Im suprised no one is commenting on the solar panels... That 2x4 isn't going to hold those panels when it gets windy. It was flopping around when you were installing the panels. You need to mount the brace to multiple beams under the sheet metal. You can prevent the roof from leaking by drilling a pilot hole, filling it with silicone, applying silicone to the screw, then screwing everything in.

[@feuerphonix9314]

👍

[@Ocymber]

was just about to say that

[@Steve-gd6zu]

Yeah, that solar panel mount was terrible

[@MattDogMail]

also those solar panels look like harbor freight 4*25w 100W solar panel thing and yeah not much power for that cabin if u decide to run a/c or anything that really needs power

[@shawnparenteau9395]

Obviously this cabin is purely for content, I doubt this is even their property

just put a plant pot outside

[@stevieboy6715]

Suggestions: First, some sort of water filtration system for drinkable water, second, a fridge or mini fridge, and third, a curtain for the loft windows. Great build!

[@samanthamcnallywatercolors]

You don't need a curtain unless you don't want the birds looking at you......

[@chriszmuda7773]

Water filtration is definitely a priority

Yeah. Maybe as an evolution. As skill increases, so does quality.

[@myRoxYT]

Ya that would be so cool

[@chickadeecentral]

Oh yeah I second this

[@dhgodzilla1]

Nice job, one thing I might do is install an easily changeable in line Water Filter before the Pump to protect it from Calcium & Sediment Deposits.

[@Masterplan15]

I was thinking the same

[@AshleyLynn918]

This is incredible! Y’all are so talented! Y’all should do a video / vlog, something like.. camping in my tiny home for the weekend. Show us what there is to do in the area. Hanging out in the tiny home. Cooking. Etc. That would be cool! 💜💜

[@jonathanscott476]

The cabin looks great, what a fun build! A couple things that worry me a little however... 1.) No housewrap. That's going to potentially mean moisture problems. 2.) No horizonal running OSB beneath the vertical siding. I'm sure this won't cause issues, however the nice thing about running OSB horizonally beneath your siding is that it firmly locks your walls into place. Without it, you do lack a certain amount of horizonal strength, which may be more noticeable on the 2x4 walls. 3.) Single pane windows. Depending on your climate this may not be an issue either...but I live in an area that can reach triple digits during the summer and -30 during the winter, double pane windows are a must.

[@ChayDenne]

thank you for your advice! this would be good to implement

[@kellyjaneisthename]

Does the creek lead into a larger body of water? Or lead off of your property? Did you guys look into how your dam/blockage will affect wildlife? This is definitely cool, but seems weird to mess with a natural water source.

[@adrianweldon4218]

I was kinda thinking this too. Also he said the water from the sink goes back into the creek. Which makes me wonder how much gray water will be going back into the environment.

[@maxzeyyy]

exactly

[@kellyjaneisthename]

@@adrianweldon4218 I don't think he said it goes back into the creek directly, but just straight down onto the ground. But, obviously, it could run-off into the creek since it's so close. Not to mention how it could affect the soil and even the foundation of the home itself. I know they said they wouldn't be using the sink much, but then that just means creating a dam makes even less sense. They could have just set up a small tank they'd rarely have to fill, or even just carry in one of those gerry cans that van-lifers use whenever they go to the property.

[@phillippia]

And to have sink water (and soaps, beer,food, etc used there) drain directly back into the creek. Not environmentally responsible at all. I figured the concrete mixed directly in the creek probably took out immediate wildlife already…so maybe it doesn’t matter at this point. Pumps can work in just a few inches of water. Seems like burying a bucket/ container partially at the bottom of the creek bed ( since they say it runs year round) would have done the job just as well and would have been far easier to remove later on.

[@rjtheoret]

It's not a good idea. Depending on their state and/or county, it is more than likely illegal.

[@lucaschung9284]

You guys should make sure more water can flow down the creek it already seems like it’s drying out

[@ppg8420]

Indeed. Great build. Awesome location but gotta poo poo the damn due to ecological impact and downstream life and neighbors

[@rosegeaber7533]

I was thinking the same thing. Kinda selfish.

[@wdjones4735]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Beautiful! I sure do appreciate time-lapse and your Dad! You all did a fabulous job👍🏻🙂

[@linecraftman3907]

Love the cabin, i was wondering, where does wood stove smoke go?

[@ChayDenne]

good question! i meant to include a text prompt saying that we bought the wrong one lol... the one in there now is meant to be for outside camping- we ordered a real one after the cabin was done- then we will take the chimney through the wall outside

[@suzi9soccer]

Is it just me or they didn’t water proof the house

[@TheCornDavis]

That's what I was thinking the whole time lol

im not lying this is probaly the most beautiful cabin build i have seen so far keep up the good work make them dreams possible and enjoy many movie nights inside your cabin thank you

[@criticalevent]

Since there will probably be a next time, if you're only going to use 1" foam anyway, you can put it on top of the sub floor, that way you don't have any breaks in it or have to worry about animals getting to it. As long as it's high density it will support a click laminate or you can put another sheet of 1/2" over top. Just build your door(s) frame with the extra floor thickness in mind.

[@pugsarecool404]

Couple things I thought about for the battery bank. Should really look into some sort of vent for those. Also, I'd figure out some sort of tray or base for those to be placed onto, in case one leaks battery acid. Great project.

[@andrewhenneberry9765]

Wow that's very amazing Chay. It seems like you got 3 homes.

[@DOPPELgameplayVIDEOS]

Great Build! Only comment I could make is looks like you used a double-plug cord to backfeed the outlet at 14:09 which could zap someone if it gets yoinked out of the outlet while the end is hot. It would be much better to use a Power Inlet Receptacle such as the Leviton 5278-CWP so it's a lot safer. But otherwise, good job!

Hello just great, the house is just great, really great and has everything you need.. Maybe you could just make a slatted frame as big as the mattress(es) and then just have slats so that the mattresses can air out. Experience worth it :)) and a small railing at the top is simply safer if you close yourself while sleeping turns far, etc., where the ladder is, you can leave it free, simply made of wood with slats and it doesn't have to be very high either.
