Cabin/Shed Built With Pallet Wood On Off Grid Land! DIY 

I enjoy watching your progress. I realize how hard the work is. Nothing like manual labor. You did a great job!!!!

my kind of video. love to see people build using pallets. only wood you can afford now.

Couple of bottles of expanding foam on the inside and you are golden

I crack up anytime someone says pallet wood is "free" lol They obviously have never taken a bunch of pallets apart! 🪚 🔨

Love this video. I'm getting started on building a winter shed out of pallets for some goats we're buying. Your video was incredibly helpful. Gave me a bunch of super useful ideas and how to do things. And gave me confidence I can do this without the shed collapsing on itself!

You may want to debark your trees first will last longer and keep insects out of wood that will cause rotting it’s a lot of work but if trees are green should peel easily

I like this cabin/shed. Personally, I would call it a cabin. So many ideas. I would put lots of windows in, especially 1s where u can open them up with screen on the outside. I would also have a micro wood stove 4 heating. Would put a pallet floor down & shore it up, so when u walk on it, it wouldn't have under all the weight. I'd use some of the boards from the pallets 2 lay a floor over the other 1s . Use a composting toilet 4 the bthrm. Camping stove 2 cook on. Solar panels 2 have a smaller fridge & possibly lights...........so many ideas. 2 bad he couldn't come build us 1- that would be so cool, & we'd have r very own home. 🙂

Dude. Safety. Watching you on the shaky ladder with a chainsaw in your hands, scary AF!! You're by yourself, if you get hurt, you're screwed. Be safety conscious. Shed looks great 👍🏻

Nice, a fellow NYer and pallet builder. You may want to look into some of the cheap attachments they sell to make beams and lumber with your chainsaw, actually work pretty good.

Liquid nail is an adhesive, not a crack filler. You probably want silicone caulk to fill the gaps, should you care. Also, if you plan on putting real time into that shed, you need to waterproof the base of it. For example, raise it up on concrete pavers and put a layer of sill seal on them. If left as-is, the bottom boards will rot. The style of roof you're talking about, slanting in one direction, is called a "shed roof". The other style, with a beam high in the center, is called a "gable roof". Your shed is around 10 feet wide, and the drop is around 2 feet, so you have a pitch that's 2.4/12. That's fairly shallow for a snowy environment. Build sturdy, and beware the heavy snow loads. Definitely build this up over the next six months.

I am a journeyman carpenter and I do use pallet wood to make small things. there is nothing wrong with using it. The only thing that you would want to do is replace the drywall screws on the roof as soon as possible. they are not weather resistant and will rust thru in a very short time. The ones I used on my wood fence only lasted a year before the heads started popping off.

I think it's cool you did this by yourself !

Pallets are awesome for building... I have a deck on to my tiny house made of pallets, with a roof above it also from pallets... Great build

Disk Golf !!! Go Buddy!! Great video, Great pallet house, !!!!!

Good work. A bit bigger roof sheets should better protect wooden walls from oblique rain. Hope you are doing well there.

That little pallet wood cabin/shed looks really good. You did a great job using what you had that was all left there on the land. Remember ... safety first!!! Thanks for the video, hope that you're feeling better.

Pretty fantastic out of scrap pallets. Great job

I think I would get a couple rolls of roofing material and use that on the exterior of the shed/building and not worry about painting it but that just me. good job.

I want to do similar, Ill use a timber or concreate base leave full pallets (both sides) then wrap in plastic (both sides) fill the middle with insulation I was going to tin the outside and do strips on the inside but washing yours I may do 3 overlaps on the outside and use it as a insulated room.

Great job, thanks for sharing. I'm in the process of doing the same, but I'm doing a coop.

Awesome 👏

Wow great job and great video's. 🌸

Good way to make use of those pallets! Cool vid!

Good morning from new Zealand,you did an amazing job I'd love to build Something like this near my boat..looks like a awesome property and my thoughts are it's your land so if you need to clear parts and use the wood it's your right to..anyone who's never lived offgrid or on the land doesn't understand such things..like others do. Have an amazing rest of your week.. It's pretty incredible what can be created from pallets.

That would make a nice firewood storage

Nice video. Thanks 4 sharing. To be honest, I'm a little envious!!

This looks really nice🎈🦋 I really look forward to seeing the next steps that you take to complete the project🎈

I would get a barrel stove kit a build one out of 55 gallon barrel for heat . Can load it up get it going and shut damper and door air down and let it go . Will last long time and nice heat and can use good size logs 8 -10” round and we use 18-20” long in a wall tent 14’x16’ 8’ tall

It's cool that you are at least doing something. I'm sure alot of people have criticized you about building it and how you built it but I bet those are the same folks that sit around doing nothing. Absolutely nothing. Can I tell you one thing..when you use any power tools man...either take them gloves off or find a secure spot for them strings hanging out!! My God! When u were using the saw you just bought I was like.. 😮. But hey keel building most people have no idea what a challenge it can be building with pallets.

Awesome video man

Well done, mate. 👍👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘🦘

Just found your channel and subbed🥳🎉🎈

Kudos to you buddy well done

I looove that. Looks so good!

Hey I wanted to ask how are you doing health wise iam keeping you in my prayers great looking shed looks realy great nice job you know what your doing keep bringing the good videos your friend from pilotmoutain northcarolina

Starting mine today im sick of these slumlords over charging for jailcell sized apartments

I can't be the only one can I? I haven't looked to see yet....

Great job on the shed.

Ryobi does a 18 gauge nail gun, you could get one of them and it would save you driving into town to keep buying gas for your gas nail gun and also fuel going back of forth. Plus you already have a battery and charger. Ryobi ONE+ 18G AirStrike Nailer is what it is called in England, not sure if it has the same Name in the USA, i don't own one but the reviews all look positive.

Super cool , awesome job👍

2 minutes to tear down a pallet> Sawsall the nails after a tiny pry of the boards then slice down thru the nails.

Cool build !!!

Looks great!

You’re absolutely amazing.

Great use of left behind "junk"!

I enjoy watching you do projects; look forward to each post. BTW, hope your health has been okay this winter. Are you still on a caveman // protein type of diet........ ? Take care of yourself, from a former Upstate New Yorker.......

see i would siding ad put on outside walls then use spray foam t plug all the gapes

Well weirdly, it appears I am the only one freaked tf out about those damn dangly strings on his mittens!! Oh my God I thought for sure they were going to be sucked into that flipping saw!! But apparently he lived!! Im glad. I dig the shed! I'm building a deck for KILLY, my RV. The pallets were given to me and a neighbor down the way is redoing a deck and stairs so I got a metric fuck ton of great wood to go over the pallets!! Im stoked!! Good to meet you all. Peace & chicken grease ✌🤙

Great

maybe there is a bunker under those stones!!!

trees died to make the pallets so its ok lol

Will you treat the pallets and spray them down with something

How many acres is it? To have so many baskets, are they over lapping? It will be cool when its done.

Are you treating the wood with waterproofing?

Shit bro that shed looks awesome...

Will the trees shrink and twist when they dry out? I only ask as this is an option I have but wary about using green fresh cut trees.

I think your going to have a hard time saving that plastic after fasting it on with staples. Maybe firing strips screwed on would have been a better choice however it looks pretty good

They are revamping disk golf?

1. What about a foundation? what if it pores down hard and that building floods? 2. Read The China Study 3. Make sure the insulation you put in is GREEN, because it can cause illness if it is not. I would go with wool batting. I'm thinking about doing something similar up north and living in a garage/barn. Have to find a water source first. Did you have a well put in?

The rock may have been for logging if any was done in there. Might have been a hole there

Where in New York?

How about Tyvek house wrap to weatherproof

Am I the only one who was beginning to worry about you?

Was the land you bought expensive In New York ?

Show me a picture of that poison oak, I may be able to identify it if you're not sure what it is. By the way the shed looks great.
