Watching that made me envious. I envisioned a time before the industrial revolution when life was simpler and all man wanted was to enjoy a peaceful existence, be one with nature, and be left alone. As a city dweller, I am seriously contemplating jettisoning most of my worldly possessions and moving to rural America and spending the rest of my life closer to nature. The demands of urban living contribute to many of the neuroses and physical ailments that plague us city dwellers. I've experienced all that materialism has to offer. At this juncture in my life, I'm seeking serenity.

I'm in medical college in Paraguay now, but I had spend huge part of my life in a small farm of my family at the interior of Minas Gerais - Brasil. This distance is one of the biggest reasons to mine anxieties and unsatisfactions, in the nature everything always looked meaningfull, fluid and natural as well. This makes me question, if the void from the nature is reason (cause) of the sickness and the spiritual weakness the we see in the world today.

Makes me think of the work that went into building my brothers home in Maine. The house is from 1799 and the inside beams are exposed and it clearly shows the massive logs that were hand dressed with axes or some other types of tools as the tool marks and the uneven chunks carved from each log can be clearly seen. The squared logs in the ceiling are held together with pegs and are all over the house. The outside is clapboard and doesn’t reveal the actual construction and age of the place but the way house sits on the hill it has the look of an old cabin that’s been there for centuries. When I’m laying in bed at night looking at the ceiling I think of those revolutionary war era pioneers who built this house from the woods that used to be in the open fields surrounding it and imagine the hardships of those cold winters and harsh conditions for survival. Watching you build this small cabin with power tools makes it look easy next to what they did with hand tools and no electricity and managed to build a house perhaps 5-6 times the size of this little cabin. And what you did here is no easy task at that! Great job!

Logs tend to shrink and expand ("breath") to up to 6-8% during the year and during the use. When house is not used, logs are getting moisture and expand, when house is used (stove is lit) logs dry and shrink. Please note that this is not "logs can shrink and expand", this is "logs will 100% shrink and expand". So all the things described below WILL happen, not COULD happen. In your case the following will happen rather quickly. Nails connecting logs vertically will loosen, walls will loose structural integrity and will deform. Logs will shrink and will hang on window frame - either having huge gaps between them or just smashing window frame. Same for the door frame - door will stuck so hard, that the only way to get inside would be to cut the door off. Roof frame will deform. Cement you've used to fill the gaps between logs will crack and fall apart. Thus, you needed to: 1. Make sure to have gap above window frame (at least 8 cm in your case) and above door frame (at least 15 cm in your case). This should then be filled with some soft insulation like moss, synthetic foam, etc. 2. Window and door frames should be connected to walls with spike grooves or sliding metal connectors. 3. Roof frame should be connected to walls with sliding metal connector. 4. Logs should have spike grooves for the whole length to let every next row to more securely sit on the previous row and to decrease gaps. Gaps are filled with some soft insulator, like moss, jute, etc. 5. Logs should be connected with wooden nails connecting three rows of logs. This secures vertical integrity and make sure walls stay vertical while "breathing". 6. Logs should have proper connection carved in corners to make sure walls are securely connected to each other and to decrease gaps. In short, you've done a huge job, but sadly, your house will fall apart shortly. Considering the weight of wood it has, it is very dangerous to stay inside.

@sharonmiller6436
@sharonmiller6436 2 жыл бұрын
Solar panels in the woods - not a whole lot of sun would get through. Resin or hard glue is too rigid between the logs. They might even have trouble with the mortar but that is a traditional way to do it. There is a product out on the market that looks like the mortar but stays somewhat flexible so the drying and shrinking of the lots doesn't break it. The logs may be from dead trees but they are still damp from being in the snow etc.

I'm currently working on a cutting prescription in Colorado pine forests, also thinning overgrown woods. our site sponsor actually encourages us to leave some dead trees as they provide important habitats for a variety of animals. don't know if you want to encourage that on your property or not but it might be something to look into with regards to wildlife in your area. I know I've seen a couple woodpeckers on the dead standing trees we've left behind

I would have dug cemented concrete piers and sunk logs to raise it up out of the snow.

There is a reason why logs are notched. There is a reason why people use wooden nails connecting every three logs, not just metal nails. There is a reason why people are not using fixed connectors while connecting window, door and roof frame to log walls. There is a reason why people tend to leave the gap above the door and window frame. And this reason is: logs are "breathing" - dry and shrink, getting moisture and expand. And this process will never end, even after 100 years.

Hey, Kevin! I just noticed (and I may be late to the party). It looks like you can get gravity to do a ton of your busy-work, like de-limbing trees both as they fall and those trees soon to be felled. Using the tractor to pull the tree’s base away from the stump is THE way to control things. How about aiming the fall between two closely spaced adjacent dead or dying trees so that, as it falls, the felled tree is dragged out between them, stripping most of the limbs off the felled tree and its neighbors? If your ideal pull direction is blocked, use that blocking tree as a “pulley”, and pull the chain around the base. Don will have a ball dragging those limbs to a common burn pile, without nearly as much chainsaw de-limbing work.

Honestly, I'm unsure if investing is a wise move right now. Take note of how frequently things fail. As I still have some time before I retire, I'm still looking for a better strategy to invest my money despite reading charts and predictions from well-known investors from the past and present. In order to generate passive income, I want to build a solid and reliable portfolio.

Awesome build and video! Questions, 1-would it not have been easier to have debarked before construction? And 2- with so much untreated wood in direct contact with the earth, won’t that lend to damp and rotting? Much love brothers 👊

you guys could've saved so much time if you flattened 2 sides of each log for those walls. they'd have slotted into place nicely with some insulation between each log then you could put up wall frames, insulate, then nail osb panels to the frame. good build though.
