    Whilst a new washer and dryer will not have been cheap, compared to using a launderette (Expensive), they will pay for themselves in no time. Plus you gain so much extra time (no trips to the Launderette) to develop your dream. Love seeing every little bit coming together, a new laundry room, a greenhouse, a garden, little projects that make a BIG difference, and soon a small house. Wishing you every success in your future endeavors. Love from Yorkshire.

    Dirt (,muck) and mud is the reason farmers wear coveralls, and people before washing machines wore aprons and sleevecovers. Using a catch the dirt layer as your outer layer of clothes will save wear on your clothes and a lot of washing.

    The little laundry shed was a great idea to save money in the long run. AND you can wash Maggie’s blankets too. Saw the sign at the launderette about dog blankets. :( I understand where they are coming from, but still annoying.
    Now, you might kick yourselves later that you didn’t build a covered porch for your shed. Then you can do laundry in all weather! Of course, you can always add that later to the front and enclose it too when you have the funds.

    Putting the old slab to use for the washing machine was a great idea and that was a lovely laundry cabin you made well done. Great that you can do it off grid so kind of Anker to send you their product as they are very expensive to buy.

    You can build a drying canopy using the same panels that are on the greenhouse. Can be a little taller than the washing machine house you just built. Leave a 1m gap around the sides at the bottom for air to go through.
    On the most overcast, wettest days in December, a pair of jeans will be dry in 2 days. Sunny day and they are dry in 1.5 hours or less.
    Use your tumble dryer for 10mins then to get the last bit of dampness out of them in winter if you need to.
    I use this system in the Irish Midlands, with very similar weather to you.
    It will free up the Anker for other things during construction.
    Great project, I always look forward to the videos.

    Great use of all the leftover materials. Not only will you save the money on using the laundrymat but the fuel going to and from.....and the time. Anker really need to use Maggie in some of their advertising. A picture of her next to their different units would make them sell like hot cakes. You are really starting to put your mark on the property and should be proud. Cheers from Carol in Australia.

    Even your washing station is a beautiful piece of work….what a great way to use up your surplus materials plus create a money & time saving facility for your site. Those power stations aren’t cheap at all so it was super good of Anker to help out….great job you two! Another brilliant episode & another step forwards. Hoping your getting on with the cabin, and look forward to your next video. Marcus

    Hopefully you’ll get a time of sunny days and we’ll see a clothesline being built. 😊 The onsite laundry will save time & money.
    Congrats on another step forward 👍

    Loving your laundry shack, it’ll save you loads of time and money. If you have any membrane left over, line your newly made staging shelves otherwise the ply will warp and split open when watering your plants and won’t last long. (The wood shelves that came with the plant staging are made of special ply that withstands watering)

    Love the laundry! I hope you have a good CCTV and security system to prevent the loss of the expensive contents and any tools you have on site going walkabouts. Lots of people watch your videos and maybe one “bad egg”.
    Hopefully too your enthusiasm at starting courgettes and tomatoes pays off, as it’s still a few weeks to last frost date.

    • @CampOutWest
      @CampOutWest  Před 5 měsíci +1

      Thanks Frances. That's the main thing we worry about living here and putting stuff on CZcams 😅 Can't wait to see where the garden is in a few months time!

    Being able to do your laundry on site must be a game changer. It will be interesting to discover how much you can save. I am inspired by the Anker unit and will be taking a look. ❤

    @celesthoutman4978 Před 5 měsíci

    Great build! This will make your life so much easier. I don't know how cold it gets where you live...maybe insulating the shed is something you want to think about. To prevent damage caused by frozen water.

  • @KarlKarsnark
    @KarlKarsnark Před 5 měsíci

    The top of the shed might be a good place to put a few cheap solar panels so you can charge the battery pack while it's in use, or being stored in the shed. They may help protect the roof a wee bit too.

    • @CampOutWest
      @CampOutWest  Před 5 měsíci

      Thanks Karl 😄 lucky for us Anker sent us some solar panels, which we have installed on the top 🎉 (if you watch the ad section in the middle of this video we show them in place)

    Love the laundry room. Nothing like throwing in a load or two or laundry and not have to wait at the laundrette. And those are hard to find in a small village in Italy. The green house shelves will really come in handy. Love the progress. Looking forward to your next video. Ciao from Italy.

  • @amgroves76

    Always a good time of year to get the hands in the dirt and plant! My dads tomatoes have gone. Mental, hope your veggies do too. Power station looks crazy, hope it works for you.

    @annalemmon2855 Před 5 měsíci

    Great little laundry shed! Yes, you won't want it getting too hot in there, so the vents are good, but in the winter, when it gets really cold, you might need to keep the dryer warm. I used to have mine in the garage, and it just refused to work when the temperature dropped below zero. Might be the type of dryer, though, I'm not sure. Having those facilities on site will free up so much of your time. Thanks for another great video 😊
