    I recently built a wood shed down by the creek at our home property, and never filled it with fire wood because I knew I had wanted to come and do a campout first. I had also wanted to make a little wood-fired hot tub for the occasion, and have been mulling over ideas for a long time. Years ago we bought a bunch of old 500lb propane tanks in order to have a pontoon dock made, and there were a bunch of leftover tank 'ends'. We sold some, gave some away, had 2 combined to make a globe, and have had the last 2 sitting around for years. I had always wondered if I could fit in one, and use it as a hot tub! I knew I needed some way to stand it up, and have a fire underneath, and when we were getting the rails for the ore car hot tub project, I saw an old tire rim and knew it would be the perfect thing. Steve helped to give life to my vision, and voila!
    Honestly, the whole tub and experience turned out better than I thought it would, and I kinda can't wait to do it again! 🤭
    Camping in the wood shed was fun - I made it feel super cozy with lights and some hanging sheets to keep the cold creek breeze out. In the morning it was likely about 8 degrees Celsius, but I was warm and comfortable!
    So much of life is making memories, and the more we do that's out of our 'normal', or out of our comfort zone, the more memories we will make. Ever thought about camping in your own back yard? Get out and make it happen! 😁
    As always, thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed the 'Michyquirky' video 🤭

    If you really want to clean up the Tub and make it a bit safer. Add some river sand (even fine gravel will work) in the bottom of the hot tub. When in there rub the sand around and the tub it will really clean up and it gives you a layer to stand on that isn't steal. I built something like this for my sister the sand is key. Great job on the project.

    Reminds me of an old Playboy Magazine cartoon. Picture in your mind's eye, African natives gathered around a huge cooking pot. Inside the pot as a fire heated the water, was a female missionary whose head (with worried expression) was sticking out, still wearing a traditional safari-style pith helmet. This image came to mind, only with Michelle in her hot tub wearing a pith helmet!

    I used to work for NYC (retired), our in house painters were all Union and highly skilled. Their ladder choice was little giant with all the attachments. What a versatile tool that is. Extensions on legs for ground and stair adjustments. The ladder folded and planks make it a sturdy platform and to many other parts to hold tools and step off a ladder onto a work step while ladder is raised and so on. You might want to consider one, they are great, maybe a sponsorship pitch will get you one. Enjoy and lucky Steve, a girl who not only helps around the house but can build one, lol.

    Hi Michell, good morning. I told you, your MSA-140 Stihl chainsaw, would become your go to saw. Our friends had a large broken limb. Took my Greenworks battery chainsaw over and in no time, we cut it down, love not having to gas and pull starting saw. I had a total shoulder replacement last year and want to keep it working well. My friends are buying an electric chainsaw they were so impressed. Through this week went by fast, it’s not Sunday morning having my coffee watching you, but Wednesday. Keep up the great videos always enjoy your projects, weather is good her so will finish up decks staining this week.
    Stay safe and well.

    Watching you chop that wood really strikes one as being a highly efficient (complete) power transfer from your body to the axe. A thing of wonder and beauty. And, it is clear you need a heavier axe because you could clearly push it harder. I just love your mysterious smirk as you were coming up with and completing your plan for a hot tub.

    Don't fuss with that cedar plank facia, it survives the 20' "squint-eyed" rule; (from further than 20' you'll never see the gap.)

But hey, it was some leftovers that you had to eat. Everything looks so cozy at the campsite. Don't boil yourself in the hot tub....

    In a world where woodchucks ponder and girls dream,
    A tale of mischief, laughter, and a hot tub scheme.
    The woodchuck scratched its furry head with glee,
    For the woodshed's lack of wood, you see.
    A girl, adventurous, her heart aflutter,
    Decided the woodshed's fate to utterly shutter.
    "No logs for me," she declared with pride,
    "I'll camp here, with a shelf, by my side."
    With determination, she toiled away,
    Crafting a shelf for her human array.
    But then, a wild idea took its hold,
    A wood fire hot tub, daring and bold!
    She found an old truck wheel, rusty and round,
    And a quarter of a propane tank she found.
    With tools and sparks, she set the stage,
    For a hot tub adventure, fit for an age.
    But the woodchuck, with its wisdom profound,
    Recalled a tale that did astound.
    Three ducks, in a 118-degree brew,
    Sank without a trace, oh, how they flew!
    The next day, as the sun took its bow,
    The woodchuck returned, its heart aflutter now.
    The girl, packing up, had made amends,
    The woodshed stocked, to its very ends.
    So, the moral of this tale, you see,
    Is that woodchucks and girls can both agree,
    A woodshed filled with wood, that's good,
    As much wood as they both ever could!
