Baruch77, Instructables works for me. Maybe try it again. But I identified three that were not working (probably originally found too long ago now), and I believe I've properly corrected/updated those. Thanks for the two you've suggested. Let's keep this going!

I'm sure the changes reflect and implement the best direction. If the video can be fit in again, *some*place, then I think it can be valuable for some people (hence also for FarmHack). Another thing that I miss are the icons indicating recent comments (their topic, and who made the comment). These used to be on the FarmHack home-page. On the "Conversations" page all I see on my browser is a list, and I find it somewhat harder to understand and find my way with it. Just *my* feeling... FWIW.

I don't know anything, really, about single-cylinder diesel engines, but I [made a search on Google Images:](https://www.google.ca/search?q=single+cylinder+diesel+engine&biw=1137&bih=501&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=pF_jVNrhIpSzoQSF6YDQBg&sqi=2&ved=0CBwQsAQ&dpr=0.9) So, I got to wondering if second-hand (rebuilt or rebuild-able) diesel engines might be obtained for a modest investment. I don't know, but maybe somebody here on FH does.

Hi, Chris. Yes, I think along the same line as Appropedia... I've been on that site many times. Here's something I got going, along this line. It's on a fairly obscure web site, but has still had nearly 35,000 views by now... http://www.sufficientself.com/threads/upcycled-repurposed-projects-many.11661/ I think there is great potential for fulfilling needs by using common or stock parts, used & repurposed components, plus ingenuity.

No 'comments' yet on this, but still would like to get some. In the mean time, I found this on Youtube. Others of you who may be interested in this topic might find it interesting to watch. A 16-year-old boy builds tiny house on his parents' rural/suburban land: [a link](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXDu2U-CmkI) There's a part-two vid that shows the house functional sided, and finished to quite an extent.
