Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 тра 2024
- In this video I build a natural stone mountain-esque hot spring in my parents backyard with a waterfall. The DIY stone hot tub is made of natural mossy limestone to look like a mountain hot spring and is heated by a wood fired pool heater. This asmr build video covers every step of building this unique stone hot tub including the excavation, placing the boulders, pouring concrete, bricking the walls, adding pool plumbing, adding stone tile, building the waterfall and landscaping. Full asmr music build video with narration.

How many of you made it all the way the the end?
It was worth watching. I spent several minutes trying to envision what your design was going to look like, but couldn't see the vision. But it turned out awesome in the end, great work.
I did!
I loved it
Just finished
It was soooo cool
THIS IS INSANE!!!!!!!!!! Awesome job man! Parents must be so stoked!
Don't Have a Good Day, Have a Great Day!
They like the looks aren't super keen on the wood fired heating ha
@@DrewBuildsStufflmao well they gotta learn to like it cause this is badass and free for them lmao love the build dude
@@DrewBuildsStuff yeah i think it would be more better and easier to heat the water with propane and probably wont take as long to heat the water , i still like wood stove though
@@DrewBuildsStuff Good one drew!!! For real, they have to be the proudest parents. You did such a brilliant job.
I am Perry and I install swimming pools here in North Dakota your best option will be to drain the pool blowout all the pipes and run some antifreeze through them so they don’t freeze and crack draining the hot tub will allow you to clean it up come spring and to put some water new freshwater inside also I really enjoy watching your videos you have been giving me so many building ideas so far thanks keep doing what you are doing
yo friend, gotta tell you about this little thing called punctuation.
What's the point if you can't use it in the winter?
🤓
@@appl314 Was thinking the same thing. Winter is prime time for using hot tubs. Still gorgeous, though.
@@appl314sure you can use it in the winter but without a full cover and extra heaters, it’s not going to work in Canada
can we see a "later" video. How did the plants do? What did you decide to do for winter? How much maintenance did the pool need (clearing tree needles, chemicals) How did you parents keep up with the wood?
this is what I was thinking. The maintenance of this thing has to be miserable.
Speaking as someone who operated pools for 10 years:
To winterize: You want to drain the pipes, add antifreeze, and seal them. Water freezing will expand and crack them. However, DO NOT drain the pool! The change of pressure of filled/not filled over a season will actually crack the concrete of your walls. Water in the earth freezes and expands, and you need the pressure of the water to push back. That's an oversimplified explanation but you get the gist. I'd also recommend getting some sort of cover. Since this is custom, you'll likely have to make something custom fit. A sheet with stretchy loops, then some sturdy poles buried underground with hooks on top. Bury them so the hooks are barely visible and don't disrupt your aesthetic too much when in use. It goes a long way to keeping it clean so there less work getting it ready again for when you open it again. Otherwise leaves and other debris will get in and rot all winter. It is disgusting to clean it. Also, just throw in some chlorine tabs and possibly some algae-cide from time to time. Also, consult with a local pool company. The natural water of an area differs from region to region and you may need additional treatment. (for example where I live, the natural calcium of water is very low and we have to add more to avoid the water eroding it from the concrete. Other areas have too much and crusty calcium deposits start to form) The cover and chemicals will save you a lot of work reopening it. Otherwise the water will get very nasty and you will spend much more time cleaning it when you reopen it. You should still drain, clean, and refill it with fresh water when you reopen it.
Wouldn’t this be best enjoyed during the winter?
@@johnweinhandl8890 itd prob need constant heating and running for that
@@darrenlewis8297 my point is I live in MN, if he’s in Canada I know he’ll only get like 6months a year out of it. If you can’t use it in the winter
Yeah you don't need 10 years in pool operation to know water ruins pipes when freezing and that water is volatile under external pressures
@@super8bitvideos I wish that were the case. In the time I spent operating pools, 50% of what I did was fixing the mistakes of people who thought they knew what they were doing. Granted my boss wasn't selective and would hire any idiot who had gotten their CPO license, but even better managed facilities screwed up a lot. There were lots of jobs that only me and a select few others were allowed to tackle, because people are stupid. Common sense is not common. There are a lot of people who don't know water expands when it freezes. And even those that do miss interpret it. There is another high rated comment here that is telling people to drain the pool because water will expand cracking the walls and by draining the pool there won't be enough behind the walls to crack it. Its very wrong, and people following his advice are cutting the lifetime of their pools and hot tubs. And he's claiming more experience than me.
Man that's single handedly the coolest hot tub or waterfall install I've ever seen on UA-cam
for real
Hopefully it isn't very cool at all if it's supposed to be a hot tub
Thanks for watching!!
Agreed and I've sent a lot of the professional ones this one is truly spectacular and original
@@DrewBuildsStuffyou should look into underground thermal heating, ran off solar this could be the temperature you want all the time for free, minis the initial lay out! I would be hit all winter and cool all summer
Drew - your parents are lucky to have a talented, creative son like you! They won the genetic lottery. As a Boomer, I’ve learned quite a few design & construction techniques from you! Thanks 😊
Okay boomer
Drew, your parents are saints to allow you to do so many projects on their property. I am sure that they are very proud of you. You do excellent work and spare no expense.
I realized less than 5 minutes into this video I could never put myself through all of that work. I did however watch until the end. Your ingenuity, work ethic, and desire to build something amazing for your parents to enjoy is truly admirable. Incredible job!
Hey Drew I'm a swimming pool contractor in Florida, as far as how to winterize your Homemade spa you definitely want to drain it. Unless you're going to heat it all winter because you did not waterproof the walls of the spa as you stated water will get behind them and for sure freeze and break the walls and seats and floor. There will also be some difficulties to overcome due to the exposed Pea gravel and voids in the rocks This will allow algae and bacteria to fester With no way to clean it. I know what you're thinking the chlorine will just kill it but that's not exactly true to keep levels within range for use there will be a gradient of sanitary water to water that is stagnant and filled with bacteria. this will cause you to have a constant battle with Staphylococcus cytoplasm and other various bacterial growths. My recommendation is every couple of weeks to bring the Spa to 50 parts per million chlorine to kill any bacteria before use skipping this step will result in hot tub rash hot tub lung and other infections. This project came out beautifully But it was definitely not built to code I don't expect this hot tub to last for more than five to 10 years😃
Thanks for your comment, our thoughts went in the same direction how to keep it clean. These 'beginner mistakes' can waste a lot of money and energy for the builder which is a pity. We are thinking of building a natural pool without use of chlorine etc but in winter time a bird will drown in it, a frog might die in it and rodents make use of it during the year. So easy clean or at least making it possible to clean it for health safety will be priority for us.
I live in FL and want to build a permanent above ground pool but probably need some engineer drawings as I want to do it legally. I'm near Jacksonville. Do you think any pool contractors would work with me lol or what steps would you recommend to get started?
Thank god somebody commented this.
@@4711Express I'm not sure why in this day and age there's such a fear of chlorine. chlorine has saved more lives than any other chemica.l It is what's made municipal tap water available and safe to drink for everyone in the United States, and it is the only reliable way to sanitize water for distribution
@@digi3218 first thing you need to do is get a site survey that will give you your setbacks and show where you're allowed to build. I see you said above ground pool why do you want to build your pool above ground? A freestanding pool made of concrete cost a lot more to build and to heat.
"As long as I'm making money on UA-cam, I'll just pump it into the next video." I instantly subscribed when I heard these words. People don't realize the tremendous amount of money, time, and labor that goes into big project videos like this. Amazing work my dude!
Thank you! Yes, I wouldn’t be able to do any of these builds without UA-cam, pushing to see how far I can take the builds!
@@DrewBuildsStuff yeah i think some people think most them builds cost no money or money grew on trees or something , it cost a lot of money to have a big UA-cam channel and if you have the subscribers you can make pretty decent money from UA-cam and get great sponsorships helps a lot to
amen. if I could click 7 times, I would. A young man with a plan. And it is working. Hope my single click contributes to the costs, bigtime.
Well said.
Now all do your part!
So true! I like to work with my hands also. You complete a job and people are like, hey lets do this in my yard also! As if it were just an easy process. LOL! You think to yourself, ya go ahead and start, I'll come over when you buy the rocks and have them delivered. (as if that will ever happen.)
It boggles my mind when i see people with such talent and ability, create beautiful projects like yours. So well done,I'm sure that your parents are thrilled to have sons like you and your brother work together giving your time and love.
Gorgeous. Made a pond from the ground up with my dad when i was younger using rocks from our farm to surround it and make a waterfall. That was a lot of work. This is insane. Love it!
I don’t know how this ended up in my recommended videos, but this was so interesting to watch. Well done, it’s super impressive! I would love to go relaxing in there right now. 😌
Ditto! My best guess is you watched something to do with DIY, homes, design or architecture😊
Thanks for watching! Appreciate the comment
same here
To be fair I’m not sure how it ended up in my feed either, but the chick in the bikini defo had a part in my clicking it !! 😂 Now subscribed as impressed with the great channel! Thanks.
I build ponds and have had this crazy idea that this was possible and havent seen anyone try it. You went way further than I would have taken the risk on. But literally made my dream man. Good shit!
Thanks for watching! Probably overshot my skills a bit so we’ll see how it holds up
I want to strat building ponds. And this has always been the main thing I would to build. Naturalistic jacuzzi
His proven the theory and now this will be the new fad for the next 10 years
@@DrewBuildsStuff My concern is the hold up, should wire it to an instant electric water heater
@@DrewBuildsStuff Greetings from the other side of the country.. I'm on Vancouver Island, and one day I would love to buy a small plot of land, just big enough for my tiny home, and build something like this, but a little bigger. But now I have a video I can reflect on, and watch again.. Good Job.
*HOWEVER* with the amount of "tree debris" you're going to get in the water, I would install a sand filter along with the skimmer filter you have in pump house.
Man you make it look so easy but I know its a lot of hard work and planning. It looks stellar mate, what a fantastic job.
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful images, music and great commentary. Not to mention the end product!!!
Drew, you are astonishing with the projects you tackle and all the skills and calm demeanour you bring to the table.
Watching you in awe from Australia 🇦🇺
To think you thought you were over your head as you put it, and to see the end result is something to be damned proud of. You persevered and it certainly paid off! Incredible job!
Thanks Crystal!
The amount of hours spent for just one video is completely nuts. This is so fantastic. Best channel out there.
It was the longest project so far!
@@DrewBuildsStuff i bet!
💯

I can tell you spent a lot of time just planning your shots, executing them, and doing the final editing on them. Then trying to do the actual work on the project around the shots must have consumed a lot of time. The time lapse of the water filling from the perspective of the bench seat was a one-time opportunity you didn't fail to miss, and your slo-mo / real speed transitions at the end were spot on.
Wow! It's beautiful! Looks like a tropical spa resort. Well done! I'm sure your parents were very happy when they arrived home and saw this lovely layout you had surprised them with. 👌🏾
At 38:48 was the best part! Look at how the grass was even to the bricks and the motion of the water. Oh and whoever the lady is is beautiful too...
It’s my first time watching one of your videos and boy was I impressed. For someone who’s never built a hot tub before that’s the most beautiful one I’ve ever seen! Wow! All the little touches, the mister, the lighting so many extras, you thought of everything. As an old person I might like the option of a gas water heater that I can turn on remotely so everything will be warm and cozy when I come out on a chilly night. Saying that, it’s perfect. Living in Southern California I pictured you going out there in the snow. I guess that’s not practical in your area. I didn’t know that the freezing temperatures would ruin the pipes.
Same
I built a 2,000 gallon cement dunk pool and was thinking of using my potbelly stove to heat the water for use in the winter as a hot tub. Only problem it would have to constantly be heated. Maybe purchasing a jacuzzi heater for when not in use. Maybe I'm overthinking it. In the Midwest we get countless freeze thaw cycles. I have 1,1/2" pvc plumbing around foundation and below. To prevent cracked pvc from freezing I drain %90 of water then add antifreeze in the mix. When winter is over I flush everything out into Four, 5gallon containers for next time.
I wish I had a son like you! Great job, I’m sure your parents are delighted. 👍🏻💯💪❤️
Thanks for watching! Yes the freezing will cause damage but it will be the spring thaw that will likely be a bigger problem. The ground shifts and tries to push everything around, will be interesting
samee
Drew's parents are so lucky to have him turning their property not an absolute dream property! I don't really know how monetization works on youtube but I really hope Drew keeps bringing in enough to continue these awesome large builds!
Thanks for watching brianne!!
Eh its gotta be a mixed bag for them. One side some cool stuff. Otherside hes approaching 30 and the money dropped on all of this stuff would be enough to have the down payment on a nice place with some acreage he could go nuts with. And in all reality itd be even more content possibilities upgrading the house and property.
yea
One day maybe he'll have his own house to fix up nicely too!
@@mtmadigan82 you must not be from Canada if you think 20k is even a 5th of a down payment.
Wow! 🤩 Absolutely incredible and a wonderful gift for your parents!!! They’re lucky to have you! As a fellow Canadian I’m so happy I found your channel as I feel that it’s important to support other Canadians! Thank you for sharing! ❤
Whew! What a job but that is simply gorgeous! The landscaping and lighting is just beautiful! Enjoy❤
Lets be honest. We all wanted to make this or some of his builds in our lives at some point. But you know how much detail, hard work, passion, commitment and patience goes into it and you wave the idea away. This man just does it and takes joy in it. Massive respect. It looks insane and beautiful. Enjoy your hot spring with a nice cold beer.
And money.
@@aeromorte Yeah, that's the main one.
I like that he pointed out that he had big concerns and the stress would get to him sometimes. It can be easy, as a viewer, to just assume the whole thing went smoothly and wasn't a big deal because we get to just see it from start to finish and not actually be involved with the logistics of it all.
I nearly cancelled this build 3 days in a row when I first started digging. More stress than I like in a build.
@@DrewBuildsStuff looking back i bet it was worth the stress. Or am i wrong?
If you do this yourself. One tip I have from building water features over the past twenty years is buy extra underlayment. Cut pieces of it and place them on the pond liner and under the boulders to prevent puncturing the liner. Double them or triple the pieces if you need to but PROTECT the liner!! That is all.
Great build!
Facts, As someone who helps fix his GF's pond constantly, this was a huge oversight when hers was built.
Your parents property is soooo beautiful and you’ve just increased the value of their property.
Your parents are the coolest ever. They’ve just let ya build and do as you do!!
So thankful for your videos and all the work you put in.
You’re amazing dude.
first time watching you and being a concrete guy I must say you did a very good job man. you did not cut any corners and kept it sweet and simple along the way. Great video man...gets my thumbs up!!!
Made it to the end. As for wintering it up, I think it may be easier to drain it fully and cover it with a tent or tarp just to make spring time restart less hassle of fishing out any dropped foliage.
Although, if you keep a low fire going in the heater. Stretch a large-ish canopy or frame wall tent over it so you could have a middle of Canadian winter personal hot spring to relax in while there's a foot or more of snow on the ground. If you're thinking about doing that in particular, you might want to take up some of the mulch and dirt to line with landscape felt then cover with a good five inches of river gravel to be the dressing and drying off area.
The heat from the water would warm the temporary shelter space. So that space may evolve into a family gathering in winter to cook on a grill, enjoy a warm soak while everyone else is hemmed up in their houses.
This was an incredibly inspiring build to watch. Though if I spent that much money, I’d want it to be at least 104-106 degrees! Also, being able to use it in the winter is an absolute must! Enjoy.
Yeah this seems awesome but having another heating source other than wood as an option would be nice.
OMG! OMG! There are no words to adequately describe that hot spring! Beautiful, incredible, awesome, GORGEOUS!!
I want one!!!
My brother is a pool builder, so I really appreciate your attention to detail and the heart and soul you put into it. Great Job.
This build was absolutely unreal! Your parents, nieces, nephews and entire family will enjoy it for years. You use meticulous and painstaking detail in each build. Thank you for sharing this with us.
The ultrasound mister really seals the deal. I'd love to relax after a work day with a small drink in a corner of artificial nature like this.
This is absolutely Epic. I've been searching endlessly for an example of what you have done here. We build many swimming ponds in a season but I personally want to do a hot spring. And now I'm gonna do it! Thanks for all this hard work!
Simply put, I concur with all of the other comments. Amazing. Will watch any project you are a part of 👍🇬🇧
I am blown away at the level of detail and intricacies of this build. And to make it up as you go along each day in your head…. Awesome.
Most people would have likely quit two weeks in. Hats off and congrats to seeing it through. Many years of hot tub soaking to enjoy.
Shoulda put more geo fabric under the rocks as they could puncture the liner.
@@user-gz8bq7wr7iyeah ok kiddo..guarantee you're clueless and just hating behind from behind a screen with your fat fingers and a kaypad.
I can’t imagine a more relaxed and chilled out place to be after the stress of a long day, you should be very proud of yourself, you’re very talented.
By the time your back from work and warm this thing up, you should be 3 hours into your sleep for the next day...
😮WOW! Holy $h!t! 😮
I am just blown away on the finished project. It literally took my breath away. Absolutely exquisite!
The attention to detail was carefully executed to absolute perfection.
Your work is truly magnificent ! ❤❤
Absolutely incredible. You are a true artist. I have watched a few of your videos and you have blown me away with your talent. Great video work all around too. Just the total package.
I love all the attention to detail, as it’s not only about the function, but also the aesthetic
The scope of your projects is always crazy. Other DIY channels tend to do smaller projects (and nothing wrong with that!) but I love the giant scope projects like this, it really lets my brain run wild
Glad to hear it! Big projects look daunting but really you just need to break them into small steps
😍 That looks so peaceful. It's absolutely amazing.
Fair bloody play mate, I am a DIY man myself and completely renovating my 3 bed house myself at the moment including rebuilding the stairs and doing all the plastering. I appreciate the time and effort it takes to research and learn the skills required to do something new. This looks brilliant, well done.
Thanks for watching!
What a beautiful project. Everything about it is just stunning. You can tell you put in so much effort to this build for so long and it paid off tremendously. Your builds never cease to amaze me and they always get better and better. You really have a gift to pull off these builds and have an amazing brother and family to help you out😂. Also that last bit was hilarious. Excellent work
Lmao @effort...I guess u missed budget
Lmao yea not for everyone😂
I have a budget now but I was super broke when I started this channel. $100 used to be a lot to spend on a UA-cam build
@@DrewBuildsStuff Your work has definitely paid off I guess😂
NO GIRLS! Some teenager humor. Fantastic!
That would be nice for a summer time dunking cool water pool as well. Great job.
WOW I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH ABOUT THIS PROJECT ITS TRULY BUEATIFUL AND AMAZING
The end was the best. I absolutely love that this is in your parents backyard. Family time is the best time! 👍
I just want to say how impressive this project and YOU are. Inspired me to keep overhauling my house and you gained a subscriber. "Instead of thinking about what could go wrong, think about what could go right"
I agree, it’s hard to get in that mind set when you have dug a giant ice hole in someone’s yard and spent a bunch of money haha
This is simply beautiful great job enjoyed watching very interesting and loved your comments along the way enjoy
Wow! Thank you so much for posting this! I have been researching doing something like this in my backyard, but until now I had not found any post that included such clear instructions. You are very talented!
Incredibly beautiful result! I'm pretty sure you enjoyed your first dip in this pool to the max.
Big hello from Germany.
Hope they enjoy the first few years until the design details start to cause problems with water chemistry.
100% dude just tried to weld stainless with 0 research.....stainless contains chromium....you have to wear a respirator when welding it. you now have chromium oxides in your lungs, enjoy your lung cancer in several years. that was mad dumb

Amazing. This was so much work with a variety of skills applied. I learned a lot, but mostly I’m just in awe of you and what you did here. Thank you!
Another phenomenal video Drew! Incredible! No1 on YT for physical creations without a doubt!
It’s incredible how talented he is. Not only does he make the most original and epic things, but he make the videos so captivating too.
this is amazing. from the actual build, to the cinematography and story telling---so. good.
Drew, This is freakin' phenomenal! You have an excellent sense of aesthetics. Great job!
the editing on this video is unreal. you make a difficult task look easy through how smooth the editing is between the individual steps of construction. a really well explained video.
The unique shape and contorus would be difficult to cover effectively, and the small amount of water isn't worth working hard to clean next year. Drain it, blow out the pipes and plug. The pumps and filter should be fine to overwinter in place, as long as they're empty of water. Avoid leaving a filter cartridge/element in the filter body all winter though; if reusable, store it dry and indoors, otherwise discard and replace next year. Get a float actuated submersible pump and a short hose and set it up in the lowest area of the bottom to keep it mostly clean and free of water until you're ready to clean and refill next year.
Thanks for the tips! I’ll try it out once winter comes
@@DrewBuildsStuff Isn't winter the time of the year when you would want a hot tub the most?
@@anonb315not a wood fired, not super insulated hot tub. It would freeze and break apart.
@@jeanlou3 Yeah, that's a bummer. I like the idea, but it seems not so thought through.
@@DrewBuildsStuff Another tip is to use some antifreeze liquids like you use in car radiators in Winter climate and fill in places where there could be risk of water being left. When mixed with any water in the system it makes sure to stay liquid down to minus 14-20 celsius I believe. It can be difficult to blow out/vaccume every single drop. At next season you run some water to the system go "clean" it before filling it up.
WOW! This is incredible! Great work and thank you for sharing!
I watched whole video. Absolutely amazing. You should be so proud of yourself. I felt the panic at the beginning placing the rocks. Simply Amazing
Others have commented on winterizing, so I will put in my two cents on what I have seen when I was a pool installer, back in the day. The second pool company that I worked for (40 years ago) did only one type of pool, monolithic concrete walls, with a vermiculite/ cement bottom, topped by a vinyl liner. It was a huge upgrade from my first pool company products, where we installed steel walls, fiberglass walls, (both still quite acceptable) plastic, and, believe it or not, pressure treated wooden walls...all inground, with a sand/ cement or vermiculite and cement bottom, with a vinyl liner. So. In a neighborhood where we were installing a pool, we came across a home that had a pretty expensive gunite pool in the backyard. The new homeowners had been unaware of the issues that their predecessors, the original homeowners, encountered when putting in a solid(gunite) concrete pool. Their property had a very high water table, (the excavators hit water after only a few scoops from rhe backhoe)and the new owners thought that the pool might crack if their expensive pool was left full of water over the winter. It does get cold here in South Jersey, at the Shore, but we do not have winters as severe as Canada, or our Northern States. So. Not knowing that they needed the weight of the water inside the pool to keep it in place, they emptied the pool. They subsequently discovered a few months into the winter, that the hydrostatic pressure exerted by the high water table had lifted the pool up out of the ground. Quite a bit, actually...and at an angle. I believe that it was a 20' by 40' pool. No bueno. So. Forewarned is forearmed. Cheers...
I'm designing a hot tub on a large riverboat and planning on wood and fiberglass/epoxy right now. Any tips on something like this? Weight is a big concern and it's "above ground". Unfortunately, my space is too unique to just by a manufactured tub.
If you can dream it, you CAN build it! Really appreciate the dedication and execution on filming, editing and voice over to share such a tremendous build. Thank you and enjoy the ride
Drew, first of all, that was incredible. An absolutely huge accomplishment that would intimidate 99.9% of people. I have to say that the winter is absolutely the best time of year to enjoy your awesome creation. My wife and I live in northern MI. and we probably use our hot tub 6-10 times from May-Oct. it is used approximately 70-100 times from Nov.- April. You would need to install an additional heat source of course. Awesome job that turned out absolutely stunning.
It looks absolutely beautiful at the end. Just gorgeous. The hot spring is pretty cool too
Epic work mate. The build, the editing, the narration. It was a pleasure watching.
Your parents must be very proud of you and grateful for what they've got!
Love me a Drew Movie! Can’t wait for the next one…especially the interior buildout of the Tiny Home!
Your build was lovely. 🥰 I hope that you sealed the tile and that it did not fall apart. I loved your video! ❤So AMAZING. 🤩
Thank god you showed family members enjoying the hot spring. I was hoping to see the happiness and smiles after all this hard work.
I'd be so proud of you if I were your parents, this is wonderful!
Couldn’t be more beautiful! Done, and filmed to perfection,
Wonderful n beautiful The land of fairy tale .Thank for sharing your work to everyone .
A COMPLETE example of creativity, passion, dedication, skill, knowledge, hard work combined all together. Big RESPECT ♥🔥
I am in awe! The whole process from an idea to a paper sketch to a finished product was amazing.
:)
I really enjoyed watching the build and seeing the finished product. At night with the lights on and the fog/mist really looks cool.
After reading through some comments from "professionals", about how difficult to clean and water behind the walls & freezing etc.. I would be kicking myself on not being able to plan far enough ahead to properly clean it or about water freezing behind the walls and it making everyone sick or being destroyed within a couple years with all the money & time that went into building it. I'd be wanting to keep it heated full time.
Definately something to be proud of. Nice build.
For a guy who has never completed such a project, I myself, would consider this a professional installation. Very impressive, your family I am sure are very proud, and quite thankful to have such a talented son as you Drew. Sub'd.
nothing can explain the joy and calmness i feel while watching this guy bruh.i hope you go far far drew
8:12 I think before you say, "that's not going anywhere", you're supposed to slap it. Super cool build. Cheers.
Haha I hope I didn’t jinx the build by not doing that
Absolutely stunning. 😊
Wow awesome job. Absolutely incredible
Drew, this is a beautiful gift for your parents. I'm sure they're very pleased, proud, and grateful!! Good job! 👏👏👏
What an amazing build Drew.👍 Love the outro ending, hillarious. 🤣

Oh my God, just beautiful!
Congratulations on this build amigo!
You are developing SO MANY new skills & learning along the way.
Three words to describe this build BRAVE, DYNAMIC & CREATIVE.
Cheers 🍻
You absolutely read my mind about 2 mins in about winterizing it! First time pool owner learning as I go. Amazing build. You should be very proud of that!
Mum & dad gave birth to a brilliant designer. From beginning to usage you make it look effortless
fully aware that it's not. Beautiful setting congratulations 🎊 ❤😊
last week I binge watched all your video's (as one of them came to my feed)
i loved it would be an understatement
u keep ur content interesting unlike anyone else
great camera work excellent editing .love it
now I'm gonna unpause and continue watching
Thanks for watching!!
No word of a lie Drew, someone on my street had something very much like this built this summer. A little bigger, not much and without the wood heat, they paid a touch under 100k. This was a great project, zero chance I could have turned it off without getting to the end way too engrossing. Keep it up sir. 👍
Wow! I watched the entire thing with a stright face trying to grasp everything.. and the final reveal.. oh my god i smiled so wide.. it looked like something out of a movie.
You might want to add some sort of cover, this helps you get it up to temp faster and once you're at desired temp just remove the cover. There are thin bubble wrap sheets you can buy at pool supplies that can be cut to fit.
Working on a rigid cover that will retain heat and also prevent any kids/ animals from falling in. Thanks for watching!
Incredible!! I bet you really enjoyed that first use after everything was finished. That was an insane amount of work and super impressive. Well done.
So good, you are a very skilled person Sir, I watched it from start to finish without skipping.
This is CRAZY. First DIY video I’ve watched in a long time all the way to the end with no skipping. Geez man, this is beautiful.
Brilliant faith in your design. Unique and absolutely dreamy! Almost like an ancient Greek/Roman mountain spa feel. That must have felt so liberating once you were able to soak in your creation. Nothing like having a dream, and making it happen. Your parents must be very proud of you! I am too! XOXO
This is a magnificent work of art and amazing dedication to your parents. Excellent job, young man!😊
Imagine how proud these parents must be of this young man! 👍
Only complaint I have in what you missed is probably a small rail to get in to hold on to. Given the older you are the harder it is to get in and out since its for your parents home. Still first time seeing this channel. Very cool and amazing work
I did think of that and can add one pretty easily if they want it. Haven't received the order yet ha
No hand rails in nature buddy!
