also since mossy rock has quite a few rivers

would be nice to get a water wheel up and running

for energy + milling

I was thinking the same

Back.

Not to mention the aesthetic value alone lol

water wheel + coil generator

Is there a class I should take to learn about this or stuffbi should watch? I have no experience in wood working

take manufacturing and construction or something

or electrical engineering

Theres probably some in your nearest community college.

Woodworking is pretty eassy to learn the basics of.

i once read somewhere that whaterwheels were historically a huge economic stepping stone when they were invented, we definitely have to look into building one

I kind of imagine this whole project taking a rustic Germanic/Nordic folkish sort of aesthetic to it.

yes

What I mean is be prepared for every white nationalist group in existence to be taking photos of us for propaganda lol

Especially once we moving the families in

mhm

Guys, I hate to say it but mossy rock isn't gonna work. Just look at the prices per acre. We could buy one acre on the island or 20 on the mainland.

I'd say too, if we're planning to try and expand, an island isn't the place to start.

^^

yeah

Do we have any comparable mainland locations?

Both of these places are large enough to support a few people and close enough to a large city for jobs and supplies.

Those process aren't bad

*prices

Yeah, if everybody chipped in a few grand we could move in next week.

Let alone in a year once more people are ready to move in

How are we gonna pool our money together by the way?

Is there like a private version of pages like gofundme just so we can keep giving until we have enough?

No idea, hoping someone else would figure that out.

Where's our money goy in this group?

paypal?

or we could maybe open up a joint account

in a bank

I'd like something more like a gofundme where we could have accountability and see the amount of money we have raised my the dollar

What if we posted it as an "eco farm" project or some shit

Somebody with a good credit score could buy it with a mortgage and as we show up we bring money to pay it off. If I understand correctly there isn't a downside to paying it off early.

That's probably true

I like it. We make a "fake" kickstarter project to raise money for buying land.
