We loved last week's colloboration with Inner Blocks so much we decided another tribe pair up would be equally fun! This fortnight we're hanging out with Build-It, a cool tribe that many of you will resonate with. Build-it are about empowering and strengthening DIY projects, how to tutorials and life hacks. They were set up to reward high quality DIY and 'how to' projects and you can earn 'build' tokens by using recommended tags such as #diy, #build-it, #how-to, #doityourself and #build. They even have a condensor - https://build-it.io/.

Natural Medicine often sees these tags alongside #naturalmedicine because many of our folk are equally into self sufficiency and resourcefulness, making their own rather than buying from a store. We've run challenges like this before where we've seen all kinds of 'make your own' projects such as making your own deodorant or clothes washing powder, and of course lots of yummy healthy food recipes!!

This challenge is a little different because we're going to ask you to 'make' your own project from scratch - something you have never made before but always wanted to. We want you to document it as a step by step 'how to' in an engaging and creative a way as possible.

Try to choose something challenging! We love Build-It's tag line: DO IT NOW! This could be a great opportunity to start that project you've been putting off for ages!

You must 'build' or 'make' something that relates to 'natural health' - this, of course, is very broad! Some ideas:

  • Build your own altar for meditative rituals
  • Build an outdoor fire bath for self-care
  • Make your own deodorant
  • Make your own apple cider vinegar or try pickling for the first time
  • Set up a self watering system for your permaculture garden
  • Make your own still for essential oils
  • Make a hydrosol out of your favourite herb
  • Try making your own vitamin pills
  • Make your own soap
  • Make your own colloidal silver
  • Make your own vegan cheese

This ones a HUGE one because we recognise we're asking you to do something quite BIG and CREATIVE!

  • We reserve the right to divide the winnings as we see fit - either one ultimate winner, or divided amongst a few, depending on the quality of the entries.

  • Week 1 entries will receive some bonus tokens.

  • The first TWENTY resteems will recieve .25 Steem each from Natural Medicine.

Oh no!!! I just published a post that would be PERFECT for this contest.
https://steempeak.com/@stortebeker/a-bamboo-bike-for-cryptos
Except, I failed to post it from the from the NaturalMedicine.io OR Build-It.io. Also I didn't use either tag as the first one. :-(
But now it's too late, I don't think there is anything I can do about it now. So maybe I can keep this as an honorary participation? I would be honored in any case.

You're right! I should go ahead and build something else. That's what I'll do! Not sure what... I might actually finish the bike, hahaha!

Well, even the updated finished bike post could be an entry! And @stortebeker, you should definitely check out the build-it tribe and token, it's pretty cool!

A recent post I just made could've qualified for this, should've read this post sooner. I could shift the tags around, but I posted it from the STEMgeeks site. Nice work though @riverflows, way to expand the community reach.

Hahaha, same story here! But no worries, I'm sure we both can find something else to build! What's the post you made anyway? Would love to see... as well as the one you'll actually submit in here.

When I first heard that this challenge was going to be a DIY I thought I would share the system we came up with to be able to run a sunroom/growroom opened up into our living room for four seasons in the cold north country.
But now I see it must be something new that you haven't done before.
Time to put on my thinking cap!

Oh what a cool contest!!! I think it's an excellent pair of tribes too!

I want to build a solar dehydrator. I've seen them before in photos, have written about and finally saw an excelently working prototype in Costa Rica (which told me it'll work in our humid summers).

I hope to make this challenge into my oportu ity to finally build one and be ready for the spring! Or a solar water heater.... hmmm so many things to build!

Thanks for the push
