Man Builds Amazing DIY Wood Cabin in the Forest Start to Finish | by
In today's world, where environmental concerns loom large, sustainable living practices have become increasingly important. One such practice is the construction of off-grid cabins, which not only offer a retreat into nature but also embody principles of ecological responsibility.
Matthias, following his passion, is aware of this, and that is why he has set about building some cabins. In this case, we will see how he gets down to work with a very cheap cabin, which cost him around $350. By reusing some materials, he has managed to build a shelter to be able to devote himself to a bigger project: a cabin made of round logs.
If you want to be amazed by his skills, don't hesitate to watch this video. We have felt like making one too!

Thank you @QuantumTech for featuring me on your channel! Also, thanks guys for the nice comments! P.S. A lot of you are surprised that I managed to build it under $400. Maybe it's because in Europe, where I live, prices are lower than in the US. Also remember that I got the roof tiles and two large tanks for free, and I already own the cast iron stove. So I was able to build this cabin very very cheaply.
Critics warn against attempting DIY construction projects without proper expertise and planning.
You have good skills but there were mistakes made in this build!
Nice work brother. And I give you added respect for doin this on your own, and without using power tools! Must've been a lot of hand drilling. I wonder if you would consider doing an underground house on the next one. There is a brilliant book on it "the $50 and up underground house book" by Mike Oehler. He was part of the back-to land hippy movement and left San Francisco in the 1960's and got a place in Idaho. He had the idea to build underground to help him get through the cold winters. Anyways, Keep on building and creating!
Good job brother good Luck with New ideas
I am an Arab from Algeria, the largest country on the continent of Africa. I admire your work
That young man's parents must be very proud ( I know I would). I'm an old man, and I've been trying to get in shape to build my off the grid little place just like that size, but instead of getting in shape, I'm getting older lol, God bless that young man and who ever becomes his mate she's going to be very lucky.
Hello ❤❤❤
SO NICE!!! I LOVE that you DON'T have MUSIC!!! It's SOOO PEACEFUL!!!
Critics argue that the cost of materials alone for such a project would exceed $300, let alone labor.
Well, he obviously isn't paying anybody's wages.
No music, okay but the soundtrack is still irritating and not peaceful. It sounds more like an elf cobbler's work than a carpenters.
Hello ❤❤❤
von solchen Jugendlichen bräuchte die Welt mehr, schönes Video.
Nice
Милый парень у вас золотые руки всё умеете делать прекрасный талант волшебный здоровья вам счастья и всех земных благ.
Brilliant work, awesome video! Just one idea: Install door hinges to the cabin inside (and not to the outside, like here). So that the cabin door can't be opened with a screwdriver, in case it's locked.
Hello how are you ❤❤
This young man did a awesome job on this build , can’t wait to see his builds.
Your house build is amazing and you did it all by yourself without power tools or any help. :)
Классный получился домик.Вы умничка, далеко пойдете.Удачи вам в вашем нелегком труде
Hello how are you
Good work Matthias!!
Looks like the kid has it together! Great job!
Hello ❤❤❤
Nice shed. We've got one like this in our back garden where I keep the lawnmower.
Matthias I don’t know what to say, just say: you are a legend 😮😮😮
That's what you call a beautiful shed. Good job.

Nice garden retreat for the weekends

Brilliant woodworking skills, a JOB WELL DONE
Молодчина парнишка строит без дрели и шуруповёрта так сказать дедовским методом однозначно лайк и уважуха.
Hello ❤❤❤
ну, не без дрели, конечно - саморезы-то он ручной дрелью загоняет
Hello ❤️
The cool idea. One thing that needs to be improved though is the door latch. Someone could lock you in from the outside and you would not be able to get out
Some question the feasibility of sourcing all necessary materials and tools for construction with only $300.
A door latch 🙄🙄🙄🙄what a 🤡
Hello how are you ❤❤❤
Hello ❤❤❤
@@Yeuphuong204rompi le scatole sempre le stesse risposte 😂
It's very meticulous just how i like it. Great attention to detail, young man
Hello ❤❤❤
YOU HAVE A LOT OF SKILLS FOR A YOUNG MAN. GOOD WORK....
Why is the lock outside instead of inside.
It’s nice. I wish he could help me fix, the used mobile home I’m about to buy.
Hello farind 🌹 Good work
Hello ❤❤❤
I really enjoyed every minute and I'm an 84 yo lady ....
There's debate over whether the project's feasibility depends on access to free or heavily discounted materials.
Hello ❤❤❤
Hello ❤❤❤
❤ I love this, many clapping hands, your are awesome
Amazing very nice,, so Bountiful ❣️
Hello ❤❤❤
Great job I enjoyed it inspired me to start on 3 different places I have
Es todo un maestro le quedó muy bonita la cabaña felicidades ❤
Hello ❤❤
Pembuatan rumah yang nyaman damai, dibuat dengan cara sederhana , pastinya bakal betah yang ditempati nya, semoga saya bisa membuat dan meniru seperti itu ❤❤❤
Saya sangat setuju, saya juga terinspirasi dengan pembuatan rumah yang nyaman seperti itu, di hutan sejuk dan alami 🎉🎉
Many doubt the quality and durability of a wooden cabin built in the forest on such a tight budget.
Good nice, saya sangat stuju❤❤
❤❤ ekstra ordinary, perlu keahlian yang tidak semua orang bisa, its amazing ❤❤❤
Hello ❤❤❤
Fantastic! And he did it all in 29:47 mins.!
Lol's 😂
Can you imagine when he discovers cordless, will get it done in 15. Lol
😂😂😂
Maybe he’s on Adderall
😂😂😂, nice cabin❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Шуруповёрт огонь 👍
I've got all them old hand drills some were my dads and some were off a late friend who fitted out old boats and he left them to me . Back to the video the young man got skills.
Hello ❤❤❤
@@Yeuphuong204 hello from England
A very beautiful house. How I wish I could live like this with a wife, raise pets, and grow vegetables and fruits. It is sweeter than city life and technology. But it would have been better if I had made a wooden hut that could be dismantled and assembled, in order to travel and change the place every time. But your work is excellent👍🥰
Pretty intellent fellow . Nice job on the build. Just three hand tools, pretty impressive.
Extraordinario!!😱⭐🌟✨Me encantó!💕
There's skepticism about the safety standards and structural integrity of a cabin built with such limited resources.
Hello ❤❤❤😊😊
Fabuloso trabajo saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
Hello ❤❤❤
Te felicito . Digno de admirar
You did a great job.looks really relaxing .
Great video and great work on building this awesome cabin!
Good job God bless you 🙏
Well done ! It's so nice without the noise of electronic machines! All by hand ! There is only one detail missing, and not the least, a carbon monoxide detector at bed level. In such a small space, if you fall asleep with the stove on, you can die without your sleep, even if there is ventilation, it may not be sufficient. A detail that doesn't cost much money, but can save your life. It reminds me of when I built my camper van all by myself, without training, just with the habit of tinkering since I was little. I lived there for 1 year. But I had a jigsaw and a screwdriver, not 100% by hand! Everything was plywood. With a 300W monocrystalline solar panel alone, I was largely autonomous all year round. With catalysis heating on a gas bottle in winter, the best balance between economical and the least risk of poisoning. But also in terms of space, it's small, and it heats up very quickly and strongly. I always had my skylight slightly open, just above the bed, for ventilation. And I had a detector!!! It never rang. This cabin lacks good insulation, it's a shame to have such a beautiful wood stove and not to have planned something to keep the heat as much as possible. I would have added a solar panel, it doesn't cost very much, it's simple to install, and it's a shame to do without it. But I understand the minimalist luxury cabin side, rather than a small house to live in all year round. Water collectors are huge! He is sure to never run out of it for washing and washing dishes. There is a French expression that says: "Il vaut mieux un petit chez-soi plutôt qu'un grand chez les autres." ---> “It is better to have a small home than a big one in someone else’s.” To say that it is better to have a small house of your own, even if people find it very small, but to be proud to own it, instead of living in a big castle that does not belong to you. In France, there is a big trend, because the only habitat that can be installed on all types of land without needing permits or very long declarations is Yourth. A friend lives there with her child, it's very comfortable and sufficient, as close as possible to nature! It’s also very beautiful, both inside and outside !
Critics suggest that the $300 figure might be misleading, omitting additional expenses and resources required.
Isolation should be added totally agree with all you say
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hello ❤❤❤
O Canal faz aquele alarme... Uma cabana no mato, mas com tudo o que é de bom levado da Cidade.
Круть! Очень нравится домик!! Моя мечта! Только между потолком и кроватью, на мой взгляд, очень мало места..
Sehr schöne Arbeit Matthias.
Hello how are you ❤❤❤
❤ ngôi nhà của bạn rất máy mẻ ,bạn thật thông minh
İşte aradığım usta 👍
Se eu ganhasse uma casa com as peças prontinhas como estas, eu daria conta de montar. Ficou muito linda! Só precisa ter cuidado para não levar um susto e bater com a cabeça no teto!❤❤
Great Job congratulations 🎊 👏. I really enjoyed this, thank you for sharing 😂.
There's debate over the authenticity of the claims, with some suggesting that it's a marketing ploy.
Muy practico y sin complicaciones gracias por compartir ecxelente video saludis desdd chile.
Hello how are you ❤❤❤
I love it, excellent work👍👍
Very good, for an ambient temperature of + 20°C...
I believe my storage shed out back is bigger than this thing! 🙂
Preciosa casita, la quiero para mi!!!!
Excelente, muy bien felicitaciones. Lo único que colocaste el fregadero por debajo y va es por arriba. Por lo demás muy bueno el trabajo
Hello how are you ❤❤
I like watching it...its good and strong build
Hello ❤❤❤
@@Yeuphuong204 🥰
Нда, коловоротом крутить весело,)) я уже прикидываю картину, я пришол собирать шкаф, и кооворотом))) 😂😂
Have a great video ❤
У него в общем проект весьма странный! Зачем черепица то?)), вентиляция это круто, если сарай - решето. А если там зима снежная есть, то домик через пару лет уже накренится. Да, коловорот сильно ему запал😂 он явно брезгует электроинструментом
Мне вот не ясно почему не покрыл весь материал олифой или еще чем. Сгниет ведь за год, два. Фиг а ним с коловоротом, у каждого свой фетиш
Коловорот нужен для того чтобы собирать просмотры. Все видосы где делают дома или кабинки в лесу везде используется только ручной инструмент. Никаких дрелей. Такие правила
Hello how are you ❤❤❤
Home sweet Home:))) A good job man!
Hello how are you ❤❤❤
@@Yeuphuong204 hello man! everything's okay. I watched yesterday your movie. An interesting thing yeah man!
Leuke cabine ,mooi gedaan
Da wird so manch Zimmerhandhandwerker vor Neid erblassen!!! Sagenhaft mit wieviel Geschick und Handwekskunst er das macht!! Ohne Akkuschrauber oder Sonsitig Elektrowerkzeug!!! Respekt!!!
Hello ❤❤❤
Do the boards not let in a lot of wind as they are not caulked in between? Will you also put oil or varnish on the wood as the bare wood will rot quite easily.
Muito interessante Parabéns 🇧🇷 pelo trabalho 😊
Some argue that skilled labor and specialized equipment are necessary for constructing a cabin, beyond what $300 can cover.
Hello ❤❤❤
Pekerjaan yang bagus dan rapi, ide yang sangat kreatif
Many believe that the claim of building a fully equipped wooden cabin for $300 is exaggerated or deceptive.
Hello ❤❤❤
Congratulations! I’m very proud of you I can only imagine your father who helped you get your start. Great work 🎉
heating certainly won't be a problem! Fun project for a young person.
There's skepticism about the level of comfort and amenities achievable within the constraints of a $300 budget.
Hello ❤❤❤
Bangunan yang bagus🎉🎉❤
Mathias te felicito por esta gran cabaña que realizaste, te falta mostrar al público que sigue tu canal donde haz puesto el baño(WC)
Hello ❤❤❤❤
Amazing! 👍
So beautiful
Critics question the environmental impact of sourcing inexpensive materials for the construction of a wooden cabin.
Хороший домик для хоббитов 👍 детям очень понравится 👋👋👋
Ahhh tu eres millonario y vives en un palacio
@@lisacauteruccio1724 Vivo en Rusia, al lado de Finlandia, tenemos un clima frío. Se construyen casas de diseño similar para niños en jardines de infancia, llamadas terrazas de verano, donde en verano los niños juegan y guardan sus juguetes. Pero no tengo un palacio, sólo una casa de ladrillo común y corriente.
Are you going to put a filter on the downspout before it goes into the water storage bin?
❤👍 quá tuyệt vời
BRAVO. Magnifique ❤❤❤❤
Many point out the lack of transparency in the cost breakdown and sourcing of materials for the project.
Hello ❤❤❤❤
Awesome work. Question: how were the roof tiles attached? I see how they interlock, but how were they attached to the boards?
Some argue that DIY projects like this perpetuate unrealistic expectations and encourage unsafe practices.
tout simplement bravo Monsieur !
Hello ❤❤❤😊😊
Mantab
Amazing 🤩
За печкой сделай огнеупорный лист, чтобы не произошёл пожар. Поддержу тебя и твой канал. Думаю 🤔 будет интересно и дальше смотреть тебя.
Hello ❤❤❤
هذا الفيديو يحتاج مليون لايك ❤
אתה נירא כל כך צעיר!!!!😊מתי היספקתה לילמוד את כל העבודות המצוינות??!!😊 בראבו גדול על איכות העבודה😊😊❤
What kind of hand tool milled those slabs and studs. Made by hand means shaping the wood by HAND.
Great 👍
Que garoto inteligente? ❤❤❤❤
Hello how are you ❤❤❤❤

Great job and very enjoyable video as well. I am just wondering how rain water is made « drinkable » ? Are there any microfilters or UV filters? I am asking since it is illegal to dring rain water in France, because of pollution, germs and other things that it contains. Anyway, thanks again for this video.
Единственно:я бы щеколдочку на входной двери приделала бы с внешней стороны,чтобы дверь не распахивалась спонтанно,а шпингалетик-с внутренней,чтобы запираться в домике.А так вся работа этого молодого мастера вызывает у меня сплошное восхищение!
Dude, instead of using a hand drill why don't you invest in a battery operated drill. It would save time and save yourself arm pain later. It's a nice place but after your all through I bet your arms are tired and sore. Get yourself a battery operated drill. Also with a battery operated drill you can still use the drill for sockets and screwdriver adapters.
God Job 👌👌👌
Cool video. My only concern would be the spece between the stove and the wall. Little bit close for comfort
Good work ❣️⛵
Hello ❤❤❤❤
Bravo ❤
Nice work.
ว้าว.....สุดยอด❤❤❤
i like your works but only thing I wonder the way you installed your sink snd lock door
Critics highlight the importance of fact-checking and skepticism when evaluating DIY project claims.
Good luck 👍
Por dios hermosa quedó saludos de mza argentina
a great job,its very nice !
Many express concern about the potential legal and regulatory issues associated with constructing a cabin in the forest.
Great Jobs brother cabin❤❤❤❤❤❤
У нас в детстве "шалаш" был основательней. Этому пяточку зиму не пережить
I was thinking, he probably should have insulated it.
Hello ❤❤❤
Шпингалет со стороны улицы классная тема.. 😂😂 .. Если веселые малыши открыть дверь не смогут, то процентов на 99 ее закроют.. 😂
A hand saw and brace in bit you young man are impressive
Hello ❤❤❤
Bien al fin con herrsmientas manuales no eléctricos. Asi se hace ❤
Awsome job
