Tipis and platform tents
#15
Seeb -

One of the things I've been thinking about is having a catchment tank with a sloped roof cover (that would be more square footage than the surface of the tank to provide storage area for solar powered batteries). This would provide a surface area to catch water as well as provide space/support for solar panels.

I have some friends living "tent style". They have a couple of tarp car ports set up with side "walls". Pallets laid down on the ground, covered by plywood, with their tent on top of that. Less than $1000 and works for long term living (if you had to).
