Happy New Year!! December 2022

[@philvale5724]

Hi 👋, Kim I have not seen any about you and work shop for such a long time, I fill so sorry for you and your family, to hear of all the problems you are having, With your building and building contractor and the trades, If you weren’t so far away I’ll would come and give you a hand, My heart goes out to you and your family, Let’s hope you are moved soon, PHIL FROM THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOULIN FRANCE.

[@rickeyware2248]

Kim, keep your head up and ,God bless you and your family

[@jimdee5003]

So sad to hear. Pray your ordeal ends with a new home and property your family enjoys.

[@sueplummer6669]

I hope things are going well for you. Miss hearing your updates. Praying for a quick finish for your house.

[@augieb7470]

Hi Kim and Fam, So sad that you are being treated this way by the builder. You need to put your energy into putting them out of business. It’s almost over and you can get on with life. You look so stressed and that’s no good for you. ❤you guys and can’t wait for all this to be behind you and to see a smile on that pretty face.

[@rickgibson7876]

Thanks for the update was wondering what was happening. Once the house is completed and you are in give another update and name the contractor, hopefully save someone else the heartache you are going through. As for your health I am wondering if it is due to the black mold in the first camper. Your eyes have seemed a little different since then. Take care keeping you and yours in prayer.

[@tdkrei]

Nice to see you again Kim. Holy cow this has been a tough journey for you and family but, I love to see that smile on your face once in a while. Good luck. Keep on smiling.

[@kimr5841]

I feel your pain. When we built our house we found out deep into the build that our GC was cheating us out of a significant amount of $$. We wound up cutting our losses by firing him and becoming our own general contractor. Things went much smoother and quicker after that. In addition we decided to finish most of the interior ourselves (drywall, hardwood floors, tile etc). We learned a long the way, and it turned out beautifully. Best of luck and lots of love to you and your family. ❤️

[@valeriehenschel1590]

Do hope you save one pallet or pallet-bin of good oak pieces to use in the future for turning. Even smaller wood (3”d.) is very useable. If you start drying some now, it might be perfectly ready when you move into your shop.

[@walkingstickwoman]

I would love to see what you are going to do for your garden & for your future animals. ALL your progress!

[@frankfowler8295]

Kim, What a trial. Keep fighting girl. I'm so sorry about your quality issues with the builder. Good Luck and God Bless.

[@OurDevotional-b9c]

Thanks for the update. God is faithful!

[@nealc5579]

Walk by faith, not by sight...waiting for a diagnosis was the hardest part for me. Prayers from Canada!

[@walkingstickwoman]

Glad for the updates. Just a thought, you have all the wood that you cut down. It would make good posts. At least to start with.

[@stickywicked447]

Just found your channel from watching my all time favorite Pohl Barn. I wanted say "MASSIVE RESPECT" for your faith and your lifestyle choices; you are definitely on a righteous path and I really hope this all works out for you and your family. That is going to be a beautiful home!

[@grampashorty8468]

Hey Kim, I was just thinking about you last week and low and behold...there you are!!! I have 1 word that will explain your hassle with your contractors.......Ineptness! that's the only explanation for American workers of today!!! I do miss your wood turnings so I will be praying for all this ineptness to go away so you and your family can live in your new beautiful house. I can't Waite to see you turning wood again. If I win the lottery, I want to buy you a Robust lathe. I have one and they're the best! Hope to get another update soon. Stay healthy and be safe. I pray you have a Happy and successful New Year!

[@davidjr9538]

You want it done right. And it should be done right .

[@samwyz69]

Thank you for the update. I have been thinking about you and wondering how you have been doing. I am sorry about all the troubles you have been going through in getting your home built. I will pray that all will go smoothly and quickly now so you and your family can get settled in!

[@murphymmc]

Sheesh Kim, as a home building contractor with 40 years+ experience, I'm heartbroken for you and disgusted with your builder. Even with the delays in goods being shipped, materials entering in the "larceny" realm, there in no excuse for what you're going through. I, and most of the builders I know in my region, do work as they would like it done for themselves. I'm getting too old to do a lot of the stuff I used to do, but the subcontractors I use do not have to be monitored to make sure they do it right. So sorry you have the kind of builder I warn people about. I pray it ends well and fast. I absolutely detest the kind of builder this guy has shown himself to be. This I saw from the beginning of your project. I hoped that it was just a misread from what I saw and perceived. Project management is critical, good subcontractors are critical, this guy is an embarrassment to the trade. He's an excuse making, needs to go out of business builder. I live about as far away from you as you can get in these United States , in eastern Washington state. I would, but I can not help you finish your house and it galls me to see this unprofessional clown-donkey create such misery for you and your family. I pray for a miracle.

[@dukaheritage9445]

Keep your shield up, you’re almost there. There’s definitely a greater feeling that comes with a solid victory after a walk through hell. You’re a soldier, just keep going ✌️❤️😎

[@lutherchristinaparker4219]

I can imagine after seeing your work that your definition of quality is different than the builders. You are a perfectionist in what you do. No shame in it! I hope you and your family are well! Stay safe and stay blessed!

[@AffordBindEquipment]

6:15 whenever I see a pile of logs, all I see are bowls... "Cast all your anxiety on Him for He cares for you." Phrases my wife and I use a lot is "in 100 years, it won't matter." and "it's all going to burn some day." and "That's a first world problem." Helps gain perspective.

[@KimTippin]

amen.

[@dbrown1576]

It’s good to see you up and about. Sorry it’s not going as planned, but it will get better.

[@cheryldoty8300]

God Bless! None of this is a surprise to God and while it’s frustrating everything works out for His glory. You have the grace and strength for this. Just know there are lots of people praying for you and your family. Happy New Year - 2023 will be a year of victory.

[@chiphardy7569]

I'm sorry the progress has been so slow, but it is progress. What you really need is some "turning therapy." When the time comes and you finally get back to turning wood, please post it so that we can enjoy the moment with you!!!!

[@burttsbowls469]

Great to see you again. I'm sure God will bless you in 2023

[@WhiskeyDale]

good to see you again. keep plugging away. one step at a time. keep the faith sister. looking forward to seeing some wood turning in the future.

[@jasoncarpenter4116]

We use both wood posts and steel posts together, the corners and one to each side of it we use wood and brace them and then set 2 to 3 steel posts in between to cut down cost and still have a fairly sturdy fence. Lots of luck, peace and blessings to go around

[@steveburney9105]

sorr for all the problems but lol someone else said hod will see you thur this can’t wait till you start putting out videos again

[@jarmstrong2843]

Thanks for update, Kim. Keep in mind as you put up fencing, deer can jump over a 6’-8’ fence. I saw them do this all the time on my land when I lived in New Mexico.

[@DougMilleratWoodSpunRound]

Thank you for the updates. Looks like the house is coming along, even if not as quickly as it ought to be. Continued prayer for/with you.

[@steveburney9105]

also praying for you and your family

[@kimr5841]

It looks like you are building in an area of beautiful homes. Do you anticipate any problems with having livestock on your land?

[@KimTippin]

We are having it rezone to ag/res. There are only 4 houses on our road, including ours. Many folks have livestock out here. The lots are 2 acres plus. I don't think we will have a problem getting ag/res. Hopefully we will have that done in the 1st year.

[@CovenGraphics]

we are tested in many ways, its best to concentrate on the solutions rather than the problems that can ruin our days and rob us of our happiness'! be blessed and joyous in the coming year!!

[@lynnbickle2536]

Kim, you have my sympathy and understanding. Been there on small projects and very very frustrating, can not imagine the sleepless nights with a whole home. Every trade seems to need to be in last or they undo work others have done and most don't care about quality. Hope all goes smoothly and you are in before your March deadline.

[@ronnielloyd4514]

Will be glad when you can start turning again.

[@roydawson9478]

The Spirit of the Lord will see you through. 🙏🙏🙏 God Bless you all.

[@KimTippin]

amen!

[@kevinwoodhouse7065]

Hope you progress with your home as soon as possible and get that builder out of your life and get your shop up and get producing art and escape the madness. Bless you all get creating soon

[@dougrowe1583]

Wishing you and your family all the best.

[@chadhenwwodschainsawswoodw2108]

God is with you Kim we all love you you will be in very soon. I look foreword to seeing your garden you be in befor end of jan i dont know how i know just a gut feeling. Love you Kim godbless

[@morgancalvi6675]

I think I read somewhere growing chocolate around the plants deters deer. It's always been a pet peeve of mine when people complain about wild life...they were here first...we are in THEIR space!

[@scharlottehart9321]

19:33 wow. It’s so good to see you again. I said a little prayer for you and your family today. God bless you!!

[@marjieyoung9570]

Happy New Year! Hang in there, the finish line is near. Love the updates. Vent away, what are friends for? We're here for you. Keep your eyes on Jesus and not the storm.

[@sonyhk3824]

Hi Kim great to see you, Happy new year to you all 🎄

[@christophertodd6405]

It'll all be worth it in the long run. Happy new year.

[@jamesbrunk9817]

Positive thoughts! Think of all the free turning blanks laying around.

[@arthurslaughter4122]

I was just wondering about you the other day. Thanks for the update.

[@reneed6954]

you can use your pigs to clear your land until they're slaughter weight, they are really good at turning up the soil and eating roots and overgrowth.

[@Kgj1966]

I'm sorry to hear that you are having so many problems with your project. God will see you through this 🙏. God bless you and your family. Happy New Year.

[@samuelsiedschlag4486]

Happy new year to you all.

[@sabbatia2759]

You’re getting there! I’m happy for you! You deserve to have it the way you want it. Happy New Year!!

[@cherryshrimp2359]

It was so nice to hear from you again. I'm glad to see that things are going well. Hopefully not too much longer before your in your new home. Sending you virtual hugs from Scotland.💜

[@robertcorrell4506]

So good to see you smile! Yes, home building is stressful, but the Lord has His plans. We don't always understand them, but don't give up the faith! Better days are coming! Love from Gainesville, Florida!

[@davidcummings6299]

Praying for ya kim and the family. It has been a shame of what has been blamed on the covid. hang in there we miss you.

[@dougrowe1583]

I watch any and all of your videos.

[@grahamlavis5742]

Happy New Year! Here's to a better 2023 for you and your family, not too long now.

[@ronfinch5532]

I feel really bad for you on the house situation. When I lived in that state I was a drywall finisher doing five houses a week and our contractor had a lady inspector that was very picky. It seems like nobody wants to do their job anymore.

[@mattmunton8613]

There used to be a saying “the customer is always right “. Your paying for it. You should be happy with the results.

[@snobear41]

happy new year Kim- for those who think turning with just safety glasses is OK- I had a bowl EXPLODE on me last week, if not for my face-shield I would have a big gash in my forehead LOL as it was only thing harmed was my pride and needing to change my shorts :-) Tyler I used to be a tile/remodel contractor so I feel for your troubles

[@jeanlong4285]

Good to see you, just checked on you yesterday. Glad to see a house even if it's not completely finished. I thought I would not live to see my house finished. We've been in it now for 20 years. It will happen, keep the faith. Happy New Year Kim.

[@suzanneleslie5105]

Prayers 🙏🏻 for you and your family...for your health and the issues with your house 🏠. We miss you and can't wait to see your garden and farm come together. ❤️

[@georgepauselli769]

Happy new year to you all 😻❤️💛XX

[@donaldtrabeaux5235]

Kim I’m so glad to hear from you, sorry that your health issues and dealing with the contractor, I will pray for you and your husband and for your house to be finished outside looking amazing. Happy New Year to you and your family god bless.

[@johnroyall2577]

Glad to see you’re getting your home together. I know it’s a lot of work, but it will definitely be worth it in the end.

[@danwarford9695]

Thank you for the update. May 2023 treat your better. Love from Minnesota!

[@tomlunn7266]

Hang in there.. you will have everything you want and deserve in the end.. forever homes are worth the wait and you good people will survive this. 🙏 Can't wait for the next update. Looking forward to the shop build as well. Love and light for you all

[@sueplummer6669]

Happy New Year for you and yours. Praying for a speedy and safe finish to your build.

[@robertblitch4702]

Wow, this is weird. When I worked construction,houses where to be done in like 58 days. Hopefully they hurry up and do a great job for you and your family

[@johnfoster6194]

Kim, glad to see an update on the house. Praying it will be complete in your time frame. On a side note, stress can create real health issues. (I know easier said) take a deep breath relax. As you said the next update will be the move in. Take care. 🙏

[@brendaspeight2106]

Kim it's wonderful to see you back. I'm so very sorry to hear of your problems with the house and your health. Stress is evil. But I pray 2023 is a much better year for you. You'll get there I'm sure. We're still here waiting for your return.

[@karengilchrist9774]

Good to see you! Sorry for the troubles you're going through but you are very strong and your faith will see you through it all. The house has so much light! And that's a great looking kitchen, I'd love to cook in there. It will all work out in the end, just keep believing.

[@alanmullock381]

Happy New Year to you and yours Kim,hope 2023 is a better year for all👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌😎😎😎😎😎

[@STMwoodturning]

Thanks for the update Kim. Sorry to hear your contractor is nearly a complete dud and continues to be so! Also sorry to hear about your health concerns-will praying for y’all. Stuart

[@davidzindman]

You do what you want to do Kim we will watch

[@phillipchristy7792]

Happy New Year. Hang in there

[@jamesbarisitz4794]

Some builders. Hope they get this one over the line quick, and to your satisfaction. Glad to hear you are still fightin' strong and determined as ever. Your health will improve when you get on a routine in the finished house. I'm rooting for you guys to see the last leg of the job through with the grace and discipline you have in abundance! Here's to 2023! 👍

[@THEAPRILFOOL-1983]

I'm happy to see your home has finally made it this way

[@MikeB0001]

HNY Kim! Hopefully 2023 will be a better year for you. Sucks you going thru all that. Is your fence gonna be 10 foot tall?..deer are pretty good jumpers ya know!😃

[@acwhit1593]

So glad to see you on KZbin again! I am so sorry for what you've had to go through with the house and in particularly with your health. Hoping you get good news soon in both regards!

[@janeoverby2151]

I was just thinking of you and the family the other day Kim. Good has this sweetie. Blessings and happy new year.

[@davidmahoy4478]

Happy New Year Kim, I’m glad you have given us an update, I understand the stress of taking so long after what problems you had in the beginning. When we built our house 45 years ago, it took 3 months. Will keep you in our prayers, hopefully they will complete the house before the permit runs out. Good luck, and keep us posted.

[@martineastburn3679]

Hope you have met the neighbors and on the side mention your garden in the front yard and pigs those might fly into their face so tread nicely and they might buy in.

[@davidzindman]

My you have a great new year and may it be a much better year prayers for you and your family 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍

[@jeffs7573]

Hi Kim, sorry to hear your issues with the builder. I am a Finishing Carpenter by trade, I have been in new home construction for the last 22 years, 95% of my work has been in high-end custom homes. From what you described about the builder and his site supervisor it clearly shows that they are a hack builder who cares nothing about the client, only their money. This builder is slow for what is being built, they are also very shady for their ineptitude for building a house without a basement, it looks like they are more of a production builder where quality is NOT one of their priorities. Hold back 15% of the final payment if not more, make them accountable for their work. I hate loser builders like this, they give ALL builders a bad name.

[@kimkimba1131]

I’ve been thinking about you this week, and was happy to see your update. Sorry you are going through the issues with the builders. I understand your frustration. The house looks good so far and move in day will be exciting for you and the family. Have you met any of the neighbors yet? Hope they are nice. Hope the doctors can figure out what needs to be done to help you feel better. Will continue to pray for you and the family. Have a wonderful new year. 🎉

[@KimTippin]

Thank you so much 💛

[@carolriley8472]

Wow, this has been quite the ordeal for you and your family! The house is looking good and your land is fabulous. I love your idea of growing your food...I have 4 raised beds and I love the veggies that I grow! Happy New Year and I pray that your house becomes a home real soon!

[@Robert-ve4sl]

Hey Kim, I’m just trying to do my shop and all my God I’m so sorry you’re going through that along with me and my granddaughter can’t wait to get back on that she will start turning. She’s 73 kg on sugar pens 1 1/2 a girl we need your back baby come on back teach me some more stuff

[@lakeshorewoodturner5136]

Great to hear from you. Hoping you can get this all finished up quicker than they are saying. Hang in there a little longer. Happy New year.

[@1954JDR]

Just hang in there. All of this will soon be behind you.

[@maddieadams75]

Have a blessed and prosperous New Year 🥳🥳🥳🙏♥️ I’ll keep you in my prayers 🙏🙏♥️ Kim frustration is not complaining. ♥️

[@drewsumrell]

Hey Kim, Happy New Year and so good to hear from you. I think of you guys often and hope the finish work progress moves more quickly. Hang tough, take care and God bless.

[@SteveC38]

God Bless Y'all! I'm so glad to see that things are coming together for you guys. I've been thinking about you a lot lately, and praying that things are going well for y'all. I wish you guys the happiest of new years, and I hope to hear from you again soon!
