Amazing. You did a fantastic job. The spruce is so very useful...! Tree on roof is a "worst night mare" but you solved every challenge. Must persevere and keep our sense of humor.
Glad the damage was only cosmetic, and that the interior of the cabin stayed sound. Great solution and jack idea. And Connie's filming was excellent! Great job guys!
Loved the "slide jack" solution Lonny. "Where there is a will, there is a way", but sometimes we have to ponder for a spell to come up with the "way" part. Great video, and great example of self-reliance rather than "let George do it".
Hello Lonnie n Connie… I love how you guys always figure things out… and how you make do with simple things. We enjoy watching your channel so very much. God bless and thanks for the great entertainment. 💕👌🙏😇🇨🇦 LilliStJohn
Longtime viewer here, Just noticed your early videos have been viewed MILLIONS of times. Bravo, your channel is like "New Yankee Workshop" meets the wilderness with a microbudget. I love it. Also love how you don't litter the channel with advertising and product reviews. Keep on keeping on!
I think clamping the roof that was bowed upward , down to the 2x6 was a much better choice than trying to jack the 2x6 up. Clearly the plywood was warped upward. Great job improvising Lonnie 👍👍
Good Lord, life could be rough when you go at it alone. I am surprised you had help to get out there, but no one was willing to stay and help you lift that heavy 2x6 up in place. But as usual, Lonnie handles the crisis with dignity and resolve. Good job sir! Well done!
Up here, what we call a "deadman" is a short length of log or branch that has a rope tied to the middle and is buried in snow, dirt or sand to use as an anchor for something such as a tent.
@@Far-North-Bushcraft-Survival Down here, snow is rare. No matter the use or what we call it, it sure does come in handy at times. . . If you have enough common sense to use it. You, Lonnie, I still say, saved the day that one!
Its hard work but I'm sure you wouldn't have it any other way. The amount of people that wish they could live this lifestyle is really multiplying and your videos are greatly indepth so anyone could do it! Keep living the dream
Glad you have good neighbors who are willing to lend a helping hand! So glad it was fixable! The slide jack was a great lesson! I'll remember that one! God Bless You & Connie! Have a great spring!
Dear L and C. Just saying hi. Haven’t seen you in awhile. Sending love your way. I get peace and tranquillity at night by watching your old videos. Your voice is my friend. Always thinking of you. D🤙🇺🇸
Lonny if you ever want to make a new piece of wood look like it's old and weathered. Just take some steel shavings and place them in vinegar for and hour. Then strain it take the vinegar and wipe on or brush on. It will turn gray quickly. God bless
Lonnie and Ms. Connie ... EXCELLENT backwoods repair. Ingenious!!! Better video!!! Enjoyed it immensely!!! Love y’all and your videos!!! Me and mine wish you and yours all things great and good; take care, be safe, all my best and God bless!!! Chuck Knight from Buffalo, Texas, USA. 🤠🐩🖖✝️🙏☃️👍👍👍
Pines are notorious for blowing over. It’s nice to have trees close enough to the house for shade, but not so close to fall on it. You got off relatively easy. Thank God.
I have always said the day I don't learn something new is the day I will die. I come here to learn about survival, but this video isn't about that. You have, however, saved my life today. Need to start a nail but have to hold onto something with one hand? Look at what Lonnie did here. He wrapped his hand over the top of the hammer and held the nail between his fingers with the head of the nail against the side of the hammer. Then he just sort of slapped the board with this arrangement. It was enough to start the nail. With that much snow, unless you have a reliable method like this, you are going to lose a lot of nails. Thanks Lonnie.
I can't start to imagine how demanding it must have been to work with all the warm clothing and snow, but Lonnie was up to the challenge. I have a feeling that he has seen other challenges! ;-) Kudos from Canada. Darn right ! When there is a will, there is a way. We have the same saying in french and it goes like this : "Quand on veut, on peux"... Cheers and thanks for all your videos. In addition to being entertaining, we get to learn A LOT! Thanks again ! -dan
Dear Friend. What a task the storm has messed you up, even if you have been able to fix it and it hasn't been complicated, with so much snow it's a bit difficult to work. I'm very glad you made it. Greetings from Madrid
Now I am starting to think how I'm going to cut down every tree in the falling range of my cabin, even though I don't have one... Yet! Glad that you don't have any heavy damage on the roof!
Lovely to see you both again and love what you do . It's also good to see that there are good people out there to keep an eye out and offer help when it is needed. A good lesson for everyone. Stay safe , Jim
Good job, friend. Your fast forward commentary had me in stitches, too. Notice some advice to cut down all the nearby trees for prevention. See you not doing it. Wise man. That is the way it began in my country. Now, there are no trees left, just houses and concrete and cars and pollution. Stay free.
Wow! It's bad that you got some damage to your cabin. However, it has served as a teaching opportunity that even with limited resources in a remote location, things can be repaired. Thank you for keeping it real on both the challenges of owning and managing a cabin. Congrats on the repair and God bless the two of you.
Alaska keeps you young. That’s for sure. Good work :). More than half the kids these days don’t know what it’s like to have callus on their hands and the meaning of hard work.
Great work and job done Lonnie ! im glad it wasn't a herendas mess , time to look at all the current threats around the cabin . blessings to the woman behind the scenes !
Heart breaking to see that tree on the roof. Yet you made lemonade from the lemons. Nicely done. I thought for sure you were going to use a bottle jack on the base, Nope. Slide jack, I will remember that one. Glad it all worked out for you.
Had a tree fall on my home a couple weeks back. One that split into three and was bigger than most upon my hill. The very tree I was worried about..... came crashing through my home. But only slightly so, because the big gum shoe tree out front saved me! Slowed the big thing to a crawl and only did some major, slight damaged if that makes any sense... LOL... As always I learn from everything you do Lonnie! I love your show man. People like us persevere.
Well done Lonnie, as i watched the repair i thought thats how i would have done it. useing the slide jack as a third hand. Smart thinking. here in canada it's "hold my drink, watch this!"👍😆
First a bear, now a tree. Maybe the bear knocked over the tree to try and get in. Lol. At least the tree didn’t do too much damage. Seemed like an easy repair. Great slide jack idea. You and Connie stay safe and be well. Thanks for sharing.
Great job. Thanks for sharing. I’m glad the damage was minimal. Good lessons: If there’s a will there’s a way and “simple tools” work. I really enjoy your videos and love the beautiful scenery in which you live in. Enjoy Connie’s recipes. Keep going!!
Connie...strike 1...lol . there something to be said for a man thats good with his hands. Good stuff and helped saved the sleeping flies...lol stay safe guys. Glad it was minimal damage.
Hey Lonnie, when I'm putting up 8'×4' sheets of plaster board up on my own I use a ' deadman" or T-piece to act as another pair of hands while I fix it. Your prop or deadman worked great. You did a great repair, atb Adam 👍🙂

Lonnie, you're BRILLIANT!!! Great job!
Amazing. You did a fantastic job. The spruce is so very useful...! Tree on roof is a "worst night mare" but you solved every challenge. Must persevere and keep our sense of humor.
Another great video from the teacher.
Not for me, I became cold just watching this. I admire your pluck.
Best part of the whole video was the comment from Connie,
"STRIKE ONE" LOL !!!
Great job. Very inventive way of solving the problem. Looks real good. God bless you and Connie.
I'm so glad there was not more damage. Thank God. I enjoyed watching you think through the repair. Thanks for including me, and God bless you both
Great job Lonnie! Great video Lonnie and Connie. Y’all stay warm.
If I live closer I would come help y’all with stuff like that if y’all needed it!
Good job Lonnie. It was interesting to see how you solved this problem. Hugs to Connie. God bless.💖
#Amen Really enjoyed this video! #High5Blessins you were able to put your experiences to use to fix the roof!
Luv the long beard and Red Boots Totally Rockin A Fashion Trend!
Glad the damage was only cosmetic, and that the interior of the cabin stayed sound. Great solution and jack idea. And Connie's filming was excellent! Great job guys!
nice work!!!
This shows how much of a problem solver and, skills needed for a person to live independently in the great north. Your a master Lonnie!
Your bush knowledge and ingenuity paid off for u once again,great job Lonnie 👍👍
Your best tool is the one on your shoulders. Great job
Glad your Friends Alerted You To The Situation, Great Repair, Lonnie & Connie. ATB T God Bless
Great job buddy...thank god every thing is Okay now 💜🙏🏼
The life you guys live is so free and unencumbered by the craziness for the world.
It’s absolutely incredible to watch.
Loved the "slide jack" solution Lonny. "Where there is a will, there is a way", but sometimes we have to ponder for a spell to come up with the "way" part. Great video, and great example of self-reliance rather than "let George do it".
God's inspiration for sure. Be blessed.

I've long been aware that "where there's a will there's a way", but every now and then I forget. Thanks for this reminder!
You did good, and you made a movie - very cool! I hate ladders. Thanks Lanny and Connie!
That's how country folk tick and get things done 👍.You and the Mrs be safe.
You are handyman indeed.👍😁

Wonderful job...and interesting solutions for the problem! I am always learning from you!
Big hug to you both from across the Great Pond!
We call your "slide jack" a "dead man". Multiple uses for it! You did good, Lonnie. Saved the day!
Up here, what we call a "deadman" is a short length of log or branch that has a rope tied to the middle and is buried in snow, dirt or sand to use as an anchor for something such as a tent.
Up in Canada a "dead man" is what the wife would call you if she finds you at another women's house! 😁😎

Nice work Lonnie, now u take care :)
Neighbors helping neighbors. The tree is off and damage is fixed, now for some of Connie’s cooking. Blessings....Peace.
Great video Lonnie! You are a very smart guy! I love these kinds of videos, thank you for sharing with us!
Its hard work but I'm sure you wouldn't have it any other way. The amount of people that wish they could live this lifestyle is really multiplying and your videos are greatly indepth so anyone could do it! Keep living the dream
Glad you could get things fixed up and at least get a nice video out of your troubles. God bless you both!

Awesome job, that's great that you came up with a solution to hold that up.
That was amazing watching you figure out how to do this job. A job well done.

Glad that there wasn't too much damage. Great that your friends discovered this early on so you could react quickly. Be safe out there! God Bless.

Came to see the Arctic Cat sawhorse in action. Was not disappointed.
love your ingenuity
Improvise, adapt, overcome. Well done.
Wow, really fantastic idea with this "sly jack-stand"! Especially with this plank on the bottom! Very intelligent! God bless!
How wonderful to have friends. Praise God !!!

Glad you managed to fix it without too much bother. Your attitude is inspirational. Wishing you well.
Lonnie good job! Necessity is the mother of invention with your slide jack. Working by yourself you got it done.
God bless ya both. Loved the enginuity!

As the Boss of the Swamp would say "Thats just good backwoods logic"
love it Yankee ingenuity!
very creative and glad there wasn't more damage- lots of work with just the two of you.
Great fix!
Good to see you were able to put things right. All the best to you both !

Very ingenious, glad it all worked out.
Hoping not much damage
And easily repairable if any damage is present
Lonnie & Connie have yourself a wonderful night
Pretty good job of "Jerry rigging" there Lonnie. Clever way of solving the problem.
awesome job
Very good my friend, adapt and overcome, excellent problem solving at its best ! Stay warm and safe! Looking forward to the next video ! Thanks

Glad you fixed it using Yankee ingenuity! You have good friends and neighbors.
Very Clever Repair! Well Done. 👍🏻 Really impressed with the improvised “sliding jack”.
Great great job!
Well thought out!
Well planned!
Well executed!
Made some lemonade out to that winterized lemon!
God bless you both!
So sorry for what happened I wish you both a huge amount of good luck🍀🍀🍀🍀and all the best. Greetings from Zürich🇨🇭

Hi from UK!👋 when there isnt a 9foot bigfoot handy to hold your roof up, use a slide jack!! Ingenius!!👍
Well done Lonnie, as i watched the repair i thought thats how i would have done it. useing the slide jack as a third hand. Smart thinking. here in canada it's "hold my drink, watch this!"👍😆
Genius at using what you have to get things done right. Thanks so much for sharing.
