Watch as I build the Samurai Cedar Hot Tub!!! It's been a dream of mine for 10 years and FINALLY I am almost done! Check it out! - Jak na to + styl
Your projects, workmanship and videos are ALWAYS a big SLAP in my brain !! And... I love it xD
It really is beautiful man, and I can just imagine that lovely cedar scent pervading the workshop while you’re making it. 😊
Can't wait to this finished!! It's great to see you'll finally be able to enjoy it
That is just awesome! Wish I had the time, skill, and place to build things like this! Cant wait to see how you finish it!
I cant express how much you inspired me...!!!
Really nice looking and that wood is just perfect!
That was the most inspiring music I've ever heard for a hot tub.
Your woodworking skills are the best.
Beautiful. You did another great video. Thank you so much. This is exactly what I was looking for. I don't know much about wood working, but I will give things a try. Thanks again.
SWEET tub, going to be so great in a nice ZEN style garden setting. Cant wait to see it finished. ahhhh just imagine the steam slowly raising off the surface, little chimes in back ground..... and the kids jumping in and yelling and screaming and splashing water ALL over, hahaha enjoy
you're amazing! this is the quality content I subscribed for.
Seriously nice work. Looks amazing.
Good on ya mate, appreciate you still releasing free content even with all the effort and expense involved in doing it.
The color variation in the cedar planks make this thing ridiculously beutiful. I can only imagine if you apply a wood preservatives how much more awesome it would look!
I built one of these for a dunk tank for our town to use to raise money at functions. I used 5/4 cedar decking from a local mill. I didn't bother to use dried because of it's use. The tank was 5 ft high and 5 ft diameter. I used 1 in band iron with welded on threaded rod for adjustment. If I was to do it again, I would have used a spring behind the nuts to keep tension on it when it was dry. I used a double tongue and grove bit to lock them together. I know the correct way is to use a concave and convex bit but I'm cheap. That would be two bits, I would maybe never use again. I'll use the double many times in the future making slabs..
So, long term, the thing has lasted 12 years so far, has been stored outside in the winter and has not rotted. The bottom has been banged up alot from moving it around but she is still making local organizations money.
Great video and look forward to seeing the next.
One good thing about dried is when it expands you get a tighter joint. Honestly, though, the amount of water would make even fresh sawn heartwood expand so it really doesn't matter :)
I've been waiting a long time for this.
@@matthewray6008 if seen 10 foot Western Red Cedar sink like a stone when dumped in the salt chunk here on Vancouver Island. It doesn't get any wetter then that.
Oh damn. How much did that cost in materials?
That sounds like an expensive build for a charity use...
I did something similar for a church near me, when I was about 16 I offered to help make a few attractions one of them was a dunk tank too and we used an UN-USED preowned septic tank and just cut it in half. It was made of HDPE, the same stuff as milk jugs and cost us about 200$ because it was for a good cause. We got a dunk tank, a small dog pool, and used the middle band as a sign above the tank so it could be seen from 360.
We considered making one, but none of us had the skill required and I guessed it would be absurdly expensive, considering we were trying to raise money and not spend it.
All in all, I'd say we made the right choice... but I'm curious how much we saved over a wood build.
@@DanteYewToob about 400$. I scrap snowsleds as a side hustle so all the mechanism was built from suspension parts for free. I own a glass shop so i used a piece of 4 x 5, mr10 for the guard. That was 150$ my cost.
The other thing i would change was to put a fixed set of wheels on the back like a hand truck.
Jessie...! Once again...!!! Beautiful...
Soooo nice!! Love your work!
All that in just two and a half days.. That's amazing.. Make a coffee table and it's taking me a week..lol. Eager to see part 2.
It's pretty crazy how productive he is.
I also feel your pain on long term projects. I make high end arizona-mesquite furniture and cutting boards as a hobby. Even at full tilt it's weeks before it's ready. The agony of the labor is offset by the rewards it yields.
I bet it smells amazing 😊
Nice work. Waiting for the part two. Even at this stage it looks beatiful.
Awesome! The cedar is so beautiful. I'll bet it smells amazing in there!
That was sooo fun to watch!
That's why i started woodworking because i wanted to build my own hottub :D
Mistakes are always good as long as you learn from them and improve on the second attempt. Good luck with the build
Fantastic build!!
Holy hell that looks awesome... Great work
Bro you build so many things. I’d be happy if I finished a bird house in a week. It’s tough to make time. Much love.
You’re a legend mate. Greetings from London.
Awesome work!
Wow. Really nice so far. 👍👍
Wow so beautiful man!!
Just shouted from excitement when I saw the thumbnail!! 🤤🤤🕺
That's nice recently did a project where a tank builder did similar process for rain water collection. Just an awesome technique well worth the work in my opinion.
A friend of mine builds his with a cove on one side and rounds over the other side. It's a nice touch. And uses Old Growth Western Red Cedar off of his woodlot on Northern Vancouver Island. You should get a life time of enjoyment from yours.
Awesome overload!!!
always so excellent! thanks!!
My uncle was the first person to build these tubs in LA and Hollywood. He even made the decks of wood to walk out to it. His company made Millions he did lose his hearing partially. Woodworking make some great men I miss him. Thanks for the how to that made me think of him.
Looks great!
I literally could smell your shop during that. Thanks.
Amazing as usual
I would love to see all of the things you have made in one video as a tour of the property!
When you were running those tongues over the DADO stack, your fingers man! OMG. Started to cringe. Love the tub 🤘
Wow, just wow!!!
Cool project. I didn't know that you could adjust the fence angle on a jointer.
Interested to know where you got the cover for your hot tub. Was it custom made? Also, how warm does the water stay in the winter? Would there be a way to insulate the hot tub to make it more energy efficient? Beautiful workmanship.
that look amazing!!!
Wow, love it
I dissed your music on the last video so the least I can do is say thanks for the much better music on this one! My ears thank you!
Beautiful ofuro style tub. Wondering how to mod this for an off-grid situation.
IT’S FINALLY HERE OH MY LAWD
That is massive! I love it! The wood looks gorgeous! I didn’t know I wanted one but I do now! 😀
QUE PRÁCTICA SU DEMOSTRACION, MUY HERMOSA, GRACIAS.
Hey samurai! looks fricken sweet! I was wondering if you will be adding any timber framing tutorials to the school in the future? Keep up the inspiring work man, Nico
Love it. How are you heating it?
What a good video!!!
Beautiful Hot Tub, just in time for this west coast winter that's coming in. I'm guessing that's going under the new deck, so it's sheltered? Nicely done 👍
Very nice! Winter is coming and you sir, you are prepared! Are you planing a heating system for this bad boy (something along the lines of copper tubing with an open fire..)?
Quality craftsmanship Samurai...let me know when it's finished so I can test it...😉😉😉👍👍👍
strange people from the internet inviting themselves to bathe with you, life goals
Hi Samurai, planning on building a barrel sauna and wondering where you got those stainless bands from?
Apologies if that was already answered in the comments
Thanks!
Beautiful tub!
What was the tool used to cut out the base??
Nice video, so on your staves, how do they stay together ?
I built my own hot tub a year ago. Make sure those screws are at least M16 (~20mm diameter). Also you should reinforce the two outer most floor pannels. Those might come off if you keep them like that! It will most likely not be holding the water in for the first 2 days as the wood needs to expand. Make sure you loosen the screws a bit after that.
Nice brother!!!
Awesome! We've been planning on getting a similar hot tub - but, now that I've seen this video, I'm making it myself. Thanks so much for the inspiration. The money we save on the hot tub will pay for the extra tools I'll need. Perfect... Now, as far as the water treatment goes, I love hot tubbing but I've discovered I'm allergic to chlorine. So, we are going to use a product called Simplesilver. It's a once-a-year(!) spa treatment that is gentle on your skin and means you don't get the chlorine smell. Anyway, thanks for the building tips. I help my Simplesilver tip helps you too. Thanks.
Amazing! I plan to build my own I was hoping you had released plans for this however I don’t see any on your website? Let me know if I am possibly just looking in the wrong place, thanks!
What are you going to use for bands?
That looks great should look good next to the Japanese Shed you made?
You should look into saltwater hot tub systems. I can't believe how much better mine is. I haven't had to add any chemicals in two years. Just added a little more of the salt as I add water. I'm talking about tablespoons. No chlorine smell is a big plus.
Two things;
One, always shower BEFORE getting in. (Antiperspirant, lotions will clog the filters.) My dishwasher does a great job of cleaning the filters.
Two, clean filters often.
You will find that a good saltwater system can go years without changing the water if you keep up on filter maintenance and showers before entry. We use ours year round and haven't had to do anything more than this. The type of salt used has no taste and a quick rinse afterwards is all that's needed to remove any left on us. It leaves your skin silky, not dried out. It's a Sodium Bromide system.
That's awesome man. I'm probably on day one of year one of the ten year dream before I'll build my own too! Actually I'm more on year four...
Where can I find a list of your power tools: Jointer, planer, table-saw, etc. I'm about to start equipping my own woodworking shop and would like to know which tools are the best, or good starting power tools to start.
Youre the best! Want to learn from you. Have seen you do all kinds of joinery etc. Now.. can we get a video where you build something more old school? For example a stol, or a rocking chair, old school style, old school technique?..
So what is that your cutting the base with? Looks like ridged brand. Hooked up to dust extraction.
@3:44 just killin it! Nice
Thanks for the great video. How has this held up over the years? I had a cedar tub when I lived in New England and it had a vinyl liner. I found this to be great in many respects even though difficult to install.
How has it been in terms of leaking, aging, standing up to elements, etc?
great... now I'm also dreaming of building a cedar wood hot tub
Do you have any info on when your vest will be for sale?
that looks so nice… one day i'll make one too :)
is there a straight forward formula to know what angle the staves edge bevel needs to be?
Is this wood that you milled up?
Looks really good!
Agreed the quality of wood the samarai uses is all clear where you.getall this beauty timber "whistle" ..
I like the music you played
There is an irony in waiting for wood to dry so it can be milled with the intent to make it wet again.
Are the "wall" board edges milled at a slight angle to form the circle or are the faces square?
I couldn’t get a look what tool was that you used to cut the circle for the base of the tub?
Starting at 2:22 what type of tool is that you are using to cut the outer edge? Dual handle jigsaw of some sort?
I would like to hear the story behind acquiring the clear red cedar - where I live in southern Alberta, the odds of easily acquiring material like that would be about zero.
Mal wieder spitze gelungen 👍
Awesome
Legend I wish I even had the space for them tools let alone the tools!!
Check out the hot tub Manor wood built
Can you use this for cold water as well?
Make sure not to spill any Chernobly in there, or you might find yourself in another time! LOL. Looks great, can’t wait for part two!
degree did you set the planer to for the wall pieces?
Hey Samurai how much did you spend in the materials for this build? cheers
How much did the cedar cost? Curious how much it leaked when filled
Just looking at your video right now, but wondering, what is the hammering at 3:40 for?
nice! very nice!!
Would you be able to have it dug into the ground? If so, would you need extra stuff you need to do to the work? Cheers!
Looks great. I would a cedar hot tub .
love it,
