Guest guest Posted December 25, 2005 Report Share Posted December 25, 2005 Bob and , Have you guys ever seen these? They're Modernist PreFab Homes. As I understand it, many of these can be greatly customized. Regardless of mold, I think some of these are pretty cool.

Is there a particular brand of travel trailer which is good and then make a few necessary modifications? Basically , what should we be looking for in a " safe house " .< I can't tell if a house is good or bad after I've been " hit " . So I get " clear " and then go directly to the place and assess my response by trying to sleep there. A lot of places that seem ok turn out to be bad for me if the wind changes directions, so I have to be there under various weather conditions and wind directions. The bothersome thing is wondering if your " good " place will go bad and trailers are ESPECIALLY bad about this. I haven't found any brand that I would trust. The materials have really gotten bad since wood prices went out of sight and good kiln dried wood became a thing of the past. I like the metal buildings with cement floors - hangar style. They are getting quite good and even look like regular homes now. They understand " thermal bridging " and can control for a fair degree of heat loss through proper insulation. If I were to erect a permanent structure - I would choose a metal building. But as I've found, if my neighbor is letting out a ripping spore plume, it negates the whole point. So it would have to be fairly isolated to be really trustworthy. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
