In this build I repurpose materials including a giant spindle and turn it into a tiny rocket ship house.

"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.
Many people ask me where I am from and where I film my projects. I am from Northern Ontario, Canada, and live in an area where off-grinding is easy because I have lots of land to build on and experiment with different buildings and materials. Everything I do is to try to be more self reliant, and to depend less on others. But that doesn't mean I don't like working together with other people on projects. Knowing people who have skills is part of being self reliant, and trading skills is a great way to get more things done!

You will probably want a window. It might look really nice to have a bay window with a bench seat added to the most picturesque side. I could easily imagine curling up with a good book reading watching the snow fall in the tiny little cabin.

I've watched every episode you've made and always admired your uniqueness when designing or building something. Ie the cube, the glass house chapel or sauna. I'll tell you what, though, not only is this castle beautiful, but that door alone is a work of art. I know you're good at doing recessed ceilings like in the cube, but to build a door that is curved and make it fit exactly like it should was super impressive. Not to mention how great the door looks to begin with. Thanks for sharing your life with us. I, for one, appreciate it.

Your daughter will love all the little "forts" or "playhouses", depending on her perspective, you're building. I don't know how kids play these days, but we would have loved any one of these as "base" for our childhood antics. The hideout in the woods to get away from the 'rents (although they kicked us out every day until supper and then again until dark, so they were waaaaay ahead of us. I figure, like most dads, that if you didn't do this for economic reasons you wouldn't have time to spend on these projects. A bonus for your clan.

Are you going to spray foam the door? I’m guessing you could heat this place with a candle 😁. Thanks for sharing and your lovely wife visit was just an added bonus!

@danielhayes4862 7 ай бұрын

Love the curves in general and the door in particular. The height of the roof is awesome. I do wish that rather than only building on the spool you had cut it in half and used the halves on either end of an eight foot square centre section to make a more usable space. You could then still have the curved door set into one end for the entrance but the other end could have a nice curved window or series of windows and a bench/seat to sit at and look out with the centre section as the practical living section. Maybe if another spool comes up that could be the next section of the castle build :)

once people realize that spray foam is structural then we will save lumber because 24 or maybe 36 on center will be the norm / because as you said you can take a cardboard house and spray foam and you won't need vapor barrier just an air exchanger because it will be so air tight / also you cam do a wall with 2x6 but stager every 24 with 2x4 one in and next out to stop thermal bridging in the wall and the spray foam does the rest

A bit challenging but for the floor you could use your mill and square up some different sizes of logs then cut cookies and arrange in different sizes then there won’t be any gaps to fill in. Around the wall will be the most difficult of course. Oh and my guess is it took you about two hours to do your spinals
