OFF GRID SHIPPING CONTAINER CABIN | Floor Plan Tour 

I want to make a comment .....Mckenzie, you may not be able to do the work of your husband but let's all remember what he is doing this for. YOU! If it wasn't for you we would have never got to know your husband, the kids that you had, the pets, and all the great times you made us laugh. This is all because you exist. Never under estimate how important you are. I think I can speak for the majority of the people here. We love you and your family and are very blessed to know you. Thank you for being a part of our life!

People who call you a spectator Kenz have obviously not watched back when you were building the house. I remember the hard work you did including holding up sheets of drywall while putting up the ceiling. You also managed to have 2 children, being a wife and mother is the most important job in the world. People have no idea how much work it takes to film and edit these videos for our enjoyment. I know other tubers who respect your abilities and endeavour to produce the same standard. Love you guys, cabin is coming along nicely 👍

You should move the container now to its final destination before you do walls, or they will probably crack with the motion the container will experience during relocation.

Kenzie you are so much more than a cheerleader. You are a beautiful person raising beautiful people. Your family life is a work of art.

I have watched from the beginning and I can’t believe how much the kids have grown. You have done something I wish we had done this with our property in building from a container to a home great work.

Suggestion: unless you are installing wall boards, might be a good idea to move before installing drywall which tends to crack when moving.

It's really refreshing to see a wife and kids that actually love their dad and wife that actually loves her husband. So refreshing🎉.

Happy Birthday Spencer. The cabin is turning out great and Beau looks so pretty in her Princess outfit.

Anyone else hoping they do a camp out as a family in their cabin as soon as it’s done and films it so we can all enjoy the finished product with them 💕

So is where on your property you're moving the cabin to, a secret? Are you thinking of using the cabin as more than your space or visiting family space? Like an vacational rental space? Love watching your videos. A sweet family. Happy Birthday 🎈🎉🥳🎁🎂🍰🎶🎵

I swear out of all the millions of channels on RU-vid, This is hands down the best one. Love it, Keep doing what you're doing.

Awesome mom, wife, keeper of the home, cheerleader. I honestly don't know why any woman would take offense to that. That was my mother. She was proud of it. Why is that disparaging. Why is that something to be ashamed of.

Remember, sweetie, behind every good man is an exceptional good woman. Don't worry what others say you are the glue to your family, and the 2 of you seem to be great together. I wish the 2 of you the best the world and the Heavenly father has to give you. Yall are a beautiful family

To be called a fantastic mother, wife , housekeeper and cook is the very highest praise! How can you think otherwise? To constantly cheer your husband on, whenever you cannot physically help is just another GREAT quality. You are a wonderful couple and you both play very important parts in your life together.... you compliment one another. P.S You are also a fantastic film maker, editor and photographer :)

Awww Beau, she’s a doll!!

I'm wondering if you guys considered running the wood stove pipe through the wall? It keeps the clean out on the outside so it's less messy and you don't have to cut a hole in a perfectly good roof.

Beau’s smile is just like her daddy’s, so darling! Love this family, what a wonderful life 🎊 🎉

As much as I enjoyed the whole video, Beau saying the butterfly is beautiful touched my heart 💝🥰 Those babies are growing way to fast! 😢

We installed a 12v Furrion tankless water heater in our RV and LOVE IT!! I know it’s tempting when you have it to use more water than you should off grid, but then you don’t have to use power/gas to keep the water hot all the time you’re not using it.

Beau sure has moms beautiful hair and dads smile !!

What a family, they are all perfect. Your daughter takes after her mother, lovely smile, her humour and she has lovely hair, just like her mother. Spencer is such a loving, caring person and wants what is best for the family. I wouldn't say cheerleader, I would say model. Love from Mike. ❤

The wood burner will force you to keep windows open. Much too big for the space. We have the smallest that Buck Stove makes and when we use it in a 1280 sq ft space the temp goes up to over 80 and we have to open windows to get the temp to 74. It's wonderful to have it and it's a blessing in the winter when the outside temp is single digits when the electricity goes out. We live in northwestern, NC. You folks are a blast keep up the excellent work, Your place is loverly

Greatest family and smartest couple ever they have impressed me since the beginning over 5 years ago with first home the day they arrived with there loaded car on their a Texas property ❤❤❤

Loved your sweet daughter looking over daddy’s shoulder , it remind of our girls with heir daddy….even now in their 40’s they love being with their daddy. It makes my heart full of joy.

Hello 🤗 going to be a nice cabin- like washer/dryer combo in kitchen . Love the humor & banter between you both ❤ Beau & Cam are so cute 🥰 thanks for sharing & have a great week 🙏🇺🇲💖

I can't believe how big the kids have gotten seems like yesterday that I found your channel before kids and the beginning of your journey. Congrats and thank you for sharing.

Maybe you should think about putting the Stove Pipe out the side of the Container instead of out the Roof, a lot less chance of leaks from the Rain! Just a thought!

One doesn't realize he intricacies of such a build, just NEAT!! Y'all crack me up!!

Happy Birthday, Spencer. The kids sure love daddy and mommy. Both of you have a wonderful family.

The kids are too cute. Dads little helpers are awesome. Love your videos.

Being an awesome mother, wife, and a great cook is NOTHING to be ashamed of or feel slighted over. 😊

Feels like I just blinked my eyes and your babies have grown so much. I have a 4 month old son. Make every moment count!

The kids have gotten so big and they are so adorable!!

Does anyone realize, you've gained experience if you are tempted to do a container build? This is incredibly valuable and you get this family showing you the good and bad. 🙋🎂

I look forward to seeing the RV-style utilities get installed. Low power and nice engineering really adds a punch to the living experience.

Cant believe how big the kids are getting. Just dawned on me Ive been watching your channel before they were born and still love watching you guys

If you want to have the stove close to the wall here is some info that may help - A combustible floor must be protected by a non-combustible material (like tile, concrete board, or certified to UL-1618 or as defined by local codes) extending beneath the heater and a minimum of 6" from each side and minimum 16" from the front face of the stove and minimum 6" (or the rear clearance to combustibles whichever is smaller) from the rear of the stove.

Happy belated birthday Spencer!❤ also, McKenzie your editing and cinematography is something else! ❤

You guys are the cutes couple on RU-vid. Your laughter is very contagious when you guys tease each other. What a beautiful family. We love the 30 + minutes videos 🥰🥰🥰

I certainly have enjoyed your videos from when you guys first started!! Love from Georgia, USA 🇺🇸 ❤

Seeing the electric lawnmower brings back a lot of memories. I cut grass with one for close to twenty years we were the only family that used one in our neighborhood so the kids would make my life hell on those day’s making jokes. But it never broke down and as a family of all women my grandmother went for something easy and light weight. Love the plans you have for the new build it is looking amazing. Love the windows and have always wanted one like the kitchen window. I bet you could put a 3 rd bunk bed in that room if you wanted to. Looking forward to the rest of the build. Susan

I love when the kids get in on the videos, it’s cute to me

Being told that you are a great mother, wife, cook and housekeeper is high praise for hard jobs.

Loved following your journey across the country living in the little trailer while you built. The Texas home it was very smart of you two to let RU-vid pay for it all. By making engaging videos which is all you guys I mean people can’t not root for the two of you

Thank you for letting us be part of your journey. ❤ You both will be able to write a book when you are done! You have gained so much knowledge. I love what another person said about some cute tiles behind the fire! I know it will be so chic when you are done! You are brave to live where there are venomous snakes! I absolutely HATE snakes and can not live anywhere where there are snakes. Y'all be safe.

Speaking of where did she get that from? Your daughter sounded just like you when she ran behind Spencer and stopped in front of the wood stove and laughed. That was definitely a Kenzie laugh. Please go watch it!

If only every child in America could grow up like your children are getting too……you/they are so blessed. I love following your journey.

Being a awesome cook is enought . In the bedroom and kitchen

Your little cabin is going to be very nice, super nice build. Take care guys!! 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

I look forward to your videos every week!!! The stove is great. A smaller version of what I grew up with 👍❤. Beau 💗 and Cam 💙 are AWESOME!!! Love how Beau always tells Daddy to be safe and careful ❤. Could you please do an overhead Drone Shot because I just can't get perspective of where your Cabin is placed and Your new Tractor Shelter. I'm So Direction Limited 😂!!! Great Job 👍 Kenna and Spencer 💕. You Two Make A Great Team 💕🙌!!! Western Upstate New York here 💐

"A real sparkle camera"? 😂😂😂 this was too funny. Just found your channel and love this build. Great exterior color; calming. I'm a fulltime welder and shall say those are some great cuts of plate he did...lots of pride in his work 🔥🍻

You could or could've vented it out the sidewall too. I love Bo, she is so cute!!

I am so grateful that the 2 of you were brave enough to take this leap while sharing it with the world! I look forward to each new episode every week. I’ve gutted, rehabbed, renovated and done new builds on a couple of homes and several housing projects. I could go on and on with how skilled you’ve both become and how dedicated, determined, and sweet you both are. Your educating is entertaining and engaging. Yet I want to compliment you the most on your editing skills!Your style has matured and is beautiful to view! You’re the modern day Waltons. Every episode is wholesome and leaves you wanting to live a good life! Thank you for sharing your life with us 🙏🏻

In addition to all of the love that you give your children, the other very important thing that you are providing them is the lesson of self-reliance and how you can accomplish anything that you set your mind to. And that though there will be disappointments, challenges and setbacks, as long as you stick with it you will overcome. That, along with the love that you give them, will be the greatest gift that you can bestow on to them. And I always love watching your playful banter with each other.

Seems like a very nice traditional American Family. I tip my hat to your sense of adventure, your courage and your willingness to work to achieve your goals !

You guys are so darn cute together. I love watching your playfulness.

You guys are so cool, In parts of Australia you cannot do what you do. One would think your use of material such as this would be embraced with open arms. Good on you. We love what you are doing

Aww , your son big now , I remember when you were pregnant with him , beautiful family , we enjoy the videos ,

What a lovely family!!! 🥰🎶❤️🌻🦋

Love watching y’all’s little family. Thanks for a nice long video this time…made my day!

You have two gorgeous kids!!I gave been following you eversince and I afore your family and have seen your family grow! Wow, i love to see how your kids are growing up and you are training them to blend with nature and pretty much they are adjusting and enjoying your lives off the grid!! They are very well adjusted in the life you have for them.

Looking good so far, I love it but ❤👍🏽 I would paint that door gray frfr

You have the most beautiful children and are such loving parents. I really enjoy watching you

Hi Spencer I can’t believe she pulled the wife card on you. 😂😂😂 in the living space area you can put a twin Murphy bed transforms in to a couch. You can get it on line by looking up transforming furniture. This furniture was made for the tiny apartments in the big city’s .

You are an example of a great family, loyal, trustworthy, and loving to your family

I don’t know if you get tarantulas up that far north, but you must! My friend from MT was just in North Tx and found one traveling in the grass! What a great educational opportunity it would be for your kids! They are very docile!

Hello guys! I have watched every episode of your journey over the years and I must say, I truly enjoy watching your videos! I look forward every week and can't wait to see the next one! I applaud every effort you make! The snakes would have me blow torching my entire yard!!!! I am not a fan of snakes. Being a homeowner I know what you guys are going through! I've built 4 homes over the past 20 years as the primary contractor/owner. I hired out all required work though because I was in the US Reserves and just couldn't do all the required work. Thank you so much for sharing this journey of your life with me. Keep up the good work! I absolutely love it! Sincerely, dj

I want to add…. astounding editing!!! Great video!!❤

Your ending shot of Bo and daddy is so precious - that shot should be made into a picture to frame and hang in your home. P.S. Get some of those heavy duty sliders to temporarily put under the legs of the stove - you'll be able to push/move it with 1 hand!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPENCER!!! God Bless You and your beautiful family! Great job

This couple has inspried me to do the same thing but a little bigger, I am in the middle of saving so I can get my property and all the containers that I will need. I have seen almost every video 2 times and learned from watching this channel. I plan on doing off grid home in Arizona with solar and wind (the place I plan on building is not too hot in northern Arizona) but the winds to pick up at night so figured Why not take advantage of the wind as well) My design will take 4 containers and some open areas that are connecting the contaniers to the shipping containers in a square formation and a small area in the square for outdoors area, since wild animals are a thing where I will be building I can have pets outside when then want to and not worry about them getting away or attacked my large cats or coyotes. I will be coming back again and again to watch and love seeing in my suggestions the new videos. I know that you prob don't get to read every comment. But, thanks for sharing and the kids are getting so big. Good job you guys.

It is so amazing how beautiful the pond looks now that the aerator has been running steady!

Happy Birthday, Spencer! That little princess of yours was so sweet leaning onto you at the end❣️

I think viewers who have been with you for a while appreciate all that Kenzie does. Without her, we wouldn't be able to be a part of your lives.

Your daughter looks just like her mom. Precious and funny.

Kenzie...cheerleader is just one of many ways you contribute...Spencer is a very lucky man. You have a wonderful family. Beau and Cam are growing up so fast. ☺️

I love the Shipping container idea for a cabin! If it could only be like 2 feet wider I think they would be absolutely perfect in size. But you guys are amazing, your videos are amazing and I love the journey you guys have been on for the past 3-4 years!

I’m glad I waited to comment. I really thought you were installing that stove. I’ve watched every episode since you began… love it..

Been with you fro. The day you started settling the footers. Y,all have become the all AMERICAN family , "TEXAS style" ❤ you guys are great....

I would like to see the next build! Maybe McKenzie gets her own (get away time) she Shed? Or maybe a hot tub, and a sauna?

You might want to install gutter tops . Cabin will look great! Great idea for a screened in porch.

I love the way you love each other, especially your kids.

Happy Birthday, Spencer. You do know that by the time you get the door, you all could have built one yourselves. 😉Thank you for sharing.

Great job guys 🌏🤠🦎🦘🐨🙏🌹🧡like always 🙃🌹children are so adorable Bo just wants to be in there helping daddy 💕so beautiful to see xxxxx

You guys have done so much and come so far. I'm so proud of you and your family.

Very nice video. Always nice to see you and how well you realize your ideas. Laugh, your stove for the container, already suitable for a sauna in Alaska. If it is cold / cool, you need warm water. Spencer can install a heat exchanger in the flue gas pipe, material 310 with baypass and shut off valves. With this you can heat in winter and have hot water. Two tanks, one small, one larger. With two 12 volt motors, everything is regulated. Little weight and lower costs. Spencer understands what I mean. For the heat exchanger, an expansion in the flue gas pipe, with cleaning hole. The heat exchanger, with 1/2", or 3/4" tubes build, can Spencer himself, or ask me, sure I help. Greetings from Frankfurt

Great lawn mowing timelapse, very satisfying

Happy birthday 🎂 Spencer. Bo is so funny ! Lawn look good again .😊

Wow this smaller cabin is really turning out to be something cool and unique !!!

Loved these glimpses into your beautiful children...

I love your videos. Basically the only RU-vid I still watch after all these years. Still just as good as it was if not better. Happy you guys get to buy your dream land and are taking us along for the ride. Blessings

Love watching y’all create and build cool stuff and y’all’s family!

So great to watch your family!! Thank you for sharing!

Wonderful video, thanks. It brought back 50 year old warm memories of my family .

Hi, and another great Video, the kids are certainly growing fast. Love you are all so natural with each other and in your videos such a delight to watch 🙏🏻🙋🏻‍♀️🇦🇺

Happy birthday Spencer !!!!

Have you considered putting the chimney out the side instead of the roof

Give the gal a swing ! All women will be happy with a swing …. Love the build ! Have to laugh at the wood stove for the cold days in Texas :) …. Western Canada here !

your cinematography keeps getting better and better! Well done!

Speaking as a former Chimney Sweep who has installed plenty of wood stoves. You are correct about the stove being overkill. Actually, even on the lowest setting, the entire cabin may be unbearably hot. A stove tailored toward an RV may be a better option. Great Videos. I look forward to them each and every week.
