With a proper sized wood stove they will heat up very fast. They will also cool down very fast. Keeping the fires going is key. So no, it’s not like an insulated home or cabin. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for sharing? Is this outhouse utilized full time (24 hrs/day 7 days/week)? If not, how often? How many people in your family are continually using it? How long approximately does it take to fill 1/2 of the 30 gallon bucket? We need a full-time outhouse for our one income (a very modest one at that!), homeschooling family of 7 in Nova Scotia, Canada (harsh winters). We won't have access to wood chips and could never afford to purchase them for full-time outhouse use. What could we use as a free or very inexpensive substitute? Would you recommend this type of outhouse for our full-time use and in our climate? Thanks, so much! 🙂

yeah but what about permits. My county says any shelter up more than six months becomes a structure and if it is bigger than 10 x 12 then said structure requires a permit. So you either take down a BIGGER shelter every six months - and set it up somewhere else on the property - or you...stay with 10 x 12 structures that are cabin-tents. thanks

In our area, anything larger than 12x12 needs a permit. Our setup is right at that threshold so no permits needed. If we were to go larger with a second tent, then we would have to get a permit. Thanks for watching!

Gray Dogwood- good native shrub, from catbirds, to pilated woodpeckers to browse. Try cutting them flush with ground, after they get age to them. The fresh shoots will attract everything from rabbits to whitetails.

Yes that’s basically what we do. In some places we don’t want the grey dogwood coming back and address it differently. It can dominant an area if you let it and that is what happened on this property before we bought it. Thanks for watching!

The tent is under a rainfly to protect it from the elements. Over time the sun, rain and especially snow can adversely affect the cotton tent fabric. It is way cheaper to replace the rain fly than to replace the tent. We have had our tent setup for almost four years and it is still in great shape. Thanks for watching!

Great vedio! I have been watching all your videos that show your wood stove and how you installed the stove jack. I'm about to install a wood stove on Friday, in my wall tent through the side wall as well! I wasn't able to find where you talk about the heat shield/heat reflector that you have behind your stove. I have never used a woodstove in a wall tent before. Do you find it necessary for safety? or is it more of a heating efficiency sort of thing? THANK YOU!
@mytwelveacres3071
@mytwelveacres3071 2 ай бұрын
Hey thanks for watching! When we went to a larger stove I put the heat shield in. We never had one before that and I never felt as though it was unsafe and it would most likely be fine now without one. The fabric on our tent is fire proof so that is a consideration as well. For the most part I put it up to protect the fabric from the heat in hopes that it would last longer. Hope that helps

Hey thanks for the questions. we drilled approximately a dozen 3/4 inch holes in the bottom of the plastic container. We didn't want to have a chance of there being a large liquid build up. Any excess liquid is allowed to escape through the bottom into a bed of stone. This is a pretty dry system , most if not all the liquid is absorbed by the chips. We use regular toilet paper. When the container gets half full we dump it in the dedicated composting bin, most of the decomposition takes place there. There is very little smell with this system as long as you use plenty of cedar chips after each use. Thanks for watching!
