some photos from Bigung - Borneo

 

 

  Mamas Haus...... deep in the Forrest of Borneo

 

... as the house was before October 2012....

...with clean spring water .... and 5m static head ontop of Stone wood - its the most heavy wood of

the world, its density is approximately the same as water (1g/qqcm), but its structur kills each saw blade...

its one of  the most natural robust resistive material what you can find theire for buildings .... it could stay

50....70 years in the jungle, hardness according Brinell scale ~55...~70 (raw steel has 70...80)

you can imagine to nail without drilling is impossible....

 

 

 

.... Party

 

WC in the forrest.....

Me:

preparation of the main MCB box - (later installed at the ware house together with a generator)

the selfmade bricks are still to soft in order to install everything directly to the wall...

exiting - do it with the most simple available parts, we brought it from Germany and China...

 

first part is ready to use in December, one room and the open kittchen

 

 

Alce and Ribka

 

 

 

all work is pure handmade  - no machine!

 

thats the things we miss in Germany - fresh sweet Ananans and other fruits

 

 

... of course the chicken was growing in the nature....

 

as we said..... hand made

wood from the forrest

basic material is possible to buy

- steel

- cement

- pasir

- coral

- granit                              here we go - first foundation with sloop

 

 

Drilling into the earth, 35 m and we have clear ground water

more than we need, but drilling by hand....

 

here the tools  for hand made 6" hole

 

these are the pipes to fill the drilled hole - ending 32 meter below the ground

and than a pump has heavy work
