Just stumbled across this video. I must say you did an awesome job keeping the authentic look. I am trying to get some ballpark figures on building something similar with myself doing most the work. I have always been a jack of all trades by learning from many previous past jobs. My opinion is that if you know what you are doing, you can do any job (for yourself) as good as, if not better than "so called" professionals. Reason being that you want the best for yourself and will take more time and care to do it right. For contractors it's just a job and a paycheck. Not saying that professionals don't take pride in their work, but that trait is getting scarcer by the day. I am thankful you weren't one of those people who refuse to share the cost of their projects. It's like it's a sin or some secret best kept to themselves. I just don't understand the purpose for that. Anyway, your video was very helpful.

I've been looking up info trying to learn how much a log cabin costs to have built. So your video popped up. When I heard "Lisbon, Ohio" I had to watch the whole video. I'm from East Liverpool. Lights from Roger's sale. Not many people will have a clue what you were talking about. For them, let's just say Roger's sale is a place all the locals have fond memories of. It was cool to hear them mentioned on here. The work you did on your cabin is amazing!

Loved this. By the way Johnny Appleseed visiting my kindergarten class in 95 is one of my favorite memories from school

[@logcabinlifestyle]

That’s awesome. I visit our school every year as well.

You’re truly an inspiration. I hope someday I can build my own cabin and give as much back to my community as you do. Thank you for sharing

Beautiful home and beautiful sentiment. Yes! When I have up dreams of a huge lucury house and moving to a big city (I did move but I came back to my small hometown where I grew up) and Armani suits and things... I found freedom. I love being in my small north Georgia hometown. A slower, simpler life. I can breathe. I found my faith. I became a better father. All because i decided simple living was the way to go. I am happy. Seems we have a lot in common. I love this.

You have a useful set of skills, you were willing to put in the time and effort, you had comradery and goodwill from those around you, not to mention the amount of luck you had in gathering materials and property. It is unfortunate not all of us can end up with the same set of circumstances, but kudos to you for making it happen, I am sure it was not easy! I applaud you good sir!

[@logcabinlifestyle]

No, not easy at all. Thank you my friend

[@mschottelk]

It's a breath of fresh air to happen upon a KZbin video of this caliber.

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Thank you my friend

[@uscwatts]

It's inspiring for a variety of reasons. It also shows that the sum of the whole is much, much greater than the sum of the parts when you put a highly talented person in charge.

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Thank you my friend

I certainly could live there. If I had a job there. I certainly don't think I could build it. You are the man, richer than most and it not just because of the cabin. Good speed.
