I would like to ask for your support in this project, unfortunately no dimensional references can be found, may I ask you if you have any material about it that you can send me?<br /><br />Looking forward to your kind reply, I remain at your complete disposal.<br /><br />P.s. my contacts: <br />jimenez.sara3112@gmail.com<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />SaraSarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15493211417207460456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-744642928273383316.post-8108560813766899962021-11-17T08:04:38.110-08:002021-11-17T08:04:38.110-08:00Hi Kristian, My name is Dell Jones and I was the ...Hi Kristian, My name is Dell Jones and I was the person that did the design, supply of lighting/ refrigeration and installation of the solar systems for Bob's home. I remember making those trips out to the Cape and working with Bob on the solar electric and hot water systems. Dragging the steel case batteries from the dock to the house in the sand was indeed a heavy lift. I still live in Estero, FL and now work on large utility scale solar projects and occasionally small systems for friends and family. I am going to try to look through some old photos to see if I can find some from those days. Interesting to see how the home has garnered so much attention sadly for how it succumb to the changing beach line and not the sturdy off grid home it could have been. contact: solar@me.comsolardellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17874627141158839744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-744642928273383316.post-83919482685906066882021-09-03T17:14:49.343-07:002021-09-03T17:14:49.343-07:00Hello Kristian,

My name is Nikita Tanya, from Russian and I’m a lovely mother of 3 kids I lost my funds on trying to get a loan it was so hard for me and my children, I went online to seek for a loan assistance all hope was lost until one faithful day when I met this friend of mine who recently secured a loan from Le_Meridian Funding Service She introduced me to this honest loan company who helped me get a loan in within 5 working days, I will forever be grateful to Mr Benjamin, for helping me get back on feet again. You can contact Mr Benjamin via email: lfdsloans@outlook.com lfdsloans@lemeridianfds.com, they do not know I’m doing this for them, but i just have to do it because a lot of people are out there who are in need of a loan assistance please come to this company and be saved.WhatsApp:(+1 989-394-3740)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-744642928273383316.post-18592161370064489542019-02-07T08:25:06.732-08:002019-02-07T08:25:06.732-08:00Hello Kristian
