My Story:
When I graduated high school I sought a big challenge in life. To alone, with only simple hand tools and raw power, build my own traditional off grid log cabin by hand from the materials of the Swedish forest. I film everything myself and edit these videos so you can follow my journey and hopefully learn as I do. I have no earlier experience in any of this, just a visualization of what I want to achieve and willpower to learn and improve everything necessary. So I enjoy reading good advice in the comments. Enjoy!

This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things ru-vid.comUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

Erik - here in the United States - specifically Minnesota and Wisconsin, we are well acquainted with the pleasures of a sauna, then followed quickly by a dip in some cold water. When I was growing up, there was a sauna that was located right next to a trout pond. We would go in and get toasty warm and red all over. Then, we would bolt out of the sauna and jump into the cold water. When the ice got too thick to break on the pond - we just rolled around in the snow - then, back to the sauna. It was a common phrase to hear around the house "Sauna bath ist gut for Viking, make him big and strong."

@ReferenceFidelityComponents 2 года назад

I have been very impressed by your skill, endurance and motivation. Great to see old skills and knowledge handed down. A former chartered civil engineer and now a humble cabinet maker, I can identify with much of what you have done. One piece of advice above all is to look after your back. Having two prolapsed discs in mine, it limits what one can do and causes terrible pain and when younger, I thought I was invincible when I wasn't. Look after your back young man and it will look after you. Great work, you should be very proud of yourself😊

They put money ahead of everything else in life. No matter how hard they try, they never get there. It is wise to recognize the simple, smaller things in life when you have them, and be content that sometimes more, is not necessarily better.

Might be a bit late, but just as a suggestion, when insulating forest cabins it might be actually better to use PIR insulation as it does not attract mice. I'm just renovating an old log house in Sweden and have removed all rockwool insulation as there are endless little channels that mice have dug out over the years. And from what I know PIR insulation avoids this problem. But regardless great work, Best John

@gurtygurtrude 3 года назад

@@gurtygurtrude Sure, you are right PIR is a hard foam. If it is all natural or old school, then use sawdust, but is also very much enjoyed by mice.

I'm from Belarus and I don't know, how I got one of your videos in my recommendations, but thanks to RU-vid for that, because what you do is really amazing. This is a huge job. When I see someone putting their whole soul into their project, it is insanely inspiring. Thank you for what you are doing! Р. S. I apologize for any possible mistakes. English isn't my native language :c P. P. S. Maybe you have an Instagram or any other place, where I and others can watch the construction process and you a little more often?
