THIS DOUBLED OUR LIVING SPACE // WORKING ON THE SHIPPING CONTAINER BARN

[@SkinnyPedalUTV]

Shifting and moving things is always extra work however the reward is always worth it and so satisfying! Well done! Great little seating area! Happy New Year!

[@Benthitchfarm]

@SkinnyPedalUTV Thank you so much! It feels great to finally have some extra space! Happy New Year! 🎉 ~T

Sure wish we could get some of your rain here in the beautiful Texas Hill Country. The flooring is a great addition and makes extra space possible. Happy 2025! 👏👍❤😍🎇

[@Benthitchfarm]

Yeah I wish it would head south as well, so we can start the house lol Thank you and Happy New Year!! 🎊🎆

Yay Uprise Brewing. In the warmer months, you can bring Ryder there on either the patio or dog park across the street. They are a great bunch of people there.

[@Benthitchfarm]

@mamich08 We really enjoy Uprise...great food, beer and atmosphere! It's tradition to go there, and then head over to Umi for sushi 🍣 ☺️ ~T

[@joeyking4946]

Question at the beginning of your video you showed a stream of water, have you thought about putting in a small hydro power plant to help charge the batteries, especially in the wintertime. Just a thought.

[@Benthitchfarm]

Great question! Yes, we definitely have been thinking of ways to help the winter charging issue. We are looking into a wind turbine and a hydro plant. We also want to try and store the water, for the garden this next year up by the greenhouse. Maybe a ram pump with a hydro plant combo?! ~L

Happy New Year from germany and thank you for the video.

[@Deerhavenoffgridhomestead]

How are you heating that area when you are out there? Was so good to hear from you this morning. Happy New Year to the 3 of you!! 🎉

[@Benthitchfarm]

@@Deerhavenoffgridhomestead we are not heating it right now but the barn stays above freezing with the camper in there. Need to pick up a door and then we can set up a little electric heater to keep it above freezing when our temps get super low! 😊

[@Deerhavenoffgridhomestead]

@ we use the little buddy heater that runs on propane when we are starting off from completely cold in the cabin to help take the edge off while we’re waiting for the fire to get going to warm up the cabin. I highly recommend one of those.

[@roberta4989]

No covering on the sub floor with all that rain? I would be concerned about water saturation on the plywood. Maybe consider cheap blue tarps with with raised centers to keep rain flowing off the edges. I know you guys are super creative...poor drowning plywood! ☹☹☹☹☹☹

[@Benthitchfarm]

Not ideal but we went with Advantech subfloor. It has a 500 day no sand guarantee. We definitely don’t need a wet rainy winter but it should be totally fine for the season! 👍

[@roberta4989]

@@Benthitchfarm Glad to hear you got it under control. I kinda figured you considered the rain issue thoroughly. I think I would have still covered it. Kool seeing your progress. Cheers to you, Happy New Year!

"Is he doing OK to your satisfaction?????????????"

[@richardgreen5602]

Why is it that women tend to lift with their back rather than the safest way with one's legs??????

[@Benthitchfarm]

@richardgreen5602 🤣 I knew someone would notice that! I tell Levi the same thing ALL OF THE TIME! 😜
