The outhouse

 
 

Note the ergonomics of the interface. The box is oriented with the edge to the front to give some room for legs. An old bucket was inserted into the whole to direct the stuff.

Construction material: discarded sides of logs bought at firewood prices.

Instead of cleaning the pit under the outhouse I've dug a whole behind it. The material flows there and dissipates. So far I've managed to use the outhouse for at least five years without cleaning the pit.

Inside the shower/sauna house. The bathtub was found in a dump. The stove like this presently costs around $800.
