It's so fun that cat thinks you built it a luxury home

[@annar6430]

Cats just like human smells 😅

[@mazaik2]

I love how you guys work together and your humour. The stucco looks great! Ahhhh, poor Tiger....

[@chandrasutton4669]

Isn't it exciting to see how lush and green your property has become!!!😊❤

[@jo-ellenbass2261]

Oh, wow! i love how the ends of the ventilators openings really pop, like shiny decorations. i paused on the completed front with the door up, just so I could get a good look at it. Also, thanks for the mountain views. So beautiful!

[@elizabethtruscott2888]

What an oasis you have created! I saw a short clip of the homestead when you moved onto it. It looks green and lush now compared to just 2-3 years ago. You are making the desert bloom.

[@elizabeththomas8746]

The door looks so good ! Casa de caca is really coming along.. Q: Will the inside be spider free? Can you explain how the restroom works when it's all done, please? And will you have floors? As you are, I'm excited for the final completion and looking at your invision. 😊

[@mendi1957]

Love the door Ashley!👏👏👏 Everything is taking shape ... all the effort, work & energy is manifesting beautifully. Hail to the Casa de Caca! 😎💩🙀

[@offgridwithpojectham]

That looks fantastic guys! Great job! Love watching your family on this journey.

[@trashdog88]

Beautiful work, you both should be so proud of yourselves and your family.

[@biblio_mama]

It looks fantastic! Can’t wait to see the final color. ❤

[@Monkeemama]

😂😂 I was wondering why you were trying to tape things off… 😂 (Great demonstration to prove a point!!) 👍🏻 I really am amazed at the transformation the building takes with the stucco on. You all do such a neat and tidy job with your bags. I’m sure that makes the final steps a lot easier. 😊 You will have to make a Kitty Kondo one of these days (when you run out of things to do) so they can have their own luxury sleeping spot. 😹❤

[@lenellamaxwell6934]

I knew it was going to look amazing, but I truly love the front door with that color. It is going to look even more beautiful with whatever color you plan on the stucco will be. Nice job y'all!

[@debracarmichael119]

Wow! The stucco really finishes the Casa De Caca. Looks great and that door, I just love that door. You have the sweetest animals. Good luck keeping kitty out of the Casa 😂🤣

[@davec9244]

Found myself shaking my head up and down YES that ALL looks so good. Nice job thank you stay safe.

[@lauriecollins5588]

Spar varnish is used on Bars so it holds up well to cleaning/dampness.

[@kittimcconnell2633]

WOW! What a transformation! So glad your kitty cat enjoys it. :D

[@kittimcconnell2633]

If stucco is made with cement? it will eventually degrade any cob that's beneath it. The reason is that cement holds more moisture than cob and can saturate the cob, causing it to slump. Y'all may not have as much of an issue with that in the high desert! But modern cement stucco has destroyed centuries-old cob in England.

[@StoneKathryn]

@@kittimcconnell2633 Good to know! That might be the problem with the Solar Shed because it has a couple cob layers. Have a great day!

[@kosievandenberg2145]

Absolutely fabulous. Even looks like a little hobbit house.

[@deecooper1567]

❤ the front look 👍. Ashley, the door idea fits in beautifully with the construction! Very impressive 🤩👵🏻👩‍🌾❣️

[@Mindmaid1]

I like all the silly quips and rhymes. I also enjoy all of the creative talent that happens with your whole family. I hope to always get the glimpses of the beautiful scenery, plants,and animals. I am familiar with the desert plants of Maricopa and Yavapai county, but didn't recognize the bush/tree with the dark berries.

[@dawnjackson6741]

Would love to see how the chicks are doing in the chicken garden. By the way the door is awesome.

[@chuckwilliams7170]

I love that fact that you will live in a Tatooine/Star Wars style homestead!!!

[@lorrilaque7311]

Love watching this part and witnessing the end creation. Nice job!

[@hayleydwyer1469]

I had to rewind and pause the video multiple times because I could not stop looking at how beautiful the front of the S#!+ Shack looks with the painted door on it. Omgggg. 😍😍😍

[@alysiachristensen5475]

It’s looking fantastic and that door is amazing!!! Great job!!!

[@mary-gy8zp]

I love the way you work good together. So inspirational.

[@gina50gina]

Wow! It's looking amazing!

[@burttb1953]

Wow! The poop palace is looking great. I can hardly wait until you show house-building videos. Will there be an "Occupied" sign or will people just look through the window before entering? Just wondering since it is a one-seater.

[@bondpaz]

I like the bloopers at the end. I can’t wait to have a real bathroom. 😊❤

[@maggieharte1066]

Door looks so cool...beautiful 😍

[@Sunjoy1]

Very nice...is it a quicker process?

[@angeliquerider-mitchell2538]

Ashleigh, As far as the epoxy goes, it will get gummy and not cure if the ratio is a little off on the epoxy to hardener. To get the thick, bar top finish you were looking for, I suggest you use West Systems 2-part epoxy. First off, I'm not affiliated with them in any way. It just what the professionals use and I used on our boats. It's easy, affordable and reliable. Also, the system has several different hardeners to choose from depending on your conditions and how fast you want it to cure. The system has all kinds of options that proves the saying "a moment to learn, a lifetime to master" in a good way. I can totally see you getting into it. It's used to make boats, surf boards, skate boards, carbon fiber bikes, the list goes on but also as a protective coating. Your imagination is the only constraint. Anyway, when the Spar Urethane you went with fails in about six months, consider West Systems. It can be ordered in as small of an amount as a quart up to 55 gallon drums. There's tons of info and educational literature about it online. You can get it off their site or West Marines site. Hope this helps. 🎉

[@dorabort6622]

I have used that polyurethane and it works great! My friend used on her "dresser" bathroom sink, it is beautiful! I love the shine. Good luck and I hope. You like it!

Good morning you guys I hope you guys are doing a good job keep up the good party room but how are people going to sit on the on the box on the potty seem like they kind of low to the ground but the alright you got to look good keep up the good work

Going to miss the red color

[@lorettataylor9902]

Love the door 🎉

[@elizabethrobinette4246]

Curious to know the temperature difference between the inside of Casa Caca and outside?

[@monoshock57]

I like it, hope it doesn't crack.

[@petepetersen8079]

Good stuff!

[@justg1226]

You should call it "the Lavatory" or "the Powder room" Its fancy so it should have a fancy name.

[@juneweldon680]

Is the stucco just cement or a special mixture? Did you finish the chicken garden stucco job? Cute cat, he sleeps a lot. Love the way the door turned out. Great job today. I used polyurethane for my TV stand. I did 10 coats, it looks like a bartop. I just wipe it with a wet cloth. Time for a new snack? Any special flavors for popcorn?

[@TinyShinyHome]

This Stucco is sand, Portland cement, lime and fiberglass

[@juneweldon680]

@@TinyShinyHome oh, thanks. Popcorn ok?

I worked out I watch all your videos I've been thinking about going off grid myself and watching you makes it a lot easier

[@PaulineEvanosky]

It's one thing to see a finished piece of art. However, this is the more beautiful and comprehensive way to dive in with the artists to see the process. The way the minds in collective unison work. The love for each other. Thank you so much for showing us the creativity involved, even when things don't work quite right. A few videos ago, I watched as you created the first toilet seat. My random thought at the time was this is going to be a good way for everybody in the family to get their butts waxed. Turns out I was right. So glad you decided to make another one. I really enjoy watching all of your videos. Thanks.

[@TheHavasu_77]

Spar urethane is awesome! Several coats of that ends up looking like epoxy!! I was gonna recommend that, but forgot. The stucco is looking awesome!! Love you guys and have a wonderful day! ❤ (Also, I’m loving the bloopers at the end of the videos, lol! 😂)

[@suemoore9412]

Love how you can see the back wall bottles in the tiny window. Love watching! ❤

I fully expected Jonathan to walk out of the Casa De Caca and put down the cat like the ending to The Flintstones as Fred puts the cat out for the night... LOL

[@aearthwise]

Its looking fantastic, such a beautiful family of creatives, creating such a stunning natural environment 💖💚💖💛💖💚

[@StoneKathryn]

The stucco looks really good guys! I'm sure hoping it sticks to the bags. Too bad that the stucco has doubled in price! Too bad about the epoxy not working on your first toilet seat. I sure hope the polyurethane does the job you want Ashley! Thanks for this video Longnecker family!

[@colleensnyder8943]

The painted door was always meant to be there - Beautiful!

[@genesnyder2985]

It looks amazing I hope the drying process goes better than on the chicken garden

[@hubertdaugherty8986]

You might see if there is a “Spec Mix” affiliate in your area. They can provide tote sized ‘super sacks’ of mortar. I needed lots of mortar for my SCIP panel home. I was even able to modify the component proportions and add a dash of silica fume. Great business to work with.

[@lindawilson4625]

So sorry to hear the epoxy didn't work out because it looked great. The spar urethane should work just fine. You have absolutely the best looking outdoor potty I have ever seen! And it's cat approved :-)

Yes, there was just so much detail work it was easier to apply by hand.

Why don't you just buy a regular toilet seat Less expense about $20 dollars Easy to put on On top of regular plywood, easy to work on using when it's not used it has its own lid to close down on the seat itself 🚽

A regular toilet seat attaches to the wood.
