I sometimes wonder if it's weird to kind of fall in love with a person you've never met and to watch them build a farm or a house or a cabin and spend hours with them watching them do stuff and casually talk to you. But then they say things like "You gotta draw the line. I have a hard time drawing that line though." and you know you're just where you're supposed to be. Just saying. Love this channel. Dankeschön.

me too!! but just cutting those brambles at the ground won't kill them. they actually grow right back, and thicker. i found the best to apply appropriate herbicide as a basal bark application. it may take awhile, but the roots die and they never grow back. i too, was a tree hugger, but got educated and now manage my property where it now aesthetically pleasing

Keep up the hard work! And, I give you major props for wearing the safety gear up on the roof! And safety glasses….hot damn, you should be a shop teacher!

Progess is amazing. I would place some conduit under the straping before adding roofing so uf you need a wind mill or solar, allyou have to do is remove a small cap under the ridge cap and run wires down into the cabin.

I have to say, living here is Australia is so different to the seasons you experience in the northern hemisphere. Your footage of the changing seasons from Summer to Autumn, Winter to Spring is incredible. I love watching your vids and you inspired me to build my own off grid cabin.

This doesn’t really pertain to this video, but you talking about big windows made me think of this. My cabin has huge windows and bird strikes can be a problem at times. Well, I hung out a big flag between the windows just because I like the flag, and it turns out I don’t get bird strikes anymore. The birds don’t seem to like the movement of the flag. Anyway, nothing to do with this video but thought I’d post in case you’re getting bird strikes.

Please build some simple s2x4 saw benches and rent scaffolding for siding and gable installations. Not a criticism just an observation from an old pro. It will save you a lot of time and you will be able to work safer.

I’m not much of a planner. I try to design based on simple measurements and readily available building supplies and go from there typically. Also permits only allow for certain sizes…

hey Graham, I am about start working on the roof of my cabin build and was going to do horizontal perlins to attach the metal roofing to. What was your reasoning behind adding the small vertical blocks under the perlins? I realize its probably to lift the perlins. I have been reading up on condensation with metal roofs and I think it may have something to do with that

Yes, it was primarily condensation and more airflow to create heat mediation in the summer. It’s definitely more work and costs a little bit more, but I think it’ll be worth it.

@@WoodnessGoodness Gotcha, ok yeah I was just going to do the horizontal with no blocks but was thinking if the roof were to condensate and drip down those purlins would stop it from draining.

Anyway, keep it up, I know that feeling all too well of everything seems to just take WAY longer than you think. I've heard you mention that a couple times.
