Honestly dude, I've been planning on building a cabin in the back of my 20 acres homestead for the past couple years... you were one of my inspirations for how I was gonna do it. I appreciate your constant improvement and advancement. I've been here since the beginning, and I'll be here till the end. Keep it up bud! Much love from a NY homesteader! Plain & Simple Farm.
Kyle, if you pm me your po box/ address, I'll send you a jar of shine for free. Give us a shout out if you like it! Apple pie or regular clear! Keep up thr awesomeness!
Send me an email at kylescabinmn@gmail.com about that shine. I’m just sharing information and hoping people can learn from my mistakes. I keep everything honest. Thanks for the longtime support brother
@leighmonty13 islands are nice but in an intimate space I'd like to keep things as open as possible, it would drive me nuts having an immovable piece of furniture that is also highly useful.
Y’all are my fav couple.. I’m a ballet dancer, but I LOVE camping, bears, wolves, campfires, outdoors in general. You make it work for both situations! Totally incredible!💓💓💓
What a great job you have done Kyle! You are a very good carpenter! Love the open concept in your place! Much brighter also! Can’t wait to see the finished product! ❤
It looks great! Living in a construction zone is hard and frustrating. And construction in a living area is harder. Been there, done that. I feel for you. But the end is going to look so good!
Great job Kyle for the renovations. Its much brighter and more finished. It will look great when all is done. Until your next video, take care and be safe.(Judy NB)🌲🇨🇦
Classy Kyle, 100% improvement. It needed that “ face lift “ Btw. I used to do messy projects when I was alone. Love the flooring idea. Did the same with a loft floor made with shiplap. Great ideas when the $ are missing. Overall, Ciera should be happy with the outcome.
Kyle & Cierra happy to see you. The cabin is beautiful, nice and roomy. You’re always working hard on your projects. Your place will be there for a very long time.
You make everything look so easy! I bought 120 acres at the angle. I hike in a quarter mile. It’s amazing. People criticize me, but you use solar and catch all your water. I know we can make it beautiful. You talk about not being in debt and living peacefully. It’s boat or snow mobile access only. But it’s so beautiful. The bugs are thick but after we are there a bit and shoe them away they get less and less around where our home will be built. Thanks for your inspiration!
Looks great Kyle! The plywood looks good on the floor and the shiplap on the walls look good too! It’s definitely gonna lighten up the space! Lookin forward to seeing the finished space! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
This was a great idea. It is looking great thus far. It is going to be easier for y'alI to move around the inside of your cabin. like the idea of the tongue and groove on the ceiling as well. Cannot wait for the next update. Great job Kyle.
The cabin transformation looks awesome! The projected changes will be great as well. The plywood on the floors looks great, it'll be interesting to see the longevity of it. Love what ya'll are doing ❤
I never understood why you put that center wall in. Would be nice to have an island with stool access as a little separation from the kitchen to the living room. Great Job.
Put another post in under your wires. Build a narrow table in between the 2 post. Kitchen table. Better then nothing i gess. You got choices now. Chose wisely grasshopper lol
I like ''space'' too...When you first built it, i thought ''bet he takes that dividing wall down again one day''.... Looks so much better as one room again... Nice job :-)
I am a 58 yr old black lady and a teacher. I'm born in the island of Jamaica. But.. Been living in U.S from 9 yrs old! Kyle, kudos to you and all the folks that have or are choosing the LIFE they want outside of the scam and overworked stressful life we have been put in place by the hieracy in society. I'm over it! Living off grid, van or camper life is pretty much living as it was and exiting from the monthly bills or limiting them. Plus.. Living off the land and healthier peaceful living! I pray that I will get a cottage home to just live minimal and grow my veggies. Get more organic poultrys by a nearby farmer..etc.. The synthetic meat that's coming plus all the gmos in foods I may turn vegan!!
I think it looks really nice! Kyle you are such a hard worker!! I love all of your videos. The butterfly was absolutely gorgeous!! I love nature too! I can’t wait to see the next video. Many blessings to you and Ciera ♥️♥️
Great job, it's going to be beautiful when its done. Have you seen the kitchen islands made from tool boxes? It would be great for storage. Take care ❤
I just got to say you know that you can save them two by fours a lot better if you use a hacksaw through the nails on the ends of them instead of trying to pull that way you don’t break your wood up. You will have nails in the ends of the boards, but that won’t stop you from being able to use the whole board again I know from experience.😂❤❤
Wow it did brighten it up and I like the open rooms better too! You both are talented, and your cabin is very cozy, warm and welcoming. Looking forward to the final video.
Kyle…we need more young me like you. Todays kids don’t have mentors. You’d be a good one teaching young men how to do things. You do such a beautiful job. Your lady is lucky to have you.
Really brightens and opens up the room. Looks great. I would run a pair of 14-2 over to front door for the light switch for kitchen lights. Or maybe a 3-way switch over by stove. Thanks for sharing
Ezekiel 18:31-32 King James Version 31 Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? 32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord God: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye. Gods blessings over you .
Considering Alaska part time... So have you looked at the bigger picture? 1. Alaska is very expensive. I lived in Palmer. You'd be spread pretty thin. 2. What about Cierra and her dance activity? How does she feel about that? 3. And your chickens? You said you wanted more and other animals too. 4. You'd be leaving elderly parents and your families for long periods of time. 5. Don't forget to check out residency requirements for your health insurance and networks. You guys said you wanted to start a family. Something to think about. 6. You have a bunch left to do where you are at to fully develop the homestead.
Looks great Kyle,really lightens up the cabin. I really enjoy your videos,I’ve been following you for a few years. Looking forward to your next video. Thank you for sharing.
Kyle nice changes, looks great! You moved that sink just like a guy. Loved it. Why take all the stuff out. My wife would have taken everything out, washed it, put it away and then washed the sink before I could rip it out. 😃🤣👍👍
It' s not easy to do everything alone. Dont' take offense, please, but there's a guy with a channel who built a cabin with huge logs by himself, what he's accomplished alone is unbelievable. Almost all of without power tools. He has s system with pulleys & other things. Maybe if you watch it could help? Its " My Self Reliance". Best of blessings on your home, your hard work is a wonderful thing.
Nice lifestyle. I can't we to start living like you and be free like a bird. We have everything we wanted in our life now but are unhappy with working 60 hrs per wk and no time for each other.
Everyone who thinks or feels God doesn't care, is indifferent and or mean etc …. Why is the world as it is, evil everywhere… where is God and His faithfulness… God does judge sin which is evil and if people don't stop sinning they will die for that disobedience,that sin. When God said if you take from that tree you will die He was saying if you disobey, you sin, I will punish that sin because God does punish it, sickness, demons and death. And if you keep sinning I will punish you to the point of death, is that punishment. Sickness is a consequence of sin and it is a judgement God makes upon the people for their sin. All sickness takes its toll on the body and will result in death unless you stop sinning and that brings a reward from God for the righteous decision to stop sinning that brought that illness. Throughout scripture God tells us these things. God does love and there is mercy in His punishment too. He chastises those He loves. His wrath doesn't mean He doesn't love, it doesn't mean there is no mercy, it means He puts His law first and He obeys it first. He punished sin and then punishes sin and so forth and if someone doesn't stop sinning or sins more then that judgment is death just as He said, sin is death. Scripture says we are all responsible for working out our salvation with fear and trembling. Seek scripture, learn who He is and what He said to obey and do it. if you obey Him you live in blessings just like Deuteronomy 28 says and it also says disobedience is curses, that's sickness, demons possibly and again to continue in sin results in death. God told all the details, and paid for us to get out of sin and how we should live and when people don't live righteous then the world looks like it did in the days of Noah, violence, drunkenness and such lovers of self, pleasure and all sin and life apart from God, life in disobedience to God. Why should He bless sin? He punishes it then punishes sin more if someone keeps sinning. Is it tough people die from that choice they make, their sin and lack of seeking God to obey what He said, yes it hurts. How do you think God feels, He loved the world so much He gave His only begotten son and Yeshua died in agony for us to be out of that sin, taking God's wrath upon Himself so how do I think He feels, grieved so grieved but I know from scripture He always obeys what His word says, He never changes and that includes every word He said. Now Yeshua took God's wrath upon Himself for our sin Isaiah 53. We get peace with God and can come before Him to be heard and we get to be cleansed from our iniquities, sin. Just like the lamb sacrifices in the old testament Jesus was that for us a peace offering and forgiveness offering. We get freedom from that sinful past, from that sin and we get our healings because His stripes healed us from the consequences of sin. He gave us a way out. A way to start again out of that wrath. How loving is that God gave us His son who took God's wrath for us out of love. How loving just how loving is our God who made a way for us to be out of that wrath? Wrath we deserved by our sin and continued sin. But God so loved the world He gave us Yeshua. Yeshua gave His life to rise to life for us to give us new life. A new creation to begin again a new life, having been born again. Having received forgiveness for sin and a pardon from God's wrath, that very wrath you talk about. But God gave us a way out of His wrath when Yeshua our lamb paid for our sin. Again how loving is that our way out of God's wrath. Our new life. Our second chance to live rightly before our Holy righteous God our being born again to live right because God planned for us to not all receive His wrath yet His son for everyone, one for everyone and a way out, pardoned and free to live life righteous whole healed delivered, how loving oh so very loving that is. All that is in scripture too. Seek and find, learn who He is and obey and see more of it. Mark 4:24 the more you obey God the more He reveals to you, it means that. Matthew 6:33 live it daily and understand who He is and just how loving He always is and honestly how loved you are will be seen felt and KNOWN too. 💕 May you come to understand Him all your days seeking and finding and growing in the knowledge of God in Yeshua's name 💕 Praise the LORD God Almighty Hallelujah 🙏🙌
What size did you say this cabin is? I'm in a 20x16 storey n a half, with a half loft. You mentioned in another of your videos you hope to see a moose, in real time. I hope that happens for you. I really enjoy your videos, please keep them coming.
Awesome job buddy it look amazing I bet cierra is doing her touches too I wished my wife could help me but she can’t even walk 10 feet and my grandsons are too young and there in there gaming bull crap lol several of them go to the cabin with me but till I get this medical problem fixed I’ve been chemically poisoned it’s from work I’m very allergic to the black rubber belting at work we have a lot of it too I work at a sawmill I’m a millwright in Maint . So I’m at a crossroads in my career been there 20 years bud and I see it slipping away to my disability and I’ve got 5 years till I retire so here we go lol we do enjoy the videos of y’all’s life so I thought I’d share some of mine with you thanks again.
This up coming weekend. July 29th is blue berry fest in ely. I was there today. It was busy. I looked for ya but didnt see you. Alot of neet trinkits there. Most over priced.
I'm sure you are watching all over RU-vid for others who live in off grid cabins like yours...finally remembered another RU-vidr that has very similar objectives that you have...thought I'd mention that site on the off chance you hadn't seen it. My Self Reliance is the other site you might check out if you have not already done so. Thanks for all of your content. Really enjoy it.
You confuse me sometimes lol. I've watched you put in the floor, put in the wall, tear down the wall, tear up the floor, put down a new floor out of plywood of all things...and it hasn't even been that long in between each thing. Like... why put in so much effort for something just to reverse it a short time later. So much effort
Pretty hazy up there because of the Canadian fires? I'll be driving by en route to Kenora and Whiteshell Providencial Park. I'm going to look at West Hawk Lake. It's not a large body of water by Lawrencian Shield standards, but it is 377 ft deep and is Manitoba's deepest lake. I'll be looking at the petroforms too, within the park. In August I'll be heading into the BWCA, at the end of the Gunflint Trail. I love the North.
Big project, but it’s coming along nicely! The inside of the Cabin looks so different all opened up! Going to be great being able to use that living space.
Nice and bright. I'm surprised you didn't make that a half wall in the first place, allowing the light in aa well as a place to have a counter workspace and cabinets. You are so skillful, Kyle. Great work.
I've been binge watching your videos. I admit I didn't care for that wall from the start. It worked for the kitchen, but made the living room look claustrophobic. You all had a lot of stuff hanging on that wall on the kitchen side that you'll have to find a place for. I would suggest a half wall between the support post to push the island and butcher block tables up against and open hanging shelves from the beam. You don't lose the storage space and still have an open concept.
You do what you want but I thought the idea of having the wall so you have more wall space for the kitchen? I would have considered a half wall so you still have the wall space for the kitchen yet sill open for the livingroom.
