Shawn, this is no longer a cabin in the woods, this is turning into a self sufficient structure, it`s gonna be massive with the addition of a bedroom, looking so cozy and homey. What you have pulled off here alone, with only hand tools, is absolutely incredible, the build is just stunning, I can`t even imagine how many linear feet of boards and lumber you cut by hand, I can remember in the winter when you had the last top wall log installed, and then said nope, I need to go one more for the upper loft, it is an absolute pleasure to follow you on this journey, the outdoor kitchen, is just through the roof, and now you have covered storage to keep the canoe out of the elements. This is going to be a big carbon free footprint, that will last for generations for you and your family, what an achievement, and a lasting rememberance of what you built and left as your legacy, it`s just astounding, well done sir.

Shawn, I’ve been watching your channel from the beginning and I can honestly say that you are one of my heroes. I find myself thinking about moving out to the forest and building my own cabin. I’ve begun my 5 year plan to learn the skills I need to do this as well as purchasing land in an area suitable for this. I have a lot to do in the next 5 years! On another note, it looks like Cali is living her best life! She hit the jackpot having you as her caretaker. I worked in emergency veterinary medicine for 12 years. The dogs and cats that had lots of open space to be themselves were always the happiest animals. Keep it up, I’ll continue to watch.

After watching your channel for the past two or so years, I got inspired to remodel my bathroom, top to bottom. Thank god for you and KZbin University for teaching me all the skills and tools I needed! I also installed a clawfoot tub, surrounded on three sides by wood-looking tile, so that if I get too old to get into that tub, I can build a shower stall. I put wood up on the walls, laid a wood-looking resin on the floor, built my own vanity with a live edge cypress countertop and copper bowl sink. I love my bathroom, and my hands will never be the same with the arthritis that developed after all that hard work! Some scheduled surgery this fall might help. It was worth it. Thank you for the inspiration and teaching me a whole new set of skills! Your daughters are lucky to have you to learn from! My grandpa taught me a little, but not anything like this! You CAN teach an old dog new tricks, and now I have my own tools to do just about anything! (I cheat with battery powered tools).

Hey Shawn this is just my two cents storing the canoe above the outdoor kitchen might be problematic first the cooking grease permeating on the canoe, high heat could warp and effect the outer layer of canoe.
