Showing a baby goat balancing on it's mother back and then cutting to a sheep getting a feed bucket stuck on it's head is a pretty good summary on sheep and goats.

For the wall "logs," it would be efficient to take stock of how many of each variation is needed. Then, in a flat area, lay out all the boards and put them together as such. It might be more exact, and there'd be less picking up and putting down of various tools. That way, when it comes to building, it'd just be playing with legos.

Here's some synchronicity for you. I was just watching another channel I follow Martijn Doorland who is restoring a stone cabin in the Italian Alps and he just suffered a tremendous storm with devastation on his site. He's spent the last week restoring things. Adversity strikes but we keep a stiff upper lip and move on. Loved the baby sheep and goats. We used to keep goats and they were terrible brats. My Dad would come in for a break and they would try to turn the door knob so they could come in too. They were up on our cars and eating my Mom's precious flowers. lol

Looking good. I believe I would have knocked together a couple of sawhorses to build those “logs” more at waist level. That’s a lot of bending over, at least for me. Also a couple of jigs to get the spacing the same rather than measuring each one. Measure once, build a jig, end repetitive measuring. You’re doing good though holding down a full time job, farming animals, and this. Got a little worried it had been three weeks since your last video.

True. I may bring a couple up there eventually.

Jamie I had so much anxiety while you were building the logs this time. I had the most anxiety while you were in the corner with the circular saw. I just knew you were going to injure yourself. I believe you would have been far safer with a reciprocating saw or the saw you used in the beginning of the video to cut the tree. As you were assembling the logs you dropped your caulk gun and other tools at your feet hindering you and tripping you too. Just as a suggestion, you could spend a few minutes building yourself a jig to get the offsets you need for your log assembly. I speak from experience, the clutter at your feet during a project can cause an injury. It may be a minor injury or major, but take that moment for prevention, or this cabin build may end up feeling like the farm chores you spoke of in the beginning of the video. Thanks for sharing this build with us, and tell your boss lady thank you for sharing you with us too.
