Building a DIY Tiny Sauna On a Budget

What happens here

After constructing the 2x6 base frame, a full sheet of Oriented Strand Board (OSB) sheathing is carefully placed on top of the frame. The OSB panel is aligned to cover the entire 5ft by 5ft area. A pneumatic nail gun (Ryobi brand shown) is then used to rapidly and securely attach the OSB to the 2x6 joists of the base frame. Nails are driven at regular intervals along the edges and across the field of the panel to ensure maximum adhesion and structural rigidity, preventing any flex. Any excess OSB overhanging the frame edges is then trimmed using a circular saw for a clean, flush finish. A level is used again to confirm the newly installed subfloor is even.

Goal: A large OSB panel is positioned over the base frame and securely fastened using a pneumatic nail gun, providing a solid floor for the sauna.
