Those little diesel heaters are coming more common on homesteads. Seem to work very well! Keep up the content! Enjoy watching you guys!
Warmer outhouse is definitely a plus 😊nice job
Doing what you have to do...creed of the homesteaders
Nice job. Warm outhouse is always better than cold.
Great job.
Don't be too hard on yourselves on the way you do things. It looks good from here.
That was a lesson my husband kept telling me when I didn't think everything looked perfect on youtube.
He always told me..."Do you, and no one else"....😂 Easier said, then done.
We love your content.
Nice
use a piece of plywood in the front above the door to fix the issue with the insulation from faling out
Warm outhouse👍. Enjoy🇺🇸❤️
Add a small solar panel to keep the battery charged up all day and night.
Ahh nothing like a warm bathroom ~
@pandaloves17
It's only an outhouse toilet def not a bathroom .... yet, as least.
You can cover those openings with some planks and put your foom in between.
Great idea for heating the out house, not to find a heat toilet SEAT !¡
Temporary fix to the outhouse shall be ok, Spring is just around the corner folks and you'll have heat , doesn't matter what it looks like it will do until you can fix it. Id put a foam toilet seat on it ( blue foam is warm). Nice work you won't want to leave it lol. That is a good heater . see ya on the next one folks .
Glad to hear from you again! Moving along to improve your home and outhouse great job..look forward to hearing from you again soon💕
Another enjoyable video 😊. Thanks for sharing this with me 😀.
Thank you for joining us 🩵
Nice to see you again. Hope you're pretty much dug out. Everyone is really looking forward to spring. We go from low30's at night to 50's daily. Seeing light at the end of the tunnel. Good luck. See you on the next one❤❤
Good morning, great job. After watching several channels on homesteading, off grid, etc. I wanted to mention that from what they said critters will haul away pink/soft insulation for their nests. Hopefully you can find a more permanent solution before next winter but the heater had to happen. Stay warm spring is coming.
He’s planning on blocking it in with wood long term but right now all our 2x4’s are buried under ice and few feet of snow. Hopefully the birds and squirrels don’t take off with it before spring.
@@ouralaskahomestead oh good, must be toasty now. Hope you both have a good day.
You’re never going to want to leave bathroom now. Lol
It’s a lot more comfortable now that’s for sure
Great addition to your palace 😊
Who cares what it looks like!! It's an outhouse! At least it'll be warmer. Worry about the looks when you get to it. 😮
Hi both that outside toilet looks brutal just the walk there from the house in minus 30/40 /50 deg😮🥶
I want to retire in the Talkeetna area. We rented a nice cabin on a lake there, no neighbors no noise. Was perfect, first time in many years I slept all through the night . 😊
Good hunting up that way.
If you follow or contact Eric and Arielle @Simple Living Alaska
, theyve been off-grid in Alaska for a number of years now and moved from maybe Wassilla area to up near TOK a year ago. He has done several of those diesel heaters for different projects. A truly likeable couple who will have zero hesitation in helping you troubleshoot.
Very nice! I hear those heaters are great. Thanks
I like my Stanley fat max 35 foot long measuring tape alot.
Much improvement!❤
🤘
with the Tape just put clear tape on it scotch tape it fixed mine good job on the toilet to nothing worse than freezing in the toilet
Also on the exhaust where you screwed it to the wood wall, I would take a piece of the concrete backer board you used around your fireplace and screw that to the wall then screw the exhaust to that. Could help prevent a fire.
Good idea!
Very nice look good
I do woodworking and construction for a living and for the general purposes that you will be doing I would recommend an Stanley fatmax.
I’ll check it out, thanks
I can't imagine trying to do my business with the wind whipping through those cracks. This should make you both much more comfortable. Do you plan to do plumbing in the house at some point?
Yes, in the next few weeks or so we will start putting together the bathroom. Over the summer we will get all the pipes under the house run and hook into the spring to hopefully have running water.
Won't that soft installation get wet and mold?
It didn’t seem to. The overhang covers it pretty well. It was just temporary anyhow and has since been removed. It was just to get us through last winter.
and that heater you should mount it to the wall
The way it’s designed it has to sit. Wall Mount option would be nice.
Been using Komelon self lock for years. Wouldn’t buy a Stanley again.
I’ll check them out, thanks.
You cant sit on a cold hard plastic toilet seat. Cut your own seat out of foam insulation board...much better as it is not cold to sit on and warms up quickly. Also, keep your toilet paper in a tin tobacco or coffee can with a lid...save it from the mice etc.
We luckily don’t have mice around here. I will definitely look into getting some foam for a seat though because yes, the one we have is very cold in the winter.
@@ouralaskahomestead Yes, my friends have lived off grid in Northern B.C. and the foam board is the way to go...and you can change it out every 3 months if you want. Your tushie will be happy.
All tapes are good if you don't step on them
Stanley fat max
You make a mess and waste a lot stuff
Actually this is the exact opposite of wasting materials. Every piece was repurposed from a previous project. Yes, when you’re doing construction there is usually mess. We always clean up afterwards.
