The Situation. I finally got my jeweler’s bench down into the bottom of my hut! The pot belly stove needs complete replacing. So no heating and here in New Zealand we are at the start of winter and not to mention its extremely damp and wet living right in the NZ rain forest bush! The power has been a problem. But the good news is I finally got a working power inverter, which for the electrical geeks takes up to 350 watts. Basically only enough to charge my phone and run a small reading light. Definitely no machinery like tumblers, drill presses, pendant or polishing motors, or blenders even. With all thee above said thermals and blankets have been working a treat so far! And at least there is a bench to sit at and an entire tool box of hand tools to take advantage of.

For now I am having so much fun learning a new primal way of life. And thinking about how I would adorn myself without the reliance’s of today’s conveniences. To use all these limitations to my advantage.
