Traplines, your log home will be one of the nicest and most beautiful on KZread. You are doing a fantastic job on the build. That was a great aerial view of the build site. Happy St. Patrick’s Day. Stay safe my Friend.

Thank you Ted! I bought a fancy drone recently and I am hoping to use it to add to and improve my videos, glad you liked that!

The first floor bathroom is the one you’ll hit when you come in dirty. Dump your clothes in the washer and hit the walk-in shower (instead of tub) so you don’t track dirt through the house. Love your design.

I'm so stoked for you man. Love watching you build your life up for the past few years.

Thanks my friend I have been loving the process

Radiant floor heating would be a good way to heat your house and would be a good compliment to using a fireplace. For your master bathroom, I would do a good size walk in shower. There is no need to have 3 bathtubs.

If he gets married one day, his wife will appreciate an upstairs tub. 🫧😁/ But I do agree that he should have at least one walk-in shower on a lower level. For when his older relatives visit & mobility/safety might be an issue. Always good to plan ahead.

Recommend free standing wood stoves versus fireplaces in the wall ....so much more heat proficient as compared to fireplaces where so much heat goes up the chimney , unless perhaps have inserts that capture the heat better

Insurance is ridculous here with wood stoves were as zero clearance fireplaces don't bother as much it seems

He hasn't called us boys and girls in a long while, I kind of miss that.

Miss it too and doesn’t say Deadly as much but I love that it has evolved to one of his tshirts, haha. But we’re us now, as in, “We’re gonna do….” I know personally I’m exhausted with all the armchair help just watching him, lol. Trying to flip that 42ft’er, wow. Aww, is our young lad growing up on us?

Thanks for the walk through. Great design of the house it will be perfect for you. Looking forward to the next step of the build.

Looks awesome. Looks like plenty of room in your new place. That’s good. Never know what the future holds. Good luck with the build friend👍👍

thank you my friend

Watching this build puts many other 'log homes' to shame. I often watch youtuber's with their builds and think 'so what, I could do better than that'. But you are achieving something special, I've been impressed every step of the way. Your enthusiasm is inspiring. And self taught as well!!?? Very impressive. Keep it up buddy

Great .. Wow... a very beautiful home your making there. HAPPY St .Patrick's Day... ☘️🍻☘️

Thanks for inviting us along!😊🏠🇨🇦👍👍👍👍✌️

Family in the future! Right deadlines home! 😎👍

With out a doubt, the most beautiful home I've ever seen. I can't wait to see the day you move in!

You are an incredible young man! been with you for over 3 years now (I just missed your first couple of videos trapping) I'd agree with some other posted comments, no need for 3 tubs. do a walk in shower! As we age it seems like getting in and out of the tub gets tougher. Maybe even splurge with a rainfall head, a second shower head, a wand, some steam. You wouldn't ever regret it I promise. Keep up the amazing work 💯

Thank you Bryan. Yes I have thought lots about walk in showers, they wont necessarily all be tubs even though they are in the model.

Been waiting to see the grand plan and it certainly did not disappoint !! Gorgeous ! Guessing you’ll have a separate workshop since the basement will be a finished one. 👌👍🏼

I put radiant heat in my basement and the upper floor it’s expensive but it’s the only way to go there’s nothing like waking up in the morning and stepping on a nice warm floor believe me cheers

Deadly 🤘👍

Closed loop Propylene Glycol radiant floor heat would be the perfect solution.

Looks great…you’re on your way…stay safe..

Hope to see more progress on the log home soon 😊

It's beautiful. You're doing an amazing job making your dream house come true!

The office can utilize the closet for supples etc. There are always things you don’t want sitting out in the room, so the closet can be used for this. Install some shelves for now. You could change your mind down the road to perhaps use it for a bedroom.

Love it!! A few things that you may consider that I found practical in my home: Is to have a nice wide WALK-IN shower, no tub. AMAZING! For your master closet, may consider one 4 foot wide door and use barn doors. You'll thank me! ☺️ And just a thought, with your active life. I would suggest not even having that small room for your office. Make it a wide open mudroom area for your gear and other helpful items. Make that space upstairs over looking the beautiful view and over looking your down stairs your office space. But I'm guessing you may find yourself doing most your work at the dining room table... Just a few suggestions you know you best. THANK YOU for your channel! Absolutely love your story! ❤

I have a neat idea. The huge front truss window view?.....what if you built 'runway' style loft that goes all the way across the front of those windows and put two overstuffed wide leather chairs up there with a single table between them. Maybe even off to one end have a small bourbon/whiskey display with various rocks tumbler glassware. Id totally go up there and savor a sip and that GOD GIVEN VIEW!! Call it "heavens hearth" 😇🥰 (if ya really wanna get fancy, rather than a second set of stairs, have an open hallway go all the way across the home from front end to back loft. The railing could be designed with custom black coated steel with unique silhouette carvings. Have that hallway floor trimmed with lighting so when you're on the main floor and looking up, you see the carvings!) I mean, if you're gonna dream, ...do it right! 😂 Personally, ive always dreamed as if money was no object, then proceeded within budget, and 9 times out of ten i end up with a very happy 'inbetweener' i can live with! Also, having a half wall floor-pan shower stall wash station in a mudroom or back porch is not only perfect for pet bathing, but knocking off wet mud from coveralls and boots. With hanger hooks on the wall above for hanging things to drip dry, or hooking a leash while washing a dog. Having those plumbing ideas from the get go is smart! We keep and old washer and dryer set in our garage just for the "country nasties" that come with the outdoors lifestyle!

I wonder how he plans on lifting the cabin up on to the cement basement walls?

It looks incredible. The amount of planning, time, and effort you've put into is truly amazing

Thanks for showing us! Shocked me when I realized there was no patio on the master bedroom. Go with the 2 fireplaces. Even in a home with a gas furnace, people congregate by the fire. Very excited to see this to completion!

He might be able to build a balcony-deck outside the master, if the crow-foot trusses can support one.

Can’t wait to see the finished product, my favorite channel of this sort. If I may add a piece of advice or my thoughts, I would be removing one or two bathtubs and going with showers, nothing better then a big walk in shower. I’m sure as a man you don’t bath much but every house should have one tub. Also I’d make the bathroom an en-suite off the master. Either way looks awsome. Good for you. As a dad with a teenager becoming his own man. It’s awsome to see someone your age realizing his dream and not being afraid to work his butt of to achieve it. Do it well your young. Cheers.

Thank you Matt yes that is good advice about showers, I have thought about it a fair bit too. Its very likely that one or more of the tubs will end up being showers

Going to be a beauty my boy. 👍👊🇺🇲🇨🇦

For the loft suggestion: low bookshelves against the sloped side of roof 9 like a kneewall. Thus making that loft area a reading nook with either a couple of arm chairs and ottomans or maybe a love seat.

hey I like that thank you

Peace and love young man. Can't wait til I see you on the front porch laid back enjoying a cup of coffee. :)

Go on boy😄 you are doing good, respect man and I will follow you💪 Maybe, on the vide upstairs, its an idea to make a little museum from the tools you used with building this log house? The chainsaw on a standard for example? Just an idea 😄💪 Why dont you lengten the basement and make your own great workingspace underground with doors to the outside? Question: how did you take care of the sanitair like the sewage system, power plan, water drainage, water supply and, I am sorry because I am in the military for over 30 years, whats your back up plan (plan B when shit goes wrong)? There are also wood stoves with a boiler, connected to the shower, kitchen etc who heat up your water for free, just an idea my friend. I want you to do good and well and I enjoy you so much, so keep following your heart my friend, thats the only way to do it and to be happy. I get happy from you man. I sent you an email on your website, I hope you will answer it. Take care my friend😄🙏

Most people don't realize the power of Sketchup. This fun tool makes it possible for a regular Joe to make dreams a reality. It can flex from a 5 minute project to a freaking space ship (or a deadly log home). I love watching someone living the dream in the great outdoors.

Hey from Nova Scotia… Man don’t know if you know how talented you are! It’s incredible how you are able to sculpture your logs to such precise tolerances. I love watching your videos and wish they would never end.

For your washer and dryer you could always use a stackable set that would give you the extra room

Absolutely “DEADLY”! Thanks for the tour - from Hells Canyon, Frank.

Great design! You have to pay attention to which way you face this home. I'm sure this is something you have already thought about. But the wall with the huge windows should be facing the South. That helps a lot with heating! Using the sun to pull solar warmth through all that glass .

Going to be a great looking home and looking forward to watching you continue this beautiful log home. Keep up the great work and looking forward to your next video....jeff

MAGNIFICENT!! I sub to about 200 channels. Watch no TV. This house is not only beautiful but sensible. I know it will bring you much happiness. Keep on keeping on!!

great, the amount of work you're putting in is just outstanding. can't wait to see the project in finished form.

Looks nice! In my basement I have a small walk in pentry with fridge, oven/stove and sink - just in case... It's always nice to have backup. Keep up your good work.

Pretty nice Kyle, but you sure have a lot of work ahead of you.

One thing that might help with the bathroom doors (or really any of the doors off the central hallway) you could use pocket doors that slide into the wall. That way you avoid doors blocking cabinets or opening into the hallway. I use them all the time in designing interior spaces. Anywho, just my two cents. Nice job with the design - I can't wait to see it all finished!

Beautiful home there, guy. You better get to cutting firewood to keep that beast of a fireplace happy !!!😊 I can't wait to see the finished home !!!¡

Years ago I had a loft area like that and I put a nice L shaped desk system in it and used it as an office. With that view it could be inspirational for you. Also, for your master bedroom bathroom I would definitely not do a tub/shower. Do a separate glass shower and then a corner tub or something. The bathroom in the basement I would do as just a nice shower. You want to soak in a tub, you have other ones in the house to utilize.

Really like your plans, it looks Great. Yeah a Mud Room in the back is something you'll be Glad you put in. I owned a home that had one and I used it pretty much ever day. Could come in, Strip off my dirty clothes and go right to the shower, without getting the house dirty. Good luck with the build, enjoy watching.

Open layout is definitely the right way to go! Spent a lot or years in the building trades and have seen a lot of different layouts and it always seems to me that separating kitchen, living room & dinning with full height walls makes it cramped and uncomfortable. This house is going to be amazing dude thanks for the tour.

For your upstairs bedroom, you may want to consider using a sliding door for your bathroom.

Very nice design, you were fortunate to have someone so talented to work with you and smart enough to know when you need some professional guidance.-once again I am so impressed with your maturity and sensibility.

Thank you for inviting us in!

You deserve every square inch of your home and I can’t wait to see your completed dream be a reality. What an amazing place it will be that you would have built out of your own skill and hard work. Unfortunately I live on this tin pot island called the Uk and it’s become pretty much impossible to build something of your own without vast amounts of money which is a total shame. So instead I get to watch you and enjoy you building your dream👍👍

At my age, I just cant help think of all those stairs and the issues that will surely arrive, as a person gets older. I would hope for a sloped lot and incorporate a ground level entrance, either at the front or rear.

Yes yes great design.

Awesome. Can't wait to see the end

Hey Kyle, for the loft area... I'm thinking a gaming area of some kind. Probably too small for a pool table, unfortunately. That would be ideal. But, there's certainly room for a foosball table, hockey table, air-hockey table, etc. If you don't want to clutter the area that much, a dart board would be a great option. For me personally, I'd put a full-blown racing sim cockpit there :)

Beautiful plans and enjoyed the tour. Thanks from Ontario

Your log home is absolutely gorgeous, you truly mastered the craft of log home building. I can't wait to see the finished product. Cheers from Prince Edward Island 🇨🇦

AWESOME design. It won't be but a minute and you will be living in your dream.

A beautiful design and some great views within the home. The windows are magnificent. Thanks so much for keeping us up to date. Wishing you a warm and productive Spring!☀

That's an awesome home layout, just beautiful. I think the loft area would be a great place for your library and comfortable reading room.

I love the open 1st floor. That is an absolutely beautiful house !! 👍

Comment section is really on point. HEAT. Enclosed mudroom with Shower. Make that loft a little bigger and there's your office. PORCH swing would be nice. I can't wait to see what you decide. GREAT JOB!!!!

It’s still looking fantastic kudos to you wish I could be there helping you ! 👍

Exceptional design! Very well thought out. I love watching you build this! Deadly 💚

Greetings from Ontario I have watched your channel for several years. Thank you for sharing your dream home. It is exceptional and so well planned out . The nook at the top of the stairs I can see two very comfortable chairs, a table in between them and a reading lamp Maybe a small bookshelf along the one side to hold favorite books to read, Perfect place to relax ,especially if it is snowing and the view from there is everyones dream. I have no doubt that this will become a reality for you. All the best and take care . Thank you for all the great videos.

It’s going to be a really nice log home! Going to be great laying in a chair by that big fireplace with snow on the ground. You’ve worked hard and you deserve it. Glad we get to tag along on the build. Thanks buddy!

Hello, I've been watching your videos since the beginning and I think it's great what you do. I'm very excited to see what your log cabin looks like when it's finished. Please make a video about the tools you use to work on the log house and for your pickup. I wish you much success, greetings from Germany. 👍🇩🇪😉

I really think you're doing a hell of a job I think you do excellent work and I have been watching for over a year or more and I love Canadian accent. I have been wanting to move to Maine on the Canadian border but my health went to hell and I'm 77 years old so I guess I'll have to stay here and drive my till I can't anymore. I'm looking forward to your next videos keep up the good work ALLYN T

Can't wait so excited!!❤

Looks awesome, that's actually a pretty big house! Gonna be wicked to see this digitally, then watch you bring it to reality. DEADLY.

Great to see what the future holds for your log cabin, love the kitchen, dining, lounge open concept where friends and family can all be together, great for Thanksgiving and Christmas get togethers.

You could play hockey in the basement! Or you could get a pool table...

Right On, Kyle!

Gonna be such a wonderful place to raise a big happy family. Godspeed friend.

Absolutely amazing

Excited to see your build journey

Nice big house plan. Eager to watch it all come together, especially digging out the basement part. Spring is almost here and I hope you enjoy the rest of the winter and get lots of R&R, you have quite a summer ahead of you!

Looking good,,cant wait to watch

Awesome home! Can’t wait to see it completed!👍👍

This is a nice plan for sure, the kitchen is really good, but having all the toilets in the bathrooms is a bit of a pain, especially if you have a house full of people. A separate toilet with a sink is always handy.

That will be one big beauty when it's all done. Awesome ♥

Love the open concept

I was wondering what your foundation would look like. What a fun project, I would look into a Masonry heater for the basement instead of a entertainment area since that's such a massive home to heat.

It’s good to see your vision for the cabin

Hell yeah, you're the man! Excited to see you build this over the next few years!

All I can say is “Wow”! 😎👍

Thanks for the tour. It looks like a fantastic set up.

Whoa what an absolute vision you have this home will be handsome and stunning. Thanks for keeping us in the loop during your process.

Wow !! I have been watching you from the first tree ! I can't wait to see it finished!!!

Your home will be absolutely stunning! Great job and I can hardly wait to see it unfold!

Oh my gosh, thanks for the tour and I just know it’s going to be wayyyy nicer inside than the blueprints. Those main beams, can’t wait! Agreed, make use of the fireplace downstairs because it’s already there anyways and if that’s going to be YTube land, that’ll be your entertainment room and ya can’t have one of ‘em without a fireplace for ambience. Plus, your heat will rise. And there can only be one conclusion. With all those rooms, it’s time for Mrs. Traplines and start filling ‘em with a ball team, lol. Or hired staff? Willing to relocate, don’t need a passport from NB and will work for; room and board, your deadly breakfasts and bush coffee. 👋🤣🤣❤️
