How To Build Stone Foundation for Log Cabin by Hand | 5.0 |One Man Traditional Log Cabin full series 

Thank you so much for your kind words Sue!! It really means the world to me that my work is so appreciated. This motivation also really makes the time documenting and editing the videos forth it! Thanks! Never thought I would have a dedicated fan when I started this. Future videos will start to get really interesting when the wood working with the axes start.

@@ErikGrankvist Hello .. in which country do you live?

@@salmsalm-mj6ff Sweden.

@@ErikGrankvist Thank you, you're awesome?

I know I am kind of off topic but does anybody know a good site to watch new tv shows online ?

Your comment is so gratifying. I am ecstatic for all these lovely comments!

Thank you.

It is good for show and demonstration but if you watch the stakes are moving and leaning. There was no way that was accurate.

@@philipshane768 Obviously the measuring was a rough-in only, and only needed to be accurate to within a few inches for the purpose of digging the footer locations. The fine-tuning was with the string/nails as every mason knows how to do... it's just a shame that process was largely edited out of the video (along with the leveling process)

@@Andurian yes HOW did he plumb the foundation? Maybe Erik will share. thanks

Thanks for the tip. I am always looking to improve, that is why I am building this cabin. I am 19 but I was 18 at the time of this video 👍

Thank you very much, yes I want to share as much as possible. Tack

Thanks Rowan. Yesterday I actually achieved to put the first log up for the walls! This first log I had to split by hand, which was a pretty awesome feeling. This will be shown in the next video, so don't miss it ;)

Thanks for your lovely comment Jean! (as always:)!

Your appreciation for my work is so satisfying! Thank you

@@ErikGrankvist - I have only very recently discovered your channel, I love what you are doing, I am actually studying for my own knowledge as I plan to do this very soon - I do have a question though (perhaps it will be answered in further videos), but when you finished the corner piles, and started to do the rock walls between the corner piles, were you not planning to use some for of binding agent like cement to firm up those connector walls, from what I saw you were just sort of lining the walls up with rock and stone, and lining the cracks with just gravel, is that all that is needed, or is there going to be more binding agents like concrete? Just curious, if that was part of the plan, to firm it up or were you just going to leave it with only the stones and gravel. My main curiosity is in that I wonder how stable long term this loose rock and gravel setup would be without cement to hold it all together, I wouldn't want to try this method if it's not long term stable :) Either way I love watching you work, it is fueling my education on my upcoming project.

Glad you liked it!

I really appreciate your comment. Thank you.

Tackar. :)

Thank you Jeff

:) yes that's true. Thank you!

Tack, härligt att höra. Det är så här jag vill leva, fullt möjligt om man verkligen vill. 👍 Allt går med vilja och tid.

@@ErikGrankvist but without cell phone? how do we get the videos then ;)-

Thank you. :)

Thanks... Hahaha lol. Haven't noticed.

Haha, thank you for the appreciation of my work.

Thank you

Thank you my friends you are very nice friends Erik 👉❤❤

Tack

Thank you, Sweden.

Thanks. I am going to use much smaller (lighter) logs higher up in the build. Hopefully I can lean two logs on the building at an incline and roll the logs up using rope. But we shall see what happens, maybe I need some friends help.

Tack

Haha thank you. I did not know about these cordwood cabins, looks cool. 👍

Her name is Alice. 👍

Thank you very much for your comment. I have not heard about these "man holes", interesting. The holes between the slots is enough ventilation. Tack

Precisely my same questions also! Thanks. I am wondering how he plumbed his foundation.

The dog's name is Alice. She likes to tag along with me into the woods and help me some times.

What kinda dog is she ?
