Building ROOF Structure for Log Cabin | My Grandfather helps me

[@wtfBrad]

To those saying he "cheated" with the tractor. You must realize back when these were being built, there was a group working together. Meaning extra hands to help get the roofing parts up. The fact that the tractor has been used only a couple times out of all that has been done is still remarkable. Watching you work these pieces together and seeing what it is becoming is amazing and relaxing. No music... just the sounds of nature and you building. That walk though the forest was beautiful!! Thank you for sharing this adventure! Can't wait to see your next post!!

[@SkashTheKitsune]

I wasn't thinking he was cheating, back in the days when England was first invaded they built houses in groups, everyone sleeps in whatever houses were finished and they build more... they would put todays construction industry to shame, they still farmed more better and they fought better too... kinda miss watching those series it's the closest thing to Historians delving into stand up comedy

[@Hoch134]

We also have to consider that he COULD have done it by hand but he would have wasted a lot of resources for another wooden ramp. Also, he still uses only hand tools so it's not about lazyness or time.

This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things kzbin.infoUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

Like most of us here, I've been online, and on KZbin for years, watched countless numbers of videos, probably multiple thousands of hours worth. I don't know what algorithm got me here but I'm glad it did. The series/progression of the cabin build is nothing short of absolutely amazing! Might be some of my favorite content I've ever come across here on KZbin. I'm glad people like Erik exist. The amount of dedication, drive, focus, and amount of physical exertion that has gone in to this shows to me, that Erik has the ability to absolutely master whatever skill, trade, or occupation he wants to achieve in this life. Its incredibly motivating. I'll be doing what I can to show my support and buying a few things from the shop. Keep it up kid, you're gunna continue to do big things.

Replanting trees? A+, buddy. That there's good Forest Management. Love how comprehensive this series is. Some might find it boring to watch each log being prepared, but there's a special wholesomeness and satisfying feeling about it I really enjoy. I also like the occasional breaks to explore the land around the place. Really gives us more of a feel for the area than just the worksite. THANK YOU for not using power tools. Tractor gets a pass because you're doing this solo. Holy hell do I love this series because of that. There are so few who do it just with hand tools.

Kids at that age aren't normally this motivated to do something like this not because they are lazy, but because the support and foundation to want to do so aren't there. Erik must have an amazingly loving stable family life, that in a real way, built this up in his life as he grew up to honor his grandfather and family that many kids here in America have never even factored into their priorities because oftentimes, we are anxious to start our lives away from our parents as soon as possible, seeking that love and support elsewhere through friends and relationships.

@@EpicBoy94 I sometimes forget people like you exist. People that have literally experienced life, seen the struggles of it, seen how it can consume you, and then blame people that have it rough for not working hard enough. This kid is living a privileged life, building under a mentor in a land he owns, most likely being fed by people that care for him and have safeguarded his life since birth. I am by no means taking away his massive accomplishment, but to use this kid's life as fuel for the argument that fat people are lazy and should just get up out of their asses and build a cabin, is beyond disrespectful and apathic to the human struggle. I live around a lot of fat people, people that self loath constantly, and that either lack the mental or physical fortitude to leave their 8-10 hour desk job that pays the bills and go work out, because they need to deal with the struggles of personal life, bad finances, and all the shit that gets in the way of living your best life. It's beyond disrespectful to blame people's weight on laziness. Most, if not all, were born into a less caring household, were fed bad food, were given bad habits or allowed to indulge, and are living under precarious situations that demand focus out of personal health. It takes being a man to drop the ego that you are better than anyone, and understand that life allowed to to be better, because it provided better conditions for you to be that way.

@@bjornlothbrok1964 this is definitely coming from someone who is watching this on their phone, on the couch, eating chips probably

@@bjornlothbrok1964 so achieving a project alone maybe to find yourself is anti-social. you have no knowledge whatsoever about this guy... he really doesnt appear anti-social at all

[@Tac0ful]

@@bjornlothbrok1964 It’s just a personal project, why are you so mad? What’s wrong with you? I personally would like to build something like this

He is the man of focus, comitment and sheer will. And extremely patient

I have commented before, but the more I watch these videos the more I am amazed by you. It's great seeing you at the beginning looking like a young 18 year old and watching you develop into a strong man. THIS is REALITY TV not that shit on TV they call 'reality'! Thanks ERIK!!

[@tashaconant5169]

I'm so proud of you, Erik. And so very worried you're going to fall. Be careful and good luck. I hop you enjoy it

[@igorkolbe4281]

my question is what sane person would dislike a video like this

[@harrisonlee978]

@Dita fon teese be quiet “greenie”

[@hess8839]

@Dita fon teese Maybe his family owns the forest? Did you think about that?

[@alecs9884]

@Dita fon teese bruh.

[@tacticalbarstool3385]

@Dita fon teese the trees around it plant their seeds in the new space, causing more trees to appear

[@drefk1973]

@Dita fon teese So you missed the part where he replanted?

[@carlawellbaum9698]

This is truly magical. From the 1st video to this is just breathtaking. Thank you for bringing us along on your walks through the mossy-covered forests. The sounds of nature and the echo of your tools against the logs are amazing. Love it!!!

[@SiKw0w]

It is amazing to watch a young guy like you do this incredible project from beginning to the end. I've built log cabins, terraces, even an outdoor toilet, but not alone and definitely not that skillfully. Congratulations on your success and good luck going further! Excited to see what's next

[@hunglv66]

Why does watching these always fill me with such a satisfied contentment ?

[@DokDream]

Erik, with all the turmoil in this world, you give me hope that there really are REAL men of this generation. I am glad to share air space with you.

[@rainbowsandlove]

What, exactly, is a “REAL” man?!

[@a.d.595]

It isn't the rain that going to stop Erik Building his amazing log cabin 💪👏👍

[@torquet49]

Loved the tranquility of your walk through the forest. What a beautiful place! Also, so impressed with the skill you have developed with use of the axe and tools. That is pure finesse! I watch your videos when I just want peace and quiet. Thank you1

If i was this guys grandpa I would have tears of pride every time he entered my mind

[@lindapetersen1800]

You are doing a GREAT JOB have build a cabin but not this big and I used Pulleys to help with the larger logs to easy the pain in the shoulders and back for me when I was in my 40's now I am in my late 60's it is different and it is no go for building anymore for me !!! You are young and will do more of the logging got a lot of those tools you are using also it is great to see a YOUNG FOLK knowing how to use these also !!!
