We're building infrastructure to accomodate future growth such as barns, duck house, 7 coop chicken house, water hydrants, planting an orchard, building a garden etc. Chickens, ducks, geese, mini pigs, rabbits, a bunch of barn cats and two old english sheepdogs make up our team here at the farm. Please follow along on our journey of transforming this place into something special.
May GOD always protect you from harm and danger as you do your projects. 🙏
Good morning.
You skills and tenacity are remarkable! A very good job this morning!
Aww thanks 🙏
Just great Chad! Great use of your excavator- Love seeing progression tying everything together.😊
No way this could be done without that excavator so it’s been essential. Next video you’ll see it come together.
Amazing. All by yourself. Wow!
😀
Wow! God bless your heart Chad!! Just remember your not alone. God is working with you.
It looks good!! 😊
Give thanks!!
Sending love and support from Florida 🌺✨✨✨
As always I’m so impressed by the things you build and work you get done!
Thank you! Cheers!
I love watching I'm 81 years young
YES!!! 👏
I dont know how you do this by yourself. You never cease to amaze me.
Please be careful. Give Olive a hug for me. Precious, sweet puppy.😊😊😊😊
I astonish myself sometimes 😁
@@HiddenSpringFarm 😊😊😊😊
Lord have mercy. May The Lord keep you safe. You have my prayers. Be safe and God Bless.
🙏
Hello from PEI. Bravo to you
👋
You are amazing ❤😊. Loved the video 😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
You're the best!
Looks fabulous 😊
Nice! Thnx
I love watching your videos of you building structures. I'm doing alot of structural building at my house too by myself. Just like you, I love doing it by myself!!!!
@@TheJohnsonCountryLiving yup we just take it step by step and git er done 😉
@HiddenSpringFarm I find it easier to just do it by myself than to sit and explain to someone else what I want done or what I'm doing!
Great job! Love how Olive likes to be with you!
That’s really just how she is. She’s my bodyguard and is always by my side but still smart enough to stay away when I’m using the big equipment.
What’s first cabins for income or house for home keep the good work love the farm xx
It probably wont be our home until the mortgage is paid cause that’ll be a huge project both in scope and cost. I could build a tiny house for rent probably for a few thousand dollars especially since I can make most of my own lumber now.
Morning Chad. PLEASE be careful with this project. You have mad skills but safety first.
Always 😉
Great job. Thanks for sharing. God bless you and your Darling. 🙋🏻♀️❤️🇺🇸
Thank you! You too!
I have never in my life seen someone do this type of work flying solo. Wow. You are doing good. Just be safe.
That’s how I roll, just imagine how many favours I’d have to cash in for someone to come out and help me every time. As long as I know my limits I’ll be fine 😉
@@HiddenSpringFarm You are a very unique person.
Love Ya Chad........however, working around lumber & over your head, you really need a HARD HAT to protect the ol' noggin's ! PLEASE❤
@@sherylbartlett3871 I hear ya, I do wear a hard hat when I’m falling trees in the woods cause there’s chance of branches falling. Most building I do around the farm has little to no overhead dangers, but I’m weary. Appreciate the comment as always 😁
Great job.
Thank you! Cheers!
Its looking great! ❤❤😊
Thank you! Cheers!
Chad, that was absolutely insane! Just happy you didn't hurt yourself, that is some seriously dangerous work. Stay safe bud, we need you for some more video...lol, and most importantly, your Darling needs you. Have a blessed day!
💪
You should use a clamp to hold the braces in place until you get them screwed in.
Oh yeah I never thought of that.
Good morning Chad and Ms. Olive. Good job. Oh how I love Ms. Olive. She is my fav dog. I could watch her for hours. She sure loves you. Until the next time, have a fun week. God Bless you and your family.
Oh, Chad, you should be wearing some sort of back brace when lifting that heavy lumber.
Have a good week
👋🇨🇦
It’s hard to work alone, thumb up to you!
you can also clamp a 2x on the back side of your post so the beam cannot fall off when you set it.
I'm glad you got everything accomplished that you want3d. Great job
Yup it’ll really come together in the next few episodes 😉
Blimey Chad..dont be so hard on yourself! YOU did all that on your own..Well done..pat yourself on the back☺️
Haha I haven’t heard the word blimey in ages
AMAZING, you make all other contractors hide
@@ceciliapreziose3783 😂
Great job! I am watching you work with beams and excavator WITH Olive close by. My imagination is going wild imagining seeing a beam fall on her , break her back and.... PLEASE LEAVE her at home when you are by yourself before tragedy hits again. We would all be devastated. Love the farm. CAN YOU AN EPISODE MAYDE WITH LITTLE GUESTS to what we can do on stay at the farm?
Don’t worry Olive is safe while I’m working with the equipment. She’ not staying around the excavator when in use. Even when I’m falling trees in the forest she’s tied up.
Yes enjoyed video…🙏❤️🙏👍👍👍great progress all by yourself…
So glad!
I do enjoy this sawmill structure series, but I find myself holding my breath most of the way through...😄. You're doing an awesome job. Keep being safe! 🙏
@@carlapierle8623 it’ll really take shape in the next few episodes. Thnx for the comment 😃
Even though I knew in advance that you must have gotten the beams placed correctly, it still was a real NAIL-BITER!!!
😁
I’ll tell ya Chad, you do great work. BUT! You sure do make me nervous. You may like working alone but have you thought of reaching out for help. If not just for safety reasons. You might be able to muscle beams today, but I’ll tell ya from experience, one injury can ruin your day or life. Watching that beam fall. damn! 😮
Just what if. I sure hope never.
I’m nervous too sometimes but lifting the beams I’m inside the excavator so there’s no danger there. I suppose I could hurt myself Lifting the posts but I wouldn’t push myself to the max as even I have limits. Although an accident could happen at any time I at least lessen the risk. Appreciate the comment 😉
👍👍😎
Impressed!!! Check at home depot, or a Lowes? There is a plastic level, that attaches to a post with a rubber elastic, it goes around the post, they can be used with metal or wood, on the inside they have magnets for metal, I have used these for metal fencing and wooden posts, they make leveling a post quite easy, especially when the post is in concrete. Great job, never give up!!!
I know exactly what you’re talking about out I have one of those levels. I actually used it on the first post I did but I think mine is broken or off cause the post wasn’t plumb at all so I just stopped using it.
Sorry it’s been so busy on the farm we haven’t got to watch any of the sawmill series. We’ll have to play catch up! I really like the way you work; safe, precise and efficient! Not to mention your projects always look fantastic and that’s the truth!
Are those pine or hardwood that you’re working with? I think I’d fill that little gap with a shim or something to keep the bugs out. Just a thought.
Summer is a busy time for everyone, no worries. All this wood I’ve been milling is either maple, oak or poplar so all hardwoods. This mill will be such a great investment in the long run.
I am in awe!!! Your a one-man building machine!! I was on edge watching the measuring tape telling it not to bend. You really have a knowledge of how to build things and so savvy smart & quite ingenious. You and your cute wife are now one of my favorites. As are all the animals !
@@Patty-n9k aww thanks so much for the kind words 😁
Omg this video was so cool to watch, was very nervous watching when the last beam went up, but you had this all along.. so cool 😻
It was a thriller eh, glad you enjoyed it 😁
So excited to finally see the long beam placed! Great job!!😊
@@1970j it was an accomplishment that’s for sure 😀
Awesome.
I cannot believe you managed to put up those beams all by yourself!! You are one smart cookie!!
@@maggiemaysgrace me too, I feel so proud
Farming ingenuity. I know it wasn't , but you made it look easy.
It’s true the videos always make it look easy. Truthfully it’s dozens and dozens of hours of work, filming & editing. It’s nice of you to notice 😁
A long day of hard work. Olive is looking at you and giving you moral support.
She supports me in every thing I do 😉
Thx
I can't believe you do all this solo. I sure hope Olive is nowhere near when the logs are being placed up high.
Oh yes of course, Olive actually fears the excavator which is good. As soon as I start it up she leaves.
Wow, ang galing nyo po! 👏🏼 Keep up the awesome work 👍🏼
Oh maraming salamat eh.
Great progress Chad. Good on you for doing it by yourself. Thank you for sharing. Thoughts and Prayers. Love and Blessings.

I love doing this stuff. It’s like a cool hobby but the result is that I built a farm. Fun times.
@@HiddenSpringFarm 👍
Plum…. I have only heard you and one other person say that when using a level to make sure things are level and square… come to think of it, he is from way up north too, the upper peninsula of Michigan … down here in the "south" we say "square." The first time I heard this guy say "plum" I couldn't figure out what the heck he was talking about… but he kept saying it and it dawned on me that he must mean "square." So, I’m guessing that "plum" is a northern thing…
Square means the corners are 90 degrees, level is horizontal level and plumb is vertical level 😉
@@HiddenSpringFarm level and square is what we say… I literally have never heard "plum" until I started watching a bushcrafter named Dave Whipple on his channel, BushRadical… he builds cabins and sheds and all sorts of things on properties he buys up there in the upper peninsula of Michigan and he has properties in Alaska as well…. I honestly thought the whole "plum" thing was a northern saying since you are up there in Ottawa and he is in upper Michigan…. But hey, you "learned me" something new!! Where did "plum" come from anyway? I mean, I hear "plum" and I’m looking for fruit! lol
Perkins Builder Brothers also use "plumb" when😢 they're building and they're in North Carolina I think
It's getting there Chad. Next year your be building your next farm stay. I think a modern style tree house. Be fab. Xxc
My plan is to mill lumber all winter so I’ll have it ready for the next project 😁
Wow so impressive 🤗 You are always so busy building something. Seems like you are in your happy place when you are creating a structure 😊My head hurts just knowing how long it took you to put this video together 😳Trying to build and video takes double the amount time...🫤
Yeah I love this stuff. Of course it’s countless hours but as long as I plan out the videos in advance I can stay on my schedule 😉
