    Overall this was a pretty cool build. I think my favourite is still his overkill doghouse, but this one was pretty great. Edit: except for just draining into a bucket.

      I've never been to Backwoods Timber, but my sister has for her live-edge dining table. And yeah, I agree that his doghouse was cooler. As you said, this was still pretty cool, but I don't know how...

      I've never been to Backwoods Timber, but my sister has for her live-edge dining table. And yeah, I agree that his doghouse was cooler. As you said, this was still pretty cool, but I don't know how livable it would be as a "tiny house" without a bathroom. It's more like a portable living room, as is. ;)

        I think that in the summer, as a man, you can do the tiny house thing with no bathroom without too much difficulty, but just letting the sink drain into the bucket is a straight up nope from me....

But he'll probably finish it off in a cool way and have a subsequent video from it in the future.

        I also hate pocked holes, but joinery isn't everyone's cup of tea and looking at the build, he might actually not have had a lot of other options.

        I feel like I'm being super critical though. Drew builds some awesome stuff, and this is awesome. Since he only lives about a half hour from here, I wonder if I'll see him, maybe at Hillside or something.

          It's a pretty recognizable van, so be sure to keep an eye out for it!
