Sounds awesome! Is your 200 manual a starting point for your book. Sounds like it!? I’d definitely be interested in reading your manual. Though I’m not sure the other members of my family would be so easily convinced to play with mud. I don’t think I mentioned this before but I developed rheumatoid arthritis when I was about 16, so it was around then that my physical capabilities ended, so my memories of before 16 are extra precious to me. I was a runner, champion swimmer, horseback rider and enthusiastic hiker before then, but I got a very bad case and was forecasted to be in a wheelchair before I was 18. Thankfully, I’ve resisted the wheelchair for over three decades, but even light physical exertion leaves me feverish, in pain and badly inflamed. It’s something I’ve had to adapt to, sadly. My mind wants to create a home made of earth, my body not so much. I could definitely make a model though.

No I didn’t know about your arthritis. That sounds like it sux. Especially having been so active. From one extreme to another right? It sounds like you manage your reality well and that you’ve acquired a lot of mental and emotional strength.. Much respect.

So ok let’s just build the model and see what happens. I’ll send you the manual. First I wrote the book which only had minor references to building a small scale model and recently I created the manual when I realised that the model might be a more practical way of getting started. I created an addendum for the manual which is as many of the practical things one might take into consideration when building in LifeSize using the festive community approach.

So the manual is for the model. Shall I post it up here?

The book is more about how the vision was born and developed as well as the practical things for how and why to involve everyone in a festive approach for building with earth with a “sky’s the limit” mindset. But now I think I want to narrow it down to my reality and follow my journey to the sleeping pod reality and rewrite the story through that lens - leading to the sleeping pod while also keeping it open for all the other possibilities in the imagination of the reader.

It might be easier to share it with you as a Google doc what’s your email?
