- In this video I'm showing you how I built my outdoor Sauna. It's a simple build using timber beams and steel rods. A glass door provides daylight and a Harvia M3 stove cosy heat. Overall, it took me 2 weekends to finish. Enjoy!

This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things th-cam.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

It's actually very interesting to see such a raw, unprofessional, yet functionable and smile-giving building built by hands with rolex on. Well done man 👍
best comment ever…about all the internet makers!!! In 1 year it’s junk, unisolated, unseald int. Wood, hidro upstairs., the foundation is non existent…but i think with 2mil views you cover expenses!
The problem is for normal people who will try this and waste some money…bit i think it’s a good lesson ;)
I don’t wanna throw negative energy here, but the comment summs it all!!!
@@cherokee69 I have seen so many saunas home made standing outside that are not used daily who dont have all this damage you talk about.
@@cherokee69 you most definitely brought the negative energy you so desperately couldn't help but bring, maybe it's within you?
@@cherokee69 you’re a narc
Rolex with a quartz movement probably.
When I saw the phone as a spirit level, I knew I had to carry on watching 😂
I’ve seen guys make saunas like they were gonna launch them into space; installing thermofoil behind every cedar panel, caulking every hole/crack...have they ever been in a sauna before? It’s hot if you have a good heat source. I love how this guy just showed us what you need for a sauna - the basics, which didn’t cost $12,000, I’m sure 👌.
Good job, sir!
check the description, dude said it cost 54k
@@vanillaice1335sure
@@vanillaice1335 LOL. The 54k was 'VIEWS' at that time.
They always forgot sauna was a traditional space in a nordic family home! It doesn't need to be fancy
Ive grown to appreciate little holes, gaps in my walls, its so damn hot !
The neighbors are probably like lookout the naked guy is hanging out his disco shack again
Who gaf
😂😂😂😂
😂
Your comment just makes me want to build this in my backyard even more!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
i love how zero fucks were given , he broke every rule you could but at the end of the day he has his own sauna in his back yard , brilliant man A++++
Just note. Be careful when choosing a type of wood to build your sauna with. Some wood produces mold with hot and cold cycles and if there is sap in the wood it may boil out and create toxic fumes. I like your build. Just make sure everyone does a bit of homework before you make your own
GOT TO USE CEDAR RIGHT?
Lol
Cedar is one of the good ones. Clear wood. No knots or sap.
Is it a good idea to glue the wood together? Is there not a risk that the glue emits toxic fumes when it gets warm? Thanks a
@@pizzacup2012 You can use glue in certain parts to reinforce the structure (however do not in any way relly on glue to hold it together by itself) , and depending on the type and brand of glue it may stand strong and not emmit any fumes when put in contact with heat(the heat of the sauna might also not be high enough to produce a reaction). This isn't an awful build, but there are many things that could be added to make it nicer, and more durable
Its a great feeling when you get to lay back and enjoy what you worked so hard to build.
Until your neighbors start asking for money every year or else they’ll take it.
@@-John-Doe- lol...dang hoa
@Skip Daulton lol
Now imagine seeing your hard work burn to the ground.
That is the weirdest wall assembly I have ever seen. Cool though. I also enjoyed the "seizure setting" on the LEDs ;)
So true, thats a weird way of building a wall.
@@FreeformRock The fact that he don't need panels on either of the sides makes it genius.
It’s genius really. By not having panels every slat can move freely when they go from hot to cold and vice Versa
Very nice build, just those lights..
At least he used expensive boards with gaps instead of siding. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tools: 300$
Material: 600$
Making your neighbors watch you walk across your lawn in a towel every night at 7pm: priceless
I love how he doesn't smother us with chatter. He just shows us his work. Refreshing. Great outcome.
This is the reason why I started yt 10 years ago. I was annoyed by the 90% talking and 10% showing the product or how it is done.
Reminds me of a popsicle stick house I built in 1st grade.
Oh my!! I’m just up to the part where he uses the drill over and over again to make a circle hole for the chimney!! Awesome. This is very entertaining. Mission accomplished.
Disco lights. Check.
I’m sending this guy a jigsaw for his future hole making. I’m looking forward to future builds.
Or maybe a hole saw for his drill.
It's called drill stitching. It's a good method if you don't have a hole saw or jigsaw.
Just make sure to use some glue which doesn’t produce toxic fumes when heated up. Awesome work!
Cured wood glue will never produce any fumes
Is glue essential?
Doesn't the wood expand?
Very Good point, Im not sure I'd thought of that!
@@ant7936 Dried wood compress, wet wood expand.
Don't all glues off-gas some form of formaldehyde or other toxins?
She ain't the prettiest......but she loyal. Amazing outcome with minimal tools!! Great job!
Hahaha
Please don’t follow this tutorial. It’s irresponsible to even publish this and allow people to waste their money and possible harm their health. So many issues I can’t even touch in the small details. No insulation, Toxic glue, Knotty wood, the roof will leak, the wood will rot, and worst of all.. yeezy sneakers??
@@matthewkeyes4639 I thought about the glue. I am no expert on the wood. this was not budget tho. all the tools and doors, oven, it all adds up but he wore rolexes so can afford. those not yeezy tho
@@matthewkeyes4639 why does it need insulation? 2 inch thick walls and roof will retain enough heat while in use, surely?
@@matthewkeyes4639you're right in that he didn't use the best materials for the job, but we dont know... maybe this was a cheap case study in "can I build a sauna" before he went out and spent thousands and thousands of dollars on 4x4 red cedar posts. as for the structure... this exact building method is used by Finnish sauna builders. there is no need for insulation when you are using solid walls like this, and even most cedar barrel saunas which use T&G panel don't have insulation or vapour barrier ; A sauna is only meant to be hot while you are in it. the structure itself doesnt need to retain heat, only the rocks in the stove. the only disadvantage to using knotty wood is that it heats up unevenly and its uncomfortable to touch. a knot on the wall isn't a big deal... a knot on the bench will hurt. . the wood may or may not rot. there is a Japanese technique called Shou Sugi Ban which he did (scorching the wood) which serves as a form of weatherproofing. only thing I would do differently is not use glue. the tension from the threaded rod is enough to compress the beams.
I agree with you that this may not be the best LONG TERM application, but it works. as with anything, do your own research. that is common sense.
definitely you can see him doing things where you say wow i would not do that that way, but while he is doing it you can also tell he has definitely found a way that works, you can also tell that whatever he did, he is able to make use of his invention every day. at the end of the day i have to say bravo
Its fine, for me is his wrong choice of regular 2x4 thats a no no but whatever
@@josim7598 what would you suggest, if not 2×4 s
Very different then how I imagined it. Although its probably close to how a kit sauna would go together. Using the boards like that gave him a structure with ready to finish walls inside and out.
I am going to build a sauna up in the mountains by an old shepherd's hut that I am renovating. My view is use what you've got (or can afford) and make the best of it. I like your use of drill and axe to cut a hole for the stove pipe! Frankly, I've gotten some very useful ideas from your video, so thank you. Hope it is serving you well!
Put a cap on that smokestack!!
Without one even a light breeze could cause a backdraft and blow smoke and carbon monoxide down into the sauna! Wouldn't take long to reach a fatal level in such a small, tightly sealed space!
Plus you want to keep the rain out.
Rain yes, wind though will create a venturi effect so it will actually pull the smoke out even more.
All these whiners. The dude made it just fine. It’s his not yours. Good for him!
Well, it is his. And it is good for him. But that doesn't make it good. What's wrong with admitting that there is a lot to improve on. You get better step by step if you are critical with your work. And maybe, he is just not good in handcrafting. What's wrong with that? Nobody can everything. I am not that good in english. I am happy with this text. But that doesn't mean it's lyrical.
@@Sqwan2 The problem is that it's necessarily not supposed to be a state of the art sauna but enjoy the content which you pay absolutely nothing for. As if the maker of this sauna set out to make the best fucking sauna there is. Most likely no, and who cares? Except of course the ones who have this overwhelming urge to tell others what to do and pretending it's not done to bring out their sense of superiority over an arbitrary matter.
@Max Toledo Yes, I agree. I didn't really dispute that nor did I criticize it.
@@juho5282 When you are showing a video of how you made something on TH-cam, you can assume others will look it up as a guide to follow. He built his walls with allthread... I love the video, and love how he illustrates that you can get away with a super simple structure... but since this is the first thing I saw on Google after looking up how to make your own sauna, it's a good thing people mention in comments that those looking to build their own should look for instructions elsewhere. Cool video, don't do what he did, it's a poorly built structure. TBH I'm impressed a guy who uses his phone as a level and a drill bit as a jigsaw pulled this off, I genuinely enjoyed it, but the critical comments serve as a disclaimer IMHO.
@@smokalotapotamas Of course someone might take inspiration here which isn't probably the most sound idea in existence but one doesn't really have to be a genius to realize that this isn't an architectural marvel. My problem is mainly people who complain over bibs and bobs but fail to give appreciation to the content they're being presented without any cost.
I'm pretty sure about 90% of the people who are complaining have never been or built a sauna.... looks freaking awesome dude.
The real diy video without tools that nobody has!!
Great great great!
Lucky Strike
So good so far, little thing it’s really dangerous.
Great idea. Get the boys round for a bbq, game of cards and that, swig a few beers. Then after just you and the boys in the sauna. Absolutely great.
No co ed?
And that where the real fun begins amiright? 😘
YOU SIR, ARE A TRUE "BOSS". Im amazed of your craftsmanship and minimal tools used to make your sauna. GREAT JOB!! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
@sierraoscardelta correct 👍🏽
Society really is in the pits when you call this craftsmanship
Thoroughly impressed, a man after my own dry heat heart.
This guy might not be a professional construction worker but at least he tries and got something decent out of it. Trial and error is the best teacher anyway.
I’ve been a tradesman for almost 15 years now, I’m not exactly a wise owl yet and I’m young enough to embrace new methods and techniques. I know this is DIY.........but, there are so many things wrong with this build that I don’t know where to start. Fair play for having a go, but in a nutshell, if your gonna put the time and effort into build something then you want it to last. That’s all I’m saying cos I ain’t into slagging off perfect strangers and I hope you do get many years of enjoyment from this!
Id like to know whats wrong, seems like a quick cheap practical build. Shopping around for ideas myself
Really like how it looks! I love the light party at the end.
First of all, big thanks to all of you who provided input on my DIY Sauna project! Even the bad comments motivated me to create something even better! Based on your feedback I updated the build. I tried to address all your main concerns on the project like fire hazards, waterproofness of the roof, rough interior and dangers of seizure due to the LED lighting system :-) Check it out and stay safe! th-cam.com/video/TGl7yxg15s8/w-d-xo.html Some of you were interested in how much temperature this build reaches and how long it takes to heat up. So I made another video on my Sauna routine th-cam.com/video/LHCb9adDbdw/w-d-xo.html
Super simple design and a smart use of new materials. Well done!
Okay I noticed that Rolex...
At least you got a Finnish "kiuas" . Props for that :)
Finally a simple and cheap way of building a sauna.
If I have to spend a few thousand on a sauna build I can buy one already build for that much.
I enjoyed the fact that he is wearing flip flops for some of the build. Other than that, this is very impressive. Also, to all those that critique this, the guy build it on a budget, using like 4 tools, plus his phone.
Yeah that's right, and he has a sauna now... while all these critics are sitting around too afraid to try to build a sandwich for fear of using the wrong setting on their toasters.
@@IVespidI Look, if you put a video on youtube of you building a sauna then you should be able to handle some criticism. The issue isn't that his build isnt beautiful but the way he built it is dangerous (no cap on the smokestack and no support for the bench where he is sitting on) and also this hut will break in a few years because he didnt cover the roof all the way so water will leak into it and mold will start to grow.
My issue is simply that if he invested like 10% more time and thought it out a little better, this build could have been 100% better.
And yes, if I had the space to build something like this, I would also build something like that and just think it through a little more
@@Ergydion yeah, those are good points. I still think it's cool that he did it and he showed off some interesting solutions for getting it done fast and cheap.
I'm pretty sure that "DIY," in this case, means nobody else would do it that way.
what would we the internet be without people like you
Reinhardt Sillinga no he’s right. This was incredibly different way to achieve what he was trying to achieve. Can’t fault someone for getting after it though.
The thing is beutiful and solid wood.
i just dont get the point of extremely long threaded rods that he tighten after the wood glue is dried like wtf is wrong with corrosion resistant deck screws and the foundation is lacking
I don't think that wood is much of an insulator, and without a vapor barrier it's gonna crack like a motherfucker. I'd like to see it after about a hundred uses just to see how it worked out.
Almost perfect , only that I'd put a fence around the oven to protect the people.
Interesting video.
Come on mate can't put cotton buds on everything to stop the stupid getting injured
Watching this just takes my aches and pains away. Next project at my farm house.
a novel approach to the build . love it
Some really unnecessary comments, no one is just born with the knowledge to do everything correctly. If something is dangerous to him by all means let him know but come on, some of these commenters are beyond condescending.
How is this structure holding up?
Now this is how you make a sauna. Very authentic approach.
When he didn't add support under the bench and partial covered the roof I watched to see what else could go wrong.
Lol! This is so crazy
You know he’s not banging any fat chicks in there...
Super easy to add a leg in the middle to make it feel more solid, but even as it is it would likely only flex, not break, with the weight of 2-3 people sitting on it.
I stopped taking any notes of this dude as soon as he used his iPhone for a level
Boards that were glues together for no reason... going to shrink. Chimney, going to collect water. Washers and nuts, going to sink in the endgrain of the wood. Stick on lights... the glie is going to melt and they will fall off over time. Oh the list gots on.
This is one of the coolest projects I've seen in a long time...Thanks
oh how lovely! I love that wood burning stove. And quite interesting the way you cut the hole for that pipe! Great job
Hahaha he drilled many holes in order to drill s hole lol I was amazed
The lighting must really help with meditation 😂
Great vid, thanks for sharing!
Nice vid, great to see such a well put together vid without needless verbal explination. I'm gonna have a crack at building something similar in my garden this summer. What was the matting you used for insulation? And did you scorch the wood on the inside and out?
It’s like a party in there. I am definitely building me one . Great video 👍🏻
Eating an orange in a sauna ..best thing ever!
gamer sauna with all RGB, pretty cool
Love it! 👍🏻 No talking. Straight to the point. Cool ass sauna too
I like this build. Regards from Finland, Risto
Finland, the capital of saunas
I had watched the Russian sauna video and saw the comments from people from Finland. I checked the comments looking for your approval and I am glad because this is something I can do and afford!!
this project i am seriously thinking about recreating...great video...
If so i Will give you a little tip make a Wooden skeleton so than you can use insulation and remember air vents
Just some helpful advice for the best result from a professionel Carpenter and sauna master
@@rasmushansen2390 How many air vents and what place? Thanks in advance!
This is a good addition for an air bnb instead of a hot tub
You have inspired me to do the same! Thank you for your hard work, and video.
Bro started in summer and finished in winter. Right on time!
Seasons have come and gone while you were building it :)
Fire needs oxygen, you are a gambler with your life !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Interesting. But I can do without the disco lights.
totally agree with you on that
Its a slavic thing.
Lol
@@igormrz88 Is it slavic thing to have disco lights or not having them?
@@eliasrimpela4276 its a slavic thing to have them lol.
Maybe I’m just overthinking building in general. I hate this build. However, I am very glad you did exactly what you wanted and I’m happy it has served your purpose. I subscribed
I love it and I've been wanting a sauna forever I already have a building attached to the house and there's a firewall in between so I'm thinking about converting that. You did an amazing job
This is the OKist sauna I have ever seen and I love it.
насмотрелся роликов на ютуб и стал строителем. Просто жесть что получилось.
@MiSo да и помоему использовал аналог клея ПВП))) Пва на водной основе, который боится воды, и отслаивается) гениально)
Проходка стены вообще доставляет !
Am I the only one that realises he's taking the piss with this build. Classic video and great slap it together attitude.
So cool to have your own Sauna in your backyard!
I used to have a sauna, I miss it. That's why I'm watching this video.
What was the overall cost of this project man thinking of doing one myself!
Like this guy, about $52.00
Love this fancy picnic table construction! Sick and tired stupid plug it in the wall InfraRed, Near InfraRed or Far Infrared crap or the fine wood work, or the ultimate 20A dedicated circuit trash.. Going Hot rock w/50A 220V service.. I can make tongue and groove from Home Depot framing lumber. If I can find it I much prefer Fir.. probably do 2x6.. maybe 2x8 I'll put up 4x4 for the corners, with a lean to roof. On the other side of the wall is that Juicy big powah service for the kitchen oven. The 9KW Vevor hot rock heater is on the way.. I'm thinking a single Long bench that I can lie down on. so like footprint will be 7' x 3.5' or there abouts. When in doubt go 220V.. that means it works.
I like the original design, well done... how is it holding up and what issues have you had?
And btw chain drilling is a perfectly valid technique if you lack the proper tool.
It's good. I'll do a follow up in a few months. I had to close the gaps on the floor. Maybe I'll do more mods.
That bench will work great at holding up my son who weighs 80lbs!
A guy uses his phone for a level what else can go wrong ...
I like this video and his passion to build something with his own hands but this build is shit, let's be honest.
My favorite party is the all thread holding everything “square “!! 😂 shit is an understatement! Poor guy just built the thing that’s gonna kill him!
Come on guys. He mate just what you talk about.
Surely better use of the phone than using it to make such a comment!
@@xainisheikh wonder how many people with agree with your thought
Amazing!!!! sos un genio gracias por compartir toda esta info saludos desde Mar del Plata Argentina
First throw that timer away
Second thing your sauna has to be over 75°c
Harvia is good brand and i love your stuff
"PERKELE" 😅
Moro oon samaa mieltä ja meil on Narvi kiuas mut harvia ja misa on hyviä myös, ja noi hiton värivalot pois kans
Love this idea. I will safely borrow it and add my little touches without having to pay an arm and leg. Thank you.
For more ideas check also the update video :-)
Your wardrobe is very confusing, and I dig that about you
Since I can't use the sauna at the gym due to the nonsense antisocial distancing rules, I'm considering building one in my garage. I really miss getting a good sweat going in the sauna and being able to warm up when it's cold outside. I'm thinking about using an infrared heater, though. Wish I knew someone who has one in their sauna to try it out, so I can see how it compares to a traditional electric heater. Appreciate seeing your build.
Really good I enjoyed and of course you could make it more insulated that's just extra time on the video, the bones of the construction and idea are there...well done ps I want one
The bones are literally missing.....
Bien joué merci du partage. J'ai jamais vu de sablier en Finlande par contre, le sauna c'est autant qu'on veut tant qu'on supporte.
Damn! Making me want to make one now!!!
So inspiring !!!
I no what I'm building. Awesome my Brother.
Vilkkuvat valot saunassa?
Ai kauheaa kun ottaa silmiin moiset turhakkeet.
Luulin saavani epileptisen kohtauksen sitä katsellessani.
there it is from start to Finnish
Absolutely perfect. I want one. ❤️
Should have seen my face when I saw a man cut a whole with a drill and hammer it out with a hatchet 😂
Hole saw was my fav 🤙🥴
Yeah, that hole went down in style.
Fun fact for you. Stainless curiodes faster then anything in salt treated lumber. That’s why they made decking screws for all your salt treated outdoor framing.
Smart move to use y´r roofing burner to do the wood as well! I also put a Harvi M3 in my DIY sauna. that thing works wonders. I added insulation to mine, but with the heat that is generated I can see how this thing can get hot enough without insulation. I dropped a video about the build on my channel as well.
Link please? Thanks 🙏

Непонял, эту коробку строил целый год? А где предбанник, столик с лавочкой для друзей и пива? И стеклянная дверь на улицу, это что-то!Не прще было бы сделать каркасный вариант?! Да и похоже сквозняк в этой сауне полный, в плюс температура хоть подымается или на 0 держится?
Im a total novice when it comes to crafting, so im absolutely fascinated by what appeared to be finishing wood w flame instead of paint. I may end up wasting more time than i should researching it later :)
The Japanese calls it Shou Sugi Ban and it improves longevity outdoor.
Other guy is right. This is a method we use often out in the woods when access to fancy material is not available. It prevents mold, deterioration, and pests. It will improve the lifespan of the wood. Additionally it helps make a liquid proof seal.
The disco light.... I'm sold.
1:58 sounds like a fart 😂😂😂
Lmfao
Same
i had to check ,yes it does so great a very good one indeed
First I was like what the heck, but after all its the best low budget made sauna on youtube I think :)
I love how you're just casually rocking a submariner.
I would highly recommend to put a support bar in the middle of the seating area those screws won’t hold that much weight
Excuse me sir your drill is on the hammer setting LOL I can't watch anymore
Steve-O and fam no keep watching!!! All thread is keeping it square!!! 😂
Actually it’s a impact drill not hammer setting (which is for concrete )
So you’re right you shouldn’t watch anymore.
Stephen Schindler 0:53 the drill is on hammer
@@LewisOrchard it's the clutch setting...look at the numbers on the drill where it's set
impact drivers are far better than normal drills...
Pretty cool idea with the threaded rod

It looks like a toilet, holes and crevices are everywhere
That joint goin brazzy w the LED’s
Dude can afford a rolex but can’t afford a hole saw kit
Who said his Rolex is real ?
So a sauna is a shed with a woodstove. I like this
Прикольно! Главное чтобы самому нравилось. Ошибок масса, ну и пусть.
