"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!

Would the pop up shelter work as a suana?
This is about the PERFECT Kevin Builds video: You, Chris, Don...and your daughter. Camping, ice fishing, and skating! This is what ponds are for in winter.
It was great seeing Don back. The reason I always love watching your videos is when you have Don, your Brother Chris, And yourself, Kevin come up with the most genius things to watch and learn.❤ Always love seeing Lena.
Good to see everybody and Don all better hopefully!
Hi Kevin I'm from Queensland Australia I love what you build for the homeless you should start selling them I don't know why we don't have something like this in Australia it would help hundreds of thousands of people here feel safer at night
Your brother is so knowledgeable about fishing and hunting. I need you brothers on my SHTF team.
GOOD TO SEE U ALL,VERY HAPPY TO SEE DON IS O.K,TOO.😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Love all the different shelters you make . You’re are very creative. Enjoy watching. 😊
Happy to see Fon back. Hi Kev and your brother.
Me again. When Spring arrives it would be a nice idea to tour us back through some of the previous builds - pros/cons and maybe the odd repair or improvement needed?😍🇨🇦
Thx guys for doing this, filming it and sharing it with us.
I like the little shack. I also can't believe how much your little one has grown since the cabin build. Doesn't feel like that long ago you guys built it, even though I knew it was a number of years ago already.
I think Diablo blades should become your sponsor !!!
The aqua view is the best part!
Hey Kevin; I do enjoy you & Bro Chris when you work together always helping one another out no matter what you are doing! Fantastic Fish/Rainbow Trout, X-lent-Eatin! 🐟😋! Ok, wow, way to recycle that Propane Tank into a useful wood burner! 🤔👍👌😎! Did the Big one get away? You do have a Wonderful Family, your lill Girl is so Sweet, she needs a Sibling too, ya know! 👧👨👦💕, kids are so much Fun!! Esp.when little! Future Soccer Player!? Everything Turned out Well! GBU.,SM.,NZ., ❤ that Homemade Wood Burner! 😲💡!
The more videos of yours that I watch, the more i want to move to Canada. It's not just the scenery, its you and all of the wonderful people around you that makes it seem so wonderful. I've lived in the U.S. my entire life, and I'm ready for a change! Something new. Something better!!
The grass is greener where you water it.
@@ModernSelfReliance I like that saying. It's getting pretty bad here, in so many ways though. I'm REALLY ready for a change. My family and I will probably end up moving out of the US in the next couple years. Canada seems like the best option. Thank you for all that you do and share with us. My father was a carpenter for 30+ years. Watching your vids reminds me of him and when I was young, watching him work. 😊
Hi from Syracuse NY USA brother and everyone else
You'll probably see more of your shelters in use in the future. Ice fishermen especially would enjoy the portability of it. Tote it onto the ice, assemble it after you've drilled exploratory holes. Nice! Great video though, a little bit of everyone. I'd work on your stick handling though, your daughter seized the opportunity to steal...lol 😂😅 Love what ya'll are doing ❤️
It's good to see Don out and about. I hope he is feeling better.
Awesome as always you all caught some nice fish 🎣 your daughter is getting big a really good skater
Lol, your daughter is precious!!!
Love that Don is back!!
Nice little tiny house., fish shanty.
I agree with Chris that you could raise your heater. Sure you have it low to heat the floor, but your ducting could solve that. If higher you could exhaust higher out the end wall, instead of bottom. Then use your exterior exhaust to warm you a bowl of water.
I also agree with easy in/easy out, but not really a ramp. Just use strapping to connect your lower/upper panels on the wall sides. Another hinge on the lower door sections. Then you could flop it down for easier in and out. But you could pull it up if just sitting inside looking out. But I wouldn't open that all the way down to the floor, I'd only go half the distance (like if you are stepping over a 24 inch wall, then extend your lower door by 12 inches).
I'd also put in porthole windows on either end.
But overall, great design. Thanks for sharing.
I'll ask my homeless friend if he wants one (got to be better than just hunkering down under a tarp, that has no way to lock).
Nice. Three men on their pond.
Or period lol seemed like the 2 were getting on echothers nerves lol
Loved this adventure. It was great seeing Don. The ice shack is a great addition to your fun builds.
For the output melting the ice at the end of the shelter, you could add an extension to the output, that curves up a little bit at the end. Just to keep it out of the water.
I thought you would have put something over the floor hole while you slept. Love the creative ideas ❤
Kevin I love when your brain starts to think outside the box. You come up with so many good ideas. Also air hug to Don it was so great to see you hope you are doing better so miss you working with Kevin.
I guess I missed this video. Don!!! Glad to see him out & about again. Love you guys, be well!
My son just recently installed the vevor heater in his tiny home. Called me last night from Huntsville. It was around -18c when he called. He has not completed the insulation yet, but he said he had 2 windows open. I am getting one for my trailer. It will compliment the woodstove very nicely.
It's funny watching you and your brother. It's exactly like me and my brother. I'm just trying to do good but my brother always has a better way to do it hahaha. I'm glad Don is back good to see his face.
kind of reminded me of my old chem teacher there, the first class for the new first graders each year he would use a bunsen burner and a lot of powdered coffee creamer to show how cool science and chemistry can be ;P
Good to see the gang together with another new project. Must be hockey time soon!
For the door on the ice hut/ porta-cap idea: have the door fall open from one of the ends. And have a small/thin latch at the top. Save the integrity of the length panels, and less little parts to keep together. Love the idea. And it can open the possibilities for improved floor space for future versions.
Get used fryer oil from restaurants filter and use for free heat in diesel heater.
I like your "Man Sized bird house" or "Human Bird house". It's a great use of garage doors, what better building material is there that will support it's self like these and insulate you from the cold? They're not unlike the collapsible ice shanties or tool sheds but good thinking really. You could even stagger the joints (like brick or block) and make a larger structure (not that you would need it) like a lodge or something. You need a way to anchor your fishing shanty so if you go to sleep the wind won't blow you across the lake! What a cute kid! Everybody needs a sweet heart like that at home.
All my best to Don.
For your next syrup try, you should have frozen waffles out there in your new made shed with home sourced maple 🍁 syrup.
These little sheds are awesome, there's so many different ways you can use them. I think your on to something here, before you know it you'll be getting people wanting you to ship them one. Get ready I see you getting real busy.
Really good video Kevin. Good to see Don out and about, very cool! Chris definitely knows his ways to fish, very good! The build was cool and thought the fire pit was a good touch! Sure you and your daughter had a blast skating! The light you had mounted on the shack was very cool, lit the entire area very cool man! Can't wait to see the next one!
😂😂lmao u had me at the valve but the torch got me in tears😅
Cabelas has plastic sleaves that go thru the floor hole down to the ice. The top has a flange roled over to catch and hold it in place. It stops cold winds blowing in and stops the line from getting cut on your jagged metal burs.
I have one of those diesel heaters in my camper van and knew before you showed it that the exhaust being so low was going to melt the ice. I have vents with ducts so I can aim the air wherever. So you could raise the diesel heater up, and still have the air blowing by the floor. Then the exhaust could be up off the ice.
I wasn't so sure about your homeless shelter idea, but I think you may be on to something with your ice fishing shelter. Maybe you could produce a few of these, in a kit form, and sell them on the side. I'm sure people will find a million uses for them. With your creative mind, you'll be a millionaire in no time. Keep up the good work.
It’s funny… this looks just like homeless shelter but he painted it, and changed some panels. So, this what your using it for now a ice fishing shelter. You should have just left it for others to use. ☹️
Hey Mr Kevin best to you and your family and friends, you winter weather shack is a winnner. So many homeless people would love to shelter in something like what you have built simple and efficient keep up the great work with what you do.
awesome stuff. Where i live, we dont get snow or ice or anything, but it's still really fun to watch other people do this stuff.
Kevin amazes this old granny. Your daughter is beautiful and her red hair is gorgeous. ❤ from Tennessee!!!
Cool build Kevin! 😊
I hate to say this, but I think you have a great idea with the little fishing shack and a place for shelter. Awesome show and great almost seeing all the family and friends together. Don is looking great. You all have a great day and Full stop 🛑 x3.
I like family videos like this. Good people, good fishing, and good cooking.
Please don't ever put a hot cast iron pan on the ice. You could set up small fractures that could break the pan.
great fishing nice place thank you for sharing
👍👍👍
Very clever .Wondering though if the heat from the fire bowl will heat up the legs enough to melt the ice causing the whole unit to sink through the ice?
Well, I guess the next thing you’ll have to do in the summertime is put it on a big platform like a pontoon and take it out on a lake in the middle of the lake I mean and live for a days eating fish or whatever you bring definitely have to do that Make sure you bring an anchor to keep you steady in the middle of the lake. Lol.
I love how the pond turned out. Keep up the good videos!!
My first view. Cool cool cabin. How does that tiny pond support fish that big?
Hey, Don!!!
I want to see your idea for small space heater. Graet video as usual.
😊 I really enjoy watching your videos Thank you
Love this video Kevin 🤣😅
Love the antics with the propane tank 😂😅
The trout looks gorgeous, super tasty 😋
All the best from down under, Australia 🇭🇲🦘🦘🦘🙏🦘🦘🦘🇭🇲
Thanks for the post, am wondering if you and Chris will do a victory dance off success of pond over those that said it's not gonna work IF the super couple fish breed in the spring, oh how I'm hoping for that impossible to happen
Nice build on the fire to ,you remind me of a chief i worked with many many years ago, he'd come in with stuff in his head an fire of fantastic flavours ( mostly)
Stay safe and healthy you and yours 👍🏼🤙🏼🖖🏼
Good morning from Minnesota USA! Great episode!
In the Spring it'll become the Homeless Submarine
That tip up looks like an old Fred Trost design from Michigan Outdoors from back in the day. RIP, Fred.
Great video, Kevin: It is always great to see someone giving back to their community.-Happy trails.-😀
You probably can cut all the way down to the floor and have the bottom half open downward into a ramp. The top door and bottom door can be held closed with a latch. Think it is a cool build.
Kevin - can you put 3 bars across the top of the fire pit - for a kettle/small pot which might be a smaller diameter than your frying pan? Also, what about a small pail to dump the newly caught fish into so they don’t land on your shelter floor (smell, blood, etc.)?
as you already have power for the diesel heater a vent fan in the top of one of the end caps would let you easily draw in cold air to regulate the temp by pulling in cold air as needed / maybe even thermostat controlled / large computer fan might be enough
0:41 the sarcasm though 🤣
Always interested and appreciated your sharing of ideas and escapades. More please!!!
You need to stock it every year with different trout! And sturgeon and salmon
Great video as usual . You are a great builder and talkative fabricator with imagination , BUT please dont cook , that trout would have been really nice if it wasn't overcooked and burnt .Anyway love your videos , and what you have done on the property . Great to see Don !!
Definitely a great house
Most awesome fire pit design and build.
Another great build Kevin!
There are different models of diesel heaters that might work better for you. Or you could make the floor wider like a more traditional style cabin. Just a suggestion. But what do I know. I have never lived north of the 40th parallel. 😂
Change.... Change.... All is well. Is the suspended cabin available? 😉
Interesting times, nice proof of concept. Seriously, best to all and may everyone be of equal service to others.
So much algae in the pond. Nice fish though. You should do a follow up on the homeless shelter. Show how the hermit crabs live in there🐸🍺🔪🔥
You can fill the propane tanks with water or put a lit torch in them, haha. 😊
I can't imagine how you guys would react to those of us who went fishing every summer weekend growing up in Arizona. 125 degrees on the lake, just trolling along in our 15' Glastron, drinking ice cold MGD waiting for sonething to hit our lines...what a time. But diametrically opposed to your kind of outdoors-ing 😂
Awesome
Kevin, i know you're not rich and still have difficulty in your day to day life. However could you try and do another car video? Like loadout and camping?
Already watched the van one dozens of times. Wondering if you could do one with a sedan spin or even a truck?
Nice video
Take the picethat you cut inside and screw something across it so you can put back in hole till you use it again
you might try a smaller battery for diesel heater like motorcycle, for easier transport, I think they even make lithium
How about a metal pail of sorts filled with river stone and water heated on the out door fire and placed in the shack at bedtime to radiate heat
Awesome video ❤
Great video, Kevin!
Glad you enjoyed it
Love your videos
It’s a VOLE.
Not a mole.
Love the shanty. Cut the wall, into a ramp(with skateboard grip tape). Get gas arms, and a rope to pull both ramp and “lid” at the same time.
Step in, pull… CLOSED!
Water or use exhaust gas some as if your cutting drums that have had petrol in them.
HEAT UP 6 LG. ROUND ROCKS ON your fire, put them on something in your hut, will keep u warm all night
Outstanding!
Fun video :)
and McCafe coffee with maple syrup as sweetener
Good 👍
Nice set up❤❤😂😂😂
It’s 75° here today😊
thats why we get version 2.0
Ok. This looks almost exactly like what I'm looking for to build a teardrop trailer. I have looked up used garage doors in my are. Where do you source your doors?
How do I get snagged, ice fishing? I go ice fishing, hahaha.
Currently know many homeless that would benefit from these in the U.S. However with no money source, once the diesel ran out, its expensive to replace. I would love to know the dimensions to build as I've been homeless before, and actually dream of a tiny home! And Im crafty so have some ideas on how to make it work more efficient for myself. I would so live in this and feel blessed. I live in a fairly hot state so a split level would be more useful than a heater here. What a great way to recycle what would be trash for a home!!!
