Afforestation
- Perennial polyculture for every region.
- Easement for permanent preservation of land with perennial plant swarm breeding experiments.
Mid Band
- Lift or forks on a MicroTrac- like device are a good idea. One option. Another option is short power ladder. Such as a telescoping power ladder which means it is adjustable. Can be powered with a cordless drill. Thus - 3D printed geardowns with rubber belts.
Nailing Off + Taping
- Top plate first and second from underneath on scaffolds 'self-propelled' - So that platform crew can work. There appears to be no difference force wise in nailing top plates from top or bottom.
- It seems butyl sticks better to OSB than acrylic. This would facilitate application. But - acrylic seems to stick better to house wrap fuzzy side (Block It brand).
- Time about 1-2 min per seam of 8'. 60 vertical seams + 3 bands (45 more 8' equivalent) for 105 seams. 2-4 hr total - just seam taping, not other logistics. Mid band- and top band are addressed at same time as nailing. Hardest part is high up. Scaffold could do, manlift is probably better.
- Setting up smooth surface for scaffolding around house is probably most important - slightly declined to house so scaffold leans against house and not away from it.
- Another solution - tape from inside, but then OSB must be tight to wood. Should be if 6" nailing schedule.
General Workflow
- Logistics double the effort. 'production' must be extended to make-load for transport- load to allow correct build order straight from trailer. This way, production is paid for loading, and eliminates unloading - producing 3x productivity at the same cost. Avoids loading effort, unloading effort - which are integrated into the production side. Savings of 2x for comfortable production ergonomics on a work table.
Ergonomics
Wash Sink
On many Japanese toilets, the hand wash sink is attached so that you can wash your hands and reuse the water for the next flush. Japan saves millions of liters of water every year doing this. pic.twitter.com/HmDGu73iqa
