Starting out Ideas

So, I came up with an idea which would help me. Namely sponsorship. I will have different companies with good products to install there products and then I use the home as a demo at renewable energy fairs, Earth fest, ballgames, and other public gatherings. This way, products are not just talked about and shown a few photos. People can see, feel, and think about how a product may work for them.

For example, Today, I went to Korwall Industries, Inc. and talked with Stan Dimmick. Korwall is a brand of structural integrated panel SIP use to make walls, floors, and even roofs. They are made in Arlington, TX which make it as local as you can get with me. Basically, it is Styrofoam (think cooler) sandwiched between two pieces of wood of some sort. It can be plywood, strawboard or other recycled wood. They call it other stuff, but that just gets it less personal.

I am in talks with Stan. We will have to take some time to set the design ideas in stone and I know a trailer must be bought first. And with a trailer, a means to move it is needed. I figure renting a truck during these times will fix that issue. But, I am open to ideas.

I am starting this search for usable products. So, if you have one and would like for me to test and show it, then send me an email and I will love to see value of it. For example, I plan on having solar panels (hot water and PV), and rainwater collection with the house. I know I don't need a refreg as big as the one in my apartment nor a freezer as big as mine. So there is one area that I will be researching in the future. I know ovens and stoves have some limits on size because after super the leftovers of a full size pizza still make good breakfast.

Here is something that I will have in the bathroom
