If you would take a light brush across it when your done, it would take out the rest of the imperfections. I'm 30 + yr Mason, that's what we do when we lay stone.

[@Workin_roadtrip]

You guys should actually talk to your viewers, this silence is mind numbing, I won’t be supporting your nonsense

[@karencraft1751]

My late parents built a cabin many years ago, your journey reminds of those times when I was young!! Wonderful 😊

[@mag1071]

The two of you work so well together in sharing the work load in building this cabin. Amazing!

[@ukrainian_homestead_by_julia]

Wow, just wow! Look at what these amazing folks have accomplished all on their own. It's truly inspiring to see what can be achieved with passion, determination, and a little bit of elbow grease. Their remarkable work is a shining example that reminds us to never underestimate the power within ourselves to create something truly extraordinary❤😊

[@Ron_Masterjohn]

Yes and I have not watched all the videos don’t think I ever saw then he and power tools and just regular small hammers and no framing hammers.That bow saw sure looks like it cm in handy.

[@Ron_Masterjohn]

Amazing work guys and had to be in great shape when u started and then really good shape when you finished. Don’t think you have and problems heating and cooking with all those trees to use as firewood. Awesome going Jackery with solar panels.

Couldn’t be prouder if you were my own kids! Really excited to see you further develop this oasis you’re creating

That’s too kind!! Thank you :)

[@victorsturgeon1031]

What a great couple you are, working side by side in harmony with each other. fantastic.

[@connieparker8896]

The cutest couple ever, patience and perseverance, My father was a General contractor so we’re my 4 Brothers, me being the girl, I worked on every job site, it was so rewarding and an absolute pleasure to get to work as a team with my family, I am so proud of you two, I know you have worked on other jobs as well, you just know way to much not to,, I’m 70 yrs now and I remember using all the same hand tools, really satisfying to watch you and brought back so many wonderful memories, God bless you both, keep up the great work, can’t weight to see the inside of your beautiful home

[@slimpickins3425]

I discovered your chanel by accident , it was the one that you were first building the cabin. I fell asleep watching some other vlogs, and woke up 2 am and there you were! I just closed the laptop, and when I woke up I watched the whole thing, and after one other (this one) I subscribed! I love what you guys are doing, but what makes any chanel a keeper for me is the people , and you two are awesome and I love watching! Im glad I have lots to catch up on, so you will be hearing from me soon!

That's awesome! Glad we're fun to watch, and thanks for following along!

[@jeffreysanger5499]

Very good work Watch you and your wife build your cabin, it was nice to see you guys not put dead lines on yourselves.....no drama. You are both very good at messaging, amazing job of sizing logs for the floor. House went together with very little talking. Very impressive, thanks for sharing, only one fear , putting plastic on the underside of the roof in winter will cause the house to sweet. Moisture from our breath needs to get out, it may take a year or two before you notice that. All in all very good workmanship

[@connieparker8896]

Please show your finished furnished inside of your house,, can’t wait!!!!

[@davidrohlader3498]

Oh, I almost forgot, a FROE for splitting things like your stair treads. Fun watching you, thank you very much!!!

[@JamesAShepherd10]

This episode emphasizes the importance of careful planning, skillful craftsmanship, and a deep connection to the environment. With each new addition, the cabin becomes more than just a shelter-it’s a home that supports a simpler, more self-reliant way of life.

[@normanmerrill1241]

Well done…Jackery demonstrated excellent judgment in supporting your channel…stay safe…

[@barrybohnow5282]

I Wish I had the enthusiasm and drive you two do to start and finish your project !! Your Attention to detail and your unflinching work ethic is a sight to behold !! I can`t wait until you have finished your build to see the end product !!! Keep up the good work !!

Thank you so much :) it means alot!!

[@dieterwidera6317]

Unbeschreiblich Euer Enthusiasmus, dass ist schon aussergewöhnlich was ihr geleistet habt. Ich bin begeistert!!!😀

[@elviraobregon4732]

Hooked on your channel binge watching awake all night. On episode 57. Awesome work, can hardly wait for next episodes.

[@bobflores]

More and more luxuries with every passing week. You guys are making a very comfortable home. Thanks for the video.

[@judyschepp8748]

Hello Nick & Maela, you two are doing a great job on your cabin. Love the workmanship, co-operation, and affection you guys show. So glad you are safe from the fires!!!! Take care and be safe. From Wisconsin♥️💕💜🥰

Thanks, Judy! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@yvonnesimmons9001]

Congratulations you two. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. It is a testament to you both that you decided to redo the chinking. This new application looks much better and will provide that protection and loss of heat in the winter. Working in northern Canada in bug season is really hard. I know, living in northern British Columbia, Late May and June was for determined heroes. It is a wonderful feeling building and learning as you go. My husband has long passed, but we had some wonderful 40 years. Keep at you both, right now you are just thinking about building your own home, but you are really building memories - and they live forever ❤❤

Thank you, Yvonne :) it was a pleasure to read your kind words!!

[@lucillereneebrown8786]

I agree , 😊

[@clairelevasseur9434]

Sorry for your lost...

[@ShaneMcKee-e7o]

This is a true testament of perseverance. The two of you are very inspiring.

[@ChrisHafenrichter-d5i]

I have watched almost every episode I have never seen you two bend one nail.

[@MarthaR.Durán]

It was nice to watch this second video of this wonderful young couple. I’m a 71 year old grandma and I love to watch what they are doing in their cabin; their future home! Congratulations to both of you. Watching from Falls Church, Virginia❤️

[@dennisbeaver5958]

Always a pleasure to watch you two working together and the way you share the work! Beautiful job on those stairs, BTW! They came out great!

Thank you so much :)

[@p.a.jacobs5514]

I am really impressed with your wood cuts,perfect fit!!!!!

[@papakarlo8686]

[@oliverkaiser1139]

Just stayed up all night binge watching up to Ep. 42 . Nick, Maela is a keeper. She wore out a pair of shoes in one night, 😂. Take her out and buy her some good hiking 🥾 shoes, she deserves them. Y'all are an awesome couple.

[@TarunKiller-c3m]

I am always proud of u guys ...u ar always using hand tools ,its awsum .....god bless u both ......with lot of energy to built more .....

Thank you :)

[@davidwhite5931]

You are both amazing and inspirational. I especially like the way you collaborate so well and respect each other. If only more people were like that. Thank you for allowing us to watch you both work.👍

[@tomschwab9230]

Dude !!! . . . she is definitely a KEEPER !!! . . any woman that knows how to build is priceless !!! . . . just say'n !!!

[@sandralnwebster3204]

That has to be one of the most tedious jobs in your build-chinking! You two are so deter- mined like the energizer bunnies! Your build is amazing and reflects the work you have put into it!❤The other side of Canada-BC! Cheers,Sandy&Andy

Thank you :) looking back, we don’t know how we did it ahaha

[@Oregontrailblazin]

Awesome Build ! I must be the only one in the world that starts a fire and throw green Materials in the fire to help the bugs on their way out of camp ?

[@richardwhitelock7779]

It makes a pleasant change to see something being built without the use of electric tools, keep it up , very impressed !😅

[@bobf12]

Yes, after a few days a shower is a needed necessity. lol. Your cabin is looking great.

[@cathybrewer8958]

The shower turned out great, really good job on the steps, so secured. It always amazes me how much you two do with each job you create. Enjoyed this video also.

Thanks, Cathy!! The steps went through so many modifications before we finally placed them in ahah Take care until next episode :)

[@ronbishop351]

You kids have done a wonderful job on building your own home. Take a Bow!! Enjoy your home and enjoy yourselves. By the way my vote is your wife is up for best wife of the decade." I just sat in amazement watching her working so hard with you. Take care..

[@helenhull7768]

I don't know what to say....WOW!!!! Beautiful and amazing!!!! Hard work patience and so well put together! Enjoy your rewards!!!!

[@spokequint2971]

So glad you were not involved with the fires! Being retired and living in the states (NC) I am totally in awe of what you two have accomplished so far. Originally from WI, I know the bugs must have been one of the major hurdles. I could not stop watching! Thank you for letting me experience (through you two) one of my dreams since a kid. You did it! Your skill set is top notch! Good luck and I will think of you two enjoying the most glamorous scenery I have seen in a while... WOW you two!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats....

[@richardliles4415]

It’s so nice to see that you have your shower installed and mostly working, that Hass to be a big plus for you both. I thought the stairs you made the end of the cabin were very nice looking, I like them very much. Thanks to the both of you for a very fun And interesting video.

Thank you, as always :) glad you enjoyed it!!

[@barryavent2694]

Hard work and patience has paid off. Enjoy your channel.

Great work I love the chemistry I see with you both. Unity is strength coupled with love and respect

[@ellybeann]

i love watching your guys new videos on saturday mornings!

[@brucewitcpalek5120]

First and foremost, I would like to say how happy I am for the both of you that Zachary reached out to you and is supplying you with some power. I do not know two individuals who deserve it more than the two of you. Also, I am from the United States but I believe July 1 is Canada day where ours is on July 4Th. So happy Canada Day if I have that right !!😊. I could watch the two of you work all day long because you seem to be in sync with each other. I’ve said it 100 times, but I’m gonna say it again the two of you absolutely impress me. Catch you on your next video and in the meantime, may God continue to bless both of you. ❤😊👏✌🏼😎🥇🥇🥇

Well, thank you again, Bruce! As always, your comment make our day :) Thank you for the good wishes on Canada Day!! Same goes for you, tho a little bit late, for you guys 4th of July!! Hope you had a great time with some good fireworks ;)

[@gman64able]

One of the best videos I've watched and the chemistry that you two have is off the charts

[@CleopatraThomas-c4m]

Looks extremely strong even storm or hurricane would run seeing this cabin.Good work and I am proud of you people and I feet for you seeing you on the roof top, me glad when you come down safe.

Ich finde so toll, euch zu zusehen. Ohne viel Worte, Jeder weiß, was zu tun ist. Hoffentlich habt ihr nicht den ganzen Sommer so viele Mücken 👍😉

[@teddryden6489]

I don't normally watch this kinda of stuff, but your videos (while promotional with the product placement) were well done, straight to the point. Subscribed!

[@TerryW5379]

Nice job! If you turn your nail with the point up then tap it with your hammer to dull it, it’ll keep the wood from splitting.

[@lancepearson4035]

Great progress with the grouting stairs and shower - thanks for sharing - you guys are awesome

Thank you :)

[@jamescurrie8548]

Best cabin ,build , I've seen, you, both, were excellent, no talking, no bickering, no, nonsense, good job, great looking cabin,

[@davelarsen9847]

Really fun to watch this one, a lot going on! You guys have so much patience splitting those steps! Glad you're safe from the fires!

Glad you enjoyed it, Dave! We actually love splitting woods ahaha the sound it makes make it worth the work :)

[@richardmarino5658]

Great job(s) You work very well together. The quality of your work and videos is very good. I'm glad the fires haven't affected you. Stay well and happy.

Thank you! Stay safe too :)

[@suepeterson5675]

Very very nice ! Smart thinking on the spray foam to level out the tub/shower base. Such a beautiful cabin home. 👍👍😊

[@johnhenderson8360]

I love your channel and your workmanship is outstanding. My first question was going to be about the fires, thanks for your comment on them. I would love to know how your chinking works out. I put chinking on a lean-to (three sided log structure) and I used two different materials, Mortar mix and the other was a USG product Wood Fiber Plaster. My log were not dry so as the logs dried the chinking would pull away. Personally I liked the wood fiber plaster better. I used light weight chicken wire wadded up and where the chinking caught the wire it stayed pretty well. I think your bent over nails will work. Please keep us posted.

[@derekadams729]

What an amazing achievement! And not one power tool used in the whole process start to finish. 👍👍

[@PhilipRosner]

Stunning performance on the expert level you guys are amazing you’ll be a beautiful place to raise children !

Thank you again :) glad you are enjoying it!! Take care!

[@petersauer9496]

You should be using Mortor mix for between the logs outside and inside using that wire mesh helps a lot but you do not need spikes to hold it in place. The two of you work well together and your both doing equal work and wonderfull work. Peter

[@dimatteo806]

Ihr beiden seit echt ein bemerkenswertes junges Paar. Ich wünsche euch viel Glück und Gesundheit auf eurem weiteren Weg.

[@giggitygiggitygoofg6069]

It maybe worth considering changing one of your front upstairs windows out for a larger opening one and building a nice deck up in top of your nearly flat roof and hey presto you've got yourself a safe private balcony. Inside you could put in a really nice bridge and turn it into a cracking useful feature. Its wot I thought you were building before when you were building you unclosed outside area. It would also free up that inclosed area as an all year round outdoor kitchen. .great work both of you amazing. .

[@ivetteguzman5730]

You guys are awesome ❤love the shower 🚿
