I just completed the XL Sauna build this week. I want to note my experience in building things is limited to none. Before I started using Joes plans I realized I almost had no tools! (Apart from being an IKEA assembly pro). Joes instructions were clear and simple to follow for a first timer.
I was able to complete the entire build in two weeks. And although it is not perfect (user error not the guide) it’s fully functional and works GREAT.
I really appreciate these guides, as my finances made it so I couldn’t purchase an ice bath or a Sauna, and the only good gym that had both was an hour away from my house. And yes, I did commute 3-4 days a week to said gym. Now I can go to my local gym 2 minutes away, and pop back home for my sauna and ice bath!
I highly recommend this guide to anyone. I wouldn’t fret if your a first timer when it comes to building, literally if I can do it anyone can!
