DIY Barrel Sauna Build: I'll SHOW you How You Can Make Your Own BARREL SAUNA from regular stud wood!

I'm going to walk you through my build process from start to finish, and go into every bit of detail you'll need to be able to build your own DIY barrel sauna in your own back yard! The community saunas and steam rooms may be closed, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy the many benefits of sitting in a sauna! Take control of your happiness, take control of your health, take control of your life and build your own!
Materials:
80x 2x6 Studs (This will do the staves and walls).
13x 2x4x8 (This will do the benches, and enough left over for your door handle, and framing around the heater)

Tools Needed:
Rubber Mallet
Combination square
Level
Jig Saw
Circular Saw
Drill, with Robertson bit, regular wood, and counter-sink bit
Router (with edge guide preferably)
Router Table
Table Saw (for ripping the final stave)
Power Sander (unless you like hard labour)
Miter Saw (circular saw and a framing square as a guide can be used)
Band Saw (For making the handle. A jig saw or coping saw will work as well)
1/2" Shank Router Bits: You can get creative and use different / smaller bits. For instance, a single 1/2" straight bit will do your tongue and groove. You just need to run the material an extra time. Standard Round Over and Cove bits would likely also work. Again, it would be a matter of doing one side, and flipping it over to do the other side. I went with 1-1/2" bits so I could do each cut in a single pass of the material. Seeing as there's 44/45ish staves, and 30 uprights for the walls, you're already looking at 148 passes on the router table, and 88 dados cut. So it IS already a large amount of cuts as it is.
1-1/2" Double Flute Straight Bit (for the dados on the staves)
1-1/2" Tongue and Groove Set (for the front and back walls)
1-1/2" Bull Nose 3/4" Radius Bit (for the canoe joints on the staves)
1-1/2" Round Nose 3/4" Radius Bit (for the canoe joints on the staves)
