Not where I live. All those charges for the use of their electricity here. I definitely do not have space to set up my own personal nuclear reactor on my patio. Not even sure I could scavenge enough free materials to build it, even if I found free designs/blueprints.

An uncle on my mother's side used to hike in the backwoods with a wheelbarrow and a pitchfork to get materials. On a good day, he'd have a nuke reactor done by dinner. I assumed it was free but who am I to know.

Phew! I hoped that had come off as snarky and fun. Hard to tell with text.

I'm fairly crafty but I may need some tips from that uncle of yours.
