Maybe you should use one of them 10 ' × 10 ' folding tents to use your power tools out in the moisture. Safer for your tools and you . What if the breaker doesn't trip fast enough ? Could use a few of them rocks you've got to hold the tent down.
Al, I would like to point out a safety issue for you. While watching you use that table saw, it made me nervous seeing the drawstring hanging down from your hoodie sweatshirt. It only takes one time; and I know you wont think it will happen, but if that drawstring falls down into the saw and pulls you into it... Anyway, I would not want anything bad to happen to you. I know sometimes we get so focused on getting work done, we don't focus on potential safety. I remember the nail gun going into your hip. Everyone, please be safe. Happy New Year to you all.
It looked like some water collected on the top of the outside faucet where the push rod enters the pipe and froze. Put your bucket over the top of the handle. It may get worse if you have a freezing rain.
Good morning Lumnah Acres, them windows look brilliant with that trim around them. Ladies how do you expect Al to to all his work if you keep making all these biscuits and cakes he’ll end up putting 30lbs on, and no one could blame him as they all looked absolutely divine.
very satisfying video with its snippets of kittens, pups, cookie baking, and all of Al's hard work; climbing stairs, cutting, sawing, etc., not to mention the trips to Homie Depot! etc. thanks and many blessings to your family and all of your friends on the channel. So Cal!
We are your neighbors over in Pike, NH and our power was out through the whole time-frame of this video! It went out around 630 AM on the warm rainy day and came on around 6 PM on the super cold day. Pretty jealous that you didn't even know about all the disruption outside your little homestead haven. We were alright with our woodstove and I had filled the stock tanks when I saw the power flickering, but I would give a lot to have your systems in place. You're on the right track and we're rooting for you!
Al, you should get a small storage container for a portable shop. If you used a 10 or 12' container set on wood skids you could move it as needed and have it wired for lights and outlets for a generator or extension cord. I would go crazy without a shop space.
From the small amount I saw of Pluto.......... he is looking old, not moving as well........... PLEASE give him a HUGE HUG from me. I miss seeing him on the vlogs....... He is one special dog!
Al, you need to teach your wife or daughter to do carpentry as a backup for when you lose a thumb or fingers from not using push sticks or fence guards or any other table saw safety practices. You might get by for a long time without a kickback or slip, but I have two very experienced carpenter friends who have lose the last joint on a thumb or part or all of a finger pushing boards with their hands without a push stick.
The shots with Figaro playing with Al, so cute. Then you top off all that cuteness with the little ones, just precious. Good catch on those moments Gina. Your photography is the best. Al, you are a regular circus performer doing those windows over the stairs. No wonder Gina went and baked some cookies with Olivia. Y'all stay warm and have a Blessed day.
Every window has a view of the white trunks of the birches at the edge of the wooded areas. Beautiful sight for all 4 seasons. Also love your triptych windows. Always love the animal cameos!
@Lumnah Acres I see you’re taking care of business for your two ladies. Great work on the windows! Painting the trim white is going to make it pop. That beautiful wife of yours is a treasure.
Need a portable carport Al, put it of the green house doors. It will give you a extension of the green house to do cutting and projects without getting the green house dirty..
I’m a finish carpenter who also has well north of 100 staircases and your staircase needs to have at least 1.25 inches of overhang on the finished stairs. Walking up is not a trip hazard. But coming down the wider step gives you more to step on. This is also a national building code requirement. YOU NEVER FALL going up. GOING DOWN is very dangerous .
Why didn't you make the bottom of the window frames at least three or four inches wider or deeper than you need it if you're putting house plants on that.?
Good Morning from Brazil. Enjoyed the video of trim work, baking cookies and sweets, as well as the cold outside getting the chickens back in the pen, and the plans of the garden, green house, and pole barn. have a great day.
Least you're back in the kitchen cooking that's what we like too we missed you cooking in the kitchen at the end of the the video have a great day have a holiday
I wish I had half of your carpentry skills Al! Your windows look so good! Gina when you and Olivia were dipping the cookies, were you using mint chocolate?
Al your finish work is so nice. You really are skilled. Love how you join the frames with screws before putting the framing up instead of nailing the pieces up separately, just makes it look more finished. Gina those cookies!
Figaro seems to be taking the responsibility of overseeing the expanded Lumnah Northern Kingdom very well. My Figaro Coffee mug is one of my prized possessions. ☕️ 🐈⬛️ 😻
That tree line across the meadow from the front door is a great focal point for looking outside. Regarding the unfinished stairs, because you have a concrete floor, the sound echoes. When finishing the stairs, a sound absorbent material should be considered. Gina is definitely going to town with those cookies. You don't need store bought when you have home cooking.
It is nice to have the entire window trimmed out with wood. Down South, the builders skimp and trim the inside side of the windows with sheetrock. I look forward to the coming year's farm expansion. I've always wondered if they were going to move the greenhouse or get another one. I still don't know since they did say.
The people that buy the old homestead have a say if they want to keep the greenhouse or not. If they don't want it then Al was going to move it up to the OGP.
to speed things up with the drop saw, once you cut and confirm the first, you can use it as a template for the rest. or if you have the dropsaw support table, you can make a stop at the desired size. then you just place the wood slide it to the stop and cut. i used to even make a stop out of scrap to speed up the cuts while keeping the accuracy.
Y'all are my favorite RUclips channel. Hands down! I love watching Al work and I have learned so much about building. The OGP is looking fabulous! Well done!
Now that right there shows you that you should have a verandah on your building to give you a dry area prior entry to door, usual its around 2 - 4 metres by the width of the building.
@ 19:52 The image through the window looks like a painting. Very nice. Nice to see the inclusion of saying grace at dinner time. PS Triple windows look great from my house. 800ish miles takes care of a lot of not quites. Take care, BE safe and stay warm.
Expanding the land is going to be nice. We are in the process of building a new homestead as well. We are squeaking by slow. We put the well and on grid electric in the year before last. Then this past year started on a small shed. We are clearing the land by ourselves as we can. One day home to build a house that will be a few years though. You all are what I call warp speed mode compared to us. Good luck on your adventures. Thanks for sharing. Take care, see ya :)
Morning Lumnah family. With each project being done, being able to see it done is another box ticked off. Everything looking so nice. Being able to do indoor projects while raining helps you get the most of the work done about the same time. Also exciting about the expanding property for more usage for more animals. Best life ever. Stay warm and safe.
Al a combination square makes a great layout for reveal of especially set at 3/8" set up lay square in corner and scratch marks on well trim with pin thats comes in tool .very precise method
Rain Tarp on PVC stand for working the saws in the rain. Easy to rig up. PVC is slipped together and taken apart easily. If you ever go to a convention center exhibit when venders set up...they use PVC pipe dividers and backdrops and etc. that are easy to breakdown and load up for away to the next show. So you rain tarp could do the same.
Those 3 windows above the stairs are my favorite. I just love the look. I know Gina gets nervous when you work up high, great job AL. Giina and Olivia those cookies look yummy.
Just a tip when measuring between to lines, line up one side with the one inch line on the tape measure and then subtract one from what you get at the other end. It's much easier to match your pencil line to the line on the tape then trying to get the hook on the end of the tape in the exact right place.
Al I learnt a trick years ago when decorating around my stairs, set your ladder up the opposite way so they are slopping to the left, then put two scaffolding boards across at the height you want and then put a small set of steps on the right side, hey presto a working platform that cant fall down the stairs.
Greetings and blessings to you all over at Random Rocks (aka Lumnah Acres 2.0). You have such great taste! The white trim against the black windows and pale grey walls looks really beautiful! … and those chocolate dipped cookies! I want one! 😂😂 Wishing you all the best from the New Forest in southern England.
Being a frost tender human, I wouldn’t make it for long in all that cold but it is beautiful. Your trim looks great! Those little things always make such a big difference. ❤
You both done a fantastic job on your place I love how you done the windows they are very pretty very neat and clean looking that's the way we done ours but I done mine with 100-year-old wood that we got out of an old house it is beautiful so that's how we done ours but the cookies that you and your daughter was making Gina they look fantastic and I hope you will have a very blessed and a very Merry Christmas and a very blessed new years can't wait till you get started on your barn love you guys take care hope to see you in your next video and God bless you
Hi Al and Gina. Is Al doing ok? You seemed very quiet and not your perky self when you were cutting the trim. Be encouraged in the Lord. You are both a blessing from the Lord to each other. Happy and blessed new year to Lumnah Acres. :)
Trimming is such a rewarding and unrewarding activity: trimming a window or door is completing the “picture”, As you go through the process, you go through the steps in completing the picture, with each step bringing you closer to the finish, until you complete the last step. Then it is finished and shows how it should have been all along: no one sees the effort you have put into task when the job is done. Al and Gina, it just looks fabulous, finished, perfect!
happy new year. Windows looks good with those frames, so nice. Love the viuw from upstairs. Those kittens have grown very fast and allready catching mice I could see
Figaro feels safe inside the house. Given time he will probably venture out more and more but why would he want to with those lovely warm floors. Cats are very adaptable they just like to take their own good time to sort thing out.
We would buy ten foot long 1 1/2 Schedule 60 to bend up for a green house, that south wall of yours would be perfect to use a half of a green house all along that side it would open up with the garage door too, you could start plants and do those more messy chores without being reliant on the weather. We'd always bend the center pipe in half and the edge would be either four and six or in half,
8:31 was a boo boo, but it was edited out. Will is perfect!
Good carpentry, great baking, chickens busting loose, and the cats took center stage with their cuteness and antics. It's all good!
and Al said : I like it !!!!! :-) :-) :-)
Maybe you should use one of them 10 ' × 10 ' folding tents to use your power tools out in the moisture.
Safer for your tools and you . What if the breaker doesn't trip fast enough ?
Could use a few of them rocks you've got to hold the tent down.
Hey Al, may want to use a push bar for running material past the table saw blade. Had me cringing here in Cape Breton!!!
Definitely don’t want to take a chance cutting of a finger or two!
Al, I would like to point out a safety issue for you. While watching you use that table saw, it made me nervous seeing the drawstring hanging down from your hoodie sweatshirt.

Our strictly indoor cat has had a very productive winter so far. He always brings the dead mice for us to see
The "barn cats" in the house are adorable and make it apparent that you don't own them, they own you! Good safety with the ladder on the stairs.
It looked like some water collected on the top of the outside faucet where the push rod enters the pipe and froze. Put your bucket over the top of the handle. It may get worse if you have a freezing rain.

The windows turned out beautiful
"Cats and Dogs" ... Should be Snowin' ... And good Mornin' to you all. !
Al, you should get a small storage container for a portable shop. If you used a 10 or 12' container set on wood skids you could move it as needed and have it wired for lights and outlets for a generator or extension cord. I would go crazy without a shop space.
I like the results of the casings! I love the cookies Gina and Olivia made! Sorry Al!

A pole barn is just what you need with all the machinery and attachments you have. Can’t wait to see that project. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe
@Lumnah Acres I see you’re taking care of business for your two ladies. Great work on the windows! Painting the trim white is going to make it pop. That beautiful wife of yours is a treasure.
I think they decided to paint all the trim the wall color, classic gray.
Need a portable carport Al, put it of the green house doors. It will give you a extension of the green house to do cutting and projects without getting the green house dirty..
great idea !!! :-)
I love your window trim. And Gina's right, the black windows with the light trim, makes them pop. They're simple, clean, and classic, love them.
Looking good nice job. Love the Barn kittens LOL

Great carpentry work Al
Great job baking ladies
Looks great Al & Gina, nice to see the whole family again!
You should do an episode on your chickens too. How are they doing? Do they ever have any losses? Daily egg count?
All that trim work is looking so good. ❤️👍
Good Morning Al and Gina 🌞☺️
Howdy Liz! Wishing you well!
I wish I had half of your carpentry skills Al! Your windows look so good! Gina when you and Olivia were dipping the cookies, were you using mint chocolate?
Finally The Trim. Looks so much better. I love it.
Bit by bit, it is all coming together so nicely, Al.

Wow Figaro, you are a good sized boy! Mine was the same way... you start play time there's no going back to pet time...lol!

We would buy ten foot long 1 1/2 Schedule 60 to bend up for a green house, that south wall of yours would be perfect to use a half of a green house all along that side it would open up with the garage door too, you could start plants and do those more messy chores without being reliant on the weather. We'd always bend the center pipe in half and the edge would be either four and six or in half,
