"It's a building, it's a structure, it's substantial" spoken like a proud dad. "only physically". lol; "it's crooked, because it is a log". I put Don's picture on a milk box given that he is missing; nice shirt, I am from Iowa. Always look forward to your videos Kevin. Your wit and imagination are amazing. Your daughter will always have some fun seeing what you build.
It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.
Hey Kevin, maybe one day do a drone shot of the property. It'd be interesting to see where everything is in relation to the first cabin, the cube, the lake, etc. PS: and thanks for being so consistent with the videos. I enjoy watching with my ☕ every Saturday down here in Virginia👍😁 🇺🇸
Hidee ho neighbor to the north! Another great video of course. I love your daughter, she is so precious! I'm sure she gets into her fair share of trouble as all children do. Your cabin is looking lovely and if I were to put my two cents in it would be for the third window. If I remember correctly the side that will not have the lean to is the west side. Therefore, this side will get those nasty winds from the north. If you put it on the side with the evaporator you could use it as a passthrough. I worried about the humidity until I remembered the cover for the lean to will be higher than the roof and so the moisture will mostly rise to that level and rain down the original roof structure. I suggest a gutter to catch this and since it's condensed steam it is distilled water. If you can keep that roof area clean or encapsulate it and collect it you now have drinking water. 😁 Keep up the good work, I hope Don is well, and hug your family; until next week ✌💜🐖💨
Simply can't get enough Kevin ingenuity to satisfy me. Great content as usual. The carpenter in me recognizes your superior skills. I'll have to stick to repairing things as your design/construction abilities run circles around mine.
This is one of my all time favorite channels!!! You’re GREAT at what you do Kevin. Your creativity is off the charts. Keep up the AWESOME WORK. Stay safe my friend and God Bless You. 🤍💜🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻💜🤍
Being stuck inside it's just amazing to see you do all this work ! I've never even cut a piece of wood but you inspire me ! One day once this covid craze is over.. I hope i can try too !
Use the locking bricks at the doorway to the center of the cabin. Put your lean-to where you want and put the evoperator in the lean to and pile up firewood for seasoning in the lean-to.
The first thing i do upon waking up on Saturday morning is to see if your content has been uploaded to RUclips. Very entertaining! The rainbow was perfect! Your daughter needs the log cabin as a playhouse. Chris - another great job of editing. Please, please, please, never change your style of editing.
I must say sir, you are an artist with that chain saw. You should do a chain saw usage basics video for those of us chainsaw challenged people, I heated with wood for 4 years some years back after an altercation with my local gas company, lol. I told them to take their gas and...well you get the idea. So I can hack down an old dead tree but your skills are very impressive! Thanks for the videos!!
The interlocking bricks should be in the build somewhere. You will need a fireproof base for the stove. Maybe the bricks would help most as a floor for the evaporator and surrounding work area. I like the idea of adding a productive water well. Maybe the fish tank will need topping up once in a while.
That is great as usual. I think you need to add a chicken tractor to your to do list. Let the chickens mow and fertilize your field. Ducks work really good in a tractor too. Thanks for sharing.
The mill looks like one big bandsaw with adjustable struts. Great video! I love watching you take things from a tree to a cabin including the floor. I am sorry that your daughter doesn't live with you. Will you be building one of the log cabins for me? I Am old and harmless and will build you a medicinal and edible garden that will self sow. I miss seeing Don. I hope that he is not injured and that he got his fair share of maple syrup. Thanks again for a great video! I watched it a couple of times and could not appreciate the size of the log without watching you mill it.
Use the locking bricks for the outside. We missed Don, appears his wife didn’t let him come out and play. You should make the shack the new Don domain so he’s always around when you need him!
Entertaining video for a Saturday lunchtime break. Neat to learn, even at 54, some carpentry basics. My thought was to cut pieces to frame in the door, pc by pc, but then you built a squared up frame and inserted it into the doorway. Aha moment. Wish I could have watched this 10 years ago before I built my second shed. (it's not that bad)...but now I wanna BUILD more STUFF. Thanks for sharing your adventures once again. 5 Egg-McMuffins rating.
Never been able to see a rainbow completely from one side to the other like that all at once. So cool. Plus the reflection of another one behind it. So cool. Like the chickens but thought you had to have a rooster in order for them to lay eggs. A little more space for that many to get around in during the day would be nice for them. Just a thought. Have you ever tried giving them grubs. They love them. Enjoying watching to see how the cabin comes out. You could do like another subscriber suggested and building the bed where you can put it up during the day with a table to open out of when you put it up and save on space and maybe maje the bed just a little bigger than a twin but not a full size. Maybe in between the two since probably will be a man sleeping on it will have some room to move around. That's as long as there's plenty of clearance from the stove. Then there's plenty of room for a kitchenette on the other side. I also have been thinking the same, you need a well out there. That would be great.
I agree with the LOFT BED! Also, string some small clear Christmas lights up there, and a short railing so your daughter won’t fall off. You could have a Murphy bed with a collapsible table on the back OR you could build a long storage bench that holds a foldout bed. Maybe the table could fold up into a headboard!! 😁
Great Video Kevin. I commented on your brother Wooded beards man Facebook account about how much I enjoy your videos. It's amazing what you can do with natural materials. I'm no builder or contractor. I work in the natural gas industry here in America. Keep up the amazing work. Look forward to your new videos every single week.
couch that converts to a bed corner posts made with the logs you chopped for the door with a fold up bunkie above it that way 2 people can camp in it if need be and have a sitting spot.
It is rare, these days. To get a video once each week. So very grateful you are so prolific. But please look after your health. Know we will understand if you take a break. But we won't like it. But wear it we will. Thank you.
If you are worried about bears, shouldn’t your door swing outward to keep bears from pushing inward? Thanks for sharing this video. The rainbow is wonderful and so is your daughter’s cameo... Wishing you and your family a blessed spring season. Peace Kevin.
Your shirt caught my eye...as I live in Iowa ☺️, the cabin is lookin’ good! I like your changes midway through a project - the process, the twists and turns, are always my favorite part of your videos.
My little girl is 3 years old. yesterday was her birthday. Anyways she watches your channel with me. And when she seen your daughter she jumped up saying daddy daddy look that little girls like me! She has red hair just like mine. She was so excited and said she’s my friend. There in the redhead club together.
@@cmosphoto1 they are awesome! Annabelle even told my wife about her friend like her with with red hair. in the video with her dad eating a worm with the chickens. The things they say are priceless.
Sometimes things present themselves for the better. With the logs that you cut out for the door. Why not use that for a deck before you enter the Syrup Shack? Just something I noticed. The choice is up to you though.
My vote is not another window in the little cabin. You need the wall space. The door has a window across from the window that is installed. Perfect. Is the lean-to going to be on the south side? Hard to tell how this cabin is set. If one of the long sides or the other is the south, I recommend the south (or east) side. 'I have my reasons.' (LOL, wanted to sound like you Kevin) We love your presentations! Darling Daddy's Girl - hope she gets to do more commentary.
Fold up bed and bunk above maybe. That would be more hang out floor space or bed space. Maybe more fold up beds as bunks on the other side. Daddy what did you make?. I made a door can I play in the sawdust? I have been planting veg today my 8 year old was getting worms and feeding them to out chickens worm football. The door looks great and the cabin. I have wood envy and not the size of your brothers feet.. I have mill envy too. lol. Great build.
I remember when you could order peeps & fish from Sears. They sure went to hell ... The cabin is looking good ! I can`t wait to see you make your first egg sammich in it. Thank You for sharing your video, and letting us hang out.
Not sure if it's the same company, but when I started laying and sanding hardwood floors 20 years ago a lot of our saws where Delta so was our planer oh, I love the videos
You need to build a warehouse for your recovered windows and such. Make it even easier to find and see what you have.bunk style beds work great in camps and cabins. All our mobile camps had them. Storage on one if your own your own your bag or food etc. sleep on the other.
"It's a building, it's a structure, it's substantial" spoken like a proud dad. "only physically". lol; "it's crooked, because it is a log". I put Don's picture on a milk box given that he is missing; nice shirt, I am from Iowa. Always look forward to your videos Kevin. Your wit and imagination are amazing. Your daughter will always have some fun seeing what you build.
I would also classify Don as a little power pack.
It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.
Nice work. "Daddy, is this your home?" Only when mommy wants it to be.
Beta energy 😉
I am addicted to all your videos they are just so entertaining!!
Oh that is going to be so cool. Peace and good fortune and good health to you and your family. Your daughter is so adorable. All the best.
You could install a Murphy bed with a table on the back to use when it is up to better utilize the space.
You must of stayed at Holiday Inn last night - Are you ever smart!!!!

I vote for clay+stray with a last layer of fine clay plaster! Will fit beautifully with the log cabin aesthetically. Imho. :)
I'm leaning that way.
Beautiful double rainbow!! Thanks for sharing that. I also just love your ingenuity!! The cabin is looking great!

Interlock stone on the outside lean too. Wood floors inside
You should use the interlocking brick under your lean too. Would be a great base for you’re evaporator
Bear proof the maple sweet cabin! Numero uno thing to do!
Double rainbow! Excellent!

Good call on the smaller door 👍
Kevin is definitely good at what he does great custom builder!

The good Lord gave your daughter a double rainbow. Amazing grace. :)
That is great as usual. I think you need to add a chicken tractor to your to do list. Let the chickens mow and fertilize your field. Ducks work really good in a tractor too. Thanks for sharing.
I've already built one. First thing I did when I got my mill.
FANTASTIC VIDEO! Beautiful daughter!!!

Thanks again for a great video! I watched it a couple of times and could not appreciate the size of the log without watching you mill it.
My Daughter lives with me. Don is doing just fine! That was a huge log.
Use the locking bricks for the outside.
We missed Don, appears his wife didn’t let him come out and play. You should make the shack the new Don domain so he’s always around when you need him!
Don should ask his mom next time she likely let him out play as the wifey will not aprove,but moms always have more say in what their children can do
Kevin, you should've given Don more syrup. He deserved at least a gallon (or maybe you're paying him, I don't know) 😆
time lapse sound of the mill is spectacular!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so cool !! cheers for that!
We must be from the same tribe. I pretty much understood your hand signals! Your daughter is so cute. I love her hair.
You could use some of those patio blocks for a floor under the lean to side of the roof over the evaporator.
Cabin looking really great. Can't wait to see the floors go in.

Yayyyy! So glad you’re turning it into a little cabin!! Best surprise. Where shall I sleep?!? 😜

Then there's plenty of room for a kitchenette on the other side. I also have been thinking the same, you need a well out there. That would be great.
If you are bear proofing make the door open to the outside, the the frame it closes against will give even a stronger resistance for them getting in.
Yep...
If it snows overnight you’re screwed.
I agree with the LOFT BED! Also, string some small clear Christmas lights up there, and a short railing so your daughter won’t fall off.

I appreciate that
Great content filled episode! Really looking forward to the well video, you don't see things like digging a well on youtube enough. God bless
An old friend from Huston Texas once told me , starting is half finished . Has been a great motivator for me to start projects .
Correct on the threshold!

Pacing myself.
A good sample why I love silent vidoes.

Those interlocking stone could create a floor under the evaporator with sand under for good drainage.
Sure.. you give Don a bottle of maple syrup, let him finally speak and then you fire him!
Maybe a deck in the front would help getting through the door easier?? Love the cabin and the bubble window now that's cute lol.
Yeah the deck sounds like a summer project.
THAT PIECE FROM THE DOORWAY MAKES A GOOD FRONT STEP WITH A FEM PLANKS NAILED IN TOP TO EVEN IT OUT
Your imagination never ceases to suprise me. Looking forward to the next step. 👍
Awesome rainbow shot.
Former trout farmer here...trout need cold fresh springwater. Might wanna try catfish
Now thats a peep hole..cabin looking good dude!!!!!always enjoy your videos...oh thanks for that beautiful rainbow 🌈..bee fron S.A. TX....
Your shirt caught my eye...as I live in Iowa ☺️, the cabin is lookin’ good! I like your changes midway through a project - the process, the twists and turns, are always my favorite part of your videos.
LOFT BED! LOFT BED!!! Then you’ll have room for a wood burning stove, kitchen, shelves, projector and screen.
Oh my goodness. You are an excellent carpender.
Nice. Maybe a rain collection system and filter for water?
The cabin looks nice. Curious to see how you’ll isolate it. Love the detailed explanations.
I look forward to these videos on the weekends. I think maybe this is my favorite channel. Cheers!

Good work Kevin. The log cabin would make a nice log sauna at this stage. But you're the captain in that ship.
Two Saunas?! lol
@@ModernSelfReliance The first one would excel as a regular cabin for sleeping and spending some time while making barbecue
Cool window
My vote is not another window in the little cabin. You need the wall space. The door has a window across from the window that is installed. Perfect. Is the lean-to going to be on the south side?

PS Raise some of those night crawlers for the chickens!
19:22 Those linked logs would be a good start for an entrance porch.
Klamath falls Oregon is listening and watching
You should make it like a porthole on a ship; make it to open and close
That power pack is pretty slick .
Cool video bro. You should do some fancy lean-to like it fold up out of the way so you can put your distillery in and take it out with ease.
Kevin, the milling of the ash log was a beautiful thing. Thanks
1:10 “Widows?” And doors? 😂
That’s enough maple syrup to last until next season, maybe?
You may plant some crayfish into that pond, too.
DOUBLE RAINBOW! ;)
What does it mean??? *sobs*
Lovin the cabin build! Chickens every spring? What happened to last years.. they lay for 2-3 yrs. I thought??
I started filming in June.
Love your videos! Keep em’ coming!! It makes my weekend when you upload.
Good morning
It snowed here in Missouri a couple days ago
Up and down... Here too.
Wow .
Fold up bed and bunk above maybe. That would be more hang out floor space or bed space. Maybe more fold up beds as bunks on the other side. Daddy what did you make?.

I can`t wait to see you make your first egg sammich in it.
Thank You for sharing your video, and letting us hang out.
Double rainbow all the way!
Great video as always, that ash looks pretty nice now that it's all milled up.
hi Kevin, AWESOME job!!! its really coming together, your daughter is so cute, hold on to those memories!!! be safe, thank you, bill
17:54 - "KNOCK KNOCK!" :D
Best channel on any tube.
Do a sun roof. That would be sweet!
In order for a door to be bear proof it should open out. Bears tend to push in on doors and windows when they are trying to get into a cabin.
It's coming along nicely!
thanks!
Not sure if it's the same company, but when I started laying and sanding hardwood floors 20 years ago a lot of our saws where Delta so was our planer oh, I love the videos
You have an amazing imagination
Love your saw mill n your creativity

Shes precious !!
That was an amazing double rainbow!
i call those doors stable doors because that was where i have seen then, the top opens and the horses can poke there heads through
You go for that gold brother.
"Kevin's Airbnb"... I would like to book a weekend in the Sugar Shack in the second week of June. Also does that include "pond trout fishing"? 😀🎣🏞
Good one, always informative and entertaining!
Your not going to think picking on Chris about his height is so funny when he punches you in the knee!!!
