I've always dreamt of a fully sustainable lifestyle ever since I was a kid. Watching your work brings tears of joy to my eyes and i just want to say thank you for your effort, love from syria ❤️
We like how it adds more strength to the build! And the plywood is long term compostable (in theory). Oneday we'd love to see an entire micro-cabin grown from mycelium or hemp blocks. Little steps :D
Plus, plywood sheeting allows you to mount things basically anywhere on your walls. Super smart! Also, a cordless makita tool set is well worth the investment. I love mine. Love your vids and hope to do this one day on my future homestead just acquiring all the skills. I have learned construction, glass installation, landscaping, various electrical and plumbing, irrigation/sprinkler systems, aquaponics certified, ranch hand, wood working and handy man skills. Now working on learning herbalism, bee keeping, and hopefully blacksmithing and forging in the near future.
Thanks for the video. Your insulation is super flammable, so you should use sheet-rock as a fire barrier. Also the sheet-rock on a ceiling is usually thicker than the walls to prevent sagging.
Looking great guys! Just for future sake it’s best to do the ceiling first with some glue and then doing the sides. This allows you to push up on the sides to give your top pieces more support and a seamless transition. This way you wouldn’t need any crown trim and it prevents a lot of sagging. Also are you guys just going to leave the screws visible?
Ive been loving the series! You guys are doing a great job and im learning alot. I'm curious why you guys didn't use a vapor barrier between the plywood and the wall?
I did something similar but for the more complex areas around doors and windows I left it a quarter inch long or so and used a router with a lower bearing to get the "perfect" fit.
Great videos so far guys! Really enjoying them. Should you have ran electrical wire and installed power outlets before attaching the 4x8 wooden panels to the studs? 😅
I know this is off topic on the video you guys presented. Which I been watching the series I love it!!! I was going to ask you guys I want to know how you guys would do it in a desert type land. I live in west Texas El Paso and have couple of acres everything seems doable expect for the water, how can I find an efficient way to get water. Would your acorn lab sim help me when the finish the product arrives. Sorry for the all the questions.
Please add some form of finish to the wall. I know you said you like it as-is, but you also said in the flooring video you have children that spill things. You have the chance now to intentionally stain it rather than let entropy stain it for you
The only alternative is never learning or building anything! We're not afraid to try our hand at any project, even if it's not perfect :) Trim helps :)

I was waiting to see how you'd do this!!! - Kevin

this series is great really demystifying the whole process
Good! That's the goal :)
Demystifying ?! Really ...?!

Glad to see a channel backed by Eric Gardening. Eric is a good guy!
We love Epic Gardening! Kevin is the man :)

That remote control palet jack was dope!
Best series ever, love from Vietnam 🇻🇳
Greatly appreciate y’all’s content
Great work, can’t wait to see how you guys do the electric with the power bank and solar.
That's just around the corner!

That's a great idea! We'll save that for future builds. Did you have a guide for the router?
@@acornlandlabs I used a router bit with a lower guide bushing. So the bushing rode on the window casing as I worked it around the opening.

What's the fire rating of the plywood?
Did you guys make that intro song? I’ve heard it before either on your channel or somewhere else. If so, what did you use to make the song?
Music is from Artlist!

kinda sloppy
but if it works it works xD
