Interesting site for DIY things

My uncle sent me this site. It has a lot of interesting DIY projects. Its based in Africa where of course they don't have a ton of excess, so they make due with what they have.

Nice find. We take so many things for granted, being able to buy pretty much everything at the nearest store or on the internet.

That biogas setup is interesting

I'd like to have a biogas system at home.

My neighbor has two horses and he doesn't use any of the waste that I'm aware of. Biogas should be able to power a variety of items I use around the house. Being able to bottle it under pressure might be a trick though.........much contemplating and Googling required.

The site is an interesting find. Hard to say it can't be done with the resources we have available to us, when they do it with far fewer resources.
