The building team
Our main concern at this point was our lack of experience - I did an “Owner-builders course” at TAFE - a pre-requisite for council approval. This was mainly focused on bureaucratic concerns such as insurance, paperwork, certification, compliance with little mention of the practicalities of building a structure.
The universe intervened and connected us with Norman Coleman - an ex-builder who agreed to work with me on a trial project to see if we worked well together.
We enjoyed working together to create a set of stairs from the railway carriage to the building site and so the building team was assembled.
