Primitive off grid log cabin build part 3

[@jimmysails994]

I’ve helped build 3 traditional and 1 kit log homes. I really like how you built this one. In my older age I think this is something I could do. Thanks for the inspirational video. It’s got me thinking.

I know your enjoying it during the scamdemic, Nice job

[@thetruenorthadventure9032]

I was just thinking the exact same thing haha, he got it up just in time!

[@regulardude2011]

I don’t get how one can dislike this video. Guy is building his own cabin and it actually looks great. The only thing I wonder, how quick will those 6x6’s rot?

[@Krakology]

Haters gonna hate The outside is coated in a water seal . Should last a long time Thanks for watching

I love that stove, we have the same one and it's perfect for a smaller space 👍

[@JosueUSMC]

What model is it? I’m looking for one myself thanks.

[@undercoverrobot]

Question...how is the water coming through the walls with the ( glue seal ) that you used ? Reason I'm asking, I may be building a cabin like yours soon. / Good video...lots of good tips. Thanks for Posting the video's!!

[@Krakology]

its coming through the wood,, trees are like big straws that pull water from the ground and thought-out the tree. i have since used water sealant on the outside and has stopped it so far. i also applied a sealant to the concrete and added a floor..

How warm does the cabin stay with no insulation

[@jerrypruitt7432]

did you film putting the roof on. would have liked to seen that. did you fast forward that part. seeing it done is one way to learn things.

[@Krakology]

i didnt do that part my self. , as i didnt want to take the risk of installing incorrectly and leaking. sorry i did not film that part.

[@scrapeyhawkins5299]

Hope you are not using acrylic laytex caulk on exterior...always use 100 percent silicone because acrylic latex will shrink and crack

[@COUGHLANFAMILY]

Good job bud....did you put anything like a thin foam piece or anything between the 6 x 6? just wondering....gonna do one myself!

[@Krakology]

the first layer i did, the rest no

[@jamesjohnson9668]

Nice

[@jerrymiller7024]

Would have been nice if you would have filmed the making of the roof

[@Krakology]

Sorry I subbed that part of the job out

[@ericstamper5879]

Total cost estimate?

[@denofearthundertheeverlast5138]

I've watched 3 parts so far, because while I was watching "how to" videos of building tiny homes/ shed to house conversion videos, I though to myself it seems like a lot of work with framing, sheathing, insulating, but I wanted a real log cabin but could not afford the "Amish" style with big round logs and I wondered if it could be done using 4x4/ 6x6's and googled it and here your video popped up, glad I found it, but.... I want to use pressure treated 6x6s, but they are about $35 and I dont know if it would be worth it money wise..trying to save money because everything I see with shed to house / tiny homes are expensive when you add in labor from the manufacturer if you get them to do it its like 3xs the price, what do you think is better in the long run ?

[@Krakology]

too many chemicals in my opinion to have my whole cabin made out of PT wood.. i did the first layer in PT but tahts it. if trying to go cheaper, find a lumber mill or a lumber yard and get #3 wood. the wood i got had cracks and knots ect , but liquid nails and those log screws really help it together

[@denofearthundertheeverlast5138]

@@Krakology Thanks for the reply, I'll look into that.

[@shanebeaudrot777]

Are your posts pine or cedar?

[@Krakology]

cabin is cedar , Only pine is holding up the countertop and the 2in board all the way around the top to give me more space for the doors

[@recoveringsoul755]

6x6 or 12x20" ? You cant fit all that in a 6x6

[@odahithedubious]

They are 6 x 6 cedar posts. The footprint of the building is 12 x 20.

[@windygorge1]

cost?

[@Krakology]

i got the cedar at $2.80 BF

[@membear]

6x6=36 square feet that's the size of a tiny bathroom.

[@Krakology]

6x6 in cedar logs, the cabin is 12x20
