I love the tile work. It works well with the style you chose for the building. A very unique property. It looks great. It has a nice feel. Really enjoy your videos.
Shooting blanks, lol. The bathroom door is the big statement piece - I really like pocket doors, they make so much sense. Looks better without the tile backsplash in the kitchen. Creative way to use the accent tile in the bath so you didn't have to cut the larger tile. There's a need for smaller homes for our aging population - this same type of layout with a garage would be lifesaver for many senior citizens.
Absolutely stunning! I love the timber pieces above the doors and the incredible way you use timber in your cabin as well as this apartment. Very kind of you to help your neighbour.
You make it so hard to pick a favorite thing in that apartment, it’s all so customized. I do love that pony wall, those small black and white tiles, the top of the doors, the lights, the chairs,the barstools etc etc, it’s all my favorite, the whole damn place! The bus sounds great and what a truly worthy charity.
You made a very beautiful apartment with many beautiful details and design. Thank you for sharing your journey, looking forward to seeing your neighbors project. God you and your family.
Awesome Video, you’re editing, information, clarity are all top notch, got to say I thought they were good before, but this one is your best. You get your information out and are extremely clear, way easy to follow and interesting to watch you don’t waste time
Congratulations! the place looks wonderful. You do awesome work. Enjoy the vids so keep them coming! Once again great job and its always good to see such a hard worker! Take care - Biz
Wow, the micro apartment turned out awesome. Because I do some of the same types of projects, renovating the two-story farmhouse, I can relate with your decision making. I have several areas that required knee walls as well but they always turn out to be great features.
I love the idea behind the next video... so thank them for allowing you to share it with us. Thanks, too, for being willing to work with them and bring us a cool project. I love the way the apartment turned out.... here's hoping you find good guests/tenants!
Thank you Tyler. We’re still working on that video. They sent the bus off to a paint shop and it kinda got stuck there but that video is still in the works.
Wow, that looks amazing, Mike. I'm very impressed with the tiled bathroom and custom woodwork. BTW, I like the door caps. I look forward to your next video about the van conversion.
Just love the work that you do. Just beautiful. Love the apartment. Thank you for helping with such a great cause. You can be rest assured that I'll watch that video that video when it comes out.
Mike, you amaze me with the precision and thoroughness of your work. The thought processes that go into making everything work together would keep me up at nights (they do anyway on even the most mundane projects of building our own home). I'd love to have you here for a month just to see what you'd come up with in our little house designs. So far we're pretty happy with how things are turning out, as long as we don't rush the process. The wife has become a first class wood worker. She can joint, plane, rout and finish just about anything we need. (We just built our first set of bifold doors that turned out wonderful). Keep posting these amazing videos!
I love it! And I know you don't really like the look of the blue tile, but honestly I think it looks good. And I like the way it ties in with the bathroom without matching exactly. It both ties the two spaces together, AND differentiates them. That's not an easy thing to do; it takes a delicate balance to achieve even when planned that way. The fact that it wasn't intentional is kinda cool.
Thank you, I actually do like that blue tile now that I took it off the kitchen wall, I just didn't like it up there for whatever reason. I like the color and so does Sarah!
It is well worth watching a real craftsman perform his trade. The apartment is like a work of art. I have friends who built a house and it also had lovely wood work and felt cozy like your apartment, the thing about their house, you could have had a comfortable chair as the only furniture in each room and felt like that was all the furniture you needed. Your apartment will have that same feeling.
There's just something about an owner built home that can't be duplicated. When people build their own house it always has so many unique features and details that would never happen otherwise.
You do such beautiful work, Mike. I love watching a detail man do his thing, lol. Got my knee replaced a couple of weeks ago, so I am 2 weeks closer to being able to work on my house and finish it. Lots of tiling to do, so your suggestions were welcomed. I am so revved to get going on everything, but the docs say to just hang tight for a few more weeks, lol. I'm already way ahead of schedule on PT, so maybe I can get going soon! Looking forward to your next project. Love the teaching you're doing. Thank you.
Hello Diana, I hope your knee recovery is going well! My father in law just had two done and he is doing great! My dad had his done and nothing but pain. Hopefully you are one of those whom it goes well for! Good luck on your projects!
It turned out beautiful. I can't believe you don't like the way your header trim turned out on the doors. I think it looks amazing. You are a true carpenter, and settling for ordinary just isn't good enough for any of your projects. I can't wait to see the bus build and whatever comes after.
Hey thanks, it was mostly the color of the wood that I didn't like. but now that it's been done for a while it doesn't bother me. Sometimes my initial reactions are just well initial reactions :)
i look forward to your next video. what a super cool project and the cross selling (bartering) of the batteries is great, actually. the apartment is beautiful. i've said it before, but i LOVE your attention to detail. have fun with the bus
Wow... nice transformation for the old flophouse! You sure have put out some very interesting and informative videos over the years. Thanks for sharing.
❤ i think it wonderful your helping your neighbours with the programe of helping addicts and people effected by alcoholism. I always love your work the unit looks so stunning well done mu friend. Sending regards to you and Sarah from Australia ❤
I truly enjoyed following your journey working on the apartment - congrats on how it turned out!! Well done friend! Also, that is super cool of you to help your neighbors out - God bless them for what they are doing for the community! 🙏 Have them check out A Bus Life Story if they need any insight or tips on building out that bus. This guy's name is Isaac and he has built out several small buses & one big bus for his own personal use. He has videos showing the entire process from gutting them to the finished product. He made all the cabinetry and did all the electrical & plumbing & solar. He has one short bus completed that is for sale. He and his partner just got property so his channel content is going to shift but he has some really great videos that they might find helpful as they do their build. This guys does NOT cut corners....he even installed a shower in his big bus. Take care Mike & again congrats on finishing the apartment! 🤗
So excited today to see a video from you. The fixtures in the bathroom are really nice. Love the stripe in the bathroom tiles. Glad you took out the tile over the stove. It needed to be much larger or go away entirely. Looking forward to the bus remodel next door. You are a good man for helping them and being inclusive. Thanks for sharing
Great job Mike,you’ve transformed that building into such a valuable asset. I would love to own an old place like that.great job on the plumbing by the way.
Thanks Jason, I appreciate that, we should be having our final plumbing inspection soon if I can finish two more bathrooms in the other apartment. Not this weekend though because we'll be relaxing on long lake!
Mike, so impressed with everything you do. So amazing to see what you’re doing to revitalize the property and your focus on improving and highlighting the post it I’ve work being done in your community. Cheers!!
I keep imagining renting your micro apartment as an Airbnb offering when visiting your fair city. Not sure that is your plan but it would be a delightful place to "come home" to. Bravo! Mike. You are a craftsman AND an artist. I always look forward to what is coming next. I can't wait for you to do more work on your mini pond at the 50 acres and a cabin. Cheers!
Your attention to detail is so ....detailed. I've learned much from watching even though I haven't a clue some times. With the removal of the tile and your mudding has given me hope when I tear out the old medicine cabinet. I decorate cakes, if I can smooth frosting I can do that. Of course I'll watch your video. I hope you have a great tenant and a great contract to match.
Wow Mike, it looks so good! I already absolutely loved the "naked" parts of the wall, but with all you added, it looks even more finished, in every sense of the word. I love the detail on the door trim! Great. Oh, and I look forward to the bus-episode!
The apartment is beautiful, Mike! Your creativity always shines through. I would imagine there will be plenty of folks that will want to stay there. All the best to you and Sarah!
I think everything is top notch and really beautiful. I would put a clear glass panel on the wall behind the cook top. It needs something to protect the wall in my opinion, but I could be wrong.
I got an item called "chair socks" that keep the legs of my chairs from damaging my floors. Felted bottoms so it is easy to slide a chair around the room when cleaning and such.
The knee walls are definitely a PLUS!!! And yes, a perfect place for plants.
I love the tile work. It works well with the style you chose for the building. A very unique property. It looks great. It has a nice feel. Really enjoy your videos.
Shooting blanks, lol. The bathroom door is the big statement piece - I really like pocket doors, they make so much sense. Looks better without the tile backsplash in the kitchen.

Thank you John, glad you liked it.
Looks great! Please do a video when the whole building is completed!!
Thank you, I do plan on making a tour when it is done, I'm probably about two months away from being complete.
Absolutely stunning! I love the timber pieces above the doors and the incredible way you use timber in your cabin as well as this apartment. Very kind of you to help your neighbour.
Thank you very much!

Thanks Shawn I am really glad you enjoyed this one!
The visual interest you have created in this apartment is amazing. Who wouldn't love living here? It's definitely a piece of art. Well done!
Thank you so much!
Who ever gets to live there will be very happy, great place. You’re a master carpenter. Well done.
Wow this looks fabulous! Enjoyed watching the process. Looking forward to seeing your bus project for your neighbor.
Impressive, as always with everything you do. I absolutely love the bathroom door.
Thank you !
Beautiful job!
Thank you so much 😀
Love the black and white mosaic tile strips over the bath. So cool.
Thank you!
Awesome craftsmanship Mike!❤

Thank you Sinbads!
Very good job there Mike your a real tradesman for sure
Thank you so much Kriss
Yes well done ! I agree that the ledge/ knee wall along the windows is actually very aesthetic.
I hope your guests all appreciate what a fabulous craftsman you are. Beautiful!!
I hope so too! Thank you!

That's very cool that your wife has gotten into woodworking, it's a great hobby I bet she enjoys it a lot. Congrats on the bifold doors.
Nice to see the final outcome. Can't wait to see what's next.
Thanks Jay!
Another great example of fine craftsmanship Mike! It will never look better than this.
Thank you Doug
That bathroom door looks amazing! It must be a huge relief to get the apartment cash flowing for you.
Thank you Jake yea it definitely is.

Some one or ones will get to enjoy a beautiful and unique apartment. I hope they appreciate all your hard work and don't mistreat it. Rich
Thank you, me too!
Will be sure to watch the next video. Great that you’re helping them and love that you gave the one guy work during this reno.
Thanks 👍
Most beautiful little apartment, your future tenant/s are very lucky people
You do such beautiful work, Mike. I love watching a detail man do his thing, lol.

Please🕊 give that knee the tender loving care you deserve for now and the future. The job you want done can wait a bit. You will get it finished.
Hello Diana, I hope your knee recovery is going well! My father in law just had two done and he is doing great! My dad had his done and nothing but pain. Hopefully you are one of those whom it goes well for! Good luck on your projects!

I was so pleased to see the video release, my fix of artistically beautiful woodworking and design. Thank you so much you did a fabulous job.
Thanks so much Judy!
Wow! Love the door trim detail! Actually, I love it all! You're a true craftsman Mike!
Thank you so much Josh

The Apartment looks great. Nicely done.
Wow! It's beautiful, every part of it shows your attention to detail. And looking forward to the next one with the bus. Bless you for helping them.

Y'all did an awesome job on your apartment and what a great thing to do for your neighbors.
Thank you so much!
Incredible design, craftsmanship and especially the attention to every detail. Well done, sir!
Thank you very much!
details on modeling on hickory door are really good looking and front door too
Your work could be featured in a high-end coffee table book, quality artistic practical.
I truly enjoyed following your journey working on the apartment - congrats on how it turned out!!

Great video Mike. Looking forward to the bus reno video.your a good man for donating those panels and controls 👍
Thanks 👍
Mike, what a pleasure to watch such a talented craftsman. See you next video. Jeff
Hi Jeff, thanks man!
So excited today to see a video from you. The fixtures in the bathroom are really nice. Love the stripe in the bathroom tiles. Glad you took out the tile over the stove. It needed to be much larger or go away entirely. Looking forward to the bus remodel next door. You are a good man for helping them and being inclusive. Thanks for sharing

Gorgeous. And I LOVE the kitchen island tile.
Thank you! 😊
Wow, what a job, I watched since we looked from the street
Was that you who left the note on the front door?
Great job Mike,you’ve transformed that building into such a valuable asset. I would love to own an old place like that.great job on the plumbing by the way.
Thanks Jason, I appreciate that, we should be having our final plumbing inspection soon if I can finish two more bathrooms in the other apartment. Not this weekend though because we'll be relaxing on long lake!

The trim work looks amazing, especially the door trim 😁
Thanks! 👍
Fantastic job Miguel! You should be really proud, everything looks so good!
Fantastic work, Mike! Congratulations on finishing that place. Hope you can find an appropriate tenant soon.
Thank you!

Awesome job!!! I love the tiles and the detail in the shower 👍💪💪
Love your content.
Been watching for years.
Always looking for a new update every Saturday morning❤
Say encouraged my friend👍

As usual. A fine craftsman! Keep up the good work.
Thanks, will do!
What a turn around. You did a great job!

Good on ya partner! Great to give back; looking forward to the video.
Thank you Michael
You did an amazing job. It is beautiful 🥰.
You did an amazing job on the apartment - well done!
Thank you!! 😊
man that hickory door really has character / beautiful ( like you spokes model, which we haven't seen yet in this video )
You did a really nice job on your apartment
I love it! What a great job you've done! ❤😊
I personally like stainless steel behind stove tops for the ease of cleaning and heat resistance
Beautiful, i would love to have place like this! Especially that plant wall
Thank you!
Excellent! I admire your sock collection, by the way!
haha thanks the socks are courtesy of Sarah!
Great job Mike, your work is superb!!!
Thank you very much!
Great 👍 job. Beautiful wood.
Thanks!
Looks great! Looking forward to the next video.
Thanks for watching!
The apartment is beautiful, Mike! Your creativity always shines through. I would imagine there will be plenty of folks that will want to stay there. All the best to you and Sarah!
Thank you Sydney!
Apartment or like a Airbnb?? Anyway it will be passive income which is pretty cool. Great job and continue to love the attention to detail.
It's going to be a place for our friends and family to stay and an AirBnB the rest of the time.
Looks beautiful.
It's gorgeous!
I think everything is top notch and really beautiful. I would put a clear glass panel on the wall behind the cook top. It needs something to protect the wall in my opinion, but I could be wrong.
I plan to do something there, just not sure what yet.
Stunning !
I got an item called "chair socks" that keep the legs of my chairs from damaging my floors. Felted bottoms so it is easy to slide a chair around the room when cleaning and such.
That sounds like something I need!
Such a beautiful apartment
Thank you!
It is a jewel box…beautiful
Gorgeous!
Looks great! Great work!
Great job Mike! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
