The complete off grid sauna, bathhouse build from start to finish on my land in the Canadian wilderness. 12 months of Cali, my golden retriever dog, supervising and helping me build the cabin alone, mostly with traditional hand tools, dealing with harsh weather, biting insects and distracted by the incredible scenery and wildlife of Ontario, Canada.

Thousands of hours, Millions of calories, over 1 Billion neurons. Viewer Price: $0.00, Viewer value: Priceless. Thank you Shawn.
Did you see the million handpicked stones under the sauna? 😊
@@joona1432 wow!
Jim Coraci price 0$ ???
No... it cost a lot of money.
Not everything he has makes by himself.
A lot of things he have bye.
marculpa i wrote “viewer price”
Jim Coraci yes Ok. But nobody says - he must make Videos.
But alone I think, he is not alone.
Some cameras views has been make a second person.
He get a lot of money from advertising.
Alot of KRplus content I'll watch on my phone, this I pull up on the TV it's like a high quality television show
Cheers
Boa it really is a TV show. I was just telling my wife this (she doesn't watch btw). I don't watch "regular" broadcast/cable TV and haven't for many years now. This is really a "TV" series. Weekly. Sort of like what TV would be in an hypothetical better world. A parallel universe if you will to our own. Man! I love this Canadian Aries!
I couldn’t agree more! 👍🏻
Right? I look so forward to watching this! It's therapeutic!😊🌲
Same
It's like a high quality television show without the bullshit, yeah.
Who else gets to smile every time he throws the dog his toy
The dog is alone. Dogs are living in packs normally. This dog would play with other dogs in a pack.
@@1calua okay?
@@1calua nobody asked
@@JK0712 maybe the dog
Tf are y'all talking about, the man is literally making a cabin not playing with his dog, and his dog is clearly happy so stfu no one asked
대단하십니다 구독했습니다 너무 잘 봤습니다
This is what a real man looks like
Another guy from Finland gives his approval! That's a proper sauna! 🇫🇮 Nice job!
I’m 75 and I really enjoy watching this fellow. It is people like this that created this country. Not the takers, the doers.
im 67 sure wish i had seen this when i was younger i can still dream
⚠️ Warning ⚠️ : The whole video is Satisfying 🔥🔥🔥
A man doing what real men do, doggie wagging it's tail, natural elements, this was an excellent movie.
Each time i've watched some of your videos, it gives me will to go outside...rain or shine and find something to do around the house. You are awsome sir.
Drago mi je da ima Hrvata koji gledaju ovakve videozapise, al nemoj krenut po gradu drva cjepat sad

The door with bark clothing just blew me away. What a genius hacker.
Love how your dog tries to catch the wood chipping away 😄
@synchromorph that's why humans are the masters. We can carry the biggest sticks
@@FridgidIdgit true fact right there
@@FridgidIdgit ķ
Gostei muito você in sinal bem direitinho, passo a passo.
You're amazing!!!! .... Your wife and daughters are so Blessed to have such a motivated, talented vizionary of a Dad. Such a beautiful gift God has given you! Big big hugs!
You remind me to dare to take one step at a time, have a good plan, be persistent and patient to finally be able to see the final result - good work!
Exactly
Hello, I am Salem from the desert of Wadi Rum, Jordan. I live in a desert and Bedouin life is welcome to everyone♥️🇯🇴💐👋🏼
You’ve built you own world. Nature. Peaceful. What an accomplishment.
Deep down this is what all men just want to do, to be left alone working on their projects. And well, watch other men work on theirs. Great cabin!
Not just men, women to like to be alone also.
@@vs3482 doubt tht
V S As a woman, can confirm.
@@tam5065 Some of us don't want to just watch, we want to do it too lol. Well me anyway
@@vs3482 Absolutely. My solitude is richness. 💙
As a guy from Finland, i can appreciate this alot.
as a guy i can appreciate this a lot.
@@mst3ksanta in finland we have more saunas than cars
Sama here, from land log saunas.
Jaeger233 such lovely country(no sarcasm).
Have a nice evening Finland
Yes people from other countries can't like this as much as you . Lol
This man has patience holy fuck. I love that dog too what a hard worker
steady pace
Your dog saved my day
Man: Throws literally anything.
Doggo: TARGET ACQUIRED
Man..so far from a doggo
right,and i say if u throw a ball and your dog brings back a cold beer keep the dog and get some more balls
Bravo six, going bark
Me and the wife just sat and watched this start to finish,neither of us even got up to make a cuppa and I've just realised it was nearly 2 hours. This guy is amazing.
Lol , you must be British. I too was spellbound. Take care
@@suzannetodaro5494 we are indeed lol cuppa gave me away
@@alexwallace866 It sure did but so am I, but I prefer coffee in the AM and water in the afternoon lol. Take care keep watching
Me and my wife just sat in the sauna for 2h :D
Stopped in for 5 minutes and 2 hours later I'm disappointed it's ending! Amazing craftsmanship and astounding work, the hammered copper put it over the top, what doesn't this man do? Wow doesn't do it justice.
Most talented man in Canadian Woods!
Simple the best Outdoor man,&cabin worker.!
When you look up ‘dedication’ in the dictionary, a picture of Shawn pops up! 💪🏼 💛
Is there anyone else like Shawn out there?
This place will for sure become a walk around museum in about 150 years
I love that golden oh my gosh I wanna bring my golden around the woods like this and cuddle with her
Survival skills. Perfect man. His wife must be so proud and happy.
That dog is living with him alone from so many years. Yet never complained. All it wants is food and love.
your dog is always emotional, instead of sitting and watching, she joins in
THIS IS INCREDIBLE......THE STRENGTH, PATIENCE, RESILIENCE......THIS MAN HAS REALDETERMINATION AND PASSION FOR THIS SKILL......I'M IMPRESSED.....!!! THE LORD LOVES A WORKING MAN. 🌹
That dog just loves being next to you.
My husband and I have been watching for several years. It feels like we are also at the cabin while watching your videos which makes me feel very happy and peaceful. We have been inspired and have plans to move to our cabin in Northern Wisconsin within two years! We are very excited!! Thank you for all your hard work and long hours making these videos. I know they bring smiles to many thousands of people! God bless you and your family!😊
Me and my hubby are in the exact same situation. I have him addicted to My self reliance. lol We have a north house now that is modern but we are scouting in Necedah for a good plot of land to get underway with our cabin. I have been searching the refuge surrounding area hoping to get adjacent so I will have all vegetation and no neighbors along the property. It is beautiful up there. We are hoping to go in Spring even if we have to go to our north house till we find the right piece of land. :) Good luck to you guys! I know Sean's videos have inspired us to.
Kenneth Williams go judge yourself.
@@kennethwilliams1563 Omg lol you are criticizing a happy and healthy person's life like a troll. That would indicate that perhaps you are not happy in yours. Sorry for it, I just find your attack strange.
A strong man with a gentle touch. I watch your videos instead of crocheting 🧶 ha ha. I am 70 years old and my daddy would have loved your videos. Thanks.
Mine, too.
that happy dog is the best
Having a cabin, is a good thing.
Everytime when Cali comes into the picture with her red toy, I am starting to laugh. I love this dog, never getting tired to ask you for a throw and ever so often for a real cuddle.
Cali is making me laugh. She just begs for you to throw her toy. Sweet girl. 🐶
She's cute and really well behaved but she's also kind of simpleminded. How many times do you have to fetch a red can before you realize it's a pointless endeavor? I guess she really doesn't have much else better to do.
Junk Name she is a golden retriever. That’s solid breeding in retrieving. That’s all she wants to do for fun. It’s adorable.
Junk Name, she seems pretty intelligent to me, she extremely active, knows what she likes. She doesn’t run away, she stays close at hand, and behaves very well. Most dumb a$$ dogs will run away as soon as you open the door, they don’t even know where they live. I’d take her any day of the week!
@@junkname9983 You vs Cali, I got $20 on the Retriever when it comes to smarts.
I wonder if she thinks she's doing an important job or just wants to play? Either way she is adorable!
I am totally ADDICTED to these videos.. Thank you, your an AMAZING MAN!! And I live your dog.. She's Adorable!!
夢が現実に変わるのを見て、貴方の素晴らしさ、発想力の豊かさ、Qualityの高さ全て最高です。永久保存版です。世の中すごい人が本当にいるんだね。
First ever thought after watching the complete video... "What a happy dog"
Dogs r many but few r only which r happy in Man's Beastly kingdom
Dogs r many but few r only which r happy in Man's Beastly kingdom
I have watched for over a year now the progress of you ‘homestead’ and your craftsmanship. There is something very satisfying about watching someone craft something with their hands....and in the end stand back and have something to show for it. Well done!! And well done Cali, for lending your support to dad!! 😉
An actual sauna, as a Finnish person this warms my heart and raises so many memories of great summers next to lakes with similar saunas. Excellent work.
The reason why I like Shawn James is because he always thinks ahead before he does something. He is a legend!!
Good morning, perfect, just sitting down with a coffee !
Me too :). Good morning
You know what I see here? Sheer determination and knowledge. This guy is doing exactly what out forefathers did before us.
Yes, but this guy has modern tools.
@@debbielasalle5472 yes, but still he chooses to do It himself instead of paying someone to do It for him. Respect for that.
@@WhyNot-cg2bi actually he's married. His wife accompanies him sometimes
@@debbielasalle5472 ?
Thank You for showing me and my family how to survive! LORD/Jesus Bless You!!1
Wish I could have land/resources to do this for myself
I hope this guy knows how lucky he is
Regardless of the negative comments Shawn is one of the best. Negative comments not wanted in his videos.
All of the channels like this need to get together and make a village.
uhm....no because some youtuber would build his cabin out of Legos!
Doggo just does all the work
1 man, and his dog. Having comfort and relaxation :)
The dog is doing all the hard work I see
I love the Finnish products you got there at the end in the Sauna. Reminds me of home.
adlikda strlinfza I’m not familiar with Finnish products, what are they in this video?
@@Jack-hu7cb Before 1:52:00 there was some scents you can use to make your löyly smell different. (Please google translate löyly from finnish.) I'll update this if I spot anything else. And there was a white thingy thing I don't know the purpose of that had the word "Halko" on it, so I suspect that would be finnish aswell. I guarrantee on that. The Halko thing was shown at around 20:00 to 1:30:00. The kiuas could be finnish aswell but... that's always a wild guess when you can't see any identifying marks of the maker.
@@marialindell9874 u forget Koskenkorva bottles : D
@@kronos5759 Oh! I didn't notice any! Thanks!
@@marialindell9874 No problem :=)
I love watching you build this
This man is so talented to see him building his sauna and still have time to play with his furbaby. I would love to live out there. Beautiful!!!
I’m 34. Raised in country life. This kind of life is basically my retirement goal. Just walk into the woods and enjoy the life.
Yeah man mine too. Its more like a heavan.
Yes please
Fire your landlord and you can retire now!
Shawn, I am in constant amazement as I watch each and every video of yours. I am Disabled and unable to get around and through your videos, I can see and feel the joy of what you do. Thank you and GOD Bless. ;-)
as am i
Shawn, I credit your show with helping me maintain my sanity in this screwed-up world we live in.
You r not alone, may the dog be with u 🐶
I feel spoiled with a 2hr long video! Cheers Shawn! Have a great weekend everyone!
Long live,your talent is superb,i wish you all,all the best worldwide.
amazed by your dedication sir
Thank you for another video Shawn, highlight of my week!
This dude is the definition of bad ass. Probably spent more on his camera setup then on building an entire house, sauna etc. I can dig it!
🚫 This guy blows my mind!!
Mad skills. I wish I could send over my son's to see that they don't really know what hard work is. They probably couldn't stay up with this guy.
🤭🤭
You are so gifted! Master Craftsman right there
I’ve been watching you build this for the last year, but it’s nice to see it in one go. Cali always steals the show. Keep them coming!
I wish I could sit and watch the whole thing. Off to work though. Catch the rest tonight. Looking forward to it. Thank you Sir
That's a real man if I have ever seen one.
The star 🌟of this show is the dog 🐕everything the guy does is easy if it wasn't for the dog nothing would get done think about that 😀😉😄👍
And through it all faithful Cali was there to help 😁
These videos are therapeutic ! I love this channel and I love Cali. She is a star🙂 Thanks so much for sharing whit us. Happy weekend everyone !
It’s just a dog😐
So true
I couldn't help but subscribe as soon as I saw that door. Wow.
I am in awe watching these videos!
What incredible skill!! Thank you again for letting us all come along on your journey. I was surprised as to how long the sauna took to build. Forgot that you started it last fall. The final product is just as amazing as all of the other structures on the homestead. Thanks Shawn.
Impressionnant ! Shawn, vous êtes de plus en plus précis, efficace, professionnel. Bravo.
Kind time of day from Lithuania, The nature is very beautiful, you can watch endlessly 👌👌
Love from Sweden you make my day better love your videos ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Watching this is pure meditation
Right
Beyond incredible! My jealousy of his skills is immeasurable! Also...that is the happiest dog on the planet.
She really is.
Genial wS der mann alleine schaffd und kochd wie ein gurmet alle achtung bravo viele tolle häuserkompliment grüsse von swizerland
you and my husband are very SUPER
It’s great to be back in the self reliance loop.
Watching this was the most relaxing thing I've done all week.
Me too!😂
This is what life was like before TV, telephone, the internet and movies. Our entertainment were our animals, fishing, camping or simply playing in the woods. Visiting family weekly and going to church on Sundays. Now that’s really living. Your videos have taken me back in time when life was so much easier and laid back even though you worked your fanny off. God Bless all your efforts❤️
07:28 doggy brings water to you. Aweeeee 🥺.
Ghosh,..the amount of work you have put into everything, it is absolutely astonishing.
I'm so impressed by how you did everything single handedly.
Truly amazing..
And honestly its truly a testament to anyone can do anything they want if they want it bad enough..
Well Done !!
Keep sharing ...
its honestly a blessen & a lesson to everyone who watches.
I JUST WANNA SAY YOUR CONTENT IS HEALING AND YOUR DOG IS CUTE.
Why are you yelling?
Yeah dude 😍
Can't imagine a happier dog. She must love this outdoor life.
We are very excited and really like your creative ideas, made it enjoyable to watch and keep watching, hope you continue this great idea forever.
3.8 million views 😱
This is so relaxing to watch 🥱. I haven't watched TV for almost 3 years. I'd rather watch videos just like these. I wish I could be there to help.
he's built a whole neighbourhood by now surely
Superman lives.
Just look at that beautiful stained glass window in your sauna door! Simular to the one you installed in the bathroom door of your new cabin.
I've been waiting for this ever since you've started months back
Me too, it was fun to look back over the last year as I edited it. Thanks
I love this video series!
I am only at 24:00 and I am amazed ! How can one man do what you do, Shawn ? It's beyond belief. You are a hero!
He n Cali r heroes .U summed up very well
The dogs always bring her toy😆😊
The MOST helpful puppy 🥰 chasing after the wood chips was the cutest
Shawn is finally a craftsman who also brings something to an end. And professionally! Nice one
