The Do It Yourself World

Living off the grid in the woods in an RV. I am living in an RV which is powered by solar panels and wind turbines. I have a homemade wood stove from a barrel kit and do everything myself. I am fully off the grid. This year I will work towards self sufficiency by providing my own food and animals to sustain a living out here in the woods without the need for outside utilities or stores.

The goal of The Off Grid Project is to become fully self sufficient and show you how you can also get off the grid on a budget.

Some of my projects are cobbled together with used materials and even discarded junk. Some of my projects are more durable and reliable. The idea is to show variable alternatives to reach the same goal based on your budget.

I record my daily life and struggles and share them here for you all. The comments are an open discussion for people to share ideas and learn from one another. I have a forum where you can share larger plans and ideas and where people can go to gain help on their path to independence.
