My kids love building, and love making forts, so we decided to build a portable tiny cabin! 

We'll do a daily video of our progress, so subscribe so you don't miss what's coming tomorrow.

We'll try to utilize any wood we have laying around in the yard first, the rest will come from Home Depot. Same will go for the electronics and hardware, we'll use what we have on hand and the rest will come from Amazon. 


Here are some requirements


- it needs to be warm enough to stand up to -30c, ( it get's cold on a breezy lake )

- be able to sleep 2 people ( maybe 3, but really that's pushing it ) 

- light enough to tow with our little side by side ( less than 1000 lbs )

- short enough to pull in and out of the garage ( 7 feet )

- have some type of skis to pull around on the snow
