I make a screened door for my off grid log cabin with wood I milled from trees on the property using hand tools. In the garden, I harvest zucchini and sun dry it for storage to get me through the winter.

A year ago if anyone would have told me I would spend 40 minutes of my life watching someone making a screen door for a log cabin I would tell them they were crazy. Not only do I watch I look forward to every new video regardless of the task or topic. I truly admire the man, his skills, and his commitment to self reliance.

Shawn honestly has one of the best channels on KZbin. Interesting, well shot, informative, relaxing, entertaining, and well shot. And he seems like just a straight forward kinda guy. What you see is what you get, no sales pitch, no gimmicks. And in a world of corporate KZbin channels and sponsorships it really rings true to people.

We have a screened porch off the back of our house and I will never own a house that does not have one. Best thing ever for morning chat with a cup of coffee, or eating barbecue from the grill. It's just so nice this time of year to enjoy outdoor air without bugs biting us. Your wife will love it!

Lights and a pretty door on my favorite room of the cabin. I see some possible storage space in the overhead of the porch but I bet Shawn James is way ahead of me in thinking of it. I can still hear some adult in my family saying ,"If you slam that door (meaning screen door) one more time you're getting a whipping") by which time I was out of sight running full out.

Watching you and Cali work amidst heavy rain, Cali with a droopy wet face so cute, and that thunder, followed by the raining of pipe stems, as we say in The Netherlands, to see the lush green forest, all mid summer, it's a lovely contrast with the early springtime vibes in The Netherlands, with trees still leafless. Cooking in your outdoor kitchen with that emerald forest around, a roof over head, all safe, I think I could spend all day in that kitchen! Only leave it to bring the scraps to the goats, or the hens. I hope you'll find yourself in such an outdoor kitchen again, in due time. This former homestead was a true little village in a way, and that bark-barn had its spooky atmosphere for sure. Great for telling ghost-stories, inside, with the light of a lantern. What we can make with our hands can be made again.... and again... isn't it a comfort to know that? Part of self-reliance ;)

Everyone else comes to see what Shawn is doing, I come to look at Cali. Good for a little spirit brightening on a dull day. I've noticed that although Cali is named and responds to her name, you've taken to calling her pup and she loves it. Also I notice the dog pool is filling nicely.

The porch door was a great wet day/undercover project. It's good to see your pond filling from the rain now. The sun-dried zucchini chips look delicious too, Shawn.

Well, I see Cali’s Pond is getting deeper and deeper!♥️ Very exciting. I love the screen door Shawn. I got one for my apartment this past April and just love it. Would be better if I had a whole porch like you! 🤣☺️ Enjoyed seeing the natural dehydrator. Excellent idea. Friday’s are my happy days cause I know you and Cali are coming to visit me. ♥️♥️ thanks Cali and Shawn!🙏

You have become one with nature. What a pure and self sufficient way to live. It must be so wonderful to be so up close and in touch with the pulse of the forest. Your garden is so healthy and bountiful, which must make meal time something to look forward to. Such a great way to dehydrate your food. I will have to get my husband to make me some screen forms to do this. Presently I use a dehydrator but you can definitely process more at one time by your method. Your videos are always so educating which makes them so enjoyable to watch. You did a great job on your screen door. Did not take you too long at all. One thing you need to grow is a rose bush for your wife. You can make all kinds of beautiful scented and medicinal products from the rose petals and hips. Maybe a bit of lavender too. You do have a woodland paradise there ... Well Done! Gosh, you should feel quite an accomplishment from all your hard work. Your family must be very proud of you. :)

For me, it's spontaneous and automatic. As soon as you show the first clip of Cali, what comes out of my mouth is: "There's that sweet girl !" She LOVES to "help" dad. Nice meal! With the limited space, I'm surprised you didn't have the door swing outward. Good lookin' screen door.

Sean . I really enjoy and appreciate your videos , your hard work and dedication reminds me of my late Dad who was a Rancher and a Farmer here in south Alabama . He built a shelter for ever combine , tractor, discs , plow, etc that he owned , these machines were cleaned and oiled after each use. He built his own fences, gates , barns, cattle sheds, cattle trough , cattle loading shuts , as well as constant repairs on our wood frame house., he always had a project , just as you his saws and blades were properly cared for . Our home had two fireplaces for heat, to this day I have kept the bathroom kerosene heater to remind me , be great full for what you have, God Bless You and keep you always safe . .

Rain at last! Your garden is looking lush and it is great to see that it is producing crops. That courgette was huge and what a great way to preserve it too. Now your porch is screened, it will be a pleasant place to sit in the summer.
