Rewatching this, and I agree that I didn't think it was that tall until both of you were standing underneath the first one! That is the only thing I really don't like about an A frame, how short they are but that is so huge!
What I saw today was not only a very well thought out plan and execution. But a great marriage tool. Seemed to really minimize the complaining and arguing. Well done, kudos to you both!
I don’t know the background of the majority of your audience but as a contractor for 40 years I’m often asked about truss angle and how we figure it out. Thanks to technology measuring rise/run for slope ratios and Pitch then using a construction calculator saves brain cells for sure. No more homemade protractors and plumbers bobs. Could be a good tutorial for a short for your viewers?❤
@@jefflinnell8492 it may as well be rocket science to someone with no construction experience. You and I may know how to figure out angle from rise and run but most with no experience may not. My entire point
The long anticipate building of the cabin has come true. It's unbelievable that of what you two have accomplished in lifting the heavy wood. Very proud of you all. 😅😅😅😅
O, how this video takes me back apx 40 years. My husband and I built our cedar home together and had a wonderful time building. This video touches my heart and is so poignant. Enjoy each other and your youth. As wonderful as it is, it, too is fleeting. Yall are such an inspiration that I long to be young again ☺️☺️ May God continue to Bless you guys !!!!
As an old carpenter once told me "You can never brace enough, if it blows out or falls down you should have braced more" 35 years of doing concrete work I've never had a blow out thanks to his teaching. I would have done more diagonal bracing. Enjoy the dream and the ride. Your doing more then most people your ages can ever dream of.
Thanks for sharing another great video you two, oh let's not forget the supervisor of building & chief of security Nelly!!! Progress is a beautiful thing
You guys really work well together it’s nice to see that really helps to build a strong bond which intern strengthens your love for each other.🥰 Yeah that’s why I really enjoy watching your videos. Keep up the good work and above all stay safe! 😉👋✌️ God bless.. 🙏
Its going to be an amazing i love that youre going to have bedrooms, but so many people build tiny cabins and then regret its not big enough later so please make it a goodsize for a family, you both work great together xx
“Are you fake sleeping?” Thump thump thump. And his head sticking out looking at you- great shots and great progress on the build. Thank you for sharing.
Man its always exciting seeing the frame go up. All those weeks/months of work to just get a foundation and floor up and then in just a day or 2 Poof you can really start seeing your house! Looking great and thanks for sharing!
This is a really awesome cabin design. I love taking into consideration all the different styles and techniques I see in all sorts of cabin building videos I see and so far this is one of the most appealing. One day when I build my first cabin, I may just have to go a-frame!
Great work. Side 4 x 8 plywood makes great shear wall to super stabilize structure. I watch Simple Living Alaska and they are super hard workers. You are equal to them and the best of all Alaska homesteaders. I really enjoy your show. Grew up in upstate NEW YORK AND SPENT SUMMERS HELPING MY UNCLE in Pennsylvania on his farm but that was 65 years ago. Keep the great videos coming!
You two took on a lot of hard work and made it look easy,everything you did was to make the structure strong with the least amount of work,but even working as efficiently you did it was still hard work. You have my deep respect and may your strength and good health be with you always.
Exciting times. I look forward to watching you build your A frame cabin. You work so well together. Great team. Thank you for sharing. Take care from Cape Cod Massachusetts ✌️🇺🇸
Hello! So glad as you must be that you have started on your home. My home is a 30 X 30, 4 bedroom, 1 1/2 bathroom home in a small village in upstate NY. It is big enough that my three children had their own room and we were quite comfortable. Life changes as the kid grow older and leave for the start of their own life. Now the rooms are a sewing/quilting room and an office. That's plenty of room for the grandkids and dogs. I am unsure if I like an A-Frame but your frame seems to have plenty of space and storage. I saw a Canadian A-Frame you-tube video that was just as large as yours. The couple who are building it have added 2 large dormers on each side of the main frame. One is the entrance which has a large closet on the second floor. The other, I believe holds the downstairs bathroom. The dormers make up for the loss of space in the walls. So many designs for A-Frame I am learning about. Sending my hopes for a successful build.
I'm always amazed how people know so much about building. My husband and I can barely hammer a nail. You are both working so hard to accomplish your dreams. Looking forward to watching you videos going forward. Many Blessings!
Impressive on how quickly the lower part went up. Thanks for all the explanations of why you are doing what you have done. So many questions but I know they will be answered as the build goes on! Stay safe until next time.
I really appreciate your expiations. There are far to many channels that just video without letting those of us who can no longer do what you are doing. Thank You.
I envy you two so, you are very fortunate to be able to build your home in such a beautiful place and with your spouse no less! Thank you for the explanation of what exactly you were building and the way you arrived at all the calculations that are involved with framing construction. I run heavy equipment and have done just about every type of site construction but carpentry is one thing I’ve never done and so it’s good to learn new things from videos like this. Best of luck to you both! 👍🇺🇸💪👊
my folks and i have always built our own home so i know what you are going through. it is a lot of work but well worth it in the end. the no.1 advantage is you don't have 30yrs of debt to pay off if you had a contractor do it for you! good luck with the mosquitos!
Wow, it looks fabulous! You guys are kicking butt now. I hope you get it dried in quickly. You both seem to work well together. Thanks for sharing this adventure with us.
I'm not a home builder of any kind I've never seen this style before but for two people it's ingenious. 10 ft sealings and the loft I can't wait to see it done great job in the work and finding the design.
Great Job you two! You did your framing alot like we did for my 16 x 32 ft greenhouse, and it survived the earthquake of 2018. Looking forward to the rest of the build.
Isn’t life a better place when all the planning and hard work starts to become real. You’re always putting well thought out plans into actual results that follows the detailed master plan . Happy for you. Not sure what your future plans are but your home can expand to accommodate your needs going forward.
Excellent content. Teamwork and prep is all. As a selfbuilder, it is satisfying to see the results of ones own work. Your cabin will be amazing. Thanks for posting best from the UK.
I'm so excited for you two! Thanks for filming. You've got some beautiful scenery there, and the fog is kinda enchanting. I'd love to see some more of your goats, and how's your garden doing? Keep on keepin' on.
You guys make a awesome team I know from experience what it takes to build like this be proud of what you have done looking forward to see the next phase 👍👋🇨🇦
Well done after cutting and fixing a hundred or so roofs, buttressed supports and mansards. I understand how difficult and energy sapping it can be. You’re doing good and you’re past the difficult stuff, keep safe and be careful to ensure the sway bracing does not come loose until you are corner to corner braced.
Fantastic. Great planning gets you great execution. I got a kick out of the "puppy" when he was awakened by the strap when you cut it off of the load of lumber. It is fun watching you build this cabin and I am waiting on the edge of my seat to watch the top half go up. Take care, Be safe, Have some fun, jack
Dam I always knew you two had a lot of grit. However this was truly a lot of work. You two had to have been sore building everything by yourselves. No complaining just working for the goal. Very impressive job. Just shows what you can do if you want something bad enough. Great video thank you for sharing your lives with us ❤.
Looks good. I would suggest adding another row of fire-block between the floor and what you have now. Interested in how your splice will be made for the rest of the skeleton framing. Be safe.

Where our grandparents smarter than us? They used mathematics, a well trained mind...paper and pencil to figure it out. Ah the good old days.
Plumb bob. Plumbers had nothing to do with it 😂.
@@chuckd5819 fat fingers or spell check?? lol
It's not rocket science. You can simply do it with a framing square , that's why they named that square a framing square
@@jefflinnell8492 it may as well be rocket science to someone with no construction experience. You and I may know how to figure out angle from rise and run but most with no experience may not. My entire point

I really appreciate how you explain what you're doing and why. You two work together like a well oiled machine! Great progress made!
I appreciate that you explain what you are doing and why. Thank you for a great channel
Well done. Much respect for your skill and hard work. A frame is the way to go up north where snow load is a concern. And they look good too.
Thank you! Yes, we would prefer to not need to remove snow from the roof in our older age.
As an old carpenter once told me "You can never brace enough, if it blows out or falls down you should have braced more" 35 years of doing concrete work I've never had a blow out thanks to his teaching.
I would have done more diagonal bracing. Enjoy the dream and the ride. Your doing more then most people your ages can ever dream of.
Looks so easy from our side. Fantastic to see you both working so well and fast together. See you next week! Thanks
This is awesome guys! Hopefully you are super proud. You busted your butts. Have a great week.
Wow! You two are doing a great job
Thanks for sharing another great video you two, oh let's not forget the supervisor of building & chief of security Nelly!!! Progress is a beautiful thing
As you were standing up the last rafter I was praying for your safety So happy and hopeful for you to
Great job, guys! I love how you occasionally stop and tell the audience what you're doing and why. Keep it up and best of luck. Kind Regards!
You guys really work well together it’s nice to see that really helps to build a strong bond which intern strengthens your love for each other.🥰
Yeah that’s why I really enjoy watching your videos. Keep up the good work and above all stay safe! 😉👋✌️ God bless.. 🙏
Wow, what great progress you two made on your cabin. The view will be awesome. Good job.
You are doing a great job. At least your not shy on the fasteners. As a carpenter of almost 50 yrs. I enjoy watching. Thanks Dan in Alberta , Canada.😂
That's really going to be so nice. I can't wait till the next video. Great job 👍

HUGE amount of progress for one video. Great job🎉
I watched wild wonderful off grid do same maybe 5 - 7 years ago. You two are living an awesome life. So proud of you both

Hard work from a great team! We build so much unused home

Oh wow that looks so much bigger when you stood it up. Great job looks awesome
You guys are doing so well and it's so beautiful there. Be very proud of yourselves

Excellent Construction Method
For Just 2 Individuals !
Thanks for Sharing !
Wow, it looks fabulous! You guys are kicking butt now. I hope you get it dried in quickly. You both seem to work well together. Thanks for sharing this adventure with us.
The A frame is going to look so good surrounded by the forest. I really like how you guys did a template to build everything. Makes sense, good work!!
That really looks good - A lot of planning - Smart...! Thanks for sharing - Stay safe... Loved seeing the lab....
Wow, how impressive. Y’all got an incredible amount of work done quickly.
Good job Chris & Katie team work, enjoy your 😊
Thank you!
It was very quick to install. You are one step closer to the finish. You have great skills. From Turkey with love.❤️❤️

Great to watch you two working together, you are doing an excellent job, it’s looking great so far. Thanks for sharing.

Great Job you two! You did your framing alot like we did for my 16 x 32 ft greenhouse, and it survived the earthquake of 2018.

Quel merveilleux travail d'équipe.
Vous faites danser mon cœur de joie ❤
❤️ Thank you!
I'm so excited for you two! Thanks for filming. You've got some beautiful scenery there, and the fog is kinda enchanting.
I'd love to see some more of your goats, and how's your garden doing? Keep on keepin' on.
It looks wonderful! I know y’all are excited! Thanks for sharing!
That is one of the best constructed cabins I have seen
I could clearly see the inner volume getting in wonderful shape. looking so nice!
You guys make a awesome team I know from experience what it takes to build like this be proud of what you have done looking forward to see the next phase 👍👋🇨🇦
Now that’s teamwork well done looking great . All the best from outback Western Australia
Love it. Looks huge once the A’s are up. You work so well together.

Nice templates, Chris. Templates are so effective for speed and consistency. Nice progress and nice job. Love the preciseness.
You work so well together!
You guys really crushed it and I really like how beefy you’ve built everything!
Your cabin is coming along great, thanks for sharing
Looks good. I would suggest adding another row of fire-block between the floor and what you have now. Interested in how your splice will be made for the rest of the skeleton framing. Be safe.
Wow, it's looking good.
Y’all have done amazing! Look forward to see the next episode.
Very impressive….going to be so rewarding know you have achieved all buildings yourself….good job….thoughts from Scotland….
Very enjoyable to watch you making your dream a reality. Fantastic progress. Can’t wait to see what you do with the cabin and the rest of your land
I have to say this is a mighty cool A-frame.
Great Job! That is going to be one solid A-Frame.
Great job! Ya'll are going to have a beautiful home with awesome views. 💜
