I could watch your post every day all day long. Thank you for posting such wonderful content. RUclips is probably 90% fluff and total junk but not your chanel. Again....Thank you.
Not only do I admire what you and Cathy are doing as that way of life has always been my dream, I love the music. My adopted Dad played the fiddle for many of the Jam sessions I sang and danced at almost every weekend in NE Alberta. He played old fashioned waltzes which were my favorite dances.
Thanks Louise. Music has always been a big part of my life and it sounds like it was for you as well. I suspect your father payed fiddle better than I do. Perhaps I’ll master it in our new cabin this winter.
The pureness of the sunshine in the crisp air...well, I can feel it in my heart and senses. The clarity of each leaf, of all details, comes through on such a day as this.
You're a brave soul climbing trees in them mocky-sins... OSHA would've had a time back in 1750... I'm a new subscriber living in Alaska, and really enjoying the cabin build and living history. I too, am a living historian. Keep your powder dry!
I've watched your channel since almost the first you came online, and it amazes me how far you and Cathy have come, the home and garden. Beauty at every turn.
My Grand daughter loves your video, Peter. She's almost 3 years old, and when we said " That's our friend, Peter " She said " Hi, Peter ! " She likes that you are dressed like her " Grand Bob " :- ]
That's some good engineering with the pulley and block & tackle! I've got an old block & tackle that looks exactly like yours. I've used it a few times while fixing up our old place here in Nova Scotia. Keep up the good work. I love seeing how it's coming along.
You are inspiring me to get back to working on my Cabin build. I own land in KY and have been working on clearing my site to build a cabin like yours with my son. Thanks for the wonderful videos and just one thing, the volume on your video is very low.
Well done!! Where there's a will there's a way. I was thinking as I watch thru this series you don't seem to have much snow. Has that been your normal snow fall?
Looks like there's a bunch of poles leaning against the wall inside the cabin. Are those going to be used for the porch railings..?? Everything looks great.
Reall like you whole project but can you do something about the sound level? When you are 8' from the camera I can barely hear you and sometimes not at all... Keep up the great and interesting Content Jeff in Maine
We have struggle with the audio since we started this endevour. We are currently on our 3rd mic system. We appreciate the feedback and will see what we can do to improve the sound.
@@TheWoodlandEscape Well i am watching stuff from way back so for all i know it is not even an issue anymore but glad to hear i was not imagining things
I really enjoy watching your program, and especially like that you wear period clothing while working, what do you carry in the pouch that you wear, and is it leather
The pouch is normally my shooting bag or sometimes they were called bullet bags. We make a lot of items fro deer hides that we brain tan. It has doubled as my nail pouch for the build.
Did you make that coat yourself? and if you did you should definatly do a tutorial. There currently exists no good tutorials on how to make a good capote
My wife does make pretty much everything I wear from linen and wool and I do the sewing of hide items like leggings, haversacks, shooting bags, mocs, etc. Thanks for the idea, perhaps when I need some new items, we will do just that.
@@TheWoodlandEscape awesome! ive wanted to make a my own capote out of a hudson bay blanket but there isnt any good tutorials on youtube and those blankets are super expensive
There are a few sutures out there that sell patterns. I would suggest you purchase a pattern for your first. Like you mentioned, the material is very expensive. If you’re persona is 18 century, I would suggest not buying the icon HB blanket with the 3 colour pattern as they did not exist then.
Is your verandah going to have a roof? There doesn't seem to be any allowance for any pitch angle from the eaves of the cabin to the front of the verandah.
A common trade item in the 16th ,17th and 18th century. Often used as currency if one found themself at a trading post and needing provisions, they could trade back the silver for lead, powder, tea etc.
Great progress on the cabin, and the pulley system was ingenious! You're staying true to the time era, your musket, your tools, your clothing, your dwellings and techniques. I thoroughly enjoy that aspect of your videos! One might think that the lost hog might have been salvageable for your neighbor since it appeared frozen and only partially eaten, your thoughts? Thanks again for sharing your experience with us! Take care and stay true to your art! -Steve-

Beautiful words .Best wishes from Ireland 🇮🇪
I've been watching your videos. This is the first that's not close-captioned. I could enjoy it a lot more with captions. Keep up the good work.
Thanks Skullcrushd - is an issue with RUclips. I tried to force the subtitles - it might work now.

Outstanding !! I love the real way of life.. The way are Great Gran father use to live !!! The real world !!👍👍💪💪💪💪💪✌✌🇺🇸

Thank you for the kind words and your continued support.
I love watching creative problem solving. Great job! I've just discovered your channel and am working my way through this series. Thanks for sharing.
Nice rope pulley system! That saves a person’s back thank you for sharing
Great, great footage. Very nice progress.
Great looking cabin. I was rooting for you the whole time to get that log up there.
Thanks, Thomas.
bom demais ver o passo a passo dessa construção, ta ficando bom demais.
Love the pulley system you used, building alone it's makes sense and it saves your back too !! Cabin coming along nicely !!
Thanks Arlene, it is starting to come together.
Looking great wonderful episode thanks. J🏴
enjoying the series - I believe those were ravens
I found your channel a few weeks ago! I have gone back and watched from the beginning. I really enjoy your content!!! 👍👍👍 🇺🇲
Thanks Doc. I thought Doc Holiday passed back in the 1800’s ... good to know you’re still around!
@@TheWoodlandEscape yeah, at times I feel like I passed away in1887. But this Doc is still hanging on!!! "I really do enjoy your adventure..."
Great incidental music, thanks. Some of it reminds me of my distant cousin Canadian Mike O’Reilly from Ottawa who has a blue grass band called Cody.
I’ll have to check out this Cody band, thanks John.
Thank you for another nice video Peter. Spring is coming soon.
Indeed it is, just around the corner and then I can get at my fireplace and chimney. Glad you’re enjoying.
Nice job Peter👍
Love your channel my friend. Started binge watching your log cabin build and have thoroughly enjoyed it. You have a new
subscriber. Keep ‘em coming
Thank you.
Love the music choice
Thanks, provided by a couple of friends of mine from the east coast.
Every step forward looks even better. Keep up the good work. :-)

Now that makes the entire endeavor worth while ... too cute.
Looking real nice .....smart dresser....
Thanks Robert, been called a lot of things, but smart dresser is most certainly a first.
Looking good keep it up love getting the update videos thanks for sharing...

Thanks Al. Always good to hear from you.
Merveilleux et reposant a regarder
It looked like hard work but you made it. 👍🏻
Enjoyed the show
Sooo awesome!!!
lookin good
ahh, good way too spend a half hour on a sunday, look forward to your videos.
Happy to hear that you spent a
Glad your enjoying our step back in time endeavor Rick.
Love the video! I am planning to do something similar soon!
Thanks and good luck with your project.
You are inspiring me to get back to working on my Cabin build. I own land in KY and have been working on clearing my site to build a cabin like yours with my son. Thanks for the wonderful videos and just one thing, the volume on your video is very low.
Great idea involving your son. Good luck with your build.
Well done!! Where there's a will there's a way. I was thinking as I watch thru this series you don't seem to have much snow. Has that been your normal snow fall?
Every winter we seem to get less snow and less winter.
👍👌✋ from Turkey.
So glad that you had not installed any windows at this point! Mighty impressive rope tricks. How do you know which rope does what?
Been an arborist all my adult life, so the ropes simply make sense to me, even though it looks a tad confusing.l
Looks like there's a bunch of poles leaning against the wall inside the cabin. Are those going to be used for the porch railings..?? Everything looks great.
❤😊😊
how long do the logs dry or fill them immediately with a mixture of cement?
Man, I’d be pegging those porch supports. I don’t trust s couple of nails.

@@TheWoodlandEscape Well i am watching stuff from way back so for all i know it is not even an issue anymore but glad to hear i was not imagining things
Still climbing trees...can we still do that over 50?🤔😂
Cabin is coming along... 🪓👍
I’m an arborist by trade, so I’ve been scrambling up trees for my entire adult life ... still makes me smile.
@@TheWoodlandEscape that explains it... can't remember the last time I climbed a tree. I'm not afraid of heights, jus falling!🤣
This is the real life history and real life in the wild outdoors so if you live in a box you all haters need to get used to a cruelty of real life

Love ur work but didn't see u noch the porch rafters out on the front edge ! Looks like two nails in each post to hold the roof boards !!! ?????
More nails were added after entail nailing ... very observant Jim .
Is your verandah going to have a roof? There doesn't seem to be any allowance for any pitch angle from the eaves of the cabin to the front of the verandah.
It is indeed, you will see the progress in he next video.
@@TheWoodlandEscape You big tease! lol! I was going to watch anyway!
I like your coat. Did you make it or did you purchase it from an artisan?
We make all of our clothing, including brain tanning our own hides. Thanks for your interest.
can you tell me about the trade silver on your pouch
A common trade item in the 16th ,17th and 18th century. Often used as currency if one found themself at a trading post and needing provisions, they could trade back the silver for lead, powder, tea etc.
What type of nails are you using?
Made the bulk of them on my forge, but have started to use a few store bought.
@@TheWoodlandEscape thanks
Really enjoy your videos!

If one is hungry enough, one can eat almost anything. When we are out trekking we try to eat after dark so you can’t see what is in the stew pot, lol.
If he would just put stops on the skids he would not need the pulleys at all he could just pull it right up.
Now when you say "look" for neighbour's lost hog...were you in fact hunting for it? :P
Yup
Wondering are your feet cold in your boots?
JIM
Sometimes - when they get wet.
