The surrounding metal has been placed on the perimeter wall and the arrows and leaves are in the process of being painted. The paint used for the decorative elements of the metal are a special yellow primer and gold paint. (31-Jul-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

After many problems with dirty well water the problem was finally resolved. There is a large break in the bottom of the well (lower left side), which is seen once all the water is pumped out. The hole needs to be patched so water cannot 'pour' in like this. (12-Jul-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

Decorative work on the entryway. Decorative bricks were placed around the entry posts and cement is used as a border material. (10-Jul-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

The finished large bathroom attached to the master bedroom. (06-Jul-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

The 1600 liter water tank. This tank has an electronic valve which allows the tank to drop to 1/2 full (or are you thinking 'half empty'?) before turning the pump on to refill it. There are two pumps used, one pumps from the tank to the house and one pumps from the well to the tank. (02-Jul-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

The bathtub being framed in the large bathroom. It will be supported by 4 columns of red bricks and will be enclosed in tile. There are still two more columns of bricks to be added. (25-Jun-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

The house has 5 variable mounted roof fans and 35 down lights. In this room the down lights are on dimmer switches. All of the down lights as well as all of the electric is 'grounded'. (18-Jun-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

This is the poured base for the small bathroom shower enclosure. Unfortunately it isn't supposed to be 'raised' like this so this was later leveled and done a second time. (15-Jun-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

On the left you can see the hot and cold water PVC pipes running the length of the back wall. The copper hot water pipe is housed in PVC for durability. The pipes will run under the back walkway, which is being poured in this picture. The back walkway is more than 1 meter wide, and will slant off to the right into a drainage canal to aid in water runoff. (07-Jun-04)dozerSep 28, 2011

This is a heavy duty (and also just plain heavy!) 75 liter wall mount hot water heater. There are metal brackets on the other side of the wall to add holding support. (04-Jun-04) dozerSep 28, 2011

The floor tiling is complete. Now the only thing left to do is do a 10 centimeter tile border around the entire floor. (30-May-04)dozerSep 28, 2011
