Arnold, CA…Out by our campfire area we have a wooden twig fence. The squirrels had knocked off several of our decorative sugar pinecones that we had hanging from it. We fixed that and put a bit of linseed oil on our Adirondack Chairs ahead of winter. Actually is was just an excuse to enjoy a […]
Arnold, CA…As Pacific Gas & Electric brings power back to nearly 80,000 customers across dozens of Northern and Central California counties we though it would be good time to let people know there are options that can provide most of the convenience of the grid, without the grid. Complete immunity to utility shutoffs and grid […]
Philadelphia, PA…Our Favorite Founding Father is Ben Franklin. He didn’t just help found our country during the 1776 era. For two generations before he helped sell concepts of Freedom, Self-Determination & Inalienable rights. From 1733 to 1758 Poor Richard’s Almanac helped create the unique American identity in a homey, common sense, aspirational way. A few […]

Arnold, CA…In 1862, America made a simple deal: work the land, and you can own it. The Homestead Act gave millions of families a stake in the country. Today we face a different frontier. We are millions of homes short. Young people delay families. Many feel being able to own a small piece of the […]
Arnold, CA…In this weeks video on our work on the Chainsaw Cabin we make extremely budget friendly glue. What we have found in our extreme budget cabin build is that the largest portion of our expenses have been for glue, fasteners, screws, nails etc. For the chinking or filler between our plank floor boards and […]
Arnold, CA…Thanks for Joining us Again! When we first started Hewn the entire focus was can you still build a livable small cabin for almost no money? The Godfather of tiny homes and minimalistic living is Henry David Thoreau. He built his cabin for $28.12½ in 1845 (Roughly $900 to $1,000 in today’s money). Could […]
