Great video! Next time considering using a roller with a 1" nap for the staining. You could knock it out in about 30 minutes, especially with an extention pole. Did my whole deck this way in about an hour, railings included.
NGL When Cody said "I can build stairs" and your replied about not having stairs had me laughing. Yall are coming along nicely up there. Hard to believe what you have made in such a short time. I have kids your age and would kill for them to have 1-10th of the drive you 2 have! So for what its worth over the internet, in the comment section, I am Very proud of you 2!
I totally agree with this. Same for my boys! I also love the love you show for each other "I'd rather it go thru my finger than yours". You two make an awesome team and little family! I as well am so so proud of the both of you!
Well done you two the deck looks good and it's nice to see you both having fun them little birds 🐦🐦 were so lovely I too also feed the wildlife in my garden and I love seeing rowan she's so big and so pretty she's daddies girl.sitting on the deck in her little chair ya know it won't be long till she's running around that beautiful land of yours take care 👍👋❤
I remember when you first started building your house you didn’t even have a nail gun and were pounding every nail in with a hammer! Gradually you two are coming along and building a beautiful life together.
Awesome teamwork. Love you sharing beautiful Rowan watching her grow. That building will be a game changer. Will you have room for your amazing workbench you built.
Sure been a wet week again ..... Was that it for summer??? Spring and early summer was awesome considering last year was wet every dang day. Keep it going i love watching other local like minded people and their progress.
A sawmill deck gets some hard use. I would highly recommend one or preferably two courses of blocking between your joists as it is an easy way to add strength and stiffening.
Ooh I love this video. I get to see Rowan❤️. Cody can do anything. I like his style - he improvises. Please wear protective gear. You don’t want nails causing injury. I’m terrified of nail guns! You drop it, you don’t want that tool going off targeting your body. This video got interrupted by the news of the attempted assassination on Trump. Praying for him and the victim’s family. What is our world coming to! 🇦🇺 fan
I was thinking the same thing! Only I made sure the camera was off before I tried anything so there would be no evidence. I miss everyone so much and I plan to go back and visit later this year!
Keep your hand back far enough the nail cant reach it. I had a board blow out doing that while framing a house and that nail went to the bone in my finger. Was not life threatening but man did it hurt!
Please can we see your garden. Just pictures. I know you love to garden and it is important to the everyday life. Just a few pictures on the community page would be awesome
Be careful so you don't want to get hurt you guys live in far away from hospitals ...plus flip flops are not shoes or boots ..hey girl please wear boots
While you may think the bridge is most important, someone else thinks the interior of our house is more important, and someone else will say the outside yard is. As the ones who are living and experiencing this life, I’d say we have our priorities right where they need to be. The bridge is one of the last things on our list. We have other means of crossing the creek and if it were a big issue, dozens of other people use this same route - we are not solely responsible.
Please please no flip flops in the building area. Also a wise carpenter told me to never use the back of your hand/palm as a tool. You will do serious damage over the years. Ie use an hammer. Also never have your hand on the other side of where the nailer is pointed… ask an ER nurse.
Sorry to say, but you shouldn;t be doing silly things like running across joists. As much as it looks like fun, if either of you were to sprain a joint or break a bone with a simple trip. you would be in real trouble for many weeks. Sorry to sound like a kill joy, but reality sucks.
@@TheGreatWhiteHope209 Not too many, but seriously. If you go down with a broken leg, remote living with dependents will take on a whole new level of stress. Still each to their own.
Awww making friends with the wild life so precious

You take your time and have patience, which was my issue in life. Had to get things done right away. Rushed. I see what patience can do. Nice deck.
You got that done pretty quickly! Can’t wait to see the walls!
I love watching you guys build .❤ Look forward to your videos week after week.
Ty for sharing your journey and your family with all of us. An inspiration to many to get working on providing a better way of life for all of you.
Oh no, we have to wait a week for the next video, i could watch one everyday
Wow. You guys sure work hard. I great watching it all come together. You're baby looks so content on the sawmill platform deck.
You kids are fun to watch. Keep up the good work.😀

Great video Cody and Lori
The baby is growing. So adorable 🙂
Sure been a wet week again ..... Was that it for summer??? Spring and early summer was awesome considering last year was wet every dang day. Keep it going i love watching other local like minded people and their progress.
Great job painting Lori
For a sawmill the platform doesn’t has to be perfect. It’s a great start to have a legit sawmill lol. ✌️
Another great video left as a cliffhanger
Great video, getting lots done, except the interruption from the hungry birds. 😄😄
Nice platform well done Cody👏👏👏👏. Excellent video
Another great job! Thanks for sharing
Excellent "Alaska Craftsman" build
P rety baby. 😂 Looks likes like you are have a good start on your sawmill.
A sawmill deck gets some hard use. I would highly recommend one or preferably two courses of blocking between your joists as it is an easy way to add strength and stiffening.

Lookin good
Top job well done
You're place looks great 👍Hi from Colorado Springs 😀
Ohhh fudge....a cliff hanger. Did you get the wall up????
Your property is so beautiful. Have a good week
Great job
good job
Lori... the edge of the platform was like a beam. you could have shown us some of your old beam skills. Bethany misses you at the gym.
I was thinking the same thing! Only I made sure the camera was off before I tried anything so there would be no evidence.
I miss everyone so much and I plan to go back and visit later this year!
❤@@remotelifealaska
Very good you stopped at the good bit oh well next time
What in the Disney princess did I just watch with the birds? 😂
Your baby is beautiful.
Keep your hand back far enough the nail cant reach it. I had a board blow out doing that while framing a house and that nail went to the bone in my finger. Was not life threatening but man did it hurt!
Good to have partner
❤

Has your sawmill paid for itself yet? If not, I’m sure it will!
Question about your old sawmill platform. Any plans for this? Storage shed? Or will you take it apart ?
If those new boards are fresh off the mill, won't you have huge gaps between the planks next year when the green wood shrinks and shrinks and shrinks?
Cody normally uses dead standing so they are not going to have all the moisture
Could you use a roller on the deck instead of a brush. Might be quicker?
A roller attached to a longer pole works great. You can stand and walk the roller along the platform. It’s fast.
We considered using a roller to speed it up, but decided it would drop too much through the cracks.
@@remotelifealaskalove your videos
Please can we see your garden. Just pictures. I know you love to garden and it is important to the everyday life. Just a few pictures on the community page would be awesome
We are hoping to put together a short video showing the garden soon!
Maybe 2 videos a week?, lol
🇳🇴👍👍
Are you guys ok? I see glimpses of Cody being short and frustrated with you these days.
Won't that plastic under the deck collect water???
Be careful so you don't want to get hurt you guys live in far away from hospitals ...plus flip flops are not shoes or boots ..hey girl please wear boots
Why don’t you rebuild your bridge that gets you from the road to your house. You guys sure do things without prioritizing what is more important.
While you may think the bridge is most important, someone else thinks the interior of our house is more important, and someone else will say the outside yard is.
As the ones who are living and experiencing this life, I’d say we have our priorities right where they need to be.
The bridge is one of the last things on our list. We have other means of crossing the creek and if it were a big issue, dozens of other people use this same route - we are not solely responsible.
OMG You youtubers. To square anything one side has to be anchored.
Please please no flip flops in the building area. Also a wise carpenter told me to never use the back of your hand/palm as a tool. You will do serious damage over the years. Ie use an hammer. Also never have your hand on the other side of where the nailer is pointed… ask an ER nurse.
Would you like to go to their house and watch them cook to see if they are using the proper daily amount of allotted salt as well?

I bet you get invited to all the parties.
