Jay Shafer is headed to New York
Over the past several weeks we’ve watched Jay and his crew build a Tumbleweed Fencl. Now Jay is headed to New York, tiny house in tow. he’ll make 14 scheduled stops along the way and hold tiny house design and building workshops in Boulder, Chicago, and New York. Kent at Tiny House Blog will be following his progress and posting regular updates. Here’s the first post and photos as Jay hits the road.
Jay Shafer’s Fencl is Nearing Completion
My friend Kent Griswold took a drive over to Jay Shafer’s place to photograph the latest Tumbleweed Tiny House under construction. These photos are hot off the press. There are now over 30 pages of construction photos of this tiny house and I suggest starting with the most recent photos and work your way backwards.
This is also the house Jay is planning on taking on his coast-to-coast tour. He’s going to take this tiny house from San Francisco to New York and is scheduled to begin May 25, 2009. Visit Tiny House Journal to see more tiny houses under construction. Photo credit Kent Griswold.
Tumbleweed Fencl & Coast to Coast Tour
Jay Shafer and crew are busy building a Tumbleweed Fencl that he’ll take with him on a coast to coast tour this summer. Last summer he did a border to border tour and traveled from the Canadian border to the Mexican border. This summer he’ll take this new house from San Francisco to New York. Jay will stop in 14 different cities along the way for house tours. He’ll also be teaching workshops in Boulder, Chicago, and New York. Be sure to visit the Tumbleweed website for more details.
