    Hello I'm currently designing a building with the aim to use no/as little concrete and was wondering if you reckon your method of connecting the timber column to the stone foundation via a metal rid would work in a stone wall that was already made and mortared together, ie. picking out a stone along the wall and then implementing your method (In practical terms I can imagine it would be a bit of a nuisance to hold the column above the stone but in theory would the stone wall be able to support the load). Another thing I am curious about is there a specific type of stone that works best ie. metamorphic/sedimentary/igneous rock.

    Boy, it's really easy to get lost in life's troubles. I asked you about your favorite saw on Instagram today, and long story short, your reply brought me back to this video. I found you a long time ago before my wife and I embarked on our homestead lifestyle, and I watched all of your videos back then. I still follow you on all platforms, but I've been disconnected for years. We're off grid now and doing well......but I have completely lost sight of what my vision was. This has brought me back to it. Iron truly does sharpen iron. Thank you, sir. Keep up the vision...

    This is a beautiful little bed. I have a question, @Mr. Chickadee. I notice that all of your “pins” are inserted from the top down, but for one on each side of the footboard. Why are those two inserted in a bottom up direction?

    Very nice. An interesting amalgamation of eras in hand tool woodworking. Cut nails and clinched wrought nails, a wooden plane and a steel plane, egg beater drill but with a center bit, a “modern” claw hammer and a hewing hatchet instead of a bow saw. Resourceful and reverent of old techniques. Like Matthias Wandel, Eric Sloane, and Roy Underhill all at once.

    So awesome. Do you need a specific soil type to be able to do this? Wanting to build a cabin with stone footings like this but it's sited next a creek (in some cases maybe even in it).. The soil is pretty sandy too, so am a bit worried about erosion. Thinking I could dig further and really bed the stones in?

    Being someone who likes the simple life and being close to nature, I’d get one of these….if only I could find one that’s gasoline powered, you could sit on, had an automatic height adjustment and a bagger. Otherwise, it seems like too much work. 😅

    Thank you for these great videos. Are the plans you followed still available? My husband and I are interested in building a timber frame home ourselves, but we can only seem to find Western style plans. We'd prefer to build in the Japanese style and place one beam at a time rather than attempting to raise full bents. Thanks
