Tim an I are in the middle of upgrading our solar power system in the wofati from our goal zero system to a larger inverter batteries an bigger solar panels. This is what tim built to hold the panels so they are easier to move around for exposure. It will set on top the wofati.

This is the new solar panels "installed" on the roof of the wofati

Some "friends" letting us watch them

Could the oil drum pocket rocket be covered in cob? I have two little ones and I like how the feed is higher. I am hoping that putting cob around it will make it a little cooler to the touch as well as add some much needed asthetics.
