Haha about time you did something for all that labor he has given you for free. Oops 🙊 haha bro just joking. Sorry had to get a new KZread account my old name was BigP which I talked with you on your channel about the I F pool in North Dallas area. Wife and I got hacked cause the AT&t breach. They hacked our accounts and took our phone numbers switched carriers on us.

If there’s anyone around that neck of the woods who has connections in the old concrete game…..

No need to remove the pretty holly tree - whether or not the maple makes it. Simply remove the lower half of the limbs from your holly tree and you can stand and look out the kitchen window to the pond - all the way to the far side. The holly tree will get taller and you will have a pretty view and a nice specimen tree.

That is an excellent framing carpenter crew! All the headers are properly sized and the floor joists, studs and rafters are "stacked." I'm glad to see professionals of that quality still exists.

Chris, you should use the nice scraps you have left over for a nice dog house it will match the cabin perfectly

It's what I would call a farm cottage - a little smaller than a house and a little larger than a cabin. No matter what it is a pretty setting and the colour scheme chosen will blend with the surroundings beautifully. That hay field is magnificent - great hay making weather too. Loving it all LetsDig18.

I remember when this was all a dream Chris had a few years back when he bought the additional property and started cleaning and clearing ,Knowing Chris it's going to be awesome

Chris, your vision of how you want it to look is really taking shape. It looks wonderful so far!

I am so jealous, that "cabin" is bigger than my house and about 53 years newer. Soooo jealous! It will a great place to spend quiet relaxing times. Congrats on realizing a dream.

Chris try trimming up and or pruning the holly bush. I does have a great shape and there is a mate on the other side I think? You can always cut it down later. Beautiful cabin. Great attention to detail by the builder. Can't wait to see the siding and roof. Proud for you. Take care and have a great week.

Thumbs up on the conditioned crawlspace. I did that to my crawlspace about five years age and it has made a huge difference in the comfort of the whole house. I'm on the water in eastern VA and humidity is no longer a problem and the maple floors are now stable from season to season. I used a system from a company in SC and it worked really well.

That is going to be a sweet addition to the farm!! Those boys fly when they build!!

It's nice to have friends like Jeff to get things rolling.

So refreshing to see construction done right & an efficient builder! This cottage will be a gem!

Excellent job on house and landscaping so far. Looks like they do great work. Have a Blessed Day.

WOW, so happy for ya. You work so smart and hard, its nice to see the fruits of your labor.

Wow wow wow Beautiful house / cottage. Yup goodbye holly tree. Those smaller trees just need a little pruning. Drive a ring of holes around the maple at the drip edge. To put in fertilizer in them. To help boost the maple tree. You really do have a eye for perfection.

Good afternoon Chris. I've been waiting for this project.

☘️🇮🇪🇺🇸 wow Chris it’s GORGEOUS!!! Again you prove construction sites can be clean neat organised. The house is just perfect snugged in by the pond , you truly are a master of design blessing 🌹🙏🏼

You sure picked a perfect view for the cabin. Looks amazing already.

Love seeing the progress on these builds.

Looking Great, Chris. You Can’t Beat the Workmanship of the Amish or Mennonites. 👍🙏

Nice to see the cabin come together so quickly for Chris can't wait to see the rest of its done and thanks to the men you had to do and amazing job not wasting all the lumber cause the prices this days

Wow,that's really going to be quite the cabin. Looking great so far. Have a wonderful evening Chris,take care and God Bless!!!❤😊

Glad to see update on cabin they are doing great

Nice looking place...good spot to kick your feet up and relax when it's raining...

Been around since you first got the backhoe! My, how you've grown your business!

Chris, I want to be the first renter in that awesome cabin. I been liking your videos since you first started on KZread !👍👍

Build is looking great will be a great place to spend a week or two and relax have a great evening 👍🏻🇺🇲

Your builder is correct it called a cottage. It what contracts classified it as. Classy move with the ramp.

It’s 3 42 pm Tuesday afternoon , this cabin is smaller than your house but it’s got an awesome view of the water .

Chris, there's going to be some awesome views of the pond whether inside the cabin , or outside on that big deck. Great job they're doing!

Hi Chris it's coming along nicely but it's a sham about the Holly tree there a beautiful tree and there evergreen witch would look nice in winter when the other trees lose there leaves, thank's for another great video.

That’s a component builder! Looking great.

Hey Chris - looks awesome! It'll be done in no time! Thumbs up! Jim

Looks to me like Chris has one heck of a professional contactor he hires regularly. Same guy who built his house and the shop up next to his house. Gotta love a contractor who is frugal on wastage. That save lots of $$$$ for Chris.

The crew maintains a clean job site. That shows they take pride in there jobs.

Job well done 👍🏻

I was wondering when you would cut the field, thank you. Keep the Holly tree, it frames the pond nicely. :) Thank you for the updates to cottage. Have a great day.

Encapsulated crawlspaces are the way to go in the hot humid South.

Odd, my sister in Jacksonville, NC says they keep wanting her to add more venting

@@DeweyCheatumNHoweLLC Thats right for a vented crawlspace as usually there is insufficient venting. But even then, depending on how humid it is outside and how cold the a/c is set, you can still run into issues even with copious amounts of venting. Encapsulating and conditioning the crawlspace eliminates those problems. But encapsulating isn't right for every situation and is more expensive to construct than a vented space. Cancel Reply

@@95thousandroses Thanks. Now I understand it. Where I live, a crawl space is a novelty, usually a house built 100 years ago. That's why it's interesting to see that you can just level off a site, pack in good clay, and lay a slab on the ground. We have to go 4ft down for frost heave. But, we also get the benefit of having a huge basement to use.

Man that is where I would live. I like the pond view.

Very Nice! BDC rocks. I have to say that because I was there at the beginning when Glenn and Donna opened the RM store.

Some big raised garden beds would look sweet on either side of that concrete slab!

Thank you Chris for making this house handicap assamble.

Keep the holly tree if you can. At Christmas time lace it with coloured decoration lights and the usual trinkets to provide some thought and character. Try it for one Christmas, if it fails take it down afterwards.

Hi Chris awesome cabin my wife and I can’t wait to see the cabin when it’s all done ,and hope someday we can come and visit

I agree, they are doing a great job. It's looking good, that aft deck is going to be huge. Look forward to more progress.

Very nice Chris…It’s great to see more of your dream and goals come true. All which is being made possible from customer satisfaction, dedication , lots of stumps ..lol..😂 and dawn to dusk hard work.

Looks good Chris, very nice. I did the same thing on a beam in my sun room and was going to do the ends with steel plates to make it look more rustic, but I found a company that did all that in rubber "of course non structure" but the looks were phenomenal, imitates steel to the Tee!!! and lighter, HA!

That's going to be one beautiful cabin for Chris to rent out. The pond is going to make it easy to keep it booked regularly.

Wow, now that`s quick progress, very little waste is right, this guy knows how to order. I drive by housing sites and you see all the waste in the middle of the yard that is just going into a dumpster, whole pallets of brick just sitting there unused, it`s crazy.

Looking good Chris. Those guys do some very tidy work, as we see here & in what they've done previously.

Looking fantastic this could be a plan I would consider for my own Casa 🎉🎉

Maybe I need to talk my wife into a vacation to North Carolina, looks like beautiful little spot to relax for a week. Great job your over seeing Chris.

That is going to be o ne super super nice cabin / cottage / house I know you are proud of it

I like that it will look fancy but simple really like that sure is nice look forward to the finish. cheers

It’s going to be a beautiful cabin/house,with a beautiful view of the pond. ❤️❤️❤️❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

A sweet little building!

That’s going to look good when it’s done .

That is going to be a beautiful place,..

It's exciting!! Looking awesome. Very quick work. I can't wait to stay there!

Very nice, vaulted 1/2 interior. My house is the same way. 👍🇺🇲

I'm loving it. I can see why you use this contractor. He tries to be as efficient as you doing a job. That's almost no waste and everything is done exactly like you asked. I'll be surprised if you aren't booking 2 years in advance for the cabin rental as soon as you announce it is available. Hope you don't have any issues with government inspections. We all know how things are with the government. I can't wait for the next update and hopefully you get a lot of hay also. Great video Chris.

I like the cottage identity. Calling it a cabin or house is also fine. Loving the updates!

Its looking so nice Chris. Happy for you.

Coming along very well , 😎👀

looking great Chris

I just love your cabin\ house, its going to be amazing ❤

Wow Chris, In the 40 years that I have worked in construction, that is one of the cleanest job sites I have ever seen! Your guys are really good and Hardly any waste as well. It is looking great, and I do love the vertical board and batten idea. Can’t wait to see the final result. Looks like the only thing missing is me there with a fishing pole and not a care in the world! Congrats man!

Looking good!

That turned out real nice. Your little home cabin whatever it's going to be nice when it's done. What a spot. 👍👍🙂🇨🇦

We have a lake house on Lake Keowee in SC. It has a 12 x 40 back deck overlooking the lake. 1/3 of the deck is covered & screened. That’s the part of the deck we use 90% of the time so I’d encourage you to screen in the covered part of your back deck. Looking really great!! 👍😀

Excellent progress, Chris. Like the siding a lot and easy maintenance is important. I'm glad you mentioned when the first cutting on your field was happening, it looks so close. Thanks for updating us on this. Looks awesome.

That is coming along nicely. Looks great . Good craftsmanship 👍😃

Beautiful cottage, great video, you have a great vision and now it coming true. THANKS

Looking good ,great setting and it's going to be a quality build . Hard to find old school builders who don't leave a mess,don't waste materials as you said . I've watch workers on sites sitting next to the rubbish skips ,eating lunch and just throwing their waste and rubbish on the ground . Hard case that the only machine left at home was the loader/tractor,guess you need double ups of the machines so you don't run out 😅

Cabin is looking great!

Your cabins coming along nicely Chris👍awesome progress, you must be stoked😊

Beautiful ! Just cut the lower branches of the holy tree, so you can see the pond below it and keep it as a screen at the same time.

Amazing.

Hey Chris, I like the look of the cabin. I like the idea of a ramp, at least in the front. That makes it accessible for someone like me who uses a wheelchair. I wish I could visit a place like this, but I am not able to travel much anymore. Best of luck in your adventures.

Hi Chris, that is going to be one really nice cottage, cabin, house, or whatever you call it it is looking really nice. Thanks for sharing, Chris, and god bless you. Be safe out there.

I'm Ready Brother, Where Does One Sign Up For A Stay????

That's looking great. I agree with taking the vents out. Going to be a winner!

Builder is very meticulous 👍🏻. I like that. Cabin/cottage/house is coming along. Congratulations Chris

I think I’d have put some bigger bifold doors on the rear in the living area to make better use of the outside space/view

WOW That is very nice!!

Awesome. 👍👍

0-waste -- Your man does design, material order and build - love it. I'm a Mennonite at heart. :)

Looking great! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

Please save the holly tree. I would trim them all up so that you just have a top canopy, as somebody else is suggested, and then if it blocks your view which I don’t think it will from my La-Z-Boy, you could cut it if you have to. But I think trimming the trunks up so that you have a nice clear canopy underneath it might save the trees. I think all the trees along the water edge would be trimmed up to make a beautiful view. It’s already beautiful, but I think it would be better. Sorry for rambling.

Really nice Chris !

Very nice

Thanks for sharing the update. I enjoy seeing the progress.

Looking great Chris!

Looks good, Chris, real good. Thanks for sharing.

These guys are flying. Looks great!

Super nice Chris ! Outdoor kitchen would be awesome overlooking the pond.

Everything coming along real nicely 😊

Thank you for the update.

looking fantastic Chris, thanks for the update..
