We have WATER! / DIY sink countertop - QUICK and EASY 

We love how Ilya has become the star of the show. He was so shy and reluctant to speak when you started. Now we see how funny and personable he is. It is a joy to visit with you both every week.

Would put adjustable leveling feet on the bottom of each leg. Easy to install and adjust AND they keep the wood legs from touching the floor. Your cabinet design is a work of art. 👍👍👍

Very lovely job Ilia! The sink stand is very nice, sturdy and the wood matches the interior of the house. Running water is a very big deal. Much deserved time for a beer! Marina's final touches make it complete.

LOL! Best part was the circular saw and all the reactions from the safety brigade! 😄

There's nothing Ilya can't do. What a hard worker and great videographer!

Happy to see Anneke 🐈‍⬛❤

IIlia, “you’re the man! “. I was gonna say that and only that and then the last scene was so lovely. What a nice job you guys did on that area. 👍👍👍🇨🇦🇺🇦

You are a modern day, european Pa Ingalls. He was a master of any skill needed to live well in the American wilderness. You have such an amazing array of skills. It is incredible to watch you learn yet another new skill. It is a joy to see the wonderful home you and Marina are building. It will last another hundred years into the future, still caring for your family. 😊

Might I suggest you seal your wood as well as possible and then use silicone caulk to seal all of the joints. Worked beautifully for the butcher block countertops I finished a few months back.

It's an "only Illia" show! The sink looks wonderful. The tiny house is turning out so nicely.

That turned out much better looking than I expected. You two amaze me!

You have such a wonderful husband. He is a keeper. God love him!!!

Illia is getting better and better at his carpentry!!! A lovely place to wash hands!

The sink looks so nice! Great job!! Enjoyed the video!

OMG! Holding that skill saw so close to your arms while cutting…no, no no! If you saw your son doing that, you would have a heart attack. Use a small hand saw for those projects or get someone to help hold whatever you are cutting. That’s the Grandmother in me speaking ❤😢

They got water!!!

The little details make a difference, the top for the basin looks great.👍

Awesome job. Many blessings to you and your family and keep safe 🙏

Illinois did a fantastic job as usual! Congratulations on running water inside the tiny house.

It is beautiful and I think the different wood colors are perfect. Great job Illia!!!

Illia you have done a great job with the cabinet for the sink. ❤❤❤😊😊😊

Nice bathroom cabinet. I like it darker looks like furniture. Great job already has flowers, candles and nice soap dish. Nothing like Hot and Cold running water. See you next week.

Delicious looking pie🥰🥰🥰

Nice work, looking Good. Craftsmanship takes Patience, you have it.

As usual job well done. Both on the pie and the sink.

Great video great music.

A pleasure to watch you work!

You will soon wonder how you managed without your sink .The convenience of just giving your hands a quick wash or rinsing out something without fuss and bother is wonderful. It all looks very trim and nice too ,with the wood cupboard on the wall beside it and everything coming together marvellously.

Measure it, cut it, glue it, screw it, sand it, oil it, let's do that! Great work Ilya. 🪚🪛🙂

That was so great Illia and Mariana thank you for your time and sharing never miss a video and can't wait for next video thank you.

The little boiler under the counter works great, I did it after finding that running from the bathroom all across the house was just not efficient.👍

Beautiful ‼️great craftsmanship Ilja!👏👍❤️🤗

Illia is so funny about himself😂

I enjoy your persistence and stamina, but when you woodwork I get the shivers... The result is wonderfully pleasing then!

Looks beautiful 👍🏼🇨🇦❤️😉

Illia is living the life...gets pie.

Very nice countertop!!! 😍

Glad to see you didn't have leaks where you used the Teflon tape, everyone I've watched lately hasn't been very successful using it. I don't recall having any problems using it.👍

Beautiful couple, beautiful work, your doing so well,I hope your able to continue and finish your dream, HOWEVER!! THAT CUT YOU MADE ON THE TABLE LEGS LOOKED FINGER LICKING DANGEROUS!!😮 take care cheers from Nana in NZ 😊

Oh, your book!! That needs to stay with the house when you die!

Good work 👍😁.

Great job!

Well done Illia, it looks wonderful 👏

As always, great job.

Your skills & attention to detail are impressive! Wonderful to see that u take ur time & put some love into it!

Great work on the sink cabinet. I noticed that in the sink drain system you didn't include a P-trap. I don't know what it's like in the EU, but typically that's an important part of a drain system in the US. It prevents the sewer gas from coming up through the drain system. I'm not sure what this system drains to, but it might be a future improvement.

👍Beautiful result at very little cost plus it’s already produced a pumpkin crop 😂🍻

One more item checked off. Great work👍👍

The squash you grabbed is a butternut squash used mostly in savoury dishes like pasta, soups, stews. The smaller pie pumpkins are needed for pies. Clean them out, cut in half, roast/bake upside down on a baking sheet for about 1/2 hr until soft. Scoop out the flesh (no seeds or stringy bits) and then blend in a blender to be smooth. Drain the purée through some tea towels or ‘cheese cloth’ to get excess water out. Now the purée is ready to be used in a pie, or cookies, or cake or loaf.

Illia, you are an artist with wood. Hello from Austin Texas USA

Hi, das Möbel sieht so schön aus. Du bist ein echter Handwerker...

OK. we need the recipe for your pumpkin pie, it looks delicious.

You are ingenious. The sink and stand looks lovely. Well done.

❤😊looks great

👍 Nice job, sharp looking.

Illya, is there nothing you can't do. You are a star!

Nice job! Blessings.

Clamping the cabinet base to the heavy table saw next to you will make it easier to straighten the front with a plane.

Looks great 👍👍🇩🇰🇩🇰☕️☕️😁🐈

Watching you mix the pie filling, seeing the ingredients going in, I could imagine the smell. I haven't cooked for a while, but that made me think about starting again.❤

Schöne Arbeit gemacht einfach Spitze 👍🤗😉😊🙋‍♂️

That was butternut squash pie you made. Butternut squash is super, super delicious.

Sink looks great

Fabulous pumpkin pie, the messy ones always taste the best. I too love pumpkins! The sink cabinet looks so good, I like that it’s darker than the floor, it adds a color contrast, so lovely. I’m also in the protect Ilia and Marina club. Be careful with all those new power tools dear friend! 😮 Stabilize everything 1st until you have a safe grip and nothing wobbles… or moves really except you. The floor is amazing the door is so beautiful. Fanciest shed ever. Lol

Outstanding job guys 👍!!!

The sweet sound of running water inside the house! Don't worry over the sink stand stain color being darker. Just put a pretty little rug there and enjoy all the color contrast.

Недавно начал смотреть ваш канал. Отличная командная работа! Илья ваще красава, мастер на все руки.👍

Illia, You are so creative. The sink looks awesome. One more thing finished. So happy for you guys.

Im a bit tired tonight and don't. Know if ive asked you before but what do you do. With all those Pumpkins 😂

You need a "p" trap for the sink. Its to prevent sewer gases from coming back up through the drain.("S" shaped but called "P" trap)

Thanks for the video!

Ilia, you need to give a u shape to the sewer pipe to keep the odors away

Don't forget your pee trap under the sink. It prevents sewer gas from coming up through the drain and into your house.

A job well done by a master! 👍

You're amazing, NC USA 🇺🇸

Very good! Would you be using some kind of caulking around the base of the sink and seal the wood to make it waterproof? With all that pumpkin there are so many delicious things to make with it! I love pumpkin pie (and yours looks 'rustic' and it's beautiful!) but also pumpkin muffins, pumpkin bread, and soups are delicious! You can also make a pumpkin puree instead of mashed potatoes. Here's an easy recipe for pumpkin soup: 6 cups chicken stock 4 cups pumpkin puree 1 cup chopped onion 1 clove garlic, minced 1 ½ teaspoons salt ½ teaspoon chopped fresh thyme 5 whole black peppercorns ½ cup heavy whipping cream 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley Place chicken stock, pumpkin, onion, garlic, salt, thyme, and peppercorns in a large pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, 30 minutes. Transfer soup to a blender or food processor in batches; blend until smooth. Return soup to the pan and bring to a boil; reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Stir in heavy cream. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley. If you make extra pumpkin soup, you can freeze it for up to three months. I would suggest freezing in batches so you only need to thaw what will be served. Just thaw in the fridge overnight and next day reheat on the stove before serving. I don't know if the farmer next door would allow it, but a little pumpkin is also a delicious treat for cows. And I loooove roasted pumpkin seeds as a snack!

Suggest to do drawers in stead of shelves under vanity for comfort.

Greeting from 🇨🇦 Love your show. Not sure how you upload this into RU-vid. I notice closed caption or subtitle is not include for most recent videos. For years they are included except most recent. I’m Deaf and I depend on reading what you all says. You family are amazing Thanks

Wishing you a Happy Halloween from Florida, USA!

Adding two doors in the front of the bathroom cabinet will look nicer and can be storage for cleaning supplies etc…

The plumbing is so different than what I have installed in Canada. The installation process would have me putting stainless piping, including a P Trap under the drain to avoid any back-gassing from the line. Other than that, great work, looks nice!

Śliczna szafka, brawo.

beautiful piece of furniture.

Once I recovered from seeing you use the bloody saw over your arm , yes it had a guard BUT your arm didn't!!! It was quite enjoyable. Please try and remember your renovating a farm house and making a family home but you need both arm's to do it .😮

I would put adjustable foot levelers on each leg. Will make it easier to adjust as things settle.

Nicely done , ❤

Pshew...hand/s too d#@* close to saw blade! Big mama from 🇺🇲 speaks truth. Echoing Grandmother. Sink is sturdy now with shim. Proud of you Illya 🎉. Nice "dressing" of area, Marina. Glad to see Aneka and grey kitty, too. Big step getting all the bells and whistles hooked up with no leaking! Milestone, guys! Huge🎉🎉😊😊❤❤!

Illia, nice job! You are so funny too!😅

Look's great ,well done

Love your sink😊

I'm curious. Is a "P trap" not required in your building code? And how are you venting the drain?

Looks not bad !

Well done! Klein advies: de kraan dichtdraaien als je de zeep in je handen smeert. Scheelt liters! ;-)

pva glue is best dealt with while still liquid as a damp cloth will take care of cleanup as opposed to much scraping and sanding it is also better to wipe excess pva glue while wet as it shows in finishes if left to soak into fibre and cure. thanks for the videos

Lovely!

Great Job Illia

The sink is very ice!

Well done.

Looks like that's getting pretty close to move in ready, just in time for winter! Which begs the question... What do you have planned for heating/cooling in that space? Just a space heater and some fans since it's a temporary space, or something more permanent? I would have thought a mini-split heat pump would work very efficiently in that space, but it didn't look like you wired for that at all, and it can be really expensive, which doesn't seem to be the plan in there.

Hey Illia, great work! But what about a vent stack? Will you have any issues with the plumbing without a vent? Or does that not matter for a simple sink?
