I have never sat through a 59 minute video before. Hell, I have trouble making it through a 5 minute video. I'm 70 years old, and every damn minute counts for me. Bro, you are an artist, philosopher and builder. You made my eyes sweat. Oh ya, you're a pretty damn good film producer as well. I actually screen videos for 2 international film festivals. You should think about making one and submit it to a film festival somewhere in Alaska.

[@Mattinvent3]

Agreed, This video had amazing pacing, most youtubers don't realize how much that matters, I've seen plenty of videos I was interested in that were borderline unwatchable because they were so boring. I have a hard time sitting through videos over a few minutes long but this was great.

[@sasquatch885]

Excellent!👍🏻

[@officialmysteriousrider130]

Should build a inclosure for the propane bottles too if you already haven't it'll keep the animals away from them but besides that you did a brilliant job

I purchased 5 acres in mid-michigan, starting my cabin as soon as the weather agrees...cannot wait.

[@alaskacabinadventures]

Congrats!

[@kevindouglas8768]

I bought 35 acres of a mountain in southern Colorado 3 years ago. Now I've got a 32X444 building. I'm still in my 31 foot Dutchmen camper, but since spring is coming I know I'll be in the building soon. Keep the dream alive.

[@G_Rapids]

@@kevindouglas8768 My plans have changed unfortunately, my local building dept. denied the permit for a cabin as it does not meet the required minimum sqft requirement, so i ended up having to buy a 30' camper. Ill use that until i sell the land and look for something more remote.

[@kevindouglas8768]

@@G_Rapids You're NOT alone. This corrupt government has been denying us the ability to build on OUR OWN properties for years. That's why I spent 3 years in a 31' Dutchmen. Now I'm told that people can only stay in their campsters for a certain amount of time. I got a "permit" for a metal shop building. Monolithic concrete slab, all metal construction. It's 32X44, barn door, 2 walk in doors, and some huge ass windows. After the final inspection, I'll slip my ass right into that building. This summer I'm making a hidden earthship style man cave. I'll keep my 26 Jayco campster as a dummy, so they'll have to fly over to see anything, and all they'll see is a campster near my metal building. Food for thought....

[@OSRS_KQs]

@@G_Rapids Same situation here in Michigan. Can't buy land to do cabin due to minimum requirements. I'm now looking into Tennessee. In Newport (Cocke county), they have a company called Incredible Tiny Homes that sell modular certified tiny homes that count as a primary residence in Tennessee. They sell for as little as $15k on sales I've seen. It's practically my only affordable option due to regulations across the country being so strict on permits and build codes.

[@parker1ray]

I have been in the construction industry for over 40 years and at over 60 love to watch videos like these! I have a half acre homestead in south east Tennessee. I have been in these mountains with my wife of 38 years for over 30 years and tried Floridaaaaaa for four years, and got the heck out and moved back to my beautiful Tennessee mountains.

[@RichardBreitkreutz-g5r]

I am a North Idaho Native and am 30 years old. I am very seriously looking at trying to purchase a parcel of land somewhere in Tennessee, most likely Eastern. Do you have any tips or recommendations on locations, or just living there in general? I am hoping to accomplish similar to the posted video and do the small homesteading life. I truly does look like God's country in your state. Don't get me wrong, I will always love North Idaho, but it has gotten too expensive to live here and I don't exactly love the winters anyway. Also I am an Arborist and all the diversity of trees, especially the deciduous ones over there is amazing! Thank you!

[@travisvanalst4698]

Words can’t describe how happy it makes me to see that you’ve built your floor joists on the beams so the beams take the load. Literally everyone else just screws to the side of the beams so the screws/nails take the load of the cabin. My favorite build of all time.

[@oveazeus1]

I'm 74 years old and do a lot of DIY projects, albeit from sunny San Diego. Your video hooked me immediately. I'm not going to lament not being able to do the things that you do because of my age. But just know that as I watch you build this from scratch I comforted to know that at one time I could. Thanks for sharing these 59 minutes.

[@tombrenes2411]

You did what Dick has always done Inspire to build . . . Be one with nature . . . Never too old to learn new skills It’s one thing to read and watch. It’s another to do

[@lbsand976]

funny, a very good friend of mine used to fly hookers out to Dick's cabin quite often when the weather was good. and i''d bet a buck that ol Dick would have beat this guys drone into a pile with an axe handle.

[@907-q7u]

I remember when I first discovered Dick Proenneke. Some random person left a comment on a channel, when I viewed their account, the only video they had uploaded was "Alone in the Wilderness". I watched it a few times, bought the DVD set and the book, it changed how I was living my life, I wanted to move to Alaska and do what you're doing, right now. I decided to look up Prenneke's Wiki and learned that he passed away after he came home to live with his brother. I was shocked to see that he died in my home town, when I looked up his brothers address, it was walking distance from where I was living at the time. small World. I enjoy watching your videos and your journey. Keep living that dream!

[@907-q7u]

@@mikestirewalt5193 Yes, the "city" has definitely declined over the last few decades. Growing up, it was a nice, quiet retirement community with surrounding agricultural rich farmland. At one point, a stretch of Florida Avenue had banks on every corner that had a combined worth more than Fort Knox, now you have to avoid crime ridden neighborhoods while not running over j-walking zombies. It's sad!

[@TruckHouseLife]

Awesome video man, nailed it at the end on the last line "Life is about inventing who you want to become"🤙

[@play-doughsrepublic5121]

When I was in my twenties, I was homeless, alone and having no assets. At 64, I am now a retired teacher, an urban homeowner and own a ten-acre spot of land in northern Minnesota, finishing a cabin that I built myself. "Life is not about discovering who you are it is about inventing who you want to become." There is a lot of truism to that quote. Thank you for this video.

[@arancourt5623]

First I want to say I saw alone in the wilderness as a kid and Alaska has been my dream for years, and while I haven't made it yet, you're living the dream so rock on. Second, while you gotta do what you gotta do building your cabin, you are a far braver man than I working with power tools like that in the pouring rain. Keep on living your best life man.

[@melindajohnson3394]

Regardless when or how you make it up there, it's worth it. Well, except for salmon season then all bets are off! Based on what you want to do, plan carefully. I've met people who preferred the cruise, others who preferred more densely populated areas, and some semi hardcore outdoor fanatics. I was stationed for 2 1/2 years on Adak in the Aleutians, an entirely different adventure! No bears or moose, plenty of caribou, bald eagles, halibut and salmon fishing. Plenty of videos about the place on KZbin. Guides take people hunting there now. Base is a huge ghost town now.

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

Isn't Tyvek the best invention ever! We built a cabin quite similar to yours. We added 4' to the depth for bunkbeds and a closet. Otherwise the same dimensions. After vinyl windows were placed into their openings we used 6" ProtectoWrap (sp?) along the sides and then one strip across the top covering the side taping. Same for the door frame. A year after completing the cabin we screened in the front porch. What a difference it made keeping bugs outside where they belong. Your cabin should last a long time. Dick Proenneke would compliment you on the build. 👍👍👍

[@CliKnight]

I never knew Dick Pronnecke. But I am most positive. From all I have read and watched about him. That he would have appreciated and approved of your journey. Thank you for sharing. I loved the music.

[@GuadalupeVGrigsby]

Building an off-grid cabin in Alaska is a dream for many who seek independence, connection with nature, and a simpler way of living. While the idea may seem daunting, with careful planning, basic tools, and determination, it’s a project that anyone with a bit of determination can undertake.

[@zacksrandomprojects9698]

Nice build! You can sheet the walls before you stand them up and its easier and you dont need help from friends. At least a couple of the walls anyway. Its always good to have good friends around though. 🍻

Hi great video. Regarding Tyvek, FYI: According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), uncoated Tyvek does not contain PFAS, while coated Tyvek does contain PFAS. PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are engineered chemicals found in a variety of household and industrial applications. Part of the danger of PFAS is that they do not break down in the environment or in the body. Instead, they accumulate and can cause a number of health issues for the unsuspecting public.

New Subscriber here today, 03/02/24.. I'm a retired builder, and I don't sit through anyone's videos. BUT, Yours is the 1st I ever have sat through. I am impressed by your skills and Determination. Congrats to you, your wife, dog and friends. You did a Fantastic job. I can relate to completing a project for yourself and then sleeping in it. Couple yrs ago I built an addition to our home. The size we added was 24' x 32' , complete cathedral ceilings, sky lights, hot tub in master bedroom, etc. It was our castle we bult for the whole family, kids love it etc.. I remember after framing it, all weather tight, the wife said lets sleep in it .. Lol. So we grabbed some extra mattresses, blankets etc and slept under one of the huge skylights. Beautiful view, and just looking up at all the beams holding it all together, lots of angles, custom framing built ins etc. I really went to Town on it. But doesn't matter size or style, just laying there admiring your own work is so satisfying. God Bless you folks. Stay Safe Stay Healthy Positive and Blessed. Amen. Peace from Big Jim New Hampshire USA aka Boston Strong,, Cant wait to watch your other videos now... ( Any sign of SABAE ( Sasquatch ) out your way yet ? ) Cripes we got em here in good ole Cow ( New ) Hampshire.. lol. Big ones too, thank goodness friendly...

I had no skills. Knew nothing about 16” on center. But believed I could build a house. Me and my uncle built our house. Just have faith you can and someone to work with you and teach you the skills needed. Now I can do it all, electric, plumbing and heating also.

[@andrewscheelar9656]

16" on center is antiquated from the days when drywall was produced in 32in sections. A simple building like this you can build it 24in on center and save yourself 25% of your framing. If you're in a cold climate like him, I'd recommend you take that 25% savings and buy 2x6 framing, the more you insulate today, the less fuel/wood you need to procure in the future. That and controlling air leakage. Hitting R24 in the walls and R50 in the ceiling along with caulking common air gaps can go a long way to reduce your labour in the future.

My grandfather likes to watch these types of videos on the big screen tv at his house. This video came up and my family decided to watch it with him because it was pretty interesting…. until we got to the end. The last 10 minutes of the video, we were waiting for you to finish the edges of the door, but you never did. We kept waiting and waiting, but it never happened. Now our whole family is mad and screaming at the tv screen all because of the unfinished door. We are all disappointed at you. 10/10 video. Would watch again with the family.

[@k.bronson7343]

Great video. Lots of hard work. One idea I see a lot of cabin builders forget. Stacking firewood looks amazing and is a ready source close by for feeding a fire without having to get completely dressed to go get it. However, stacking it against any of the cabin walls gives a free path for termites to enter the place you spent so much time on. (see below) *To prevent termites from entering your cabin, you should store firewood at least 20-30 feet away from the exterior of your home: *Keep it away from your home: Woodpiles near your home can provide a way for termites to enter your home and cause damage. *Keep it off the ground: Store firewood on a rack or concrete blocks to make it harder for pests to access. *Keep it covered: A durable cover will keep your wood dry and less attractive to pests. *Keep it dry: Dry wood is less likely to attract pests. *Keep it ventilated: Stack your wood in rows that are no more than 4 feet high to allow air to circulate. *Only bring in what you need: Only bring in the wood you need to burn for the next couple of days. *Don't treat it with pesticides: Pesticides are flammable and can be dangerous. Looks great. Great job!

I, too, have a hard time sitting through a long video but watched all of this one. The difference in yours and most of the other cabin builds was your narration. It held my attention the entire time. So many others just build for 2 hours with nary a word spoken. Since I don’t know the first thing about building a cabin, it was helpful being guided through it. By the way, those window frames turned out great!

i have lived in alaska for 84 years. i have built over 300 houses, cabins, apartments, condos. you did a nice job on the bunk house. i only have 2 comments on materials, dont buy any more of that garbage tyvek (it has actually been outlawed in a few states) and no more plastic sheeting on the inside, it needs to breath. plastic will hold moisture in the walls. you might look into floating mosquito dunks, they look like a mini frisbee, and they are the color of skunk cabbage. they work really well in the pond.

Appreciated the end-to-end walkthrough, the scenery, the music, and hearing a little bit about how you manage both electricity and mosquitoes. The comment about property tax did perhaps raise an eyebrow considering that Alaska is #5 on the list of "states most dependent on federal funding," but one such editorial comment in an hour of video shows considerable restraint. ;) Oh, and I absolutely loved the scene with Norman getting wet even though he was "inside."

Spending time alone building something is always fun.

Brilliant, you pull it off, comfort, and peaceful atmosphere.

Idyllic. Beautiful and rustic but modern. Impressive work.
