From Timber Framing to Solar Power

from Shop Class Podcast

Shop Class Podcast we're covering two topics! First, Tim and Nick share their experience at Catskill Mountain Maker Camp with Justin Dietrich and Jimmy Diresta. They attended Justin's Timber Framing Class and will be filling us in on all the fun. Second, Matt Foley, of Sunlight Conversions joins us to talk about all the awesome things he does with solar energy. Matt took the diesel engine out of his sailboat and replaced it with an electric motor. He rarely has to charge it because the solar panels on the top keep the batteries topped up. He also doesn't need a generator because the batteries have enough power to run the cabin requirements. Taking that experience, he now has an off-grid solar system at his house that he did with a DIY installation however it is inspected by the town so Matt has experience making his DIY systems compliant with the town and the local utility.
