Building a Beautiful Log Sauna (Start to Finish)

  • I show you how to build a complete sauna from start to finish using a metal culvert.
    The sauna is covered with dead harvested cedar with the frame formed by a metal culvert. The ends are sided with ash wood harvested from a tree nearby cut to 1/2 inch thickness on a portable sawmill. Insulation is off cast, so bought for cheap, and the studs are from discarded pallet wood. Subscribe for part 2 where we work on the inside of the sauna.

    "Self-Reliance" is an 1841 essay written by American transcendentalist philosopher and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson. It contains the most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes: the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his own instincts and ideas. This channel will approach self reliance from a modern perspective. and will focus on various build projects using modern amenities, and tools to build a completely self reliant lifestyle.

    It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.

    The whole time you’re explaining the technical details I’m going “huh”. I was definitely at the back of the class and cried through math class! But!
    I enjoyed every minute of your efforts. Have you thought of using your “village” as a B & B, I’m sure a night in the cube then sauna, all the things you’ve suggested would find a market. What a super place for your adorable girl to grow up in. 🥰🇨🇦

  • @kingrafa3938

  • @retiredyeti5555
    @retiredyeti5555 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Did not know that you had your own channel until I stumbled on this video during a rainy day search of TH-cam. Like how you used items that you found or were given to improve the build, especially the old boiler. That sauna is a beauty! Now I have to watch other vlogs of yours to catch up!
    I am a scavenger myself, of items that others throw to the curb, that I realize may have some use left in them, or that I can adapt to my own uses. Being retired and on a tight budget, necessitates that attitude. I absolutely hate seeing good wood thrown away - I have louvered folding doors on my basement workshop and my wife has laundry cabinets, and a sewing cabinet that I improvised from a discarded bathroom vanity, all found at the curb.

  • @c-lat-itsme9354
    @c-lat-itsme9354 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    This was an absolutely amazing build to watch come to life with items you've just picked up along the way. You truly are a genius with incredibly creative ideas. Thank you for sharing valuable lessons explaining tricks of the trade & demonstrating amazing wood working skills. Your commentary & interjecting episodes of having fun playing around in between the phases of this build only made it that much more enjoyable! I really hope you get good use out of your sauna & continue sharing your projects! Awesome job!

    Perfect time to watch this. Me and my partner just arrived at the lake cabin a moment ago. She went to the sauna to make fire and carry water and I'm making some bread with just butter and open fire roasted salmon. Relaxing evening after hard few weeks of moving (me moving from west coast of Finland to eastern border).

  • @crystalemeralddiamond9571

    This had me riveted to the big screen watching you build this and making it look like a piece of cake when it most certainly isn't (although it looks like it's dusted with icing sugar on the outside with all that snow!)
    Loved your video. An amazing project.

    Haha! The insulation as a sled was hilarious! This turned out amazing and we love your personality. Your videos are very informative but also very entertaining! We are building our own sauna for one of our glampsites and we might have to make the next one like this! Very cool- keep up the good work!

  • @Boslandschap1
    @Boslandschap1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    It looks like an amazing build and (potentially) a very comfortable sauna, much respect.
    About getting the temperature higher: as far as I can see, the door has a large total surface of single pane glass. You may gain quite some insulation by installing a (large) glass pane in front of it.

    my grandpa started a steam and sauna business in Colorado, AAA Steam & Sauna. it is still in business today, as far as i understand you must use specific rocks, ones that don't contain moisture because if they do they will have a potential to explode when heated. just my two cents, love the videos!!!

    That is a great looking Sauna.
    The stove might be a bit underpowered for the size, optimally you'd want heat in the 180F-210F area, and the rocks shouldn't lose heat when you throw water on them - it should flash evaporate.
    Hyviä löylyjä! - have a good time throwing water on the sauna!
