It was $4900

Whens the next video?

Every third course should have a bond beam,ie top ends should be cut out

If you just dig a simple cross trench where your out riggers can set down in the trench and angle your digger down a bit.. you can get a few more feet deeper. If youre worried about falling down in the hole, just leave it hitched on your truck as youre using it down in the hole.. there are always methods for going deeper... you just have to solve the puzzle

Just found your channel I'm saving up for one of these bad boys

I like Aspens. Just subscribed!

😊 hi I was enjoying your videos, although limited in quantity, it was beautiful to watch the construction in front of that Colorado backdrop. Just curious if you are planning on continuing, I have been subscribed and not seen any new videos since the one where you say happy new year, ha ha it’s going on July now. Well just thought I would inquire, hopefully you are doing well with your family and your build. I for one would be thrilled to see an updated video of the home you started building. Hope for a response, look forward to seeing you.

Must be no caliche Not safe to be in trench without protection I just bought an old backhoe but its a lot of work fixing it up.

Great update ... Good insulation is a no brainer for an offgrid home. Money well spent 👍

Hi wondering where you are setting up homestead?

Is this Montana?

Where is this location?

Thanks great update

nice progress!

Are you in the sangre de christo ranch?

That Wood Stove looks great! Just one small problem, not a tree to be seen for miles around, where is your wood coming from?

Looking good!!

thank you all the other heating solutions was about 150.00 for the heating pad only

Nice footage! Like the timelapses!

Awesome channel! Hello from Crestone!

Looking good keep it up and thanks for the update.

Curious if you plan to air seal the tyvek in some way? Not sure it is common/recommended but maybe it could improve air tightness?

Let's goooooo. Looking good, how's the wind been? I'm usually in the valley April through August the winds can be a bit much ✌️

Me again I withdraw the question, you answered it when you started your next video,

I just found your videos must admit enjoying so far. A quick question, are you an Aussie?

Hello, I really enjoyed the shed and solar build. I have never seen the use of joist hangers when the joists are resting on the sill plate. What is the purpose of that? You are supposed to nail the joist to the plate to hold the building down which makes the hangers unnecessary then through the rim board into the end of the joist. Also if you used hangers to "hang" the joist on a beam or something you would need a filler piece on the ends of the joists where the hangers are but these aren't hanging. Thanks.

Interesting. I had an infiltrator system installed at parent's house 6 yrs ago in Mass. It had gravity flow to distribution box then gravity flow to 4 rows of infiltrators. But there were no perforated/drilled pvc pipes inside the infiltrators. I thought one of the advantages of infiltrator system over traditional perforated pipe/gravel field is that there are no perforated pipes so there is no chance the pipe holes might get plugged up and the leach field fail. I assume you needed the drilled pipes because the flow/pressure from the pump would disturb/move the sand at the inflow side of first arch of each row and prevent even distribution of effluent in each row. Is this correct?

If you had used a double Block and tackle set up you could have hoisted the sheets up with far less effort. I say this as I had a kayak shed with a double block setup. I could lift my kayaks and tie them to the poles of my shed . I could lift them with 1 finger. Easy work. Thanks for the video. I really enjoyed watching your progress.

Good job

Awesome job! Funny how some people just don’t realize just how much time and energy goes into doing it yourself.

As allways brilliiant thank you .

So basically due to inflation since 2020 you've had to spend an extra $10,000? 🙄 😂😢

Seriously impressive how you did this by yourself and the jig you made to bring up the roof sheeting! Pricing is very important to share ! Good job

Absolutely beautiful footage and location for this home ! Great job ! Still watching but wanted to compliment the work and footage ! ❤

You need to take a look at your manual. There are two settings on the backhoe. One for shallow ditch and one for deep ditch. It requires moving a pin. It's easier to dig on the shallow setting but if you move it you can dig deeper

OK give me one reason why you didn't line up the apex of your shed with the sun and put the panels on that. Being steep the shed roof would optimise the solar gain in the winter -when you need every bit of power that you can get. Add some panels there and use some of the power to heat the batteries in the winter.

Awesome job! It's going to be a beautiful house and the views from those dormers will be spectacular I'm sure.

Very nicely done. You make it seem easy. We know it is not. Good job.

Well done hard work

looking good!!!

Let's goooooo ✌️

What state is this?

Horizontal blocking at panel edges, or is that at a later date?

I llke your wooden structure for the panels. Very simple design (which is in my book a good thing), solid materials, looking good. However, not sure what will happen under a big wind load. Your posts in the ground will have to take all the horizontal forces. But there is an easy fix, add some solid straps (dimension of your rafters) from the top of your shorter posts in the back to the bottom of your posts in front. Suddenly you will get two triangles instead of that weird four corner design. That's why roof-trusses are always made up of triangles. For aesthetics and strength you could double those added straps.

Excellent job...would love to see how Bi-Facial Panels would perform in the winter with the white snow???

Where is your crawl space access? What about your underground/underfloor plumbing?

thank you

Great time-lapse 👍

Didn’t you have an airport on that property?

Looks like you only have particle board as outer perimiter? Will that be strong enough to set up the exterior walls and take all the load? Thinking of the ends running along the floor joists
