...We built a door that is over 5 inches thick! Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's a world record. lol Maybe not for a bank vault, but certainly for a cabin.

Hi my friend.. Do you consider living here full time after finishing up the cabin ? Off grid lifestyle 😍 stay safe and take care my friend
I would say your pop has done a lot of carpentry in the past to help you build such a beautiful door. Good job you guys.
On assembling the door face boards, I believe you would have been better served with using 4-each Pipe clamps to hold the board tight to each other before screwing them onto the door frame. They would as you know shrink with age. i do like how you put foam between the cross braces.
Buuuut, the Faux exterior hinges look weird. If it were mine I would take them off since they are non-functional and make the outside of the door face look too busy, what with the Iron clovo's installed.
And since this is a rural cabin with an elevated porch, why not have the door swing outward. It would make for a far more secure cabin against a Bear trying to "Push it in".
Another trick to keep Bears away is to take scrape Plywood and but 2-1/2 screws randomly through the face and lay these points up under the windows and door while your away.
Not a record, in the 1980s we use 4x6x8' to make a 6" thick door... upstate NY, in the finger lakes, used all thread to squeeze it together then we squared it with a plain, I guess, we wanted the door as thick as the walls as we could... Which was 8"ish round lumber, I never liked that the door swung inward. But grandpa was worried about getting snowed in. The other benefit to it swinging inside was the door was so heavy, he put a wheel on the end to hold up the weight. I will bet money people have made thicker, we wanted it so no one could chop thru it to break in when we were not there most of the year. I do admit your door is better looking, we used home made hardware to make these massive deadbolts
How long till it's "House Fly Proof"?
Hey , you and your dad are doing a tremendous job on the door. I like the fact that your insulating it. I hope your wife's health is improving.
Much appreciated, my friend. 🙂👍The insulation was a great way to keep the weight down and the R value up.
...As for Mrs. Outsider, she's been having a rough year with her health. Still hoping and praying her condition will improve though.
@@TheOutsiderCabin I was hoping for good things for her too. I do hope for the best for her! And your daughter as well of course.
@@TheOutsiderCabin I'm sorry Ms. Outsider is having a rough year. I guess I didn't look at the date on the other video. We're praying. God blessed your faith with a miracle & can do it again 🙌🙌 stay strong 🙏
@@TheOutsiderCabin Excellent door. Continued prayers for Mrs. Outsider and your entire family. 🙏♥️
The whole thing is nice but the door is really nice
Amazing!!! We just found y'all, & we're hooked!! We watched the cancer video - PRAISE GOD for your miracles!! Our God is AWESOME!!! We'll be praying for y'all & that God bless you abundantly!!!
I France, in the Alps, the iron claws were use to avoid bears to destroy the doors. If they want to scratch the door, they were injured their paws.
Good video, you always made my day when you post a new video !
Excellent tidbit of the history on the clavos! Thanks for sharing.
Everyone should have a tire repair kit in their vehicle. But for anyone off roading, they are required. Multiple ways to patch a puncture and multiple ways to get air into it. Worst case, leave the screw in the tire. The door looks great by the way. The cabin is really coming together. Already has some character!
Wow !! Are you kidding me. this build is thing of absolute genius. Beautiful !!!! Gawd I'd love to have a build from the two of you.. Your grandson is top-notch.. Most Respectfully !
Blessings from Ipswich Australia to you and yours the Outsider and Snr . What an xlent team you make father and son ... following the perfect example is standing you on good stead to be witnesses of His Glory. Thankyou for sharing your door building skills with us all. You're like a breath of fresh air that just blows into our lives. 👏👏🤗🙏💞✝️🤗
Thank you Heather! 🙂🙏 God bless.
beautiful see working father and son together with this harmony,well done!
The door is beautiful, the house is beautiful and the whole area is beautiful. Your dad raised you right, you both seem thoughtful, moral and hardworking. In this time, that is amazing.
Hello Nana how is the weather conditions over there.?.
@@charlesthomas6606 Really hot and dry the last few weeks with a couple of heavy rains. Flooded underpasses and streets because it rained so hard in a very short time. No drought. East central kansas.
@@justnana2256 OK nice to meet you am from Mexico but presently now in Oslo Norway for my job what about you...???
Our Grandfather built a very think and heavy (external) door's on our cabin, his reason was to keep bears out, they ripped through a 3" door.. He built them out of 3 layers of 2 x 4's out side's vertical the middle horizontal, they were all glued and pegged together with half inch dole rods, and they are very very heavy there are 5 heavy duty hinges with 5" screws.. he also built very strong storm shutters, that were almost 3" thick with metal bands strapped around them.. I replaced those doors a few years ago, I used a heavy steel door and put 1/4" wood paneling over them, to give it a rustic wood look.. My wife & I both love your channel.. Be Blessed...
Awesome door! The cabin looks great
🙂🙏 As does the new cabin foundation you're putting in. All the best, my friend.
This confirms my theory that all Canadians know each other😄
(Kidding of course. I’ve followed both of your channels from almost day one, thanks to a lifelong passion that was sparked by Dick Proenneke many years ago)
How cool is this!!! My two favorite cabin builders 👍👍👍
ilk defa gördüm başkasına yorum yazdığını. my self Reliance 👍😅
By the way, this is the same question for you. it's just that I'm subscribed to your channels and I still don't understand it.... Explain to me to a Russian person why you leave gaps between logs, and just then cover them with a solution??????? Isn't it easier to cut down into a cup? and there is no this gray disgrace in the form of cement slats
You can tell the old man loves the work,wish my dad were still around
What a fantastic Journey you have taken us your viewers on. The cabin will host many generations of your family and you have a documentation of you and your father building it. The door is a work of art we wouldn't have expected anything less from you and your father. I want thank you and your father for taking us on this remarkable Journey!
Thank you, my friend! It's a strange and wonderful thought...my grandchildren enjoying the cabin, while also being able to view its construction on RUclips. That's if RUclips is still around by then. Who knows! 😁
@@TheOutsiderCabin just a suggestion, make copies of your videos and or also make a book that you can keep in the cabin in a chest full of your precious memories our family life. I just know your mom is looking down at you and your father with great joy and pride! Also hope your wife is doing okay, getting better everyday!
AS SOON AS I OPEN THE VIDEO, YOU MAKE ME SMILE...B/C OF THE COMRADERIE BETWEEN THE TWO OF YOU, FATHER & SON...AND WHAT A DAD YOU HAVE...HE OBVIOUSLY LOVES YOU VERY MUCH...GOD BLESS YOU BOTH...;)
I use Simply safe security in my off grid cabin too .
No power or internet connection needed .
It's a off gridders security dream
My Dad was always brilliant and willing to help me as your Dad does. Not everyone is truly Blessed with a Dad like that. Many fond memories and great appreciation.
Donnie
Ft. Knox called, they want their door back. Seriously, that is a BEAUTIFUL door! Well done gentlemen!
😆👍 Thanks, my friend.
Incredible build, looks great. Many blessings to the entire Outsider family.
I WACHT a lot of channels that i love, but your's full of knowledge and love, well done with accuracy and most of all father and son working peacefully, God Bless you both and your family.
Beautiful door indeed. However what’s more beautiful, to me at least, is seeing your Dad by your side as you build this cabin. His wisdom is priceless, & his presence a gift. I can’t wait to see how your bride decorates the inside of this gem. I’ve seen the video of her story & I feel we need to see more of her!
Hello Judy how is the weather conditions over there??
god bless you and your dad and all your family I wished young mens would watch and learn from you all the hard work
Seen a lot of doors in my day and this is a thing of beauty. Beautiful craftsmanship. What a joy it must be to have your dad right there with you. God bless all who will pass through this door.
Every time I watch one of these vids, I always think the same thing. Someday, someone will be sitting on the porch and saying..."your Grandfather and Great Grandfather built this cabin with their bare hands. FANTASTIC work guys. Love it. Keep it up.
Thank you so much for your videos, and sharing your family with us. You building memories and history with every screw and nail.
adventure in the forest is very fun by always keeping the forest beauty to be sustainable and not damage but make it comfortable to live in and beautiful. thank you sher
Always so grateful, for the opportunity you both give to all of us, to share in your experiences. It's a wonderful internet family. The door is phenomenal!
You and Dad make a great team and I admire you two. and don't miss a video .
Door 🚪 looks Amazing 😉👍
Even with the tire leaking you still went for the drive away shot. I respect the dedication
The cabin has a really fine finish look to it. Almost like a piece of furniture. It's beautiful!
You’re blessed to work so closely with your dad. I was blessed to work with my dad as a baker in my school days. I’d love to makes some bread with him again. I miss him now that he’s gone. :)
Wow, that door came out beautifully, but the whole cabin is a work of art, you are one talented dude !
Literally have had a medieval looking door saved on my tabs in my phone for years.....
...You have my attention lol.
Your Log Cabin is absolutely beautiful.You and Dad have done a Incredible job !
The wrought iron clavos you added to the front door gave it a rustic medieval look!
I helped my dad build his log home many years ago, sadly he passed just recently, I wish I had documented that build on video as you have but luckily I have memories of those days, treasure this time with your dad.
P.S cabin looks amazing!
Great job Gentlemen! Love watching father and son working together. God bless!!
I really LOVE how that door turned out! Awesome job guys! 👍
Hi how GREAT was that video. Both you and your Dad did a BRILLIANT job on the door
It really complements the Cabin. Outsider Sr. Many many tks for letting me know that you are going to be on all the upcoming videos. You sure pull your weight working on the Cabin. Hats off and well done to you 🥰🥰🥰🥰 Delighted to see you Sylvia
Oh wow, just beautiful. That door is a masterpiece. God bless!!!
And just when one thinks that it can't get any better! , that door is amazing!
It's great that you decided to keep the extended roof for a veranda
Also am thrilled you're taste runs with rustic and Viking and not the 'hoity toity' frilly curtains, vinyl floors, plastic counter tops... As well, in the future, adding more rooms and have the roof and veranda extend across the front *and* side.
Not that I'm expecting too much but *you* did say you were gonna be around for a long time so I'm just thinking of things you could consider doing... A good reason to keep all of you around, I think... We love ya!
p.s. "Do not despise the small beginnings for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin". Remember? So ya gotta keep him happy... Yet another good reason for keepin' on.
*God* Bless and Have Fun... Amen
gotta love that good ol' medieval style styrofoam core
Wow, your craftsmanship is so inspiring, love what you and your father have done! Thanks, so much, for sharing!
OMG YOU AND YOUR DADDY is doing SUCH A WONDERFUL JOB I hope YOUR WIFE AND CHILDREN AND your mom are all doing well STAY SAFE OUTTHERE AND BLESSED Rose FROM COLUMBUS TEXAS
Damn... that is a helluva door. As someone who is a tad OCD, I appreciated the overbuilt quality of the entire project. Ive watched every video after just stumbled upon one video by accident
You are very blessed to be able to do these things with your father. Thanks for all the time you put into making these videos so we can take part in your adventures.
Beautiful, strong door!! Pretty soon you’ll be working on the interior - can’t wait! ❤️❤️
The Outsider will become the insider
@@Mike.C. TeeHee!
From a Man that has done finish carpentry for 37 years..... I like your style.....
Wow, glad to hear it! 😁👍 Thank you, my friend.
That tractor is a godsend eh! :) Good to point out that you harvested a while back logs you planned for in the future. This project all around is so well thought out....mistakes and all....what a learning experience....and to learn about yourself as well BONUS. 👍
To God be the glory
Guys, it’s breathtaking
That door is AMAZING! The whole cabin is!! I've watched since the boulders were selected and I love every minute of it. God bless you and your family.
Hello Rhonda how is the weather conditions over there.???
Thank you for playing this again. Your father was amazing! Top of the world carpenter. May his legacy live on with you. He is missed. That door is fabulous! I hope all is well with you and your family. How is your wife doing? That may be to personal, I understand. I'm a survivor I know how it is. Stay strong, and again, thanks for showing this video. I miss him too.
The cabin looks amazing can't wait to see how you finish it up inside...
💕The door👍
Nice meeting you dear, I’m Vin Scully the voice of Dodgers baseball broadcasts in LA and NY, I believe we met by fate,Reach me out on Gmail sections to keep in touch Thanks: vinscully19@gmail.com
Now that is a door. A good looking door.
I'm looking forward to seeing the hinges that will be able to handle that door!
Hi Peter! The one you saw having the swivel part removed, is the same kind of hinge as what will be to hang the door. Cheers!
Exactly. We'll be using 4 to 5 of those 2' strap hinges on the inside of the door, securely fastened with heavy duty wood screws. That'll do the trick. :)
@@TheOutsiderCabin it would be better (engineering wise) that you passed coach bolts through from the outside, so that you are not depending on compression only of woodscrews and trying cope with that weight. Bolts passing right the way through, would/will give Doweling effect to carry the weight..... imho
Outsider, You are and your Dad are great builers but you are an even Better Salesman.
The iron nails you used were actually just nails in the olden days, with a wide head to prevent them from sinking into the wood from the front, and they were longer than the thickness of the door so that they stuck through and were then bent back on the backside to prevent anyone from pulling them out. There are videos out here that show you how it is done if I didn't manage to explain it well. What you have there is just a prop to make the door look awesome, and you have surely accomplished that;) Great job guys! Appreciate the content!
Hence the saying “dead as a doornail”. If they were removed they were basically broken.
Clinch nails.
@@TimBielawa no dead asadoor nail is referring to coubtersunk nails. thoseold iron rivets on the old doors are burned on and peened on the other side. they hold the layers of boards togeather which meant therewas layers with grain going both ways in the door.. making it stronger
I bet your just the life of the party every where you go MC Armoury .
The nails are crimped over to help the horses that might kick, it from falling apart
You’re very lucky to work worth your dad! I was able to as well. Everything I build today is because of him. God bless!
That door really adds a nice touch to a already awesome looking cabin that's like putting the cherry on top nice job !
Hello to you both... You do such excellent work and watching you is a real highpoint of my day. It helps me in these difficult times by letting me live through your eyes, and your creative genius. I build along with you, and it's very engrossing for me. I want to say thank you, again. Heartfelt.
Please send my greetings and warm best wishes to your wife, with empathy and love for healing.
God bless... 💕
That is one impressive door! Guaranteed to keep any bear or marauder at bay! Well done
We can't find words to express the most amazing door ever. well done
Hello Rose how is the weather conditions over there ..???
That door is beautiful, you and your Dad have to be very proud of your build! Thanks for sharing. Kevin
I absolutely am enchanted by your building ability. It never ceases to amaze me what you can do with wood. Thank you for taking the time to post .
You can’t say that _you_ didn’t change the Big Bad Wolf’s line in the nursery rhyme:
_“… I’ll huff, and I’ll puff, and I’ll blow…wwhoa whoa whoa - what is that? Medieval wood? Look at the craftsmanship. Dang…little me sit down here and rethink this approach.”_ 😂
Ahahahaha, hilarious AND true!! That's an amazing door!!! Love it!!
Lol. Love your narative there about that big bad wolf.
Thanks for sharing that. A good laugh is always a good way to start a day.
God bless
I have never commented on the channel before but I have to say, that over the shoulder tractor ride is great! I have to say you have become as good a film maker as woodworker, it shows.
I'm so happy with every new apisode. It raises my hopes in regard with Mis. Outsidder.
I'm so proude to wear the shirt with your logo.
It gives me the opportunity to make a small contribution, by sprading your story & bringing more followers to your chanell.
Looking good! The original iron heads on old doors where riveted nails going clean through to the other side and peened over both ways. They held the door together - thus there were so many of them - a multi layer door being far stronger and fire resistant.
Ah interesting! Makes sense. Thanks for sharing that little bit if history.
Just love watching this...also doing this with yoru dad will bring so many fond memories and cherish this for a lifetime!
You and your father are amazing. Thank you for sharing a bit of your world with the rest of us.
WOWOWOWOWOWOW! I LOVE that door!!!!!!! Won't be long and you can be staying in that cabin overnight.
That door is amazing, great job to the two of you.
The Door ..... first thing a visitor focuses on from afar and then up close setting the state of mind about whats inside ..... A beautiful door of character .... I cant wait to join you all at your first Christmas at the cabin and God bless and keep you too , friend.
Just as a note of precaution: Be careful where you place the brush and rags that you use to apply Linseed oil; they have been known to spontaneously combust. The door looks fantastic!
Great advice! ...and as a matter of fact, I left all the rags and brushes outside, away from the cabin for that reason.
I’m a finish carpenter as well, very impressive job Men! Outstanding!
@@TheOutsiderCabin for future builds, there are three naturally drying oils (linseed, tung, walnut), tung and walnut don’t spontaneously combust…. Ever…. If you still want to use linseed, than get the raw oil as it doesn’t have the Japanese (chemical) driers in it like what you buy in the cans, and is much less likely to combust spontaneously…
Also, historically, certain other things have been mixed with drying oils to make them seal wood better, pine tar and turpentine (turpentine was used to thin the mixture and get it deep into the wood instead of just sitting on top)especially…. they even used to use them to protect the wood in the old fishing fleets. Mix the oil, pine tar, and pine turpentine, then slowly heat to a boil and use warm to seal the wood….
YESSS I used penofin oil on my deck. Worked well after dark and dropped two rags. The next day I forgot to go double check and wasn't home much of the hot sunny day. Luckily my neighbor happened to be in her yard and noticed the flames.
I think your Dad is getting younger! Wonderful to work on such a project together. Well done, gentlemen.
I love your videos! All the best from NSW, Australia.
Nice meeting you dear, I’m Vin Scully the voice of Dodgers baseball broadcasts in LA and NY, I believe we met by fate,Reach me out on Gmail sections to keep in touch Thanks: vinscully19@gmail.com
The look of the door to the cabin is perfect!
So glad you get to do so much of this with your Dad. Prayers for all of you and especially for the health of your wife.
Father & Son, Watching you two work is a real blessing.Great job as usual,the door is absolutely beautiful and very well made.You are creating some very Precious Memories. God Bless.
That's the most racoons proof door I've ever seen. ❤️🙏
Let's hope so! If a racoon gets through that door...it's not a racoon. 🦣😆
It’s so wonderful that you and your Father can work together and build something so beautiful, artistic, full of creativity and rustic. You always amaze me with your ingenuity and God given talents. Thank you so much for sharing your step by step architecture designs. I can almost smell the cedar from here from your stunning door; your grandfather would be totally delighted by this magnificent structure. 🗝
That thickness of timber will certainly give good insulation against your cold winters.
Looks fantastic! That door really finishes the look nicely. You and your dad should be proud!
That’s an amazing door.
Nothing would have been better than to build a cabin with my Dad, but he didn’t have the patience to teach me anything I was just supposed to know! You sir are a lucky man! God bless!
I could live in that year round, no problem. Remember when you trim the door to fit, that on the latch side to cut it at angle so the swing doesn't hit and drag on the jam. It will be even more pronounced with a door that thick.
I've been considering doing just that. 👍🙂 Thanks for the suggestion!
Your doors opening inwards I'm guessing? The problem you may have is the gap will need to be bigger on the outside to accommodate the leading edge cut. Something to bare in mind. But great job.
Such a blessing you are able to spend so much quality time with your dad. Impressive, quality work. Can't wait till the next post.
I have been so bummed that you haven’t had a new video lately. The wait was worth it as the front door is gorgeous, beautiful and perfect! This is the best Log Cabin by far! Sorry for your tractor tire! 😥
WOW!! Great job to you and your Dad! Love seeing a father and son work so well together! God Bless You Both👍👍👍👍
That door looks killer guys !!!.... always a good Saturday when the Outsider notification comes up !!...Hello there Sr !.... lookin great on all thos close ups !!... well dun guys !!.... stay healthy from Wisconsin
your log cabin is going to be the most beautiful one in the world!
Your dad and yourself are well on the way to having a really good looking cabin and solid as a rock. Also I have a friend of mine is a roofer and he has a good size magnet that he uses to clean up roofing nails when they finish a job and he says it works really good. That might save you having to change a tire.
Howdy Brother- beautiful door! Thanks for sharing this. God bless y’all
Love the door; that made a rather satisfying episode, thank you!
The knowledge between these two is got to be awesome .
In Europe, during Medieval times, the claveaus were made to go through the doors and werbe bent over on the interiors of each door. A 7 or 8 inch claveau was required to go through the door. Each spike was hand forged by tan iron smith. Very expensive to have that many. The uuse was for protection by breaking through. Two very heavy duty pieces of wood were slid in on iron trestles, each having a trestle on either side, thereby giving even more protection fron break-ins. Keep up the great content. 😎😎
The claveaus are also referred to as door nails. They were considered a sign of wealth due to their cost. The were bent over, or “deadened” on the inside so they could not be easily removed. Hence the term “deader than a door nail “
Such beautiful craftsmanship. I have been watching this build since the beginning and my admiration grows with every video. Great door!
I've heard that in ancient Mesopotamia, the door was the most valuable part of most homes, because it was built from imported cedar. Congrats on your door, and your whole cabin, for that matter.
Cedar from Lebanon
Mesopotamia is the basis of architecture. We didn t invent much since this rising up of civilisation. And building comfortable homes.
Today new age make me laugh re discovering all what was current recepts of "good building".
And they show it as "modern environmentalist skills".! "sustainable technics" bla bla bla.
Except furnitures they invented everything. (they just began to make very simole coffers... To keep safe their cuneiform tablets where they archived their worthies by very first writing.. Counting).
@@johnssmith4005 in Irak and Iran they had what we call "cedar of lebanon".
It s during roman domination with dvt of trade by ships that this tree was used in europe too.
WOW!! Absolutely LOVE the door brother! Blessings to you and your family today!
I love the door! You built it & that’s a great completed look! I hate when ppl build a whole cabin then put a store bought regular home door on it! Makes no sense!
...like wearing a nice tux...with a pair of crocs. 😆
Anyway, thanks for the kind comment. 🙂👍
