This is a lot of work but the end result will inspire...Happy Trails!!

Not a bad build, I wouldn't mount the roll of paper towels right over the gas stove, that's an accident waiting to happen. It's probably pretty heavy for what it is...but I guess up there in AK he doesn't have access to cheap RV parts to build it lighter, so again, it's not bad!

He didn’t say whether it could be dismounted?

That is a rig I would not want. I would guess it is really heavy, probably heavier than my 9.5' Northstar Igloo. I have solar panels, 300 AH of AGM batteries, 40# propane and 35 gallons of water. He has a few gallons of water, no sink, no shower. Even just for drinking and cooking he is going to need water every couple of days.

Actually wood stove works very well. Two couches make king bed. He still uses it winter and summer.

Nonsense

Well all camper batieries are out side and vented that are wet cells ....but AGM or litium is another topic. It just looked like this guy went a ways to make something that we all know won't last forever but... it is where we all want to be...on your porch tipping one back....whatever your beverage. A very thoughtful build.

Battery outside? -- in Alaska? -- in winter?

Wood exterior houses have lasted hundreds of years .

Also wood exterior houses have collapsed in earthquakes. Now set a glass of water on your hood, drive down a smooth street.

So has every other type of building .

I liked it. It made me cold watching it. What happens when he finds a girlfriend? LOL Everything he needs though...

Super COOL! And in AK, nonetheless! Looks pretty well thought out and very cozy.
If I was pickin sht with the chickens, I'd say the residential windows (flying rocks) and wood siding are not very conducive to the weather and conditions that I haven't seen in his videos. The slush and mud/dirt through the shoulder seasons and summer would make a mess of it.
Guess a few good coats of stain would seal 'er up pretty well.
