In this weeks episode I install my new chimney and finalize one of my biggest projects so far. the cabin is starting to feel more like a home as the rising spring temperatures slowly start to open up the lake.
Hi Dan love your channel and love watching your family channel too have seen all of them, after watching your videos on the bike I just bought a 2024 BMW F 800 GS adventure bike . I haven’t been riding for fifty years but starting over again so thanks guy
Hi there, So glad you are enjoying the channel. Congrats on getting the bike, maybe I'll see you out there on the trail one day.
Helping hands make merry work. The warmth and comfort of a wood stove comforts a soul. Your cabin is so charming
Thank you! I agree!
Great work! Looking forward to your next project. Thanks for taking us along
glad you have a wood stove now thank you for sharing and i can see your are real happy in your cabin 🔥👍👍👍
Great video!
Thanks!
Fantastic job...teamwork. It's so cozy I can almost feel the warmth of cuddling with Lando by the stove and reading a book or watching an ol' black and white western. Yes, you do have much to be grateful for and it's inspiring that you recognize your blessings. You have been raised well my friend.
Ohhh that is so nice, with the stove in and fire going, it looks so cozy and homey! I hope you stay there, make that your little home, fix it up just for you, and enjoy cabin/home life. What a wonderful place to be, I hope you realize just how lucky you are to have that. I look forward to many more videos of you at your little cabin....and maybe you cooking up some yummy meals.
Thanks! I’m planning on it! I will definitely do some cooking later on. 👍🏻
I’m so happy for you. The stove is spectacular . We take the convenience of heat for granted until you see a young man striving to be self reliant. Awesome work and looking forward to future videos . 🙏👏🏽💪🏽
Loved this! There’s nothing like a good wood burning stove…
You got that right!
Nothing better than the warmth of a fire to make the soul feel good! Love your content as well as the families…
Thanks you! I’m glad your enjoying it!
Wonderful video and it’s heartwarming watching you complete that firebox and get heat back as you have done such a fantastic job of it. I love your GSP as we have just lost one identical to yours at only 9years and lots of tears were shed as they are such beautiful dogs.
I’m sorry for your loss, they are beautiful and amazing dogs! It is great to have heat in the cabin and I’m really excited to see how it all turns out in the end.
Nice job Dan! I've never seen that project done before, and I learned a lot. Much to consider and respect. Charming little cabin! God continue to bless you and your family!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
Nice job Dan, it’s good to watch you grow along the way! Just to let you know, that to clean the fireplace glass you can use some ash with water and some newspaper as a glass cleaner!
Thanks and Thanks for the tip!
Hi Dan, get yourself a nice old kettle to keep on top of the stove to boil water. It’ll put moisture in the air as well as hot water for tea,coffee and hot chocolate, oh, soup too. Great job! Someone else mentioned adding a flew dampener on the pipe. You will be able to regulate the fire so as to save wood and adjust temperature.
Great idea thanks!
For someone that never set up a wood stove and chimney you sure did a great job that was nice of your dad to help. You cabin looks so nice and cozy ❤you look so relaxed reading your book 📕 picture perfect until your next video stay warm stay comfy and like always god bless you my friend 🙏❤️✌🏼
Thanks will do!
Dan,in addition now you can cook on top of the stove. Placing a window with a screen would be nice to help cool the cabin in the summer months. Work is never done, nice job. Love to Lando
Thanks for the ideas! I will definitely do that!
Good to go!!❤
Great job! Things are really coming along there. Looking forward to watching your progress!
Cool more cabin time… I always enjoy with my morning coffee.
now its a lot better for you , and now you can relax and enjoy the cabin great job
I love watching your videos. Keep them up. Thank you
Thank you! Will do!
It's always wonderful to see a young man so self-sufficient 😊 I'm sure your parents are very proud, they raised you and your siblings right! Congrats on accomplishing a major project that helps make cabin life much more comfortable AND enjoyable!
You need a damper to retain heat in the stove. It will keep the heat from going up and out of the chimney.
Thanks for the tip!
Really nice job on the stove. Radiant heat is a wonderful thing to thaw your bones. Enjoy!
It sure is! Thanks!
Am glad your room is warm now.
So am I!
Nice Job Dan.
Thanks!
Your doing so good with your cabin I love it ❤
Thank you!
Glad you have reliable heat source now
Thank you, so am I!
Just found your channel and am loving it so far, good job on the stove pipe.
I’m glad your enjoying it! Thanks!
Now you need to invest in a nice comfy recliner!!
Sounds good to me! 😂
Now you just need a leather lazy boy an area rug and a little kitchen and you’ve got your home!
Sounds good to me! 😂
I gather you cook on open fires or go to your parents for meals. Do you have a bathroom in your little cabin?? I love your videos; am a new subscriber so still catching up on past videos. Thanks for your good work on them.. Im from the southern USA.
I enjoy a lot of my mothers meals with the family but also do a lot of my own cooking on an open fire as well as a little two burner stove in my cabin. Right now I don’t have my own bathroom in the cabin but rely on an outhouse not to far from my cabin. 👍🏻
22:30 look at Hugh Heffner in his red robe 😂
I don’t know a lot about wood stoves, but the few I’ve used all had a damper in the pipe above the stove. It was pretty important to either close or turn the damper way down or it got much too hot during the night (& it caused the wood to burn longer). Why does yours not have a damper or is there a different method for controlling the oxygen flow on your stove?
😍😍👍👍👍👍
I was wondering are you restoring this for yourself or is this For the island
I am doing this for my self since this is where I sleep/work but any work done helps the island as well. 🤙🏻
❤️♥️💝❣️💜😇💙🤍💖
That wood shelves behind the woodstove looks like it's way to close to the stove and I don't see a flue damper!!??
Just saying.
Stay safe.
Thanks for pointing that out I’ll definitely add one!
Dan…you’re very committed. Years ago people did a lot of different things when installing stoves and chimneys with varying degrees of success. The codes were much different 50-75 years ago. One thing learned over the years was that the surrounding wood near a stove and pipe may not catch fire but over the years the constant heating of that wood lowered the temperature that the surrounding wood could become ignited by heat. I believe US, and probably Canada, codes ask that insulated pipe be used when passing through walls. The pipe never gets hot. Great stuff. And if you can go straight up that’s a plus. In 25 years I have never had a draft issue. It would be a great eventual upgrade.
Watching you in your chair I suggest that you get a small LED floor/reading lamp which will be very bright and using minimal electricity.
Great idea thanks!
A working stove is a much needed addition with the winter temperatures. I look forward to your coming adventures. It is okay to see you on EFRT also, you are a big part of that as well.👍👍🤟
Good job on the stove pipe, buddy and the stove. Lando looks like he really enjoys it. behind the stove I would actually put a sheet metal kind of like I cut out that moose and the bears that I sent you guys they come in by 3‘ x 4‘ then just slap one of those behind it. I actually have a couple of those that I put behind my grinding stand in the workshop so no sparks will get to the wood walls, You can pick them up at Home Depot ok 👌🏼🔥🤠🔥Camping Russ out
Thanks for this week’s video. Looking forward to the open water. Stay safe.
Thanks! So am I!
Always good to have a great working wood stove that is safe to use.
How about hot chocolate on the firestove 😊
Sounds like a good idea to me!
I love that you have the confidence to tackle a new job. I don’t know any more than you do about chimneys but I do have a question for you. Your one elbow pipe looks like it’s corrugated. I suspect if it’s like that on the inside that it will be a place where soot and creosote will collect on you. Is it possible or even necessary to switch it out for a smooth elbow pipe? I’m curious.
I love your cabin.smart you put the drop cloth down. Looks so cozy. Reading by the fire. Perfect.
Looks nice and cozy in the cabin with the stove! Nice job!
Thanks 👍
Do you have a damper?
I’m adding one soon!
Awesome!! Holding that heat down and the wood will coast longer for you, and a cast Iron fan you will be set! I was finishing my little stove about the same time. It made me Smile So big for you! We not an easy task! So proud of you, Dan. I have been a family fan for a long time know . I really enjoy watching you grow In your faith,knowledge of the great outdoors and adult hood May you be Blessed in all your ways🙏
Please take the white stickers off your pretty black stove and stove pipes!🤪
Will do! 😂
Nothing like the warmth of a fire right Dan! You look very contented in your cabin and what a spot to spend your time in ☺️
Good Job! So happy for you.
Thank you!
Nothing feels better than wood heat! In the future I would look into a proper install of your chimney. That single wall pipe won’t last outside and requires 18” clearance to combustibles. I’d look into some Class A chimney pipe and go straight up through the roof with a support box and flashing. It will draft much better and also be safe.
Will do! Thanks!
Nice job, Dan! I would have to clean off the stove window with a razor blade, add a damper, screw those joints together and maybe add fire board if the wood behind gets too hot. Perfect 🔥
That’s a good idea I’ll definitely add some sort of fire board soon!
As someone else commented, I believe the pipe is backwards. Smoke will leak at the joints. There should be a adapter flange at the stove to the pipe. You noticed when you took the top of the chimney off it was on the outside of the pipe. You put it on the inside of the pipe. Each pipe section should go over each other going up. It also will leak water down the pipe. It's kind of dangerous the way you have it. I'd keep a co2 detector handy while you are sleeping.
A job nicely done, Dan. Now you have a nice, warm cabin. I'm happy for you. Yes, you needed the extra help from your dad. There's no way you could've done it by youurself. Take care, dear heart. Until your next video.
Good job with the chimney
Thanks!
Your running the pipe backwards
