Then came the construction of the ladder and welding on the tank stand proper

Completed welding works but just before that, the rain came heavily

Then comes the welding

Here are pictures of how we did the job. First we raised up the channels and started the welding properly

I delivered again. This time for nairalanders.

First was a church gate at ogbunka which I constructed and I had to remove the old gate and install the new one.

Then at okigwe, I did a tank stand for Dennis3D.

Thank y'all for the opportunities and let's keep it coming

Dennis3D:
We are also done with the water tank stand for the project now.

Completed by Michlins

thank you very much for the opportunity once again. It was a nice working experience with you

Ooni said something about this place called Ijebu igbo

That must be a typo, do you mean to say 70k? Cos 7k fuel will amount to nothing

a heavy one. I meant to say 6-8 hours. From 8pm to 4am

A decent complete off grid solar system will set you back 10-15M. The initial cost is the issue. This set up cost makes it not fit for purpose, not cost effective. There is no savings to be had. At 10M, the unit cost per kilo watt is very prohibitive. It may take you 14 years to match a genset user who spends 55k a month on petrol.

So, ideally, a hybrid system is by far cheaper by a country mile than complete off grid solar. Spend about 2M on a solar set up and get a 7.5kva generator for about 500k. That's a total of 2.5M. Have a monthly budget of 50k on petrol for the genset.

Run the solar by day, run genset by night. The numbers add up for an average family home.

most 7.5kva generator will take 7k fuel for 24hrs daily. Now you will have to add the cost of the noise, the cost of the maintenance and the best part of it, the generator even with best servicing history can decide one night not to start. You will have to wait until the next day to get a mechanic.

Start your journey with the available 2ml and keep increasing the batteries and panels as days go by. You will get off the grid in no time

I don't have solar (yet) I cannot use 5ml on generator at all. I will rather use it to set up solar and budget a six months upgrade until I get what I want.

Last year,a friend of mine went off grid in Enugu. Like completely for a little over 4ml. It was a DIY project

Whoever that wrote this needs to go back to school

Omo I have never read something like this in my life!

the fact that some countries are going for clean energy which solar is championing, someone is here displaying this level of ignorance

Imagine how proud he is.

dangoteinlaw:
Nigerians can be funny sha, so just coz i said my truth from my observation that solar is a huge scam unless you want to use only light bulbs or a weak fan that can’t blow a 10 square meters room they are now coming to my WhatsApp to attack me. You install a solar setup with over 4m and still you can’t use washing machine, can’t power an ordinary 1hp ac, can’t even use a water pumping machine and can’t even power a fridge is that not a waste of funds? What else do i need electricity for if i can’t power a pumping machine, water is my primary need for electricity before i start talking of refrigerator then AC, charging my phone is the last thing i will want to install a solar inverter for.

So those of you coming to my WhatsApp to bomb me with threats coz am spoiling your business, stop wasting your time abeg. These solar guys are cashing out fast because they will give a false hope that your electricity problems are solved only for you to finally done with the installation and they start giving you rules and regulations on how Samsung ac is not good for solar but panasonic ACs are good. I have had clients who spent millions on that and later regretted it. Lol

I don't know you sha but one thing I know is that you're wallowing in deep ignorance. That's not bad but the fact that you choose not to educate yourself with the available information that abounds the internet is the huge problem.

Ever heard of the Gigafactory? It's a whole industrial complex powered by just solar. I know at least three people are completely off-grid and they power every single item in their house with solar.

What you need is the right information about solar. Problem is that lots of people meets a solar vendor and asks for five panels and two batteries and then pay. Tomorrow such a person will go about saying he spent so so millions and yet cannot enjoy solar. What you need to do is to get the total amount of power you consume in your home and then tailor your system according to your needs. This will cost a fortune but you can start the journey with few light bulbs and fan at night until you complete the setup.

Ever heard of the YouTuber Brownlee and Jerrrigeverything? These guys gave a total breakdown on how they did theirs. Even here on nairaland, there's a thread where people discuss their solar journey and everything they have done to go completely off the grid.

Stop embarrassing yourself in public

I have Tiger T30. Call me on 08036366184.

how much please

.

Completed the casting of the foundation today. It was a very good day with the weather being very favourable

Currently in okigwe imo state for this tank stand

Look at these railings

More photos

We arrived at the site very late yesterday and have started working on the base foundation.

The intention is to complete the casting of the foundation today and it has been all hands on deck something

Yes you deserve everything the happened to you and should be made an accomplice of a crime when he's prosecuted.

Selling your Facebook account was for what reason? You didn't know it was for a crime?

Glory be to God. I’ve roofed the building 387sqm Milano at the rate of 6200

congratulations sir. What you just did pass many people power for this economy

Thazard:


What if it carries one big one at the top and one big one at the middle?

the price difference is usually insignificant. Usually around ~50k

Reason is that it's same number of materials it will take except for the negligible part that would have carried the second side of the tank at the top

Thazard:


Wow that's a lot.

Please is it for double tanks or single?

double tanks and with 5 by 3 H channels

Thazard:



Please can you give me the quotation for a

1.) 24 feet tank stand built with 5 inches H - beam.

currently, the cost of the tank stand is 1.7ml

Thazard:



Thank you Sir.

Please how much is 12mm wrought iron rod.

Last time I checked for the price of the rod, they said it's not available in the market. What is currently available is 16mm, 14mm(₦7500), 10mm(₦3500)

The people who eat canned tomatoes will come here to castigate this fresh fruit

Dennis3D:
We are pleased to announce that we have contracted the tank stand of this project to Michlins

He will be doing a 9000L - 12000L Tank Stand for this project.

thank you for the opportunity. We will be on ground between Tuesday or Wednesday.

About the security issues, I suggest you keep workers sleeping on site. This way, you have them sleeping and waking up in site and there will be no issue of restriction of their movement

Dennis3D:


After a long time. We will be meeting on site soon.
Welcome on board as I look forward to your good works

thank you sir for the opportunity

Everything he said about the match was true. The atmosphere was lovely

interrupted by what and who

Thormentor:
Over 25,000 people attended 20,000 capital Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium Enugu today in the midst of Propaganda about insecurity in South Eastern

This is the Oriental Derby between Rangers intl Vs. Enyimba of Aba!

Meanwhile,who come win

Badgers14:


Very spectacular house this one.

I am sure it is the talk of the town.

more like talk of the estate.

Bamss1:
Someone was trying to justify that preparation for the party has long been in motion before the Wigwe's demise and lots if money was already spent.
But why invite flavor? As a senior pastor why flavor? Wetin do Dunsin, frank, tope alabi Or even Sunny Ade?
It was just a show of gross insensitivity

what's wrong with flavour? What's your grudge with the musician. That was a birthday party and not some evangelical meeting


The church just used and dumped him. Expect other pastors to become less dedicated
