Happy Birthday Forest. I aspire to always be the type of guy who will come help his friend build a shed on his birthday.

Also it's incredibly wild to me that in the middle of episode 4 of a cabin build we take a 45 second break to get National Geographic quality footage of beautiful Alaskan wilderness complete with up close video of a Grizzly bear.

Your narration and explanation were outstanding. No one on KZread has done it like that.

"Happy Birthday" Forest.

God love you for not dropping that window 😮 Bravo 👏 Good idea using your truck. Was still a heavy task. I was hoping you didn’t break it 😲 Great job so far in your build. 🙋🏻‍♀️🇨🇦

With house wrap, you want to wrap the entire structure and then cut an X in your windows and then fold it inward and staple it to the window frame for better coverage. This way you will decrease the chance of window leaks.

You don’t want the top to wrap in, the top lands on your nailing flange

I thought the same… this is what they do/did on „this old house“

You should always cut your house wrap a couple inches longer around your windows & doors and cut 45 degree corners so it can be folded into your sills. It’s done so water doesn’t get behind your Tyvek. I loved watching your videos. Sheeting a roof always sucks. We live in the Northeast and I never sheet my cabin roofs. I bought an Amish built shed a few years back and noticed that they never sheet the metal roofs, they strap them horizontally, then box them between the straps. That saves you big bucks with not having to spend $60-$70 dollars for a sheet for OSB or even more for plywood. It looks great! Keep the videos coming and thanks for sharing your progress!

Happy Birthday Forest 🎉 Thanks for the help!

Happy Birthday Forest 🎂. Does your wife have a KZread channel? It would be neat to see her cabin. I am glad her and Forest are a lot of help.

See u fish and reminds me of a movie.. Where are the rivers Run north.. If you haven't watched it, You should..👍 It's right up your alley.

👍👍👍👏 thumbs up for Forest.. helping a friend on 🍻 on his birthday..🤔🍺🍺🍺🍺

Norman should have his own youtube channel!

Honestly helping a buddy build a new cabin would be a great birthday in my opinion. Happy Birthday Forest!

Just now watching this, but happy birthday to Forrest.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY Forest! LOL

Norman is a very pretty dog

That's looking great. Can't believe you put that side window in on your own 😮. Nice to see the fishing break & your gratitude 😊

You forgot the waterproof tape that goes on all the connections of paper and window ledges and door frame.

As a local, I thought I knew roughly where you were, until that last drone shot. Did you just throw that in there to confuse internet stalkers? Lol. Very nice channel, there have been a lot of new "Alaskan Homestead" channels popping up over the last year or two, but this is definitely one of the better ones. I love that you do your own music.

window install 🎉

That was a great video. And wow, that window install, yikes they are heavy windows! Glad it went well for you. 😮❤

Happy Birthday Forest! Great friends are a few and far between.

Good job. I enjoyed that. When you came close to the camera at the end, I felt your tiredness. The struggle is real.

Wish I was that awesome

I lived your cabin , a lot windows, a lot sunshine,

Happy Birthday Forest!!!

Happy bday forrest

Love to see the rest of the cabin build love from Ohio

Looking really good. 😊 Happy Birthday Forrest 🙂

Good job Matt. Building and handling materials by one self is a learning test and experience. That's one stout bunk house. The roof is narrow enough I don't think snow will be too heavy on it. May look like a hump in the yard some winter dark day. Absolute beautiful place. Might put some spacer blocks between door frame and wall studs just to make it a little more solid. You got it dryed in. Big goal and accomplishment. Now you can work on it in any weather. Good music. Take care . See you up there.

You can cut the roll of tyvek while it’s rolled up the dimension you need . You don’t have to unroll it Use circle saw

Happy Birthday Horace!😋 y'all are doing a fine job!

Happy birthday Forest, have some more.

Happy birthday Forest !!! And many more dude !

great music and good production quality (getting better all the time).

Great Cabin . Thanks for sharing the video

Happy Happy Birthday Forest!

Happy birthday, That's nice of you to help your friend, good job.👏👏👍

🎉Happy Birthday Buddy

That “Crazy idea that just might work” would have been a great idea for your roofing as well!! I was wondering where your tool was for the big window was located! Good thing it was within reach!😂

Wonderful and wow that window but good resourceful thinking! Is that your wife's cabin at the end???? 😉Whosever it is its sweet! the hike looked awesome the fishing, wow...that bear! the cabin- so cool to see this build Happy Belated Birthday Forest! What a trip...thanks Matt!🪕

Hi, your videos are really cool and I can’t stop watching them actually 😌 I also have a couple of questions regarding the cabin life: How do you deal with trash/waste management? Where do you wash your clothes? Would be nice to know more about the simple living in cabin and looking forward to see more adventures in Alaska :) greetings from Slovakia, Europe

Happy Birthday Forrest....

I wish I lived in Alaska. I totally would come over and help you. Did you end up caulking the big window?

Good job!
