Cutting and laying a stone fireplace part 2 the hearth

That has to be the nicest looking fireplace I've ever seen. You must be so glad to have finished it and how proud you must be.

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Thank you much friend! Yes, with all that we do it’s so nice to look at it and say “I did that” blood sweat and tiers.

[@frenchdrains1089]

What stone is that?

[@HiddenBlessingsHomestead]

The kitchen is absolutely stunning! Thanks for recording building the fireplace, watched it from beginning to end, and kept wishing it didn't have to be Timelapse, it is my son's dream to build one. I sent him the video.

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Ya, me too. When I shot that video it wasn’t for a KZbin channel, but only to document some of it. If I had it to do over I would have filmed more. But on the other hand it took me two months to build the fireplace

[@HiddenBlessingsHomestead]

@@logcabinlifestyle Ya I totally get that. Was this the first fireplace you had ever built? or have you built others? You just really knew what you were doing so I was wondering if it was strictly research or experience. Kinda let's me know if it's possible for us to build one, never having done it before. If research do you have any book or channel recommendations for learning?

[@MarkH10]

My great grandpa never had the power go out. Power did not arrive until he had passed. How shocking the past few decades of progress have been. I appreciate that you took this beautiful cabin built with hand hewn logs and built such an appropriate, wonderful fireplace.

[@Victorialands]

What an absolutely gorgeous fireplace… just wow. I would love something like that. A dream fireplace. You sure have an awesome Cabin. Just a ton of character and potential.

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Thank you!

[@julieshaffer7140]

My dream has always been to build a cabin, but I'd love to have a cabin with history. This cabin and the way you've restored it, is just absolutely perfect. The stone fireplace adds beauty, comfort and security. It must feel so nice to gather around it.

[@kerrythompson386]

split the 2 rocks into 1.. I am glad you corrected that lol

[@rockross8561]

Beautiful job! Great aesthetics. working towards a simple, rich life.

[@TheBeardedCarpenter]

Howdy- your fireplace and stove is a great focal point for the cabin. Has a nice,cozy look to it. Love how you fixed for the stove. Take care and God bless

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Thank you my friend. I started watching a few of your videos! It’s been nice. I feel like I have known you all my life. If that makes sense. It’s nice to have like minded friends

[@collienbordner5181]

You did an awesome job with the fireplace,splitting stones,and moving the cook stove in place. Hanging the pans by the stove gives it a rustic look. Looks very cozy to me.Well done.

[@TheOffGridExperience]

Love the look of the fireplace and cabin. Tons of character. Cheers!

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Thanks my friend.

[@RuffEdgesBakery]

I would love to have a cabin like that with everything that you have in that kitchen. It is really beautiful! I am going to have to bring watch you other videos. I have seen the first part of the fireplace build and now this one. Great job! Splitting that stone was interesting, I have not ever seen that done before. Thank you for sharing this video.

That was very awesome to watch, you definitely know what you're doing and had to endure the extreme cold at the same time.

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Thanks Andrew!

[@samTollefson]

It is so nice to see you put the fireplace within the cabin! I cringe whenever I see half the fireplace stone outside losing all that thermal heat stored in the stone. Beautiful Job!

[@rutroe88]

Just wanted everyone to know, I'm adding this project to my husband's honey do list. And I will supervise because I watched this video. 😅

Awesome nice looking stone fireplace your ancestors would be proud of you .

[@chrischristofis8501]

This reminds me of work my dad used to do in Cyprus and Greece, wells and fireplaces were built in the same traditional way with stone and stove attached, those skills went to America with the pioneers. looks like granite you are using if you were lucky to have limestone it may be a little easier, you should be proud of that fireplace and stove space, a beautiful job thank you for posting the video to remind us of traditional building techniques

[@RobertPlutch]

Fantastic craftsmanship you are a true spirited pioneer. I also will be building a traditional cabin in the summer of 2023 with a fire place in mind. You emphasized on the foundation, do you have any other videos on the prep phase? I would be great to see your technique. Thanks for sharing good stuff !!!

[@logcabinlifestyle]

There just a little in this video. It’s an after thought though. You can always ask me questions if you need to know. I will help with whatever I can Q@A at the cabin (bathroom,cat,kitchen, fireplace foundation) & sneak peek at Christmas special kzbin.info/www/bejne/jICckmd9m6h5ecU

beautiful Just wondering if the hearth was put right over wood floor

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Just not in front of the fireplace. That’s the hot spot

[@fordboss9275]

Jerry, this is my first video I’ve seen of yours, (and I am now a subscriber 😀) this cabin build is looking beautiful, I would love to live in there! What kind of support “if any” is under the floor directly beneath the fireplace? Also, wouldn’t you want a thicker bottom to put a fire on?

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Thank you, There is a concert fountain that runs 9’ to the bedrock below. Theres 3’ of contact with stone on it under the fire.

[@Insats100]

So nice. aim inprest.

[@rogerdudra178]

I just gotta see you finish this project.

[@wendimccain8580]

God bless you! You're work is impeccable, and the result is spectacular looking! I saw, in the comments, that you salvaged a log cabin (I believe). How did you find it? If you don't mind me asking. I'm in Michigan and want to do something similar. Skip McCain

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Hi, skip! I wrote a story about just that. How I found it that is. I called the store “the painter”. In time I will be sharing all of my story on here. It’s too deep it put one little text or even into one video. But you started with “God bless”! He is the painter. If you happen to be on Facebook search “The Painter Jerry Tyson”. You might be able to find the store.

[@FranciscoAntonio-rd1eu]

Hello, it is very pretty, but did you leave the ventilation at the bottom and that it must come and go from the outside through the back of the chimney?

[@dirtydsrc]

Wow. Beautiful stone work. The stone is sandstone?

[@cedricjwilliams8425]

Wow..I love your videos...how you explain details...it really helps nice nice work...I'm loving it keep going I'm right behind you...❤️👍

[@logcabinlifestyle]

Thank you!!

[@nathanmiller8694]

This looks really fantastic. Educational as well! Question, is all the stone sitting on wood?

[@logcabinlifestyle]

No, just the ones under the cook stove. There’s concrete underneath the fireplace

[@m62hunting]

Beautiful job, true crafsmanship! Hey just curious for my own knowledge, its ok for the one layer of stone between that and the wood floor? Didn't know how much heat transfers through.

[@logcabinlifestyle]

The only place like that is under the cook stove. There isn’t any wood under the fireplace side.

[@m62hunting]

@@logcabinlifestyle Oh okay didn't know, thanks. Nice work enjoy!

[@Dlowr7]

That is awesome. There’s no problems from all that weight being put on your floors or did you have to build it’s own foundation underneath the floor?

[@logcabinlifestyle]

It has a full basement and foundation that is set on bedrock

[@danmartinez9497]

Is your fireplace modeled after a Rumford? I'm in Colorado and having a log house built and I am looking to have a similar one built. I understand the Rumford is the best design which uses a tall fire.

[@georgeshotrodbarn2113]

It looks good i love it. can you teel me what species of log the cabin is made from. thanks

[@logcabinlifestyle]

The cabin is salvaged old growth American chestnut from the 1800s

[@stevenJEDI3]

I was kind of curious about your floor if it can support all that weight

[@logcabinlifestyle]

The only place the stone is on the floor is to the left of the fireplace. The rest is on the foundation

[@lucyjackson9408]

Hey thoroughly enjoyed watching both videos of the fireplace build. Great job!Really authentic looking! Im looking into moving/reassembling an old 18x22 log cabin next spring. Curious, what kind of cement did you use on the chimney? What was the sand to cement ratio?

[@logcabinlifestyle]

I used a 1/2 part type N, 1/2 masons lime with 3 parts mason sand
