    Looks nice, but I'm not sure in what world $6,500 is considered "affordable".

    My man, I cannot tell you how impressed I am with you and your builds. I found your channel a couple weeks ago and I can’t get enough. I flip houses for a living and it seems impossible to find quality workers with a strong work ethic who take pride in their work, so I end up doing things myself like you.
    What you are doing is exactly what my dreams are. A beautiful modern tiny home in the forest with a sauna. I couldn’t have designed a better build in a more beautiful place. Congrats on your success! Your videos inspire me to get out and make my dream a reality. Keep up the good work and God bless!

    That's an awesome path and sauna. I wish you could rotate the window 90 degrees. Seems like that would provide a wider view without the center vertical wood piece. Keep up the good work, looks great.

    This is just spectacular. But, my husband is often on canes or crutches, and I’m a caregiver for disabled elderly folks: there’s no handicap accessibility? I’m sure you had to decide your priorities as a builder and AirBnB host, and the results are certainly impressive. I sometimes have to choose where my clients might be staying, and having to tell them they can’t stay at a particular place because there isn’t any handicap/wheelchair access is so disheartening. Is it a huge pain to build to those parameters? Probably pricey, too.
    Thank you for sharing your amazing talent of stick-to-idness tenacity. The result is quite beautiful.

    Great video! Thank you very much! We rented a very similar sauna, and I found a few things to improve. There is no drain in the floor and no ventilation, so I found a few touches of mold.

      I'm blown away by the quality! They do actually have the same heater that I got with a wifi link for warming it up remote but I didn't get that one because it's gonna be an airbnb and I don't want to get a million emails from guests that are having troubles connecting to the sauna on WiFi. Plus it just makes for a better guest experience not having to constantly message me.

    Just a tip, i know it looks ugly but definitely put some grip tape strips on the centre of each of the planks on the walkway. Saves your ass if their wet, as someone could easily slip, but with grip tape it's less likely.

    • @devonloerop
      @devonloerop  11 місяців тому

      hey sean! You totally should get one, the timer automatically shuts it off in one hour. Plus there's a timer mode where guests can for example go skiing and present it to turn on in 6 hours so they can hop in right when they get home.
