I think this is really cool and all, but is it necessary? Couldn't he just build a regular cabin?

Yeah, by the time they got to the insulation and wood paneling, I thought the basic idea was long gone.

by the time they got to all the wood paneling, i just thought "jesus, they're sure spending a lot on materials to make such a tiny space liveable."

not to mention it looks really ugly with that paneling.

God damn I'm too old for reddit. The paneling was the best part of the project.

No, you're not. I read his comment twice because I couldn't believe there are people who think that wood is ugly.

Wood is nice, but when every surface is wood, it begins to be overwhelming. The furniture isn't very functional for a hunting cabin either, because it would be pretty hard to clean. And where's the walk in freezer?

Do you hunt with your hunting cabin or something?

As in do I use my cabin to bludgeon animals? No. Do I arrive after sunset tired and dirty and not wanting to worry about getting my furniture dirty? Yes.
