It's a good thing I ended up making that window template as I really did need it. My first attempt at re-framing the rough window openings didn't go very well, and I had to change it. I also now have someone who is going to help me transport the big windows out there, down the mountain, and into place. Phew! I really just want to get this done!
Because of this, I've yet again changed gears away from the wood stove surround and towards the windows. I also share a new idea I have about the wood stove and how to make it more efficient for the space.
I don't think I could have done all that work on the big cedar rafters without that nice little battery chainsaw, so that really concludes how much I'm loving that little thing!
Finally, finally, I clear the deck of all that stored lumber and have a short dance party to celebrate. Haha.
In a way, it's a little sad to think that I milled all that lumber, transported it out there and down the mountain (a lot of work!) and most of it won't get used for this cabin. BUT, I do still need to build a couple of more things there on the cliff, so I'm sure none of it will go to waste 😊
If I'm being completely honest, I am getting tired of this cabin build, and wanna start working on something else. I need something else to make me go crazy. Haha. But I'm just getting to the parts that I've been most looking forward to, and that's all the finishing work. I've had to endure over 2 years of building/doing the stuff I'm not good at in order to get to the part I actually care about. Anyone else feel like this about their projects?!? 🤪
But we all know its about the journey, not the destination.
Thanks for watching and see you in the next one!

That intro…tell me you’re a nurse without telling me you’re a nurse. 😂
👍🏻💯 That’s one of the first things they teach you lol
I doubt nursing students are taught to rub patient tummies the way she treated her furry kid. I imagine Steve is receiving world class care as he recovers as well.
Or a CNA
not a nurse
Great job, probably the dustiest of all. I really like the moment when you zip up the fly of your Levis jeans at 16:05 It's important to close it properly, so that dust doesn't get in. 😄
You are amazing woman ❤❤
Poor Dog LOL, the stuff we do for them and their comforts LOL. The view from that patio is awesome
It occurs to me eating the start of this, that your walk down to the cabin, as tough and time consuming it must be, must have included half a dozen stops, move the camera, go back up etc. Amazing dedication to your videos.
Maybe she has a half dozen cameras and does a lot of editing
@@jamesadams893 Could be. But I'm fairly sure she's mentioned before she has a 'good' camera, and a GoPro. It's something I've noticed in a lot of creators and thought about, since I'm planning outdoor content for my @fatoldclimber channel and realise I'll be having to do the same :)
Most of your radiant heat on the wall behind the stove is going to be on the face of the wall. Why not use a thermopile fan on the duct to A) extract heat from the flue and B) move the heat from the surface of the wall into the room. You could put two or three thermalpile fans on the flue and move heat all around the room. Thermopile fans work on heat differential and don't need batteries or electrical supply. The ones that mount directly to the flue are awesome and start working in minutes after you've started the fire in the box.
Read this after I posted my reply...lol
I've never heard of that but I like that idea..
there are also simple snap on "heat exchangers" that fit around the stove pipe and allow more air contact with hot metal.
I found if you use one of those free heat devices, it causes the flue to build up crud inside and may start a flue fire which is bad!!!
Million dollar view. Spectacular. Great work on the cabin. 🌲🌲🌲🌲
I use that 2 in 1 chain sharpener also. To get an accurate angle on your blades flip the sharpener over to where the orange angle of the sharpener seats up parallel against your bar and slowly draw it across the blade.
It’s made to not only sharpen the ‘cutter’ teeth but also file down the depth gauges all at one time.
I absolutely adore and admire you, you are so talented and beautiful, your eyes are so amazing 💐❤️🙂
I don't care what anyone says, I'm very impressed with all that You have done all by yourself on your little cabin on the cliff. Hope You and Steve are doing well. Be Safe and stay Strong.
It’s so funny when people say, “I don’t care what anyone says.” as if so, many people are just talking shit about her or something? Lol
That sheet changing seems like a nursing trick.
lol, looks like you ate lotsa tree on this part of the project! I hate cutting over head especially for that reason. My grandfather always told me the signs of a great carpenter was how well they could hide their mistakes.
You are in wonderful shape. I couldn’t imagine going down that slope to set a camera just to go back up to record myself coming down. If I was younger and did that maybe I wouldn’t be so sore and stiff today. Is Steve were to divorce you he would be a fool.
Your patience and tenacity always make me smile! 😊
Our family had a log cabin on Charlotte Lake, in the Chilcotin region of British Columbia, for 40 years. Dad had it built in 1972. My brother and I sold it to the brother of our next door neighbor in 2012. Just too far for us to get up there from Utah (me) and my late brother (Arkansas).
I very much enjoy watching your building progress. Reminds me of Ralph and I working together with our late father on projects, while mom prepared dinner on our cast iron wood/propane combination stove. Many fine memories. Of the four of us, I remain the only one left at the age of 68.
My brother was an RN, Nurse Practitioner and Physician's Assistant, specializing in pediatrics oncology. Ultimately, he taught nursing at the University of Arkansas in Little Rock, then retired. I know you're in the medical profession.
As for making mistakes fit, I'll quote an old carpenter I knew: "The difference between a good carpenter and a great one is that a great one knows how to hide his mistakes."
Best wishes on your building project!
0:30 Perfect nurse technics.Although I never saw a dog in a hospital bed 🙂
The size of your wood stove is just right in my opinion. It's perfect. And when you go to sleep, just add a large log and dampen down the intake vent as much as yiu can. In the morning just open up the vent and add another log. It should work just fine..
The glimpse of your door makes me inspired and ashamed at the same time as I am sketching doors for my shed build!😊
Hi M, regarding the stove, consider putting some reflective material behind the stove (corrugated roofing). That should help distribute the heat a bit. Also a passive stove fan might help.
Beautiful and clever
Hello nurse Michelle. As always your video is fun and great. The cement board is a heat shield. It blocks the heat from coming in contact with a potential flammable surface. Heat rises. Having the stove on the floor won't change that. You need to circulate air. Fans are your answer. Stove fans, cieling fans, portable fans whatever will make a difference. Best is to push it down from the cieling. I do have a bit of concern on the sturdiness of your stove shelf. The thought of a fire in the stove and the stove falling down is a kinda worrisome. To me, that shelf would be strong enough to sit on. If your stove pipes are insulated they don't need to have a heat shield behind them. Your stove does though. And the shelf does too. Move the cement board down please. The view, your eyes, you....all amazing! Huge respect. Great work!
It is all insulated pipe, but I like the look of a surround that makes a statement, not just a small portion - so imma gonna continue with the height.
Fans it is!
I am not done with the structural work on the shelf, so we won’t worry about that just yet!
@@michygoss7148 All good. I can sleep at night now. LOL! Thanks.
Michelle, once the windows are in the build will take on a complete transformation. You're almost there. We're rooting for you. Thanks for Sharing!
Michelle, I think the idea of drawing heat off of the woodstove exhaust, and diverting it to the floor is a great idea. Obviously not straight out of the exaust though. Kind of like those fireplaces you see using the same idea.
Oh, yes... I hope Steve gets well soon. 🙏
Good attitude for dealing with mistakes...wait, scratch that. We'll call them revisions. Building a big shed right now myself, and I'm learning all sorts of things through those revisions.
I am always amazed by your energy level and stubbornness to get the job done. It makes me tired just watching you repeatedly climbing up and down to your windows. I am also always impressed how you approach problems with a “can do” attitude. You rock!!
Ok, you have to stop saying you're not a trained carpenter, you my dear have passed the test with that nose clearing shot!!
I never seen a girl look so good in Levi’s than you Michelle… You’re amazing 😊
Always enjoy your content, Michy. Loved the stop-motion deck party!
Thanks Michelle, for sharing. 🙋♂️🐈🐈
I love your relentlessness determination. You always get the job done and the finished product always turns out great. And as a bonus, this video was so jazzy. 😊
That hike down the mountain is something! Even more of a hike when you have to position your camera, walk towards and past it, then walk back to retrieve and reposition the camera for the next walk past further down! Makes it twice as far. It doesn’t go unnoticed Michy!
So so amazing, every aspect of this project.
I thought you were going to try the table cloth pull trick to remove your bed sheets 🫣
Were all going to have to have our drinks ready for the grand cabin opening party 🥂
Hi Mitch,
I hope your hubby is recovering well from his surgery.
Have you seen those fans that sit on top of wood stoves and turn on their own from the thermal heat rising off the stop of the stove. Take a look around, and see what you can find. Maybe you can mount them above the stove with a bracket that allows you to point them in a direction that is best for the moment. One other idea, on the cement board make a rock wall. As you know, rocks hold heat well. However, getting the rocks warm takes quite a bit of time and the idea may not be the right application if the woodstove will not be burning for long period of time. Eh, just an idea. Good luck,
Alan from NC
👋👋👋👋👋👋
"Here at Michygoss construction, we do it right because we do it twice."
Just giving you shit, kid. Glad you made the template.
While doing concrete form work, we remove material the same way. Lots of saw kerfs and then knock out the remnants with a hammer.
Outstanding snot rockets, BTW. Proud of you!
Edit: How's the Hubby's knee?
Michelle, place a heat powered fan on the stove, no power needed. Add a sheet of aluminum behind the wood stove to reflect the heat into the room. If you have a source for coal, use that after you have a good wood fire going. In any given area the coal fire will give off more heat than wood, and last longer.
LOL. Now I can clean my sheets without disturbing the master of the house.
You are an amazing woman in all that you do!
Guard those beautiful eyes. I once had a corneal abrasion that turned into a corneal ulcer. That was a miserable, long recovery time. My favorite project of yours is still the door of the cliffside shed. 😘
Scam, scam, fishing or whatever, most of us have had the experience and it's a pain to say the least. I enjoy your videos and good luck with your projects.👌
I think a ceiling fan will work with hot air circulation. Will also be way simpler.
Good job Michygoss!... keep swinging at it.... its all coming together....change things as you go....
The heat to the cement board will be very minimal. It will just be warm to the touch. But the rising heat at the peak is significant, and a fan thingy drawing heat to the floor will be a game changer and move heat all around significantly better.
A modest proposal. I've been sharpening chainsaws since 1970. When I sharpen a saw now, I always wear a heavy glove on my left hand (I'm right handed and file with my right hand) so I can move the chain without getting cut. When I can, I touch up my saw in a vice, although, in the woods, I have a nifty little "vice" that has two legs I can drive into the top of a stump to hold the saw steady. Bailey's Saw catalog has these little dudes.
Hot air rises, divorce, you guys are the super couple Steve is a very cool guy, you guys do some great stuff together.
Thanks, once again for another wonderful video, thank you for all you do to make us smile. You are a very wonderful person. I think the world would be better off, if more women like you were in it. Thanks once again, and I have a wonderful day and a wonderful week
love the roll the pup & remove the sheets.... : )
Michygoss, not only are you beautiful, I am amazed by your work ethic. YOU ARE A BAD ASS!! I did not know there were women as tough as you. My hat is off to you. I work in construction and would be honored to work with someone as awesome as you!
The roling of the pt so easy😊. You know Michele sawdust is nature's baby powder.
If you lower the concrete board down a little bit it will allow air behind it. It will cause a natural current everything it's heated, pulling the heat down could be an option. You have worked through the tough spots, so next is the windows. Have a good week and count your blessings amen.
Every builder has times when something has to be butchered in . But you sure are one determined woman.
No real comment on the stove venting . The stove i had was a large regency and had a built in fan. You have an inventive mind though .
As far as the wood stove, I’ve seen a lot of people build their campers, school buses and such, and they put their woodstove up high. They don’t really worry about it.
Good job on the window, it’s just what I would’ve done, I’m very stubborn and I’m gonna work on it till I get it done. No one is going to care when they’re laying in bed looking out the window.
Just the music with you walking down the hill is amazingly calming. Love all your content and always look forward to seeing your latest video 🙂
My Grandfather was an engineer and during his life time he built two cabins to live in as his primary home. The first cabin (single room) was constructed during the great depression , the second cabin (two bedroom two bath w/ kitchen and screened porch) was completed after WW2. Both cabins are wood heated and being in the northeast the weather gets cold. He incorporated a heat exchange using the flue exhaust .
I absolutely love watching your build , gives me ideas that at my age I probably should not have,
Most of the heat from that stove will be radiant heat, get a piece of aluminium checker plate or whatever pattern you like and put it behind the stove. Then the heat won't go into the back wall but be reflected away into the room. Think of it as a light, anything that the light hits gets warmed up ;)
Thanks for the laundry lesson Michele. Lol. Good work in the window opening. Knew you’d figure something out. Take care and stay safe!
Walking down,one hand for the boat on hand for you
Can always build a bunk bed in the warmest part of the cabin! ❤
on the computer fan thing... a ceiling fan is the best thing to get the heat back down to the floor. the stove top fans don't need power but they don't point down , so your cold floor will still be cold. instead of ducting and fans or holes through the studs, leave a gap the thickness of the studs between the top of the permabase and the top plate. the natural thermal circulation will pump the air up to the ceiling and the ceiling fan will push it down.
the best place for a wood stove is in a recess so the top of the stove is flush with the floor. you will always have warm floors with no effort. this is normally impractical sadly. put the stove on the floor or you will always have cold floors, or need ceiling fans.
I would list all the examples and reasons for these opinions, but this is the comment section not the life story section...
great channel, very pleasant watching
Had a good chuckle watching you trying to shake off the sawdust like your dogs would.
I learned it from them! 😆
"There was a palpable sense of liberation at 20:15 when the offending stored lumber was finally gone from her life." 8^) Like the sawdust bath look! Cheers.
hey, don't beat up on yourself, you're doing a great job.. that's why we have trim to trim away our mistakes...
Nothing is a big deal and redoing something doesn't reflect poorly or make one any less of a crafts person. Great job, just keep at it!
Simply a gorgeous view of the lake. Well done Michelle. Not only a competent nurse but a pretty decent carpenter as well.
I love the person that loves our dogs the way you do! My dog, Nina, salute you any man would be lucky to have your friendship
Well first off Steve would not divorce you. You are a very persistent lady. I think your idea of capturing the heat behind the stove is a good one.
I loved this one more than the last I think.
I like the fan idea. Circulation is key. I wish you could recover the chimney heat. 😊
Sawdust in the eyes is the BEST! 😉😂
Those nursing skills always come in handy. Even when doing laundry LOL
I love your independence and drive. My husband jokes that he’ll let me build a cabin like this someday. I think he believes that would keep me from remodeling our house all the time. He’s wrong, I’d just do both
😂😂
Finished with a bang, nice closing sequence!❤
The can do girl Michy, thank you for the wonderful distraction from current world events it's been a tragic week.
Wow! that view is incredibly beautiful, I'd give my world. Bless you guys.
My dogs usually get on it when I'm trying to make it. Nice job filming your hike down the hill.
Something I've done with wood stoves is to put pressed tin ceiling tiles* over the cement board that shields the wall. These are really nice looking, and are available in shiny finishes that will reflect heat very well.
* So-called "pressed tin ceiling tiles" -- they aren't really made of tin.
I really quite like that you make all kinds of mistakes and then manage to find your way round it all. In fact that is one of the best parts about the content you create. With you making mistakes we all get to learn a little and have a good laugh along the way. 😁
No drinking..at the deck party!
You should get a railroad potbelly stove for that corner. They are awesome....
Next cabin! 😁
Thank you for giving us a heads up about the scammers.
Hey Michelle, I just wanted to say that I think you do great work, and that I really admire your tenacity to push through & complete your projects. I really loved your choice of music in this vid also!
Hi Michy, re, your stove problem, I just bought an electric portable AC unit, £50, quite small, but it blows hot or cold, so it is also a heater, i think it must work on the same principle as a refrigerator, as no ice is required in summer, and the heat option is very warm.......Just another option to consider.........I'm a retired carpenter and joiner, and i had my own business for a few years, i wish i had 2 of you working for me, and i could have fired the other 6, you are so hard working.........Great video, take good care.
I know I've been enjoying this journey very much and will actually be a little bummed out when it's over but... I also look forward to your next adventure!
I WAS TOLD YEARS AGO BY A MASTER CRAFTSMAN WOODWORKER, “ A MASTER CRAFTSMAN IS NOT SOMEONE WHO NEVER MAKES MISTAKES, BUT CAN WORK AROUND A BOO BOO AND MAKE IT LOOK LIKE NOTHING IS WRONG OR WAS WRONG. YOU DO SO GOOD, AND WORKING AROUND ISSUES, SOLO TO BOOT. I’D CALL YOU A GREAT MASKER DIY’ER, KEEP IT UP.
GREG
People who love animals and dogs can be trusted and are themselves kind and well balanced you are a complete mensch good on ya
girl, you scare the shit out of me sometimes. Please be careful up there. Love watching you work.
I'm sure you have learned, just I have, humans are hard to trust. I have never had a dog lie to me! Yes! I would rather spend the rest of my life with a canine for a companion over a human. There are a few peeps that I have confidence, but my loyalty is with my dog (Dawg). Love what you do Michelle, especially your compassion for wildlife. Great plan on the cabin! like your heating concept. So...Thank you, for all you have done!
I can totally relate to dog comfort being priority number one. You rule. Thanks for the videos.
Just had an idea (few, and far between), make a bosun's chair for the mule so you can have a fun trip down the mountainside! 😅 ❤
Those windows are going to look beautiful can't wait to see them in😂😮😅😊
Your determination and creativity are amazing to watch. Major kudos! I have really enjoyed seeing the cabin come together.
They make fans that work on top of the fire place, heat activated 🎉
I would spray foam insulate that space between your cement board & the outer wall. Then i’d take the KISS approach for circulation, that would be 2 convection fans sitting on you stove top pointed at 45 degrees, one to the front , one to the back corner… Wah-lah problem solved, if you want more heat repeat with two more staggered cross blowing across you chimney pipe mounted on the cement board. Ya got it kid. Wilber & Margaret from the lower 48. ❤❤
He just knows how to get spoiled . Thats a good dogs job . I miss having a dog . The precious utility they offer just being .and in fellowship , comes security , there is no substitute
Genius idea with small fans circulating air in my opinion. Your determination is admirable to complete the windows .nothing to it ,but to do it. 😊easy to say when I’m not doing it.chainsaw for the win!! And thank you for the time and effort put into recording,editing,and publishing these videos
I love your work Michy. Keep doing what you want how you want. Your doing a great job and what ever you build looks great. And you look great building it🌺
You have to be cautious about creating horizontal heating lines. Carbon Monoxide is one of the byproducts of burning, and unless your horizontal system is airtight in high heat, you're probably better off using only a vertical chimney. That vertical flute will also radiate heat. Nice choice on the jazz music. If you haven't heard of Oliver Nelson, listen to his song "Stolen Moment". Total classic. All the bank members are exceptional.
I think I have just the same battery chain saw as you have, and I just love it. Its so incredible versatile.
Hi Lady,
I haven’t seen your videos since you went on vacation on a boat. The little cabin looks fantastic you’ve come a long way. You look like a cute little chipmunk all full of sawdust 😊. Gosh I miss you and your videos. Well now I’m back to watching you. Stay healthy and safe inside your body 😉🤙🏼
Tube down to the floor tee'd off to cover the whole edge of the floor and fan powered. And yes you're on to a great idea !
Your amazing in many ways. Thanks for the great videos . Also you and Steve is wonderful folks for the love for animals!
Calling on your inner billy goat skillz walking that trail.
The way you cut across grain every half inch and then chiseled out is exactly how an old world craftsman (think norm on new Yankee workshop) would do it. Your resourcefulness never fails to amaze me
