, which are insulated and covered with dirt and mulch. I can isolate each component and drain the line. Takes about 3 minutes. I do that if we’re going to see sustained below freezing temps. 2023-04-06T12:35:40Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsvz80cfcpurvvkk7wu0geyxag8lyv8knv6z9mdswz2ah3akn3n6uszyq6ns8kes0dafyumjy4a3njhlkthahx4fr3j4y2v0r4wdqnj74tsx0tjeyr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqx9c5437w5aq3lqnm90f0gc9jvqu2mf3sqqz099q3k0rfcct48fqwp55wh'>nevent1q…55wh</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Sure.<br/><br/>3x 2550 gal black poly tanks fed by one 3” PVC line, which is connected to two gutter drops on backside of barndo. All the tanks are connected via their outlet. One tank is the feed tank. Tanks equalize from bottom. Inlets are used as overflow/breather. There is a first-flush diverter kit (that is way undersized) that I use as a clean out. I used flexible couplings on the no/low pressure side to allow for settling and to make disconnects easy. I’ve got an industrial-grade automatic surface pump connected to equalization lines which goes through a 200 micron spin-down sediment filter before going into barndo and onto appliances and fixtures. Then, there is 0.5 micron filter system mounted under kitchen cabinets for drinking, ice making, etc.. Tanks are treated with bleach tabs once a quarter.<br/><br/>We get almost 50 inches of rain per year where I am in northeast Texas. My family could probably get away with only 3 tanks, but I’m planning to add more.<br/><br/>I also have two smaller, simpler setups used for irrigation and livestock.<br/><br/>If you go with IBC totes, be sure to paint black or green to avoid algae.<br/><br/>Below are pics of early in the build.<br/><br/> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/csJBN8m.jpg"> <br/><br/> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/hsseuVb.jpg"> <br/><br/> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/J4RF6uA.jpg"> <br/><br/> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/Vrk1S1L.jpg"> <br/><br/> <img src="https://i.imgur.com/wVxp3zk.jpg"> 2023-04-05T15:22:29Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqspxxmr0v5dhmnd2ecu3nau85x99xdsvcn9fvzflyum0zywel2jk9qzyq6ns8kes0dafyumjy4a3njhlkthahx4fr3j4y2v0r4wdqnj74tsx5kmcuk In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsy4g4mqhm8xy50wvr6ynva8xne3vpx9p587pdmaznp952fualqhcsqle9ps'>nevent1q…e9ps</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Was wondering same thing.
