  • In this video I show how I built an outhouse and a compost toilet (with urine diverter) for my off-grid guest cabin by using reclaimed materials and sustainable building methods like burnt wood. I also show and talk about how the toilet works in terms of composting the manure.

    I noticed a fence, do you have it all around your property ? Have you always been multi skilled or you developed the skills while living there ? Love your vlogs and great job with the rest room.

      I will build out the fence later this yearso it will be all around yes👌And thanks - I have always had broad interests, but the practical skills really took off when I started living like this. And thanks, really appreciate it!!😊

    Nice. The toilet seat could be a bit closer to the edge? It seems quite further in the back. Might not be too comfortable for short legged people 😅

    Mht. kompostbeholderen til nr 2-affaldet, er det en særlig beholder, eller kunne det også være en alm. kompost man bygger selv?

      I er bestemt ikke glemt - og jeg er meget glad for at du stadig følger med! Men det er fordi, jeg ikke lige kan finde ud af, hvordan jeg får det slået til. Måske man ikke kan, og så må jeg finde ud af at skrive dem ind manuelt. Det er nok lige en aftens ekstra arbejde oven i en forvejen tidskrævende produktion, men det er jo ikke umuligt (da folk også efterspørger engelske. Undertekster)! Jeg vil helt sikkert gøre, hvad jeg kan😊

      @@ErnestoSun Thanks for the advice! And it sounds like a good solution. But unfortunately we cannot legally dig a hole in the ground because of the risk of polluting ground water. And I really am in no contact with the stuff in the bucket when I empty it. It’s really pretty easy👌
