In this episode Olin is showing us his self-built truck cabin. The build was actually an engineering research project to prove the possibility of using wood only and no nails or screws to construct a durable cabin. It’s the very first time in the world when someone impregnated 3mm/ 0.11inch plywood to increase its lifespan and made a strong but very light-weight composite material out of it. Overall it is the first cabin built this way and Olin had only five-ish months to make this project happen and the end result has been a big success.
