It isn't being nervous, but smart being safe. I took a fall working construction 40 years ago and have daily suffered pain since. You cannot be too careful! There are NO do overs after a fall. Looks Great!
Heights make me nervous. But you got it done ✔️. Its going very well Mr. Sean. Looking very nice every video i watch. I think watching you do this and getting all you want to do done. You maybe be helping others who maybe soing there for the first time as well. Love hearing the rooster and Ladies, Black Beauty's when you making a video. Your rooster is loud and i love it. Hes a proud one for sure. Have a great one. See you next video Mr. Sean.
I'll tell ya, that rooster wouldn't last long at my place. He'd become a hot chicken dinner real quickly. Great work Sean ! You are certainly making good progress.
I found your channel by accident after watching several I subscribed. I have seen to many off Grid cabin builds where they show up with their own back hoes and skid steers then call a road builder to clear their site then put up a log home kit or a 40x 60 metel building connect to electric and internet asay off grid. Keep up the great work and inspire others to follow you
I watched while holding my breath as you were up So high!! Such a fine Home Sean!!! I've been foraging in woods and picked blackberries and choke cherries so far for jelly, jam and juice for winter. Busy in gardens too. Stay safe and strong!! See you on your next video!! Well done Sean!!!
Sean, you couldn’t hear me telling you to put the tyvek under the top one? Maybe you have a better idea, anyway, tyvek is hard for one person, like trying to staple a sail, for two people one always gets a finger stapled, don’t ask me how I know! Nice work on those facia boards, happy you got Todd to come over, looks really nice, great job!
Todd the Bod is back! So…I’ve watched all your building videos and loved every minute. Can you recommend other channels to watch that are similar and that gave you inspiration? Thanks for your hard work. We appreciate you
Thank you so much! Ok....in no particular order... @Mapleberry Farms, @Jay and Jen offgrid, @Kyles cabin, @Theoutsider, @Bushradical and the list goes on!!! Lol Oh, and for the serious stuff... My Self Reliance hahhahhahah
Starting to look like a roof! Lol. I just ordered my metal. Should be in next week. Dont let me get ahead of ya! Haha! No chance of that anyways. I don't have crap done on the inside. Lol
Your noisy birds have made me realize my free loaders haven't been making any noises for several weeks. No crowing, nothing. Only found 1 egg in over a week. I'm over this heat. And breaking your neck would be overkill. Just went to the doctor and my wrist is no longer broken, it has healed nicely. Believe me, a broken wrist is more then enough fun.
The grunts and groans take their toll hahahhaha...and yup, this is my first ever project, not counting the chicken coop lol. I will tell you what...this is FUN!
You definitely need to try yourself up with a safety doing it yourself I've been in your shoes it's not fun but God bless you on this build you did a great job
You’ve made great progress Sean and it’s always a good thing when you’ve got a pro-active bro. I was wondering, are you gonna tuck tape the seems of the Tyvek?
@@SeanInAlaska I hate when that happens but it looks like your on the right track… as for me, finished installing the floors and now on to continuing sanding the oak wood cabinets… never ending but love it!
You're coming right along!! I wanted to ask, but hope I'm not getting to personal... But, how much is it costing to do this house? And are you buying everything, some, or minimal items from the store/hardware store? Trying to guage and plan 😊
Thanks, I have no problem sharing this. Metal for the roof and all I figure I am at about 20k based on what I had when I started...maybe 25k. I am buying most of my lumber from the orange store lol... Home Depot. I paid 2100 for the driveway work and the gravel but the rest I have done on weekends and after work each day.
Oh wow!! Is that just for the roof/front part ur doing now? If so, then the entire project is quite costly, considering what and how you want things, I'm assuming then. Can't wait to see the finished project!!
@SeanInAlaska now that is some good news!! I always had the thought, if u built like this, up there, then u would be out a LARGE sum of money....you sir just made the motivation needle jump!!
looked in on your site to see how your cabin build is progressing looking good wish I had the skills to do what your doing no kilt anymore ? was over in Ireland resently for the first time poor folk there are having a dreadful time with these migrants flooding into Ireland its the same here in Scotland its become really concerning here and in Ireland in a way my trip there was disappointing Ireland is a carbon copy of Scotland only difference the "accents" still I loved my trip there haha
so roof on before winter yayyyyyyy, will you be installing the logfire/woodburner before winter too and if so will u buy wood this year? and does the woodburner burn just wood or does it have a grate in it for coal?
Yup, roof on before winter...stove in before winter and I will most likely purchase some wood to go along with what I cut myself. I am not sure if this stove burns coal or not lol there is no grate in it but I have read it will
I thought you were going to tuck under the middle strip of Tyvek. You even left the upper piece loose at the bottom for this... Does it make a difference to lap the Tyvek?
I literally forgot when I got to that stage and then stapled it all off. I am taping all the seams though so I should be ok! Sometimes I get in too big of a hurry lol
Yeah, I have no idea how people in triple digits survive hahahhaha. I borrowed the scaffolding from a friend who was in no hurry to get it back lol....
@@SeanInAlaska That's cool that you knew someone that you could borrow the scaffolding from!! I really like how you used the pieces of 2X4 to block the scaffold legs so that they didn't slip over the edge and make for a very bad day!! Honestly Sean, I don't know how I'm surviving in this heat. We went out to eat this evening and just walking from the parking lot in and out in 110 degree heat totally drained me! and we're not even to the hottest part of the year... everything in the yards is dead... grass is crunchy brown or just dust; trees are dying, shrubs are dying, I can't let the dogs out for more than 5 minutes for fear of them having heat strokes... and there is no relief in sight... sadly, about all that breaks these horrific heat waves is a hurricane coming ashore from the Gulf in close proximity... and I don't wish that on anyone either. It would be like southern California - mud slides, wide spread power outages, flooding... Nope buddy, I'm coming your way next spring come Hell (which is already here) or high water!!
What do you chew Sean, I see the can ring in your back pocket, why didn't you pull up your step ladder to go to the top, safer and easier than what you were doing, you can use planks ,not just the rails you were using. It looked tough, and you edited out the next few times, you aren't a spring chicken anymore lol.
I stopped being a spring chicken 10 yeats or more ago lol....Grizzly fine cut 😉 the smaller ladder will be used on the backside but I didn't really need it here. The main reason I edited it out is simple really....climbing down to turn the dang camera off and on was a pain hahahhaha...
😂🤣😂 oh, he drives me more crazy than he does you hahaha...trust me! All of the build videos and earlier are without him....next week will most likely be his last video 😉
