    That Levi is a pretty darn good Carpenter. I think the rails just add a lot. It looks finished. Henry’s getting so big! Have a great day.

    For more space the 4 coffee cups could hang on the right side vertically with hooks or a cup holder Levi could build and..where kitty likes to sit up by the log burl hand rail post make a small little platform to nail to where he used to lay and put some sheepkin for him in it!! Kitty would be sooo cosy. The rail is so beautiful.. nice job ❤❤

    Levi, I have a suggestion for your generator issue. How about putting a door through the skirting and making a track somehow that you could store the generator under the house, where it should be a bit warmer, and then slide it outside whenever you need to use it. I don't know if that would work, but it's worth a try. Maybe first check what the temp is behind the skirting.

    • @Chris_at_Home
      @Chris_at_Home Месяц назад +6

      A big sliding battery tray would work. I’m getting ready to do that at our off-road cabin. It’s in an insulated box now to keep it warm while it runs in subzero temperatures so the oil breather doesn’t plug up. I’ve been using the insulated box for over 20 years with the same generator. I also use synthetic oil so it starts and stays running in the cold. Regular oil will cause the engine to have a low oil shutdown. After a few minutes the engine heat will allow it to run on the regular oil when it is restarted but I’d rather not do that.

    I really like how those stairs turned out! I need railings for my loft and stairs as well. No babies to protect, but some little dogs that get too close to the edge. Our loft will be my library and sewing area, and my dogs follow me everywhere.

    Let me first say that my wife and myself really enjoy watching your video's. For your Genset issues, What I did was I built an insulated box that covered the whole unit and had a separate exhaust hole and a vent coming into the unit so the air was heated by the unit as it was running. I made one for my work unit (EB6500 Honda Industrial ) as well as our camping unit (EU3000is Honda ) which is the same as the one that you have. The work one ran in cold weather from - 35 degrees to -45 degrees for 2 to 3 weeks at a time with no issues and the camping unit ran about the same range of temperatures and times just depending on how far back in the bush we were working.

    Hi from Australia,
    I've a suggestion regarding your clothes drying rack... put it on a pulley system suspended from the ceiling... (or make a wooden one) you wouldn't have to keep moving it on the floor as you would be walking under it... clothes dry very fast this way as heat rises...

    I am so in awe of your skills, Levi. Becca, you are a great assistant. That was a lot of work but, it is done! Watching you guys put your Nest together is so much fun. Those of us that are in our later years, didn't have the luxury of modern day tools. They are such a great investment. I love to see the dogs, cats and Henry, wandering around the spaces. Your little Boy is growing up fast. I love the knotts in the posts. There is a name for them, that escapes me but, they dress up the railings, for sure. Wait till family comes by and sees your progress. This is the perfect time to work on your indoor projects and, when Spring rolls around, you will be able to get back to your outdoor projects. I pray you will always be happy and well and who knows, maybe we will get to hear you are expecting another little one.
    The Drone footage was awesome, as was the music...simply, awesome!
    Take care of yourselves.

    Do like Simple Living Alaska. Build an insulated box with holes for the exhaust to get out. It will keep the oil warm and the warmth will dry any water out of the fuel

    💡Generator idea: watch Eric from Simple Living Alaska making an insulated generator box using wood & foam board insulation with exhaust & air intake holes, then make your own to keep your generators protected through those harsh Alaskan winters.😅

    I would suggest when he being to climb & stand on things to help him out to climb over things. Please Just take the things out of the upstairs because he could fall over the railing not saying you’re bad Parents just giving suggestions. They can & will Stack toys and books and chairs on top of each other just trying to get things too fit just so they can climb over something so please keep a watch out with that precious little child.!

    Have you thought of building some kind of cover for the generator? Here in Australia we don’t get quite as cold weather. But we have a cover in our water pump ( as we are on tank water). Not sure if it will work for you. Levi you are doing a fantastic job on that build. I’m curious do you have carpentry or building experience background, or are you just self taught?
