[@terricheverie7840]

Prince Edward Island, Canada here, Patrick: Thanks for the great, entertaining (and educational )videos,

[@LifeontheMoose]

Hey PEI! 🙏

[@micheljean9446]

I am from, Ontario, Canada. I found you on KZbin and I have been watching all your videos ever since. Great work you are doing, very entertaining and educative.

[@LifeontheMoose]

Hey that’s great! I’m so glad you discovered the channel. 🙏

[@Loulou-nj7ji]

Love watching you’re amazing can’t believe you put those heavy beams all by yourself well you know what they say where there a will this away and you sure found a way to put them things up all by yourself😅looking forward to your next video! Until then stay safe stay strong and like always God bless🙏❤️✌🏼

[@LifeontheMoose]

I appreciate that! Take care and God bless. 🙏

[@miketroutman7365]

It’s Friday! I like your cutting board. I hope you had a great Independence Day to Patrick. Nice beams. That gave you a workout. Thanks for sharing another great post. Blessings..

[@LifeontheMoose]

Yes, it was a workout! Thank you for the kind words. 🙏

[@ritawilson8762]

Wrap solar lights around the bent tree. Archway to the kitchen. Nice ambience.

[@LifeontheMoose]

I like it!

[@MD-vp7yn]

Another great video. I watch so many log/timbre building channels and I just wanted to say, you obviously have a lot of skill, yet you are humble. However, it’s your attitude that keeps me coming back to support the channel. Keep the dream alive!

[@LifeontheMoose]

Wow I really appreciate that! Whatever the reason, I’m honored you keep coming back. 🙏

[@DaoMyBuilding]

You are very skillful, complete your work quickly and arrange your work properly. Your videos help me understand better. Thank you very much😍😍

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thank you! 🙏

[@MinnesotaMegOffGrid]

Dude- your a beast lifting that beam!

[@LifeontheMoose]

Ha! Just doing what I have to.

[@cuocsonglangnoigogang]

Your determination and skills in handling such a hefty project are truly impressive! You turn every challenge into an opportunity to showcase your creativity and resourcefulness. And I'm Floating Village Life.

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thank you!

[@murraydorrofield4826]

Legend mate great work watching from Australia

[@LifeontheMoose]

Much appreciated, Australia!🙏

[@jefflabrozzi9592]

Great video. Really taking shape. Happy 4th.

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thank you. 🙏

[@richardwhite3711]

@ 23:45 the deck stain looks very good !

[@smoke5620]

Hello Patrick, good to be back on the job site with you again! The Cook House design sounds real solid, a man with a plan 👍 Oh boy! A new Tool Belt, you’ll be styling. Well till next week, have a good one and take care of yourself Patrick

[@LifeontheMoose]

Hey good to have you back! 🙏

[@theoh6260]

I’ve been working on my cabin in the Ozarks this extended holiday weekend. Took a break to watch your video. Good motivation to keep me going!!! One man crew here as well..

[@LifeontheMoose]

Ah nice! Keep me posted on the Ozarks cabin. 🙏

[@RonaldoWimmer]

Hi, Patrick. These beams are great. They will be fantastic for this kitchen. And you are correct. It seems we are thinking the same, or almost, about the walls. I liked you idea too. Hugs, my friend. 😊

[@kensearle4892]

Nice work! I like your choice of open walls! That is a killer hand saw, cuts like butter.

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thanks! 🙏 I think I paid a dollar for that saw at a garage sale..

[@leebernardo1000]

Your old tool belt/pouch would make a great decoration in one of your cabins

[@LifeontheMoose]

I agree! I like that idea.

[@mikefesh4052]

Bravo....

[@frankchristensen5778]

Well done, Patrick, that COULD have been very hairy. Still following along from Australia. Cheers, Frank. P.S. Happy Independence Day from Down Under!

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thank you so much, Frank! Nice to hear from you. 🙏

[@leebernardo1000]

Could even be used in your outdoor kitchen to hold cooking utensils. Kind of a memorial

[@travisgrow4713]

Liking great

[@Maxid1]

31:25 I do like back handed compliments. My Dad was a master of them. He had many versions of this, "People say you're not fit to eat with the pigs, but I think you are!"

[@LifeontheMoose]

lol! That’s certainly a backhanded compliment!

[@TheBlueBirdguy]

That bent pine has great charm. At deer camp in the Northeast we would hang a plethora of things on it. From wet cloths to dry goods, towels and more. 😉

[@LifeontheMoose]

I agree, it does have charm! Something should be hung there..

[@JoannDowning]

HEY,,,lov from South Alabama...Every second of your video was great...

[@LifeontheMoose]

Aw thank you!!🙏

[@indianachrisUDX1313]

Nice Job!

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thanks!

[@indianachrisUDX1313]

@@LifeontheMoose You're welcome!

[@LewisEGilbert]

what a beautiful day!!

[@LifeontheMoose]

It sure was!

[@brotherbruce]

My neighbor didn't want to buy Simpson ties so he used 1/2 " thick plate steel and 5/8" bolts. Way overbuilt but it looked good. Your work looks good too.

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thanks! Except…I forgot to paint them black..

[@FrancisPeeters-kc3bd]

Nog niet aan gedacht om politieker te worden, zoals jij het kunt uitleggen 👌, hou er van. Hou steeds van je werk, zo nauwkeurig 👍, doe zo verder. Bedankt om mee te mogen genieten van de prachtige omgeving 😀. Groeten uit België 🇧🇪.

[@LifeontheMoose]

I appreciate you watching, Belgium! 🙏

[@karljenkinson361]

Great video as always , have you seen a ,,Kelly kettle,, be great for your lunches, and a great use of off cuts.

[@LifeontheMoose]

I’ll have to check it out. Thanks for watching!🙏

[@douglasthompson2740]

Not many people eat bear here (SE Alaska). This is salmon country and the bears are infested with worms from the spawned salmon. They are also off putting to many because when the hide is removed the carcass looks very much like a human. Up north they used to be used to feed the sled dogs (seems most everything served that purpose in the past century) but snowmobiles don't seem to run as well on bear!! Plenty of both Brown and Black available. Mostly trophy hunters from down below in the lower forty eight go after them. I have a few on my city lot and up on my deck that anyone is welcome to.

[@LifeontheMoose]

I can see that! I’ve only hunted and eaten mountain bears…mostly on a diet of greens and berries. They really are delicious. I have heard that about coastal bears…wormy and often foul-tasting. Thank you for the comment!

[@Gucc63]

From a 60 year old with 3 wisdom teeth yanking all 3 on my 60th year was one of my better decisions!! Love your videos total therapeutic Watch them during my breaks building my cabin in Muskoka Ontario Had ribeyes for dinner tonight 🎉

[@LifeontheMoose]

Hey that’s awesome. And yum! Keep me posted with the cabin build! 🙏

[@rutgershenk]

Looking forward to the roof

[@jlooseround]

You could take a few old 1x6s and cover up those strong ties so you can't see them. Nice look though Had the same issue getting pieces lifted that high. I took my forks and put them 4 inches apart. Then put an 8ft log on them and ratched it to the forks. Gave me an 8 ish foot long crane. Add a hook and you can really reach out

[@LifeontheMoose]

I need to rig up that crane! And good idea on the 1x6’s. I’m thinking fence boards… Thanks for watching!

[@EvLuvsMinPins]

another awesome and enjoyable episode!

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thank you!

[@edhibbard2348]

Thanks once again.

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thank YOU!

[@filjohn81]

Isn’t it awesome how far battery powered tools have come? I remember getting a ryobi combo set years ago with the old nicad batteries. The circular saw could barely get through one cut of a 2x4

[@LifeontheMoose]

It really is amazing. Just a few years ago the options were hand saw or generator. I’ll take a battery!

[@eydeekay]

10:58 Niiiice

Great work my friends! Keep pushing on! Love your hoe to on every video and explanation on everything you post! Love it! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼

[@LifeontheMoose]

I very much appreciate that! 🙏🙏

[@carlosrodriguezlopez310]

Great chopping board, and what about that knife?!?! Great episode again mate

[@LifeontheMoose]

Right! You’d think I could find a bigger knife. Thank you!🙏

[@timkaldahl]

You got me again. I jumped up to grab my end of the beam and then you said you had it.

[@LifeontheMoose]

😂 😅

[@dah61789dah]

Thought that temporary post was coming down at 22:50! Glad it didn't!

[@LifeontheMoose]

Ha you and me both! 😅

[@JohnTalbot-k6xi]

A+

I am from Australia.

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thanks for being here!🙏

[@douglasthompson2740]

By the way, I have done a few beams like those by myself. I used a 2 x 4 screwed to the side of the post with a choker at the top to provide a purchase for a chain fall. I usually did one at each end for an even lift but you can do one end at a time in stages and temporarily block it as you are going up to switch ends.

[@LifeontheMoose]

I like the idea! If lifting didn’t go well, the next plan was getting a rope in those nearby trees.

[@curtisbartle4381]

Moose Beam Approved

[@LifeontheMoose]

🙏

[@CorbinMusso88]

Part of me wishes I could just fix your belt for you. But it sounds like you really want a new one. 😁

[@LifeontheMoose]

I get that! And appreciate it. Forgot to mention that I’ve never liked the belt/clasp…it’s never stayed put. You’re right, I’m ready for a new one!

[@erikowren7894]

Maybe a tube of permachink would fill the large checks in the beam.

[@LifeontheMoose]

I like the idea!

[@LewisEGilbert]

'cause it wouldn't be sloppy bear without a good side of arugula!

[@LifeontheMoose]

Ha true!

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

That was scary watching you put up those beams.

[@LifeontheMoose]

It was a bit scary from my POV too! 😅

[@edro3838]

👍

[@jefflowe8803]

You better be careful your body is gonna write a “ check” that beam cant cash! 😂

[@LifeontheMoose]

lol Good advice!

[@rayyoder6929]

I've had "sloppy does"...but no sloppy bear....

[@kenlaliberte7905]

What brand cordless tools are you using? I like your videos. Watch them all

[@LifeontheMoose]

Thank you so much! I use mostly Milwaukee. I have a link to the tools I use in the video description.

[@CWS-h5z]

Maybe I missed something or just ignorant....but why did you use such big heavy beams for an outdoor kitchen? Also, I really appreciate seeing you use that triangle square as a cutting guide - I learned something new. Thanks for another swell video!

[@LifeontheMoose]

I bought those beams several years ago for a fraction of the cost. They are checked too much for permitted work. The roof is relatively flat and carry’s a heavy load. And yes…overkill! Thanks for watching and asking!

[@jerryf609]

Beam me up Scotty! I mean Patrick.

[@knowledgeandmultiskilled]

Make more sense to me to build a kitchen indoors. If you want to cook outdoors well there is an easy way to do that without building a kitchen, and I guess, for certain folks they would believe there is more than 1 way. If you have food you want to cook outdoors then all you would have to do is to prepare to make a fire outdoors, but if you never learned how to start a fire outdoors to cook your meals then I do not suggest, or recommend, for you to try it.

[@LifeontheMoose]

It will have multi-uses, other than making fires. Shade, weather protection, cabana, seating area, etc. Thanks for watching!

[@hannahwells9397]

Im the type to fix things too, I've repaired phone charging cords, but whenever I replace something someone always comes out of the woodwork to tell me i should have repaired it

[@jellyfish6796]

Nice job on the outdoor area, so.. how many episodes before you build yrself a rustic chair so I don’t have to look at that rustic plastic wobbly thing? 😂

[@LifeontheMoose]

Lol exactly! I was just thinking about how that dang thing gets more wobbly the warmer it gets!

[@tiger15-q3s]

Why don't you cut that little pine that is leaning over... It looks like it's in the way..lol

[@pati8142]

Doesn’t look like it’s hurting anything….

[@LifeontheMoose]

It’s a unique tree that isn’t really hurting anything. After losing so many trees in a fire, I don’t want to needlessly kill any more.

[@ram1brn]

I understand your need to replace the old one. But Just so you know you dont need a rivet gun for leather rivets Just a hammer and something to beat on a anvil, another hammer , something along those lines

[@LifeontheMoose]

Indeed! Thank you.🙏

[@christopherstinnett1234]

Random thought... I know things wouldn't be left there long-term; what might keep bears from ransacking the kitchen?

[@LifeontheMoose]

Nothing, other than the presences of humans and non-presence of edibles. Good question!

[@Z-Bart]

Whatsthisheresauceboss? Worcestershire sauce. Lol.

[@LifeontheMoose]

lol I was looking for that! Just had to make do without it.

[@Z-Bart]

@@LifeontheMoose Try marinating your next steak in soy sauce for about 20 minutes prior to grilling. Yummy!

[@LifeontheMoose]

@@Z-Bart yes! Had a buddy prep steak like that…it was delicious!

[@mikefesh4052]

If saw blade makers would only go 1/2" bigger it would make things easier......

[@LifeontheMoose]

So true!!

[@mikesalmon9945]

Yeah doin shit by yourself. I always seem to do it that way. I think it’s called the ice castle? In Florida. The guy set up, stacked up limestone blocks the size of cars. He said the pyramid would have been easy to build He was a big believer in tripods. Lift the weight and move the legs around I built my wood shed with large logs and raised them with the tripod and of course block and tackle. Worked like a charm And I see from one angle there is some perfect pecker poles in the distance. Save your back build a tripod for this kinda shit

[@Slydder68]

dude. sloppy bear? I could NOT stop laughing due to the play on sloppy seconds. stop that shit guy.

[@LifeontheMoose]

lol. Sloppy Joes!

[@MAB1907]

Hello from Midway,Tx I’ll be back to work in a couple of days if you don’t mind… and maybe you can front me some money ? I need gas to get back…

[@LifeontheMoose]

On it’s way, Midway! 🙏

[@christocambetes3074]

Please cut that bent pine tree. I just keep laughing.

[@LifeontheMoose]

🤔Nope! lol. Keep laughing!

[@momullinax612]

Refrain the elevator noise. Please

[@LifeontheMoose]

I’m afraid that “noise” will continue!

[@JohnAmes]

Why not take your tool and repurpose it something else

[@LifeontheMoose]

Good idea! I think I’ll do that.

[@mikefesh4052]

I've eaten Sloppy Joe's.... bare,,,, But I don't want to talk about it... Oh to be young and stupid again...

[@richardwhite3711]

@ 00:35 never ate Sloppy Bear before but I did have a sloppy girlfriend once LOL

[@mikefesh4052]

I've eaten Sloppy Joe's, bare....but I don't want to talk about it.... Oh to be young and stupid again....

[@LifeontheMoose]

lol, there’s a story in there I’m not sure I want to hear. 😂

[@TomNY]

Just wondering why you're building a kitchen when most of the meals you have on camera are thought of as roadkill by anyone with a palate.

[@LifeontheMoose]

Hmmm. I’ll just say that anyone who believes venison and bear is akin to roadkill either has been fed ill-prepared food, or has been fed very erroneous information. Either way, perhaps this isn’t the channel for you!

[@TomNY]

@@LifeontheMoose I was just busting your chops. Didn't think you'd actually read it. Different cultures eat different things. Many Hindu don't eat beef, many Muslim or Jews don't eat pork but many in Asia eat dogs. I've known folks that grew up in upstate New York, and New England in the 50s and 60s that had to live off the land and hunt for game, but I'm still curious why if the meat is comparable, it isn't on a grocery shelf or drive through menu. In the US if there's a demand for a product, there's a line of folks selling it.
