Outhouses
Outhouses
The outhouse kit is heavily constructed of solid wood and plywood. The floor, wall, and roof framing is 2×3 & 2×4 fir lumber. The walls are covered with tapered lap siding over plywood sheathing. The interior floor is 5/8” plywood.
The outhouse kit is delivered partially assembled and pre-stained on the exterior and interior. The walls and floor are pre-built panels. The windows and door are completely assembled. You just screw it together and attach the plywood and steel roof.
Check out “Humanure handbook” for sawdust toilet concepts. We have lots of sawdust to share.
You can add a compositing toilet, sawdust toilet, or dig a hole. Let us know your plan and we’ll build the right outhouse for you.
