Off Grid LOG CABIN Build / Lifting Heavy Floor Joists to the Loft (S3 Ep6)

[@12esinlung]

As much as i want to see this labor of love completed, I really don't want this series to end.

[@barnstar2077]

Indeed, hopefully there will be other projects to do after this one!

[@scaccu]

when it'll happen there is a canadian, i think, guy who is basically constantly building cabins in the wood, the channel is called myselfreliance. he'd not stop until there'll be a single tree to chop.

[@dawnajamison430]

@@scaccu there is a guy that is starting over again he just finished his green house. THE SELF RELIANCE. Good stuff

Was anyone praying that the beautiful glass door wouldn't be broken. Nik you are a master craftsman, your videos and work are second to no one.

[@robertjwilliams3532]

Just wish you could have installed the 3rd floor before the glass!!

[@silvsiri3478]

It won’t end, once a tinkerer always a tinkerer.. he will always be creating

[@Chris-lp2dk]

Not you are hard at work may Allah give you continued strength physically spiritually and mentally until completion

[@UntilNowInMyShoes]

Maybe the most zen thing to me is that Nik is no hurry at any point. It takes as long as it take. You never see him rush, cut corners by doing something half a**, or just say I don’t want to do that because it’s hard or tedious. I LOVE THAT. If you want nice things, you have to either earn them or make them... he gets that and watching how this cabin is taking shape is an amazing testimony to his fortitude, patience, physical dexterity, and ambition, and iq. Nik keep that up man and you can quit any job you have because people are going to subscribe in the hundreds of thousands I guarantee it 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

[@ricoschafer6127]

When is saw, how he was wheezing at the second log, which he was pulling upstairs, I really wanted to give him a hand through my monitor. Good job!

Me too,...poor back =((

[@slowly_radish8374]

I don't know which is more awe-inspiring your brain power or your muscle power. Perhaps it is that so much talent occurs in one man...

[@brendasapp1400]

I need a man like Nik. What a man. What a man.

[@Bishop1987]

After lifting all those trees you are going to be in amazing shape. You've got to be as strong as an ox at this point. It is always an awesome thing to watch you work and overcome the obstacles set in front of you. You always seem to figure out how to complete an almost impossible task. You are an amazing person. I feel privileged that you let us into your life to see you build this amazing property. I hope when the house is finished though that you keep taking us on the journey with you as you go forward with everything that you do to the property. Don't ever give up you will always find a way.

[@Armin_27]

Can´t count the amoutnt of times I just shook my head in sheer disbelief of how he makes incredible things happen with a few tools and quite a bit of muscle. 😲 It´s just incredible and very inspiring! ☺️💪

[@Eeropolvasti]

Yep, he sure is STRONG, much stronger than he actually looks !!=)

[@stevenashton7571]

Sir, you are quite an inspiration. You may not realize all of the lives you must touch with your beautiful videos. You certainly have inspired me to construct my log home. I just turned 60 and plan to be building mine over the course of the next ten years. I have been trying to accumulate tools and knowledge for the past several years. I even bought the same chainsaw that you have (commercial grade Husqvarna). You make hard manual labor look fun. I realize the rewards along each stage of construction. Thank you for sharing your words, video and amazing creations of heavy timber.

[@argentinainfinita]

I think NEVER before in my whole life I haven't seen ANYBODY work as hard as you have done. No words. Amazed. Petrifying. Congratulations .

[@unchained20000000]

Take your time brother, this home will be more extravagant than the Sistine Chapel & a quintillion times more holy. God bless you Nick, you're doing a fantastic job. You will always have content for videos, because you can spend a lifetime with the intricacies of your extravagant mind on your property.

Also, I can not understand what goes on in the minds of some people who have subscribed to your channel only to to give a negative rating in the first 2 minutes. These people are in my eyes in a very deep thought prison and I feel very sorry for them.

That cabin will be standing there forever. You do a great job thats for sure.

[@fonhollohan2908]

As a friend speaks to a friend and as I lay here in a medical bed looking at you lift those logs and abuse your back. Reminds me of myself, that is what I did for a many of years and now look at me. I plead with you sir to build a hoist instead of wearing your discs out. Our bodies can only take so much, when were young we always think it won't happen to me. Well, I was warned as well, but didn't take heed, to the message. btw pretty impressive how you managed to get that pole up there. Quite the feat.

[@leavemealone7076]

Wow, you are impressive...using the block and tackle to lift the logs up and get them in place all by yourself, amazing what one person can do. Stay safe, be careful, take it easy and keep dry.

[@ladygreyowl9127]

I Luv this series.. Nic you are so Amazing with your girlfriend, kids and dog.. It Warms My Heart to See Such Wonderful Family Values..

[@michellelindsay5727]

Nik, absolutely wonderful watching you go back to using math and science the way we should be teaching our children. If everyone learned these basics and taught everything to their families, survival would be as natural as breathing. By the way; as usual, your ingenuity is breathtaking! ❤️🙌

[@frankensteinracing3520]

I’ve been tripping back to this series as I have time. And your workmanship/craftsmanship is second to none. It’s truly a masterpiece and will truly be a magnificent home when completed.

[@stjoes1231]

You are simply amazing Nik moving all these logs all by yourself. I'm glad to see you methodically think everything through and have the ingenuity to get these mongo sized logs to complete the lofts. Stay safe my friend!
