  • I will be expanding the log cabin, to add the bathroom and sauna after deciding that doing it inside the current structure would take the much needed space for other important things. Myself and a friend, some know him from previous videos, peeled all 12 logs in just one day. This idea randomly came to our mind when we started early in the morning around 7:00 and we continued with peeling until 3:00 in the morning next day. I was getting to the limit with the last logs, but somehow we made it.
    Thank you for watching!

    Hello from Arkansas USA! just wanted to let you know how much we enjoy your videos and miss you when you don't put one out regular. We worry that something might be wrong. We understand you have a life and it is more important than You Tube and patiently wait for the next one. I also wanted to say how impressed we are at all of the old school skills you have demonstrated in the building of your cabin. it is really impressive of how tightly your logs fit together! Thanks again for bringing some joy into our lives and the beautiful shots of your part of the world that you live in. we enjoy those, almost as much as watching you work on the cabin. :) blessings to you and all of your family.

    These videos are some of the best content on RUclips. I am thrilled to get to see this cabin being built from tall standing trees in the forest, to a place where a family can call home. Thank you for sharing these with us Nik!

    The joke goes that a friend will help you move, but a good friend will help you move a body. I guess a GREAT friend will help you peel logs for 20 hours straight!
    Glad to see you back!

    Wow, hard work!! Congratulations on getting 12 logs done in one go of it!!! I bet your arms and hands and backs were very tired and sore after all of that lifting and debarking! So good to get a video from you. I very much enjoy seeing your progress and great ideas in the making. That was great seeing you plant more trees on the hillside. All the best to you. Peace and Good Fortune and Good Health to you and your family and friends. :)

    My father used to make lacrosse sticks and he would steam bend the hickory and then work them with draw knives, I loved helping and watching. To hear your drawknife peeling off the bark takes me back to the early 70s when I was a young girl.

    Hey Nik, great to see you back. The last video I think...been along time, was just before winter of 2020. You got the roof on and the front door and then disappeared. Many where anticipating that you'd continuing working in the winter. Then when you didn't, we wondered if you and your family were ok; still nothing.
    Then just before winter...or close to it, you reappear in 2021 to do some log cleaning.
    Great to see you, hope you're family is well. Look forward to watching whats next on the cabin. Maybe the front porch...the front balcony...or even the flooring of the first and second floor.
    I do remember the tree stub that you managed to put on the first floor for a table or ?
    Maybe also the construction of a stone fireplace and the stone chimmey through the roof...
    Anticipating all of those projects, your fantastic camera work of nature accompanied by that wonderful jazz!!!

    Nik I've been following you from the start when you were dragging logs in to age and so you could de-bark them. I'm logger here in the USA and we built our own log Home, Garage, Workshop, Barn and several other buildings and I have to say watching you has been a lot of fun. By the time I would get suggestions or help typed out to send you someone would beat me to it or you would have figured it out for yourself.
    My Wife and I built ours with our kids help and it's truly been a family project to make our family home. We have over 200 acres that's surrounded by National Forest that belongs to the Wife kids and myself, both our children will build their own homes here someday we hope....but if not that's good too they can always come "HOME"
