    Genius! It is a great fix for winter weather, and it solves the need for this year's Arctic entry!

    This was a fun one! You hit a goldmine with this property with all the things left behind to save you from buying what you need.

    Another great video that should help a lot keep the snow in the wind away. You guys did good. Thank you for sharing.❤

    I’m sure you paid for it all but buying a place as remote as you have with all those wonderful tools and machines and stuff like that is just incredible
    Talk about aman’s playground!
    The individual started that up many years ago, knew what he was doing, and actually took quite good care of all his equipment.
    What a gold mine of tools and stuff for self-sufficiency.
    It’s like Christmas every day lol

    That place is a gold mine, youve uncovered so many useful items and great spaces! I know youve put alot into I as well, but its like a treasure hunt out of there for us watching! Love the clear plastic porch covering, awesome idea! Lots of hard work but youve always have the biggest smiles at the end!👍✨

    I think the clear roofing up on the porch is going to be a great addition. And the carport is a great addition after cleaning it out. Good job.

    Loved all the work you got done and some fantastic repurposing of items you have on hand. Would be fun to sit out with coffee or hot chocolate in the mornings now that you have the clear sheets in place to make it warmer to sit out there. Coming along nicely!!!

    Hope you kept those old windows, knock up some cold frames and you'll be able to start your vegetables extra early: the first one I ever had was made with old floor planks and an old window. So, seeds grown in the porch then planted out into a cold frame, luxury for the table.

    If you guys have a leaf blower, it's a great tool to get rid of small dustings of snow. I live in Ontario (Canada) and use mine to clear my patio and my car 🙂

    That door from the lean-to might work for an entry door for your now enclosed porch

    • @susannbeard4331
      @susannbeard4331 5 часов назад

      My exact thoughts. It’s is full view glass so it will allow all the light in and not block those beautiful views.

  • @MoePoe777

    I like the way you used the clear corrugated panels for siding. I took a screenshot to show to my son. They have a nice porch but it would be much more pleasant in the winter with clear side panels.
    It would be easy to remove them for the summer.
    It has so be so satisfying to gain more covered space through cleaning out and organizing the sheds and carport.

    Nice job. Hiding stuff for the winter. Don’t forget to put some sea foam in that rider so it will start in the spring. Or a bottle of heat. A bottle of heat in all the vehicles. Gas stations all have water in their fuel.

    I love watching your videos as you accomplish important tasks to make life easier and to protect for the weather. Very satisfying! Thanks! p.s. suggestion: put the clear roofing panels across the top part of your carport walls for further protection there, while retaining the light.

  • @cyndydickson5841

    The Alaska carved out steel that you found is made by a lot of different people up there. When I lived there I had a friend who made those. They are actually made out of pieces of the pipeline. So it's really neat to have one of those. I hope you find a nice place to display it, even if it is outside or on the new Arctic entry. By the way, that turned out fantastic. You guys did a great job. You are really moving ahead in the cleanup. It's looking great! Use the bench top to make a bench for your new Arctic entry so you can sit on it to take your boots off and store underneath.

    Your porch is now almost a greenhouse! Up against the house it will stay a little bit warmer. I bet in the spring you can move seed trays & starts out there to start hardening the plants off. Great idea putting the clear panels on the porch. ❤

    Maybe you can use that wood framed glass door under the carport at the bottom of your staircase to make an entrance at the top of the stairs

  • @yvonnelucas-cessna4458

    I would take some more of that clear siding and attach it to the back part of the carport so the snow won't come inside. Also I would take that bench and put it up there in the top where you put the siding on, so you guys can sit there and put your shoes and boots on. And in the evening time y'all could just sit out there. If you want to you can close the entryway up at the steps and put that door there.

    I seriously like the clear roofing material on the side. You will really enjoy your greenhouse work there. All you need are some tables. I'm thinking of narrow wooden ones with shelves on the bottom. Just a suggestion.

    When the weather warms, you should cut "bird blocks" for the end of the rafters and fill in the ends. that will prevent birds and insects from creating a home between the plywood and the rafters. Nice fix for the winter.

    think it worked out great with the clear panel, wouldent bother taking it down in the summer, just keep it like that all year round and you can have plants there in the summer which will have a bit of geenhouse effect

    @richardtaylor5258 6 часов назад +1

    Get rid of wd40!!! The absolute worst thing you can use to loosen rusty parts! Get spray lithium grease or if you must starting fluid. Starting fluid has a built in lubricant. Wd40 may work for a day, but it attracts moisture and makes your rust problem a lot worse. Love your channel

    • @lifelearner47
      @lifelearner47 6 часов назад +1

      I used to restore old wooden sailing boats. If metal parts needed 'loosening up' we'd drop them into a bucket with coca cola. Not sure if pepsi works the same.

    After being all snuggly warm in the house at night, are Lucy and Gypsy getting aklemated to the extremely cold weather if they go outside with Dad or Mom in the morning?

  • @mikeoz8198

    Wondering if that pocket created by putting that plywood up there will make a good spot for a nest/home for some critter? Since they could still access from the outside.

    The porch looks good. But wouldn't it have been better to put the overlapping pieces on the outside rather than on the inside? That way, any water that blows onto it will not run into the crack and come inside.
