In this episode, Mark joins our team in Senegal. The goal is to solve the challenge of transporting our heavy machinery and tools across rural areas of Senegal, and providing accommodation to our team working at these remotes sites.
Our concept, code-named "The Rolling Circus", is to turn a standard 20-foot shipping container into a 7-room apartment on wheels, capable of dragging our telescopic loader, tool room, and toilet on a trailer behind it, which should be capable of getting us out of the inevitable trouble that comes with off-road driving between remote villages.
