Four Rows High on the Log Cabin

[@YankeeWoodcraft]

This is one of those videos that I wish had a "❤" option instead of just a "👍".

[@SurvivalSherpa]

Many thanks, my friend!

Great video to start the weekend. Happy for these (slightly) cooler temps.?

[@SurvivalSherpa]

Thank ya, ma'am! You'll get a kick out of the next vid... how I keep cool in the Georgia heat. :)

You must be feeling better about the situation now well done that’s an impressive chunk of work.

[@SurvivalSherpa]

It just feels good to see it going back up. Many thanks, Steve!

I would not want one of these bad boys to roll on top of me! Looks fun and rewarding though.

[@SurvivalSherpa]

That would not be good. Thanks.

Todd, great progress my friend. I have been so busy in life I haven't produced a video in a while. My cabin frame has been moved and is now going to be a storage shed/ work shop. I look forward to talking to you again soon.

[@SurvivalSherpa]

Thank you, bud! Totally understand that life thing. Hope you're doing fine, my friend!

[@doriandeshawn5805]

I guess I'm kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good place to stream new series online?

[@deshawnfrank6149]

@Dorian Deshawn I use FlixZone. Just search on google for it :)

[@tonyfelts1512]

looking good man

[@SurvivalSherpa]

Thanks brother!

[@JusBidniss]

Sorry Todd, the county Code Enforcement guy just called. Even though it's now on your land, you're not really zoned for this type of structure. Time to move it again! 😎

[@SurvivalSherpa]

What a sinking feeling that would be, lol. I might just have friends over for a really big bonfire.

[@mickbator6979]

Explain something for me please. Why use some power tools but not others? Like why not bring some bags of cement in for the foundation posts? Why not bring in a leveling chainsaw jig to make those logs sit flush? It just interest me why you're head set on some hand tools and okay with some power tools? Just curious, I am not trying to be offensive, I love your videos! 👍👍👍👍 You may have covered this in another video, and if so I apologize, I am just a new subscriber.

First of all, thanks for the sub and following the journey, Mick! When I started this project, my goal was to use only pioneer hand tools. All the logs were in fact cut and processed with an ax and hand tools. It gave me a great appreciation for our ancestors. Once we moved the cabin to the new site, I ditched the pioneer hand tool method for modern, electric hand tools: Drill, generator, chainsaw, etc. Even before move, about this far in progress at the other site, I started using cordless tools for drilling holes for pins. I have a chainsaw mill. The gaps in the logs will chinked to seal and insulate the walls. I've seen first hand how long it takes using pioneer tools to erect a log cabin. At this point, I'm using whatever makes the build go faster. Great question and welcome to the channel, sir!
