Using epoxy and milled cedar, I built a one-of-a-kind door for the cabin. I also built a set of insulated shutters, and I took some time to enjoy the fall colors while I waited for the epoxy to cure.

I've spent many years watching you grow as a young man. You've endured some incredible family tragedies and my heart goes out to you. As I watched you plying your skills during this video I thought of all that your father taught you and how you are now teaching others those skills and growing more as a craftsman. Your father's legacy will live on through you. Also, we as the viewers also get to learn from you and your father. Personally I get my Canadiana from you as I drift into my senior years in the Philippines. Thank you so much. ♥

Since the first time I happened across your channel years ago while you were still collecting timber and before your first tractor I have been awed at the quality of your work, on the cabin, stewarding the land, side builds. In every single episode you provide such intimate looks into nature and wildlife through your eye and ear for it. Always a perfect amount of both to put my mind in a Zen like place. I thank you for that.

This guy is as handy as a pocket in a shirt. Makes things that absolutely beautiful out of wood that most people would throw away. Love this cabin. Really a shame your dad not around to help with the finishing touches. I’m sure he’s there somewhere. He be proud dad.
Patience is really a virtue. The door is going to be a show piece for sure. You are good at what you do my friend.
I think that the shutters are a great idea and I agree that the diamond pattern on the exterior is very pleasing. The epoxy door is an amazing piece of artistry! Just WOW! My favorite part of today’s episode is the camera attached to the end of the the log where it remained during the first pass of the mill and then still attached to the plank we saw it’s perspective during another pass of the mill. Very fun!

That door is beyond beautiful, totally speaks to the heart and soul of the amazing detail of that magnificent cabin build.
Words can’t do justice to the door…. And the shutters you just designed on the spot!!! I am always in awe of your God given gifts of design and craftsmanship. You just make us all want to get busy and build something!! God bless you and your family.
I am 78 and my husband is 84. We'll have the next birthdays in December. We got Simplisafe a couple of years ago and I installed the components quickly. What a sense of security they provide. Our children are 3 or so hours away. Neighbors are young and have small children so we are not close. I also bought a Freedom 911 bulb for the deck. There is a remote control that sets the light flashing red/blue if we call 911. This makes the house more obvious to rescuers. We feel a great deal more secure. A couple of times my husband opened a door before turning the alarm off. There is an instant response by an operator to see what we need and the police showed up at once. That's what we need to sleep better. Just unsolicited story of our experience.
Love,love the door and the shutters .beautiful work …your Dad would be proud .
Absolutely gorgeous door Mr. Outsider!
Whoever was your math teacher, needs to be proud!
Every time I one over you cabin videos comes up I have just gotten home form my shop fixing a car or truck. It makes me wonder some days. My late father in law was a carpenter and I have his shop now. Makes me think that God is telling me something.
Good Morning young man! I’ve missed you 💚and your skills! Look at the aerial fall view….SimpliGorgeous 🍁🍂🔥 I love the sound of rain That door is beautiful You do amazing work! God Bless you too✌🏾
I love this guy's perseverance and faithful follow thru on thru on this process of love! I am sorry his dad is not there for the finish but, every time you look around the the cabin, you see him there! Best of luck to you and your family and thanks for the wonderful, fun to watch content!
I know you're not half-way done to get the quality finish I've always known you to get, but it looks fantastic in its uncluttered, refined simplicity. It promises 'elegance'. Everything I see about your cabin, as it appears even now, speaks 'class', fine craftsmanship and artistry.

I BUILT A Chalet in Washington State... the live-in permit required 2 exits---they wouldnt accept a window...so I made the window into a door
There are so many businesses/KZread channels whose sole purpose is working with epoxy. And, in my opinion, you've outdone them all. Well done Sir!
Great idea with the shutters! The door is going to be amazing, thank you for all the awesome videos!!
Lovely to see you again and there’s always something new. The door is looking great, so unique, which is what you are all about. Take care, be safe. ❤️ Dorset, UK
Can’t imagine the incredible feeling of satisfaction from living in a log cabin you literally built with your own two hands. Can’t even fathom how incredible that must be. Has to be 100x more cozy and satisfying than hiring a builder
I came across your channel just this year and I have loved it since the very first video. With my mom, we sat on the couch every day to follow the development of your house, we even watched up to 7 Videos in a raw!! We felt in our hearts your loss, but we know he's watching your back in every movement, in every cut, in every decision you make. Thanks for your Videos, they take me to a place where I have peace in the middle of those trees, in that beautiful landscape with natural sounds.
Your videos are nothing short of inspirational. It’s been amazing following this journey of yours since the beginning. Thank you for bringing us along.
Watching the build of your home has been cathartic. You’ve taught engineering, Master carpentry, patience and the importance of family. Thank you for sharing this chapter of your life. The door is beautiful. 🙌🏼🤍🙏🏼
This channel and you continue to amaze. We all have been watching you (sometimes with tears in our eyes) as the inspiring story of this house unfolds. But it is about so much more than a cabin. It is about a man who has dedicated himself to helping his community in his work, supported his wife in her personal trials, demonstrated patience and skill in construction, dedicated his life to his family and its legacy, as he has entertained us with eloquent videography. For me the most touching was the way you partnered with your admired and loved father and the heart wrenching way you said goodbye to him. The most amazing thing is that you did it all with a minimum of words. Unlike many cabin builders and off griders on You Tube, you have NOT retreated from the world, you have embraced it. You are demonstrating what a difference a well rounded thoughtful man can make in a balanced life model.

I woke to see you had a new upload and quickly made breakfast and coffee. Your videos are to be savored. Unlike many other videos your posts are as artful as the craftsmanship you show in the making of things. I have been watching you since the beginning and the whole process has been like reading a great novel. The new door is stunning. I chuckled when you made the shutters...If it were me I would have just whipped up something quick. Your shutters took thought and added to the overall aesthetics of the build. As usual, at the end of your videos, I am left wanting more. Thank you for being you, and thank you to senior because though he is gone in body his essence is seen everywhere. Be blessed with great health for you and your family. Let us know how Mrs. Outsider is doing.
Howdy Brother- that’s one very unique door! Beautifully done. God’s blessings to you and your family
What a unique addition to the cabin. I still find myself looking for your Dad. He was such a part of this dream. ❤️
Just beautiful! That cabin is absolute perfection in all the handcrafted details. Well done.
This is the most beautiful thing built I've seen on YT so far!!! The inner frame floating inside the outer frame. Just gorgeous 😍A masterpiece
The door looks far better than I had imagined. Great work !
Your parants are together,and they look through your eyes and your childrens,I lost my farther in May 2020.ive followed you and your farther first episode,I'm your fan , love from Forster NSW Australia 🙂🇭🇲♥️🇨🇦
Hello my friend! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate and enjoy your videos. Your methodical work ethic also shows in your production, you never leave unanswered questions. Well done! My favorite channel! Be well, God bless!
Absolutely stunning autumn colours in nature. That door will make a beautiful picture when sunlight filters through amazing job.
Like many others, I have been traveling with this channel since the beginning, always happy to see the beautiful work they did together, the synchronicity, the beautiful views of the landscape that surrounds the cabin. I have enjoyed the realization of this beautiful door so bright. Thank you for continuing to invite nature, beauty and peace. A greeting from Spain.
I can picture your Dad looking down from heaven, nudging a friend, pointing toward you and proclaiming “That’s my boy!” You are an incredible craftsman and artist. Wishing you and your family a blessed week filled with gentle autumn weather and restful evenings. Peace brother. Ps: did you add an inside latch to the shutters to keep them closed?
My God, you are sooo good at making a puzzle AND putting it together!
Nice job on the shutters , they look GREAT , 👍👍👍
WOW!! Great job on the door, what a concept. You hit this one out of the park!
Nice door, I’m looking forward to the hearth episode. Of course I enjoy them all but been wondering about what you would do around the stove.
The door is coming out incredible! Love the shutters. The explanation of your projects along with your camera work is amazing. Love and God bless you and your family always
You're so brave to take on a project like that. You amaze me with your artistry and talent!
I wish I had a beautiful wooden house like this, we have nothing in Saudi Arabia but the desert 😅 God bless dad😭
Great show as always my brother in Christ! Look forward to all your video’s thanks for doing them for us all, God’s peace upon you and your family and praying for you all! 🙏🏻
Beautiful door! I've never seen anything like it. So cool 😎
You have the best cabin built I have ever seen on you tube….solid and bright…..Your dad has taught you well. Keep up the good work. He’s watching you…..You know! Stay safe!
man this is hands down some of the best content to watch on youtube right here. Hats off to you man you guys havent cut one single corner or rushed a single piece of the project. I love it!
Good Morning Sir, you are an OUTSTANDING WOOD ARTISITE 😇👍👌 Cheers 🍻🍻
Very nice. This has to be the most beautiful log cabin I have ever seen. Not too big nor too small. Your dad would’ve been very proud of you work. God bless!
Of all the cabin build shows I watch, this is the only one I watch more than once. Your that good! Thanks.
I just met you people for the first time yesterday. I was looking for a new video that I could follow and it was the one where you and your Dad started from the ground up building the cabin. I was able to watch part of it and finished the rest of it today. I knew nothing of any of this. I was amazed how you and your Father worked so well together. When I came back to the end of that long video of you and your Dad working on the cabin I saw other videos and then I saw a sad one. Yes, your Father's passing. My condolences. After I watched that I finished watching the one of you and your Father and thought. That is so great. That is so great you and your Father got to work together and now that it is done you both can (almost done) you had the privilege of doing it together. Then as I am setting here watching all of this I see the "C" word which again I had no idea. What a story your wife had to tell and what a story you both are living. God Bless you.
The door looks awesome what a great idea. The shutters did a great job as a temporary door and a novel idea. Be safe also your dad would have been proud of your ideas and vision.
An absolutely extraordinary door... a masterpiece.
The door looks beautiful with all the imperfections.
I'm mostly too old for KZread but I still find myself looking forward to this fellow's uploads 👍
Wonderfully creative idea for a unique door... can hardly wait to see how it turns out! Epoxy is indeed very finicky. Your process appears to be well thought out. KUDOS! Really admire your critical attention to details, and your patient efforts with everything I've had the pleasure of watching you build. Thanks for taking all the time and care to document and share your projects with all us viewers / admirers.
What an awesome looking door!!!??? Truly a piece of " functional art"!!!! Wow!! Tight work!👍!!!! 👍🦊🧙♂️🐺👍!!!!
That door is amazing 👏
Epoxy, adding that ""Today modern" to your traditional build. Mr. Outsider you continuously amaze me. The door is looking good. My nephew, back in the day used to call our front door, "the tomorrow door". the door faced east, he always woke early, as he came down the stairs and looked to the door, the window reflected red. I assume his mind turned that image into, "that's tomorrow". You sir may be creating the "Today door".
U truely a master at ur craft. I watch the cabin build from the beginning u and ur dad are awesome may he Rest In Peace brother and God bless u and ur cabin . I lost my dad years ago u never get over it but gets easier to live with as u age. Look forward to more videos 🙏❤️
Love the artistry and uniqueness of your door in progress. The shutters were also a beautiful addition to your very creative cabin. Happy Fall and Happy belated Thanksgiving to you Outsider.
I just discovered this and like a good book I can’t stop watching…waiting to see the inside with cupboards and furniture..I’m almost 90 years old so hope I get to see it all…you are amazing..sending love to your family
Seeing that door finished, just makes me think of his father, the detail of workmanship just glows, the way I see it it gives your mom & dad a way for viewing there awesome family that have left here for all of us to enjoy & learn. Job well done senior & Mrs. Senior. 👍🙏⛪️
The door is going to be beautiful and I love the shutters.
Wow I never realized how much work is involved with doing epoxy! This is going to be a fabulous door! You have some of the best and creative ideas. Love the videos!
Your videos are some of my most prized on my playlist. Please continue to make videos for us because we love you, your work, and for that which you stand for.

Glad to see you are well, and knowing your dad is watching over you thru the rest of your life. God bless you and your family

Marvellous door! Can’t wait until it is installed when we can see the real beauty of this one of a kind, unique door!
The only thing I can add to the many comments below is one more accolade. That door ! Such a work of art. Wonderful!
I Miss seeing your Dad. We know he's watching from above. God Bless
Awesome piece of work, Outsider!! 👍
That door is going to look superb, man I cant wait to see it installed!
My Husband and I are always so grateful when we see an Outsider Video pop up on YT, we won't watch until we are BOTH present, we say "Our Fella has dropped a video!" and the other says "Be right there". We are always so impressed with how much thought you have given things, and I was tickled when you changed the direction of the brace on the shutter, I had just said "That top one needs to go a different direction" HA, and then you changed it. we Love the Shutters for the door, and held our breaths when you were pouring, hoping those lovely floors didn't get attacked by poxy. I have said many times, you have such an amazing history there at the cabin, and tons of great video of your Dad and you together, what an amazing tribute. and add to it the knowledge he and your Mama are home and watching you carry on, and the manner in which you do (giving glory to God) will surely have a smile on their faces and in their hearts. Well done my friend, lil brother and thank you again for sharing this with all of us (PS can't close without thanking you for the video showing of the amazing colors all around you!)
Wow, the sounds of the woods! There is nothing like it. Beautiful scenery. Well done Sir.
Just beautiful- thank you 🙏
I love that door! You did a fantastic job!
This channel should have millions of subscribed. the talent is outstanding. Your family raised you right. All the best.
It's great to see you back at it. You've been taught well and learned well. That is very evident. Your Dad, though not physically present is with you every step of the way. I have no doubt he has one great big smile on his face. Keep well, keep safe and God Bless you and your family.
So, have just spent the last 4 days binge watching your cabin build with your dad. Awesome build, your goat like balancing skills on the roof were terrifying, your dad passing made me cry, and you unwavering faith and dedication humbling. Can't wait for the next installment! 😊😊

You should invite Barn Wood builders from West Virginia,it's one of my favourite TV shows we have over here in Australia.
I lean side to side on smoothing the epoxy. On the one side, having it plate glass clear would be quite stunning. On the other side though, leaving in a few waves would give it a clear ice look so much that looking through it would be almost like looking through winter to whatever season it is outside.
I love your videos!
NOTHING but calm , beauty and craftsmanship. It is a wonderful day when we wake up to Mr. Outsider. Can't wait to see Mrs. Outsider and Little Outsider with you again. Keep up the beautiful work and thank you for showing us some of the beauty and wildlife in the cabins area. God Bless.
Awesome job on that door and shutters! I’m sure the time and projects at the cabin can be bittersweet at times, but Sr Outsider would definitely approve. I hope you can feel his happiness for you as you spend time preparing a place for your family. Just as he taught you by example. Thanks for sharing, as always, and God bless you and all of your family!
You came up as a recommended video, likely because I watch Shawn James and his My Self Reliance channel. The idea of a door made of epoxy resin was intriguing so I watched and was not disappointed. What a neat idea! This was a really well done video and I appreciate your attention to safety with the respirator. I see folks not using PPE when they really should be and it drives me nuts. Long term consequences can absolutely happen from short term exposure. Anyway, I look forward to seeing the end result of the door and I'll be watching your channel from the start of this build to see how you got here. Thanks for sharing!
