Part 1:    • Building WOOD FIRED HOT TUB (from Scr...  

My buddy Dennis puts together a custom designed stainless steel hot tub from scratch for the off grid cabin in the woods.

We use mostly stainless steal, a lot of welding, and plenty of ingenuity to build a custom made hot tub for the off grid property.

"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.

  • the author does like to from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. youtube.com/post/UgkxD-QRFQz730FJEh4f9BYSf-nkIMIC9… as another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us dont have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we wont be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

    i remember my Nana telling me that the phrase never look a gift horse in the mouth was a saying to remind people not to be rude or ungrateful. horse people look at a horses teeth when buying them, so if someone was to give you a horse (gift horse) then you woul insult the giver if you looked at the teeth to see the " quality" of the horse. im unsure if thats a true explaination, but thats how Ive been taught 🤷‍♀🤷‍♂🤷😄

    Make a cedar lid to go over the water. It will help retain heat and let the tub heat up faster.
  • Hazel ☘️ .. “Boiled Canadian” … 😅😂🤣 1) add four tablespoons of Maple Sugar to hot tub , raise water temp to 102 F 2) add previously washed Canadian 3) simmer for 30 minutes 4) remove Canadian and roll in snow for 5 minutes 6) repeat 4 & 5 above 6 times 7) removed Canadian , pat dry and serve with Maple Syrup and pancakes Enjoy ! 🙏☘️😘

    That’s what I’m talking about!!!!!! Now it’s time for a hot tub and sauna PARTY in the forest!!!!!! Nice work!!!!
  • @genewileyopa
    Reminded me of the old bugs bunny cartoon, were the natives had him cooking in the big kettle. Looked like fun in there Kevin. Were was Don for the plunge in the Hot tube. Thanks for sharing. Iowa enjoys your projects.
  • That was a lot of fun to watch. Thanks for the project. Maybe build a small changing closet attached at the wood burning end, enclosing the burner? So you end up with an 'L' shape. That would provide a space to keep the wood dry if it was raining, keep the change closet warmed up, and direct the smoke higher if you added a taller chimney to exit the change closet roof?

    Welp if we can't Find The Wooded Beardsman in a few months we'll know That Kevin Cooked Him 🤔 🤣🤘🏽💀🤘🏽
  • @Over60sowhat
    Dennis is so interesting to watch!! He's cool!!
  • You should keep the fire on after you get out, boil that bathwater down. Pretty sure after you stewed in it the end product would be maple syrup :P
  • Neat project. The hillbillys in Kentucky have been making similar units for quite some time now. So how do you empty the ash from the stove? Would have been nice to have built one end of the stove adjacent to the outer wall of the tub ,welded it in and you could have installed a stove door with air control vents. Need a solar powered circulation pump to even out the tub temps. A bubbler would be nice too.

  • @jessicad83

  • @alexkasacous

    Dennis’s voice is awesome. Reminds me of a Canadian Bob Ross. He needs to be featured more or have his own channel.
