I would like to know if you provide more information about the operation and assembly of the equipment, in order to replicate the project in other ways. I noticed that quite a few pages are inactive. Do you charge for consulting services?

Chipper: I cannot find the project and I had an idea

Thu, 16 Feb 2023 11:18:43 -0700

Hi there I am not an engineer BUT I had an idea
Would it be possible to connect this machine to a bike so to avoid power problems such as emissions or batteries or distance from renewable sources?
If people could just use it biking to smash organic waste or small wooden waste or leaves from agricultural works or pruning ect ---

Also wondering if with a dynamo mechanism, it could self-power a sort of accompanied ride or to boost its power to make it usable without too much effort --- could be interesting these chippers get broken easily and it takes ages to repair them :D -- thanks

CEB Press: Soil composition for the Press

Fri, 11 Mar 2022 10:02:54 -0700

Greetings. I am very interested in the CEB press for producing Compressed Earth Bricks to the same dimensions as standard fired clay bricks. I wish to know however if it is possible for a normal mud brick that is pressed in the machine to have similar properties to the clayly ones that OpensourceEcology produced for the micro house?

Getting soil appraised for clay content isn't a problem for me as I am a geology student, however I wish to know if simple mud is a good idea for a insulating, structural brick. By itself or by addition with lime mortar. Thanks for the help.

Best regards,

David

part nº2: Possibility for offline export

Mon, 11 Oct 2021 08:32:34 -0700

Is there any officially supported means of exporting the OSE guides for offline storage?

Official Website: Is opensourceecology.org, or opensourceecology.dozuwiki.com official?

Sat, 24 Apr 2021 11:40:53 -0700

Dear Open Source Ecology,

I find it confusing that there appear to be 2 separate web pages for open source ecology:

opensourceecology.org,

opensourceecology.dozuwiki.com

Which of these pages is the official page? Should they resources not be pooled into a single source instead of split among different sites?

Module - Overall Machine: Can next version be Electric?

Can the next version of the PowerCube be an electric replacement? I would much rather build with a silent motor that I can recharge from my solar panels than a combustion one.
