Finished the bathroom roof and trim. Started interior by building live edge countertop and a 5 gallon bucket toilet. The toilet will be lined with compostable bags with saw dust for odor control and ease of disposal. Next up is stone floor and concrete shower pan with metal siding.
Tested out a Flying Fox from Whiskey River Art and Trading Company. Will try out the 5lb splitting ax in a future video. Give them a visit at the link below for some great outdoor gear.

down the road I recommend you lay down cork floors. Its naturally antimicrobial and water resistant and needs basically the same maintenance as normal wood floor. Since its such a small space it shouldn't be cost prohibitive and it will really help with spills when swapping buckets

@koningbolo4700 6 ай бұрын

You may find a single bucket for both the email and faxes could prove becomming a smelly mess to deal with. I have a bucket toilet in my campervan for years now and it is great since mine has a seperating feature for said means of communication. In your case the emails can be [lumbed outside into a soak away a couple of yards away (and possibly down slope), the faxes can be delt with using a composting heap setup in the same geral area. In any case, you may be able to find a urine seperating toilet insert... they look and act just like a regular water flushing toilet bowl... Separette has a very affordable one in black and white..

I love your work and the cabin, but having the commode be just a bucket will be emergency use at best - too smelly and messy for anything else. There are so many options available that bag off the waste with each use and so on, wondering if those would be more practical.

@TheOffGridExperience 10 ай бұрын

Thanks. I think the bucket with compost bag and sawdust will be sufficient for this particular cabin. If it was a full time residence, I’d reconsider.
