Yeah it looks like a disaster but she’s got good bones! You and Brooke are gonna have lots of content material outta this one! Thanks for taking us on the journey!
you and your family are the right people for this tremendous project. mercy, the previous owners and four legged tenants had some interesting ingenuity.... looking forward to watching you rebuild this cabin. i imagine it's gonna become a great place. continued blessings.🕊
I'm not sure whether you are a genius or crazy but your attitude is admirable. Reminds me of the song Me and Bobby McGee- "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose". And then you light the stove.
O boy....I've been looking forward to seeing some progress on that.....mess!!!??? Wow, there's alot to be fixed!! That wood burner you made is so cool...genius!! And, I used the word genius before you said it!!!😂😂😂
I’ve been chomping on the bit to see you guys get to work on this absolute unit of a cabin. Good luck and stay safe, look forward to future videos ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am so looking forward to this rebuild. Your attitude toward a big task is great. I wish I had that type of attitude toward my little projects. Thank You !!!!
Finally! So excited to see the continuation of this 'disaster'. Really love how the whole family is going to be involved! (Belle can bring coffee service to the woods?!) Looking forward to the progress.
I’m currently renovating (rebuilding) an old cabin too and I’ve decided to just use this one channel as my go to for know how and practical solutions for the projects I have planned. RUclips can do your head in with the amount of ‘how to’ choice available. I love Dave’s humour and no nonsense approach….he’s my kind of fella. I’m currently fitting a wood stove the ‘Whipple’ way….lovin it. Thanks man, you really provide a service. Take care and have a wonderful Christmas with your family.
Great video! I wish I had you guys to come help me redo a 100-year-old collapsed building that I am in the process of rebuilding in Happy, Texas! It's great to see you back with a new video.
That aluminum is used in roll up doors /gates, previous owner probably has free access to it because it’s expensive. That’s a great project, I’ve done a few just like that in less desirable places. I’d do this one just to be in the woods all day.
I'm so glad you're giving the old place a chance! I need to do a major remodel on my garage. Everyone wants me to tear it done, but it's good practice for me. I can watch what you're doing as you go & learn a few things. I'm almost 65 & I've watched you & Brooke & Mickey build & redo places & I'm inspired. Thanks! 😊
There is a place across the creek from me with just 2 acres, that I almost bought. It was bought by a couple from out of the area and they are doing the same thing you are. They use this house as a base for riding atvs, they gutted the inside and are now replacing the seals, it's closed up with heat and they now stay there while they work. Great video Dave, can't wait for the series of fixing this up.
Man you crack me up. “Nothing like taking a bunch of junk and setting it on fire.” So glad the smoke was only coming from the chimney! I wonder if the porcupines were trying to keep their teeth filed and not actually eating the sheet rock? Hey, there you go, recycle that wood and have your coffee too. ❤
That's how I get rid of all my old trailers while I restore them. Slowly it all goes through the burn barrel. Next year I'll have a wood stove in the living room and then my old trailer wood will supply that. I've remodeled older and more screwed up houses David. This will be fun. Time consuming but fun.
Oh my! I'm so horrified, it is like it was built from all the scraps. By someone who had the mindset 'i have no clue but I'll do it anyway'. Good luck!
A man that takes his own advice. Be radical. I love your attitude. 60 years ago someone did the same. Built a cabin in the woods with re purposed throw away stuff, and enjoyed just being in nature. Ultimate recycle. You see potential, some see . . .work. A good four letter word. I admire you.
Yeah, although there's also value to the experience of the renovation and the revenue from the videos. Dragging in a modular home would make one video, while gutting and putting back together the existing building could easily result in a dozen videos.
@@rallysport4207 no matter what you do it's going to cost money. Going out to buy a box of nails costs money. What matters is what you end up with for the money though.
@@1pcfred I can pay for nails and boards out of pocket or refurbish old things torn down and spend less money… given the choice between rebuilding and buying new I’ll rebuild anyday. Less money out means less time I have to work my tail off to make someone else rich… but I respect your opinion
So happy to see you back at this place, I know you’re going to have this place very special and livable. Continue your journey with this one I can’t wait to see the finished home. Happy holidays to you and your wife!
Be Radical....Mary makes a list of what is acceptable! Thanks for the inspiration during this season on our rock...so many things seem to be pushing and pulling my in head space...I feel the only balance will be to just get outside. Thank you again. Your knowlege has been a tool that empowers and inspires!
I know when it’s finished it will look great. You always do good work Dave. The cabin definitely has potential. Can’t wait to see the progress. Take care buddy.
hi Dave cant wait to watch as you change this place from a mess to a beautiful comfortable place to stay... please keep us informed by your videos, thanks!
Not telling you what to do, because I am by far much dumber than the average person, but you might want to look into the lights that the Amish use in their homes. Apparently they churn out some warmth and it could offer you some warmth and light and flexibility on moving that light/heat to different areas of the house in case you need to block off the main heat space. Thank you and your family for sharing your journeys.
I can’t wait to see what you do with it. I fell in love with the boomerang coffee table you found inside. When Belle opened the coffee shop, I was hoping the table would end up being used by her.😊
I know it will take some time, but I can't wait forthe finished product. Looking forward to the next installment! Merry Christmas to you, Brooke, Mick and Belle!!!
Great to see you on again,enjoyed the video. Lots of work on that house. I really like the lights you put in. I might put those in my garage. Like seeing ur old Ford truck. I even like the large wood stove,good idea on burning the stuff in the house. You always have good ideas!
I did the same thing about 30 years ago. I bought an old house, gutted 1/2 and lived in the other. I built a barrel stove and used it to heat the house with the house! I love them barrel stoves!
I can't even finish watching this. All you are missing is my 2 big dogs and 4 cats. Thanks Dave! Those cheap Harbor Freight lights are so good I only use half of them in my garage. And I am one of the most radical guys I can be.
Great segment Dave. I really enjoyed your modifications on the stove and comments about the chimney.....had to laugh. its going to be fun watching you go through that place. hope you can find some good bones in there someplace. thanks for sharing.
Oh my goodness, Light a match! 😂. Your plan is ingenious. I can’t wait to see where this build goes. Whatever it is I know it will be great!
That was my thought. Just torch it and start over. But I know he's not going to give up a challenge.
That place is really borderline between fixing and bulldozing. Good luck Dave!
No doubt for me. I'd flatten it and start a fresh.
@TribbleDude It might damage the dozer.😉
Clearly leaning over onto bulldoze....
"Or it'll burn down and that will also solve my problems"😂
I am enjoying you renovate? This old house. It is nice to see someone who is willing to put the time and energy into it. Good luck
Nothing says warm and cozy like a bit of smoke curling from a chimney. I can’t wait to see how this whole process goes - I’m here for all of it! ❤😊
Yes, especially when you don't have a good section of a wall. Warm, cozy and breezy.
I too spend time alone with my bad decisions.
That aluminium is an old roller shutter, I used to work on them and I recognise them, you'll get a good price for them down at the scrap yard.
Was looking for this comment.
Yeah it looks like a disaster but she’s got good bones! You and Brooke are gonna have lots of content material outta this one! Thanks for taking us on the journey!
I loved this video Dave, I hope we will get a lot of updates on this project over the winter.
you and your family are the right people for this tremendous project. mercy, the previous owners and four legged tenants had some interesting ingenuity.... looking forward to watching you rebuild this cabin. i imagine it's gonna become a great place. continued blessings.🕊
It's ventilated too! That got me.
I'm not sure whether you are a genius or crazy but your attitude is admirable. Reminds me of the song Me and Bobby McGee- "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose". And then you light the stove.
Good thing the chimney works. At least one thing you don't have to fix and can use to keep a fire going while you work on it this winter. Good Luck.
I bet someone Frankensteined this thing together using leftovers of other construction projects
Exactly, that "baseboard" looks awfully like turn of the century door and window casing
That's what it looks like.
O boy....I've been looking forward to seeing some progress on that.....mess!!!??? Wow, there's alot to be fixed!! That wood burner you made is so cool...genius!! And, I used the word genius before you said it!!!😂😂😂
Enjoyed this one more than I can remember any other . . .
Love the Private Property Notice.
Merry Christmas to all.❤
Cabin in the Woods will not be creepy when you finish with it ! Awesome woods and your new stove ! Looking forward to the renovations .
I’ve been chomping on the bit to see you guys get to work on this absolute unit of a cabin. Good luck and stay safe, look forward to future videos
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is gonna be one heck of a project, here for it! Cheers bud!
Looking Forward to all the progress you are going to make! 😊
I thought it burned down after seeing the thumbnail.
Probably woulda been the best thing 😂
Same
Same
I thought that too.😅
This is great can't wait to see what you do with this property.
YUP, WE ARE ALL HERE FOR IT. NICE TO SEE THE FAMILY. THEY SHOULD ALL BE FILMING AS WELL, KINDA LIKE THAT WOOD-STOVE. EVERYBODY BENEFITS!
you dont have to type in all caps
@@NyetNyetNyet APOLOGIES, BUT MAYBE I DO
I am so looking forward to this rebuild. Your attitude toward a big task is great. I wish I had that type of attitude toward my little projects. Thank You !!!!
I am so excited to see you finally starting this project. It looks like they used whatever they had available and combined it with everything else.
have not watched for a while but do look forward to watching you work on this place. God bless
You are amazing, Dave. Love your videos, so I'm glad you have a new project we can watch you conquer. Stay safe, warm and God bless.
I always thought it was so cool to see an old cabin in the woods and seeing the smoke coming out the top. Looks so cool
This one is definitely a good candidate for seeing smoke coming out of the top...and the walls...and....
@scottsatterthwaite4073 absolutely lol or the entire thing is a burn pile

Nice 👌. Going to be a good series sir. Glad your son is home for Christmas. God bless
What a large project. I'm looking forward to updates and the final cabin. All the best to you and your family . Blessings.
Nice to see this project up & running. Looking forward to updates throughout the entire rebuild!
Oh sweet jebus...... what a mess 😂 bet the owner was glad to sell that.
Been watching this old cabin from the start, can’t wait to see the next video(s). Keep em coming!👍🏻

If you're gonna rough it, you might as well be comfortable! Looking forward to this remodel. Thanks Dave!
Wow, it is a mess!!! Can't wait for the next episode. Been looking forward to seeing what you do with the property from the beginning. 😊
Wow, great project! Take your time and make awesome videos. This will be an interesting series of videos. Thank you beforehand for all of them.
I hope you and Brooke are well, Dave!
Watching the progress, Dave. God bless.
I'm glad to see you're finally getting some time to work on it. I can't wait to see it done but I know not any more than you. 😃

Keep it coming! I love this cabin project!
Micky has your hands!
Looking forward to watching this gem shine!
A plus about the place is all the firewood INSIDE the place
Holy cow……. Ewwwwwwww !! Stay safe and warm!!!!! God’s Blessings!!
Super pumped for the new renovation project. Greetings from Germany!

Loved this video. I am very excited to follow this project.
Very good, been waiting to see the work on this cabin. I will be watching ….. Great beginnings👍🏼
Glad to see you back
Any time I see this cabin I get excited, it's a good one and hopefully can be made into something amazing
Oh my! I'm so horrified, it is like it was built from all the scraps. By someone who had the mindset 'i have no clue but I'll do it anyway'. Good luck!
Hope there's enough to save. Thanks for posting.

LOL at the stove solving your problems either way
I’ve been waiting for you to get back to this cabin.
That aluminium is the kind used for roll-up doors.
Love your videos! Thanks for the new one. 🙏
I have been so looking forward to this video! Woo hoo! Can’t wait to see the progress! It’s a monumental mess! So excited to watch the transformation.
I've done the same trying to cheap out, in the long run its alot less headache just do the demo ,clear the lot and drag in a modular
I was thinking the same thing...
Lol put yourself into debt up to your eyeballs…. Yea no thanks…
Yeah, although there's also value to the experience of the renovation and the revenue from the videos. Dragging in a modular home would make one video, while gutting and putting back together the existing building could easily result in a dozen videos.

The aluminum looks like overhead doors from a factory. We have a bunch where i work.
That aluminium looks like security shutter, the kind you use to secure a shop front overnight, that's been taken apart and then nailed on as siding.
Oh wow!!! Hope you take us along for the complete renovation. Looking forward to seeing all of this.❤
Oh yeah, I'll be here watching 👀 can't wait to see what you do with it 😀
I am looking forward to the continuation of this series!
Wow, what a project. May have been a good.candidate. for.complete demolition and rebuild.
I've been itchin' to see y'all get the ball rollin' on this project. Love it!
Great to see this property and project again. I enjoy the straightforward methodical approach you take!
So happy to see you back at this place, I know you’re going to have this place very special and livable. Continue your journey with this one I can’t wait to see the finished home. Happy holidays to you and your wife!
Looking forward to seeing your progress!
Wow! That thing is actually radical!
good luck with the project. will be tuning in to see the progress. Blessings to you and your family this season and year
I would have rather listened to the silence with you...looking forward to watching this redo...thanks for your time!
I hope you can get the foundation leveled so that a restoration is even feasible. Another great video, Dave!
Love the heating the cabin from the cabin!

Just picked up a bunch of braun lights from the black Friday sale. Super bright!
It will be great to watch and see where this project goes Dave. Have fun!
hi Dave cant wait to watch as you change this place from a mess to a beautiful comfortable place to stay... please keep us informed by your videos, thanks!
Great guitar playing. You've stepped it up several notches!
All the best from Sweden!

Great video!! GENIUS 😂 work smarter not harder 💪🏻 🙏🏻✌🏻
We make it look doable even easy. But also amazing, love watching your process!
I can’t wait to see what you do with it. I fell in love with the boomerang coffee table you found inside. When Belle opened the coffee shop, I was hoping the table would end up being used by her.😊
Since you bought this cabin and property I have enjoyed all the video's you have made here, good luck on the teardown and evaluation. 👍👍
I know it will take some time, but I can't wait forthe finished product. Looking forward to the next installment! Merry Christmas to you, Brooke, Mick and Belle!!!

As a newbie to this channel, I must say, what a project. Hope you can salvage the main structure as you go along.

The metal on the sides looks like it's from a garage roller door
