Building ROOF Structure for Log Cabin | My Grandfather helps me 

I wasn't thinking he was cheating, back in the days when England was first invaded they built houses in groups, everyone sleeps in whatever houses were finished and they build more... they would put todays construction industry to shame, they still farmed more better and they fought better too... kinda miss watching those series it's the closest thing to Historians delving into stand up comedy

We also have to consider that he COULD have done it by hand but he would have wasted a lot of resources for another wooden ramp. Also, he still uses only hand tools so it's not about lazyness or time.

Still cheated

@@HyrumManuel let's see you get it done solo.

Back then they cheated with horses and good neighbours.

Especially if he tells it in the cabin!

He sure is! I wish I was able bodied again to do this! especially with utube to learn how!

And he has proof that he's done it.

He’s gonna wait his whole life till they’re the exact age he is an it’s over

"When I was your age ... I became a youtube superstar!" :D

At first I thought his grandfather time traveled from the early 20th century in the beginning of the video

He just dresses like it’s the 20s

looked like a quaker lol

He’s dressed like this the whole series buddy

@@acolyte1951 Bro rocks the look too.

Right? So satisfying watching this build go on and progress further. While I love my FPS Games, this is truly better.

Sameee

Same here

I am glad, too. Great watch

It is young men like him that give me hope for the future. Too bad the majority of today's young adults (especially in the USA) are not like him.

I think you would also really like primitive technology, he does some very relaxing stuff as well.

omg the shit some people say

i agree that kid works !

Like a true gangster

Perhaps Erik was born by Caesarean section - could explain leaving out the windows.

Smiling proudly 😊

especially when they dress like one

Grandpa with a tractor

May I ask why you put coins between some of the logs?

Your wrong

And it's not the like our forefathers just casually lifted a 200kg log on top of a roof with one man anyway, lol.

@@sh0werp0wer I'm sure four fathers to do that

Absolutely! I showed my kids my video of when i made a cabin and that's exactly what they said too! They were too young to help at the time.

Bah, of course he came back to bring old mom home to the cabin.

Eriks mom: go build a den in the woods Erik: Okay see you in 2 years

@@LetoZeth lol

Lol

@@Luke-qk1nn lol hahahaha

And even if he didnt, chopping down a few trees wouldn’t hurt the environment much. The other remaining trees would just use what their tree ancestors gave them and plant their seeds.

That’s good that it wouldn’t hurt the environment much!! Wouldn’t want to ruin such a beautiful place🙃

he did at min 5:40

old swedish saying. cut down 1 plant 2. thats why we get more and more forest in sweden

That’s an amazing saying and I wish more people stood by it😔

Do you know the meaning of why did he put those coins before that log?

@@HugoMartinez-bm4kv apperantly superstition to live healthy and wealthy. This could be wrong though as I am just saying what I read on another comment.

There will always be money in this house!

Ahahha why do I keep thirsting for more!

I've felt for sometime that RU-vid should have a Super-Like button, which each person has a limited number of per year to give out, but it counts as five likes on their algorithm.

And so alts were born

I ad a 👍👍 like more than once!

Yea I been waiting to watch this.

Put a "like" on the positive and supportive comments. That helps too!

Yess, he also gained so much muscle, it is impressive.

This, I understand. Had to lay hundreds of meters of fences and sink them in the earth, and they're australian trees. So there was some jarrah logs. Very heavy hardwood.

@iamdri it's super easy. He cheated

No Thanks. I can tell it's difficult. That's what large men are for hahahah

I look at this video's before i go to bed haha!

I slept to these videos just after waking up and slept for 11 hours straight at that.

lol i fell asleep watching this last night. The sound of woodchopping ended up in my dream. hahahah

Yeah did it last night, slept like a baby

The moment when a video makes you feels so relaxed you want to sleep. Or like me you’re watching this around 4:00 and can’t stop watching until your body needs sleep because this is the best content on RU-vid in a while

Literally 🤣🤣

SAME FOR ME I WATCHED THE 2 HOUR VIDEO LAST I THINK THE NIGHT BEFORE YESTERDAY I CANT REMEMBER AND I WAS SO INVESTEDDD

For me it was 2:30 at night 😂

For me it's 3 am🤣

Saaamme hahahaha

I noticed this too! And he isn't super jacked and big either.

@@biggusriggus7693 being big, and being strong are not the same :)

@@FreekHoekstra completely agree with you. Just stating, most people you see who can do this kind of work are usually super cut and are normally bigger people. This guy looks like a normal person who isn't very strong and is carrying logs that are hundreds of pounds. I'm just impressed tbh

@@biggusriggus7693 Look at pictures of early day loggers before power equipment. Same thing. They were just of average builds but unbelievably fit and strong.

Its funny When People who don‘t lift Talk about lifting

Can honestly say that it's never been my dream to build my own log cabin or live in the woods, following others to learn to do it in youtube is enough. Great videos these.

Can't wait for the interior

Not

@@pavelss1189 Can't means Can not

Ikr

I was literally coming to the comments just to comment “YASSSSSSSS” and I see this. Perfect😂

That is a long time to wait for a beer...

A keg of beer!

A pack man

maybe you should try your hand at it. maybe not a house. but there are lots of things you could do. but yeah i agree it is relaxing watching him.

Try building desks and sorts you learn a good skill and its a good hobby i likr building small things like that

@@crypticsauce5394 personally i like to make archery bows. But that takes a lot of practice and research. Desk or table good place to start.

@@crypticsauce5394 yeah creating is nice. I love throwing clay and I do build my own canvasses and some furniture in my home is hand made. I'm also a full time artist. So I creating and using my hands is all I know. It just the struggle of never feeling good enough or trying to mend mental scars.

@@andrewsmart8996 well I do like to throw clay. I'm a big fan of making my own noodle bowls. ^^

Fat people be like "Its not my lifestyle, its just my genetics" sure, spent a year buildin a cabin and see if you´re still fat

@@EpicBoy94 they like to complain they stay the same

@@EpicBoy94 you haven't had to work a day in your life and it shows, cringe.

@@pseudolemon8272 i´ve work for logistics for a medical company, loading and un loading trucks, filling shelves and moving heavy machines around. Its not building a cabin but i´ve had really physical intensive jobs. I´m not sure why you think otherwise

@@EpicBoy94 I sometimes forget people like you exist. People that have literally experienced life, seen the struggles of it, seen how it can consume you, and then blame people that have it rough for not working hard enough. This kid is living a privileged life, building under a mentor in a land he owns, most likely being fed by people that care for him and have safeguarded his life since birth. I am by no means taking away his massive accomplishment, but to use this kid's life as fuel for the argument that fat people are lazy and should just get up out of their asses and build a cabin, is beyond disrespectful and apathic to the human struggle. I live around a lot of fat people, people that self loath constantly, and that either lack the mental or physical fortitude to leave their 8-10 hour desk job that pays the bills and go work out, because they need to deal with the struggles of personal life, bad finances, and all the shit that gets in the way of living your best life. It's beyond disrespectful to blame people's weight on laziness. Most, if not all, were born into a less caring household, were fed bad food, were given bad habits or allowed to indulge, and are living under precarious situations that demand focus out of personal health. It takes being a man to drop the ego that you are better than anyone, and understand that life allowed to to be better, because it provided better conditions for you to be that way.

That's one of the best parts of building for sure!

Try speed x2, it's better

I watched his other video on it and I’m glad I spent 2 hours and 30 minutes on these

@@chrisrivera2654 Ive seen 2 hour video + two 30 minute ones

@@iksvolokin9150 NO IT DESTROYS FEELING

Women and non-binary too. Anyone who thinks the ladies didn't help with this stuff back in the day needs to get better educated

In fact i will

Probably people thinking that he is wasting trees for youtube lol

There's always miserable people.

@@JohnSmith-ng2ekDo share a video and let us know how it goes.

Yes! I wonder where he gets them from. I'm always looking for historical clothes that actually look legit and good. Because a lot of the places I find have clothes that always have thin materials that don't fit to the esthetic or are low quality with bad stitches. I'm terrible at sewing and sadly don't have the time to improve on my sewing skills, so I always hope to find these nice historical clothes in shops waiting for me.

I live in the western part of Illinois and near my small town about 5 miles away there is a mennonite ran store that sells clothes

that's the terrible trouble w a lot millennials n other youngsters. not a clue about what hard work is, thinking it all has always been delivery service n starbucks sugar b0mb n everything a few fingertips on a keybord away. AND ALL THE TIME NAGGING AND COMPLAINING ABOUT A WEAK SIGNAL OR WHATEVER. GOOD LUCK W THAT ATTITUDE.

Oh was that what bird it was, I was wondering. Didn't sound like 'Nevermore' to me.

My first thought. How many splinters did he catch in all of this?

@Dita fon teese be quiet “greenie”

@Dita fon teese Maybe his family owns the forest? Did you think about that?

@Dita fon teese bruh.

@Dita fon teese the trees around it plant their seeds in the new space, causing more trees to appear

@Dita fon teese So you missed the part where he replanted?

Why don't you start today?

@@iwilltubeyouall bro, i can't afford that... means those tools, i can't afford.

@@tusharchaudhari1510 but you start as those primitive survival channels do.

@@tusharchaudhari1510 dude you can make those tools there's tutorirals of how to do them

He's Swedish is fine

It mainly just adds tons of weight too it if it soaks in

@@bjornlothbrok1964 this is definitely coming from someone who is watching this on their phone, on the couch, eating chips probably

@@bjornlothbrok1964 so achieving a project alone maybe to find yourself is anti-social. you have no knowledge whatsoever about this guy... he really doesnt appear anti-social at all

@@bjornlothbrok1964 It’s just a personal project, why are you so mad? What’s wrong with you? I personally would like to build something like this

Are the coins a good luck thing? Love that 💓

@@DDL2728 Yes it is. Ther ar meny explaining in this comments. Look around and you will find alot of good exp, to your question. 😊👍 /J

@@janne65olsson I saw those after I asked him.
