Building a life off grid. Will it be worth it?

[@CampOutWest]

What sauna design should we go for? Let us know👇

[@TangerineUnicornDesign]

For the sauna, i'd put it on a deck or you'll only ever use it in the summer when it's nice. And put the deck a proper amount off the ground with some steps up or it'll last about 5 minutes.The gravel isn't a good idea, you'll track it into the sauna interior and as where you live is wet a lot of the time, the gravel is going to collect moisture and leaves etc. And that's a bloody good deal on the containers, take the lot. I've just moved three 20' foot containers around on my property and i did two concrete strip footings 500mm wide and sat them next to each other. Containers support themselves through just the corners so to save money, you can literally put piers in that the corners sit on if you want. Cheap as chips, you can pour them yourself and all you need to do is get the piers the right distance apart and level with each other. Then, and trust me on this, pay the money for a guy with a 20 tonne Franna crane for a couple of hours to pick them up from where you drop them initially and set them accurately on the piers. They have all the rigging, all the know how and can drive your container to wherever you need it. You will save yourself a massive amount of messing about and time if you do it this way. And your containers will last a good long time. They need air flow under them, mine are testament to what happens to them when that isn't the case (rusted out floors and bottoms of the sides). I picked 3 from various places on my 4 acres and set them in a line next to each other in less than two hours.

Gravel base so it won't rot

[@stantheman5163]

If it were me I would go with the wood deck since it is usable as a patio area for lounging in the warmer months. Whatever you do make sure you lay down sheeting to stop weed growth.

[@alisonpickford487]

I think the gravel base looks the most attractive x

[@jamesclarke8510]

Gravel base would be best

[@BromideBride]

Guys, in March I will be 22yrs off grid. It's been a journey, but worth every single day. I watched your first video as you drove through the mess of scrap and weeds. A bit like my own beginnings. You will never regret this decision. Being free from the shackles of commercial bollocks will always be the best solution. Keep going. There will be stormy times but that just clears the air for the next sunny day.

[@chantalf3050]

I' d choose the gravel, because the wood base will get very slippery in wet circumstances😊

[@CampOutWest]

Thanks Chantal, we hadn't thought of that and we get a lot of rain too so I can imagine it might turn into an ice rink 🤣

[@chantalf3050]

Yes indeed, that's the problem we have with the wood deck at our shed. And I can tell you wood is quite hard when you fall on it😅

[@dozzy19]

Great work, really like how you are learning as you go, and taking advice on board

[@mellameow5892]

I cannot wait to see what is the content of the containers and what exactly you guys will be doing with them. Please show more of your side hussles next time. Candle making coffee etc. Would love to see the set up

[@isvanalles7747]

I would make a decking for the reasons that you can ad an outdoor cold shower there; you can step outside barefoot; and you won't take so much stuff attached to your shoes or feet inside the sauna. It will stay cleaner overall. In gravel stuff can grow !

[@CampOutWest]

Cold shower is a good idea

John,the plastic caps are upside down. They have 3 siides that insert, the 4th side with no lip goes to the bottom, this allows any moisture in the box section to escape rather than sitting in there. At least ours are that design

If you use a gravel pad, you could always get an outdoor mat like people use for camping. RV mats are a blessing at keeping feet and floors cleaner, and they come in a lot of sizes.

[@jackiewest6997]

Option 2. You can always add more gravel to keep it looking fresh .

[@CampOutWest]

Thanks Jackie, we hadn't thought how easy it would be to add more gravel on at another time. Good idea 👌🏻

[@truth3358]

Hi guys I think you should put vents in to the soffits as in between the staples, i.e. the gap 6 inches every staple you’ll be very surprised what can lift and go and squeeze under that mesh in between the staples Great video as usual 👍👍

[@CampOutWest]

Thanks for the suggestion. We will look into that, cheers 👍

[@brycehourigan4379]

You guys are Legends, I laughed watching you put the cladding on as it went dark, most would stop as the light drops away, but myself like you wouldn't stop until that wall was done. I even said it to my wife as the light started dropping. Both of you are grafters, I enjoy watching, keep it up

[@CampOutWest]

The days are so painfully short now, work lights are a saviour. I switched from the impact driver to drill for the last ones to be quieter too. It was only 6pm but felt so late with the darkness.

@@CampOutWest Exactly my point via a question, weeds grow in gravel all over the world, having worked as a commercial gardener in the past my experience has shown me it's a cheap short sighted solution that becomes a maintenance liability in the future. Good for commercial gardeners that want to keep a maintenance contract.

Thank you! 😊

[@maryd4864]

I think the gravel is the best choice with some nice stepping stones for a walking path, with a couple of planters with plants on each side of the pathway greeting you into the sauna. Wood structures take a lot of maintenance, with having to stain or oil wood every year to keep it looking nice, and to repel moisture. You have a lot of rain there. I live in the desert in the U.S.A., and we get about 10" over the course of a year. We have wood decks, but I wish they were made of a composite material, as the sun is very strong here and it does a lot of damage to wood if it's not properly maintained. Good luck with your projects. I enjoy your videos each week.

[@CampOutWest]

I love the idea of the plants leading up to it.

[@anthonytodd3408]

It will deffo be all worth it, the finish is going to be so nice and clean, all the prep work will mean less problems in the future and a cosy cabin for many many years to come ❤ Gravel will be easier to upkeep, and less dangerous when wet. What a result with the shipping containers can't wait to see what's in them and what you do with them !

[@CampOutWest]

working hard to get a good finish, i know how annoying it'll be to finish it and have mistakes in the finish. Leaning more towards gravel now from everyones comment, someone mentioned pea gravel which has a rounded finish so nicer for feet than gravel.

[@juliederry3719]

Love how your little home is looking so far guys, you say is it worth it, I say “absolutely yes”, in years to come you will be saying “we built this”, and what a fantastic find those shipping containers are, I don’t know how much it’s costing you to move them, but it still has to be a bargain, you can’t beat free, I can’t wait to see inside them, and what a stunning place to walk Maggie, not surprised it’s her favourite place to go walkies, tfs x Julie

[@robertwinsper7409]

For wax oiling in cold conditions try immersing your cans and filled sprayer in an insulated bucket of hot water, the viscosity will go down and it will spray much better. A hair dryer or a carefully applied hot air gun will warm up box sections nicely too. You need to be all ready to go the moment you remove the sprayer from the water and go fast before it cools off again.

[@CampOutWest]

Thats 100% where i went wrong, i got it all covered but wasted quite alot of the product. Next time i'm gonna do it in the summer on a hot day.

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

Not being used to taking saunas, I may not be the best person to ask, but most people wear light footwear I would imagine. So, something friendly to the feet might be the best option. I’m not sure that would be gravel. Just a thought guys. I’m sure whatever you do choose will work out fine. I love the idea of the shipping containers. They make ideal living quarters. You could use some as rental pods. I believe once insulated they’d be very habitable. I’m so impressed with how much you have both achieved and learnt on the job. Well done guys. xxxx
