Good to see that your sense of humor is still intact after dealing w/comment section. You handled that Caulk like a Proho,Cody. I hope and pray that you and the family have a wonderful weekend.
I'm loving the return of long form content. I cant wait to see the finished cabin, it already looks so good. We will keep your family in our prayers as always, enjoy your weekend!
Cody you are blessed beyond reason. The views from the porch and windows are something that mpst of us could only dream of. That along with permanent water running through your property is God sent. Although we have some very different views since you started your channel, yes I was there at the start when your big boy was a toddler, I have seen God bless you and your family consistently and richly. You must be doing something right.
I know that YT encourages creators to make shorts so that we can all get collectively more stoopid. But I really enjoy your long-form videos. Keep it up!
Thanks for explaining your decision about the waterproofing. My keyboard trigger finger was feeling itchy. ;) Like anything, the answer is always "It depends"
So as a builder for 40 yrs. Times change. I do t use that name brand on the east coast ( cape cod) we use Anderson. Per their specs and class . They want the window opening caulked directly on the wood frame or plywood, just as you did. I would have used/ made a lead pan on the window sill first , so any moisture that does get in would roll back out over the logs After installation, go around the window flange ( nailing fin) with " 3m exterior all weather “ flashing tape, start at the bottom, then overlap the sides , then the top overlap . I’d trim it with cedar and use stainless nails . Great job and beautiful cabinets. 🙏
Cody, so much wisdom here. Not only is there a simple pleasure in handling a tool properly to get the job done, but I dare anyone to find a more satisfying pasttime than properly laying down just the right amount of caulk.
So well thought from location to material. Beautiful job thus far. I am sure I am not the only one excited to see the finished project. Love and gratitude to all!
Those are some beautiful windows. The Cozy Cabin is getting close to being "dried in" for the wet weather. This is such a fun project to watch, from my end anyway. Cheers.
I agree with you about the window water proofing. It certainly doesn't hurt. But your call makes 100% sense. We overbuild houses to the nth degree now a days. Some common sense never hurts.
I'm sure you'll be fine since you are a Proho. But, in new home construction, I leave the plastic coverings on until final deep clean. Helps protect from scratches throughout finishing, and keeps them clean!
I HATE how so many manufacturers add a branding sticker that you have to spend forever peeling off your brand new window. Kudos to this manufacturer for using a few brain cells and adding it to their protective cover that peels off easily in one clean swipe.
As someone who didn’t for 2 months, and found them then impossible to remove, peel those stickers on the glass ASAP. Even if you then re-stick them to paper and blutack them back on the glass 🙂
Casement windows are nice when they are new. After about 5 ish years I’ve seen ALOT of them begin leaking. And need either replacement or resealing. Buying a quality window will prolong the casement windows life. But eventually will leak air and water.
I am so fully dedicated to see this process through to the end as a viewer of the channel LOL! I understand its not my dollar or time invested but as a spectator this is not happening fast enough for me. Ive been thoroughly enjoying this cabin build.
One of my most recent purchases was a dewalt caulking gun. ( that’s just the brand I’ve been with for the last 30!years, my sure the red, blue or green team make them too) If I was just running a short little bead every once and a while I would stay with the old squeeze and drag. But if you’re on a stage of job and you’re squeezing hundreds of feet of liquid nails or caulking miles of trim or just doing a half dozen or so windows it just makes the task move along so much smoother and I find I laying it out pretty evenly too. I’ll put it in the buy once cry once category.
I just realized this cabin was not made for your kids... you are giving your house to your kids and living smaller so the next generation can flourish.... You are a godly man and a rare breed.
I’m going to also put that split mini condensation line in my prayers. Bro. You need to pay close attention to that line. I installed a spit mini in my shop back in 2021 and even with really good angles, I’m having an issue with condensation backing up into my shop.
With all the fantasy dwellings, Wranglerstar has basically turned into Marie Antoinette. I suppose I’m saying that because I’m a little bit envious. If I had the land, I’d probably be building a lot of forts, too.😂😂😂
We have awning windows and side slide windows in my house built in 50s awning windows are great because you can leave it open in rain unless the rain is blowing sideways
don't know if this was in another video or not but did you ever show a plan layout for the cabin for like your vision on furniture and location of cabs and such?
It’s good to see the oft mentioned but rarely seen man servant. American windows are fitted completely different to British, you guys have a lot of efficiency in your building processes
@@noahfyan9617 yeah agreed, we have a massive housing shortage in Uk, still hanging doors and plastering walls, still building with brick and block and still slating roofs. Our big building companies could learn a thing or two from our ‘merican brothers but not sure the public would go for it. I work for domestic customers now, some of the houses i work on were built when Columbus was still picking his crew so there’s no production efficiency to be had there!
A log cabin with running water and .....A WORKING TOILET!?!?!?!?? You've gone soft on us Cody! Ssss OH Eff Teee tuh 😤😤😤😤😤😤 lol Looking awesome as expected and ty for always opening up things like this to us future PROhO's. May the Father continue to watch over and bless you and your house.

Don’t caulk the bottom of windows. Only the top and sides need caulking. Leave the bottom uncaulked for any moisture to have a drainage point.
Midwest man here…This series has taken me from a casual watcher of your channel to a full on subscriber!
I always leave the plastic on the windows until the job is 99.999% complete. It saves from having to wash and scrape the window glass.
Love it! And dang the view from those front windows!
So well thought from location to material. Beautiful job thus far. I am sure I am not the only one excited to see the finished project. Love and gratitude to all!
It's all coming together. Great to follow along with this build, thanks Mr. W.

Fantastic looking windows! The Saw work around the outside looks factory made! Great Skill!
I swear Cody.. You have the best view on your property !! so Nice with Fuji in the background

My OCD is in overdrive seeing your right suspender strap being twisted. Windows look great!
Great now I can’t unsee it
Thank you Sir, for just being you and for all you do, thank you.
Nice thick caulk. Indeed it is sir, indeed it is.
As someone who didn’t for 2 months, and found them then impossible to remove, peel those stickers on the glass ASAP.

Very cool little cabin, and the chainsaw cutouts are insanely precise lol
The cabin gets this Northern Midwest man's approval 👍🏻👍🏻
Great craftsmanship. And inspiring for the regular joe to give something a go.
Dont forget to put bars on the windows to keep the bears off the moose,elk & deer hanging,cooling & aging for processing. Rocky mtn guy advice!
Wow, great advice! Amy idea what Forest or mountain range this cabin is located in?

Mrs. W needs a planter under the awning window for fresh herbs.
Cody, if anyone gives you any grief about not finishing things, just do like I do. I tell them I have a black belt in Partial Arts!
Honest to goodness, from one West Coast man to another, this is my favorite RUclips channel. 👍
Appreciate that
That view is awesome. Nice work.
I have beautiful views at my house but your views blow mine away. It really is coming together and I look forward to seeing the completed project.
Those are some beautiful windows, Mrs. W did a great job!
Big Overhangs are a windows best friend!

You are a godly man and a rare breed.
Love the view of Mt Fuji.
Great work on the windows.....
Just discovered this channel and am assuming the Mt Fuji thing is a joke? Is this Colorado or New Mexico?
Nice choice of windows, they look great.
Ditch silicone and use clear construction sealant, or sometimes called liquid flashing. Better for every application.
You made quick work of that; sure is nice having competent help.
I’m going to also put that split mini condensation line in my prayers. Bro. You need to pay close attention to that line. I installed a spit mini in my shop back in 2021 and even with really good angles, I’m having an issue with condensation backing up into my shop.
Like you’re doing a great job putting the windows in😊
Make sure that Mr Cool drain line is lower than than the drain pan inside the unit
I don’t understand why half of these comments are criticism. Your doing a great job
Home time has a series of all the differences between log houses and a regular home sometime was a Sunday morning dying show years as go !
Check the height of all the window frames from the inside. This assures your trim lines up.
For a cosy cabin you need small traditional windows, not huge picture windows. But it's a beautiful job
Nice solid build it just seems a little close to the road.
The log home window and door frames that I have seen always had slots for settling like you did with the utility room wall.
That cabin is amazing
I would've made a flashing piece on the top of the window sill up against the log with about a 2" drip edge
I’m just wondering why it was built so close to the road. Thanks
"300 days of sunshine"
My envy is immeasurable.
We could use a lot less sunshine here in Ohio. Fortunately, it looks like rain next week.
@@sociopathmercenary so no more cat barbecues for at least a week?
We get 300 days of rain here in Alaska.
300 days of sunshine to live on the west coast? I hear it's pretty warm in Hell aswell
I absolutely hate the sun. Burning hot and making me dark easily. Wish it was always cloudy.
East coast man envies your view, sir.
Love it! Will there be screens on the windows?
Yes
Awnings are the best for environment with precip so you can still open them if it's coming down
That thick caulk though haha 😂
The cabin is looking great
This cabin is going to be great. I’ve got an acre lot I would love to put one on.
What species of wood are the logs?
I would have swapped the casement windows. It seems you would get better ventelation through the cabin if they opened in opposite directions.
Only a west coast man could handle a caulk like that, enjoyed the video.
West coast man “very excited” 😜

I really miss the old homestead.
Looking Great ! Hi Mt Fuji !
5:47 Wow! What an amazing nature outside. Truly a great spot. Hope you get many memorable moments in here :)
The SweatLoaf Necklace! Can we get Sweatloaf on a ballcap or T-Shirt??
don't know if this was in another video or not but did you ever show a plan layout for the cabin for like your vision on furniture and location of cabs and such?
That cabin as going to around for ever
It's great to see you can be using your hand again for the big 🐓.... haha
Even if the window framing does start to rot after 20+years, it seems like it would be easy enough to pull the window off and repair it.
The log cabin is looking great…
That looks awesome great job.
It’s good to see the oft mentioned but rarely seen man servant.
American windows are fitted completely different to British, you guys have a lot of efficiency in your building processes
Need it with sheer amount we put up, seconds add up to hours and days on big projects

*NICE THICK CAULK!!!!!*
At least there is a space here for good old fashioned humor. Lay er on thick. Act accordingly 😂
Might consider that rubber tape stuff on that upper loft window, since it's a little more exposed to the weather.
Beautiful windows
Do they come with screens ??
Beautiful!
Static ele is real! :) Nice work, my friend!
Must be said... East coast man is impressed. :)
What is the size of the cabin? Looks good! Great work!

Cody, showing us how to build a Missile defense system to protect us from our greatest ally. Dream video
Our greatest ally always puts America's interests ahead of their own, We are so lucky to have such a friend,
@wranglerstar
Oh brother, we are so blessed.
These videos are great!
I love that you think the windows is gonna be the thing that’s gonna stop the talking. 😂
I love the work boots osha approved
Those are beautiful windows.
I expected you to get the windows with built in sash !
Mr. Jeriah exist he is real 😂😂😂😂 I thought it was just Cody‘s mate believe clearly not 😂
was good seeing your man servant :)
What suspender and belt system are you rocking mr proho?
It would be really interesting to know how much the total build would cost, especially for people like me in their 20’s.
Incredible views!
Mr. Jeriah has a smart hammer choice.
