I am 85 years old. I find what you did and made, unbelievable. So very neat. You are so talented, along with showing your cabin off. God Bless you young man.

[@PenniacWilderness]

Thank you Dennis, I very much appreciate your comment. Hope you are well. Where are you located? I am always curious to hear where viewers are watching from.

Brilliant build . I particularly like the upstairs "porch" area over looking the stream and views . Such a beautiful home . 💯🌟🇬🇧🙏

[@throwback336]

Very nice. If i had a place like that I'd never come out. Kings to you!!

[@butternuthillfarm1599]

Beautiful setting for your cabin and outbuildings. Really inovative what you've done with it. I could imagine myself standing in the middle of your stream fly fishing! Nice job young man.

[@robertfairburn9979]

Happily live in such a space

[@musicsavant1079]

Wow, I'm so impressed! Love your hanging clothing storage in the loft! I love the upgrades and reasoning, butcher block countertop and stone wall for the woodburning stove are beautiful! That loft porch and being able to see fish would be amazing!

[@sherylbartlett3871]

Holy Smoke....what a beautiful cabin and out buildings! Thanks for the tour. Love nature & the stream. God bless...

Absolutely lovely. I love that it’s remote and how clever you are especially with the hearth and how you have it set up for cooking. Your addition is lovely especially the view. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

[@davidharris241]

Great tour. Thank you so much for making this video!

New to your channel. Lovely home young man! I could move right in, and stay the remainder of my life. Your country is so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. God bless you❤

[@larryboschen1287]

Love your cabin, and thanks for the awesome tour. You rock.

[@sarahtyster7342]

lovely cabin. I love the loft above the water, must be nice to sleep on in summer and hear the stream, what a beautiful spot. thanks for showing it.

[@andyhutch8262]

I see you are "tooled up" well, but for 1 item, A real must I would have thought for amount of split logs you need . A log cutter and splitter all on one machine, driven by a small engine or a small tractor, you start by lifting an 8 to 10ft long log up onto the machine, the machine does all the lifting hydraulic's, choice of cutter can be a circular blade or a chainsaw bar & chain, a hydraulic ram pushes the sawn log thru splitters which can be in half, quarters and so on, up a short elevator into your log store, only work to do is stack firewood up. I would say if you set your stall out from the start like having all the wood near to hand, a years worth of firewood could be done in 2 days!! If you got your neighbour to assist, hire your self and machine to him and so on, it will soon pay for its self in no time.

[@PenniacWilderness]

I agree! This would be a great addition. Maybe someday :)

[@denislosieroutdoors]

Another great cabin tour there eh! Thanks fir sharing

[@rajeevpushkar]

Awesome cabin with a lovely wood stove ❤❤👌👌👌👌

[@sallyfrenette9643]

You did such a good job on all of it. The spot by the stream is beautiful too. We have had a Firman Gennie for about 5 years and have had good luck with it as well. Thanks for the tour.

[@bfed2831]

well done and thanks for sharing

[@jamesoncross7494]

Beautiful!

[@graemewhalen40]

A very nice tour of the cabin and surroundings. I fished the length of that stream from the end of the road down to the river many, many times so I have a good idea where you are. That tea coloured water calls to me.

[@SuperSuperdude88]

that upper loft would be amazing for morning coffee, reading, lots of blankets !

[@corrineterry6676]

Wow! It’s awesome! You’re very talented! Gorgeous property!

[@montechristo546]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@thedebbieadams]

Love it, you did a great job

[@salliewhite-bishton5394]

Thanks for the tour.. i presume once you build the Bath/Shower and possibly Sauna House you could incorporate a place to do laundary in it.

[@jorgedisalvo8119]

It's a beautiful and well though out cabin. 👍👍for you!!!

[@paulhunter546]

Very nice.. excellent tour ! 👍

[@surfinoperator]

[@theomimesis]

Beautiful cabin.

[@davebarr9378]

Very nice cabin in all respects. Enjoyed the presentation. Thank you!

[@user-ei9nb6xu1w]

Like the desk area

[@user-on4sm4jm6y]

Well put together tour of your cabin. I enjoy seeing videos of this type and how others like yourself have utilized the space provided by the respective build. All cabins are not alike but similar minded people have different ways of using their creativity to bring out the most of what the living area can offer them. Your usage of the limited overhead room is very well thought out. Your addition was much needed considering how little living space you actually have in the first place. Here is a tip to help keep potential viewers from loosing interest and moving on to other videos, Your intro has too much content and takes too long to get to the point of your video. Not meaning the context is useless but might be more appropriate elsewhere in the presentation perhaps nearer the end of your video. Grab their attention to watch the tour, which you did, and stick to that. Then if you feel you need to add anything to the tour of your cabin you can insert it in later thereby keeping the main flow of what the viewer sees. This keeps their interest and attention. (I worked in the movie and film industry and have also made some very successful commercials in my early years.) This is just a subtle suggestion to help you get more likes and views.

[@TheBeardedCarpenter]

Howdy Brother- everything you have done has been well thought out. It looks great! Thanks for sharing this. Take care and God’s blessings to you

[@PenniacWilderness]

Thank you, Sir :) Time to build a new one I think. I'll be in touch ;)

[@SuperSuperdude88]

i really like this cabin. incredible work

[@PenniacWilderness]

Thanks so much!

[@nata3467]

would love a full video on how you did the fireplace surround - with supply lists etc

[@craigger]

Just stumbled on your channel! Awesome work!!! Cheers from Ontario

[@PenniacWilderness]

Cheers from NB, thanks for watching!

[@mtnbikekid8]

Great little Cabin with a great location right next to that stream. Last year I built a little 12 x 12 A-frame out of solid wood inside and out on my remote 29 acre property bordering the national forest.

[@PenniacWilderness]

Nice work! Where are you located?

[@littlegriffoffgridalberta6837]

Awesome tour ! I have watched a lot of your build :) I love that deck upstairs , fresh air no bugs ! When you clean the snow off your panels take it all off, If you leave a patch it blocks the Circuit ,

[@PenniacWilderness]

You are right, makes such a difference to have the panel fully in the sun. Thanks for watching!

[@beneficialliving1314]

Cool

[@dianewatson23]

Nice 👌

[@ivywilliams4258]

Your cabin is so neat and well crafted.. I did enjoy the tour, it takes a great skill to build such... watching from UK

[@PenniacWilderness]

Thank you very much! What part of the UK? I have family from Whitby area.

[@jasonortiz312]

Great job with everything. I got lots of inspiration from this video. Im excited to create my own similar propery and home. Great job and thank you. God bless you brother!!!

[@PenniacWilderness]

You can do it!

[@bernardc9726]

Very nice cabin. Appreciate your attention to detail.

[@PenniacWilderness]

Thank you very much!

[@conniebyes2472]

Nice that you have a back door.

[@donaldhall2037]

Beautiful Cabin...love the Rock Heat Guard you put behind the stove and your use of Rocks on top and the plumbing pipes...very creative and it just looks good....FYI...for more storage or displaying things (smaller items)...You can put 1x6 or 1x8 slabs over top of your windows and Doors the length of your windows and doors.

[@PenniacWilderness]

Great idea! And very easy to do I would imagine.

[@donaldhall2037]

Oh yeah, L Brackets, but to keep with the theme of Plumbing pipes..even though a little more bulky, they would work as well. @@PenniacWilderness

[@LaserNUG]

You have a beautiful location there. Love the work you have done and you must really enjoy being there. I am new to the Channel - do you live there full time?

[@LostCaper]

You put a lot of thought and work into your cabin and it sure paid off. Also your approach to build was put up the frame the built the things as you needed. That’s a good idea because sometimes you don’t know your needs until you are in the cabin for awhile. Thanks for sharing.

[@kathleenmead9259]

nice!

[@nextbanker9538]

Great ❤❤❤

[@JoeRossSongsNStuff]

I love this, man! I watch videos like this quite often and didn't know you had a channel until it was suggested. I think I played soccer with you.

[@PenniacWilderness]

Yes, we played soccer together for sure. Thanks for watching, nice to hear from you again!

[@GPOutdoors]

Love the location and views. Subscribed!

[@PenniacWilderness]

Thanks GP! Been watching you for years now :) Hope all is well in Upper Canada

[@funtyes1970]

first time watcher, you did very good job you build very sweet cabin, I really like how you have upstairs with more living space. that little room upstairs by stream i probably get some better seal windows and heat that room and you probably use that room more. and i love your property with that stream.

[@PenniacWilderness]

Good ideas - Maybe I could close it in and make it a small bedroom or something!

[@Rlaplante73]

I'm new to the channel. Great cabin and very well thought out, designed, and built!

[@PenniacWilderness]

Thanks for joining!

[@Nyllsor]

Very nice! I really like how all of it is designed and how it looks! :) I might just steal some of your design ideas for a 3d project. Hopefully for a real cabin some time in the future. :) I just think you utilized that small space really well. I have built a 30 square/meter framed cabin but it turned into very much 1 room and you defenetley want some 'seperation' like you had with the downstairs room and how the upstairs worked. The outside loft with the stream is really awesome too, alot of details inside like the kitchen area i liked alot aswell the setup of it. Also the stone around the stove is great imho. Favourited, Subscribed! :)

[@nolancunningham7484]

Sapiens is a good book! 27:20

[@oldladylinda]

I just joined your channel. It's a really beautiful setting there. The cabin looks sturdy and so cute. If you haven't built your bed frame yet, think about using that same black pipe you used for hanging some things on. It's sturdy, not as heavy as wood, wouldn't take up as much space and looks pretty cute as well. Nice video, I enjoyed it very much.

[@PenniacWilderness]

Great ideas - Thanks for sharing and joining the channel!

[@jasonwilson7998]

Would love to see your vision of an outdoor kitchen and a bathhouse. Amazing channel!

[@PenniacWilderness]

High on the list of things to do!

[@finestliving7580]

Thanks for the tour. It is such a nice cabin. Is a self-built structure like yours insurable?

[@sarahgrooms5606]

I like the pot rack you made. You should make them and sale them. I would buy one. Like the cabin and your wood stove and area around it.

[@PenniacWilderness]

Great idea!

[@FebrithDarkstar]

I think your spice rack is lovely! Do you live there all year round? I feel like I could just hibernate there in perfect contentment!

[@mondavou9408]

I like the Generator outlet! Where did you find that? You lumber looks so good to a Citi-idot like me. You can tell that didn't come from a box store! Oh the Ol' Dietz lantern, folks love 'em, they're crazy about them! They even have their own club, called Dietz Nuts. ha ha ha

[@PenniacWilderness]

The generator outlet I found at a local hardware store. Where are you writing from? The lanters are great, I agree!

[@mbyrne2855]

Really enjoyed the video. Hearing the thought process behind what you’ve done makes the video that much better. My daughter did ask why you’re dressed like Elmer Fudd.

[@PenniacWilderness]

lol - it is the 'in' look you can tell her ha

[@gallopingg1]

Beautiful build. uk

[@user-ht6bp5im1z]

Happy Healthy New Year to you as well. Have you had any Different/Strange types of Encounters up there in the Woods?

[@PenniacWilderness]

Oh, now and then I guess. But nothing too out of the ordinary I suppose

[@kennethhudson8013]

Since you sre so close to the stream hydro project could save you money on generator!

[@joannak4640]

Fantastic video! Everything is really coming along. You are so blessed to live the life that you do ❤️

[@PenniacWilderness]

Thank you so much :)

[@archiviste600]

Super vidéo, Bravos. Mais si c'était possible est-ce ces vidéos ne pourraient pas être polluées par ces foutues pub françaises !

[@nvbac72]

Hay a ơi

[@raylucas4281]

Great video ! I will go back and check other videos, but I am curious how you insulated the roof I will be building similar cabin this spring and want to leave my beams exposed rather than shoving insulation between them and covering them. thanks

[@nata3467]

I am wondering same thing. In Maine I have seen homes where insulation added to the roof before metal laid

[@PenniacWilderness]

I put the rafters up, boarded over those, then covered that in tar paper, then added 2 inch Styrofoam over that. I do have a video showing it too if you wanted more details. Good questions and thanks for watching!

[@wessmith7408]

I just discovered your channel. I am just amazed with what you have accomplished. I will go and search our some of your other videos. I do have a question. On your kitchen sink, why not just run a pipe out so it will drain to the outdoors? This would be gray water and should pose no problem. Sure you would need to run it say 15 to 20 feet away from the cabin. I would be interested in your answer.

[@PenniacWilderness]

Good question - I guess main reason is pipe freezing in winter. The bucket works alright, just have to remember not to let it overfill. But in my next build I'll have a more thought-out solution for sure.

[@wessmith7408]

@@PenniacWilderness Thank you for responding. I doubt it would freeze provided the pipe were able to drain. It would need to be angled so that it would drain. At the end of the pipe, dig a hole and fill it with some rock. This makes what is called a type of blind ditch. The water drains without ponding. I know in the winter that would freeze but not a problem. Just so the pipe has some fall so it will drain. Your water would be warm.
