Thank so much to everyone that helped me with the question I asked about the name of the rod I used, amazed by all the answers and different names from all around the world. I'm sure I will never ever again forget the name of it 😁
Of course your comment popped up after I sent mine. Like the work your doing. Haven't finished the video yet but if you haven't moved it you can drill a new hole and epoxy a new rod in
We call it threaded rod here in the UK, comes in different sizes but us pipe fitters use 10mm threaded rod and 12mm for heavier duty to hang pipes off a lot of guys just call it rod, have you got any 10mm rod mate?
Hi Nik . . . it is also the position at our end to be at a loss for the right words to thank you for this AMAZING gift you are giving us . Inspiration is huge and the escape into YOUR world sure fuels our enthusiasm to continue in our own direction. I'm so excited to watch the future videos !!
Faults bring you further. Don‘t be angry. In 2 months you‘ll laught about it. Why not now already. Thanks for making us part of it! Greetings from Switzerland
My Dad built a log cottage 80 years ago and it’s still very solid. He had a stone mason build a fire place with a mantle and stone chimney. The mason built a crib or box like you are building for your base. It was larger than the fireplace so he could put wood on it.. the fire place has a damper so you can adjust the air inflow and shut it. It’s made out of cut rocks and round granite rocks. The cottage is on and island and very secluded. There is also a 12’ deck around three sides of the cabin. One side of the deck has a roof so you can be out there in the rain. It ‘s like having another kitchen and living room outside. We were six children and spent our summers there. We had so many adventure on the lake and in the woods, we did’ want to go home in the fall. I really enjoy your channel and find it very relaxing to watch you progressing. I live in Ontario, Canada and am in my seventies. All the best.
Jean Philion Canada is beautiful. It’s hard to find secluded and affordable land now here in the states. I like to watch my self Reliance’s channel. He’s there in Canada and his cabin that he built is absolutely amazing. These guys are such an inspiration. I don’t have the best trees/wood to choose from here in high desert but I hope to Try and build my own some day, like the one you just described.
@@crackerjax4330 In reading your comment here I just have to say My Self Reliance is also one fantastic channel. When I found his channel I have been watching almost every day several episodes. These fellas are truly an inspiration to more people than they will ever realize.
Tennessee here, I love your build. I remember building my own log cabin in the 80's here when I lived on the Cumberland plateau. Nothing near the scale of your build but was one of the highlights of my life. It was just a 12'x24' hand hewed bull pine with a 12'x24' frame lumber addition with a barn style roof (2 story) making it 24'x24' total. I worked on it from daylight to 2:00 pm everyday and then I went to work in the coal mines from 2:00 until midnight and you remind me of a much younger me up until I lost an arm in the mines in 89. I'm 64 now and wanted to thank you for all your hard work and sharing it with the world.
I am a 57 year old woman in Pennsylvania. Your videos inspire me! I've been wanting to build a house out of bamboo. Now I can't wait for the spring so that I can get started!
Threaded rod, All thread, Threaded stud . M8,M10 M12, All-Thread rod, Redibolt, Ready-bolt, Thread bar, Threaded stock, Thread Full Length..take your pick Nik!! Hey, didn't say this was going to be easy. ;-) Bwahahaha. Great job Boet.
Hi Nik. This is second time i watch all your log cabin building videos. You are truly a hard working person with amazing skills. Fills me with joy everytime i watch you. I wish you all the best in life. You and your lovely family deserve it! Greeting from Chris in Denmark.
That threaded rod is called All Thread here in the US. I’d put a couple of 1/4”x2”x10” bar straps on it to keep it from pulling out. Drill a same diameter hole in the center and slip it over the all thread 6” from the bottom and 12” from that one. Or even weld some rebar would work. If you’ve already poured the add on concrete already, you’ll have to either epoxy the all thread in place or use a threaded hammer set anchor. If I had the money I’d love to fly out and give you a hand. You’re doing a great job by yourself pal!
This cabin build has been awesome and it's because of you, you are an honest and sincere man and it comes through in your videos. I believe the name of the steel rods you are using are called threaded rod. Thanks for sharing, can't wait for the next video
You are a man of great patience, to debark all of those logs and to build the nine foundations, so meticulous, I really look forward to your videos. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪
Its always good to see others dreams and Ideas come to be real. Not only is it just fun its a good thing to learn other ways of doing things then pass them on. Keep at it your making good progress for doing it by yourself.
Nik, that feeling of freedom from all the clothing is called SPRING man. everyone that comes from a cold climate feels that. Me I'm from central Florida so not so much for me except in my younger year( Michagan a bit colder).love the videos keep up the great work. I love the fact that you own up to your mistakes that is called being a man. You are a great role model in that regard. Mistakes make you stronger and wiser that is what I tell my son and I think it is starting to make some sense to him now. We watch your videos when they come out. Good on you man, keep it up and don't let any of them get you down. If only all young men had your work ethic.
Hi Nic, failures are human nature. The first house you build for your enemy, the second for your friend and the third is yours it is said. I have fully renovated my one and I know how much time and effort it takes. Great job. Wish that many guys only thinking and talking work for one month with you. They start to know what they are talking about then🤭
You are a remarkable young man -- watched your lastest videos and just found the newer clips -- you amaze me -- to do all this work on your own especially putting those huge, heavy logs on the roof was incredible. You are to be complimented, keep up your great work. What an incredible mind you have to take on this undertaking. Keep up with your good work, and your clips.
Nik, you are a great inspiration for all of us to unlock our creative thinking and step-by-step problem solving. Looking forward to your next episode. Thank you for sharing all that you do.
Great amazing one man job . A lot of guys make mistakes but they never mention them, I think you are the only honest guy on the media to admit mistake I ever watch . For one man job it's amazing and I am sure much much more better than 2 or 3 guys . By the way we call these rods in Australia steel threaded rods. Nice job mate
The foundation looks great Nik and thanks for sharing your experience on building the cabin. I watch a few other channels that build log cabins or in the process on building them just like you. My Self Reliance and The Outsider to name a couple and everyone has a unique/different building style. Really excited to watch as you build your dream cabin. Your an inspiration to people and a humble man that admits to making a mistake, that's how we learn. Keep the videos coming!!
patricia here--- hiya mr Nik! new subscriber here.... i am EPICALLY impresses with your work ethic ,drive and determination! not to mention your outlook on life. hubby and share alot of what you do tho now our health is poor and so i will will have an adventure watching your dream come to life!!! thank you!!!
Minute 25-ish, your lifting method sounds, if I understand properly, similar to what we call in the US a "Gin Pole." Most of them have pulley's but when I used to erect wind turbines we used them just as giant levers, no pulley. You can pull up a 100 foot wind turbine, and tower, with a 20 foot gin pole. Should work great as long as your cable anchors hold. Great idea. Can't wait to see it work.
Awesome Nik!! It's funny you thank us all for watching and we thank you very much for making these edits so that we can watch! You are a massive inspiration. I'm busy building a yoga studio alone for the surf camp that my wife and I own in Cape Town, South Africa. When the going gets tough I look at the hard work you do then realise all is good! Keep it up and give me a shout if you are ever on holiday in Cape Town. Cheers!!
That's great to hear, I'm into yoga too, I do it every day and it would be a pleasure to come visit you if I'll ever be around your area. It's on my wish list for a long time to go to Australia, hopefully after I'm done with this project I'll travel a bit more. I'm very happy to hear that my videos help you. Wishing you all the best with your yoga studio and everything else!
Hi Nik, I found your channel this morning and was bindge watching the 9 episodes of your Off Grid Log Cabin building. I'm now a subscriber. Somehow adictive to watch. Thanks for taking the time to film everything. Nice place you live. Wonderful wooden stems you made. Good Luck for you, whilst building on. Take care!
Nik; Wishing you continued success in accomplishing your dream! It’s truly inspiring. Thank you, for your amazing positivity and thoughtfulness in all your videos. May God continue to bless you and all of your endeavors. Your character and attitude are commendable. You set an example for people of all ages.
Outstanding! I love how you handle problems with such patience; you are a great example! Keep it up...really can't wait to see you lifting logs in place. Please quadruple your safety measures!!
You can't go wrong calling it threaded rod,most common for me. Once you put it in concrete it becomes rebar with a thread I've even called it ready rod, cut it into different lengths and put a nut on both ends. (Ready Rod) it's all the same. Huge pillars my friend I like the fact you used all them rocks in the foundation it serves as like putting in rebar plus the fact it's free and takes less concrete very structural sound can't wait to see the build pretty high task for a younger lad.go with your gut take your time if you run into problems and ask questions if you need more advice. I live in the States. Minnesota it's a little colder here good luck my friend...The Build!
Hello from Slovakia. I also watch there My self reliance & Shawn James. You both are my heroes & thanks for your positive energy. Subscribted, the Bell is on, liked 😎❤
Rebar in the UK I think - used for re enforcing concrete etc - loving the videos and thank you as always for sharing your journey - looking forward to continuing it with you
that foundation is rock solid, another video with u busting ass,I so admire your work ethic,the younger generation should watch your videos,have a great day.
Your doing a great job and I'm trying to keep up with your video's. One question the rock u used for ur cement looked like what we call type 2 witch is a mix of rock and dirt. In my experience dirt will contaminate the concrete here we use a mix of rock and clean sand.
Keep the video's coming bud ! I live in western Canada and have been looking forward to watching you build this log house and anything else you build in the future ! Cheers ! :-) Dennis
Well done Nik I'm really excited with your progress looking forward to seeing how the lift works anyone with negative comments regarding your work aught to be ashamed of themselves well done ✅ looking forward to the next video Alan Northern Ireland!👍
Your long rod of steel with threads, here in Pennsylvania, USA we call it " All thread". Keep up good work. You seem to be a very sincere human being. Thank you for videos. Have a great day.
Nik - I am always amazed at your work ethic and dedication to your goals. You live in a beautiful area and are very fortunate to have such breathtaking scenery all around you. I also love the small Canadian Flag on your T-Shirt. I'll be waiting for the next one. Regards from the Island of Newfoundland in Eastern Canada.
Hi from Kansas USA, I'm new to ur channel and I find it very relaxing and enjoyable. U are one of the channels that I have been watching in building a log cabin, I have learned alot. Thank u for making these videos ur content is awsome.
Hi Nick. The all thread or threaded rod. In a builder's term is referred to as an anchor bolt. In which the silk is anchored to the foundation. Keep up the good work I can't wait to see the cabin progress and you grow as a young man along the way. Great work from Canada.
Excellent start to this project. Super foundation. Thanks for sharing your dream project with us. Looking forward to the next video. Best wishes and good luck.
Dear Nick, donť worry about square and fine mesurements. Wood work as gets to saddle down. If You look at od kabin, they are not perfect square. They didn't have much more than eye and nivel. It will works. Just be fine. You will adjust woods to foundations.
Guessing your building a derrick with the log next to the footer.. I had one friend make one but i wasn't there to help set it up. It will work like a crane to swing the logs in place... Love your video's man your a hard worker!! Be safe,, easy to get hurt working alone..
You are an inspiration, you're drive and determination is awesome, keep up the good work, I am looking forward to see you're journey through to the end
Hi Nik, looking forward to the build, good luck with it. Your gonna make mistakes, but that's part of the process. Your English is excellent by the way.
Thank so much to everyone that helped me with the question I asked about the name of the rod I used, amazed by all the answers and different names from all around the world. I'm sure I will never ever again forget the name of it 😁
Of course your comment popped up after I sent mine. Like the work your doing. Haven't finished the video yet but if you haven't moved it you can drill a new hole and epoxy a new rod in
In Serbian language we say "navojna šipka", but since you put it in the concrete, that is "navojna šipka-anker".
I like his thinking and way of doing things he doesn't give up like me I don't give up I don't like to lose
The name is 'ALL THREAD'. So sorry I am late on the reply. Just found your site and subscribed. Good job.👍
WalterRamjet HeroOfOurNation
Thank you, good info.
I am 75 years old and never in my life I had a hero , you now have become my hero.
That rod is called all thread in the USA. Love the videos! You are the type of role model young men should emulate.
Thank you for letting me know! I'm glad you enjoy watching the videos.
@@nikrijavec47 - Yes it is all-thread but in your use it would be called an anchor bolt.
jay90374, yes you are right, it's called a anchor bolt 🔩 🤗
We call it threaded rod here in the UK, comes in different sizes but us pipe fitters use 10mm threaded rod and 12mm for heavier duty to hang pipes off a lot of guys just call it rod, have you got any 10mm rod mate?
Or studding, 10mm stud, 16mm stud, etc.

Using food coloring it the water and a couple of glass tubes for the water level always helped my grandfather to see it better. Awesome build.

Awe Joburg, Naas.
You forgot Anchor bolt:)
I can't decide between the threaded rod and all thread 😆Thanks for such a wide variety of names!
So many different names ,interesting
M8 m10 and m12 are reinforcing bar designations and have nothing to do with threaded rod.
Love your videos! Watching you from Washington State in the U.S.. Can't wait to see your cabin completed.
Hi Nik. This is second time i watch all your log cabin building videos. You are truly a hard working person with amazing skills. Fills me with joy everytime i watch you. I wish you all the best in life. You and your lovely family deserve it! Greeting from Chris in Denmark.
Hi Nik, the steel bar in your concrete is called threaded rod.👍🏻 It's looking good, gr8 progress, fun stuff ahead. Have a gr8 week.
That threaded rod is called All Thread here in the US. I’d put a couple of 1/4”x2”x10” bar straps on it to keep it from pulling out. Drill a same diameter hole in the center and slip it over the all thread 6” from the bottom and 12” from that one. Or even weld some rebar would work.

The foundation is most important to accomplish dreams and goals and you have it! Keep putting one foot in front of the other. Take care.
Can't wait for more of your videos and to see the final product but it will take awhile. Awesome. Keep trucking.
Not sure if this picture is sunrise or sunset but it is breathtaking. Thank you for taking us along with you on your cabin building journey.
Nik great idea with the rocks in the cement and gives it extra strength.

Mistakes are how we learn. Great Job!
Don’t worry about the little differences in level at this stage: you can always adapt during the log-levelling stage. Great project, best of luck!

Its looking good. I like the way you used what was around you to build with.
Hi Nick.
The all thread or threaded rod. In a builder's term is referred to as an anchor bolt. In which the silk is anchored to the foundation.
Keep up the good work I can't wait to see the cabin progress and you grow as a young man along the way. Great work from Canada.
Thanks again for the content
No problem, my pleasure to share 😉
Laying out your forms use the 3, 4, 5, method to determine square prior to pouring. Then anchor forms, then pour concrete.. Love the video
Excellent start to this project. Super foundation. Thanks for sharing your dream project with us. Looking forward to the next video. Best wishes and good luck.
My pleasure to share, thank you for watching and your comment! All the best to you!
Dear Nick, donť worry about square and fine mesurements. Wood work as gets to saddle down. If You look at od kabin, they are not perfect square. They didn't have much more than eye and nivel. It will works. Just be fine. You will adjust woods to foundations.
Guessing your building a derrick with the log next to the footer.. I had one friend make one but i wasn't there to help set it up. It will work like a crane to swing the logs in place... Love your video's man your a hard worker!! Be safe,, easy to get hurt working alone..
You are an inspiration, you're drive and determination is awesome, keep up the good work, I am looking forward to see you're journey through to the end
