Hay good place to find rubber places that sell truck stop tubes for there big tires are motorcycle shop are bike shop just for next time if you need rubber place looks good
It's a grreat feeeling to do something like this and keep coming with new ideas and finding new solutions, isn't it? I built my own little cabin in 3 months and I don't know how I managed it:))) It was nice to watch you doing mainly the same things. Thanks.
The Tyvek will help the water drain down and out. It's really good at that. :-) It won't prevent condensation from forming on the metal, though. That's caused by temperature differences, and Tyvek has no insulation properties. I really enjoyed watching this video. Thank you!
good job Phil! Is your background in construction? I plan to start building something within next 2 years. I have the least amount of construction experience and this helps explain things! :)
Hello! I watched primarily to see what you used as "rubber flashing" between the swing wall and the roof! I had to laugh when you said you couldn't find it anywhere because I'm in the same boat. How did the material you used hold up? What exactly did you use?
Hah. Yeah, I walked up and down the roofing aisles at Lowes and couldn't find it. I finally found these rain gutter leaf covers that were long and pretty flexible. It seems to be working just fine so far, but it's only been a few weeks. There's gotta be something better; I was just short on time and that's the best thing I could find.
I used Deek Diedricsen's design. Although I don't think it had a detail with angles for the top joint. I laid the wood out on a flat area in the way it would be installed and marked the cuts. It wasn't very scientific or perfectly accurate, but it worked ok for me.
@@philbrown5722 I'm also new to framing. Around 1:20 into this video when you were securing the 'A' frames to the floor, I couldn't tell what you were doing. Did you have some sort of metal plate to attach the two?
@@mattwalker534 No, no plate. I just screwed them down to the underlying floor joist. The whole structure gains a lot of strength when the walls are added. It's a bit like nailing studs to the lower board in a regular house--not the strongest joint, but is fine once the walls are attached. And most of the force is down-force anyway.

I"m glad you're filming this! I'm building the same thing as a playhouse for my kids and it's very helpful to see it coming together. Great job!
Thanks! I had fun building it. I hope your playhouse works out!

@@aarondavis5535 Pond liner is what I usually recommend to people now- pretty easy to find.... even secondhand.....
I LOVE YOUR TONGUE & GROOVE BOARDS!! I wish I had some of those laying around !! It looks great !!!
Great Videos! I really want to try this. I purchased plans some time ago. You just motivated me, after seeing you carry that fromt wall!
Cutting the corners off is very satisfying
Yes! It was very satisfying for me also.
Where did you get the plans for the cabin? Great videos i enjoyed it. Thabk you.
I'm going to be building this in just a few weeks... thank you for the run through! Enjoying this series!
Glad you're enjoying the series. Good luck on your build!
Great videos Phil! Looking forward to part 3
Thanks! Working on it. Hopefully this week.

Good Job man..Looking good!
greetings from Brazil. Nice work and very good ideas. I've already noted some for my personal project.

Well, down and out is good enough for me! Thanks for the input!
Good job love it!
Man this is amazing! I love it!
Tell me how does it work on winter because of the rain. I would like to build something like this in Los Andes
nice job
Saludos cordiales desde el país mapuche libre 😎😋🍂🍃🐾🚵♂️🚲🇵🇸🌈🚣♀️🤗🥶💚🌋🌎🏞...

Great !
I would have used pine qood for the awning door so it won't be so heavy
whats the height of the door side
what degree angle are you cutting the top and bottom of the frames???
Good question. I ended up laying the framing members out flat on the ground and marking the cuts that way.
Hay a good place to find rubber truck stop or motorcycle shop or bike shop
What camera are you using to film this? Thx!
I'm using a Gopro 7 black.

How about a tractor tire inner tube? A large enough one you could cut to size.
@@daddyeeoo Yeah, that would probably work great (didn't have one readily available though..)
@@philbrown5722 You can use simple cuts of EPDM roofing....
Or most pond liner materials.....
How to...area scale ? thank...
Where is this? Looks so tropical!
Not exactly; Pacific Northwest. Near Seattle.
@@philbrown5722 incredible! Did you build it to rent?
I am new to framing .what are the angles for the roof rafter join? do you have any templates or measurements

@@philbrown5722 gotcha. thanks phil!!
@@philbrown5722 The plans do actually show the angles. Thanks for the shout out too- cabin came out great
where did you get your plans for your cabin can you send me the adress to order a copy of them?

Plum line
Not a fan of the music though
Safety first? Kids and dogs should not be in the potential drop zone on a construction site. Seriously not worth the risk.
Great progress, though!
