  • ASK A BUILDER-HOW WOULD YOU BUILD YOUR RETIREMENT HOME? My retirement home will be a Hemp Home!  I feel a Hemp Home addresses the main issue facing mankind today (co2 emissions) without sacrificing comfort needed in both energy and lifestyle choices.

    To ensure that my retirement income will provide the needed security as I age in place my hemp home will enable me to use natural resources in the building of the energy efficient structure-controlling costs in the build and the future energy costs.
     Taking pointers from the first American Settlers:  I will build my home from the land and use as many natural resources as possible.

Design Notes:
  • With 1 shaft operating 2 cable spools will ensure 'level and even' travel of Platform Lift as it raises and lowers between floors
  • Safety Rail Added to Final CAD Design
  • The Simplicity of the setup will add to the longevity of the Platform Lift System as well as the required maintenance needed to lubricate the cables and pulleys
  • Wheel Guide and Basement Floor Cut-Away-keeps platform centered in Lift Shaft for ease of loading and unloading of cargo
  • Inexpensive Option when compared to installing an elevator to move materials.
