I'm Building This Cabin Porch on my Off Grid Land & Building the Main Log House | EP14

  • Hello my dear friends🙂
    I decided to build a covered front porch on the small cabin so that I can have a place where I can have a table and where I can eat or sharpen tools, etc. Since the roof is bigger, now I will also collect more rainwater, which I currently use mainly for watering the paulownia trees - the world's fastest growing trees which I planted in episode 12. I bring drinking water in canisters so I don't drink the rainwater. I haven't done much work on the main cabin lately. I was a little sick so I didn't work for a few days, but at least I had a good rest after a few weeks/months of hard work. I still have to finish 4 rows of logs on the main log cabin. That's a total of 16 logs for the walls. Before I put in the last logs I have to cut out the openings for the windows and doors.
    I'm really looking forward to getting the walls done and starting the roof and I can't wait to share it with you! Thank you all for the positive comments. I appreciate it very much. I would also appreciate a lot if you can support my channel by subscribing!

    ===============================
    More about me:
    When I was 20 years old, I dropped out of college and said to myself that I will do what I really want and what I see meaning in. So I decided to build my dream log cabin, all by myself, in the middle of an off-grid bush.
    After I left school, I went to work for a while to earn money for trees and hand tools. I spent all the money I earned and my savings on it. Thank God, I already owned the land I have - I got it from my dear parents as a gift a few years ago and later I also bought another big part of the land with my own money. So this property is mine, I'm alone on it and completely off grid. There is no water or electricity connection.
    I chose a log cabin for my home because I like it. I build it with the vision of living a simple and peaceful life in it. Having time is more important to me than having money. Of course, nowadays a person cannot live without money, but I would like to live in such a way that my expenses are not so high and thus reduce the need for money. I want to have time not only for myself, but also for my future wife and children. That's why I will try to build the most self-sufficient life possible, in which my own housing, in my case a log cabin, will be the heart of this system.
    I use hand tools because they are my favorite. There is beauty in simplicity.
    Working with hand tools has several advantages: You are able to work off-grid, the entire set of tools you need can fit in one bag, there is better safety when you work alone, you don´t make too much noise when you´re working... so I enjoy it more and I believe you will too, while watching :)
    Sometimes you will still see me use power tools for some things where I can't avoid it completely, such as drilling through metal roofing or welding, but otherwise I will always try to use primarily hand tools.
    My dear father is a carpenter. I remember that most of the things he taught me while working with wood were precisely while working with hand tools, which required the most attention and practice from me.
    My father taught me how to work with wood from a young age, but I have no experience with building a log cabin, so I'm learning everything as I go, and I'm looking forward to what this experience will teach me.
    It may not seem like it, but it was a big struggle to get this opportunity to be able to work on my dream, but I finally did it and for that I am incredibly grateful. I also started this RUclips channel where I share my entire journey, so if you are interested, you can check it out. There is no one behind the camera, so I do all the filming and editing myself. I would also be very grateful if you would support my journey by subscribing or sharing, if you want to.
    Thank you for being here, I really appreciate it and I'm glad you're watching. I will try to make videos as best as I can, so that you get the greatest enjoyment from them.
    Thank you all for your attention. Enjoy!

      Grazie Carissimo Matteo di questo video.. ero così incantata che non mi ero accorta che era finito 😢 È tutta una bellezza ed una grazia.. il tuo aspetto (sembri un angelo 😇)e le tue costruzioni.. volevo chiedere nella casa grande.. tutti i tronchi sono scavati a metà per combaciare? Non perdono di durata nel tempo e non indeboliscono le pareti? Comunque è tutto molto bello da vedere e da ammirare con il tuo impegno. Ultima domanda non le metti le ringhiere ai due lati e di fronte nell'atrio della casetta? È più bella e riservata.. sia se mangi là e per la notte se dormi là.. poi anche per allontanare eventuali animali.. Al prossimo video 👋 ❤

    I liked that you worked on a few small projects that you were able to finish before working on the Big cabin and seeing it's gradual progress. I'd like to see you sharpen that saw, and maintain all those wonderful traditional tools as a mini project which will ultimately help you with the other projects.

The level of your craftsmanship is amazing for someone so young as I have said before hats off to your father. If possible maybe you could have him cameo in one of your vids would like some feedback on your thoughts on this. Stay safe young man and keep on grinding.

There are times when I wish I were your age (knowing what I know now.) so I could do projects like what you're doing now. Keep up the good work, I'm certain I'm not the only one who can't wait to see your project completed!

    I too built a bunk house that I could stay in whilst I build my log cabin. Mine is 4 feet wide by 6 foot long. So the size of one OSB board. On that I built a 6 x 6 screened in porch where I cook, read, eat and relax in out of the bugs.
    I also found if you leave every other course of the logs longer than the other than it acts like a built in scaffolding to help scribe the outside of the logs.
