Building
our Green Bamboo
Home
The
house took
about one month
to get from
Vietnam to
Hawaii,
once they were
finished
putting it
together and
taking it
apart...
Then it goes
through
customs, which
took a few
extra days,
then over to
us...
Usually the
container is
brought
directly to the
work site,
but because of
our location,
and a few hard
turns,
a 40 foot
container
couldn't make
it to our
property,
so Todd, our
foreman/contractor,
let us off load
it on his,
which is only a
couple miles
from ours.

There were
perhaps 10 guys
total..
including Shaun
and friends
Ruben and
Ray
Most of the
panels are 8x8,
weighing
several hundred
pounds!
This is our
main double
door entrance,
which weighs
even more than
that!

Here's our
truck loaded
and ready!
I think they
made 3-4 trips
to get our
house to the
property...

Once at the
building site,
it is all off
loaded and
stacked in
piles
according to
where that
piece
goes...
