I see a good many negative comments. We all tend to learn from our mistakes so don't loose heart and keep on posting. Your uploads are still more interesting than anything on the boob tube.

A wonderfully, refreshingly honest DIY cabin build video. Thank you very much. Just the fact that you outlined some mistakes you made, gives me encouragement to tackle larger projects if I wish; we all make mistakes and it's how we learn and if we are too afraid of doing the wrong thing, we won't get anything new done/built.

I'm so glad you shared all of this with us . Your home is beautiful so far and I can't wait to see it finished.

I priced out my off grid cabin I am going to build this year and it will come in about $15,000 complete. (totally different style w/solar) I don't think most people realize building is mostly labor costs and if you can bargain buy materials you can save a fortune.

Dope! I wanted to make mine completely off-grid but it's not too far from my workshop which has power PLUS it's in the woods and getting solar there would be a pain. Definitely thinking I will do some sort of off-grid water system...

randy fredricksen When building off grid, remember to place construction road adjacent..... My build site is about seven miles from the nearest road (but that road system is on an island my property is not on). I have to buy my building materials in a city, load it into my boat (18 foot open skiff), drive boat to my dock (38 mile trip-but at least I see whales & orcas about every other trip), then carry materials 300 meters over rough terrain to building site.... then take a nap, cause too tired to build at that point. Don’t be like me, build road adjacent.... I almost bought land in Missouri.... I love my Alaska land, but had I bought in Missouri I would already be living in my cabin and it would be paid off.....

This is, hands down, the best intro segment I have ever seen on KZread. Totally inspiring. Excitedly subscribing!

Graeme, you do such great work. You just need to step back & admire all you’ve gotten done & on your own! We both love this cabin. It’s just too far from where we live for us to get to enjoy it! Lol. You are an inspiration to anyone tuning into your channel. Take care, be safe, & May God bless!

$ 8000.00 for a peace of mind and relaxation...I love it and the pharma industry hates it ! All the best man !

I'm guessing you only have power to the cabin given the mini split or do you have other services? Did you just run a line from the main house/box to the cabin and if so how much did that cost?

Nice seeing you on a Thursday! See how long we have been watching you...6 months!...no wonder I feel like we are friends (sort of). The beginning was really hard work...remember when you almost damaged your 'junk'?! That was so funny! And "say Hi to Tom". I always liked when you got some help...the roof and the wind was tricky. Memories! Thanks for the smiles today!

We LOVE your channel!!!! We have less than 7 months to complete the tear down of the old 1840’s home place along with its companion barn, get them packed up and shipped out to Montana to begin the up-cycled♻️, off grid cabin build! We can’t thank you enough for all of the awesome ideas and fantastic content here on your Instagram page- we can’t wait to incorporate some of these ideas into our upcoming build! There is nothing more magical than building a new to us home to live in that was once lived in and loved by someone else so long ago! If those walls could talk! Thanks again for being such an amazing inspiration- April and Jeff

Nice first build. Having someone industrious like yourself show us the mistakes to avoid is extremely helpful.

Absolutely beautiful cabin! Thank you for taking the time to produce this wonderful video!

Got the urge to come back and rewatch this video. Loved the whole series.

Found your channel recently, and I'm already up to date. Been watching a few channels, and like the fact you're tackling this mainly by yourself..good on ya! A lot of the videos I've watched elsewhere don't really give a cost breakdown, and although in U.S currency, I appreciate it. My only thing is, and it's minor, but you didn't include how much you saved on being gifted those awesome windows from your friend...the "Master of Caulk!!!"...it would truly give people a true estimate if they wanted to build something similar. I totally get that you really wanted to use your reclaimed windows from the start, and I felt for you when you had to re-frame everything...I really did...but how much are these NEW (to you) windows worth...even if the company that gave them opted to sell them instead...wouldn't be brand new prices, but in reality they would still be worth something. I wish we all had friends that worked in different fields like this and they were as generous. It looks awesome!!!, and it's truly something you can be proud of...mistakes (corrected, or being corrected) and all!!!

I really appreciate that you did a price breakdown!.. so many guys build these small/tiny cabins & don't give a guy any idea what it costs!.. I got a piece of land & want an off-grid cabin.. I plan on dying there some day.. my own paradise & last huge project in life as a 50yr old dude.. ya feel me? So, with $15,000 grand left in my budget & doin it myself, I'm gonna have plenty of cash if I'm careful.. even with the extras & I'm gonna outfit it with solar power & water wheel house project comes later as I have a creek running nearby.. even if I gotta spend more down the road, I got enough to get started & I know I'm gonna learn a lot.. I did already just watching you.. btw, I subscribed.. thanks kid.. & lastly, ya did a wonderful job.. you should be very proud of yourself!!

This is what I've been waiting for! Thank you for making this video!

New to your channel, just subscribed. I too just did a price breakdown of the small house I'm building in the woods also. I've spent just a little less than you have on a 20x24. I've been fortunate to have gotten some reclaimed lumber I used on the foundation framing. On the other side, I've spent more on travel as I'm a few thousand miles away from my build. You have a nice looking cabin, I'm loving the windows!

Home Depot carries the Grade 4 Cedar Shingles, I used them to clad a wall on my workshop. I gotta get more and finish the rest of the walls as well.

thank you very much for this coolest video on your experience! I am planning to build a similar size cabin in northern thailand, being wet and humid here, I obviously have a different approach BUT your work ethic and honesty to admit your mistakes are huge help and guiding me towards the right thinking and planning ! Thanks !! be well and stay healthy :))

o and the Pride of doing it yourself ...... Priceless!

Nice breakdown and great work! If you hired someone to construct that I would expect it to be around $35,000 - $50,000. Just time, learning, elbow grease and you got yourself a cabin!

You can never have too many roofing screws! You may want to start another project down the road ,,and given the experience you have l learned priceless!

Great job !...I am in the process of building a "Guest house" at our cottage and has the same "look" and "style" as your project. 3 weeks in and am ready to put the door, windows and steel sheeting which are all on order....waiting. The thing I wanted to do on my project was to use hand tools only, no air guns , miter saws, etc,etc...and do it all by myself. Lost 12 lbs to date, but fun so far. My budget is reaching 5,900.00 including the rest of the materials on order. The interior, which will be done next spring, will be at extra costs. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for sharing. I have been curious about cost. Love the videos. I hope to build a small cabin on my property someday and your videos have been very insightful. I'm excited about starting the inside.

I noticed how much awesome cheap wood was available recently and then it mostly disappeared. Economic warfare and the virus is a massively exaggerated scam. Run by terrorist criminals, monopolizes, thieves and rights violators. Turn off the fake news and politics and clean house as peacefully and wisely as you can people. Don't believe a word these bribed and blackmailed liars on the news and politics etc. Right down to your willingly involved local rulers, or lied to local rulers.

I just watched all your videos, thinking I could build my own shed room lol ... it's a lot of work, but I could tell you enjoyed building it with your own hands, congratulations!

Aside from the host, this video was great to see. I loved the visual breakdown of cost.

Money savings is a bonus but the learning of the process is priceless! Thanks for sharing 🤙🏻

@Ball Gazer Exotics OMG, I had no idea there was such a variance! Really good to know that. I was wanting a cost of permits too, but given that kind of variance better to leave it out. We are going to build in a really rural area of the south east US mountains, so should be on the lower end but still...I had no idea.

Nice honest video. I am currently in the process of building a geodesic dome shed. Like you, I am learning a lot as I make it up as I go along. I had figured at first it would cost me maybe a grand all in at the max, but I am now into it for more like 3 grand. That was my big learning right there. The dome itself is right in there at about a grand, but I had to build a deck to set it on, and I needed some tools, each of those two things run about a grand each so far.

Ah man. I love this. As a DIY enthusiast myself - this is amazing.

Cool vid, congrats on the build.. just some things to consider if you build any more, take this with a grain of salt. make sure to glue down your subfloor sheathing with construction adhesive to prevent squeaks. I cant see if your beams are pressure treated or not so no comment there. Your beams are resting directly onto the concrete in the weather, where your beams rest will rot out regardless if theyre pressure treated or not, perhaps next time have brackets with weep hole and some foam gasket. I also dont really see any supports (cripple studs) supporting your headers or (lintels), or even your sills, the weight of the roof will cause deflection and potentially press onto your glass and crack it over time. Your roof system by far needs the most work, your first sheathing/underlayment layer is useless, and if for some reason your roofing leaks, the water has no where to go because well you sheathed over it another time thereby sealing it off having no where to run to, mixed with some heat/condensation, it will just rot out. and if any water were to get out, it would just leak right into your fascia and wick back up. You should have strapped out your roof, you should never put metal directly onto wood like that, it needs airflow. Also the flashing is installed completely incorrect on the gable ends. I dont see a single vent, but i dont see soffit either, perhaps i dont know whats going on but youre going to need some sort of way to dry out your building, specifically your roof because all warm moisture will rise and become trapped in your ceiling (i guess if you decide to insulate/drywall). Perhaps a wood stove to pull moisture out, idk.. All in all I think the architecture is really cool, The windows are sweet and i love the shed style, and cedar shakes are the best. but your roof is too complex and wasnt thought out properly. Sorry to sound like a jerk but Ive seen it before and just wanted to point out some POTENTIAL issues you may face down the road.

I'm far from an expert. And I'm sure I'll be corrected if this turns out to be bs. But I've heard that if your floor squeaks get bad you can climb under the cabin and just glue and tap some shims between the joists and the subfloor in the problem areas.

hey, nice job man! I'm really inspired. I just have buy a parcel of land and forest, and i'm thinking about which type of construction is the best and the cheaper, cause i have really small budget. My idea is a tiny house but not on wheels, so a small cabin like yours, which size is approximately your cabin? and do you think these materials are ok for a humid climate (asturias, north of spain, a lot of rain)? i hope you will answer me, and thank you for this awesome video for a nice small home on a small budget! have a nice day (sorry for my english i'm french).

I salute your will and courage to learn. And to make the dream a reality! Congrats to you!👍👍

Nice job on the cabin, best of luck with it. Years ago, (many, many years ago)I worked with guy who made camp cabins, he put an under course when using cedar single siding.

that wood be perfect for an art studio!!! i need a place with no internet connection so i can focus!!!!

We (me and my husband) are building a similar one in Poland on our allotment. It costs us similarly and we are also at a similar stage. Our exterior finish is almost ready, there is a finish near windows and window ledges to do. We buried the electric cable last Saturday and soon we will start making electrical and plumbing installations - we have already bought part of the cables and water pipes. Our expenses till today: Foundation - $350 Framing wood and screws - $1800 Floor, Sarking and Sheathing boards - $1250 Roof Structure - $1200 Metal Roof second quality- $450 Larch Siding class "B", Furring Strips, stainless screws. - $1800 Second hand windows, external blinds, window ledge and doors- $700 Tools (sow, impact driver, ladders ect.)- 550$ Others (screws, part od insulation, some electric wires and pipes) $1250 TOTAL COST - $7900 Probably the interior wall finish will take another $2000 - 3000 , because we live in climate zone where we need to give at least 6 inches of insulation wool for the walls and 10 inches for the roof, to have warm in the winter and not so hot during summer. We also believe that if we hired someone we would not learn anything and in addition we would not be able to fix anything in the future on our own. It took us 12 months to build this stage, but we only work on Saturdays and afternoons after work, and for some of it it was winter. I will follow your future wideo, we wish you good luck :)

What a great looking build. Awesome video.

I would love to see a total cost breakdown once the project is finished, with an estimate of the cost for the stuff you didn't have to pay for (like the windows).

Come now, the skills required for the build would need YEARS of experience. Years. I have done my fair share of construction work, so it is totally transparent. Others looking at this slick impressive series, should take note. 6 months!...again, that would need full time dedication as well as the aforementioned skills. Reality bites 😉

Hands down best video I’ve seen so far

Hey, nice office building! I noticed at the end you mentioned a fireplace. I know there are various stores like Lowes or Sears that carry fireplace heaters that look realistic and are stand alone. Also there is a KZreadr named Jared Crocker who has a "Shed to House Conversion, Full Tour" video where he shows his nice home inside and out. I believe for his fireplace in the living room it was like $350 or $450 on Amazon and it was built-in but looked really cool if you wanted to go that route. Anyways good luck with your space and future projects.
