    this is my first comment I have ever left on a youtube channel, which is funny cause I have been building digital video brands for many years so basically I live on-line. When you talk about the struggle with video I feel your pain, hours of video and moving a camera to cut everything away to try and put together a compelling video. The effort is not lost on me!
    Keep it up guys, let's see this too the end!

  • @paulkick7870

    The most satisfying part of any build.. dragging a couple sheets of subfloor onto the joists to walk along and provide shade underneath!

  • @videolabguy
    @videolabguy 6 лет назад +7

    I'm glad you finally trimmed those tree limbs back. I've been waiting for the horrible accident when a branch snags someone and sends them face first into the concrete floor. Everytime one of you walks passed them, I would cringe. Thank you!

    Alyssa, Jessie may be the machine, but you're the fuel!! Don't forget that my dear!! I've been there (in building a business with my husband) and once you start, there is no "off switch" for any reason. Don't lose your JOY, and focus on the end result to inspire yourself. And as hard as it is, you sometimes have to laugh off the stupid mistakes the other one makes......it's not the money, it's the double work and waste of your precious energy (especially when you have so much on YOUR plate)....but love can get you over that hump. Jessie is a good guy for sure!! But omg, sometimes .... grrrr!!! You're both amazing in every other way....so keep going, breathe, focus and remind yourself "this is not forever (this daily building and grind), and one day soon you will be done"..... and it will be amazing!! I'm cheering you both on........and Bugaboo!! 😻🐸

    We built from scratch several houses and remodeled several others during our married life. But watch you two work has me wore out watching. Your doing things that took us years of work to do by yourself in a very compressed time frame. We simply lived in a unfinished house and worked full time jobs and built full time over as money would allow. The good thing is we do have fond memories of designing and building all aspects of our homes. Now after 44 years of marriage as we sit on our small lake home we are crazy enough to once more start again. Yes we are crazy.

    Speaking of Scaffolding, you can pick up a "Bakers Rack" (single Scaffolding Unit on Wheels) for a couple hundred dollars that will make the entire rest of your project go along much more smoothly. Just a suggestion to look into.

    @teenytinydiva 6 лет назад +9

    Okay, so its cruel for those of us that watch every day not to know what the heck was going on. I thought something had gone really wrong when I didn't see any new uploads. It costs nothing to let your viewers know what's up and the good will earns you everything. This is exactly why I avoid getting attached to any social media groups or people...

  • @TheDocknowles
    @TheDocknowles 6 лет назад +8

    Just a hint. When you have many "same spaced" boards to attach...use a pre-cut spacer. It prevents mistakes, it doesn't cause them. i.e. the floor joists on 16" centers. Instead of measuring Every one...use a spacer cut to the exact measurement that separates each joist. More accurate and easier. Just sayin.

    Many people mentioned you should have used nails, they are right...ESPECIALLY considering how many times those screws were re-used. The impact puts much stress on the screws every time you run them in and out of something. I've seen many snap on just the second use with an impact.

Soon you will finish your house, you can look forward to moving into your house and out of the rv. You can then start living as you have planned.
