A Man Builds his Workshop in a FOREST

Notable Forest Workshop Builds

1. Primitive Technology’s Thatched Workshop
   The creator of the Primitive Technology YouTube channel constructed a thatched-roof workshop using only materials sourced from the wild. This open-sided structure, built over five weeks, provides shelter from rain while allowing for ventilation, making it ideal for future projects.

2. Alex Wild’s Dugout Shelter in Sweden
   Inspired by a hut he discovered during a walk, Alex Wild, a furniture seller from Sweden, built a dugout wooden shelter in the forest. Working alone, he crafted this private haven, spending two days a week there to reconnect with nature.

3. Don Williams’ Off-Grid Timber Frame Barn
   In Virginia’s Highland County, Don Williams constructed a 36′ x 40′ timber frame barn workshop. Powered by a hydro-generator and solar panels, this off-grid workshop serves as a space for woodworking and teaching traditional crafts.
