    Hello, Thanks for letting us enjoy the project with you. I have a question: witch 3D drawing software do you use. I have see it in your videos but cant find the exact video. I tried Sketchup but that crashes on me.

    Consider charring the peeled poles prior to putting them in the ground. Old tech method of treating poles for rot/insects

    I seriously can’t believe you made a home out of a derelict mountain cabin. I don’t think many people nowadays could ever achieve this (I definitely can’t!), and it has been a satisfying experience watching your weekly videos and waiting for the next update.

    Салют. Очевидно, что вы, парни, люди творческого труда. Такие плоские и разновесные камни для крыши удобнее носить с помощью широких текстильных строп. Перекидывая их через плечи. Так грузчики носят все неудобные и тяжелые грузы по лестницам этажей и в узких проходах. Руки свободны и груз распределён на плечи и верх спины, а не на кисти, предплечья и поясницу.

    Madre mía!! He😢😢 con este vídeo,espectacular!! como a quedado la cabaña!,Estoy enamorada de ella.😍😍.Un gran trabajo Martijn ,que belleza de dormitorio/baño,todos esos dellates (grifos, cabecero,luces,cuadros,etc), dormirás genial! La estancia de arriba se ve más acogedora que antes con el sofá,el añadir imágenes de como ha sido el proceso de renovación es todo un detalle. Me faltan palabras para describir lo emocionada y feliz que me siento con este vídeo. Muchísimas gracias por este viaje tan bello. Mucho ánimo 💪para la siguiente obra de arte(proyecto de invernadero).

    Martijn, great goal acomplished, huge milestone ! was wondering are you planing to change the upper door ? You said its finished, but those gaps will be impossible to close in winter and you will loose great amount of heat this way. i know you should have thought about this already, jsut wanted to get your perspective. cheers

    Great job on finishing the cabin. It looks great. Only one thing that would annoy me is the sink spout in the bedroom. I like to put my head over the sink and use my hands to wash my face and hair. The spout being so far out would be in the way. But apart from that it all looks really nice. I find that having the wildlife cam on photo only gives much better results and a longer battery life. Maybe some of your bigger odd shaped rocks around the bottom of the chicken coup would deter predators somewhat. Thanks for sharing. ATB regards from the UK

    Someday I want to be able to live like you. Having my shit together, living my dream and being passionate about it every day. And all of that in harmony with nature. The cabin looks incredibly beautiful and cozy. It also gives such a secure feeling. I love your editing style, but if you ever need an editor for something, it would be an honor to work for you. Im 24 right now, studying my passion, which is editing. Much love from germany and thank you so much for all of this works. It's a beautiful reflection for others, seeking peace and harmony.

    Hi Martijn, the place looks amazing. Love your choices in antique furniture like the beautiful living room hutch. Love what you did in the bedroom with the wooden accent wall that also acts as your headboard. Great final design details in the bedside wall lights, the bathroom vanity all looks amazing and very cozy. I also like your choices in sofa and accent chair. I am sure you mentioned this and I missed it but will you be planning to put some sort of railing going down to the bedroom? I am sure you are. Finally, looks like you enjoy having company and entertaining for family and friends and don’t appear to have a big enough table so may I suggest either trying to buy or build your own mobile table/mini island on rollers which can be moved over to a corner when you are not using it? I think this would be a great solution to a kitchen table. Just an idea. Well, it’s time to relax a bit and reap the rewards of all your hard labor and enjoy your beautiful little home you built. Great job! We are all proud of you! 👏
