Possible how-to build an electric bike!!!

I have got to study how others make their bikes electric....I found this video and it was very helpful! I just need to get the parts together now and recruit a friend to help me:D If you know where I can find any of these parts relatively cheap please let me know! :D

Going back to 2 wheels???

When we were young the only way to get around without depending on our parents was our bike! Unless we walked..but biking was so much faster! With the price of gas continuing to rise....I am highly considering going back to 2 wheels! I am looking to do it in a different way than before tho! I am going to attempt an electric bike! This is a bike that I will be able to pedal as well as run on electric power! There are electric scooters and bikes that do not allow you to pedal along as well. This causes a problem if for whatever reason you run out of your charge! This way....if I happen to run out of a charge while on my bike...I can use my own power to get where I'm going! Another plus is that I also get exercise on an electric bike instead of just sitting and being along for the ride. So if all goes well I will have a bike similar to this:

A small house from a storage shed?!?!?

So....I have been brainstorming about my housing options! I think this one that I am going to share today is actually....doable! The main issue I have right now is that I don't have anywhere to build it!....so I'm gonna build it here!:) I search and searched on lowes.com and homedepot.com and found one that I think would work the best out of what they offer:



These are images from home depots website. It is a 12x24 building....it is close to 300 sq. ft. Yes...its small. But if it was only for me and I OWNED it and it helped me get out of debt! I could live there as long as it takes! I could seperate it into 2 rooms...one 12x12 living room and one 12x12 bedroom...which is a good size for both...totally doable:) I have thought about making an addition to the barn for a bathroom or....i could make one that is accessible from the bedroom as well as the living room area. this would take space away from the bed room...but it would still be fine. I would put a loft in the bedroom or a loft bed...and use that to make room for a desk under the loft. I plan to draw it to scale in photo shop:) and put it on here!

One of the things I really don't have a clue about is the plumbing and electrical! I can put a window unit in for the a/c....but thats all I have figure out! So I still have lots of research to do! But if I ever get a piece of land...I could finally have my shoe box to live in that I own! :D man that would be amazing....to just own something!

I am not just a brainstormer...I also am getting a second and maybe a third job to try and make and save more money! I am not eating out now except MAYBE on Sundays after church. I have a budget sheet and once I have a steady income amount I can really start to put a dent in my debt! Any tips?:)
