Finally Balcony and Front Porch / Off Grid CABIN Building (S4 Ep16)

This is a big moment for our log cabin, adding the balcony and front porch will change the look of the house and also I can finally eliminate the stairs directly in front of the entrance.
Thank you for watching!

    I am following you almost from the beginning. I don't know if I have wrote something before to you, but today, watching your daughter, son and pregnant wife I realized that you almost quietly had made your family, your work, your art and love part of our life. I talk of you with my friends like the guy from Slovenia that is strong, patient, constant, I say to them, he has the skills of a master, he is creative like the best artist, he is a great dad and husband. I wish you and your family the best not only because you deserve it but because I feel God is with you. Nick, Sr, Gentleman my respect and admiration.

Your craftsmanship is absolutely spectacular!!! It must be wonderful to be so talented. Did I miss an episode or is this the first video in which your wife showed what I have perceived to be a "baby bump". If so......may I say CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! If not........I am sooo embarrassed! Stay safe and stay healthy!

    My favorite part of this video has been the family reactions. Kid walking up and seeing the deck and saying "woooooow" and then proceeding to help, and the wife/girlfriend coming out after dropping that massive log on the balcony and saying "what are you doing?" and then smiling and giving a kiss. You're living the dream man.

    Thank you again for bringing us along as you carefully and skillfully cut each log to fit into place like one big jigsaw puzzle piece. As I watch and learn I find it somehow is very soothing to my mind something like mental therapy. Such a legacy you have created for yourself and your family. Congratulations on your next born child! He or she will be so lucky to have you as a father. I like how you don't edit out your mistakes or mishaps because it brings to your videos a more natural feel and down to earth ..... quality unlike so many other plastic and prefabricated pieces of commercial garbage being pushed out there on the web. No question that you are an artist it shows in the work of your hands to the amazing scenery you add to all your videos. I could watch for hours. I will keep coming back to your videos because there is always something new and different and breathtaking to see. Again Thank you so much my cyber friend. Impressed, Me southern AZ. ( USA )
