Building the 1st Wall - Cabin Build Ep.5

  • The floor is done which means it's time for walls! I am framing these walls around the windows I've collected. This is a little unorthodox but it's very important to me to save money and make a beautifully lit cabin with natural light from these windows.
    These walls aren't exactly built to spec. My headers aren't supported with jack studs however these are very little light windows and the wall is plenty strong. Also, there's no second story. Anyhow, this is a custom little cabin and it's really starting to look great!
    Thanks for stopping by and having a watch!

    ah man! Sucks about the screws, but the pressure treated wood isn't the reason they were a problem. Consider how a battery works. You have two different metals that are connected by something conductive - in this case - water because the external structure got wet. The less noble metal (in this case zinc) gives up electrons which flow through the water to the nearest metal (in this case aluminum). As the zinc loses the electrons, it rusts. The real culprit is you have aluminum or steel brackets, then used zinc screws nearby, then the whole thing got wet. On sailboats, we always attach a brick of zinc under our boat so that it rusts and we can replace it instead of all the other metal on our boat rusting. :)

    Shoulda had a rim joist on the sides, you can see the plywood sagging between joists, kind of a weak spot in the floor.

      @@WoodnessGoodness love your build so far. Hopefully you got some nice still shots of you working with your dad. Those are precious moments. 👌 Don't be afraid to screw your drip edge into the fascia on the front side. Your screws are gasketed so it's still water tight. Also I noticed you haven't nailed in your rimjoist yet. You might consider insulating between your floor joists before you nail that rimjoist on, as it will save you from having to crawl under to do it. Congrats on that baby as well!

    My dream was to build a wooden house. But, unfortunately, in Portugal, wood is very expensive. Besides, I can't just put myself in the forest and build one. Here, in addition to being illegal, it is quite bureaucratic to build something in the forest in this perspective.

      the gun shoots common nails for the structure, and he uses galvanized screws for decking. screws provide excellent retention of the boards and prevent the dreaded board squeak that occurs when nails are used.

      @@2102olma no, nails and screws have different purposes in construction. Screws are hard and brittle so arent typically allowed in some spots, particularly when used in shear (e.g. must use nails in joist hangers). Vise versa for nails, you don't want to use them in other situations. Lots of info out there on this if you do a bit of searching!
