Building an out door kitchen from scratch. (Ep.16) Building a house by myself

In this video, I build a complete outdoor kitchen as cheaply as possible. It's easier than you think, just build the frame and roof and everything else follows.
The total price is only for the kitchen, not the deck. I have realized that we have cheap lumber here compared to the rest of the world, but this is what i used and paid.
8 meter post 70x70mm (3"by3") SEK 288
8 meters 170x45mm (7"by3") SEK 344
160 meters of fence wood 16x100mm SEK 1920
35 meters of deck wood 28x120mm SEK 420
20 meters 45x45mm (2"by2") SEK 240
Screw/hinge SEK 200
A total of SEK 3412 which is about 295euros

I have created detailed SketchUp CAD drawings and parts list of the house and furniture's available for a small fee. It took me a long time to make the drawings and if you buy them you support me and my house. read more here: mindsparx.org/s... , Thank you!
Updates. I update the CAD file every now and then and you who have already bought drawings can contact me with the same email you used when you bought the drawings and I will send them updated.

People donate to me to show their appreciation which is incredible. I have no expectations at all for any contributions but they are appreciated as it is expensive to build a house.

You are my favorite builder to watch. No hype, just explanations and doing; oh and the occasional humor 😁. Your work is wonderful. Thank you.

[@mindsparx1]

Thank you Margaret, you have been with me from the beginning 🙂

[@jlr1487]

An outdoor kitchen and deck, not only from recycled material, no budget, and designed as you go ! It looks amazing and cohesive ! You have so much talent and resolve, you are an inspiration to us lowly earthlings.

[@mindsparx1]

Thank you :)

[@sebione3576]

That is the best and most accurate description of the Midsommar celebration I've ever heard.

[@pewheretic7967]

Beautiful, organic build. I can see me having a cigar and lager while sitting there all day. Throw some fish in the pool and you have the makings of a great vacation.. Thanks for your time and sharing. Editing and filming isn't easy or necessarily fun.

[@mindsparx1]

Thank you, yes it takes long time to edit even if its as simple as i do it.

[@CherrieMcKenzie]

I really liked this build. I've already built an outdoor bar but now want to build an overhead shelter and you gave me ideas for getting it done well and cheaply. Thanks for sharing!!

[@rodolforodriguez7058]

You made it look so simple that I want to do it now! Thank you for your expertise! Great job, sir! You have another follower.

[@Ishikawa01]

I was browsing youtube because I am planning on building my own outdoor kitchen as well and this really inspired me. When I saw you throw away the manual for the BBQ I was like "nuh uh" and I was right 😁

[@richarddicktaylor219]

I can only dream of getting such good timber at that price in the UK. Terrific build & I like that you are very upfront about the budget & compromises. Probably my favourite KZbin build series of 2022/23

[@greglawrence742]

instructions piece....priceless!! love the build. thx for your time.

[@vincentwesolowski459]

Fantastic job on the deck and kitchen. I really like the stairs. That is plenty of extra seating. One mistake, you should have told your nephew, “Come on over here you are going to learn some skills.”

[@TheKobiDror]

Great craftsmanship. If you ever decide to switch to a gas grill you could easily hide the bottle in the cabinet to the left. And remember what separates the amateurs from the pros: read the instructions 😅😉 at least once.

[@user-proek-dacha]

I beat the landscape perfectly, it turned out cool👍👍👍

[@M4DHUSKY]

Simple,eficient and creative.Hats off

[@gergelyalmasi8778]

Another piece of gemstone. Thanks very much for sharing! The outdoor kitchen looks great, the grilled meals CRY for full bodied red wine :D :D :D

[@DR0NE_BEE]

Ive spent several hours watching episode 1 to 14 now...im friggin impressed. Holy S. 19:43 😂 made me chuckle.. 19:53 made med laugh out loud.

[@benfroehlich9128]

I don’t know why I was surprised for a split second when you got your faucet from IKEA. The build looks great.

[@ollebrandt]

We all love Byggmax!

[@mindsparx1]

Och jem & fix...

[@DAGenao]

You're a hard worker with an endless supply of money to buy all the materials and tools. Beautiful deck and BBQ area.

[@DIYeverythingz]

Oh yea this Z method for the door is great. I tried it and it made making the door a breeze

[@malydok]

No instruction manuals were harmed in the filming of this video. Haha, thanks for the laugh and great build as always.

Cool vrå att stoppa undan propanflaskan i hörnet vänster om grillen, ifall man inte föredrar kol, förstås...

Nu längtar man till sommaren!

[@JohnD-or9py]

Älskar dina videos !! Håller på och bygger själv ett project men tyvärr inte skills på samma nivå då är mekaniker o inte snickare haha så lär mig mycket från dem 🙏🙏.. Perfect att är på engelska då vi flyttade hit från Ontario o frugan inte kan Svenneska ännu.. problemet är bara att nu när hon sett hur ett proffs gör så är det svårare för mig att imponera med mina skills 😅😅 Ute köket blev kanon !!👍👍👍 Ha en underbar midsommar !! 🍻

[@mindsparx1]

Lycka till, gör som jag, börja bygga utan att tänka för mycket allt löser sig på vägen.

[@MrMae77]

Riktigt snyggt! 🙂

[@linnsoltwedel]

You could wrap this fridge too! :D

[@mindsparx1]

haha, maybe i will...

[@aaronwiley5436]

I love your work but was wondering can it be watched a slower pace?

[@emilwesterlund78]

Haha nära på att vinka på dem i poolen när du testa vart grillen skulle stå :) (Y)

Love your stuff! Where did you get those bar stools? Tjena från Övik! (Canadian living in the woods, in Övik.)

[@mindsparx1]

Övik, that's cold... I bought them on Vida XL

[@DAGenao]

You are incredible. How do you protect the wooden deck during the winter season?

[@olli8977]

You forget say about Finland mid summer party hehe

[@dra1469]

You going to put any sort of a polyurethane or lacquer of some sort on the bar top? I imagine the wood won’t fare well untreated against spilled drinks. Great job!! Keeping this as inspiration for myself!!

[@marquardtbd]

Throw the destructions away👍

[@williamchurch614]

I didn't see you tie-in the electrical and plumbing for the lights, fridge, and sink. How did you do that?

[@mindsparx1]

Yes the boring part... i will do that this week :)

[@aarontaylor1018]

Liked for beta testing the bar 😂

[@chris1.2]

wouldn't polycarbonate sheets be a disaster above a grill?

[@balliballieryufdf]

Did you use regular deck boards without spacing for the counters? I will shamelessly use this video as inspiration for my outdoor kitchen this summer 👍

[@balliballieryufdf]

Apologies, just noticed your material list. Cheers

[@installgentoo4362]

New video right at lunch time.

[@robinhedlund7843]

What dimensions did you use for the kitchen frame?

[@milanrdesign]

love it all, other than the AI voice.

[@Justathought-yz3up]

Support brackets, screws, nails, glue, etc... I am a builder and unless you live in a depressed area or materials were given to you...that price does not equal that material. Clean work though.

[@mindsparx1]

Hi, i have specified the costs above, you can veryfy it on swedish hardwear stores online.

[@wildbumbylee6731]

mindsparx have you thought of using Thompson Water Sealant on your beautiful outdoor wood projects? comes in many colors/stains🤔

[@mindsparx1]

I had a black sealant on the pool bar, it´s very nice but a lot of work and expensive, but i may do that later...

[@mari_023]

... "germanys oktoberfest" ... "twice as much booze" I guess if you use hard liquor instead of beer, that would work

[@mindsparx1]

Yeah, that is what it is, we start drinking hard liquor for lunch then keep on going till we pass out, weird tradition...

[@davidsmith6001]

Unless you did something I didn't see, I am not a fan of how you hung the stair stringers. A beam under the part at the deck with ground supports then it would be fine.

[@balooc2]

my manly intuition tells me i should by a plot of land and build my own house now! i looking at this thinking "how hard can it be". being a man is hard sometimes!

[@CLO668]

Don’t be too hard on yourself…this man is not normal.😂 He has an impressive skill set and he seems to always think outside the box…again, not normal 😂

Vart får du tag i så billigt virke?

Oh yeah super easy to build 🤨

[@k.beeler4240]

If you live in the U.S. don't use his deck building practices to build your deck. He is not in the U.S.A. There's not a codes enforcement officer in America that would sign off on this. I'm not sure I would want 30 to 40 people standing on this deck anyway... Just my opinion.

[@OscarM.94]

Affordable! 🤦🏻

Much more affordable than paying someone to do it
