It’s great! My shed has been completed and it turned out nice looking and sturdy and it is way better than the sheds that many of my neighbors had put up. Of course, I'm pleased with the outcome and this Ryan’s kzbin.infoUgkxGZedDTcDfgD7fG_uU4esfx_EgxzlY2_1 Plans was extremely useful to me as a guide.

It was nice of them to label the log "log" so there wasn't any confusion lol!

They lied when they labelled the bent one - that would've come back if I'd sent it as a log back when I was running a forestry contracting business.

Hello Kris&Dot! A few weeks ago your greenhouse video hit my suggestions as I had watched a few Timber Frame projects by others recently. Looking at your channel page I found the first few barn episodes, watched them and then got Intrigued by your shop building. I binge watched the whole 79 episodes over a week or so, what a fantastic building! I haven't watched ALL your videos yet but will savor them in the coming weeks. I have the time to do so as I am battling terminal leukemia with it's attendant fatigue. I am a woodworker and electronics engineer forced to retire early, my interest in cool projects on channels such as yours keep me engaged and entertained. So you are doing me a great service by producing the documentaries of your life. Thanks from Portland, Or. USA!

[@chrisberry9017]

You are in for a treat! This young couple’s lifestyle is utterly fascinating,and completely engaging!

Kris has designed a hydroelectric plant to help power his homestead and also built a windmill to generate more 💪. He built his own saw mill and a pile driver to put up fence posts. He is a very talented person! And he has Dot in his corner. Need I say more? Nope! All of his Playlist will help you through troubled times. 🫖📚🐈‍⬛🔭🕊🥧🐑🎩

The water wheel videos were the first ones I watched. Now I've gone back and am watching the rest of your videos.

Loving the inclusion of the milling videos as part of the overall process. Hats off to Dot for the excellent camera work too

[@chimpongo]

Gosh I find these milling videos relaxing! Good non-complicated logic applied to the process, very nice and varied camera angles from the redoubtable Dot, and always a positive outcome helping towards the overall project goal! Great job!

[@alexandrevaliquette1941]

What I like about your video is you don't just show us when all is going perfectly. You show us the side story, the adjustments, the required maintenance to make this a wonderful place to live! Love from Montréal One day, I will also live the dream!

Thank goodness for the spray painted description on the end of that long round wooden thing! I now know it's a 'log!9😂

[@jasonhildebrand1574]

I think what a lot of people might be forgetting is that he literally made that saw mill himself, using electricity from his renewable energy sources, which he all built himself. Bravo Chris !

[@jakobrebeki]

Well done Kris for picking thru them logs and getting the best you can out of it. This project is very challenging and you and Dot are both doing a great job....

It was great to see "LOG" written there. Took all the doubt away :o)

Thanks Kris. It is remarkable how much I look forward to your project videos. My favorite KZbin channel. -Also, my mother’s name was Dorothy.

[@louiswrede4177]

Very good. Also very nice to see Dorothy. ❤😀

[@DickEvans09]

Being a smallholder myself I have to admire your drive and determination in pushing on through adversity. I’m astounded that you’re attempting a barn build of such large proportion, but know only to well that you’ll fill it quicker than you build it ! Keep up with the fantastic work, I have a hundred and one questions but I’ll contact you later when the barn is up, think you’ve got enough on at the moment. You have inspired me to build my own barn, many thanks for sharing your ideas and work.

[@ephronx]

Ah Kris. The amazing thing is - even though I have seen you milling lots of logs over the last few months, it's the first time tonight that I realised that the first of your videos I ever watched was building that mill. It's still an amazing machine - built with love - and it still does an amazing job.

[@cadalot58]

OMG I didn't realise that Kris had actually built that Mill!!! I should have known better now I'm going to have to go back and find the videos where he did that.

[@veronicabalfourpaul2288]

[@ktulu193]

Every video you put out is a gem in itself. Not repetitive at all! Question Kris: you are still receiving patreon donations? I don't expect perks in return or anything but your patreon page looks a bit quiet, hence why I ask. Just making sure you get access to funds to see this barn through (and more!). Thanks for being an inspiration and all the effort you put into showing us your work

Thank you Dot for filming! I love watching the milling being done.

Great video Kris and Dot. Always look forward to seeing what is going on at your place. Nice seeing the sunshine and not the rain. I never realized how much goes into timber framing and you record it very well. Thank you!

[@chuxmix65]

I thought the bucket was crap when I first saw it. At the beginning of today's video I noticed that the area under your sawmill is astonishingly clean. After your comments at the end I am now Team Bucket. LOL!

[@MarkJones-df1fo]

I always enjoy watching your channel, you and your lady have truely created a wonderful lifestyle, your lifestyle shows me a glimpse of a dream world I would love to build myself. Life can surely be hard sometimes and I do understand your frustration at times when things don't go as planned, but you always keep your head up and that path comes to you. Well done and thankyou once again as your channel takes me away to dream land. Always wishing you and your lady the best this world has to offer. M

[@WoodenWonders99]

I've seen so much people here commenting on Dorothy. She is much more of attraction than you new barn . I've learn a lot with your videos, Thank u so much

[@Noble909]

It's good to see they marked it 'LOG' to avoid confusion

[@M5005-x4f]

Your bucket, on your saw mill you built yourself, milling your wood, to build your barn, you are building yourself. If the bucket does what you want then all is fine😊

[@tomheaney4813]

Haha...every time you do some milling, I'm thinking "Kris...the bucket...sort the bucket out". But like you said, one bucket full per cut, so it's actually perfect for the job. Project progressing nicely. Another month and your barn will start coming to life. Really looking forward to the build. Great work as always, Kris.

[@wendyweaver8749]

Really informative video! Kris, you have mentioned before - and briefly shown - log defects but this is the first time you have explained in detail and shown how the defects ARE defects and what the effect the defects have on milling structural lumber. Sap pockets; ring shake; heart shake - just some of what you taught viewers about today. Totally fascinating, even though I have seen every video during which you are milling. One of my favorite parts of any video is when you give viewers your pleased-with-your-work smile. That smile was on full display as you showed the beginnings of the water wheel project. So glad the project is doing well enough to earn the pleased smile.

[@ronaldmartin7892]

'All these things are meant to try us,' as they say. You handle it well. Kris.

Something about cutting Round logs into square timbers is satisfying. Awesome job you two.

[@KarlBunker]

11:28: Did someone think there was some question about whether or not that was a log? 🤣 Nice to see some glimpses of Dot; judging from how she was throwing those timbers around, she's doing well! Great video, as always!

[@MsJWheels]

[@alloriginalpirates]

This video, more than any other for some reason, really made it hit home how much you do and have to do. So much wood processing and so much involved in maintaining the equipment and overcoming hurdles. Phew.

And having control over how the logs are cut and stored is such a great advantage!

yet another awesome vid Kris , honestly i don't know how you do it ! your like a one man army of workers . i once helped a guy i know make a pole barn / lean too, 14 ft x36 ft . 12ft high . the one thing that strikes me is how godam heavy timber is . Me personaly remember every muscle hurting after a days work yet you do this all the time , [ whats your secret Kris :) ]

[@brianwillerton8659]

The bucket was a thought, but nothing I'd comment on, but really, this whole process of yours has been a real entertaining education! Thoroughly enjoyable! I hope you have a good Health and Life Insurance policy on you, so when you wear yourself down to nothing, Dot is taken care of, you are damn lucky to have her!

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

👍👌👏 Yes, Sir! I totally agree that the sawdust bucket works well! And not only that! In fact you seem to be the only bandsaw sawyer on utube caring about collecting the saw dust. All the others have piles beside and under the sawmills. It sometimes even distracts the rail system. And if the sawdust gets wet, it does rot fast and becomes quite slippery. 2) I would so much like to see someone making wood briquettes and/or wood pellets out of all the sawdust. Those products sell very well although they have become quite expensive. And if not produced for selling, one can use the pellets/briquettes for heating purposes himself. There are a lot of pellet pressing devices shown on utube. My favourite are the ones that make ~ 7cm diameter pellets (shaped like little cakes). I bet that you are able to build such a press (because of your ingeniouity and your machine park). Best regards, luck and especially health to all of you (including the cute cat of course).

[@esthermae8710]

Composting toilets make great use of the stuff as well.

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

Dear @@esthermae8710 👍👌👏 Yes, you are right of course. But look at the big pile he already has. I know that they use it for the chicken coop floor as litter. Sawdust can also be put in the compost etc.p.p.. But all this is not so interesting than making pellets. 😁 :-) 2) Maybe Mr. Harbour will have a sawdust storage box at or in the new barn? It must be kept dry or it degrades relatively fast. Best regards, luck and health in particular.

[@brianholding4357]

Well done both, hard work bribnis it own reward.

[@richardpage1162]

Hi there. Love the vids and your enginuity! Small tip/trick is to cover the mill with turtle wax hybrid sealant spray. Especially the slide rails. Not only does it protect From rain but it makes it much more mud resistant and easy to slide I use it on every vehicle and machine on the farm. Especially the windows. As well as windows and mirrors in the home. Outside windows stay amazingly clean Pretty much any surface to improve glide and water mud snow resilience. Game changer!
