The complete off grid sauna, bathhouse build from start to finish on my land in the Canadian wilderness. 12 months of Cali, my golden retriever dog, supervising and helping me build the cabin alone, mostly with traditional hand tools, dealing with harsh weather, biting insects and distracted by the incredible scenery and wildlife of Ontario, Canada.

  • @alexwallace866
    Me and the wife just sat and watched this start to finish,neither of us even got up to make a cuppa and I've just realised it was nearly 2 hours. This guy is amazing.

    My soul searches for what’s missing in my life, I come across your videos and now I have my answer(at least some of it). I would love to do what you do. Just retired from construction work 3 months ago after 37 years but there is no comparison from how you do it... old school... to how it’s done in the modern world. Being in the middle of a forest with solitude helps also. Best of luck and thanks for taking us along."

    This man is so talented to see him building his sauna and still have time to play with his furbaby. I would love to live out there. Beautiful!!!

    I’m 75 and I really enjoy watching this fellow. It is people like this that created this country. Not the takers, the doers.

    An actual sauna, as a Finnish person this warms my heart and raises so many memories of great summers next to lakes with similar saunas. Excellent work.
  • @josipbabic6095
    Each time i've watched some of your videos, it gives me will to go outside...rain or shine and find something to do around the house. You are awsome sir.
  • @BonsaiJCan
    Good morning, perfect, just sitting down with a coffee !
  • Great job done by this man, what patience in manufacturing, in the end the reward of seeing his work finished and functional, in the middle of that great place.
  • @ToddandHolly
    My husband and I have been watching for several years. It feels like we are also at the cabin while watching your videos which makes me feel very happy and peaceful. We have been inspired and have plans to move to our cabin in Northern Wisconsin within two years! We are very excited!! Thank you for all your hard work and long hours making these videos. I know they bring smiles to many thousands of people! God bless you and your family!😊
  • You remind me to dare to take one step at a time, have a good plan, be persistent and patient to finally be able to see the final result - good work!
  • Shawn keep on keeping on and I hope you and your family (even Cali) live the long, happy and healthy lives you all deserve for many years to come.
