Have you ever dreamed of building a cozy cabin in the middle of nowhere? Stop dreaming and get building! Well, watch this first, THEN get building!
I built this beautiful off grid Spur Cabin 100% solo, over the course of 11 months. If I can do it, I'm confident you can, too. It's a 12 x 16 cabin with a loft, tucked away in the mountains near Red Moose Ranch, where we will eventually build our permanent residence.
This timelapse video boils the cabin build down to about 57 minutes. From digging the first hole for the foundation footings, to the final brush stroke of stain on the porch, you'll enjoy a minute or two of every step. I don't use any super-complicated or expensive tools, just the basics. And many materials that I use are leftover, repurposed, reclaimed, or recycled.
Is this a "How-to" video? Not from my view. I mostly want to inspire you to dream big, then do big. I won't claim that what I do or what I use is the absolute best, but what I do works great for me. Hopefully you'll agree that the result speaks for itself. Let me know!
As a bonus, this video offers the perfect amount of stunning mountain scenery and cool, relaxing music. Not only will you want to sit back and enjoy every minute, don't be surprised if you're inspired enough to start planning a project of your own.
Because this video is abbreviated and fast-paced, you may have a ton of questions. That's good! Feel free to ask, or simply keep an eye out for a deep dive build video that is in the works, where I'll add commentary as to the "hows and whys" of building the Spur Cabin.
Question: What is YOUR favorite part of this cabin build?
