Want to know how to create your own Pedal-Powered Washing Machine?
Do you have a machine you would like to run off your own power? Would you like to turn your old bike into something really useful? If so, then this is for you!
A one day course with Rob Ireson takes place on 8 March at The Hollies Centre, Enniskeane, Co. Cork. In this workshop you will learn how to harness untapped human energy, how bicycle machines have been developed and utilised in low energy communities from around the world, and how to personally build a generator that can actually run a washing machine!
Depending on available materials, you can learn to build your own machine to take away - such as a bicycle generator for running a 12v energy system, a bike powered washing machine, juicer, lawnmower, or even more creative projects.
The course costs â¬60 per person and more information is available at: www.theholliesonline.com/courses-2009/ <http://www.theholliesonline.com/courses-2009/>
