[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Thank you. You are spot on, I'm loving it. I am really enjoying creating and seeing it come together. Thank so much for following along 👊

[@elvirak.schuller9449]

It’s really taking shape now, very nice! 👍

[@Tom111060]

... big progress ... happy to see you operating the crane remotely at last ... Stay safe.

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

That crane has been the tool I've ever made

[@CNile-se9xw]

As always I'm totally in awe of your creativity, skill levels & as others have said, your detailed explanations. I'm smiling along with yah mate & looking forward to your next update. 👍

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Thank you. I really appreciate that. I am glad you find value in it :)

[@TheSpindrift76]

I am really happy seeing your progress. I normally have questions and thoughts to share however I'm just too tired today. But this is wonderful 👏

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Thank you Heidy! 😊 come back with those thoughts when you're less tired. Thank you for following 😊

[@Peninsula79]

Looking awesome mate!!

[@yv6eda]

Great work! Nice details!

[@poeticmic6219]

Followed you for ages mate :D it’s great to see your so productive. Great work. Love from the UK

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Thank you. I love hearing from the originals. I really appreciate you following along 😃

[@jidtravels8784]

That’s a handy looking little crane you got there

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Not just handy, damn vital. I built it to help me build this house. I control it with my phone. See Build Update 5 if you missed it 😃 kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5Sxp2lmmtamqZo

[@stevenlane729]

The trailer is looking absolutely fantastic. I love how you take the time to explain in detail why certain things are the way the are, we can all learn a lot from your advice. Thank you. PS LOVE the crane.

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Thank you! That's the whole reason I do the channel. To help share knowledge. I'm glad you enjoyed it. 😄 that crane has been the best investment

[@Homebery]

She's coming together nicely! To be honest when you made the first video in the series saying your going to join two tinys, I thought it was a pie in the sky idea but you've just about cracked it. Cannot WAIT to see her in final beauty.

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

😂😂 you and me both. Haha honestly I had the concept of how I could make it work but really wasn't sure. But now I'm starting to see little glimpses of light that are showing me it might actually be possible. The devil is in the detail though... Will it seal up, can I set it up again. Will it travel ok. Time will tell

[@ajdann02]

Yeah Man!!! Nice work!

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Cheers bro

[@markdarling4487]

I thought your micro tiny house was awesome. This one is so totally cool. I cant wait until its finished. Brilliant job so far.

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Thank you Mark! I just love doing different stuff. I am super excited to see how this one comes out.

[@nomiSimple]

Two Hands and an awesome crane can build anything to exacting standards! Are you already thinking about the next tiny home from what you have learned on this one?

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Honestly you wouldn't be seeing these vids without that crane. So good. 😂😂 I'm still trying to think up what I'm going to do with this one. I but I'm certainly coming up with a lot of ideas I can take into future builds. Gets me excited, but then I remember how much I still have to do on this one yet 😆

[@cosmoshaw6084]

Should your bolts on the wall base plate go through the other way round? That way you can check the nuts from under the trailer and tighten if they loosen? Otherwise you might not spot it if they're stuck inside the wall.

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

A good point but I don't see it as a big deal. I've used spring washers to prevent the nuts coming undone. I can easily check if it's still tight by checking the bolt heads. The only issue is if the nut comes off. It's stationary most of the time so very unlikely to ever see I be an issue. If one does come off while in transport it's unlikely to affect it. I'd need more than one to come loose to have real problems. And overall I don't love the look of bolts hanging out the bottom. But certainly a valid thought, thank you

[@cosmoshaw6084]

@@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse After all this work I'd hate to see it fall off the back as you were driving along! You have thought of everything though! Really inspired and love seeing the regular updates!

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

@@cosmoshaw6084 😂 if one bolt or two bolts were going to be my undoing I probably shouldn't be building it 😆. Also I've supplemented with metal screws it needs to pull a lot out of steel to fall of. I joke but it's valid. I know of some builds that only got home from the builder (I use that loosely) on their maiden voyage strapped down with binders as almost took flight. That's deadly serious shit, and the kind of stuff we just don't want to happen. Thank you man! Keep these thoughts coming I really appreciate them. There will be stuff I've missed. And if nothing else others get to see our thinking. I never mentioned spring washers in the vid. Thanks so much for following along 👊. Another one coming soon!

[@Kuyah5323]

I like the hoist

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

It's been my favorite tool. Well worth building

[@tomcat3070]

Unless you plan of licking the H2-3 Pine everyday its fine. Its only bad if you constantly work with it full time without respirator.

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Yeah, I logically know that, and they claim it's safe. Really it was just me being emotional haha. Although if you read some of the warnings they supply it with it's a little unsettling. CCA was once considered safe also. Really, I would possibly get over and just use it next time. I probably over thought this one.

[@naikjoy]

Nicee!

[@freeq1829]

How will you keep condensation or moisture from getting in through the walls/ceiling/trailer?

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

I'll be wrapping them. I'm using a product called foam cell I'll cover it in an upcoming video.

[@joshuafaust9094]

Good Day, Such a fun and neat project))) With many years of studying tiny house architecture, I plan to have built a futuristic or sci-fi themed style Tiny Home. For example, just the shape of the windows can give the impression of a futuristic tiny home) I am exploring many ideas especially how to save space and how to make a really cool roof design) I noticed that the geodesic dome homes have very cool futuristic features which has given me many ideas how to combine a typical tiny house structural design incorporating a Futuristic/Sci-fi theme. Whats most challenging is how to make the small width of a tiny house to feel spacious. For example, 2.2 meters is the maximum width for a tiny house permitted here in the country of Colombia.

[@TwoHandsandaTinyHouse]

Hi there Joshua! Thank you so much for your words. Your idea sounds incredible one thing I've noticed is the strength of hexagons in construction. Something geometric would be so cool. Working with angles is a bit of a pain though. Please share your journey if you build it.
