  • I add a roof over top of the outdoor kitchen to protect it from rain and snow. I repurpose the top of a grain bin. If you are interested in a sawmill, Norwood HD 36 Portable Sawmill, or other, please use my custom link: bit.ly/3O9SnXA
    I build an outdoor kitchen for the offgrid property down by the pond. It has a reclaimed sink, cherry solid wood island, and much more to come. The outdoor space at the offgrid is shaping up to be a pretty sweet location for hanging out.

    "Self-Reliance" is an 1841 essay written by American transcendentalist philosopher and essayist Ralph Waldo Emerson. It contains the most thorough statement of one of Emerson's recurrent themes: the need for each individual to avoid conformity and false consistency, and follow his own instincts and ideas. This channel will approach self reliance from a modern perspective. and will focus on various build projects using modern amenities, and tools to build a completely self reliant lifestyle.
    Many people ask me where I am from and where I film my projects. I am from Northern Ontario, Canada, and live in an area where off-grinding is easy because I have lots of land to build on and experiment with different buildings and materials. Everything I do is to try to be more self reliant, and to depend less on others. But that doesn't mean I don't like working together with other people on projects. Knowing people who have skills is part of being self reliant, and trading skills is a great way to get more things done!

    You know what we need for a video? Everything. I don’t know how many hours of video it would take, but I want a tour of everything you’ve done on the property. The minivan treehouse, the hobbit hole cellar, the rain shower, the man shed, the spider hole, the three different cabins, and the sauna, and the lake

    Stone Masonry has been in my family for several generations, even today it’s what my Father, Brothers, and I do. So naturally when you mentioned building a new fireplace my ears perked up! Everyone has different levels of skills with different trades, but I’m really looking forward to seeing what you come up with. There’s so many beautiful designs and routes you can take to make them unique.
    Time and time again I see people just chucking rocks in a circle and calling it good. I demand more!!! Haha. Great video as always man, this made my morning.

    I took down a grain bin in France 30 years ago and learnt the words for nut, bolt and washer: "ecru, boulon y rendel!" I was the guy on the inside. Love what you do. It's really relaxing viewing and I always have a laugh. My allotment buddy Marco built a smoker like yours, his hasn't burnt down yet. Keep doing it your way, Kevin.

    Oh my gosh….Kevin…..😂. You intro had me laughing. These are so cool. I have to say I’m shocked you didn’t decide to use the 2nd one as a new “cabin”. 😉. I mean you have the opening in the center of the top…would be perfect for a chimney. Fireplace in the center will help evenly put out the heat. Would be cool if you could install some windows in the top for natural light. The snow would definitely slid off the roof in the winter. You are like those employees who worked for Disney at imagination land. There are no limits as to what you can build , how & with what materials. ❤. I love how you are always thinking outside “the box”. 😉😬✌🏼. PS…..you should totally sell cutting boards to us subs. I would totally support you & buy one!!!. You can surprise your wife & make her #1 of course I get to buy #2 signed by you on the back since I gave you the idea. 😬. Seriously I would totally buy one ‘ I’m sure there are a lot more who would also be interested . 😉. Kevin you should put a lift “cap” above the top opening. So if it does rain the cap deflects it ‘ doesn’t come inside the roof. You can put some hooks along the support post to hang various tool. Hot dog forks, frying pans etc. Heck you might even be able To attach a hammock between 2 of the support post. Turned out amazing!!! Let me know about my future cutting board . 😬😬😉

    You should totally use one of those round porthole style windows as your skylight! Maybe some air holes just below the window for airflow. And if you find out you need more support in the middle you could always use those curved 'angle iron' pieces to build a kind of 'outdoor umbrella' style support in the middle where you have one central log and a few angled supports attached below the window.
    Always fantastic and creative ideas! I'd love to build one of these too once I can get myself some property so we can have a little community outdoor kitchen just like you guys!

    Definitely gives the area a tropical look, like those circle huts you see on beaches. Cool. You could always paint some rust fighting paint on the outside surface, but I like the look of it as it is. You could add some 'free solar lighting' as well, maybe a small solar panel out the top of the roof or something.

    Just a thought from an old fire insurance investigator.Your rusty metal canopy is the perfect host for grease laden vapors derived by your outdoor cooking.Without scheduled maintenence the airborne grease will accumulate in the dome,leaving it subject to flash fires.
    This often is the case in diner fires caused by not changing the grease traps in the canopy above the grill.Just a friendly reminder.

    A safety and decorating idea:
    put Pool Noodles of different colors all around the bottom of your “Grainzebo”. Just slice them once longways and slip them on! This will also protect, from the sharp, rusty corrugated metal, the heads of any giants who might stop by for a free fish dinner.😊

    Edit: Oh if you're going to add a fireplace I'd add natural stone wall with base cabinetry on either side, and a couple upper shelves to store some cooking supplies.
    Also, stucco over the corrugated metal walls would make it look pretty slick. Add Copper Patina paint on the roof panels and the whole thing would look great.

    I'd want some storage built into the ceiling of that thing. Like, some shelves along the edges, at least. Maybe one of those bigger shelves that hang from the ceiling and can be lowered down when needed. Just somewhere that's going to be safe from the elements and most scavengers, to keep some shelf stable stuff (like that spice mix), some towels, and maybe a basic first aid kit. Could also store some pots and pans and plates and cups and utensils up there, you've got the space for it. Maybe a dedicated shelf for the battery and stringing some lights around the rim? I don't know, I'm sure you'll keep working at it and make it look nice, those are just my thoughts. 🙂 Great job as always! 😁

    Very cool and very practical, Kevin. I like your idea of a large fire pit at the edge of the roof.
