    In Sweden, such toilets are used in the summer cottage and are called "dry waste" (torrdass) together with dry ash or sawdust which must be dry, this starts the decomposition. You sprinkle a scoop of this every time you do number 2. The urine you get can be diluted with water and poured out at the plot boundary to keep wild boar away.

    My son and I recently spent a week in Big Bend. Prior to our adventure, we were given a tip for using our compost toilet. By placing a cup or two of livestock bedding pellets in the bottom of the bag; it helps absorb liquid and virtually omits any odor. The great part is the cost is pennies per use. Very inexpensive.

    • @BigDreamsTinyBudget
      @BigDreamsTinyBudget ปีที่แล้ว +24

    • @kenh5799

      There is nothing wrong with using conventional toilets that flush. We are not destroying this immense, beautiful, largely self-sustaining planet, by using flush toilets, cutting down trees,
      using gas grills or gas ovens, burning brush, using and/or driving combustion engine lawnmowers, cars, trucks, etc., relying on natural gas and coal-fired power plants, or anything that has been demonized for decades. It is a complete hoax (not to mention a huge money grab for green technology companies) that our reliance on fossil fuels has to end. For one thing,
      it will NEVER happen and CAN'T happen. So-called renewables are not really renewable. The only true renewable is trees. We can grow more trees, always, and they are beautiful and the irony is they thrive on carbon monoxide and provide much of our oxygen supply. Why is there not a big push to plant more trees?! Where there are trees, there are rainforests, remember that? Planting more trees would end most, if not all, of the air pollution that might exist. This is a provable, repeatable fact! As far as compost toilets, they are a huge labor-intensive hassle, extremely messy, and completely unnecessary. We have plenty of water on this planet. Don't forget, the Earth is covered by 75% WATER. Yes, it is mostly salt water but why not put tax dollars toward more desalinization equipment rather than bird & bat-murdering wind turbines and eagle-killing solar farms? That is so in-humane.

    I spent quite a few summers as a kid traveling around the US with my family, camping in a camper similar to yours. Some of the best family memories ever were on those camping/road trips. Thanks to my parents, and largely those camping trips, i can say I've been to 49 of the 50 States (Alaska remains on the bucket list). I guarantee your kids will look back fondly on these memories you're creating for them. Good for you!

    Good move buying a trailer. I started out camping as a Boy Scout, then the Army, then (1970) I bought a VW Camper Van and being stationed in Germany my wife and I traveled all over Europe. I even got out of the Army and stayed in Germany for six months. Upon returning to the states (Chicago area) and sold the VW and bought a new Class B van for $5,000.00 (1973). Had that for twenty years and gave it to my younger brother and he had it for 10 more years. Next we bought a used Pop-up camper when our two girls were 2 and 4 years old. Six years later we bought a 30 foot travel trailer (bunk house type) with a queen bed in front and four bunks in the back. We had that until the girls moved out of the house. We had the same problem with our ovens in two of our four camping vehicles/trailers. We added shoe bags to hold things like grill lighters, flash lights, string/rope, etc. Same thing in the Bathroom for toiletries, wash cloths, etc. We mostly used paper plates, paper bowls, etc, and burned them in the nightly fires. We camped all over the U.S. From Niagara Falls, to Yellowstone but mostly a state park in Michigan. Gun Lake state park. We rented pontoon boats, Skidoos, and fishing boats. You will never regret camping vacations. I spent 250 a year for insurance, 250 a year for storage, 250 a year in upkeep (batteries, tires, propane, and a complete set of dishes, pots and pans etc dedicated just for the trailer) 250 a year in upgrades. But once we had a it where it was ready to go in an hour or two of deciding to travel somewhere, we were on the road. We would buy groceries on the way. We just had to pack our clothes and we were off and running. So now I am 75, my wife has passed away and I about 100 photo albums of my travels. When I retired, my first project was organizing all the photo in albums by trip and then year. I will usually pull one out a week to look at to remember how much fun we had over the years. The girls still talk about all the things they learned camping with mom and dad. From cooking over a fire, roasting marshmallows. fishing, skiing, horseback riding, hiking, swimming, doing the dishes, cleaning the grill, setting up camp, and a whole lot more. Enjoy your time with the kids, they grow up too fast. Sorry this is so long.

    Spencer Mack, loving the longer videos! I watch a few other off grid type channels as well as a few in other genres and them like you guys are doing something that I see is becoming more sought after regardless of the content of one's channel... longer vids, 30-60 mins and not full of ads or sponsored crap! There is one nameless western off grid container channel similar to you guys. They also have great content , but between the ads and the sponored content added in, it's no longer enjoyable to watch! I consistently see more and more comments telling the channel owners and creators they want longer videos and less ads, sponsored crap and asking for money, followers, subs and added amazon wishlist links. The above channel, after their 4th or 5th year now they are still at 200K subs. You two hit 1 million in just 2 0r 3 years? Your channel and the dozen or so channels all have awesome content, not asking for money, subs, have tons of ads (like 1 every 3-5 mins), do the sponsored ads, products, services, etc, and you all have well over 1 million loyal followers! YAY!!!!
    IF YOU ARE A COMMERCIAL OR PRO PHOTOGRAPHER READING THIS, I would love to thank you for the fact that Spencer & Mackinzie and others cannot film for commercial use in State & National Parks becuase over pat decades, you all have abused "public" property while charging clients ungodly amounts while conducting "commercial" business and disturbing other users of the parks to the point where now you need a commercial photography permit to photography or film in our state and national parks. Even 20 years later, I still see you guys in photography groups try to buck the system, not get a $50 (+/-) permit, yet charge your clients, (often landscape or wedding photogs) thousand of dollars, and when you get caught with a ton of people, using multiple tripods, stobes, softboxes, etc, you all still want to whine complain and bitch. I have seen in recent year those who still try to buck the system get caught by the feds after bucking the system of getting a petty permit and now you had remove those photos and videos and pay hefty fines. It prettt easy to see you are engaging in "commercial" business and look at you content and seeState & National parks in the background. So thanks for ruining it for people like Spencer, Mackenzie and the rest of us!!!
    Mackenzie & Spencer, keep rocking and love you content!!!

We have seen and evidenced that we are killing our immune systems trying to live in super clean environments. I will pass along your idea to the trucking industry and for those ho do team driving. Lord forbide yor co-driver have to jam on the breaks and roll you out of bed which has happened many times. I'm 51, been in super great health most of my life and do civil highway construction. Never had any disease, no surgeries, and only have had a broken toe or finger a few times. While I'm all for child safety, we again see how kids today are such wussies! They need to toughen up.

    Building memories with your kiddos is something they will remember for a lifetime. We took our son camping when he was little and now that he has his family, they go camping. We have a IBEX 19MBH and really enjoy camping in the Texas State Parks. Have fun and safe travels.

    I just realized why I am completely hooked on your channel. You’re living the life I imagined living with my first husband and our two daughters, and I kinda think the lives they each always imagined living with their ex-husbands as well. Somehow, to see you living my dream is very touching and satisfying and healing even, as if a part of me is getting to live my dream, even if vicariously, at last. At the least, it’s so validating maybe? that this life, even if many are thwarted in living it, IS achievable. So… I cheer you along with the rest who follow you, and look forward to continuing my thorough enjoyment in what you share of your life ❤ Good RV choice! I’ve had some RV experience and so was having hysterics with the toilet scene! At least if you decide to upgrade your composting toilet, the hard part of removing the original won’t need repeating!

      Me three…except the pull back shot at the end could be new property. Usually national parks aren’t set up like that for camping. Boon docking is camping with zero amenities. So, guess it’s a huge undeveloped property that the new container home will go to while living in the camper. We are all guessing here but that was the only thing at the end. The property is beautiful and looked mowed in the one area.

    I would recommend Adding a pee funnel and routing it either directly underneath, or to the blackwater tank after fully flushing it. That way you can still dump the blackwater tank in the wild but a direct to outside wouldn't stink up the area if you're in a campground. Having to empty that pee container every day or two is going to get really old, really fast. Watch some vanlife channels, you'll learn a lot about life on the road.

    I can relate to the travel situation. Across country from Virginia Beach to San Diego, in a large SUV with two toddlers, a newborn,.......and a mother in law! We survived, but it got old around East Texas. That was 9 days with all the hotels. We came back in 4 and half days nearly non-stop with a lay over in New Orleans that I did not count in the travel time. My point is when you have babies, travel is awfully hard on them to be kept in a car seat like that. Im sure you folks know that by now. Kudos on using the RV to make life easier.

    We haven't found either vinegar or sugar to be helpful with odor in our separating toilet. We use a product called Nilodor urine digester and add a slosh to the bottom of the liquids bottle when it is empty. We also dilute some in a spray bottle to use as a flush but I would't do that with kids, I'd just add more product to start with and then use just water in a spray bottle.
    They have different scents available, we find the soft linen the least imposing.
    We started with coco coir but then liked aspen pet bedding from Walmart better. We also use wood pellets if the aspen isn't available.

    I don’t know if you call it camping but having a 40’ RV and having everything you would at home with you lol. The generator for days we didn’t have hook up’s worked great. Most of the camp grounds had black/gray water waste areas so you can dump. Plus we learn to conserve when on the road if we stop somewhere you use the public facilities instead. You learn to adapt as you go and prepare ahead in some case. Walmart had free over night lodging lol and did our shopping then! Love the Keys!

That seems to be a lot of work for him , not sure if he does it once a yr .or more....he has a video how he does it and you might want to see it....let me know if you want the name.....it shows him in the summer with all the buckets that's been collected, is washed & scrubbed out & rinse and let dry for the next yr..... he has a compost out by itself with bins and think they have bin sections partition off and when they all get full, then he takes the oldest & uses that for his trees, etc.....maybe flowers....but I don't think Garden, but heard some people do , but to me that is totally gross...I doubt when he gets older he will not want to do this.....but it's interesting to hear him describe everything he does.....very interesting, I like his blog, even tho I won't ever do homesteading.....been there done that....enjoy the easy life now as they say.....I watch your videos when I can, but sure not up to date on them as I started late and haven't even seen them all yet....did see the entire or pretty much all of it when you first started building your home, was with you when the first child was born, but not the second, BYW your kids are beautiful.....enjoy seeing them time to time....I swear you can build or fix anything....Jack of all trades.....in this video you said watch till the end, I was exception to hear about #3 kiddo.... but no eh? Take care hope to catch you guys soon....love the road trip too....Where were you guys with all the Mtn. being covered with trees.....in the video it was beautiful....I love Trees.....take care .....Prayers for your family......we all need them & can't get enough....just remember to vote in 24.....sure you know how much it means !!!.....6/18/23 and hope you had a great Father's Day.....mg

    I’m sure I missed the episode, but what are the details on the truck. Also the oven will burn less if you put a tile on the metal plate that the burner heats up in the oven. Makes it to where you can actually bake stuff like cookies and biscuits without burning. They also make couplers that you can just remove the T to the toilet water line and not have to cap it. If I weren’t in Florida I’d come hook you up. 😂 one last thing, black tanks don’t just empty. They never do. You
    Are better off not using them for anything but liquid. But the waste never just empties. Since you aren’t going to use the black tank have you considered plumbing the shower to it so the kitchen sink will have 30 gallons and the shower 30 gallons?

    Sounds like a crappy deal that he has to work on LOLOL. Poor guy!! It is a GREAT idea though for sure. When we bought our first camper a 21 footer and use to rent a spot. After a while we decided to get a 42 foot camper and leave our trailer year round in the same facility in a bigger space. We did this for about 13 years and met so many other families over the years and we were all like family. When I was a child many moons ago my parents would take us camping we had to take two cars and two tents for a family of 8 kids PLUS mom and dad but, we had so much fun camping and fishing, hiking as well many GREAT memories for sure. It's a GOOD thing to do with your kids and the memories will always be with them. God is Blessing you all and most of all HAVE FUN!!!
