Sometimes we hear a call from nature. When I was 18 years old I ventured out alone with only a backpack full of simple hand tools to actualize my dream. Build my own traditional off grid log cabin by hand from the materials of the Swedish wilderness. Just like our ancestors.
I had no previous experience in building, gathering materials or filming. So I started studying myself the old arts and learning from my grandfather and mentor Åke Nilsson. I began to cut down trees and film with my phone, learning as I go. My project started full time once I graduated high school in summer 2019. I film everything myself and edit these videos so you can follow my journey and hopefully learn as I do.
Enjoy!

I FINALLY Built A Massive Bed In The Log Cabin
In this video I finally make a real bed for the log cabin! The best feeling in the world to finally sleep in a quality bed in the log cabin. I got the wonderful opportunity to visit Sandra from Swedish Wool Mattress Company in this video. She handcrafts mattresses made from natural materials. Check out her website: www.swedishwoolmattresscompany.se/
Thank you to "Hushållningssällskapet Halland" who did the sheep shearing and let me use their video footage.

I am selling my own handmade wooden products!!
My website: www.grankvist-outdoors.com
I hand-craft my own cutting boards in the log cabin. I can only make a few at a time, so you have to be first to buy one when a new batch is released. Every board is signed by hand with its own unique number, representing how every cutting board is unique. They are made from hard nordic oak, making them extremely durable, holding up for a lifetime of abuse. Instead of having a plastic cutting board that really should be thrown away after 2 years.
I was told that my dream of selling handmade products wouldn’t work in today's world where everything is mass produced. I want to prove them wrong. My goal is to expand into other handmade products. Making a series of lifetime quality handmade goods. Breaking free from mass production, supporting our environment.

4 years ago I felt lost, even though society had clearly paved the path for me. I was 17 and living in Stockholm Sweden. After seeing the documentary "Alone in the wilderness" by Dick Proenneke, I became completely obsessed with the idea of just packing a rucksack of hand tools and wondering off into the vast forest of Sweden to create my own life, living off the land and build a log cabin. I f...

This vid was great but... did you have to kill that poor little beaver?
.
Such a beautiful home. Paid off. In this day and age that's a miracle.
Erik super
At a family dinner, he sat in not at the middle.....
Рукастый парень. Всё может. Молодец! Однозначно лайк!
not watcing anymore ; cannot ssupport animal killing
Everyone woman wants a man that can build a sturdy bed and a make a whole damn hand sawn matress! We need more men like this!! Whoever he is with is beyond lucky!!!
Lots of laughing with how helpful the second puppy has been installing the roof. It is an amazing roof. Quite a beautiful accomplishment, as everything he does is.
I haven't seen a mallet that big since I watched a Daffy Duck cartoon.
That was wonderful! I enjoyed every minute and wanted more. My former boyfriend made beautiful furniture. I would go into the work shop and just loved to watch. ❤
Who does the dog belong to? They don't seem to stay together. Does he live somewhere else and just visits. Eric's solitude, determination and amazing talent is very strong and a pleasure to watch.
POV the single friend on the daily
At the first hour i would be crying in a corner wondering if im going to be back to home🤣. You are amazing dude.
Absolutely love the bed you built. Your craftsmanship is unmatched. A man of many hats.
Bro's tools have Unbreaking III
Why does the dog not have protective coverings for his feet ?!?
Do you need a license to build a cabin like that in sweden or can you just build one it if you own the land?
*David Attenborough voice* This is the endangered self sufficient manly-male human. Rarely spotted in the wild, let alone filmed while creating a beautiful homestead for his prospective family. ❤

Шикарно
Definitely not from IKEA! Well done 👍
bonsoir! c'est la première vidéo que je regerde de vous! vous êtes ébeniste?? votre matelas et sur matelas, fabriqués dans la pure tradition, doit être bien confortable et chaud! votre chine apprécie aussi! lol je m'abonne pour la suite!
Привет. Ты Супер человек. Всё можешь. Эти соления сам делал
Det vart ju ett riktigt bra bord och snygt också
Меня всегда мучает один вопрос, не боишься ли ты диких животных, вдруг медведь?
1:19:06 ????
Have been watching this channel for a few years now, and loving all the additional things you've added and your progress. That is an amazing solid bed. Love it, great job. Your craftsmanship is awesome. :)
凄く丁寧な仕事をされる方ですね…感心して、ずっと見ていました また見せてくださいお願いします❤🎉🎉🎉
How did u get the materials there for example on 52:30 There was a water container and on your drone shots there was no road near??
?
You don’t have to show to skin the animal , it’s so disturbing,
I'm incredibly impressed this was an amazing journey and I've learned a lot just setting here and watching the video, great job man.
Beautiful work my friend.
Did you really make your own mattress and I love your cabin,it look so warm and cozy ❤❤❤❤❤
Me gustan estos videos
Me encanta 💖 Saludos desde Paraguay ❤❤❤
Excelente 👌 Abrazos desde Paraguay ❤❤❤
So amazing 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Can't watch anymore. You killed an innocent animal that you did not need to kill. Im sure you have the money to buy food. I believe you did it to show off what a skilled killer you are. I'm not impressed.😡😢
If he buys meat its also from killed animals and if they don't suffer to death its ok because animals get killed everyday, also from other animals
Все круто.Но не пойму почему не бензопилой?Типо все своими руками?Откуда тогда утеплитель и доски?
