Building A MASSIVE Bed Alone In The Log Cabin

In this video I finally make a real bed for the log cabin! The best feeling in the world to finally sleep in a quality bed in the log cabin. I got the wonderful opportunity to visit Sandra from Swedish Wool Mattress Company in this video. She handcrafts mattresses made from natural materials. Check out her website: www.swedishwoo...
Thank you to "Hushållningssällskapet Halland" who did the sheep shearing and let me use their video footage.

I am selling my own handmade wooden products!!
My website: www.grankvist-outdoors.com
I hand-craft my own cutting boards in the log cabin. I can only make a few at a time, so you have to be first to buy one when a new batch is released. Every board is signed by hand with its own unique number, representing how every cutting board is unique. They are made from hard nordic oak, making them extremely durable, holding up for a lifetime of abuse. Instead of having a plastic cutting board that really should be thrown away after 2 years.
I was told that my dream of selling handmade products wouldn’t work in today's world where everything is mass produced. I want to prove them wrong. My goal is to expand into other handmade products. Making a series of lifetime quality handmade goods. Breaking free from mass production, supporting our environment.

Finally I can sleep in a quality bed in the log cabin! The best feeling in the world! This bed is 100% made from natural materials. I didn't want to stop with only making my own bed frame and then just buy a plastic foam mattress and bedding. So I got the pleasure of visiting one of the rare people here in Sweden who still know the craft of handmade mattresses. Sandra makes and sells her own mattresses from Swedish wool! Read about the overwhelming upsides to wool on her website: www.swedishwoolmattresscompany.se/ Everything down to the threads in the stitches are handmade from natural hemp thread! I believe that she now sells the exact same bedding that she made for me. The pillows and blanket are all made from wool, which is surprisingly very comfortable now in the summer.

I have enjoyed watching every one of your videos from the very first day of clearing and cutting logs. I have saved your information and I am still going to buy two of your cutting boards. I would love to stay at a place like you have, so I can enjoy those moments of solitude and nature. So I enjoy that part of your life that I can watch and enjoy. It is the first time that I have seen your video go fast forward lol. But I can understand why with the fixing and refixing to fit each part of the bed just right. You are a true craftsman in every sense of the word. My grandfather's ancestors came from your area of the world. There are times that I wish that I could experience a part of their lives. I can see some through you and what you have been doing these past few years. The men and women back then had to be a strong bunch of folks. Have you considered having some stock to take care of you for food and such? How long do you stay in this cabin within one year?
