This is a 15 min version of the 2 hour long video "One Year Alone In The Forest of Sweden | Building Log Cabin like our Forefathers"
• One Year Alone In The ...
If you have already seen the 2 hour video, I understand if you don't want to see this. There will be a new episode soon, where I work on the last logs for the roof. This video was just made as a front page video for my channel, if you are new and need a quick catch up.
In the video I spent 500 days alone in the forest working on the log cabin. Most nights I slept on my grandparents homestead.

My Story:
When I was 18 years old I ventured out alone with only a backpack full of simple hand tools to actualize my dream. Build my own traditional off grid log cabin by hand from the materials of the Swedish wilderness. Just like our Forefathers did.
I had no previous experience in building, gathering materials or filming. So I started studying myself the old arts and learning from my grandfather and mentor Åke Nilsson. I began to cut down trees and film with my phone, learning as I go. I filmed everything myself and edited this video so you can follow my journey and hopefully learn as I do.
This is: Minecraft in Real Life
This is a 15 min version of the 2 hour video, for those who are new and need a quick catch up. New episode will be released soon, where I build the last logs for the roof!!
In the video I spent roughly 500 days alone in the forest working on the log cabin. Most nights I slept on my grandparents homestead.

If you want to check out a fun interview I did with Swedish TV: www.tv4play.se/program/nyhetsmorgon/erik-bygger-en-timmerstuga-f%C3%B6r-hand/13317782
Hej Erik! Känner du igen mitt namn?
1:14 potatoes be like
it would be easier if you had a second person, could i fly out and help you? love your stuff btw!
Greetings from France, I wonder how you handle living alone ? I guess you keep your head busy but must be tough do ?
500 days !
And you still not reach the half of the cabin...
Let's be honest, you weren't alone; you had a sweet little hund with you!
Hund haha.
@@Nekotaku_TV He is german! :) But its not his dog. Can see it in the 2hours vid.

It is amazing how 1 and a half years can be summarized in 15 minutes.
It is just as amazing how I have stuck around for that time, and never gotten bored.
same
Well he also got a 2 hour video which is more in depth
Pov: you came from “one year alone in the forest of Sweden”
Tbh no. I came from subs way in the beginning
@@NakNakPrime oh fr nice
No le sabes
The dream of every single person who is watching this video
Could be true. Same here. I am german and that is definitly the best you can make actually in gerMoney. Go out! We are stateless..
Puppet ToNice - Not mine, please speak only for yourself...and I have watched every video on this channel. I admire what this guy has done. But 500 days alone in the wilderness? I would go nuts.
@@McRocket I would love it. I will fell so creative, a lot of ideas to do , idk how to explain it but it will be a dream leaving this cellphone for a while because I finally got something better to do than just watching RUclips etc
No, I don't want to cut down trees in the woods just to make myself a shit hut. The trees are not mine, why the hell cut them like a fool? To receive views on youtube?
@@crvlad Why are you here watching?
Anyone else impressed by how accurate his axe work is?
Moi il m'impressionne beaucoup par son assurance il sait où il vas surtout sa précision dans ces coupes c'est incroyable il est très cartésien maîtrise de lui même on dirait qu'il fait tout d'un seul coup
Super impressed!!
It's a diamond axe
He must have had a lot of practice with axe before he even thought about his log cabin and started cutting down trees. It takes time, I suppose. In any case, being alone there and wounding himself by accident is no laughing matter.
I just wonder what kind of trees he uses? They are all so straight. Beech?
No wonder why erik is named ”grankvist” as last name. He isn’t born in the woods, the woods was born out of him.
Grankvist Is Swedish Surname.
It no doubt makes your grandfather's day when he sees you wearing his former jacket. I hope you have cabin covered for winter.
Anyone noticed he's significantly built muscle over these 500 days? :D
This is the best way, building muscles naturally while doing useful things👍👍👍👍
Legit, this mans got jacked
He goes from a capable guy to unapologetic machine rather quickly. If you watch the entire 2 hour video, you'll see him easily hauling giant logs he struggled to lift with leverage earlier in the year. It's pretty amazing.
Gone from weak boy to man
@@aaronjames3138 I don't think he was a weak boy to begin with haha, weak boys dont even start this stuff
I've never clicked so fast lol
Who destroyed the 69 likes??!
@@nicht_beni2270 😑
You got skills dude! I never realized just how much went into making a log cabin and the fact you use no power tools makes it even more amazing. Keep up the good work man! Looking forward to next update!
He better get paid millions of this Axe producer. Best PR ever.
haha true, Gränsfors has already a good reputation for their handmade tools but this is real testing
At least they should sponsor him with a full range of axe types he need. :)
Really enjoying your videos and thank you for not adding music. It’s lovely hearing the work you do and the nature around you. Do you plant a tree for each tree you chop down?
Erik says in the interview that he hasn't even studied carpentry at school.
What interview?
@@Nekotaku_TV ´the swedish tv4 interview xD

In Swedish though, obviously :D
@@Novacification Thanks for the link! I don't speak a word of Swedish, but watching the vid gave me an update of Erik's progress, a real treat.
A fantastic achievement Erik. You deserve that coffee. Your wee Cavalier King Charles is beautiful.
Sigh, I could've been writing on my Destiel fanfiction but no, instead, I translated the Swedish News interview (I know squat about timber and logging vocabulary so some of it might be wrongly translated).
Newstudioman: Our reporter meets Erik Granquist today, out in the woods.
Newsstudiewoman: He has an exciting story to tell. After graduating high school, he took a sabbatical, moved out into the woods, and build a log cabin, all on his own, without prior knowledge.
Newstudioman: Cool. Gm Caroline.
Caroline: Gm, gm, Martin and Maria from a cold Sala. Minus 17 (1.4 F) out here in the darkest of woods, and we can hear the sound as he builds. Have you seen what an amazing cabin? It's Erik standing here, chopping away. There's wood chips everywhere. Gm!
Caroline: Gm. How you doing?
Erik: I'm doing good. I'm chopping the log so it matches the inclination on the roof.
Caroline: This house is amazing!
Erik: Thank you, hehe.
Caroline: You have to start from the beginning. This has been taking a while (building the cabin).
Erik: Yeah, it's been taking me over a year, almost two years.
Caroline: Because it was like this, that after you graduated, you took your backpack and went out in the woods?
Erik: Yeah, exactly. I took some (inaudible), I wanted to do something totally new.
Caroline: Come down, and we'll talk some more.
Caroline: Because you're not a trained carpenter then?
Erik: Yeah, exactly, I don't have any experience with that, shooting and using all the natural resources, I've had to learn that on my own.
Caroline: And how come you wanted to build an entire house?
Erik: I've had multiple inspirations. Grandpa and other enthusiasts, so it just happened.
Caroline: Your grandpa has helped you?
Erik: He's been my mentor. With a lot of knowledge, problem-solving, and the likes.
Caroline: You haven't used any tools, I see you're using the ax.
Erik: Only hand tools (unsure of translation) like they had in the 19th century, handsaw, and different axes.
Caroline: We have to check this out, it's amazing. So you have watched different instruction videos and then you've learned everything.
Erik: Exactly, and some books, there's a lot of information out there today but otherwise, I've just learned by trying it out for myself.
Caroline: Wow, what has been most difficult?
Erik: To prepare all the logs, there are a few. Not so many trees but it takes quite a while to chop down the trees. I've taken it from the nearby area.
Caroline: How many trees have you used, approximately?
Erik: Eh, maybe forty, fifty. And then it's eighty logs. All logs are not here, there are some over there, smaller ones, that you can use for future projects.
Caroline: How did you choose this location?
Erik: This was the most accessible location. You had the best resources here, wood-wise. And the ground was even. You have to build where you can.
Caroline: And this has taken a year and a half?
Erik: Yeah, approximately.
Caroline: And how far along are you? We can see that you have some left to do on the roof; when would you say you're done?
Erik: It's hard to say. In the beginning, I thought it would take a year. That was wrong. It takes longer than you think but hopefully I can sleep in here, in the warmth, this year.
Caroline: You can't do that yet?
Erik: Yeah, exactly, I have to brick (to mortar) an open fire and chimney so I can make a fire and beds and floors and such.
Caroline: Can we go inside and see how it looks like?
Erik: Sure, we can do that. This is a temporary staircase and then there'll be a porch here in the front.
Caroline: A porch here?
Erik: Yeah, exactly. (width) more than one meter (3.2 feet)and then stairs. So this is just temporary so you can get inside. And then this blanket.
Caroline: A temporary door.
Erik: Yeah, exactly.
Caroline: Alice goes inside too.
Erik: Yes, this is Alice. She's been along on this adventure.
Caroline: Wow. There's, there are things to do in here.
Erik: Yeah exactly. So this is just temporary, so you can walk in here. And the isolation is here, and leftover timber.
Caroline: How much has grandpa been here to help?
Erik: He's been here but he can't really help that much. But he's been a great help mentally with problem-solving. We've come across a few issues, so he's been figuring out solutions to simple problems.
Caroline: Is there something inside, that we can do today?
Erik: Inside, no? First, I have to lay the roof, that's a priority, then it's the floors.
Caroline: I'll come inside, just to look. Maybe you can start decorating mentally. So, we'll dig into that roof, when we come back?
Erik: Yeah, we can do that.
Caroline: Maybe I'll find an ax and will help you with this...we'll see how it goes.
Newstudiowoman: Caro is very eager to help.
Commercial
Newsstudioeman: Caro, how's it going?
Caroline: Now we're back in this amazing cabin, I'm so impressed, Erik. I'm thinking that you can tell us what kind of tools you've picked.
Erik: This is a timber ax, so I've used this to do the cornices and corner posts on the timber, and it's the corners so they fit together. And then I've used a shekel ax, you use that to make the long pulls (smoothening out on the long sides) on the timber so they fit lengthwise, quite simply so it keeps sealed. And then I've sealed it with moss, everything is from around here.
Caroline: This ax seems to be very old, it looks like one from the Viking era.
Erik: Yes, no, maybe not the Viking era.
Caroline: And this one?
Erik: That's a bark knife, I've removed the bark from all the logs with that knife.
Caroline: Aha, really, really nice. But what are your plans for inside, have you started to think about the furniture mentally?
Erik: I've thought about it. Maybe a bed here (points at the wall) and a table here by the window. And then, and an open fireplace that I'll lay here behind you.
Caroline: Here the fireplace will be.
Erik: Precisely. Here you can make a fire and cook food and I'll brick a chimney that goes straight up and through the roof.
Caroline: Wow, so nice. I read an article about you and there I read, that the reason you wanted to do something like this was that you wanted to show that your generation isn't so lazy like some people may think.
Erik: Maybe.. partially that, yes. You want to show them it's doable.
Caroline: Nothing is impossible.
Erik: Yeah, exactly. And to show them that you don't need an education, you can learn by yourself. You can do anything if you take time for it. That's what my grandpa taught me.
Caroline: You said you were gonna continue on the roof, what do you say? Shall we continue?
Erik: Yeah, we can do that.
Caroline: So the plan is that you'll live here by yourself when it's done.
Erik: Part-time, yes. I'm gonna continue to study, so then I'll live on campus. But I'll rent it out to companies and for events and hunting and forest baths.
Caroline: you go up first, otherwise I'll kill myself.
Erik: You have to climb a bit. You wanna try and chop some?
Caroline: God, how will I get up here? God, Ima kill myself. You know what, I'll leave the chopping to you. An ax and ice are not so good for Caroline.
Erik: Yeah, one must be careful.
Caroline: You chop and I'll look from the ground. Very well done.
Nice job my friend. Thank you, good to have it translated to English. 👍
Oh thanks!!!!!!!!. From Mexico.
Thank You for translating.
@@tracerloenan8020 You're very welcome.
Thank you for this!! Do we know if Erik is going to school while building?
Already watched the entire 2 hours but this was a nice recap. There is a huge appreciation loss for all the effort though when just cut together like this
Just found your channel Erik, love it! Let me know if you ever want/need a hand 😊 /Another Swede living in the wild
Not to sound dumb, but is this normal for Swedes?
Every friday, swedish woodsmen get together to build a log cabin
@@armintor2826 Exactly, just another normal Friday here in Sweden 😊
Twice a week here in Canada. Fridays and Wednesdays...we quilt the other days. Saturday and Sunday is beer night.
Kul att se dig här
Erik, you are an exceptional young man who works tirelessly, no matter how the weather conditions are. I watched your longest video and now I am watching the others too. I have seen many different log home builders, each one is a talented person but each one is different. You are a one-man without power tools, using hand tools only, a very smart man. I really enjoyed watching how you join and fit the logs into each other. Again, keep it up and stay healthy. Happy new year! 2023. Greetings from Arizona
Hello, Erik! Watching from Virginia, USA. You are one industrious and determined young man. Your parents raised you well. Looking forward to watching more videos of you completing your log cabin.
he is probably cheating on me

Sweden have such a beautiful forests!
Btw this doggo is cute af
I know right, it reminds me of the forest here in Norway ^^
A slice of heaven & solitude from this crazy world.
Thank you. I was wondering the location. 🙂👍
@@Raffalius What a supprise.
Hands down the best advert for merch I've ever seen! Well done! Put a gorgeous dog in front of anything and I'm sold! Congrats, you truly are living the dream, best of luck!
I have been watching every single episode of you 500 days. At first was just curious to see for how long will you last. Then I realized that with the time passing you were only growing smarter, stronger and more determined. God! How many splinters in your hands and flying debris into you eyes? I can only imagine. But nothing has stopped you. You keep chasing your dream with great ingenuity and resourcefulness. Glad, very glad to watch you every time. That keeps the faith awake in my that still there are true men out there. You are ready for whatever comes your way. Good luck and stay safe.!
You are an inspiration. This is for sure on my bucket list and something most people will never have the opportunity to do. Love this
How many people's muscles started aching watching this YOUNG MAN do what seems to come as effortlessly as walking the dog?! Always a JOY to watch you Erik...
PS- I watched the clip of you being interviewed, it was nice but I couldn't understand a word!!! HOWEVER, it was a great sneak peek as to what you've been up to. Alice looked excited too!
I feel superior while reading comments from you people, this is so basic and he has all the tools. Nothing special, just a kiddo with free time
hi! I also had my first survival in the forest. I built a shelter and spent the night. It was great. Thank you for your motivation!
Erik, have you read "The Heros Journey" by Joseph Campbell, i see what you did as a "spirit quest". That, is a native American tradition, where a young man goes on a journey of discovery, and, finds out who he is, and, where he belongs. Many of us did it in the sixites and seventies,. Have you read any of Jack Kerouac's books. I suggest, "On the Road" if you have not already discovered it. I am 71, a retired carpenter/farmer/cabinetmaker who lives in the woods on the north shore of Lake Superior, here in Minnesota, i have Norwegian and Swedish ancestors, and, i have loved to watch you on your journey.
You know a lot of Scandinavian people came to Wisconsin and Minnesota to cut down trees. They saw this boom because after they pioneered to the west they needed more wood and there was so much forest in Minnesota and Wisconsin. My dad is also from Minnesota but he is just American, but I am half Sweden because my mom immigrated.
@@gudrunlizzie328 My ancestors were Swedish, Norwegian, and, Danish. They came after the logging boom, because, we had something called the Homestead Act. If you settled on a piece of land, and, built a house and planted a crop, you got 160 acres for almost not money. The land for farming is what brought my people here to Minnesota and western Wisconsin. Back in their native countries they would have had a hard time getting any land. And, of course, the climate, lakes, and, forests were much like what they were used to, so the land did not seem as foreign to them.
Some of the items you’re wearing in here look very American Wild West, you got some taste with those items.
RUclips randomly recommended one of your mid process videos that was fascinating so I started from the beginning. This is a nice recap of my last 2 days binge of your channel :)
This is the first I've watched you Erik and I'm very impressed . Your doing what I've always wanted to do . I am 71 and fell in love with cabins since I was 10 and have loved the outdoors all my life . The animals in the forests come up to me like they have always known me . I feel completely at home in the woods . I've subscribed to your videos and look forward to many more . Be safe and free .
Hey!, I actually watched the 2hr version, but this edit is really cool as well!
Keep up the good work. :)
Skills that we will all need here shortly
Honestly, you chose the right time to take a break from society and the world at large. Good on ya, I am envious, neither my job nor my surroundings allow for a full solitude and independence like the one you have. I'm working towards it but we'll see where I end up. Greetings from Germany, I hope you'll keep on keepin on!
15 minutes of DONG DONG DONG DONG... i love it!
Kommer du bo i skogen på heltid :) ? Hursomhelst är det väldigt imponerade med vad du har åstadkommit, hoppas att du känner dig stolt över kabinen.
You must be a master of sharpening your tools too ! How exactly do you do that ? Such inspiring material !
he HAD HELP ALL THE TIME! DONT BE SO SILLY
@@luizfillipesouzaritzel805 thanks for sharing your amazing opinion with us, im sure a lot of people gained something from that
@Lucas Hartley im sure he didnt hunt his food
@@another_random and so? Hunting game wasn't the point of this at all. Man-childs just sound jealous.
I could definitely watch a 10h version instead. It's so satisfying to watch how you make slow progress, what technique you're using and how you're doing it with hand tools (seriously, power tools make it less than half as interesting).
So if you ever think of uploading a REAL LONG episode of everything you have decided to cut out, please do.
It's definitely a ASMR channel
Erik incredible accomplishment, it must feel good. Thanks for sharing your whole journey with us. I have enjoyed every minute. 👍👍 I watched interview. Celebrity now. Someone will want to make a movie Erik! 😃
Sicket häste jobb så impad. Läste någonstans att det var så skönt att det inte fanns bakgrundsmusik utan bara naturen och ditt arbete. Underbart med fågelsången men även de andra ljuden. ❤️❤️
Ljudet av svensk natur och träd som huggs är ju bara bäst🤩
I began watching when you first started laying the foundation to your cabin and never tired of watching your skills. This video was a nice refresher to the beginning. Who taught you
your skills? I love how you respect and care for your tools. Your cuts and ax skills are done with such precision and cleanness.
This is so cool and looks like an amazing adventure I can't wait to see the rest of the cabin!!💗💗
Hi, Erik. Your cabin looking great. I watch the interview, it was nice to hear your voice, at last. Swedish language in Finland sounds a little bit different than Swedish swedish so I didn't understood all of it, but I think it was a good interview. You look (and sound) such a happy guy. I wish all the best for you.
My jaw is on the floor. I can barely make a cup of tea.
Wonderful to see that there are still young people out there that use their energy and determination to built something very nice without hurting other people. Tack, tack and respect young man!

"I still can't believe that this is possible", that's strange.
I am so impressed with you doing this that I'm seriously lost for words. I can't wait to see the next video.
awesome! love the slow-mo of the debarking~
I recently found your channel and I really love it!
Keep the good work going!
I watched that whole 2 hour video at 3am and had work in the morning... Gonna watch this one too
After watching this again, and seeing how well your ax’s work. As well the care ,and attention, you give them . I think I’ll never let my splitting maul hit the ground, let alone just drop it while splitting fire wood
I always told my 4 brothers and my Dad. You throw the tool on the ground, you pick it up, and use use it for another turn. My granddad taught me that.
You ser are an inspiration. Wind beneath the wings. A one of a kind, you are are on your way to a very happy life, just keep doing what your doing. Thanks for sharing your life. PEACE BROTHER
Glad to see another upload!
Some skills right there!
As soon as I start the video I'm instantly relaxed. I applaude your skill and dedication.

thanks for these videos i had recorded my own film of kayaking the rhine with my dog last year but i never did anything with it but now i have decided to put it together and upload it. i watched the 2 hour one last week and it made me realise something i had known for a long time that i was unhappy with my life. i got to the final year of dental school in Hungary and i was depressed and filled with anxiety and i had not had a smile on my face in 3 years. i failed out of my exams and was in a very bad mental state where i had to find professional help. i am from ireland and i had my dog and it was going to be 600 euro to fly her home so instead i bought a kayak and gathered my camping gear and i sailed over a 1000km my dog and i along the river rhine from start to finish. i had a gopro and filmed the journey however i had problems recharging it as the corona virus had just began and everything closed last march. it was the most amazing 3 months of my life just being alone with my dog. i never did anything with the footage i filmed but after watching your channel i have been inspired to put it together into a film, sadly it was my first time recording something and i have very bad angles and i missed some of the coolest moments but i want to keep filming and do more adventures now. i have been thinking of building my own cabin here on my dads farm i just need to get the money to get the timber as sadly i dont have access to a forest like yourself but it is my dream to make one here and some day be able to buy a plot of land in the mountains of norway or canada.
🙏🌹💎
Im soooo glad he posted this i came to the channell a month after the 2 hour video was posted and as a new weiwer wasent willing to whatch the howle thing thank you so much💖:)
i wish i could have done this during these messed up times
You are really a great, hansom and strong man! This is a not a log cabin, but a wonderful house for permanent residence! I look forward to your next video! And yes, I have watched all video's!
I think this is every mans dream, its in our blood. Impressive seeing your journey
Wow, you are a true craftsman, can’t wait for the next video
Hi from Western Australia 🇦🇺
Nicely filmed and edited Erik. I appreciate your craftsmanship.
I've enjoyed watching the build. Awesome work with the 🪓. Can't wait to see the finished product.🍻
I'm sorry..... he already has merch! Some wild, hard working, outdoors loving , video editing, business man.
Also keep in mind he had to move that camera to get the different shots. Not only working harder than most but pausing mid log heave to move a camera
Again.... impressed
Har precis kollat igenom större delen av dina videor, måste säga att jag är mäkta imponerad av vad du åstadkommit här, riktigt häst jobb har du gjort (minus en stock med traktor 😂) men jävlar vad bra jobbat! Har du hunnit få något tak eller takstolar på nu före snön nu då? :)

I tell you Nerdy Woodsman?
You picked just about the perfect year and a bit to be in the wilderness...what with all the giant mess from Covid-19 going on.

Beautiful pictures and an impressive compilation of your work and adventure so far! Keep it going and stay safe!
Truly awesome and inspiring. Such great work. Looking forward to your new episode.
Hope we can see new progress soon!
Great 500 days and look where you are with a great build. Soon you will have a great home and no mortgage to pay forevermore. Thanks for all tour fine work. Hang in and finish. 🐻🙏
It doesn't beat your 2 hours version. It was great to watch it non-stop. :)
What happened to the beautiful little red dog with the long ears - think she is called Alice. Cannot find anything in episodes. She was replaced by a lovely young German Pointer dog in episode titled “Ancient Wood Preserving Technique, published 5 September 2021.
Erik.. Every time I watch you working, I just wished I had a quarter of the ambition you have. What a great thing you have done building this cabin with no power tools. I still like the idea of how you rolled the logs up to the new level. Keep up the great work. P.S. I love that you are replenishing the woods with new trees.
yo does anyone know all the different axes hes using?
This man really is a whole freaking vibe
Hello from Florida USA. Thanks for showing this can be done by one man, good instruction and quality workmanship! Gives me an idea for a project here at home.
The scent of fresh pine is revitalizing.
Very nice job! Well done! I'm also learning to work with wood now. i are still a long way from building our own house. experience is not enough. And there are no teachers. I learn from the video. Hello from Russia!)
I hope a cabin in the middle of nature for everybody who wants it and me also included lol
Välproducerat i vanlig ordning, ser fram emot nästa video!
5:35 - I had to watch it again..
Hi Erik! Great videography! Reminds me of MySelfReliance with Sean James from Canada. Have you ever conversed? I bet he'd love to chat!
