Finally Moving In! 190sq ft Alaskan-Milled Cabin

[@SurlySOB]

You should hollow out a tree stump to use as a trash can. Make it look like a tree growing up out of the floor instead of a trash can. You can put a lid on it and have it double as an end table.

[@joesinakandid528]

"...an end table." or a movable seat and if a second, rough thick lid were made and stored under the cabin it could be a movable work bench for heavy duty poundin' on.

[@joesinakandid528]

Also - cut nails are usually hammered into a board WITH the taper of the nail and the grain of the wood so that the tapered sides of the nail don't separate the wood grain and make it crack, horizontally (in this case).

[@private15]

Sounds awesome.

[@Donna_Bug]

That's a cool idea 😂

[@ezforsaken]

that's a cool idea!

[@Luke09t]

Make some sleeves for your water buckets out of your left over bubble wrap! That should solve your condensation problem. Cheers!

[@LadyDisaster123]

Idea for the ceiling till you get round to putting the wood up, buy some canvas fabric and pin it up just so your not looking as the insolation for now. Love watching your videos

[@pnowikow]

Kyle's Cabin on KZbin has a video of this exact thing. Turned out great

[@Colorcrayons]

We did that in a rental basement I lived in, once. it make a world of difference and was actually kind of nice. Plus it'll keep the fiberglass fiber from entering your lungs at a drastically reduced rate. My lack of mesothelioma thanks me.

[@marciawelch4130]

Yessssss!!!

[@Knight805]

Great idea!

[@proehm]

Might be interesting with a tin type ceiling.

[@T0DDS]

It's fun to watch Ryan while he nests. 🙂

[@DanielLBuxton2295]

Outstanding ! My Saturday morning entertainment . Keep up the good work .

[@Kaitebursley]

You could do a drop cloth ceiling for now! I've seen another KZbinr use it in their cabin, it looked really nice!

[@heathbecker420]

You should use that reflective bubble wrap foil on the ceiling too. It will reflect radiant heat back inside in the winter and the heat from the roof back out in the summer.

[@tedsell1455]

Working good on my House and Garage

[@dcgulick]

We live off grid and had the same problem with sweaty water buckets. We bought foam interlocking tiles and laid them down. Plus we figure there’s gotta be a little insulation value :).

[@grantleslie1564]

Hi Ryan, great episode. It feels like a bonus video because it was your move in day. I binged watched since discovering your channel 2 days ago .

[@Aussiehomestead1965]

Handy tip to make window screens virtually disappear is to mask off the aluminium surround and lightly spray mesh with black spray can. You will be amazed at the way they simply seem to disappear and the view is so clear.

[@jamesseltenreich652]

I’m watching my mother, but one day I’ll be back out to my cabin, I long for the day, looking great brother

[@dominbgky01]

A couple of things to think about... One.. the sun is way better at making heat that electricity. Have you thought about making a solar heater for supplemental heat when the sun is out? It would save a lot of propane when the sun is out even if it's ridiculously cold. Two.. if you make an insulated tank you could keep the water from freezing with a solar heating panel. During extended dark periods a small heat exchanger and a small fire would give you warm water. Sawdust and with some borax to keep out the bugs is cheap insulation and a way to use something you make every day. Three.. now that the jackery is inside and warm the solar panels can be used year round to save running the generator so much. Just need to run an extra wire through the wall when you run the wire for the generator. Love the channel. You are living close to my dream.

[@troypost4033]

If you look at the back after the mechanism that spins, you will see a triangle piece that drops into the empty money slots. If u remove that, it will spin freely

[@barrydeacon3551]

Worm: Move in day, sort of!!! Be nice to have your ceiling done👍 To be so creative to build whatever you need out of trees! From the first time I saw your first video: you had me hooked! Coming back, week after week to see what the Mestro had built and recorded on video…. Such a talent. 3-d printer: mind boggling👍 Glad to have a heated cabin to sleep in. Insulated and warm! Priceless 👍 B Deacon Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦

[@mpeabody]

So happy for you. You're living the dream and enjoying every minute of it.

[@mississippioutpost2895]

Proud of you Ringworm, been watching you for years. You have really come along way.🎉

[@tammygifford7831]

Congratulations on moving in, you look so happy, job well done

[@CopperTOPDave]

Re: the deer activity - i would LOVE to see more of that if you could capture it. Especially the deer eating the fallen trees!

[@jg51]

"Jigsaw could use a new blade but it's almost a hundred feet away" 😄 Enjoying watching you work. Love what you've done and are doing to the cabin. ☘🕊 jG ABQ,NM USA

[@jeffroderick5783]

Been busy doing Electrician work in Florida...But got to watch YOUR Movie... on my finally....Day Off... Love it RINGMON

[@firedog4689]

Cool to watch it come together. Ive always been a gadgety kind of organizer too, love watching you put your spin on your cabin!

[@bishophowardslayton-ulccle359]

Hey Pastor Mike, I just wanted to say that I love you brother! I hope you’re doing well and God bless you.

[@DeterminedDIYer]

You could build a screened in deck off your cabin. You can sleep on it in summer. A lot of people in the south used to do, and still do that. :) Then you don't have to bother putting your tent up if you don't want to. You could put a clear roof on it so you can still see the sky.

[@davidskipperskip5403]

Excellent, you keep on doing it ,what ever that is ,fun fun fun!!!

[@Krazyhunter]

For the ceiling, take the top row off all your walls, put up your ceiling all the way to the studs, cut your wall boards to meet the ceiling, and reinstall them

[@kimcurtis423]

I love your channel! Im 71 and would love to do this. My wife is 38 and her sister who will live with us is 40. They will be a big help!

[@Timotheousturalyon]

Use totes like the green one you have under the bed now to put the water buckets in or use a cement mixer tray like the black one you used to mix cement in. Even if they sweat the water can be easily dumped out of them without getting the floor wet.

[@dennisbeaver5958]

So cool that you’re finally moving in and finishing off the interior! A great build, and you’re a terrific story teller! Just love your content!

[@gabesluis305]

You should make a water tower at the back of the cabin. You could insulate it well, add some electric heating coils and run it off a passive solar panel so it won’t freeze. Maybe pipe in the air from the peak of the cabin ceiling to help keep it from freezing…

[@anywhy30]

It's moving day! Good going.

[@tdsw3452]

Sweating buckets, make jackets for your buckets from the bubble foil and get cheap boot/shoe tray to set them in. Your channel is awesome!

[@briannelson4122]

I agree with your "cheese like substance" assessment, it's my "go to" with chips as an afternoon /pre- dinner snack.

[@jamestaylor8860]

Ryan, forget about taking things apart just to sand them. How about a hand planer or sander? In one day you could have the place done and without the need to remove everything, well you know the drill better than me. Once time becomes more important to you it will come to you. P.s. finish the ceiling, and then insulate the floor and call it a day.

[@lloydpowell1056]

I can’t find your name so I’ll just call you worm! I am 82, just got my HM130Max set up and try to follow U as much as I can. My IPhone tells me I spend around 4 hours a day watching bandsaw and chainsaw mill work a day. Your work is absolutely awesome! Gorgeous! Thanks Worm for revealing your wood skills.

[@flat6fever680]

Dude is a beast with the hand tools!

[@kentstringer4160]

Propane makes moisture. A. Dwarf stove with all your wood is the most cozy and you won’t be wearing a coat inside. Nice dry sense of humor. 😊

[@livefreelivewild]

Ryan, be careful putting the generator under the cabin because of CO2 poisoning, at least get the floor air tight first.

[@Knight805]

CO poisoning. CO2 is carbon dioxide

[@Grunttamer]

Just put an extension on the exhaust

[@livefreelivewild]

@@Grunttamer that would work if you want to do that.

[@faithrada]

Yes... it is generally recommended one run their generator app. 25 feet from the house. Even running it near a window has killed people. 😢

[@Grunttamer]

@@faithrada 25 feet is incredibly extreme. The cabin isn’t even remotely air tight.

[@bubblehed738]

I just recently switched to the same coffee system you use. I'd been using a French Press, but found that too messy. Love the drip method now, plus the filters are stupid cheap. Congrats on the new cabin.

[@chriscmoor]

Ryan, the solution for under your bed is a remnant piece of vinyl flooring. It's cheap and available at any big box home improvement store. Tack down the edges and give it a spay of WD40. It'll be slicker than greased owl poop.

[@carolsnyder9134]

Just sharing your excitement about moving into the cabin made my day. Love the way it’s all coming together.

[@leonhart2452]

On your 1lb. propane bottles, do you have the 20 lb. tank adapter to fill your 1lb. bottles? Refilling the 1 lb. bottles is much cheaper than buying the bottles. Easy to do a refill with the adapter. Thread the adapter in the tank, thread bottle on adapter, turn the whole thing upside down, open the tank valve. Wait a minute or two to let the bottle fill. You can hear the flow of propane as it fills. After you can't hear it you wait like 30 seconds or so, close the tank valve, unscrew the bottle and repeat till all your bottle full.

[@noyopacific]

Thanks for another episode in the story of Surviving Ringworm Ryan. Stay awesome ! 68.5K

[@urch4ever]

One of those roll up plastic snow sled, duel purpose. It's end of season maybe on sale or stored in back of store for next season.

[@DaddyBooneDon]

Love seeing it all come together

[@jayjohnson3724]

I built pull out shelves/ tables under my countertops. Just mounted drawer slides with oak stair treads, double de[th glued together. They disappear when pushed in, but make great dinning tables. Another one, hit out of the park. Thank you.

[@charleshutchings9355]

Cool to see you moved in, and the stuff you made. Good for you taking a day off to stay inside to enjoy it.

[@DerekDeJong-kp9ll]

I am packing the truck today to move up to our new land. Pickin up a GoPro before heading out. Already have the new land clearing tools, mostly Ryobi. Thx for the inspiration Ryan.

[@shephusted2714]

you should think about adding on another room exact same size for more home/office/shop feel - you have all the framing stuff now, framing is easy - it would not need to be extravagant or anything you just need a little more room is all

[@faithrada]

Congratulations on Move In Day 🎉 It is all quite Splendiforous. That M&M machine is Over the Top. 👏

[@donnavickery9623]

Your next project needs to be building a LARGE screened in porch off the front of your cabin. You could eat out there and cook out there. And lounge out there. If you get hot, you could sleep out there.

[@jons7677]

Thats awesome about the deer, so cool. I haven't watched for awhile, you've been a busy bee.

[@larryflor1696]

Ryan, congrat's on moving in to the new cabin!!! It's been a long time coming. Kick up, relax a bit and enjoy decorating. You should really go find that little couch you've talked about. You could have "Ringworm Story Night with Ryan" reminiscing about the olden days of sleeping in the mud, walking back and forth to the deer castle through knee deep snow uphill both ways, a cold touche when taking showers at 20 degrees. Enjoy!

[@theconsultant8732]

We had an insulated (Noise) generator house at our place. It was about 150 feet from the cottage with an auto switch we could click in the cottage without having to go outside and start up. Good luck dude.

[@domalash]

Great to see you at the desk with it all setup. I was thinking maybe a 2x4 on a 45 degree angle from one wall to the other to support the corner of the desk would make it extra rock solid.

[@susangay4866]

Glad you got moved in. Cabin looks great. More shelves are definitely needed. Loved the Piggy Bank! Stay safe!

[@phyllismccurdy2984]

Love watching you build things from that beautiful raw lumber 🙋🏻🇨🇦

[@TheDrewCharles]

You really need a great large deck in front of the Cabin. Would provide valuable staging area, work area and storage where projects are not quite ready to go but you need to have them At your fingertips. Would be a wonderful place to entertain guests and BBQ. I know you don't read these comments unless someone buys into your patreon but just in case you do think about that it might be helpful to you you could be useful it could be useful

[@MyZaneyLife]

You can use one of those winter boot trays that you put messy boots on right inside the front door. That way if it does leak, you can always take the tray out and dump it.

[@newsnowriversidesgtrock]

I love that Saturday Night Fever move at 12:23! Wow, did not know you had it in you!

[@timcavnah7575]

Ring, the wife and I live in the👍 of Michigan, we love to start our Sat. Morning with you and a hot pot of coffee.

[@sandratweedale2579]

Absolutely love your stuff bud! So happy you have a warm cuddly spot for those winter days. So happy for you. Now for a neighbour to play with ❤. So many upgrades as you get into the hot weather. Love my Saturdays it’s you to look forward to.

[@pennyoliver7799]

Thanks Ryan…another great video….pleased you’re now in the cabin, and making it very comfortable to live in. Love the lamps on the wall.🙂

[@johannwolf1]

Cozy digs to enjoy while the world falls apart!

[@OliverPsypien]

Congratulations! Amazing place. My favorite video of every week. You’re the man.

[@Aussiehomestead1965]

If you are storing junk under the cabin in containers like you said you could make hinged lattice panels from strips of timber and hand made and that would look cool 😎

[@iainexley5155]

use the foil bubble wrap and create jackets for the buckets, that should stop the sweating, loving the wormlife.

[@crazgirl80]

Very nicely done . Ideas will keep flowing the more you spend time in your wonderful cabin . 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@stephaniedeegan853]

Your new home is looking marvelous. One thing though…maybe you should take the time to change your door lock. Wouldn’t want a hungry bear coming in. Stay safe😊

[@polidactDIY]

Love the progress...Glad your back is feeling better, was starting to worry for you :)

[@jessicad83]

Why don't you make a low profile slide out platform for under your bed for the water buckets that you could line in plastic to help you 1. Get them out/ in more easily and 2. Fix your condensation issue.... just a thought 😊

[@michaelkato642]

interesting video.. the place had a purpose...now we see it take shape

[@donnavickery9623]

So glad you have moved into the cabin l! You have so much more room.

The pride in your eyes while showing stuff off is HIGH 5 WORTHY❤️ Thank you for letting us all in... Now I gotta go try me some Almond M&M's👍

[@ruthscott5166]

Nice to see you moved in. Thought about buckets under the bed - can you make a sled that could hold 2 buckets - use a bin lid and some type of cord or something else creative so you can pull them out? Also would lining the outside of your buckets with reflectfix help to keep the condensation down? Enjoy your videos, thank you.

[@tsurdyk]

Cheap baking/cookie sheets.

[@Colorcrayons]

I have never seen an end grain grinder before. No shade. Also, ringworm coins might be a cool little patreon perk to send out. Since you're already gonna make some to enrich your almond M&M addiction.

[@thomasmckay9878]

💡💥 get pulleys and attach to ceiling! Racks for bins up and out of the way😊

[@donnavickery9623]

You can buy 1/4 inch boards at the big box stores that are made to put on bathroom walls. They are wood on one side and a solid white laminate on the other side. They come in 4’x8’ sheets. That would be perfect to put under you bed to sit buckets on. They do not cost all that much.

[@beaverx37]

You can adjust the candy dispenser to dispense more candy. We have one almost identical to that. Pennies work, but will sometimes don't fall all the way through and cause a blockage. But not hard to clear.

[@markholmes1346]

Nice to be moved in the cabin, looks nice and cozy! Congratulations Ryan! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼

[@coach2london]

Idea for extra storage of tubs and such: Build a platform with pulleys on each corner and then raise to the ceiling. Then you will have more open space for walking and peace. Hope this helps. I too live even farther north than you (latitude wise) as I live in NW MN just 20 miles from the Canadian border - love it. Thank you for sharing your building adventures. P.S. Irish Spring Soap savings in tinfoil will keep rodents away.

[@claire_A-T]

I no you never read these comments but... When you take the inside wall down to sand, you could wire your cabin and put electrical outlets in for when you decide to put in solar. And you know you will eventually put in solar. That's just the natural progression of life.

[@robertbailey2342]

Use a boot tray for your buckets! Loving the cabin!! I live on the coast of Maine an also off grid and love it! I relate to your everyday probem solutions 😂

[@RichardMusgrave-eo9jh]

Love the Content and the comments, you will need a soot catcher for your oil lamp, so it does not stain your woodwork. I would make a slug that does not fall into the gumball machine, or modify the mechanism.

[@catgynt9148]

What if you were to add a layer of the silver bubble wrap to the ceiling to brighten the room, add a bit more insulation and finish the ceiling after the summer projects wane. If your roof is sunny, Todd the solar panels up there to trickle charge Jackery. Great new food warmer. Cheers

[@b3877896]

Another fantastic VLOG! Thanks for posting!

[@drbosb]

I really like the idea of 'Ringworm' Coins! -you could sell them and then people could buy your merch with them lol!!!!

[@leedavis5306]

Use a tote lid to put 2 buckets on. It will slide and enough lip to catch anything

[@angelmayconnolly375]

Very nice cabin what a peaceful life .

[@Baasicstuff]

The insulation will sweat in the summer, you need air between the ceiling and insulation, just like a house but smaller

[@TimTimTomTom]

Either big plastic plant pot saucers, or a plastic boot mat with raised edges to keep water in... for the buckets.
