    Currently we are building an eco cabin and would love help doing interior fittings eg making kitchen shelves etc.
    We are looking for someone with some experience with wood to help with this, would need to be confident to help out alone at times and self initiate to a certain extent. We are hoping to get the cabin plumbed and fitted with a burner using a solar powered pump and an all off grid rain water system. this is the main project for september.
