  • Freezing at the off grid log cabin building the base and backsplash for the wood stove. Had to unhook the stove to build with no heat. Winter is coming at the off grid cabin and running out of time to get some last minute projects done. The old log cabin is really shaping up.

    Hi Bo, the new brick behind, on the side and below the Woodstove looks great. The contrast of the brick color and the darker colored stain looks great as well. Glad that you also got the Wood Cubby closed off by the door to block the cold. Nice way to end the video with a chat sitting by the warm Woodstove.

    Cabin is looking great, brother!! Stove looks much better in the new spot! Sitting in that rocker, in front of that window, next to that woodstove is what that cabin is supposed to be all about! A little work, a little rest,! God bless you and your family! Peace ✌️

    Hey Bo - The Bricks turned out looking extremely good. Really gives a warm and comfy look to the whole wood stove area. I think I was going with the metal in the last video, but you have certainly changed my mind. This just looks like it belongs there. Thank you for sharing. Stay Warm - Kind Regards, Randy @ Coyote Sticks by WILEY, Arizona.

    • @offgridbo
      @offgridbo  10 месяцев назад +1

      My biggest reason behind it was for extra heat but I agree I think it looks better than the metal would have, hope you have a great thanksgiving bud

    I got seven cords of wood, both wood burning stoves and pipes cleaned, and now I gotta deal with a water well pump that's not working. Where I'm at probably isn't quite as cold as where you're at, but I'm at 6840 feet in the southern Sierra Nevada and I was snowed in for nineteen days last March and so I'm doing my best to be ready for whatever winter has in store this year! (I even purchased new snowshoes and skis!)

    Bo your wood door should not be opening towards the wood heater. Change the way it opens for two reasons one it you should have a little bit of drafted it’s going towards the heater and will be warmed up the two wood storage door should open away from the heater side so no one can get burned or the door gets to hot when it’s open. Just a few tips

    If your stove has a outside combustion air vent you should hook it up. It will keep the cabin way warmer. The stove won’t need to search for air at every crack and crevice in the windows and walls.

    Hey Bo-bro - super to see you again. You did a magnificent job with the bricks around the stove. Looks really good. The door on the woodstorage is also a very good idea. No cold air coming through there for now! Somehow it seems you are more into making your home a permanent home. I remember when you were still talking about and started working on a new cabin, further back in the woods. Remember those videos very clearly. But it seems to me that you let go of that idea and are fully focussing your energy on this place. And I think that is a good choice. It is a wonderful place, and you did so well on all of it. I hope you can feel at home there without feeling an urge to start something new else where again. Glad you are doing well! Take care brother. Greetings Jason PS Happy Thanksgiving (in advance)

    • @offgridbo

    You should construct a cabin facing south (and that's the most important side to have windows on), as that way you get the most free light and the most solar warmth (it makes a surprising difference). Have shutters on the windows on the outside and inside to help prevent heat-loss.
