Exactly. I've watched plenty of shed / cabin build videos and they all go over my head in details and terms I don't have any knowledge of. Almost like a foreign language. This just feels like a normal dude nailing a cabin together with sheer will and calm determination.

The fact that you're a good presenter with your videos, is a huge reason why they're so popular. You're detailed in your narration, and you keep us hooked wanting to hear more. As a 65 year old woman, I find it somewhat strange that I watch these videos. But, my mind and heart yearn for them and I think it's because I love your lifestyle. Being out in nature, doing your own thing, all the while documenting the entire process, which in turn generates income. What a life you and your family have. Smart people who love nature and love independence. Kudos to you.

You could build a cabin like this. Yes, you would need help for a few things, like raising the wall panels, but you can see that Dave struggles doing that by himself, too.

One thing I love about this channel is the commentary. So many bushcraft channels are silent for ASMR reasons. I suppose they have their purpose, but personally I like the explanation on what Dave's doing, why he's doing it, and just his personality. Dave's family channels and TA Outdoors give me that.

Dave, I suffered from abuse growing up, spent a lot of years in therapy with useless "therapists", and the video of the building of this cabin was very calming and relaxing because I knew that this is something that I could do, and have a safe space even though those who hurt me most passed recently.

So close to 1 million Dave, keep it up!!!

I'm building an off-grid cabin as well on property I bought in the mountains 2yrs ago, and I get many of the same questions as we've posted in social media our build progress. Where is the plan, did you buy them. No, the plan was in my head, that's it. I made some horrible pencil drawings of the outside and a floorplan inside, the wife nodded, and off we went. That's the plan....don't over-complicate it and don't buy plans unless you've never built anything and the cabin is your first go at any construction. Ours is in sandy soil on a steep hillside, so it's 3ft on the low side and 6+ feet off the ground on the high side, pressure treated post foundation as Dave did, but we used concrete as well. We use a decent sized generator for our corded tools, pancake air compressor that run nail guns, circular saw, hammers, hand saw, cats paw, framing square, and several levels. If you are young, just bang those nails with a hammer, I"m older and prefer to shoot 90% of them with a pneumatic framing nailer, it's a preference, not a requirement. We did use GRK construction screws in certain places out of convenience or when we wanted to pull something tight and keep it tight. They are NOT deck screws or drywall screws, but they are expensive so go easy on them...nails are cheap. Since it's a cabin, we don't have load bearing walls, it's one room of fun with a second story loft, all the weight is carried on the outside posts....make those good and you are fine. Don't be afraid, get off your butt and just do it.

Dave, I'm a Brooke fan that slowly meandered my way over to your channel. I love watching all your projects and appreciate not only how down to earth the both of you are, how much I've learned on each channel, but also your faith & how grateful you guys are. Always thanking God for your blessings. You guys feel like friends and it's because you're so relatable and real. One day when I grow up, I wanna be just like you guys - living my best life away from all the riff raff and BS. Much love and warm wishes from the batty PNW!

Basically a refresher course for me after watching you build it. Hard to believe it was 2 years ago.

Love your build videos. Can't wait for this and others!

Found your channel as I looked for people building cabins. The first of your videos I watched was your storage shed build. Absolutely amazing! I truly enjoyed your way of explaining things and your ability to build up a story, and the simple way you tied everything together. It reminded me of nostalgia and the way I heard stories in movies and books as a young kid in the 70s. I really appreciate you as I know others do as well. Growing up in central California I was taught to fish, hike,hint,camp,explore, build,pour concrete,build fires,canoe,shoot, bushcraft by my father John. Keep up the good work

Nails are softer than screws so they flex/bend with shifting foundations rather than shear like hardened screws will. Driving nails at opposite angles will give surprisingly good holding power. The correct fastener is determined by code but experience will tell you what is the right application. Remote construction brings out the McGyver in all of us, whether it is a bridge or an outhouse. Stay safe, cuz you are the doctor as well when building solo.

I always love when one of your videos pop up on my suggested videos after not seeing them in a few months. Then I can't stop watching them for days in a row. Thanks for great content!

Love all of the cabins your family has built. Each one has personality and character of it's own. I'm thinking there are so many people right here in America that would love to own any one of them, things have just gone crazy housing wise. Mick's cabin is greag as well, he learned a lot in the building that he will remember the next build. Love all of your family's videos, gets me away from the rat race for just awhile. Stay safe and GOD bless you and your family

This follow up video on your cabin build is brilliant. I have watched this video many times now, I liked it the first time, and I never tire of watching it again. I look forward to watching your future updates on it. One insulation product I would recommend is aluminium coated bubble foil. Go watch a channel called "Boss of the swamp" and see the great success he has had using it under his floors. Like you he had a background in construction in his younger days, which has stood him in good stead for the rest of his life, building and refurbing cabins. He along with all the Whipple clan's video content are my favourite channels to follow. Keep up the great work. David in the UK.

I'm not shocked at all that this video is as popular as it is. I alone have watched that video series a dozen times. It's not even because I'm a novice at basic construction, I just really like your voice and watching cabin building videos is calming.

Love the knotty pine on the walls, but not the ceiling. A painted ceiling surface would look really nice and wouldn't ruin the rustic character.

The director's cut with commentary, I love it! It doesn't seem like two years already, where does the time go? Your videos are great. Happy trails, Dave. 😊 🏕️

Old carpenter insulating tip. Coat your arms face neck and any other place that is exposed to fibers with baby powder before you start stuffing insulation. The powder keeps the fibers from sticking into your skin. Once you're done, take a cold shower first to wash off fibers. A hot shower opens pours and let's fibers stick in them instead of rinsing down the drain. The baby powder trick has always worked wonders for me and I've stuffed thousands of bats over the years

Us builders know you did it right. It was so detailed that anyone that has building sense could build this. Way back when the steel was better quality they called the ribs nailers.

I am about your age (48) and I have helped build several homes with nothing but hammer and nail. Screws are ok for tension load but not side load, they are pretty brittle.

My favorite part was cooking the hash!😋. Nice cabin Dave!

On the danish oil - I’m a big fan of spar urethane, and mixing with mineral spirits to thin it out (it’s pretty thin compared to regular poly) goes on well and dries quick when thin!

Pretty soon Dave you're gonna need a staff to handle all of these comments. I don't know how you keep up. You spread a tremendous amount positive energy in the world. It is in desperate need of it. Thanks for all of your effort.

Hey, Dave, I am with you on the using screws to fasten stuff, where did this start? Any time I have used screws outside, I later regretted it. Nails are stronger, and easy to replace. The environ idiots, don't even give them any notice, keep on building! You do an excellent job, and your videos are great! Thank you.

Thanks Dave. We just got water delivery to our off grid property. Waiting on a well to be dug. You have inspired us from our move from the city and out into the country. Thanks so much for all that you and Brooke and Mick do to inspire others. All the way in the Caribbean.

Thanks again for a great video dave! You were the one who influenced me the most when I came to building my own cabin...a 10 x 10 clorestory roof.

Always great to watch you're videos. I remember this cabin build a few years back. Just simple straight forward info. Thanks for the work Dave.

So interesting thing about filling in the air gap on chimney's. Living in Delta Junction many people heat with wood. When building our house my husband put in rock wool in the air gap as did his brother because thats the way their dad did it. 12 years ago, my brother-in-law had a fire in their roof. When everything was looked at the chimney through the roof hadn't failed. It turned out that the rock wool had conducted enough heat to the wood box that it caught the roof on fire. Thankfully they caught it quickly and the fire department got there fast as they didnt loose their entire house, just part of the roof and some water damage. After that my husband opened our chimney area up and took all the rock wool out and then put an 8 inch ducting up through the roof so it wasnt just a square wood box through the ceiling. Definitely helped with our peace of mind.

20:33 "If you don't have safety equipment when running a saw, you're going to be a lot more cautious". I agree 100%. Your primary bit of safety equipment is between your ears, and if you don't bring that to the job, nothing is going to save you from yourself.

Thanks for sharing your perspective and the 50 million great tips. It’s not like you haven’t built a cabin before, so let all the others just do what they want and don’t worry about negative comments and questions.
