I Robbed the Kitchen Build (Again) to Side His House w/ Cedar.

[@dav1dsm1th]

I stopped screaming about the house-wrap around halfway through, when I guessed you must have decided on another approach. I wish I'd kept shouting now. You may have heard me from over here in the UK 🙂. Thanks for the videos. Stay safe out there.

[@mrpaul6971]

You're forgetting the house wrap Ryan! Don't pound the nails in! 😂

[@debinapzok8260]

You are so not stupid. If a mistake is made during a project, which every builder has done, you always use your brain and creativity to modify the error and that modification always works out to the better. Humility is one of your many attributes that makes a 76 year old woman look forward to watching a man build things. LOL. not what i would normally click on for sure. Your mellow personality and your obvious love for Kuiper and your far reaching talent and skillset, you even sew, makes me look foward to the next video. Plus I am catching up from past videos. 😊

[@MagicWindowProductionsMobile]

You could look into an Expanding Foam Insolation Kit, 4lbs for $100, It needs to be 70 degrees but you could put a heater in that small area and it should work. Be a total problem solver. 🐾❤🐾

[@marianfrances4959]

"...the furball..." 😅 He really is hilarious!!👍😎🇨🇦🐾😂

[@thomasfouts2700]

You sure do care about Kuiper. I know that feeling when the dog is gone from sight. It's a sick feeling in the pit of the stomach! Respect! I think now you should rigid foam the wall cavity, insulate and then put a vapor barrier, not house wrap, and then your wood wallcovering. It will prevent the condensation. Don't be so hard on yourself. Keep safe, healthy and moving forward. PS. You deserve way more subscribers! This is the best show on the Interwebs! And Ryobi should sponsor your videos!

[@123turby]

@@thomasfouts2700 excellent idea. Before house wrap all we had was tar paper and that was not really good. You know what they say about the cat. Get the knife out.

[@sandratweedale2579]

That precious dog is just so full of joy it’s wonderful. He’s an amazing friend. What a great companion he’s going to be this winter. Stay safe and warm

[@MichaelEdelman1954]

You have a lot of options. I’d cut foam insulation blocks to size and use aerosol foam along all the studs. Then house wrap, then indoor walls.

[@josephsimonic6946]

I’ve always loved your channel. Just wanted to say that Kyper makes it that much better. 😀

[@edemup44]

I bet he is tracking deer down a deer trail. If that is what he is doing that is an amazing skill you should utilize.

[@weoff507]

Great stuff closed cell for all the edges and 2 inch foam board. Insulation and bug barrier. Or with your great expertise you could look in to getting a spray foam kit and DIY the crap out of it like everything else.

[@DavidHagrid1]

Two of your admirable qualities are your patient and persistence. Take the boards off and do the house wrap. You’ll sleep better.

[@Badgermilk-zc2wy]

Great stuff big gap spray foam cans are cheap, closed cell with added structural rigidity, will insulate and create a vapor barrier. You just have to stack horizontal foam lines, it’s really sticky, and each row you spray will support the next one above. I’ve used this method, and it works great. Good luck!

[@altonearnhart2000]

My home, circa 1790 was built w exterior board on stud method. I read lots of suggestions to use foam... my peronal experience is, if u choose to use spray foam, carefully line the stud cavities w tar paper b4 spraying the foam. If you don't, you can forget being able to remove a siding board in one piece in the near future. Foam insultion board in stud cavity, 1/4" air space, then tekfoil using the tape to the interior of the stud cavity has worked as an alternate to spray foam.

[@Colorcrayons]

Iv'e been subscribed for a couple years now and have always enjoyed your videos. I respect your game. Seeing how much you love your dog and how worried you were about him running off, showed the true extent of your character. You're a good man, Charlie Brown.

[@michelestellar7725]

You can use a thin layer of foam on the inside, small sq ft kits available. It will really make it bug free .

[@susanj8158]

Yeah, maybe spray foam is the solution...?

[@lindapetersen1800]

Kyper is going to chew on the outter wrap RYAN !!! I betcha anything he will go to it on that stuff !!! Butt I like what You have done there with the puppy house !!! If need be use it for storage ??? The Dog house you can put other lumber the other way from the floor boards !!! That is a IDEA !!!

[@greggaitchison7861]

Ryan, as an experienced dog owner, just want to let you know that it is never over worrying about your dog doing a runner, no matter how much you train him. It only takes one time for them to run after a critter of some sort, which I’m sure you have plenty where you are…and depending on the season, you will have to tie him up, simply for his own safety…and thus your peace of mind.

[@denisewilson8367]

Use bubblewrap under the floor of the doghouse it will send the dogs body heat back to him in winter, and keeps the hear out in summer.

[@fredcarter7003]

I have been watching your videos from day one and haven’t missed one, you have come a long way and that’s amazing Ryan congratulations

[@thomasfouts2700]

Ditto!

[@jimmylester4539]

Double ditto!

[@robertdillon9989]

Use aluminum bubble wrap insulation or put a layer house wrap, and then another inner layer of wall board after insulation

[@TafferBoyElvis]

That dog is hilarious. Glad your unique personality found a dog with the same.

[@waynemiller6945]

A Work/Cost Analysis appears to be in order. Listening to the extent of additional effort to overcome the house wrap issue... Would it be less effort with a higher payout over time to remove the siding & assemble the dogcabin correctly? I think maybe so Kuiper. You need to tell him you're worth it. You're a Good Boy! Wayne

[@mkeyx82]

Sounds easier to pull the siding down. Not sure how much effort is it to remove the caulk.I guess it can be cut in the middle.

[@jamescobb3037]

Hey man I love your content. Please make sure you’re finding time to connect with people at least weekly. I want to see you succeed and I worry about you. Keep killing it!

[@criticalevent]

Do your floor 1" foam board, tape the seems, then put something over it like vinyl laminate and it'll be easy to clean.

[@denisewilson8367]

Limestone doesn't stay in the driveway. I bought "AA DRIVEWAY GRAVEL with fines." I had to have them drop it in place as they unloaded bcuz it locks in and doesn't want to grade into place. It's hard as concrete after you drive on it a few times. It doesn't shift. It does scrape off when plowing snow. Well worth the money and it was cheap when I did my long driveway back in 1994, has never washed out or rutted. Before I did it, our first year there, I sunk my 3/4 ton Chevy conversion van up to the axles. Had to cable out to the road to the tow truck to get it out. It's still in perfect shape.

[@123turby]

Just a suggestion but I use to do a lot of caulking. What I always did before loading the caulking gun I would put the tube in my manual caulk gun before puncturing the tube and give it a good squeeze and that usually stops the mysterious runway caulking.

[@darthgbc363]

Add wood fire ash to your soft spots. It worked great for my brothers' gravel driveway.

[@dennisslattery499]

Anything can be used as a hammer, except a screwdriver! That’s a chisel! Your so blessed to have Kyper. I know the feeling when you learn that your Dog is missing! That collar is really helpful. Your Dog is going to be a smart one! Thanks for sharing. I don’t know if you have gotten any spinal injections, just want to say they changed my life and get 6 in my neck, and 5 in my lower back. Allowed me to return to construction work and most all injections results were remarkable and the neck injections were needed about every 3 years. my lower Back where, I fractured several vertebrae requiring shots more frequent. I didn’t like all the MRI’s and having my head bolted down! Good luck with your treatment and get to know therapeutic exercises which help your condition. I like lying on my cold hardwood floor when I get hurting. Thanks again for sharing your adventures in da UP

[@davidgoen4331]

I was always taught a screwdriver was a pry bar. Thanks for the chisel idea.

[@richardsherrod2610]

Kyper is so cool 😎

[@mikefalanga437]

Easy fix ! Just buy yourself some of that 1 inch insulation board, cut them to fill all the holes between the studs, then run your house wrap all around then some OSB plywood as walls, and call it good

[@jdram58]

Well you could get a "deisel heater" people use them for cabins and tents or RV's n use it as a backup to thaw out your water tanks.they are pretty cheap and efficient Ice fishing.

[@MichaelMori-sf4fi]

lots of comments on the house wrap solution but another issue on keeping the cabin warmer is to skirt all around the cabin and put plastic or tarp underneath the cabin for moisture, would save a lot of propane, in my opinion,enjoy your videos.

[@Alltarious]

Weird thought, He might be chasing a friend, maybe a female coyote in heat or a deer or something. Its to specific and odd to be just a weird happenstance. Youll figure it out eventually I am just thrilled lil dude will come running with the button push. Love your videos man, best part of my saturdays

[@stevewalters4565]

Yes I think everyone was screaming but I was trying ESP! Didn’t work, sorry. Get some metallic screen in the walls before you install the house wrap. Should prove almost as good maybe better. The floor use the insulated foil stuff and skirting. Do you have issues with condensation in the winter using propane heat? Puppy home looks awesome and he’s going to love it! Great job! Keep on Truckin!😎🇺🇸

[@myrnabergman9232]

You are so funny. (not easy being stupid )😂😂😂 Enjoy you lots and Kiki too. Best wishes from Idaho

[@rickardjohnson4524]

Recycled Fine crushed Cement will solve all your situations, theirs know problems theirs only situations that need solutions?... Thumbs Up Dude!!!...

[@malikto1]

Sealing the inside should help. Since there is a roof overhang not much water should hit the siding. Maybe spring for rigid foam panels on the inside all caulked.

[@DonnaCouture]

Kuiper has turned out to be a really smart dog. I enjoy watching your interactions with him. Nice job on the dog house.

[@JannietaHanekom]

Thanks, I enjoy your videos and you are sooo loving and good with beautiful Cyper ❤

[@robinsouth8555]

I like the small ryobi batteries, because I'm a small woman, and I can change them one handed, it takes 2 hands with the larger batteries. Just have to change batteries more frequently.

[@NavyGatorMyEye]

I've been wondering if an inside drape made from some super-heavy material - like an x-ray gown, or a magnet-style tent flap - rigged to always close after entering/exiting the new hole in the cabin? It might help to keep temps stable. So funny when you said skylight I had just been thinking the same thing. Only here!! Lol... As always, thanks for sharing!

[@jongunzel]

You could spray the inside with bed liner. Then it would adhere to the wood and you could wash the inside layer really easy.

[@beewithay6226]

I was definitely yelling that you forgot the house wrap while my son was asking what I was so worked up about hahaha

[@christopheranderson8619]

Those dang earbuds you didn't hear me yelling "HOUSE WRAP" 🤣

[@MrSTOUT73]

As a last resort cut the house wrap to fit and glue or staple it to the inside. At least it'll cover any cracks.

[@jameshall3482]

The cool weather makes your dog feel good run and play. Take care.

[@barbaraturner2611]

It'll be alright Ryan. Add insulation and vapor barrier all around the inside of the walls and ceiling, then add some sort of interior wallboard or panels. I bought a yard shed and did this - works fine. But yeah...I sure tried to get your attention!

[@muddy11111]

Not house wrap, you need a vapour barrier between the insulation and the internal boarding. Use polythene sheeting, or if your insulation has a foil back then foil tape the joints. Either way it stops the internal moisture getting into the wall. The outside timber will breath naturally. You will have no interstitial condensation, happy days.

[@bobflores]

When you started with the tar I said, "he forgot the house wrap". How about spray foam on the inside. It will function as an air barrier. You could use it under the floor as well.

[@pnowikow]

Spray foam would be the best option now. My understanding is that sf stops moisture too. There are diy kits perfect for this.

[@janinewelle4429]

Hello Ryan get er done Love it 👍🥰❤️💖❤️🇺🇸🙏

[@jmar5787]

GM Ryan, you could insulate the inside of the dog house and then vapor barrier and finish the inside.

[@lukeyetsterjones]

filling the holes wont solve the issue of moisture that you get seeping through, since there is no house wrap your best bet now would be spray on foam insulation which will give you a vapour barrier and insulation rating too IMO, looking forward to seeing what inventive solution you come up with you always make me think from another angle! :D

[@wickedmessenger1]

I was screaming at the screen the whole time: "HOUSE WRAP!!!!"

[@Fudgieguys]

You can always wrap the inside and underneath.

[@dennisbeaver5958]

Well, every build has to have some setbacks! Still looks terrific!

[@pauleddy5146]

Ha! You had that right. I was reminding you about the house wrap, but you couldn't hear me, like I can't help hold the dumb end of stuff for you.

[@SteveInMaine207]

Should put a big push button switch on the floor in the corner by the door that pushes the lights on or off with each press of his paw. Then teach him how to use it with treats. 😂

[@SteveInMaine207]

Put another switch that's 3 way inside above the cabin to dog shed passage with an LED in it so you can turn it off during the night if he falls asleep without turning it off.

[@charlesvalkyrie4096]

Love your videos keep posting please and keep pushing forward. Sounds stupid but one of my Orange kitties jumps in my chair and sits down to snuggle with me when he hears your voice come on my tv and he just sits there and watches. He only does it with your videos and its the only time he allows cuddles LOL

[@jerryslater5173]

I remember wrap

[@Ravedave5]

Have kyper sit at the boundary turn off the collar and then use a command to let him come through. He'll understand quick he cant pass without you.

[@bishopkinlyside8477]

Hi, yes I was saying you need to put the rap on anyway you’ll get around it one way or another kyper is turning into a wonderful dog he is a big dog , Anyway, keep up the good work Cliff from Logan city, Queensland, Australia 🇦🇺 I’m on the big island 🏝️

[@michellesanford9334]

Yes!!

[@rudyfisher7660]

When you get one, you can also have a trailer. Hitch hooked to it, and then you can use it. You hit a little trailer and put a boards in the bottom of it, and then boards on each side to hold the rock, and then you can ride them in, dump them out and then spread them

[@billiehuskins8129]

Love watching Piper ❤......

[@sarkybugger5009]

Kuiper!

[@johnhamilton3987]

They sell a can of spray insulation you could use on the interior

[@michaelrichter1465]

Next year you could spray thinned polyurethane of your choice, spar being the best for outdoor I assume. A bandage that would help somewhat. I think a good question is' if one is using green wood siding, wouldn't ship lap joints routed along mating edges prevent some leakage? Butt joints with uncured lumber not so good me thinks. Oh well. there's always roof cement companies that need to flourish.

[@marcomcdowell8861]

Boss, Kuiper isn't going anywhere. He knows where you are, where the food is and where security is. He's just doing that dog thing.

[@jdram58]

I been watching videoes about a "Snowdogg" im thinking about getting one myself its like a mini snowmobile but you can use it year round you can sit or stand behind it on a sled or wheeled trailor its pretty amazing for you when felling trees it would be great dragging them out of tight places think has like 13 hp engine max speed maybe 20- 30 mph but good or fun to cruz around in winter or ice fishing Id say kind of family friendly and much cheaper then a snow mobile but looks like a lot of fun to year round and fairly fuel efficient maybe 50 miles on a tank of gas making trails moving things around like say an Ice fishing tent and can operate on fairly thin ice because its fairly light maybe 250 lbs. You can buy them or build them yourself tearing apart old snowmobiles so you could build one for less then $500 bucks if youve got the time and space and tools.

[@cheryesido364]

An old/new spring loaded window blind, remove the material and replace it with flyscreen, mount it upright and have 2 tracks - top and bottom for it to travel in?

[@jessestanley6381]

Good morning sir good to see you and your dog

[@lesternielson9280]

Maybe try spray foam in the wall cavities?

[@alanbierhoff6831]

For security reasons (when you’re not at Ringworm) you might want to be able to secure the dog house door from the inside too (as well as from the outside) if you lock the cabin’s front door. I’m kind of surprised that you don’t own a set of gouges.

[@lucidmoses]

In filling the house wrap will put the studs on the cold side of the vapor barrier and cause moisture problems in the wall. I use bulk desk screws for outside stuff.

[@allenmouldey7784]

Yep spray foam would do both jobs at once.

[@lynettescott682]

Kiper is funny and it's okay. You'll be able to figure it out and make it work great video Ryan.😊

[@keithsalvatore5550]

What about spray foam? Its so small it shouldn't be too costly.

[@claytongraybill9370]

Yep Ben dating from when you did first board on back side saying where your house wrap maybe he just going to put on inside

[@jannewallerius6823]

I think your custom board over the entrance on the dog house would look a lot better if you made it symmetrical.

[@somedavehikes]

just screw a few boards to the front, and take the whole wall off at once; so you can get to the studs again.

[@somedavehikes]

and ask for help lifting it off & back on... I know you can do it!

[@ChatterontheWire]

lol yes, been wondering whre it was, when the caulk came out, just shook my head!

[@BenjaminKlahn]

@11:00 that's gotta be about saving your battery. Continuous updates like that draw a lot of power.

[@donrosss3076]

Wait for the caulking to dry and use a utility knife to cut out the caulk pull all the boards off, yes the nails are pounded in but yes they can still be taken out, then apply the house wrap and put up the boards and recaulk the cracks???

[@donrosss3076]

Pound the boards from the inside with a hammer about a quarter inch,then go outside and tap the board back into place and the head of the nails will pop up enough to be taken out

[@dadmezz4024]

Well, you did not hear from me because I MISSED the wrapping. Sorry about that. That is all I had to do while viewing, keep an I for the misses even though they are few. I did catch the nailing home on siding and wondered if that would be a mistake. You may like the foam insulation ideas commented here. Something new to try. Nice to see what you come up with. We all love Kyper, your reactions with each other, and he is so brilliant because of you. Stay safe and warm.

[@rudyfisher7660]

You can even take the close cell phone and go to the bottom of your little dog cabin there. Push the phone, cut it the size for each section and push it up in there and then run board across.You don't have to run on board all the way.Cover the whole bottom, you just run it across just to hold the foam in

[@rudyfisher7660]

But you will have to cover the foam on the inside, where the dog can't chew into it. Because it's not good for him. Put you some boards on the inside wall to cover the phone to hide it from piper
