Seriously, I have nothing but praise and admiration for the two of you. ❤ That is a LOT of work you've already got done, and you know there's still a tonne more to do and you're just focussing and getting it done. It's what is called a "hard slog" here, and you're both nailing it. Be proud. And wow! I keep saying it, but that is going to be such a great asset when done! Will be making your life and work easier in the long run. Finally - yay for first cook out there! May there be many, many more amazing meals created in that quanset. ❤

What I love about this, is that you 2 went from doing concrete on a really small slab for your old house stove, and then moved up slowly, but didn't let the "size" or "complexity" of the situation deter you. Here you are, constructing what is essentially the Empire State Building for the "homestead". Good job. There was a point there where I would have said, "I give up", but you pushed forward. Amazing.

There's an old saying that I'd rather be lucky then skilled. You guys are both,it takes a lot of thinking outside the box to be able to construct a building of this size. I've got to be honest on the first two frames I just knew it was going to end in a disaster and I was praying you guys wouldn't get hurt when it all came down. You definitely proved this old man wrong. As a fellow Oregonian I can say you are doing us proud with your full speed ahead man the torpedoes additude. God bless ,stay safe and good luck with finishing the build before the bad weather shows up.

40 yrs ago 3 of us built a Quonset Hut. We had no idea what we were doing. You are correct the 1st section is the hardest. If I remember, we build the arch on the ground and took a rope and pulled the arch up to top center. We did tighten the bolt so it would stand on it own. With only two people, you are doing a great job. You work so well together. The one we build 40+ years ago is still up and looking good.

EPIC, TRULY E P I C !!!! I thought the two concrete pours were hard going, but this one tops them, hands down. That tractor is more than earning it's keep.... It will be so satisfying seeing the arches taking shape. Good design, the way that all the sections are able to be handled individually. Tip for tightening the nuts/bolts. Use a coloured paint marker, and when you tighten a nut/bolt, "dot" the nut with it. That way you know each bolt has been tightened. The salmon & sweet potato fries was a well-deserved meal after a hard day, what a colour, looked great. Epic, truly epic.....!

Hi folks, I've been watching you since you started in Alaska, almost. My wife and I admire your brave new world, experiencing new things and always willing to try more. As a veteran gas station and automotive dealer, construction worker, please hear this. That concrete pour you did was the bravest thing I've ever seen anyone attempt (from tv). It was a very large span and thick, now that its down let it sit for a couple of weeks and stay away from it. It may be hard and strong enough to drive on with out the appearance of damage, but hairline cracks will happen underneath it and will reveal themselves within two or three years. I feel terrible I didn't tell you this after your pour I watched. When we poured concrete in Minnesota we couldn't guarantee our work if a car drove on it with in 7 days specially larger vehicles. Stay off of it and cut your expansion lines firs so if it cracks it will crack short lines. Love you guys and seriously hope I'm wrong. I wonder if you can hear me when you ice fish.

Nice and warm. The slab turned out great considering how much concrete it was. Work safe. In the old days we had double headed nails, 16's and 20's to form with. Had to pull everyone by hand. Yeap, I like those screws. A tip for the nnext slab or pour, put a dab of grease in the screw heads where they might get mix in them. You need sky hooks. Come in handy. Wish I had a set. A frind and I put one of those together for an airplane hanger. No air or electric tools. All hand ratchet and wrenches. No lift, ladders and some scaffolding. Great job especially for two people. Once you learn a system it gets much easier and stable. Good looking meal. Jeanie with a view. Build up a tower to watch the sunset. Take care, wet a line.

Is there anything you two can't do?! Impressive teamwork and resourcefulness. That tractor continues to impress me. I can't wait to see this project completed. Greetings from southern Arizona 🏜

My gosh that was a thrill putting the Genie on the slab...what an amazing tactor that is. All the things it has done! Well worth that drive to get it. When you were saying how many bolts in the buckets I was thinking oh my gosh what a heck of a lot and knowing you have to tighten them all... I can't imagine. Patience you both do have. And what else could be better than having your dinner up in the air on the Genie. I bet the rental company would get a huge hoot out of that to :) hugs

I've held my breath several times and with Ariel saying the rough stuff is over and it's smooth sailing ahead I can relax.😊 There weren't that many fancy tools back in the day so I'm really getting a kick out of the work you two are tackling !

Looks like y’all used every piece of equipment you have on the homestead but you got it done as usual. Nice job. Y’all are amazing.

Excited to see this one! I had watched last year's mushroom and berry foraging and was hoping you would do that at the new property, so I was pleased to see the mushroom!The chickens look great, and the chicks are growing up, your pets look happy. The quonset hut was so tall that I was getting nervous watching the stacked items😂You guys rock, I had no doubt you could get this put up! Can't wait to see the 2nd segment❤

My heart was in my mouth all the time you were assembling the Quonset hut. I am a retired professional fabricator. I have built large structures. I always had cranes and other lifting equipment around me. Well done.
