Jay, a little tip for when that pilot gunks up in the future: if you go to a smoke shop or drug store with pipe smoking supplies they will sell actual chenille pipe cleaners. Don’t get a craft store one, those are polyester and don’t work as well. The steel wire is there for that specific reason. You also can take a set of wire cutters and cut off the dirty portion and keep using the same cleaner for a long time.
Looking good Jay. You should consider flashing those upper windows when you put up the roof as they look like they'll be close to even with the roof at the bottom. This will potentially be a source of water penetration into the wall below the windows. If you could raise those windows to give you a 6" min space from the roof, that would be better.
Well he did mention in a past video, that one of those top windows was cracked due to settling from the structure and from having been placed in a too tight frame out with no room for shims, so this is a perfect excuse to get a new set of windows and add flashing clearance to the expansion.
I hope this doesnt sound too ridiculous but I just love watching your videos - especially in the winter when i am freezing my butt off in my flat - lol, and with the cost of living crisis and things getting tougher - self reliance , hard work and wisdom must overcome !! thanks Jay - love your content , you inspire me to get up and get stuff done !!
Oh man, the star of the show , PUFFY !!! The absolute cutest and he reminds my wife and I of our lab, same exact personality, huge love bunny !!! ❤ Great work Jay, keep it up 👍
You’re doing a great job with your addition Jay! When you were splitting all that kindling it reminded me of the old timer men I grew up around . They would spend what seemed to be days out at their spitting block getting their kindling ready for the following winter. They have like a cord of wood all made into kindling. Crazy but a very smart thing to do. I wish I would’ve paid more attention to the old guys. They were a wealth of knowledge.
We ❤ Puffy 😊!! As for the buddy heater, store it in warm truck and warm home. I’ve had mine for over a decade, and never had a problem. I think that’s because I keep it in a warm environment.
The biggest issue I see is the snow on the addition roof will pile up against the upper windows, as the snow melts you may get leakage around the upper windows. Looking good though.
Your addition is coming along nicely. And I love when you bring Puffy with you. He is such a cute little guy what’s. Great companion for you at the cabin.
Love your puppy! And yes, he is so cute and well trained. Keep learning from those who follow you on your channel, you are doing a fantastic job on your addition!
Jay those buddy heaters work amazing. I have the double burner and I use it in -35 weather to keep my bathroom warm when we are showering. If you’re having that much trouble, take it to retailer to have it exchanged for a new one.
Hope he sees this. I seem to remember he said it was a gift so it should be within warranty. Do you have to turn yours up full for the first wee while to get it going? Showing my age here but in the 70/80s we had to do that with a gas heater and wondered if maybe that’s the problem.
Hi Jay thank you for another interesting video. It is so nice to see a happy dog having such a great time. I am a dog person and just love how everyone of them have a personality and express joy and love to have fun.
Listen Jay don’t give up on that buddy heater! They r fantastic just leave it on the low setting and it will catch, you have to use it more, I heat my 24x24 garage with mine on the 30lb tank, does it no problem
The Buddy heaters work great once you get them going. I had that issue where the pilot would light on a big tank but go out when you put it on. My issue was that there was condensation in the line that froze. If you can bring the line in and thaw it for a little while, it will fix that issue. I know that's not ideal, because you are trying to use it for heat, but since you have the stove, thaw the line, then run the heater even though you have the stove going to get the line to clear out the water.
You’ll have less line loss with the huskier extension cord 👍 LONG small gauge extension wires throttles down the power a tiny bit… ALSO, it is a lot better for your generator if you warm up the whole thing, not just the spark plug.
I love the videos Jay awesome progress. You need a burn barrel outside that you can keep going when you’re working so you can go over and warm yourself up without going into the cabin.
Hi Jay, I've always enjoyed your videos but the last few featuring Puffy is even better, please say thanks to herself for letting him come along, summer project should be a bathouse/tub/sauna
Great video Jay. Looking forward to the finish product of the cabin. Buy your self a can of air to use next time on your buddy heater on your pilot light. Thats what I do for the one I use at my cabin.
Jay another great video love watching you explore new ways to build the addition and of course puffy is important too cant go a video without seeing the puppy
Hey jay you mite have an issue when you need to put your battens on for the roof. Looks like its going to be above your top windows. You will then put your roof sheets on plus flashing which will be well past the tops windows.
Looks great Jay God Bless you getting everything to work in such freezing temperatures. You wear that sweatshirt a lot that was donated to you it must really keep you warmer? Until next time stay safe!
Another great video! Puffy the magic Poodle! I can't tell who's having more fun. You are one rafter away from being roof-ready. The inside work should be warmer when you open up to the rest of the cabin.
Concerning your Q-Tip mishap, I like to have pipe cleaners around, they work well in many situations. Just a bag of them at the dollar store costs almost nothing.
A valid bit of advice for yourself jay, never let the tape measure slam closed like that, the hook has movement for allowances of measuring an internal measurement and an external measurement self adjusting, repetitively slamming this closed onto the hook wears is it out twice as quick.. it’s okay if you have the one tape measure and that’s it but if you start using two different ones they will start to measure differently when your in need of tight tolerances 😀
Sorry about your little heater. In my mind, I've renamed your dog...he is now "Speedy Gonzalez". Whenever I see him running, I think of the cartoon character. I know that you are getting excited about your roof. Everything seems to be going well. Till next time, take care, be safe and stay warm my friend.
cord flexibility is handy to move about BUT whats important is wire gauge! and real copper, not copper plated aluminum,. gotta luv those Robertson drive screws~~
I live in the UK, and I really dislike flat roofs. I used to have one on my house, and it cost me a small fortune to keep up with the repairs. Eventually, I switched to a pitched roof. I have a question: How do you plan to run a seal from your new roof to the old cabin? The seal needs to extend up the wall by about 4 inches, if not a little more. However, I notice that your upper windows are only just above the new roof. You might need to remove the windows altogether or opt for smaller ones. It's not a difficult task to accomplish. By the way, I love seeing your little dog running around and having fun in the snow! Keep up the good work!
That's the only way I see it working is by going with shorter windows. I'm a builder here south of the 49th. But I think in the cabin those really are only a clerestory style window because they're so high on the wall. I think I would probably opt for just a fixed frame window.
Only one question! How are you installing flashing where the new roof attached to below the window. I don’t believe that there is adequate room to do a proper job to eliminate water egress from rain and melting snow. Hopefully you have that covered
Hi Jay I was wondering if maybe you should have put up a vapour barrier before you attached the plywood to the frame of the extension and if you remove a bit of the plywood from above the windows on the inside of the cabin you might be able to remove the two windows ok this is only a suggestion for you and keep up the great work both on the cabin and your channel by the way I live in Wales in the UK
Jay. My buddy heater with the long hose takes forever to light. I mean holding the knob in for like 5 min. It works very well once you get it going. Lots of heat.
Greetings from Boston Jay. Are you Considering installing a small stove in your addition ?, Or maybe some sort of fan to move the warm air from main structor.
The extension is coming along nicely Jay, when it comes to removing the wall, are you taking the whole wall down or just creating a doorway into the new part?, tfs 🫶🏻 Julie 🇬🇧
I can see how you can get the plywood on for the roof. Maybe you can also get any roofing material under the windows. How are you going to do any flashing?
I'm not really worried about the slope, but what I am worried about is the distance between the roof and the windows above it. That should be bigger to prevent water from getting in when it's pouring or with wind blowing.
Jay get a “Trugg” and chop your splits / kindling into it, work smart not hard….ps, that first roof beam, once it fitted and you were happy, you should have used it as a template for the rest, no need to measure more than one then…time halved is time saved👍😜🇮🇲😉👌
What type of roof are you planning on using? You don't have enough pitch for shingles, probably some type of membrane roof would work. As always I enjoy your videos. Glad to see you doubled up the top plate as I mentioned in the last video.
I have a buddy heater, after leaving it on the floor in the summer, when starting it, I got a long yellow flame, I used the air blow gun and it fixed the problem :)

Puffy is becoming a star Jay.
Puffy is like a little pocket rocket, allways at full speed, love the little guy !!

Puffy seems to having the time of his life in the snow 😀🇨🇦
Gotta love Jay Sundays…and Wednesdays! I am truly invested in this channel…thank you for sharing your adventures!
the little dog is very sweet
Looking good !! Puffy's full blast runs make me smile every time😆
Love the videos Jay - keep er up buddy
I am loving the regularity of these videos, Jay! You're by far my favourite winter life RUclipsrs. Sending well wishes from the UK!
Awesome video. Yeah puffy

Great video. Love seeing Puffy. What a sweet happy pup. 😊
Puffy looks fine without a coat and boots on.
Thanks so much for bringing Puffy along! Can't wait for the next installment!
Oh man, the star of the show , PUFFY !!! The absolute cutest and he reminds my wife and I of our lab, same exact personality, huge love bunny !!! ❤
Great work Jay, keep it up 👍
Puffy is so awesome!! He’s perfect!

A man and his dog getting it done. Awesome Jay one step closer.😁
Don't forget the in line filter when using a "bulk" tank for your buddy heater...........very important!! Great video as always.
I need to go to sleep but Puffy’s here. I can wait a little longer.
Agreed!👍 🐶💙
I know right! I’m thinking the same thing!! 🤗
Love your attention to details and trying things you get from others. Fur baby is so sweet. Great video as is said short but sweet.
Love Puffy. Keep up the good work.
The thumbnail showing an overhead view of the cabin, with the rafters lined up... WOW!!
We ❤ Puffy 😊!! As for the buddy heater, store it in warm truck and warm home. I’ve had mine for over a decade, and never had a problem. I think that’s because I keep it in a warm environment.
It makes sense because in the frigid weather it will form condensation in the system and cause major problems
The biggest issue I see is the snow on the addition roof will pile up against the upper windows, as the snow melts you may get leakage around the upper windows. Looking good though.
Fluffy is THE cutest dog ever!,,
"P" uffy😊
Your addition is coming along nicely. And I love when you bring Puffy with you. He is such a cute little guy what’s. Great companion for you at the cabin.
What a great feeling it is to accomplish something yiu have never done before! Wonderful video Jay & Puffy!!
Love your puppy! And yes, he is so cute and well trained.
Keep learning from those who follow you on your channel, you are doing a fantastic job on your addition!
Another great video Jay & Puffy. Stay safe up on those iceroads. ❄️⛄☃️

So beautiful.
The
Lights are incredible. Puffy is growing. Just awesome videos. Keep learning and producing
Yes this energetic little boy is very cute! I’m happy for you!
Listen Jay don’t give up on that buddy heater! They r fantastic just leave it on the low setting and it will catch, you have to use it more, I heat my 24x24 garage with mine on the 30lb tank, does it no problem

Your building addition is looking good...
Ahh that puffy man i tells ya lol great addition to the show bro😊
You’ll have less line loss with the huskier extension cord 👍
LONG small gauge extension wires throttles down the power a tiny bit…
ALSO, it is a lot better for your generator if you warm up the whole thing, not just the spark plug.
Heating the spark plug is a awesome trick
Flash and seal those windows up there too. Water’s gonna pour into those openings otherwise.
I love the videos Jay awesome progress. You need a burn barrel outside that you can keep going when you’re working so you can go over and warm yourself up without going into the cabin.

Just had a cold snap in Thunder Bay, -39 with the wind chill, last week was rough! Here's hoping you keep warm Jay!
Puffy Shook his head No at the end of the video! He said it's too cold but you'll be back Dad. LOL 😂 It's a Great Video as always Jay👍
Nice job Jay! Your building skills have grown by leaps and bounds. Can’t wait for your next video.
Im not so worried about water run off as i am snow load. Its harder to remove the snow from a less steeply pitched roof
Looks great Jay God Bless you getting everything to work in such freezing temperatures. You wear that sweatshirt a lot that was donated to you it must really keep you warmer? Until next time stay safe!
Another great video! Puffy the magic Poodle! I can't tell who's having more fun. You are one rafter away from being roof-ready. The inside work should be warmer when you open up to the rest of the cabin.
Can you please show the warmth intervals in the cabin? It would have been so cool to see how fast the cabin warmed up from -30C.
Concerning your Q-Tip mishap, I like to have pipe cleaners around, they work well in many situations. Just a bag of them at the dollar store costs almost nothing.
Yeh! Jay! And Puffy!
You should have a kindling space like a wood shed - a dry spot where you can fill and store it.
Wow the roof rafters look amazing. Great job Jay. Learning alot along the way!
Oh my gosh Jay, you both are so cold 🥶
A valid bit of advice for yourself jay, never let the tape measure slam closed like that, the hook has movement for allowances of measuring an internal measurement and an external measurement self adjusting, repetitively slamming this closed onto the hook wears is it out twice as quick.. it’s okay if you have the one tape measure and that’s it but if you start using two different ones they will start to measure differently when your in need of tight tolerances 😀
Good ol' 🇨🇦 winter!! Thx Jay!
puffy is tooooo cute!
Puffy is joy❤
Wow, Jay!!! Soooo satisfying!!! Well done you!!!
Great job Jay , keep them coming 😊

Good job with the rafters. Glad you have warm clothes for the extreme cold.
Good lovely Sunday morning everyone!
Kind of cold here, minus 14.6 C
@@Duncangonefishin it’s -11 here in Bishops Falls NL
Great job on the addition..are you sure you haven't done all this stuff before? Amazing. Puffy is a delightful addition!
Look at that tail wagging! Somedoggy is super happy!
cord flexibility is handy to move about BUT whats important is wire gauge! and real copper, not copper plated aluminum,. gotta luv those Robertson drive screws~~
PUFFY has so much ENERGY in the SNOW 🐕

The happiest dog in the world.
Hey Jay great great channel. What bread is puffy. We’re looking at a new dog
Hi jay l look forward to seeing you and dog out in the cabin lt is Sunday afternoon here lt cold here but the sun out Joanne in Ireland
Great vid! $200 for a cord. Have mercy! It seems like everything is more expensive then ontario.
Only one question! How are you installing flashing where the new roof attached to below the window. I don’t believe that there is adequate room to do a proper job to eliminate water egress from rain and melting snow. Hopefully you have that covered

I have to turn down the volume because the sound of the crunch of the below freezing temperature makes my body shiver 🥶

You’re going to get snow build up on the roof that will push on those windows.
All so make sure the “crown” of your rafters is facing up. That is the bow of the rafter as eyeing down its length.
Good mornin 🖐😎👍
