Making Mistakes On Day One Of Kitchen Install | Building Our Own DIY Tiny Home

[@michaelbevens1906]

Thankful for My 93 ye old mother, my wife and myself surviving COVID-19 so far with only some after covid19 problems...Enjoying all of your work..

[@shellyholdren6120]

It's real life, can't all be fabby all the time, which is why it is so encouraging for me to see the yuk too, keeps it real. Melissa, I HAD to grab that sweatshirt after watching today. Made me smile. We head back to our property end of October...got a lot done this summer, but already have the projects lined up for next construction season...there are so many things about taking raw land and turning it into home! Thanks for sharing it all, it is helping so many of us working on our own little slices of heaven! Doing the half day homeschool, half day work, full day mom thing here and some days, I need a fabby sweatshirt to remind me why I am pushing so hard...gotta get back to my mountain!!! Blessings and again, thanks for sharing and helping so many!!! Jeremy, to the Scotch!!!

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

Aww I love that you treated yourself! I am in love with mine!!

[@hbrws813]

Jeremy's face said it all: disappointment, anger, frustration. I am so proud of you two -- you have kept at it even thought I AM SURE you've had more rough times than just this. Keep at it! It will be worth it.

[@codyjones1539]

I build and install laminate and solid surface counter tops for a living. The top you bought is what we call a blank. After it’s cut to size you would put 5/8” build up full length and each end for the caps, and down the splash to fill in the space, ( That way it looks like it’s 1 3/8 on the deck and splash once it is laminated). As for the miter it gets a water proof wood glue and bolted, ( If you don’t and water gets on it it will swell up over time), then use a block of wood an hammer to pound the seams flat, being careful near the cove in the back. Then we use a seam sealer called “Seamfill” to seal it so water can not get in. Also if your walls are bowed and you have gaps between the top of the splash and wall you can scribe the splash to the wall, by marking it and belt sanding it to fit better. That looks like Valencia or Barcelona profile so you would have up to 5/8 you could scribe off. Any other questions feel free to ask

[@1982MCI]

Hey guys, another tip on countertops, I know it’s a little late now but you didn’t ask me before or I could have saved you some time and frustration, lol 😂. There is typically a build up strip added on site around the perimeter of the cabinet layout and it allows the countertop to sit at the correct height so it’s not sitting on top of the drawers and it strengthens the whole assembly. I usually used scrap plywood or left over 1x4” materials that are laying around. I cut strips of that down to 1”x 2 1/2” and run that flush on the front and sides of the complete cabinet layout and the back one sits against the wall. Brad nail those into the top of the cabinet boxes and into the face frames along the front. Then cut a 1”x4” to 20”-21” or whatever the specific measurements are along the tops of the cabinet boxes where you’ve joined cabinets to one another and center the 1”x4” along the two sides that are joined and this gives you support in the centers but is also where you will screw thru these build up strips into the underside of the cabinets from below (inside the cabinet). I know it’s confusing trying to follow this, but since you’ve been thru most of the frustration already, it will probly kick in and make sense. I was a builder for around 40 years. There’s not much that I haven’t been thru and almost all of my knowledge came the same way you both are gaining yours. You are doing fantastic like I’ve told you many times. You both have so much to be proud of!!! There’s not many folks around anymore that can say they accomplished what you two have. It may seem like everyone around you have done the same thing but that’s only because your in a huge homesteading area. Look at all the millions of folks in the cities that have absolutely no idea what we are talking about here. You are the rare few, they are the majority!! Just keep hammering, your almost there! There’s nothing better than sitting back on a cold winter evening and having the lights turned down low and sitting in your favorite chair and looking around the room with pride saying to yourself, We built this! We built all of this ourselves!! Keep it up, both of you are doing fantastic!!! I’m proud of you!!!

[@domenicdalleva1045]

Put a clothes line in garage and hang them to dry like the old days before dryers😁

[@RebelCanners]

Extra counter top would be perfect in the “laundry” shed just a thought since that’s where you fold and sort

[@rosebyany1]

Sounds like you all need a day off to relax and unwind. Sometimes taking a step away helps with the focus and it is amazing how it helps when you get back to the work at hand.. Love you guys you are doing such a great job. Just remember 'BREATHE' 😍💖🇦🇺

[@Lisa-wp1ff]

One thing about you two is you keep chugging along. So many others never begin and others give up way too soon. Things are looking great. Good luck and stay safe

[@shym9933]

What Lisa said :)

[@musicalatv]

That is so true. I know some who will just run off when things get tough, leaving their significant other to try and do everything themself.

[@terrythomas7698]

Jeremy looks soooo tired and a lil defeated. Don't give up hope things are looking awesome. That's how things are when you're just nearing the finish line...things (Always!!) seems to go South I swear. You will get there. Blessings going forward.

[@domthomas1002]

It cannot be a happy day every day. You need to bottom out to climb back up. Live, Love, and Enjoy, with what you have done. Be proud of your home that you have built with your own hands. I am! It is an amazing feeling when you have accomplished everything. You both need to stay focused. Love your children and love yourselves.

Re: running out of milk, keep dry milk for emergencies that can be made instantly. We used to live out in the country & would always buy extra groceries and mom would add dry milk to the fresh milk. I caught her doing it one day & said it’s tastes just fine & I kept her secret. Mom lives with me now that’s she’s alone (pop died several yrs back).

[@WA4OSH]

My Mom used to do the same thing -- mix the whole milk with powdered milk and water into a jug. My little brother and sister always got whole milk on their cooked oats to help their growing bones. We, the big boys, got mixed milk even though adults weren't supposed to be drinking milk. We were supposed to have been weaned already and mom was letting us have some milk.

[@gj5666]

Yes,we also buy dry milk for emergencies.

[@WA4OSH]

@@gj5666 It's no fun eating oats and granola with water. LOL.

[@ritag4432]

Mark your mom is a smart cookie!

[@denisewilson8367]

I keep instant dry milk, evaporated milk on hand. Both will mix up with water to make a doable milk sub for emergencies. You can also buy paper cartons of shelf stable milk. I had 2 I used this month. It tastes like store bought milk to me. just unsrew the lid & pour, store in fridge after opening. After opening dry powdered milk put in an air tight container. It will go bad fast leaving it in its orginal package. Hanging upper cabinets : I use a 2X cleat with a back cut top edge angle. At the top of each cabinet back I attach another cleat with the back edge angle cut. So you can stand on the floor, lift cabinet onto the cleat. It locks in, no balancing and trying to screw it at the same time. And most important no balancing acts on a ladder! They have videos on youtube if this makes no sense how I explained it. Always think safety first. I hope this helps.

[@katkay7]

That was a good example of two things. First, the changing moods for the changing seasons. Second, what ENDURING looks like. You guys are doing a great job. Keep it up, it's about "PROGRESS, NOT PERFECTION"!

[@aliash8599]

Hey guys maybe you can take a break, even half a day. That helps sometimes, and everyone has days like this. Besides you two are like super heroes , Lol , it good to see your not perfect. Lol. God Bless you all.

Ten years ago, we moved from FL to TN. In FL, we were 5-10 minutes from civilization and here in TN, we are 30-45 minutes from it. So I know what you mean about the drive time. It was frustrating at first, but now we love it.

[@Lula_F]

It’s great to see a couple like you two work together on such a life changing project. You go with the flow and don’t let these obstructions stop you. Then again, we don’t see the cut out parts of your videos. LOL. Keep up the great work!! I wait for your next videos and check everyday!!! Love you guys. Thanks for the positive role model.

Don't feel alone....I did the same thing when I was young and was doing a kitchen remodel. It's something to smile about later on in life.

[@redporschekilla]

Guys, I’m so sorry to see that, my wife and I say always! Why does a small innocent task turnout into a chore and project? But you guys rock. BTW that one o outlook out of the kitchen window, looked like a drawing, priceless to have that at your fingertips, provided for free by Mother Nature! Lastly, there’s no such thing as problems, but challenges to grow bigger, love your Channel and thank you for letting us be part of your story! All the best from Snohomish!

[@stepanova8]

I know when you look around you, you see all the things that need to be done. Take a moment and look at all the things you have already accomplished!! The place is really shaping up! It will get done. And now you have a piece of countertop for a work table in the pole barn.... right next to the dryer ... for folding clothes. 😎

A tip for your wood chopping at the end. Get 3 old tyres that will fit over the block; stack them up and they will retain the wood you're chopping so it doesn't fly out sideways. Makes things so much easier not having to pick the larger pieces up and re-place them on the block for further splitting.

[@markatkinson614]

Jeremy. Use a finish washer for the cabinet screws. Temp cleets that support the cabinet , will ELEVIATE the , "HOLD . IT. RIGHT.... THERE hun " THING. .

[@larryparish5984]

String up a clothes line in the pole barn & turn a fan on them 😁. And Jeremy could build a box to fit under the long end of the countertop for firewood storage. 👍

Clever, using your step ladder to hold cabinet in place during mounting. You were lucky to be able to get your counter top color. The big box stores are not stocked well any more, due to the covid. Prices have doubled and tripled for lumber. My building projects will be put off until the prices come back down. I do not believe the prices will, for a while. Anything made of wood ,the shelves are empty. Lucky you have the cabinets. Nice to have a strong helper. Making cut like you did takes a lot of precise measurements. Great job.

Grewup on a farm and listening to rain on the tin roof was like a lullaby and sleep.

You guys are an inspiration, I like the way you laugh at advecity with a smile ,and keep on going. Most importantly, you seem to work as a team to help each other. Thanks.

Oh man that sucks when that happens!!! But soon you guys will be totally self sufficient and maybe even have your own milk cow! ?😬

Something I did a while back was to just cover the cabinets with plywood and then DuraRock. Then I just tiled it. Put it in my sisters house 20 years ago. Very durable. Very cheap if you like the look. I think we spent $150 on 25 ft of counter top. The cost is mostly labor. Easy to clean.

I love your show. We don’t always have great days, but the good always out weights the bad. Your a great couple and I admire you so much. Continue with your adventure and let’s see what tomorrow brings. Maybe a new stove ?

Jeremy your doing a great job and you are blessed to have a wonderful help mate . Everything takes twice as long and cost three times as much as we expect.
