(Despite his crabby response as to why he charges such astronomical prices on his blog.) There's enough for the needs of humanity, if properly managed--but there will never be enough for the greeds of humanity. Re: Jay Shafer @ Tumbleweed Tiny House:

So the actual size of this one is 12x16 not 8x12. I am going to add a page from his plan book that shows this idea better as I know I was confused also.

You might even be able to thumb your nose at your obnoxious neighbours especially when the Heating & Hydro bills come in. What doesn't look right to me though is the Depth is 12 ft while the Width appears to be larger than 8ft. If the bed is set to the Depth as in the drawing that measurement isn't 12ft. Was this an error in the drawing?
