Hey man. Musician and instrument lover here, I’ve seen that piano in a few of your videos and I beg you not to throw it away. It’s probably over a hundred years old, just like the house, which makes it very valuable as an antique. It’s in very bad condition but I’m certain that there are piano technicians wherever you are, who are willing to restore it. Please send it to a piano service for the sake of preserving a piece of music history.

[@dcan911]

Old pianos are generally worthless unless in tune. I agree though, I couldn't bring myself to throw it away, butgiven how much of the fabric of the house this guy has ripped out, he probably is not of the same mind(?)

It is easy to criticize someone on the internet.

But at the end of the day, I am also learning things from you that I could potentially apply the next time I have a rehab project.

Great Channel! New Subscriber!! Former General Contractor / Engineer, smart move on your part to completely gut the cabin. I had a 1968 Chevy Dump Truck, great truck, still running!

I loved my old Chevy dump truck. Wish I still had that one

Hi!! I'm watching your channel from 96720. It brings back memories of watching my Dad work when I was a little girl. I am 80 now, and I love watching your videos!! I also love classic cars!! They sure don't make 'em like they used to!! Māhalo!!🌺

That’s awesome, I’m glad you enjoy the videos.

It’d honestly be really cool if you restor that old fireplace looks like it would be a nostalgic job to look back at when sitting in front of it

[@nathancooper1440]

It’s looking good, I love the extra steps you are doing to make it last longer. Awesome job

I work for a deck company. And we use the electro galvanized ring shank nails which are a pain to remove with a regular prybar. Everybody has their preference when it comes to nails or screws, i can personally understand why you use screws. Love the content. Your very good at what you do! Keep up the good work! 😊 👍

Love the sunbeams. Beautiful light will come throughout.

[@MichaelJBisbano]

Coming out nice. Your extra effort will go a long way into the future. Keep up the good work. I admire your integrity.👍✌

When i first saw you starting this project I figured, 'Okay, here's two chuckleheads, with a big dog, a pile of rubble with a roof and half a plan...this should be fun.' And it HAS been! And its a real testament to the survivability of Go Pro. Doin' good, dudes. Keep it up! (The cabin, that is)

[@peperetuque7744]

great job, thank you for sharing, love watching the tender loving care your giving to the house

[@lov34lif31]

Thanks for sharing your project. I found your videos today and enjoyed every bit! Excited to see more of the rennovation!

Gluing and screwing the floor decking down is way better than just nailing it. Floor will not squeak when walking around the room. Same always need to be done on stair treads material.
