2017 The Quompound in Review

Let's fly through the year and see everything we got done at the Quompound! Two Quonsets, family, friends, amazing Arizona skies. We pushed ourselves beyond what we ever thought we could do, and this is just the beginning!

Two dream homes come TRUE; for two neighbors. Beautiful!

[@jennifermangham4545]

The windows on the side make this home look so much better!

[@CleverModerns]

Thanks so much!

Ya nice video. Wish I could live in one. I used to on and off in the past. As a Marine I was always thankfull to get out of the weather. Ours were bare bones but it beat sleeping in mud and snow. Nice music to.

Thats me in the green tent. Ha. Im so excited to get up north. Im willing to live in a tent, till my hut is completed. Could you tell us in the future builds what size you are building? I'd like to build a 900 to 1000 foot hut. Thank you.

Awesome! wish the video speed was a bit slower to enjoy the build. This is my Off-Grid dream build like a "Quompound" consisting of 4 huts, a main dwelling unit, an outdoor kitchen unit (partially-open) a separate guest studio, and a garage/workshop unit. #QuonsetUtopia #QuomPound #Off-Grid

So, what do you think of Arched Cabins versus this. This is a larger and older company but I do like that Arched Cabin has an actual frame.

[@CleverModerns]

I don't have direct experience with the arched cabins personally but I'm a sucker for the perfect semicircle of the Q model. The arched cabins are cool though! I don't dislike them. I like that the Quonsets have bolts and you can use the inside threads to attach framing etc. for your ceiling. I'm not sure how that works with the arched cabins. They probably have some way of doing similar. I don't think they can handle as much snow load but I could be wrong about that. Just haven't looked into them except for seeing pictures of them online.

Nice is it insulated ???

[@CleverModerns]

Yes! I wrote it up on my blog! www.clevermoderns.com/insulating-the-quonset-hq-hut/

[@MrBagley55]

What company or Manufacturer did you end up using?

[@CleverModerns]

These are from SteelMaster USA. We had a good experience with them!

[@lotus....]

We have a 78 ft building like this. We need windows on the sides like this for ventilation. It is really stuffy with only openings on the two ends. Where did you find the metal pieces to make the windows fit into the corrugated sides? Thanks

[@CleverModerns]

You can only get window kits from the original manufacturer. I wrote about this in my FAQ at www.clevermoderns.com/faq

[@brennatotten6058]

What part of Arizona did you build?

[@ashleyrogers7142]

What size it that im looking to move very soon less than a month

[@CleverModerns]

Ours in this video are 25' x 28'.

[@ashleyrogers7142]

@@CleverModerns thank u

[@deborahgrantham7387]

Where is the insulation?

[@tedmartin5239]

The music is annoying as hell.

[@sitori663]

I love the music! But to each their own! Those not liking it can turn the volume off. Love these short videos.
