Haha about time you did something for all that labor he has given you for free. Oops 🙊 haha bro just joking. Sorry had to get a new KZbin account my old name was BigP which I talked with you on your channel about the I F pool in North Dallas area. Wife and I got hacked cause the AT&t breach. They hacked our accounts and took our phone numbers switched carriers on us.

No need to remove the pretty holly tree - whether or not the maple makes it. Simply remove the lower half of the limbs from your holly tree and you can stand and look out the kitchen window to the pond - all the way to the far side. The holly tree will get taller and you will have a pretty view and a nice specimen tree.

@leroyaultmon Ай бұрын

Chris, you should use the nice scraps you have left over for a nice dog house it will match the cabin perfectly

@arkansas1336 Ай бұрын

That is an excellent framing carpenter crew! All the headers are properly sized and the floor joists, studs and rafters are "stacked." I'm glad to see professionals of that quality still exists.

@heatherlane9270 Ай бұрын

It's what I would call a farm cottage - a little smaller than a house and a little larger than a cabin. No matter what it is a pretty setting and the colour scheme chosen will blend with the surroundings beautifully. That hay field is magnificent - great hay making weather too. Loving it all LetsDig18.

I remember when this was all a dream Chris had a few years back when he bought the additional property and started cleaning and clearing ,Knowing Chris it's going to be awesome

I am so jealous, that "cabin" is bigger than my house and about 53 years newer. Soooo jealous! It will a great place to spend quiet relaxing times. Congrats on realizing a dream.

@donnamullins2089 Ай бұрын

Chris try trimming up and or pruning the holly bush. I does have a great shape and there is a mate on the other side I think? You can always cut it down later. Beautiful cabin. Great attention to detail by the builder. Can't wait to see the siding and roof. Proud for you. Take care and have a great week.

Thumbs up on the conditioned crawlspace. I did that to my crawlspace about five years age and it has made a huge difference in the comfort of the whole house. I'm on the water in eastern VA and humidity is no longer a problem and the maple floors are now stable from season to season. I used a system from a company in SC and it worked really well.

Wow wow wow Beautiful house / cottage. Yup goodbye holly tree. Those smaller trees just need a little pruning. Drive a ring of holes around the maple at the drip edge. To put in fertilizer in them. To help boost the maple tree. You really do have a eye for perfection.

Encapsulated crawlspaces are the way to go in the hot humid South.

@DeweyCheatumNHoweLLC Ай бұрын

Odd, my sister in Jacksonville, NC says they keep wanting her to add more venting

@95thousandroses Ай бұрын

@@DeweyCheatumNHoweLLC Thats right for a vented crawlspace as usually there is insufficient venting. But even then, depending on how humid it is outside and how cold the a/c is set, you can still run into issues even with copious amounts of venting. Encapsulating and conditioning the crawlspace eliminates those problems. But encapsulating isn't right for every situation and is more expensive to construct than a vented space. Cancel Reply

@DeweyCheatumNHoweLLC Ай бұрын

@@95thousandroses Thanks. Now I understand it. Where I live, a crawl space is a novelty, usually a house built 100 years ago. That's why it's interesting to see that you can just level off a site, pack in good clay, and lay a slab on the ground. We have to go 4ft down for frost heave. But, we also get the benefit of having a huge basement to use.

Keep the holly tree if you can. At Christmas time lace it with coloured decoration lights and the usual trinkets to provide some thought and character. Try it for one Christmas, if it fails take it down afterwards.

Looks good Chris, very nice. I did the same thing on a beam in my sun room and was going to do the ends with steel plates to make it look more rustic, but I found a company that did all that in rubber "of course non structure" but the looks were phenomenal, imitates steel to the Tee!!! and lighter, HA!

I'm loving it. I can see why you use this contractor. He tries to be as efficient as you doing a job. That's almost no waste and everything is done exactly like you asked. I'll be surprised if you aren't booking 2 years in advance for the cabin rental as soon as you announce it is available. Hope you don't have any issues with government inspections. We all know how things are with the government. I can't wait for the next update and hopefully you get a lot of hay also. Great video Chris.

We have a lake house on Lake Keowee in SC. It has a 12 x 40 back deck overlooking the lake. 1/3 of the deck is covered & screened. That’s the part of the deck we use 90% of the time so I’d encourage you to screen in the covered part of your back deck. Looking really great!! 👍😀

Looking good ,great setting and it's going to be a quality build . Hard to find old school builders who don't leave a mess,don't waste materials as you said . I've watch workers on sites sitting next to the rubbish skips ,eating lunch and just throwing their waste and rubbish on the ground . Hard case that the only machine left at home was the loader/tractor,guess you need double ups of the machines so you don't run out 😅

Hey Chris, I like the look of the cabin. I like the idea of a ramp, at least in the front. That makes it accessible for someone like me who uses a wheelchair. I wish I could visit a place like this, but I am not able to travel much anymore. Best of luck in your adventures.

@davidhanson2351 Ай бұрын

Please save the holly tree. I would trim them all up so that you just have a top canopy, as somebody else is suggested, and then if it blocks your view which I don’t think it will from my La-Z-Boy, you could cut it if you have to. But I think trimming the trunks up so that you have a nice clear canopy underneath it might save the trees. I think all the trees along the water edge would be trimmed up to make a beautiful view. It’s already beautiful, but I think it would be better. Sorry for rambling.
