FULL BUILD I built a DIY WOODFIRED BATH with an old rainwater tank
มุมมอง 155K14 วันที่ผ่านมา
After a rollercoaster of a week last week I thought I deserved to treat myself and make the project I've been dreaming of since I moved off grid! I built a DIY woodfired bathtub using an old rainwater tank and some recycled pallets. The whole project was very simple and cheap because I just used materials I already had laying around the homestead! This is one of my favourite builds ever and I c...

The vine thing at 16 minutes is a type of Drosera (aka Sundew) which is a little carnivorous plant. 👍
Thank you. !!
Beautiful as you said. You have done a job you can be very proud of.
Thank you so much ☺️
YOU GO GIRL DRAGGING THAT BIN FULL OF WATER HELL YEAH
😂 that was a mission
Looking better and better. I had to laugh at all of the "sticks" holding up the ceiling boards. Slowly getting caught up to your current videos.
😂😂yep I traumatised poor jango with those she’s scared of the caravan now and that things fall from the sky when we are in it 🤦♀️
Goals!!!!
🙌🙌🙏
G'day. TH-cam recommended one of your earlier videos. Best recommendation ever. Instant sub and have spent my Saturday arvo/evening binge watching your entire journey. Wow just wow. Very entertaining,informative and inspirational. Such a natural in front of the camera. Looking forward to your next uploads. Cheers 😊
Hey! Wow thank you so much for such lovely compliments, it’s still so early in my journey so I have lots to learn but it’s so nice to know you’re enjoying the videos! Can’t wait to share the rest of the journey with you ☺️🙏
U r so smart and a smoking hot angle ❤❤
At first, I was concerned when I thought you’d be using the fall protection harness solo - I was sooo pleased to hear that you have someone near on standby when up there. Well done!! Intelligent, beautiful, and an inspiration. You got me finishing some of my old DIY projects. Love your channel and your determination 🙏❤️ Keep it up! You can do anything you put your mind to! 🇨🇦
Always safety first! Thank you so much it’s been such a fun journey so far and I’ve learnt so much already I can’t wait to see what the rest of the build has for me 😍🙏
You rock girl. It'd been fun watching it all go down. 🤘
Thank you for sharing the journey with me! ☺️🙌
You are doing very well on Marketplace. So much free and cheap stuff. And as you said, it does looke "pretty damn good".
Yess I love getting deals on marketplace ! Thank you I still love it 😍
Looking great, exercise is becoming you.
😂 yep I argue I’m having too much!
This episode cracked me up being as I cut trees for a living. really glad to have found your channel, keep up the tenacious work, can I donate you a pair of my old chaps, I'd hate to see any mishaps
Aussie BadAss, why even take the steel off?
Thank you! In Aus you need to remove all form work to pass inspection 🙌
Necessity is the mother of invention -- Your bend tree is ingenious and so econcomical. My wife said, "She has big and beautiful eyes"
Thank you to both you and your wife ☺️🙏
Your brill keep it up doing amazing job ❤
Thank you so much ☺️❤️
👌👍
☺️🙏
Beautiful property and area , I can see why you chose it. hahaha you have your Phd in grinding for sure. Working in the dirt is a good relaxing break from the containers , and you have a great helper , and two good supervisors to bounce ideas off of.
Thank you it is ! Haha that’s for sure! Definitely over the grinding at this stage! Best helpers in the world I’m very lucky 😍
Go Go Baby Doll ❤😂❤
You have got to be the hardest working homesteading woman on the internet. You tough it on through each job and are on the lookout for easier ways..........the jack hammer etc.
Thank you so much, I’m picking it up as I go along! ☺️🙏
Omg girl you are a hard working woman well done you deserve a medal 🥇 happy memories will be made on you’re property ❤❤❤❤❤x
Thank you so very much! And you’re definitely right they will be 🥰🙏
I used "pump jacks" vs. Baker scaffold for outside, bc they're so versatile, and with your cat like balance you shouldn't have issue with some movement. Inside, i always built scaffold or built sawhorse's and used them as scaffold base ( very sturdy base )... Those Grass tree's are the coolest, super old, and they sap balls are just awesome..looking forward to more videos :)
Great ideas! Thank you so much ! The grass trees really are incredible hey , so old and so many uses 😍
Jaz what you are achieving is truly amazing and inspiring ❤️
Thank you so very much 🥰
❤ You are one Bad Azz Woman. Hey from South Texas 👏
G’day Jasmin, Haha!!! So true Mouse
😂 yep definitely some new gains
I’m looking for a great tradie , one that smiles just like you Are you available ASAP START
😂😂 I’m in the middle of a house build at the moment maybe after that! 🙌
Love you ❤😊
Seriously still blown away by you hefting 20kg bags of materials and that jackhammer that’s bigger than you 🤣 Who needs a Gym when you have foundations to dig in Clay soil 💪🏻
😂😂 actually hey! They weight almost half of me ! Definitely a good work out!
Amen!😄
Yess 😂🙌🙌
Oxy acetylene torch or plasma cutter
love your work you rock
Thank you so much! ☺️
TH-cam deleted my comment so it must be true. Builders lobby so gov doesn't provide affordable housing as that would be competing with the builders. This means they are all actively causing HOMELESSNESS
Reebaaah
your awesome girl,saw you cut that log in half for a fence post,mate never let your chain hit the dirt.quickest way to make it blunt
That chainsaw was annoying me lol. Good job:)
😂 me too I got a new one!
you go girl :D
Thank you 🙌
Thank goodness for "do it yourself" and double checking the work. You really dodged a bullet on that one.
I know! Thank you! 🙏
Creative thinking....again
Thank you so much ☺️
I am the Safety Director for a metal fabrication business. We use Metabo cutting discs for our metal cutting that is not done with an industrial nachine. They are made for the actual Metabo tool but available in 4" & 6" for a 4" or 6" grinder . The grinder just runs at a lower RPM. If you do use them, don't let them get wet. If they get wet, throw them away. Always use safety glasses and a face shield when using them. Also the leather apron you have is a great help.
Thank you so much for the advice 🙏🙏☺️
