Building an Outhouse is the number one priority for any new homestead. In this video my brother Ryan and I build an outhouse at my remote off grid property in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We're using rough sawn lumber bought from the Amish, and minimal tools, and digging the hole by hand, with a shovel.

My Grampa told me one time he was pulling up his pants in the outhouse when 5 dollars fell out of his pocket and fell through the hole. He reached in his pocket and pulled out a hundred dollar bill and threw it into the hole. I asked him why he did that. He said, “ You think I’m going down there for a lousy five dollars?”

Definitely! My first house was built in 1956 the sub floor was dimensional lumber laid on a bias. The roof decking was dimensional lumber too. That old house was definitely built to withstand time. I question how long the glue will last in the osb of my newer home. Since I already had to replace one wall section due to water damage I’m thinking the old way was way better.

Hi guys. I've built a couple outhouses so far. The first one was 4'x8' so there was room for storing tools. I added a small triple-track storm window on the wall opposite the seat. I also added an attic turbine ventilator to the back wall near the roof and above the seat. I ran some 5" dryer hose down the outside wall to a hole under the seat. As long as you get enough wind to turn the turbine, air will flow down under the seat and out by the roof. After one summer of use, you'll be really glad you added this!

I like the idea that it's on a sled. You can move it to a new location when the old hole is full. Just six feet forward and there's another ten years of happy poopin'! The dirt out of the new hole covers the old one in. Very cool. Tx for sharing.

Cool video and nice job. When I was a kid my dad built a new outhouse because the old one was falling apart. We lived in the mountains and didn;t have a bathroom. Anyway, he built one to last forever. He built it out of cinder blocks. It was a thing of beauty. He also ran electricity to it for a light and a heater for those winter nights. All mom had to do was flip a switch on the back porch to light it up and heat it before she had to make the trek over. Reading material was the Sears catalog. :-)

The more complicated the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain - Scotty. Wish I had more sand than clay in my soil. The dig would be easier. Next time I shall incorporate some of your techniques. Mine is still Old School, I had a friend who used to have a heat lamp and he would plug it in to warm the seat before he headed out. MISS YOU SHERMAN! I like the Dick Pronecke style of narration. I like having the porch out front, it is a convenience. I used an old trailer house door with the inset windows and frame. It was free. Though next time I will want to use the see-through roof panels. The foam seat is an excellent improvement. You might consider a vent pipe to send the odors on their way. I like the time I spend with my brothers and even my sisters.

GREAT VIDEO AND JOB Y'ALL DID! My father and I are going to wall up an old outhouse on the our property. The metal toilet is mounted on concrete. This was an old outhouse from a sawmill from the late 1800's. Just have to dig it out and build the outhouse walls. The way you built yours is almost like what we were planning to do.

Just loving the videos Dave. I have seen a lot of videos here on KZbin and none compare to yours. So enjoyable. Love your easy and relaxed style of build and ethos, and speaking as a Carpenter from a family of Carpenters, I really love how you have a real natural love and respect for the wood that you use. That’s something special in itself.

That looks great -- I like the polycarbonate roof! You probably already know this, but since I didn't hear it mentioned, if you keep a bucket of half-rotted leaves, or fine sawdust, or peat moss, in the outhouse, and dump in a good scoop after each use, there will be much less odor and a lot less flies. It will fill up a little faster, probably, but worth it to keep the smell and the flies down!

When it fills up, do you just dig another hole and move it over? Or do you put something in it to break it down?

I've read that if you use some ash from your fire pit or fire place, it helps with the decomposition and odor. Just 1 thing, make sure that the embers are out before pitting it down the hole! Also, installing a pipe from just below the seat to up above the roof, removes gasses from inside. Fantastic build! Love the rough lumber choice.

I love the way you work. So much economy, functionality and elegance in what you build. Here in Scotland (UK) timber prices are insane too. Increase of 100% in 12 months for rough, off-saw fencing timber and plywood is on an upward escalator every month. I'm building an outhouse and small cabin on our wee patch of forest. Your work is inspiring, thanks.
