Roof and Windows (I'm Still Alive) / OFF Grid CABIN Building (S4 Ep6) 

Hi everyone, thank you so much for all the nice comments, I didn't expect such a great response after not making a video for so long. Also I would like to say that there's someone in the comments pretending to be me and telling people about a giveaway. Don't click on anything, because it's a fake account, I've never done a giveaway.

You don't have to apologise,your family and your life are THE priority. Very good job!!

Hi Nik, we love your videos, here in the USA. I have watched them all. I have thought about you many times on whether you and your family were alright. Happy to hear from you and see what you have done on your log home. Cheers Nik! 👍👏

I've missed you. Please don't stay away so long again😢❤️🙏

I remember when you were hauling those logs out of the forest, and then stuck up that jig - and I thought WTF? My whole "log cabin" journey started with Richard Proenneke. Good job mate.

I have to admit I’m one of those concerned viewers that thought you might’ve had an accident while building, I’m elated to know you’re ok and your family is fine. I love the progress you’ve made. Cheers mate.

Glad you and your family are well. Happy to see the progress is continuing!

The fact of the matter NIk, is that I watch your channel (this one) for the very interesting content of the video. In my opinion, you don't need to change your method of presentation at all. Your work speaks for itself and really has enough voice over that you don't need that much more conversation. Most of the viewers, I would say, became fascinated with the way your work was presented to us, the youtube public. This method is working for you and you really shouldn't change just because there are some that may differ in opinion. Let them get there own channel and produce it the way they want. As for me, I am glad that you are back and, look forward to more of your videos that are presented as you envisioned them. Peace be with you.

Electricity is back, Nik is back

Welcome back, We have been waiting for your next video. Great job.

Amazing work! Don't be sorry for this video taking so long, you don't own anyone anything besides yourself. Love the progress, wish you all the best.

Glad to see you back. I really am enjoying watching your progress.

I would follow another channel of yours for sure. Glad to see you back. I look forward to seeing where you put the solar panels. Cheers from Canada.

Ник вернулся, 5 месяцев не было видео, я уже запереживал. Ник у тебя хорошая семья, хорошие друзья, хорошее увлечение. Удачи друг из Словении.

It’s natural to see people concerned when you are doing construction where one misplaced step or a kickback of the saw could affect you for several months. People get a connection with you and your family and just want to see that you are safe and happy. You might just do a 2 minute short video occasionally and put a regular video out in the summer when you have the time. All the best Nick.

Nick, you've been gone so long! Everyone missed you! Don't disappear for so long anymore. Health to you and your family!!!

Your content is always worth the wait I have other RU-vidrs that put out weekly or daily and honestly sometimes I forget about you but I'm always excited when I get a notice that you have a video up and can't wait to watch it. Keep up the good work

Missed your lovely videos. Please don't disappear again.

Какой же всё таки добротный дом, при должной эксплуатации он простоит сотни лет

Welcome back to RU-vid Nik. I’m glad you got the room closed in before winter. I’ve missed seeing you and your family and friends working on your projects. This is a great adventure! 😊 Thanks for sharing it with us.

Brilliant to have you back Nik, I have been enthralled with your entire build...very happy to hear that you and your family are all well and safe.

I am very happy that you are back, and as someone who has watched this amazing project since its inception and am familiar with your seasonal breaks in content I had assumed that this was the reason for the break. Still, any reason a content creator needs to take a break is perfectly reasonable and expected. If anyone who tells you otherwise is unreasonable. You do amazing work, and it is worth the wait.

we are here for you brother.. no worries.. you have a real life to .. but also you have big family of youtube ...thnx for new upload ..take care Nik.....

Good to have you back. Love the green sweater, Rest in peace apetor 🙏🏻

I been waiting so long to see the development of Ur log cabin house...am so happy that u are back cos I really admire Ur artistry...especially Ur unique stairs...u make my day today...hope to see more of Ur upcoming videos...am Ur avid subscriber from philippines!Mabuhay Ka Nik!!.....

Good to see you back! I appreciate your concern about the viewers; after a while --you and your family becomes our family and i/we miss you and want to make sure you are all OK. thank you for sharing your thoughts, skill, and part of your life.--Wishing you and your family joy in all that you do, even when the going gets tough--we overcome hardships it builds character. Thank you for taking us along on this part of your "Life".

Dear Nik, I´m so happy to see you again working on your cabin and knowing, nothing bad happened to you and your family. You did a really good job all the years and hopefully you succeed in anything you plan to do the next time. Please don`t let your followers wait another half year - we all are hungry to see the development of your home. Best wishes from northern Germany to you and your family.

Good to see you are back on it!

Welcome back ! I missed you and I made problems for you! I'm glad that everything is fine and you're still watching your videos! I also built a house absolutely alone and I know how to appreciate what you do. With you, I saw that other people besides your family helped you a little, but me, apart from my wife and very little my father, I did absolutely alone the whole house! 😃I wish you maximum health and all the best with your loved ones!👍

Wow, you have come very far! I remember living off grid for years with no hot water. We did electricity and I took an old coffee machine and converted it into a hot tub LOL. I bought a plastic bathtub, drilled a whole for the heating element of the coffee pot and installed it. Took about 30 minutes, the water was nice and warm, turned it off, unplugged it and hopped in LOL.

Hey you welcome back can’t wait to see what you’ve gotten done

I'm always happy to get a notification of another video upload whether its 5 or 6 months. Great work as usual Nik.

Life is an experience. You seem to be enjoying your experiences. We appreciate you sharing them.

Hello Nik. It is good to see you back. I do not keep up with folks. For those that I subscribe to, the videos show up and I watch them. It was good to hear the end that things are a bit more comfortable. Your children will not remain forever young. They need your attention. We, your subscribers, will be here when you post a video. If you do start another channel, I will take a look. Have good days!

It is good to see you back, Nik. Life happens, needs shift and priorities change, and you take care of what needs to be done to take care of your family and to provide for all of you. May you be well, happy, and at peace.

Klasse Nik, Du bist endlich wieder da. Ich hatte Sorge, dass Dir/Euch was zugestoßen ist. Danke Dir für die tollen Einblicke.

I am so glad that you are still alive and back on RU-vid. I love your craftsmanship. Great job. Keep up the good work. Also your family is fantastic. They are following in your footsteps. I appreciate children being taught correctly. This is an opinion of an old lady. They will make you proud.

Happy to see your back. No apologize needed. Enjoy watching the build from Canada. 👍👍👍

I was worried about you, I'm glad you are doing well, it's great to see you are back and looking forward to seeing your fabulous progress.

lllevo 32 años trabajando en la construccion en ESPAÑA, y la verdad es que se echa mucho de menos tus videos, por que son sin duda lo mejor de youtube, da gusto verte trabajar con la madera, es gratificante entre tantos videos mediocres sobre construccion en youtube, ver a alguien trabajar con la profesionalidad con que tu lo haces, te doy la enhorabuena,(perdona que no te escriba en ingles, pero a los españoles los idiomas no son lo nuestro, pero recuerdo que hablabas italiano con tu muier por lo que no creo que te sea dificil entenderme.)

Nik is back ... let's celebrate!!! Never again Nik… so long!!! Thank you !!! and you are always top

It's great having you back. 🙂👍🇮🇪

Welcome back, Nik! Your episode today came at just the right time---you brightened my morning even better than a good cup of coffee. Glad all is well with you and the family and the cabin is looking great and, from your comments, must have been your home during the winter and it kept you all safe and sound.

Welcome back Nik. So glad that you're working on your cabin again and uploaded a new video.

Hurrey!!!!! Good to see you Nic!!!

Hi Nik, glad to hear you and your family are well. I'm not sure why, but I take great comfort and joy from watching your videos, and you're often in my thoughts when I'm working on my own projects at home. There was one year when you dropped a new video on either Christmas day or New Year's day ( I forget which), and it felt like such a present. Now, every Christmas time, I get hopeful that a new video will appear from you. The long wait between uploads just makes your videos more special when they arrive. Thank you, and keep up the good work. Nick from Kent, UK.

Glad to see you back and I for one amongst many have truly missed seeing your castle, you and your family. I’m sure glad all is ok. I don’t understand RU-vid’s obsession with making all video creators open up a second channel is it that it’s costing them so much, so they make you start again you must be the 15th creator that’s been forced to make another channel that I watch and a few of them already have a second channel running along side of the one I watch. Tbh I don’t generally watch the second channel as I struggle to fit in all the channels I already watch but do whatever feels right to you and I might watch your second channel when this one goes off for a while haha. Nice to see the work continuing and you managed to get it dried in before the rains came. I look forward to seeing the inside work done .

Now that is building a plan for the family future. You are a role model. The video shows that you are people with your own capacity. 🇪🇸 A cordial greeting from Spain!!

I was thinking about you yesterday, glad your all ok and thanks for posting this.

its always a nice surprise to see the build progress.

Cheers, Nik, nice to see you again. Appreciated. Say Hi to your family and friends for me, from NZ.

Bentornato NiK.... a me piaciono molto i video dove parli poco e ci rendi partecipi del tuo lavoro che è sempre molto interessante!! Complimenti!!

Nik, the window casings are absolutely beautiful. I love the natural wood look. Can’t wait to see what you and your family have done to the place. Best wishes from Virginia, U.S.A.

Nice to see you back Nic, you’re one of my favorite RU-vidrs. You’re skill and craftsmanship is amazing, thanks for getting back to sharing your story, you have been missed for sure!

Been waiting 6 months for this video. Glad to see all is well 🙏

Welcome back. I think it's normal for your followers to worry when you "disappear" for such a long time, it shows that they care about you and like what you're doing, how you work, and I think everyone is looking forward to the finished product. Keep up the good work.

We're all glad you and your family are doing well! We've missed you and the content. Looking forward to more videos in the future. Take care, and stay safe!

Best news ever to know you're among us once again 😀... missed you and your thorough videos !

It's nice to be able to see you & your family again, thank you all.

Missed you, we thought the Vires might cause some delay. So glad all is well, WELCOME BACK.

And he is back 🎉 Always a pleasure! I‘m looking forward to seeing how your journey continues! And I would definetly watch this hypothetical new channel 😉

So pleased to see you back.. glad you and the family survived the winter! Sounds rough but .. glad you are back! I’m sure I speak for many of your fans… saw that a new video was out and just yelled out ….yeah!

My wife and I love this 'show' and glad you are back and all is well.

I know how much effort is put on video editing. I personally really don't mind watching unedited videos. I just love to watch you working and eventually get something done in the end. Been watching since your first video. Much respec from the Philippines.

Sejam bem vindos de volta, vocês fazem muita falta, já nos acostumamos com seus vídeos. Adoremos ver seu lindo trabalho🎉

Glad to see that you’re still working on that beautiful house for your nice family during the winter even without making video’s, and I look forward to see a lot more this year, I’d very much enjoy every video you made so far, great job and great succes, greetings from out of the Netherlands.

Glad to hear you are still with us. Missed your videos. Thank you!🇺🇸💪

Bro I'm happy that you're still alive 😃 But you've to stop disappearing man, RU-vid just feels empty without your videos. I love your work champ. I hope the best for you and you family and also that you keep steady uploads.

Great to see You back again Nik and also to know that You and Your family are well.

I am very glad to see you're back! What a beautiful home you have!

Also am glad you and your family are ok. I watch your channel because of the quality you put out. It is not a lot of garbage videos to put out to fill the web with useless junk. You teach with your videos that is what i like. Keep up with what you do Nik and welcome back! Yours, Me southern AZ.

Hi Nik, Excellent channel you have, which with all the subscribers have that's over a half a million People wondering what happened to you. I'm so glad you and your family are ok!! What an inconvenient winter for you. I am very glad you are back. I have a youtuber buddy in Canada who does what you're talking about. Shawn James and My Self Reliance. God bless and take care you and your family from California.

Eu estava com saudades dos seus vídeos! Obrigada por postar! Abraços de São Paulo - Brasil.🌻

I dont think it matters how long it takes to upload your videos theyre amazing and worth waiting for, glad youre ok aswell x

Glad to have you share with us all again.👌

Don’t rush an artist. The only thing I have to do is relax and wait to watch you create another piece of art. 💪🇺🇸

Well done, Nick! Great to see your hard work bringing it all together. Your partner has become quite a good carpenter as well.

Glad to see you again and everyone is doing well!

It's great to see you back Nic, glad to know you and your family are doing well. I enjoy your work no matter how long between post. 😊. God's warrior angels watching over you and your family.

Good morning Nik. Great to see your update. Onwards.

I love to see your friends helping and I'm sure you help them. It looks awesome

Jeg har ventet på videoen din, det er godt å se at du er tilbake her, og du er sunn og rask. Hilsen Den7vendefarivedhaugen, i Halden, Norge!

Thank you, Nic every video is a gift we enjoy so much🎉

i really like the way nik eyeballs everything and he gets it right all the time

Nice to see all is well! the cat has grown also ^_^

Great to see you again. While you two were standing on the roof, I thought that it was a great view from up there, and if you try to turn that into a large balcony? Considering the placement of the windows, it would be fairly level to the upper floor inside. Keep on your great work!

That sunrise was spectacular! Thank you. I am looking forward to seeing your work in the future. I love watching the progress over time. Sunset as well! Excellent.

No problem Nik, I'm a big fan in America and always enjoy your build vlogs. It's always good to enjoy a break.

Hey Nik thank you for the update and as always I really enjoy watching you work on your place. I am pretty use to the long interludes between uploads so I didn't think anything of it but, I am glad that you and your family are well. Life is a full time job let alone working on your place. hehe Take good care of yourself and your family Nik and all my best to you all always. Until the next update cheers! Pete Hollister, CA

Hey Nik yes we really do miss you and thanks for sharing! 👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯

Welcome back Nik. Good to see you. You don't need to start another chanel. That would be a waste of effort. Just mix it up on this chanel. I would be interested to see your solar power system. I have one on my home here in Spain that is working well. However, I think we get more sun here.

I'm so glad you and your family are well. You and especially your family with no electricity for that long truly shows what a strong character all of you have! I have so much respect for you!!!! You are truly one in billion!

Glad you're back and everyone is okay. Looking forward to future videos.

I'm glad another winter is almost behind us! I'll watch anything you post, it's all been beautiful! Enjoy your spring & much success!

So happy to see you back! Another channel? Bonus! No talking? More than okay!

Welcome back , Nik , Missed ya . 🐺
