Nothing you guys ever post is boring. I look forward to whatever the project is and how it's done. Thanks.

@jackieanderson6599 Месяц назад

Totally agreed❤

@donnavickery9623 Месяц назад

Greg putting in posts to strengthen the roof is a excellent idea .

You guys really do make a good team one of these days we gotta do a bloopers reel

@lucyl2770 Месяц назад

Power Shed really turned out great and I really like the post at each corner. Y’all never have a boring video or content - you two could stand outside in the rain or wind and it’d still be an interesting video! Greg’s gymnastics is always a plus!

@billroberts3864 Месяц назад

Katie, you hit another home run with your video intro. I imagine you two are glad the power shed is completed so you can move on to your next project. Blessings to you.

@bay9876 Месяц назад

The ATV has finally found it's home. The roof line turned out really well to follow the unusual shaped buildings around it. The goats will foilage the forest as they eat their way aound the mountain, followed by the chickens cleaning up after any leftover morsels. The beasts are taking over your homestead.

@maguirecape Месяц назад

You two work together in such harmony, anticipating each other’s moves you are a joy to watch. Thank you.

@budwilliams6590 24 дня назад

I'm impressed Greg. Getting on the roof.

@PeterKNoone Месяц назад

Really glad to see you adding some support for that cantilevered porch thingy. I think the finish colors look great! Power Shed complete!!!!!!

@ThisOffGridLife Месяц назад

It’s so good to have it complete!

@FloatingVillageLife Месяц назад

Putting the final touches on the exterior of your 8x10 off-grid solar system power shed showcases your commitment to both functionality and aesthetics. The meticulous care you put into this project highlights your dedication to creating a practical yet beautifully crafted space. Your attention to detail and passion for off-grid living are truly inspiring. And I am Floating Village Life.

Looks awesome. If you paint the underside use sky blue, it is said it discourages wasp and other flying things from building as they think it is the sky. So I have been told. It works at the ranch in Texas so far. As for a decoration make a large lighting bolt out of wood paint it yellow and put it on the front or the door with the words Danger High Voltage in red on it. God bless you two in all things. Love from Texas.

@chasjacks9378 Месяц назад

Next year from now you need to do a show on how well the system works through all four seasons.

Hello Kids. I live in Long Beach Mississippi and absolutely love your channel. Your content and editing is superb. I like the way you start, stay with, and finish each project. No herky-jerky crap.

Another nice Saturday morning with Katie, Greg and the critters! I enjoy your problem solving and matter-of-fact way of life. ❤

@liammcgothigan2094 Месяц назад

Hi Katie an Greg good job looking good 👋

@larryperdue508 Месяц назад

Home depot or Amazon you can get a post holder that holds the post to your foundation so when its really stormy the roof doesn't lift up 😊😊

@davidfaler Месяц назад

The power shed looks great! You might want to put a smoke alarm and fire extinguisher for lithium batteries in there just to be safe.

@namastenicholas Месяц назад

You have the best music! Your background music is neither overpowering nor is it obnoxious. It makes watching your channel more enjoyable for me. Thank you.

How about a huge red Maple leaf? Or your own logo as an art work.

@Tanks-Link Месяц назад

Maybe putting some pavers down or something in front of the mechanical room there would be nice for the walkway outside in front

@1MartinWaite Месяц назад

The power shed looks brilliant and how you make building a shed so informative is beyond me I’m transfixed to each episode and not a boring second was seen even that extra cement block is to let you know if your getting close to the post without hitting or damaging the post as the trees will hit the block first 😂😂😂

@leekent3325 Месяц назад

Happy goats! Mocha looks good, great job!

@lauraquigley6403 Месяц назад

So glad you put a stronger foundation in @ the solar shed. Your roof will be as strong as the foundation. Walnut is my favorite stain Katie & yet the mocha looks nice Katie🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s

@PabloP169 Месяц назад

Glad to hear that you are going to put a couple of posts in to support that big overhang.

@jamessmith3741 Месяц назад

Paint a big yellow sun with a smiley face on the wall.

@damianmohan Месяц назад

Listen, the brown "mocha" paint thingy is perfect. What you could do is chop it up a bit by putting something like a wooden bench in front of the Electric shed and paint that with a complementary color such as a green. Brown and green go together as in nature. Plant pots could be put on the bench and paint those with colors that match the brown and bench color. Loads here you could do..

@glengillis7775 28 дней назад

Really great job you 2 young couple. Well done finishing off the build. One thing if I may. Make sure that door locks. Expensive contents inside Good work

@tompatrick3281 Месяц назад

Hey guys i watch your channel all the time , just a tip on rolling on paint or stain on that grooved siding a 1 1/4 or a 1 1/2 nap roller is a must I just recently remodeled the outside of my house and had the same problem as she had , I used a 1 1/2 nap roller and all my problems went away . Just a helpful tip for future problems ... I'm also glad you got all that solar equipment out of the main house, keep up the good work.

@richardwhite3711 Месяц назад

@ 10:47 I think the large over hang on the roof was a good idea especially putting the largest part over the front door side

@johnkirby6547 Месяц назад

Hello Greg and Katie ❤ That's some serious moon dust... Glad you did the supports and the atv still fits. Colors look good. Looking forward to solar panels.

@patriciafuchs5970 29 дней назад

@waynehall8131 Месяц назад

Nice job on the power shed adding the posts was a good call, you can colour it done.🎉

@robertlusnia506 Месяц назад

Amazing job that both of you have done

@Tanks-Link Месяц назад

When it comes to painting or staining that's why I just use these spray gun or airless and once you learn about different tips and stuff you can really do a lot of spraying without a lot of overspray and wasted paint and handheld shield piece of plywood or some works great.

@lambeausouth1 Месяц назад

I look forward to your videos every day! Well, done Kattie 😀

@lynnemac1402 Месяц назад

Great work guys the solar shed looks really good x

@crandell85 Месяц назад

6:59 Wood Finishing -Second coat of stain should help. Some woods need to be sanded before staining in order to take a transparent stain evenly. You could still go to a solid stain instead of transparent. Use 25mm roller sleeve to get : 1) inside grooves 2) a coat on quicker, then lay it off with a large brush to even it out before it dries. Maybe only tackle four boards at a time then brush it out. Oh. . . And using a wood handle/broom pole attached to the roller handle makes for easier, faster work👍

@barrymurray8264 Месяц назад

Really turned out very nice, well done.

@chipprice1174 Месяц назад

I'd have no problem with that building on my property. Too bad it's kinda hidden! Great job you two!

@johnmcnaught7453 28 дней назад

Nice job. Very impressed. Take Care.

@colleendarkow4949 Месяц назад

How about a barn quilt? It’s just paint and plywood. The possibilities are endless. I would go with a sun motif, either in a traditional quilting design or maybe a First Nations sun design in a nod to your BC roots.

@juliestrother167 29 дней назад

Wow! You have worked damn hard guys to get that finished. It looks great, think the posts are a good idea too ❤xx

@kevinwiley9696 Месяц назад

The posts may have been a cutting mistake but I like it better with a higher base. The Power Shed turned out Awesome!!!

@susiemurphy1476 29 дней назад

Looks great. You two do good work.

@cobb344 Месяц назад

You mentioned art work for your power shed… I have old license plates from our vehicles on my storage building. But, you could use all the leftover metal items (used saw blades, nuts & bolts, plumbing parts, old tools, etc.) from all your building projects. Make a frame on a scrap piece of plywood, then glue or tack random parts in random places til the space is filled. Paint it white or whatever color you like.

@coastalgaming1594 Месяц назад

nice to see you staining vs painting exterior wood, I tell all my customers to do that. If you put a pole on your roller it makes rolling the stain/paint soooo much easier. I use a telescoping paint pole for good flexibility.

@joelujan2978 Месяц назад

Decoration idea.... old large sawmill blade painted to look like a flower ... or if you are good at murals do that instead :)

@DonKin-om7yr Месяц назад

Stephen is so cute with his tiny little horns, soo cute!!

@coastalgaming1594 Месяц назад

for the door on the shed, paint the top and the bottom of the door. So many people miss that and it prematurely rots exterior doors. Some new doors say if the top and bottom aren't painted that it voids the warranty.

@ld5714 Месяц назад

The power shed really turned out nice and you guys should be very proud of it. For wall art, how about some different sized lightning bolts arranded on the side. You can Google clip art for it and cut them out of wood, paint to whatever contrast color you choose. Just my 2¢ It was fun seeing all the animals around your property. I look forward to your next projects. Have a great week and I'll see you on the next one. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.

@alantorrance6153 Месяц назад

That solid brown colour you have on the Power Shed looks pretty good. And Katie, that new sun hat you have is just magnificent. Looks really good on you.
