This is the result! In this episode, we build the cabin and add transparent PVC roofing panels to it. Perfect for stargazing! The clear roofing isn t just for looks and lighting though, it can also be used for heating during the winter! Much in the same way that a greenhouse passively heats itself using sunlight. So cool! Throw in some led string lights, and it looks like hundreds of fireflies have come to rest on the cabin roof. (*Editor s note: Yeah, I realize that I kept calling it plexiglass roofing. ...Silly me. lol It s actually PVC roofing panels. ...just FYI) Log cabin build playlist, from the beginning: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVv60L_JAEHYKhQ3W5x_MqWGMOXym2fG_ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theoutsiderwoodsman Outsider Store: Hoodies, T-Shirts, Stickers, Mugs, etc.: https://teespring.com/stores/the-outsider Special Edition Outsider Flashlight (Affiliate Links): Amazon US: https://amzn.to/2li096y Amazon Canada: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07W7R2DVK/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_EvnJDbYH48JN4 Thrunite website: https://www.thrunite.com/tc15-dt-the-outsider/ Equipment I use (Affiliate Links): LED Firefly String Lights- https://amzn.to/3bvXkEx Kerosene Lantern- https://amzn.to/2tCasqq Vintage LED Caged Lights, Battery Powered (similar models)- https://amzn.to/35cL5J2 & https://amzn.to/36eQpvW 1000Wh Power Station (Jackery)- https://amzn.to/2Zb43ix Dewalt Cordless Drill Kit- https://amzn.to/35sdP0o Trail Cam- https://amzn.to/2Q6MD0B Fiskars Axe- https://amzn.to/2EJVdhR Chainsaw (Poulan)- https://amzn.to/2IP1fls Chainsaw (Echo)- https://amzn.to/2VykyB2 Pocket Knife- https://amzn.to/2Udm1MJ Fixed Blade Knife- https://amzn.to/2HnrT2i Drone- https://amzn.to/2IPucxH GoPro- https://amzn.to/2XDHRee Camcorder- https://amzn.to/2HnpLHq Headlamp: https://amzn.to/2CyEe0u Flexible Tripod- https://amzn.to/2EIlRrj Music: "Firefly" - Chris Haugen #popupcabin #cabin #tinyhouse
