[@richardthomas1743]

Good morning everybody and thumbs UP to The Outsider !

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Good morning! 😁👋

[@thomasprendergast6315]

Now that is some serious trim work. With homeowner tools. I am very impressed. As a tradesman, I have tools. Too many tools. It's nice to see you achieve such accuracy and style with much less than I would wish to use. Kudos

[@joelhill4107]

Good choice going with a Honda. They wrote the book on ATV's. Cabin is looking like a work of art! Can't wait to see it finished.

[@davidjenkins1958]

I literally just checked yesterday to see if there was a new episode I may have missed, thinking yesterday was Saturday. I hope the Mrs is doing well.

[@andyrobinson339]

Your videos come without warning, and are a nugget of happiness in my day when they appear. The only problem with this video is that it ended!

[@bishopcorva]

CAD pattern making. Cardboard Aided Design. Many uses for idea creation, and when done with them you can lay them on the ground and plant things by punching holes through the sheets. Burn them in a fire, or use them for temporary draft stopping.

[@AprilRaine60]

Praying for the Mrs. God bless everyone in your family. I'm so glad you're back making videos. You are the highlight of my Saturday mornings. I grew up in Kenora Ontario for 8 years. I'm an American and have two sisters living in New Lowell and Barrie ONT> They have become Canadian citizens a long, long time ago.

You and your dad work se well together. I just love watching your videos. Thank you for sharing this with us all!

[@allanlindskoog]

It must be so gratifying to see all of the progress on the cabin. Just watching those few clips of the process makes me so proud of the work you have done. It's been so enjoyable to be on this journey with you.

[@senioroutsider2975]

Hi Al, It is the same from our perspective, Cheers

[@westend3019]

For $2000 CAD, you stole that Massey. Around here, it would be at least double for a tractor that size, WFE, and live hydro. Congrats! The Honda is a good choice for utility use. With your snow cat, you now have all the bases covered.

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

You're right about that! Old tractors were a lot cheaper and more abundant a couple years ago (before the pandemic hit). If I were to sell my MF35 now, I wouldn't be surprised if it fetched $5k in my area. Especially since I installed a hydrauluc remote kit in mine.

[@just-passin-thru]

Great to see you again brother! Blessings to you n your family today.

[@mastuve]

I just realized I have been subbed to you and watching you build this cabin for just over 7 years.... Time flies And the cabin is turning out better than I had ever thought back then... Great work and I look forward to seeing it through :)

Honda has made real solid machines for a long time Been running a couple of mid 90's 300 fourtrax since new to present day.

[@TheOutsiderCabin]

Yup, I call Honda ATVs heirloom machines, since they often last long enough to be passed onto the next generation.

[@lowellfunk8974]

@@TheOutsiderCabin To many people Honda may be the best,longest lasting machine. After 30 years as a journeyman atv/motorcycle mechanic I can tell you that they require just as much maintenance as any other machine out there. You still need to maintain it no matter what brand it is! 🙂

[@TheFlatlander440]

In 2015 when I purchased my meager 20 acre homestead in Vermont I needed a small but useful tool to traverse my property. I chose a 2016 Honda 420 Rancher as I didn't have enough money to go one step higher to a Honda Rubicon. My Honda Rancher fit the bill perfectly to haul firewood, small timber, lumber and snow plowing. It too is 4 wheel drive with a manual 5 speed and reverse, shaft driven and a SRA in lieu of the IRS for more traction but less ground clearance. I use it daily and am now looking for a compact tractor to augment capabilities and for more torque for larger and heavier tasks. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!

Good choice on the Honda Rubicon. I have a 2018 Rubicon, love it. Even in the coldest of weather, as long as it was covered, it would start. Rides awsome and can pull a good size tree trunk or deer through the woods without effort.

[@michaelsherwin4964]

A fellow Canadian, Cecil Skinner on KZbin took a smallish trailer and welded up a small crane with a winch. He uses his ATV to take out logs on that trailer almost every day, now that he is building a barn. If you have access to a welder, that may be a way to get your logs out of tight places, and supplement the tractor. The cabin is really coming together. I hope it is completely ready for the winter. Good luck.

[@BrLambert]

I guessed you would need both. Your cabin is remarkable, it looks like strength to me and solid.

[@Crewsy]

@10:26 The geared transmission over the hydraulic automatic was my choice when I got the ATV for my Dad since its primary use was to haul firewood out of the bush. Belt drive wasn’t even a consideration. The push button gear shift makes gear selection a lot easier and since then Honda has added electric power steering which makes a huge difference. I got to play around on one of the first Honda’s equipped with EPS at work and at first I tended to oversteer but quickly got used to it.

[@superdupergrover9857]

I am a big supporter of a pull start. I work at an auto parts store, I couldn't tell you how many times people have been left in a bind for want of a starter or battery. Being able to go without either at the expense of some inconvenience will be very helpful in the bush.

Oh yes the Tractor and Atv conundrum. I have both as well, but for my hilly New Hampshire land the ATV is the tool of choice for hauling trailers full of firewood or log arch. The tractor is much more tippy in my situation so I am much more cautious . If I need to lift a load I tend to use a snatch block high on a tree and pull with ATV . I believe most ATV’s are the same, mine is a 2006 Polaris 800 sportsman , bought used $6,000. I enjoy watching your cabin build!
