Temperatures are dropping in many parts of the country, making it tough to work outdoors. Take a cue from our friend Joe Mooney and build your own workshop! Joe got creative and turned a rusty old shipping container into a pristine work space, complete with a beautiful gray ONDURA roof and awning. Check it out and get inspired: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdNTPyFsc0w

Multi Use Spaces Posted on 30 Sep 05:00 , 0 comments

We are big fans of multi-use spaces, and this underground earthbag MusArt studio is one of our all-time favorites. Built by our friends at My Little Homestead, there is plenty of room inside for music and art projects, and the exterior design gets artistic points, too. We especially love the stylish red ONDURA roof, and the homesteaders love how easy it was to cut and install compared to metal roofing. Check it out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00RMjtWI1qc

We recently showed you a sneak peak of a copper patina counter in a chocolate shop, designed by the brilliant Sarah James. In her latest how-to video, Sarah shows you how to create this patina / faux rust finish using TUFTEX PolyDecor, paint, and creativity!

Dog House Posted on 16 Sep 05:00 , 0 comments
Everything Joe Mooney builds is spectacular, so we weren’t at all surprised to see the stunning metal, wood, and ONDURA dog house he built for his new puppy, Olive. We love the industrial design and are glad Joe used metal for the trim and not the roof; he knows ONDURA roofing sheets are much quieter than metal roofing in rain and hail storms, so Olive can stay safe, dry, and calm under her ONDURA roof!

Carport Creations Posted on 9 Sep 05:00 , 0 comments

Your car may have fared well outside during the spring and summer months, but as the weather changes, consider a carport to protect it from winter elements. We love this one April Wilkerson built with TUFTEX PolyCarbonate panels in translucent smoke gray to help shield cars from winter weather and summer sun, while still letting in the light. Check it out here www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYN0dCDRh5o

DIY Tyler is an awesome builder and an even better dad. We are honored he chose our 9-corrugation ONDURA Tile for the backyard “restaurant” he built for his daughter. General Motors was so impressed, they featured it in a GMC credit card ad. We can’t wait to see what Tyler builds next!

Dropping temperatures don’t have to mean the end of growing season. Our friend Joe Mooney keeps his plants thriving in his innovative sunken greenhouse, featuring clear TUFTEX PolyCarbonate panels. Learn how he did it and tour the greenhouse here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TynzRWHsZOI. To learn more, watch the full eight-part video series on Joe's Homesteadonomics YouTube channel.

Tuftex Solar Kiln Posted on 19 Aug 05:00 , 0 comments

If you need to dry fire wood for winter and are feeling adventurous, why not build your own solar kiln, like our friends at An American Homestead did? The kiln is the brainchild of Virginia Tech, and the homesteaders designed it to work in conjunction with their saw mill. Check out how they did it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iDj_Ceschw

We’ve seen many cool dog houses, but this is one of our favorites because it was auctioned off to benefit an animal charity. Our friend Heather Stiletto built it with recycled pallets, TUFTEX and ONDURA. The dog house is roomy enough for large Mastiffs and even for use as a funky log cabin for small children!

Texas Greenhouse Posted on 5 Aug 05:00 , 0 comments

Cacti and succulents abound in this traditional greenhouse in suburban Fort Worth. Built roughly ten years ago, it is a great example of the durability of TUFTEX PolyCarbonate panels, even in the unforgiving Texas sun. The builder chose TUFTEX because “the panels are lightweight, flexible and easy to cut to size.” He adds, “this is one of the best projects I’ve ever done. I love my greenhouse!” Interested in building your own? Visit us at TUFTEXPanel.com
