Building the second floor on our cabin in the Cariboo - Ep. #13

- Опубликовано: 17 окт 2024
- In this video we continue the construction of our cabin in the woods by building the second story. That's right, we have a second floor in the cabin! Lots of work was done in short time because winter comes early in the Cariboo region of British Columbia. In just a few days we rolled joists, put down plywood, and finished things off by sheathing the walls with plywood and Tyvek homewrap.

Like it. You must bring the plywood down over the band board on the first floor. Vinny 🇺🇸
Thank you! Will do once we put the siding on, wasn’t a priority :)
You guys are so awesome and inspiring. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! We appreciate it!
Great idea covering the second floor pony walls with the tyvek before setting them up, brilliant!!!
Thank you! Saved us the sketchy job of balancing on a ladder to put it in place :)
"So, it's raining pretty hard here but we still need our sausages" Hilarious! LOL
Thank you :)
You gave me a perfect idea......When I start mine I'm going to make the second floor 6 ' tall.
instead of the regular 8' tall.
In the past when I did a second floor I didn't even think of making the second floor shorter.
So thanks for doing it your way. Keep up the good work and please ... more videos.
Thanks so much! Glad you liked the idea of the shorter wall. More video is coming very soon :)
Tall person will hate the shorter floor
@@bennym1956 Yes, I agree. I’m over 6’ tall and wouldn’t be able to stand up completely.
I can’t wait to see your second floor with an amazing view. SUBSCRIBED
Thank you!
Nice job for both for both of you!
Thank you!
congrats from France 👌👌, I am going to finish my own wooden house in mountain, hope snow don't come soon😆
Thank you, and good luck with the construction :)
By any chance, would you mind sharing the prints for your build? 😅 I'll be building a 20x20 2 story home, and I like how you build yours
I wish I could send them, but they only exist on paper. 😬 we’re currently away too…
Jelger drew them by hand…
Very nice!
Thank you!
Great job, is there a reason you didn’t go full top floor?
We thought it would look weird because it’s so narrow. Way too tall for a small surface. In hindsight it might have been nice to have more storage. 😂
Nice progress!
Thank you!
Your framing experience shows is this what you do for a living?
Thank you! It’s actually my first build ever. I had no experience with construction in any way :)
I find it rather amusing how one will put on ear protection to use an electric nailer which is not loud at all, but will not wear them when they are using a hammer, which is probably 5 to 10 times louder. Good ole OSHA. It's not just you, builder, it's a lot of tubers doing this.
You’re right, a hammer can be louder. More protection would probably be better.
Another cool video! Awesome how you put a tarp over the build site! That was a great idea. You definitely continue to amaze me with your carpentry skills! I like how its going. I was a little scared when you put up the end walls, I probably would of put outside braces to stop it from sliding off the 2nd floor. But it shows me how little I know because you had them installed easy! Keep up the cool videos! I am definitely learning a lot! As always thanks for taking the time to share!

Thank you for the kind words :). It was definitely tricky to raise those top walls without brackets, but we had no choice because the plywood was already and extended past the bottom of the wall (to cover the band joist). So we took it slow and it worked out :). Glad you liked the video!
Everything looks awesome good job 👍 did you put flashing on the windows.
Thank you! And yes we put lots of butyl flashing tape on the windows :)
Hi there Jelgar, thanks for the great video. I am curious, with housewraps, they sell these nails with a plastic cap with the idea being that the plastic/rubber retainer will help avoid penetrations in the housewrap. Did you research this option and if so, what are your thoughts on it. I have seen people do both methods (i.e. staples and nails with plastic retainers) but am not sure how much difference on a practical level there is between the two. If possible, kindly provide your thoughts. HDH [: { ].
Hi HDH! Thank you for the kind words. 😊 When speaking with a contractor at the hardware store, he told us that it’s overkill/not necessary and a lot less convenient to use. But de home wrap manufacturers definitely require it for warranty purposes.
So while we went for convenience (and also noticed contractors in the city don’t use them), maybe in the future we wijl do it differently.
@@CaribooAdventure Hi Cariboo Adventure, thank you for your reply. All the best to you. HDH [: { ].
LOVE, LOVE, LOVING Your house!! I've binged on all your videos. Looking forward to see your progress and Congratulations on your land and home! Love how you're doing the 2nd floor. Great idea on shorter walls. How tall will be the pitch on the roof? How tall are your 2nd floor walls? How tall are your 1st floor walls? How long and wide is the house? Sq ft of the house? So sorry for so many questions (maybe I missed this info) but I'm planning to do mine in the woods also and would like to get some ideas. Yours seems the perfect size! Lol Once again, Loving your videos and looking forward for more! I just subscribed! Blessings for you both!
Thanks so much for the comment!
- Roof pitch will be 6 in 12
- 2nd floor walls heights: 4 ft for the pony walls, 8 ft for the end walls (to the bottom of the ridge beam) so a tad bit higher than that
- 1st floor walls: 8 ft (96-3/4”)
- foot print of the cabin is 16 ft by 20 ft, so 320 sq ft surface, but 2 floors that size (minus the stair well).
Good luck on your build, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
@@CaribooAdventure "Oh Hello there" (like the way you say it, Lol) Thank you so much! And Thank you both for sharing your beautiful journey!
2x6로 튼튼하게 목조주택을 짓군요
연장은 주로 밀워키를 사용하고 KOREA 목조주택 보다는
순리대로하니 짓기가 쉬워보입니다
골조작업은 보통 일주일이면 지붕 석까래까지 걸수있고 OSB 집성합판으로 외부벽체 내부천정 두르고 R30 단열재 스트드 사이사이에 집어넣고 내부 벽체와 바깥 지붕에 OSB로 마무리하고 타이백 두르고
서두르지않고 천천히 지어야 안전한 집을 지을수 있습니다
창문쪽 해드는 미리 단열재를 집어넣고 확실히 튼튼하게 짓고
바닥 기초장선을 할때 씰이나 방수가되는 접착제를 사용하지 않는군요
Well done!
😯👍👍👍👌
Thank you :)
What dance move is your weird friend doing at 6:00?! 😝
Right :)!
🇧🇷👏👏👏👏👏

Trees are nice, but I'm not sure I want to live under them because they cause mildew and stuff that breaks down the building envelope.
Never heard about that, guess time will tell :)
