About me

Charlie started by designing and making his own nests, after finding imported ones too costly and complicated. That led to the Terra nests, which combine plaster and sand for a naturalistic home, with magnetic connections for easy expansion.

The approach is simple: less is more, and test tube first. Let a young colony reach its first workers before it moves into a permanent home.
