[@jmardavis2467]

Wish I was younger and in better health so I could even attempt to do this. Shoot! I wish I had the land to consider having a cabin like this built for me. I lost my wife (9/2020) and son both fifteen years ago. This house has too many memories that hurt every day. A place like this would be just the right refuge to escape and forget the pain. Great, fantastic, awesome job. Good for you. Enjoy it!

[@vadelm1]

After a while of binge-watching these videos, this is the first cabin that actually makes sense. It has reasonably sized and thick floor planks + wall logs and proper insulation between the logs. The only thing I would change is where the chimney is. You get a better draft when you make the chimney to go straight through the roof rather than horizontally through the wall.

[@theaffiliate4208]

As a Ex stove installer, fireplace mason and chimney sweep, you should have no more then a 24" horizontal for good draw and this vertical isn't even tall enough for that. I see he doesn't want to endanger the roof seal. So out the front or back side of the shelter would be best.

[@jamestaylor8860]

I agree and thanks for saying what I was thinking.

[@LillaFordos]

[@rickanon9912]

Agree about better draft. However, using basic materials like he is, would be next to impossible to ensure no leaks after a hole is cut in the roof. A trade-off.

[@limlaith]

@carmine redd They wouldn't put you in prison. The gov't would make you stop doing this or would fine you. If you were doing this on someone else's undeveloped land, then they could press enough charges to imprison you. The gov't basically leaves stuff like this alone unless private citizens make, as the saying goes, a federal case of it. Most often, if an individual doesn't own the land, then the state (not federal) government does. And you can't just do whatever the hell you want on someone else's property.

[@moonlightcheese]

I like this method of applying Japanese "yakisugi" style burn seal to the wood before setting it in the ground. I remembered your vid and had to forage my watch history to find this again.

I have yet to be able to appreciate this video for all that I am appreciating the audio. I suffer from extreme sleep disorders, really extreme, but I have found myself, several times, relaxing and spacing out to all the harmonious sounds of you building a tiny house in the wilderness. I need to go back and start over so that I may actually take in the breadth of what you are achieving here. I have never lived anywhere but in a city - except for where I was born. I was nearly born at home, at the base of a mountain, in Montana. Perhaps the moose and bears and deer and all the wonders of nature situated themselves in my psyche before my parents moved the family to a number of different cities. I have always longed to be able to do what you are doing here in this video. Thank you for welcoming us into your world.
