What is your dream cabin?
What does it entail?
What do you need in it?
And by doing those things,
you are entered to win in a drawing for this cool,
maybe I'll do two of them,
tiny home, simple shelter from Lloyd Kahn.
This is a promo book he released a ways back.
You can't buy this one.
It's an actual book, like there's real print in it.
You can read it with a magnifying glass.
A tiny, tiny book on tiny houses.
And I front a band by the name of Inverter.
A lot of people don't know that.
Metal band, super loud, scary, quirky, weird.
You want, not if you want, I will give you it.
Even if you don't want it,
you'll get a copy of the new album,
album number three from us, Inverter Boston and Facebook.
Just do those things I said.
Do those things I said and you're entered to win.
That simple.
The coolest part of this cabin here,
we built the tiny house summer camp
is that it's pretty hidden.
We don't show people this one till day two
on the tours of all the trails here.
Cause it's a little bit of hiking,
a little bit of a hike in the woods.
And it's right now,
probably aside from the giant robot tree house,
we have my favorite cabin on the premises.
Two years ago, this was pre the COVID launch year.
We walked in that cabin as well.
You can see a couple of cabins we passed
as we hiked back in the woods.
Behind me in a second, an A-frame we built years ago.
This cabin here you're about to see
was built partly designed by myself.
Built during the workshop with students.
Chris Strathy, the capable carpenter.
Shout to him, good friend of mine.
Subscribe to his channel, The Capable Carpenter
down in the links below.
He helped with this as well.
Dude's a workhorse.
Love the guy.
And a bunch of others.
So it's been a lot of fun.
I want to show you what lies down this long, long trail.
So for a while you don't see it
till you come around this corner.
Through all these fern groves
we've been walking through a swamp.
A lot of hill work.
And over this little hillock here,
the cabin starts to emerge.
So to reiterate, with a whole group of students
here is one of the things we've worked on
in Tiny House Summer Camp this year and two years ago.
With the owners doing an additional ton of work.
Chris and Pam.
What a spot.
Deck was put in more recently.
Yep, but it's just slightly smaller
than the one that's usually here.
And then still, I think we're at probably about 50%
after using it for three nights.
These LED lights, right?
The LED lights draw nothing.
So it's really just charging the power tools
that you're really gonna pull, you know,
pull from it, so.
Yeah.
And the dishwasher.
Right, right, right.
Well, next time we come up
we're probably gonna sit up the avenue.
Here's a repurposed door.
Did I give you guys this door?
Yeah.
Okay.
Everyone was asking me what was up with it.
And I'm like, hey man, I don't know.
It's probably a closet door.
I remember this was like in the 1800s,
that doorknob's so awesome.
Yeah, that doorknob's amazing.
Inside, one of the, oops.
As I bump into things,
one of the cooler wood stoves I've seen, nautical style.
As you hear in the background,
all the windows were free from a house
in the Holyoke area.
These are some of those flip open salvage windows
I teach people to build.
There's a video on that from Australia we did,
but we did these at camp a lot.
They have exceptional taste in books.
Three books I've written.
What's cool about this couch here is two armchairs
that cut the center arm,
or I think it was falling off of that,
and built a mini loveseat in this tiny space.
Jackery solar, runs a couple lights in here,
a solar setup.
They're packing up to get out of here.
Kind of a little kitchen type area.
Flip open, tough text window.
It's almost like a bar counter.
And overall, it is eight by 12, that's it.
What makes it feel a lot bigger
is the fact that it's about 12 feet tall in here.
Again, all free windows, sleep loft up there.
The cabin's name.
