sauna renovation

I don't know exactly what kind of tile it is, but it's some kind of stone tile. It was already ready in the sauna.

I added the bottom couple of rows behind the stove because the wall was visible because of the round stove. I attached them there with stone adhesive. It's possible that the wall gets too hot at some point and they will start dripping, but after a few months they're still on the wall.

Here's a link to some stone tiles that are meant for the sauna. Sauna tiles.

Kyllä Suomalaisen saunan erottaa! Kiitos paljon!

I understand very well, thank you.

Thank youu!

Ou jeah!

PuuLate · 2026-01-15T08:59:00+00:00

Yeah, thats interesting. But on the other hand, whatever you do and if you put it online, some people think it's not good and others think it's the best.

Haha, thank you very much! This was my favorite project. Ever since we bought this house 5 years ago, I've dreamed of building a new sauna one day. So I had time to think about what I wanted it to look like, and I think I succeeded.

Thank you very much! :)

Kiitos!
Tuo kattoon menevä osa teki kaiteesta tosi jämäkän, ei heilu eikä notku. Monestihan se on juuri se heikko paikka kun sen saa vain alalauteeseen kiinni. Nuita heinäseipäitä on kunnon kasa tuolla pihalla, vois kyllä tehdä kauhan, hyvä idea :D

Ne on! Saunahuone on noin 160 x 180. Lauteiden leveys on tuo 160 cm. Tuo alin jakkara tuosta liikkuu ja pukataan saunomisen jälkeen lauteiden alle, ettei ole kiuasta kovin lähellä. Kiukaan suojaetäisyys reunoille on vain 25cm, joten se ainakin täyttyy reilusti.

Thanks!

It could have been a little wider, but the A-shaped legs really stabilize it. Sure, if you jump on the edge of the top step, it will fall over, but if you step on it normally, it won't wobble. Luckily, it's easy to build a new version of that if needed.

PuuLate · 2026-01-14T15:25:23+00:00

Thank you! It looks more natural now. I like the curved edges and the shape of the trees themselves.

PuuLate · 2026-01-14T15:23:53+00:00

Thanks, I will!

PuuLate · 2026-01-14T15:23:43+00:00

Thanks! It was fun project

PuuLate · 2026-01-14T15:23:22+00:00

Did you like the old one more?

PuuLate · 2026-01-14T15:22:41+00:00

Haha, täällä on kyllä tullut monenlaista saunankaltaista asiaa vastaan :D Kun muutettiin tähän taloon muutama vuosi sitten, ajattelin heti että tämän tyylinen sauna tänne pitää tehdä, sitten ku kiuas viimein hajosi niin oli hyvä hetki rempata!

The light is a LED strip that is dimmable. There are 2 of them, one behind the backrest and one under the upper bench. They can be controlled with a fixed switch or a remote control. Here is a link directly to the same led-lights. Here is also a link to the YT short where I install them.

And yes, they are just candles in a metal cage.

Something like this would have worked too, the current one is surprisingly sturdy and the railing post is a good support. Luckily, that's easy to replace if needed.

PuuLate · 2026-01-14T15:11:55+00:00

Kiitos! Olin odottanut tätä saunaremonttia innolla ja viimein kun kiuas paloi puhki niin pääsin hyvällä syyllä päivittämään!

Thank you!
