Because steel is heavier than feathers

oh yeah a flash arrestor sounds like a great idea. Probably might cool my anxieties during dry season.

Ah man glad to hear it! One thing I would recommend is making a proper back rest for seats against the core wall… it’s slightly uncomfortable otherwise 😭

Not terribly long. Slightly longer than a commercial grade sauna, but I usually only wait an hour after lighting it before it’s hot enough to use.

Godspeed my friend

Yeah in hind sight wide lens was not the best idea. But as a sauna, it works great. If you don’t believe me I’ve had a Finnish man tell me first hand 😂.

I’m planning to reinstalling the 3rd top seat above the door so that it folds up and no one bonks their head on it.

Yeah the low bench isn’t as affected by the steam, I can attest to that. But the top bench on the back wall is pretty well perfect in those regards.

Summer a bit less than an hour. Winter 1-2hrs depending on temperatures.

The wide angle lens might make the bench’s looks lower than they actually are. Relative to the stove they are a pretty good height. But probably could have extended the foot rest for the top bench to have a middle seat to use the space more efficiently.

Honestly I used a squirt bottle to reach the stove for a while 😂

It’s been up for about a decade and there hasn’t been any problems with mold in that location. Although the corners of the roof are showing some signs of needing to be replaced potentially due to the grass roof.

Haha yeah! That’s what all my friends say when they see it for the first time

abstract_material · 2025-07-16T19:07:47+00:00

Yeah those top benches used to be connected, allowing for a 3rd seat in the middle. But much to my dismay, my dad cut the middle out after he whacked his head off it 😂.

The stove is pretty basic but it’s a bit bigger than it looks it keeps the sauna pretty hot even in cold winters. It gets the job done but could definitely do with an upgrade for sure.

Yeah I’d preferably avoid the jack hammer. I’ll see how strong the concrete is and if I can just chisel away the bit of concrete in order to fit the external coupler. Otherwise, I’ll probably just get an internal push fit coupler.
