Pine Tongue and Groove - Closing the Gap - Cabin Life

[@jeanettec6212]

Wow! Absolutely stunning work! Your a hard worker it’s paying off! Your home will be so cosy and beautiful!

[@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin]

Thanks Jeanette.

[@maryallen6334]

I love seeing the pine boards get nailed on...tongue and groove in that pine colour is such a clean look.

[@solangesouza6277]

What a amazing skill you have ! Your place it is absolutely beautiful !

[@brendasas8440]

Love it ! Something about wood that just makes a cabin complete !Bravo good job 🙈🙉🙊❗❗

[@jonathantaylor5666]

It's simply amazing you brought in EVERYTHING to build your cabin and furnish it all on your ATV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@utubewatcher60]

Good job Russell it’s really coming along I love it 😊

[@whitetail2627]

Well done Russel the pine is a fine choice....looks like winter is starting to let go of its grip on Raspberry Rock....nice

[@CookingWithRy]

Looking really sharp! I like that pine you chose.

[@timkeagy4094]

I have much respect for a man who is building his dream. I have so many more videos of yours until I catch up, but with everyone I watch, I root for your success. It is easy to see why 39.3k subscribers with more I'm sure as time goes on enjoy your channel as much as they do. Your workmanship is beautiful.

[@AppalachianLife]

I worked with an old native man who was a drywall finisher. He used a platform made from a 8 foot 2x12 and 2 upside down 5 gallon buckets screwed on for legs. It was pretty sturdy and light. He called them his bongos.

[@frankquarters]

Now you tell me ... had I had that 35 years ago I'd not have spent so much on metal benches and stages ... great idea.

[@medtech1a]

Great looking home you’re building, so very different than Shawn James but i love them both.

[@TheBibliofilus]

You could always attach the last piece to the last complete board before putting it up and also cut at an angle against the wall to be able to get it in the grove with minimal gap against the wall..

[@sh4610]

Very nice and neat appearance of wood work done recently.keep it up.

[@donfinley2540]

Place is looking GREAT

[@59chevt]

Russel that came out great. nice vid as well.

[@jeanlavoie371]

I’m impressed..it’s lovely

[@bobstewart4949]

Nice work Russ. Looks great 👍

[@ChrisK-LTC]

That was me that made the platform suggestion (probably not the only one), glad to see it worked out for you.

[@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin]

Thanks Chris, it did work great.

[@michaelcoghlan5521]

Looks awesome Russ. Platform is a great idea.

[@ronthibeau2862]

Cabin is looking good with all the pine you got up

[@FromThePrairies]

The most handy thing to have around is a set of just above the knee sawhorses. Would be perfect for something like a platform. Mine get used to cut sheets of ply, paint furniture, kids table at the Canada Day BBQ, al sorts. In fact, I got rid of the waist high sawhorses last year because I never used them and they were always in the way when I wanted the shorter ones.

[@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin]

Good idea. I should make a couple like Shawn James'.

[@FromThePrairies]

@@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin don't know what his look like but judging from his other stuff, they're probably insanely heavy. Just build them with 2x4's. There are 101 plans on the internet.

[@johnmccormick175]

Great job that pine looks beautiful!

[@johndebolt5853]

Nice job Russ. Looks great.

[@DebbiesHomeplace]

Looks very nice. It's beautiful!

[@thizizliz]

Awesomeness! It's looking good.

[@phillip48ful]

You must be pleased with that, job well done. Superb day.

[@icefishinnhnewhampshire7688]

Damn walls and ceilings are looking awsome it looks more like a compleate dream every day that passes keep up the great work

[@theredrose777]

It looks really nice, Russ.

[@wildrosedude7521]

Looks great Russ must be gratifying to finish off at least one part of the ceiling.

[@wesolds8875]

Really looks good Russell, impressed.

[@suejackson1731]

Nice, congrats on the ceiling it looks really good.

[@cindycurtis9944]

Looking great!!!

[@vicwested]

Here's a funny thing I'm watching you work when I should be doing work at home myself 😆 🤣

[@pumptruckjim]

Looking Good, looking real good, you should be proud of your self.

[@kevinclark3557]

build some sawhorses soon...it will quicken up your woodworking...we slide our last piece in from the end and tap into place to fill the gap in your ceiling and you can still stagger the joints

[@peggypaplauskas161]

Looks so good

[@SandraCrockett]

The wood looks great!

[@moyaking8961]

That looks absolutely brilliant and I bet you're really chuffed with it. Well done 😊

[@gailbrault9251]

It has really turned out nice Russ. Great job although like any cabin the work is really never finished but this was s great winter project.

[@jkbenzley]

Love it Russ!, the cabins coming on so well, keep up the hard work matey it will all be worth wile in the end!!! 👍👍👍

[@sizzlechest1038]

[@Gordonseries385]

[@deanflint2239]

Great work on the interior especially the ceiling----you rate 5 Attaboys !!!!!!

[@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin]

Golly!

[@macsair]

Looking good !! Nice haircut pal.

[@josephineflatt74]

ceiling looking pretty nice Russ.

[@themanonthestreet]

Little late now but; Cut the thin piece to the exact width. Then trim off the top part (lip) of the groove flush. The just press into place a tack.

[@themanonthestreet]

Looks great though!

[@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin]

Yeah I could have done that too.

[@barbarawarner8040]

Great Job !

[@vicwested]

Good one on pine hangers too do ceiling

[@georgettewood8894]

In your wisdom you heard that you needed protection. Good on you Russell . Now we can breathe more easily.✅

[@mzeeraza3516]

Nice work Mr Russell 👍🏾

[@Traceman002]

GOOD JOB!

[@TheTed169]

Awesome job Rus, it looks just like my cabin... : ) TFS!

[@babeksaber2702]

Great job. Thx for the video

[@pattimuscarella6369]

All you need are two ladders! It will be much sturdier and you can change the height if you need to have the ladders facing each other and slide your platform on whatever step is the proper height! Simple! And much safer

[@elizabethkorver9246]

Great job Russel. Think this is your last episode. Will keep watching. Will send our on the grid cabin Mon. Just come in from a great fire.

[@nicolehervieux1704]

Good job!

[@jackpoirier5023]

Ceiling looks great. The trim will make look like a millions bucks, Canadian.

[@boudica26ify]

[@josephineflatt74]

Save the pine scraps for kindling to start you stove

[@sharonkriskovich5911]

Beautiful do it at your own pace guy 😊

[@gtsipejr]

Russell, that looks super! Very bright. Would you mind letting us know what nailer you're using? Or maybe a short video review on your power tools, I see some are DeWalt. Thx. GT

[@FromThePrairies]

By the way, for the disco ball, you can get a remote control outlet. My space heater is plugged into one.

[@andrevaudrin3164]

in a speedy mode you are fantastic ^^

[@jamescarryl9690]

Great job on the ceiling U Bass Ackwards Beaver. LOL !!

[@mikekline877]

get a remote controlled outlet to plug into your outlet for your disco ball:)

[@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin]

Already have!

[@timklassen421]

rasberry rock beautiful spot

[@BillBlyleven]

For the Discoball - Ebay and the Chinese sites (Deal extreme NewFrog) sell Bluetooth controlled 120V remote plugsswitches -

[@Duramax03]

That’s looks Great but...........the Disco Ball........ hmm? Good job!

[@philstraw6840]

“Mind the gap”. I’m in London...the phrase comes to mind.

[@scotduckrow8524]

Disco ball should be set on a automatic timer calibrated to Booxefest hours.

[@gordonv2456]

I'm not sure why you picked pine but I can see it is much more pleasant to look at compared to drywall. That will be more interesting to look at during the long winters. Low maintenance too I would think. It's looking like a home now. Maybe you could mention how much insulation R value you have in the roof in a vid?

[@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin]

Gordon I can't stand drywall. There is R28 in both floor and roof, and R22 in the walls.

[@EllieChristine744]

Pine is nice, but it will be yellow over time. In my cabin I used a lacquer, without color, that had an UV-filter, it made the surface not very shiny, but a little. It has prevented the yellow tinge - in spite of it being many years now, since we put it up.. Just a suggestion - depends on what you like.

[@SonnyGreenwichJr]

Great stuff! World's worst builder here! ☘️👀☘️

[@RedStorm.]

Beautiful

[@jerilandheer9545]

Great video....

[@dantedifilippo9011]

nice job

[@francoisroy465]

nice job ...

[@georgia4117]

CE smart home wifi outlet $34.99 for two at Costco. All you need is wifi in the cabin and you can turn on and off whatever is plugged into it from anywhere even the big city.

[@rogermace4516]

Lookin good mate

[@levyrogers6979]

I hope you are looking into redoing your taped up wiring. I would hate to see all your work go up into smoke. There are some really good books on how to do wiring. The wood looks great.

[@danburch9989]

When installing your cross brace, one end should be connected to the vertical leg (as you did). The other end must be connected to the horizontal section. Makes for a stronger bracing and less wobble. A couple of cross braces is added insurance. One question: How in the world did you come across such a beautiful piece of property. I might get tired of living in such a place - it would take a few hundred years!

[@RaspberryRockOffGridCabin]

Dan, there are many areas like this in Ontario, usually way north. I kept an eye on realtor.ca and kijiji.

[@ultimateaudio8239]

Good video bud, what size nails did you use for tongue and groove and also did you need to leave a gap at the ends?

[@nickmiller96]

I just rewatched your episode 2 videos. Need some good cooking videos again.

[@frasermacdougall7610]

Looks really nice Russ. Nice job! :)

[@frankquarters]

Great ideas ... question: I'm at the plank ceiling stage on my place ... did you struggle with whether to install drywall first for insulation or any code reasons? Is it overkill or worth it I wonder. Keep hammering away.

[@petergovers4527]

Nice house .
