Tiny Cabin PNW
США
Добавлен 1 сен 2022
Growing up, summers were a mix of building alongside my grandpa and hiking Montana peaks. When we reached creekside meadows or summited jagged peaks, I would usually say with excitement "we should build a cabin here!" My grandpa would chuckle at my naivety, and we would continue our hike.
40 years later I finally had the opportunity to build the cabin of my childhood dreams. This is the story of building that dream.
Join us as we journey through each step of building our off-grid tiny cabin in the Pacific Northwest mountains.

Starting to Sheetrock - Building an Off-Grid Tiny Cabin Ep. 34
Sheetrock may not be the most rustic cabin finish.
...but it is fairly inexpensive and somewhat forgiving.
The downside? It's a workout!

Insulating With MOLTEN ROCK? Building an Off-Grid Tiny Cabin Ep. 33
Просмотров 2,1 тыс.8 месяцев назад
Last fall, early snow almost kept us from getting our Rockwool rafter insulation to our off-grid tiny cabin: ruclips.net/video/Q2SxRkmNFag/видео.htmlsi=SMuysDTf18oovekR This year I kept a better eye on the weather and got our wall insulation to the cabin hours before a storm set in. Again, I chose Rockwool insulation for higher R-value, moisture resistance, and fire resistance. Even with 2x4 wa...

Just because we are building an off-grid cabin, it doesn't mean we want to be without the modern creature comforts that come with electricity. The first step is roughing all the electrical. It must be done before the wall insulation goes up. There is a chill in the air and the colors are changing on the mountain, I don't have much time. #offgridcabinbuild Follow the entire cabin build journey: ...

Our off-grid mountain cabin needed a deck that would give us a front-row seat to the beauty of the amazing plants that grow on the mountain. It's late July and the huckleberry crop is the best in decades. I don't think I'll see much of my wife while finishing the deck. Stick around to the end of this video and I'll share the location of my favorite place to get huckleberries. #offgridcabinbuild...

It's been great to build again on our off-grid cabin, but the boys really wanted to try out their new fishing poles and spend some time tent camping. We didn't catch anything we could make a meal out of, but we had a great time exploring another area just a short drive from our tiny off-grid cabin. #pacificnorthwest #northidaho #cabelas #polarisoffroad

Videos without talking and explanations really suck
?? What kind of video is this? Waste of time
That's pretty cool to see a moose in Wa. Do you see them often?
Seems like we see them a few times a year in the area we live in.
Will these wooden beams not rot if put into the soil?
They are ground contact pressure treated so they should be good for a long time.
@tinycabinpnw Ahh ok. How long would you suppose roughly?
Very cool video. You mentioned in the comments that the beams are attached to the posts using 14" lag screws. I was wondering if you end up adding some brackets to keep it in place, but also, do you "toenail" the screws? Thank you for the video!
I was planning on adding diagonal 4x4 bracing to give it extra wind resistance strength and also add steel straps to further strengthen the bond between the beams and the posts. I didn't toenail the screws, they were put in straight vertical into the end grain of the posts. Not the best for holding again uplift, but I figured that plus the straps should secure it well.
@@tinycabinpnw Thank you for sharing your experience, it really helps.
Slide the damn grab up as you move up,smh.
You used 8 piers? Would that do for a 10x24 too? Do you want a foundation build job in Asheville NC?
Yes, I did use 8 piers. It all depends on the weight-bearing characteristics of your soil. Take a look at the description and it should walk you through the calculations and tools I used. Sorry, I'm afraid my day job would keep me from giving you a hand on your project. I bet there are some great areas around there for cabin builds!
I'm doing a 10 x 24ft. Is yours to residential code? Mine has to be. How much did it cost you? Great work! If it's to code do you have plans / specs?
You would have to look into you local residential code to determine if it meets code for your area. Unfortunately I didn't come up with a set of plans for this project. I basically had a vision for what I wanted it to look like and I started building. For the foundation I did run the math calculations to determine my cabin would need 8 piers. I believe I currently have about $12k into the project.
I did the exact same thing. I had that rim board supported with those GRK ledger screws and you could put the weight of an elephant up there.
Are you using 4x4's or 6x6's
I used 6x6s for the foundation sitting on Camo Blocks to distribute the weight over more soil.
If it has electricity it’s not “off grid” is it?
The plan is to power the cabin with solar panels and a backup generator if it’s ever needed. With that setup do you still think it qualifies as “off grid”?
Did you really build the deck without the treated lumber?
The framing is pressure treated and the decking is cedar. It has similar rot and pest resistance to redwood but was more economical.
Music is bad and loud like a stupid commercial
What is the point of this video- to show off? No freaking info and you are boring to look at. Argh!
doing solar, we spray metals roofs that are steep with a sugar water mixture via pump sprayer. let it dry for a little bit until it gets tacky, its amazing what it does... I couldn't believe it.
Thanks for the tip! I'll have to try that on my next project!
Does it leave a spot that collects dirt?
about what ratio ?
Most coating systems we spray would fail that if you add sugar water to their system
attracts rodents? lol
How did you attach the rope to an anchor point? Unless I missed that bit. Thanks for video.
Well...that part might not have received full safety approval. I tied off around trees on the opposite side of the roof that I was working.
@@tinycabinpnw Yay, for trees 👍
Hello, Watched some other videos and they got caught where mice and other things entered upstairs. I hate nice,have had 11live and dead and decomposed, horrific! That's in the city out there who knows,they can squeeze through the tiniest crack. Most people don't think on this scenario.Sorry to mention this.
Yes, that was concern for us as well. We tried to seal everything up to prevent that, but you are right they can sneak in through the smallest cracks.
I like the idea of the camo blocks. Don’t understand why they say you are not supposed to bury them. Where did you purchase yours?
I think I got my through Amazon or Home Depot online. They seem to have worked well so far.
That kid aint even swinging a hammer.... Kids these days ;)
Yep all about the power tool these days! Lol
I have seen people cut insulation with scalloped edge bread knives but never a hand saw. It was cool that you were able to rip cut the insulation for the California corners and then cross cut for a relief for the romex. Great tips!
I’m glad you found the tips helpful! I was planning on using a bread knife too but I left it at home on the counter so i figured I’d give the saw a try! Seemed to work good!
Now, when you were building your right wall. Couldn't know if you put the studs the other way. So they were the same thickness as your ceiling rafters,
I’m not sure I’m following you. Where at in the video are you referring to?
I like the Z channel at around 3:00, so many miss this or think putting a trim board over the joint is a solution. This is an enjoyable series. 🙂
I saw this in the LP instructions and it makes for a nice clean joint without allowing moisture to soak into the top edge of the bottom sheet. I’m glad you are enjoying the series!
You're a GREAT dad! Bless your wonderful family ... cabin beginning to look great
Thanks for the kind words.
I built mine the same way using 5 inch deck screws (1.5 thru the outside board then 3 inches in to the studs at a slight downward angle)with only 2x4s Each screw has a shear rating of 500 lbs and I know that my Christmas tree and lights are very safe . this building will be fine .I've been to tough shed factory and they don`t do what you are advocating.
Great job
Ok. I’ve watched all of your cabin build videos up until now. Thanks for showing yours steps, I’m learning a lot. Now, I’m terrified of heights and I’ve been trying to figure out how to get the roof on. I guess you’ve answered that question, although I’m dizzy just watching you lol
I’m glad you enjoyed the videos! Yes, the roof work can be a bit scary. When I was younger heights didn’t bother me, but now I’m a little more hesitant to do this type of work. The ascenders do help!
Awesome dad and built, please don't always be on the business end of the nail gun

What kinda foundation??
It’s a pier and beam foundation on camo blocks. These blocks were actually a bit stronger than concrete and easier to carry to the build site.
@@tinycabinpnw Thanks
Outstanding Craftsman ship 👍!😇!😇!😇!
Where in the PNW is this?
Eastern Washington/Northern Idaho area.
Nice cabin but you get a A for the music 37:36 37:36
Glad you enjoyed both!
I'm assigning you ladder safety training 😂
😂
Kinda looked like a movie prop
Never hang a wall before you hang out the lids/ceilings, also always put the butt joints over windows and door ways.
Thanks for the tips!
Cute boy very sweet
👍👍
The measurement and where to cut is what gets me
Agreed, this part can be a challenge. In this video I showed how I used an online tool to do the measurements: ruclips.net/video/BheIcOfAyMY/видео.html
Great video series on the build. Just found your channel. This is exactly what I'm thinking about doing on my northern MN property. Cant wait to see how you use the space inside.
The final panels? What about all of them in the center?
Considering it's moving and moving away from you I'd say no put some dry dog food out
