Just dropped some new hand made products!!
Check them out here: www.grankvist-outdoors.com
I hand-craft all these wooden products myself. I can only make a few at a time, so you have to be first to buy one when a new batch is released. They are all made from hard nordic oak, making them extremely durable, holding up for a lifetime of abuse.
I was told that my dream of selling handmade products wouldn’t work in today's world where everything is mass produced. I want to prove them wrong. My goal is to expand into other handmade products eventually. Making a series of lifetime quality handmade goods. Breaking free from mass production, supporting our environment.
So check out my website: www.grankvist-outdoors.com
---------
This is my gear that I use to make these videos possible:
My main camera: amzn.to/3D060lt
My second camera: amzn.to/3NHWWpZ
My lens: amzn.to/3JHDCbd
My drone: amzn.to/3rgvlEX
These amazon links are affiliate links. By using these links I earn a small fee from your purchase, it does NOT cost you anything extra. Thank you for your support and be creative with your new gear!
Thank you Stevie Antoniou Media for editing this video!

Brother, if that little lady left you, I feel sad for you, of course. As to the lady, for as good a man as you are, unless you just didn't want children, she's an idiot. If she didn't want children, she's got to have lost her mind. Men don't come any better, and that's a fact. You have skill, determination, and a strong work ethic. Any woman should be proud to wait on such a man, hand and foot because, Brother, you earn every minute of it. It would take one impressive woman to earn in service to you, what she would get from you. May God's blessings go with you as you work.

@@JS-pw8nr It feels no man is enough for this day women. Must be partly of that brainwashing from society and tv-series and empowering them too much. I believe there is a role for man and woman and pushing another's role for another is not mentally right. Ofc humans are equals but there's a natural reason for us to be different and also to have different roles in life. I'm good looking and handy guy and good with the children too but have already gave up for finding an woman since in my past I were always finding my woman to cheat on me and must be that they just always want to seek a better one even they will never find that. Anyway sadly it is what it is..

I met your channel 2 years ago and I saw all the process in the cabin and a little bit of your life with your family and girlfriend. I’ve been 3 years with my gf and she left 3 months ago. With my family we built a motorhome and she was involved in it, similar experience with your beautiful log cabin. It is extremely hard being alone in those places where you two spent so many experiences together, so I understand this. I hope you the best man. ❤

So so good Erik. Sorry the young lady left but I think very few ladies want to live in the wilderness that you love. Great work as usual. You are very sober usually but coming back and looking in on that beautiful floor I noticed your face couldn't help but be proud. Some men do very well single. I wonder, do you have an electric generator? Your cabin seems very bright. That stove you built is incredible. Hope your business grows enough so we can order things from the US. You are just one outstanding young man. Good on you.

As a 55-year-old man who is also a grandfather, I can tell you quite honestly that women come and women go, But a good dog will leave you with memories forever. As I am sitting here pictures of my GSP are next to me. God definitely broke the mold when he made those dogs the absolute best companions in the world. You will find a woman who wants to live this life with you who is your equal and your partner and helps you with everything that you do and challenges you in all ways. I promise you that one day you will find a woman that you cannot live without. In the meantime, do not settle for one that you can live with even right now it seems very difficult, but I can promise you, this, too, shall pass.

I also come from background of hunting and enjoying + preserving outdoors. My grandfather thought me to hunt when I was just 10 years old and have kept that tradition on for decades. I have a a cottage too. Old and modest but it serves the purpose. Have spoiled my self too much with gadgets there though Didn't built it myself my great grandfather did. That is the place I normally spend all my freetime (holidays) at. And most of that time is for keeping it funtional :)
