"... don't ever take on a project like this". My sentiments exactly, I'm halfway through my 'old cabin in the woods' it's been 14 yrs.😂😂😂

[@decibelfilm]

Surprised and pleased at how delicate and repercussion-free that porch canopy removal was.

[@MrClarkisgod]

That shit had 4 nails in it. It just fell off. 10/10 best case scenario.

[@piahooks9849]

I love it that when you say that you have no idea what you are doing; you go ahead and have a whack at it anyway.

[@aurielharris6503]

Yes please tell us you’re going to rebuild the wrap around. Porch it did give a lot of character

[@99Projects]

Yep I am

[@BarbieKP]

YT dropped you in my suggestions. Great fun binge watching so far. I look forward to more. This had been favorite fixer-upper series. I think that cabin waited 100 years just for you to come along.

[@WyoWellTester]

Same, your not even showing up on my subscriptions page

[@stephaniefinley7833]

I cannot believe how precisely and delicately you removed that awning

[@99Projects]

I try to be careful lol

[@camilleszalma4556]

@@99Projects You didn't say you were going to do it very carefully, one of my favorite lines of yours because inevitably it doesn't look like you were very careful at all, but I was impressed with that remove. Very precise as Stephanie said.

[@targettony1122]

I'm still getting the idea that it would have been easier to tear the old cabin down and build a new one. Still it's fun watching you breath life into the place.

[@spicydeath82]

that requires more permits, an architectural plan, more inspections, etc versus remodeling an existing structure. so time and money wise his approach is better.

[@banacek8675]

I agree. The place is a disgusting rotted mess of mold and termites. It will never be safe for habitation. A complete waste of time and money imo. And I don’t know who these inspectors are or how much they’re being paid off but the work is fraught with shortcuts and unsound practice.

[@ecconomicus]

@@banacek8675 Yeah, this no more than YT project for them. Still, fun to watch, but this cabin is no more than rotten shed and I'm pretty sure, that nobody will permanently live in there, when they finish it.

[@revolverocelot0088]

​@@banacek8675I don't think it's fair to say it's a waste, lots of experience and knowhow gained which will probably be invaluable on other projects

It's rare where I live, to see grown men work on projects. Anyway, it's good to see some skills survive with simple respect for fafo attitude, and sheer willingness to learn from experience. Ty, loving it.

[@99Projects]

You might need to find a new place to live lol thank you

[@happykt]

I recommend watching some "Maine Cabin Masters" who do stuff like this all the time, including leveling and replacing rotten beams and foundations on cabins.

[@jth086]

I think everything you are doing is awesome. Personally, I would redo all of the shingles. Most of the cost is with labor so doing it yourself would be tedious but so many of your shingles are rotting. Keep it up.

[@judyschepp8748]

AGREE!!!!🎉

[@ZepHezR]

That leaf blower cleanup was very satisfying.

[@RobertStricklandinKorea]

When cigarette advertising was legal, the word "satisfying" was constantly used. Salem was my favorite as they always used water and snow a lot. Always had sexy women and handsome men puffing away. Sorry, I got off track.

That corner was something else, there was nothing there. I keep being amazed that the building hadn't fallen down yet. This is my favorite kind of DIY video, restoration. You never know what you will find in these old places.

[@jeansonnea]

Woke up, eating breakfast, notification a video drop. Yep going to be a good day.

[@ViktorSarge]

Seeing a new video of yours always makes the dopamine sit up and pay attention. This cabin has been really interesting string of videos.

[@kirk467]

Never hurts to maintain a good piece of equipment brother! Those generators definitely come in handy when you need them!

[@gmel4967]

That corner band-aid is gonna support a lot of weight, I'd marry the floor joists together at least 4 feet in every direction into solid existing joists and set it down on columns.

[@foxfern9036]

The whole house moving at 15:00 was kinda creepy dude!

[@barryhunt5357]

Looking good, congratulations on the passed inspections, and yes, being clean makes a big difference, make it easy on the inspectors, makes it easier on us.

[@Boga217]

The inside corner you screwed in and said that'll provide support..nope not with deck screws. You need proper framing nails added or structural screws..otherwise it's a non structural support if done with non structural fasteners.

Keep up the good work man! Just wish I could watch these videos all day!!

[@grizz4321]

Love your videos, one suggestion. Take some of that used motor oil and paint it on the wood of your cabin where the concrete will be touching it. It will soak into the wood and make it less likely to rot out from touching the concrete.

[@99Projects]

That’s a good idea

[@IFarmWeFarm]

[@LucyJG]

Your woods are SO clean!

[@jeffrywilson7202]

My only suggestion for the corner rebuild is to run some bolts all the way through those blocks. That way, it makes it more of a single block that helps to carry and distribute the load. Right now, it's relying on the adhesive and screws and there are too many individual fail points. The bolts will help tie it all together to the original timber. I don't recommend a lot of products, but I highly recommend Gorilla Glue Heavy Duty Construction Adhesive 0 second set. I used it for building sets, and it's no joke. Once it sets, it's incredibly hard to break the contact. I've seen it delaminate luan, 3/4" cabinet grade plywood, pull chunks out of #1 and #2 pine in the process of trying to break apart a section to rebuild it. If you ever use it, make sure the surface is clean. I applied it to a painted surface once. Its hold was still strong, but only as strong as the paints hold on the surface. I had to repaint a small section because it pulled the paint right of the wall. We built some pieces out of #1 pine and 3/4" cabinet grade plywood and put them through a hydraulic press to test their fail points. Depending on the joint with the adhesive, they survived an average of 4 metric tons of pressure before catastrophic failure. But we're talking about direct pressure 3/4" × 3/4" joint. The results were absolutely wild. I'm enjoying this series, and I can't wait to see the cabin when it's done.

[@99Projects]

I will add GRK screws all the way thru. Thanks for the recommendation

[@jeffrywilson7202]

@99Projects No problem. Yeah, the GRK RSS 14225 screws have a shear strength of 123,592 psi. That's a bit of overkill, but with the changing climate the house sits in, those screws should be able to endure the abuse they will take for decades

[@kirk467]

Concrete is definitely going to support it like the other side! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Helps to keep the moisture out of the wood, hopefully! I figured you would be using treated lumber for the repairs! 🤷🏼👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@davekauffman8727]

Learned plumbing and electrical work by experience, and watching a few videos here on You Tube, I'm not paying some dude to work on something I'm perfectly capable of, unless my car is on a flatbed and I have to let them replace wheel studs that broke off, after the shop that put the wheel and new tire on over torqued the lug nuts. Not sure I'd have taken care of that corner that way, but laminating 2X6 boards that way looks sturdy. I'd have burned that pile of dead wood right where it was, because I'm lazy, and it wasn't that close to the cabin. But, you may have done the right thing, I don't know the laws about burning waste wood. Looks like you've got this well under control, I've made enough mistakes to learn a few things, and although I might have done things a bit differently, I like your style 🙂

[@dennisgibble7166]

Dude great job with the skid loader ! 😂

[@73Quiksilver]

I really dig your multitasking level by operating the skid steer and flying the drone at the same time ! I drove a skid steer for around 6 years at a previous job i had and it had the clamps like you did. Are you going to leave the cedar shingles on the cabin and power wash it ; that'd be really satisfying to watch ? I absolutely enjoy watching the progress on the cabin, keep up the good work !

[@99Projects]

Thanks. Yea im keeping the cedar shakes

[@_t0x.cl0wn]

I somehow developed the habit of always watching your videos while drawing, it may sound weird or literally no one cares but your videos are really interesting and inspire me in a way, I can't really explain but I'm really glad I found this channel!

[@99Projects]

I was thinking about this today, my channel is mostly meant for entertainment purposes but I’m fortunate to have the platform and I want to help people. I think…I hope one of the ways is to motivate people to go do something. Doesn’t matter how big or small just do something, learn something…in your case, drawing. That’s cool to hear

[@TheHomePros6221]

I really gotta get a grapple for my skid steer, and those case skid steers that u got are really tough and reliable

[@99Projects]

Dude I should have bought a grapple years ago. Make sure you get a high quality one. Not the cheap marketplace model. They should have grease fittings on the pivot points.

[@geraldhaggard1018]

I'm curious if you've researched the history of the cabin and it's previous owners. That would be interesting reading!

Could you add some kind of total amount of money/budget for different kind of works, or whole cabin in total? E.g - the whole plumbing cost - $$$? As I am watching this video from the eastern Europe - it would be pretty interesting to compare. But in overall keep going, really interesting videos!
