OFF GRID LOG CABIN: Inside Is Getting Setup

[@deeanna5814]

I was going back to watch the beginning of your journey and realized this is the first vid of yours I watched. Been subscribed ever since and four years later, I still look forward to watching your journey. Thanks for sharing.

[@tomgrantham9992]

It is sooooo nice to see you two young people make this CABIN. My dad built one in 1923 and another when I was born in 1946. I had great times in it. It was on one of three small islands. We fished there on Nickel Lake, Nova Scotia , Canada, having the sounds of loons lulling us to sleep. So, I can relate to you guys enjoying the peace and serenity of your cabin in the WOODS. I am very happy for you two . And your sharing of the simple pleasures and living in nature is what is all about. Thank you. 👏👏👏👏

[@AdventureEric33]

found ya this morning and watched that smaller workshop cabin getting built, now im watching and liking from the beginning of your channel. cool to watch how this began

[@cynthiagonzales9131]

Sierra is lucky to find a man like you! Your patient and always carrying. Love the dog. So Happy!!

[@KYLESCABIN]

Thank you that's really nice of you. Skeeter is in dog heaven!

[@Priscilla721000]

So cozy with the snow falling out the window! I could live like that soooo easy!

[@paularothman749]

Definitely show chopping wood. I love watching this especially if there is no background music and talking. Just keep the sounds of chopping wood and nature. It is relaxing.

[@TwoSistershorsingaround]

That is so cute and looks cozy ,and who needs a tv with that view out the window. So beautiful

[@elizabethguy]

I look forward to seeing you tear down that old building. You said in one of your earlier videos that it was an eyesore, and I agree. Especially now, with that pretty new cabin standing beside it. 😁

[@woodspirit98]

I've been thinking about what kind of kitchen cabinets to get in my cabin and here I am 62 yrs old and I've built furniture and cabinets from milling my own trees and it never occurred to me to pick up somber and just DIY until I saw this video. Sometimes we are so busy looking at the big picture we miss the small important things.

[@IVIITCH0]

Keep at it. You are doing great. I’ve built a few log cabins through the years. You learn as you go. The second one is better than the first and so on. Learn through experience. Carry on. Enjoy.

[@KYLESCABIN]

This is my second one. Definitely turned out better than the first! I'm getting better.

[@tonyj8947]

Good for you for be totally independent unlike tons of people your age. You need a plow so you could drive to/from your cabin anytime. Even though your off grid you want to make things as easy as possible. Prepare, prepare, prepare.

[@jasonsanderford436]

I just started an off grid cabin. It'll also be our 128 sq ft tiny home. We're in Colorado. It'll get us out of a tent, we're excited. I really enjoy the content on your channel. I got some editing pointers from ya as well. Keep it up y'all! Thanks for sharing

[@mgp17316]

Nice, what a great place to get away when you want. It also sounds like it not too far from your home base. Perfect getaway. Our place is 3.5 hours away in good weather. Having it closer like yours is much better.

[@Nikki-ot7un]

Wow your progress is amazing. Firewood firewood firewood = existing. Well done to you 2 and Skeeter. Can't wait for more . Cheers from Christchurch New Zealand :) :)

[@KYLESCABIN]

Thank you! cheers!

[@mem7048]

I would utilize the old cabin as not only wood storage, but, also as an indoor shower point.

[@KYLESCABIN]

I have thought about it. I am actually adding a small room of the back very soon that will have an indoor composting toilet and a shower. I'll have a video of that pretty soon!

[@KYLESCABIN]

The temps are a little cold right now to start that project though. I'll probably start it wednesday when it warms up to above 0

[@s.leemccauley7302]

I admire your spunk young man. Please stock up on food and necessities for this coming winter. I think shortages will be the rule more than the exception.

[@sueyates3555]

Your cabin turn out to be really nice. Your hard work has paidef off.

[@twhalen5516]

Coolest Dog Award!

[@johncoffield3782]

Your dog cracks me up. Looking forward to more videos.

[@georgedeedsnotwords2162]

Looking good my friends ! Keep up the good work , your building more than a cabin ... its your dream . Its my dream also . Heaven is in the woods not the sky . I could move to something like that as soon as my youngest is out of school . My kids are the only thing holding me back now . I'm ready for a slower/simpler life out of the hustle and bustle . "Deeds not words"

[@cindyglass5827]

Seeing as we're recent subs, it's so nice to go back & see some earlier footage : ) Nice Kitchen & I love how you put such a big window behind the sink/counter, so lovely & bright !! : ) You & Sierra also have a 'Great eye' for {interior} design, even Sweet SKEETER looks Fabulous sitting on the Futon (6:05-6:10) all colored co-ordinated w/ the Buffalo Plaid theme etc Happy for you both, you've done a Super Job !! : )

[@trudidolder6122]

your cabin looks nice. One thing I would not like is, that the stove is right against the wall. Some space on the left would be a must for me. But, other then that, I think it should be great to live in such a cozy space.

[@paulbetka2966]

Looking forward to seeing the progress .. American dream 🙏👍🇺🇸 Good luck 🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@KYLESCABIN]

Thanks Paul I appreciate it

[@jimsteele7108]

Coming together nicely. I love it up there, spent many a night on the SHT.

Hi from Quebec. Great cabin, you work hard and well. Suscribed :)

I'd sure love to know what thoughts are in that puppies head LOL. So cute and wild!! But trying to listen :) Catching up on videos, thanks for them!

[@Live-Life-Freely]

-If you replace the rope on your sled for a thicker one it'll be less strain on your hands. -Get a 2nd smaller sled so Sara can help out and you won't have to make more trips. -Place a magnet on the door so have something to hold the latch. This will prevent you from grazing that latch, which I'm sure has happened more than once. -Since you have the propane tank inside, when you're just about done with cooking flip it off at the tank, let that little bit of gas born off then turn off the stove. I've been doing this for years and it really saves you on gas, especially since your hiking it in.

[@HayWoodsandWetlands]

Yeah bud. Place is lookin' great. Looking forward to the journey. Subscribed.

[@KYLESCABIN]

Thanks I appreciate it. Checking out your channel right now.

[@arcaniprea735]

Just found your channel and subscribed. The place looks cool and look forward watching your progress! Will catch up watching your past videos also. I watch several other channels that have cabin builds and now adding you to my list. Keep going looking great!

Thank you I appreciate it

[@wagnerrodrigues9029]

Adoro este tipo de vida , meu país o Brasil não existe este clima tão frio , deve ser lindo ver a neve cair e você está dentro de uma cabana de tora . Adorei tudo .

Found you through Stivers Homestead.. beautiful cabin!

[@KYLESCABIN]

Thank you!

[@billjensen1925]

Great channel - really impressed with how hard you work and what you're creating. The only downside is that you're a Vikings' fan. Boooo. Cheers from Wisconsin. :)

[@bushrat164]

great cabin, just a suggestion ,put the propane tank outside for more cupboard space and for safety. if the hose ever blew or you hhad a leak with the woodstove going you have a ticking time bomb

[@jedidiah5131]

So many people keep their propane tanks inside but make a big deal about venting their solar batteries outside, the irony!

[@38below39]

You have a nice piece of property and I youv;e done a nice job on your cabin

[@davemi00]

Smart getting the tire chains, They have Emergency Tire Chain Sets online.

Awesome cabin!

[@dianajones7999]

[@appellantspark7773]

Hi like what your doing, Good Times! Is there any oak in the woodland? It will burn longer and hotter. A good sized wood burner 11kw loaded with oak will burn through the night and you can get a nights sleep. Oh you need to sharpen or re-new your chain.

New watcher here, looking forward to checking out older vids. Get ya a body vest with a rope and pull your sledge that way, save them shoulders. Use one of those free safety harnesses that come with all hunting tree stands. Good work so far

[@KYLESCABIN]

Thanks for the tip! I'm definitely going to try that

[@davenelson2901]

yea i know ..wasnt thinking...thanks for getting back ...

[@NB88]

Going to keep the old place around for storage this winter? Probably be ok for that I guess. Maybe tear it down next year or keep it?

[@KYLESCABIN]

yes I'm in the process of tearing the tongue and groove off the walls (I'm saving what i can) and just going to use it as a wood shed and cold storage this year. After that I'm going to tear it down and build a log wood shed in the spring.

[@kevimc]

nice cabin, where's the trail to the lake, thumbs up I enjoy your videos

[@stevemccoy8138]

Nice cabin.

Thank you! We are living the dream.

I was gonna ask if you had a snow machine or four wheeler. It would make things a bit easier. Looks like you got a good offer for one.

Hi great video I Have 4 100w solar panels and 8- 245amph batteries it powers my whole cabin here in Talkteena Alaska in the summer I can't use all power the panel's charge up to 3am but in the winter its dark all the time so I use a chevy 100amp one wire car alternator to charge batteries a rc motor from a hobby store hook up to batteries bank and charge the battery bank

[@merellemain5835]

Your cabin is great! Reminds me of Shawn James from Canada, youtube "My self Reliance". He has a lot of great ideas, hard work, and advise. I have watched his channel for at least a year or so. I envy and admire you young man.

[@sgrvtl7183]

I watch Shawn James as well. Excellent channels

[@sweetteame6814]

Just a question Why did you not pit cabin closer or connect to shed?

[@jeffhackerott3856]

I hope I'm not being inappropriate but I'm curious as I want to do this. What did you have to pay for the 40 acres of land? Thank you, and you have a cabin to be proud of.

[@jimsteele7108]

Your best bet is to search land for sale on Google.

[@wildhurstmanor]

From $500 to $10,000 or more per acre depending on location.

Get a pathway you can walk on. Clear one.. NOW. side-by-side vehicle 👍😲..

looks pretty similar to the front of shawn james cabin before he added the porch. did he inspire you? i would want to build one just the same as well.

[@KYLESCABIN]

Dick Preonneke inspired me. I've just always been interested in the lifestyle. I have seen Shawn James channel he is incredibly talented. Doing this stuff with just hand tools takes a ton of skill and patience.

@@KYLESCABIN Hi Kyle, I used to live close to Dick and would visit with him now and then. I lived on Lake Clark. I have lived in Alaska all my life, 72 years and will be here til I make the big trip to visit Dick again. Good to see a young couple enjoying the lifestyle.

[@dermody2]

Good work! I live not too far from you in Kelsey, MN where I built my own off the grid cabin. Are you near Ely? All the best to you, and good luck this winter!

[@jimsteele7108]

Hey Ryan, do you have a well? What are you using for solar? I'm off grid near Mora.

[@dermody2]

Yes, we do. Tried my hand at pounding a sand point, but to no avail. This past summer we had our buddy come out with a rig and drilled down 64 feet with good, pure water. Before that, hauled water since 2012 when we moved out here. Our solar unit is outback inverter, 1000 watts of panels and a kilowatt of lead battery storage. If ya ever want to talk shop, hit me up! My buddy, Tom Strom, up in Ely is an alternative energy guru who helped install my solar stuff. He lives on Will Steger’s stead. .

[@jimsteele7108]

@@dermody2 , that's awesome! I'm pretty low key. I pack in water but I'm planning for rain catchment. I use a sawdust toilet. I have 100 watts of solar. A 12 volt fridge will make ice and 2 - 12 volt UPS batteries store power. Lights are 12 volt LED. Tiny cabin is 8x16 but it suits me fine. Oh... mini wood stove is mandatory as far as I'm concerned. I have about $18k in the cabin and 7 acres, I love that part.

[@dermody2]

That’s simply awesome man! I admire the heck out of what you’re doing and will follow your journey here! Heating with wood is the best, especially when its free if you can cut and chop yourself.

[@jimsteele7108]

@@dermody2 , I've been kicking around the idea of a solar heater to supplement during the sunny winter days. They are a cheap build with lots of youtube info available. A guy can really be frugal if he's patient. I'm constantly searching Craigslist for a deal. I love doing morning breakfast and coffee on the wood stove and on occasions, I'll put a cast iron meal right inside the firebox. There's just something so cool about being in that cozy little cabin when -20 outside, I just love it.
