Self-Heating Outdoors Tub For Bathing Au-Naturel in Nature
Posted by Kit Eaton at 3:00 AM on November 6, 2008
It's not a teacup, though it kinda looks like one, and it's a lot more elegant than the Mont Blanc jacuzzi... Dutch Tub's a self-heating outdoor bath. Well, I say self-heating, but you have to light a fire in the basket in that heating coil, but then convection mixes the water around in the tub for you, and the temp is adjustable. It'll take about two and a half hours to warm 700 litres of cold water though, so if you're planning on *ahem* entertaining a guest to a quick dip in the snowy outdoors, you'd better plan ahead.

@nutbastard:
although what i was going to do was have a big metal boiler over the fire pit with a hose at the top leading into the water, so the steam would heat the tub and make bubbles.

i had something like this dreamed up, but it was for this outdoor spot on top of the mountain. theres a giant sandstone rock, and theres a big tub-shaped hole in the top next to a smaller, round 'fire pit'. I wanted to haul a shitload of water up there and work out a system of heating it, creating a hot tub out of the rock.
theres always next year, i guess.
