Abandoned cabin in Montana | 1889 PROJECT. 

An 1889 Montana homestead house, on the brink of being lost, is about to be saved. From rebuilding the stone foundation, to milling wood from the surrounding forest, to putting back the windows and doors: this old cabin is coming back to life. Join us for a multi-episode series documenting the struggles and joys of saving a piece of history. We will harvest materials from the land and delve deep into the history of the Wild West.
Watch as we walk out into the forest to cut trees. Then wheel out the Woodmizer LT-40 sawmill to cut and mill all the lumber we will need for this project. If you love experimental archaeology or building houses or crafting handmade furniture, then this series will be immensely satisfying. From hand tools to complex power tools, there is something for every project person.
We are three friends with a passion for history, building, and everything handmade. One grew up 5th generation on this Montana ranch. One studied architecture and design in the big city. And one of us mastered the art of photography and editing. Come along with our group of friends as we put our blood, sweat and tears into building a house from the land.
