[@littlegriffoffgridalberta6837]

Greg & Katie you guy's have came so far with that little homestead 👍Yes been with you guy's a long time some pretty awesome creations for sure ! ❤

[@ThisOffGridLife]

Thank you

[@jerryrogers9703]

That sawzall blade worked about as good as a windshield wiper on a duck's butt. 😂

[@stephenbembridge9118]

That wood grain looks FANTASTIC plained

[@marieparks5674]

I noticed that too

[@TruclyDo-s4h]

I have seen many better wood grains than that.

[@johnkoester6534]

Great job so far, glad you are healing up, you need to get and impact screwdriver instead of the drill. it is a lot safer and more effective tool foe all sizes of fasteners. Stay safe !

[@joannecalcutt6724]

Great job guys. Hope the dog is ok. ❤

[@marieparks5674]

That addition is going to be so nice.

[@OentoengKasanmoenadi-s2c]

I just enjoy watching your video’s so peacefully out there with awesome woods works concreets etc👍🏻🆒

[@peterstewart406]

My Grandpa would approve, great job

[@campjefferson8947]

I'm impressed at how you get sh*t done! Great teamwork!

[@hipichicfazio7758]

I am loving the look of this porch addition! Can't wait to see it finished and the drone footage too, gonna look way different from up there now. Love your channel!

[@stigsimo]

4 years on youtube,wow you have come far

[@sgrvtl7183]

Nice work! So many details to any project but You Two do it right 👌💯

[@jackieanderson6599]

So glad to see Greg is doing better... omg hope dog is ok with his mouth❤, fiberglass icky... your so my favorite to watch... ❤ Katie keep kicking butt girl, your awesome!

[@markhuston9250]

You did a great job promoting the DJI. I am looking at it.

[@vaughnmaurt5013]

I’m very impressed with the DJI unit I’m seriously checking it out

[@earlhildebran1733]

The two of you have come a long way from that big old yellow bus. When I turned 16 in (1 Jan 1965) I began driving a school bus of that size. I never even thought that someone would or could convert a bus to a camper/home. Look where you guys are now. What a difference. I hope the timbers will be visible when this addition is finished. It would be a shame to cover up such a beautiful grain.I have followed the two of you as you were working on the framing of the first floor. Keep up the good work.

[@1944chevytruck]

LOOKING GOOD!

[@TheHavasu_77]

You guys always brighten up my day!😊❤ The posts turned out absolutely beautiful, I love the wood grain on them!

[@TonyMoss-u3k]

Another Good job you two can't hardley wait for your next video.

[@Hillbilly007-yd9gu]

Timber framing is looking good. Nice job.

[@jerrystout3032]

Outstanding Craftsman ship 👍Great JOB guys!😇!😇!

[@QuietCottage]

This addition will be beautiful. I love the beauty of those posts.

[@old3folks]

I'm Freddie from Tennessee. I've been watching y'all for a long time now and enjoy watching.

[@braddobson2060]

You are a rare find beautiful, hard working and very smart. Good luck with the project.

[@bobdavis430]

Hi guys I love to watch your channel you work together so very well just please be careful where you put your propane tanks. I've Been in my local fire depth for 25 years I've many many houses burnt and so many people hurt,burnt and killed by propane. Watching you build your porch over ha g reminds me of a really bad call we had the home owners mm kept their two tanks on the back porch it was not closed in but their tanks sat right beneath the kitchen windows well one nice spring day a nice breeze blowing in those open windows n a pressure vent on one tank malfunctioned opening and the wind carried it in the house though those windows later that afternoon the lady came home opens the door turns the light on which ignites the gas which blows her out the door when she hit the sidewalk it busted the back of head open killing her and she had severe burns over 48 percent of her body it also blew out the front kitchen wall n the side wall burnt the house beyond repair so please be careful with those tanks

[@JosEPh-zy3yr]

Good to see Greg's arm is better. Katie you doing great on the mill as always, :D

[@joelenehammers8486]

Lots of outer pieces of wood for the fire the winter. That's so good for you guys.

[@claudiageldenhuys8375]

Hi Greg and Katie 😊 from a sunny South Africa 🇿🇦🇿🇦🌍...Cape Town

[@hendo19742]

A FEW SAFFERS WATCHING THIS CHANNEL 👍🇿🇦🇬🇧

[@johnkirby6547]

Hello Katie and Greg You guy's are doing an amazing job 👏. The wood looks great after planning and that is a nice little power station you have. Hopefully the pup is ok and no reaction to insulation..

[@richardwhite3711]

@ 8:59 damn Katie, Greg let you drive his tractor LMAO

[@DAHBHONG022]

Hello K and G. Thanks for adding and uploading a new video. I enjoyed and learned a lot as well. I noticed that you still dont have a garage for your CARS. It would be a good project to pursue and to video as well. ehehehe. Just suggesting tho..

[@cedricbroussard8738]

The house is coming together nicely 👌! Keep up the hard work 💪🏻

[@michaelbondick575]

You are both blessed to have your health and able to do what it takes to build your homestead.🕊🙏🏼🕊

[@lynnemac1402]

The post and beam you milled are so beautiful such amazing wood x

[@carolfaberpeake857]

The wood grain is awesome!! And you have the frame ready for the overhang 🎉🎉🎉

[@Iamtherodlight1453.]

So good to see that you guys got the windows ironed out blessings to you both and all the dogs. :)

[@ramiroleal8902]

So glad you guys are using Personal Protection Equipment (PPE). I love your videos you guys are a great team.

[@DaveS-gf4ik]

you all have come a long way love watching your videos thank you for all the hard work you put into making the videos it's very much appreciate dave from ct

[@kimmylai-fang7044]

Greg you have a very good Katie everybody should have a Katie ❤

[@randydobson1863]

Katie & Greg & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Katie Greg & Friends Randy

[@timpedraza2085]

Need someone like you Katy on my job sites 😅, I get so focused on the job it’s easy to overlook the fine details 😊

[@barrymurray8264]

Real nice video ! Thank you for sharing.

[@OffgridwithJayandJen]

Very Nice Work you two......pretty amazing what those little power stations can do huh? Best wishes

[@ThisOffGridLife]

Thank you very much!

[@PeterKNoone]

That lumber looks amazing going through the planer. So cool that you can make your own dimensional lumber. All I ask is that you wear at least eye protection when operating the mill.......can't turn off safety-Dad mode.

[@deanusher2263]

The pallet on the forks is great Collapsible Bulk Container - 32 x 30 x 25", 2,000 lb Capacity, Black is really stable when tided to forks, try and find a used one, also I strap a ladder to the side for access in the air, great for roofing or trimming trees.

[@racebanning6390]

Nice lumber posts, came out beefy👍👍That power station is robust for only 1000 WH. 🏁🏁Good test. Be blessed 🙏🙏🙏

[@ThisOffGridLife]

It's pretty crazy considering the weight

[@danrich7443]

FTR I click the thumbs up on all your vids

[@RonKoswin]

Can you tease us with what the plan will be once the addition is dried in, ie Finish the outside house siding, finish the skirting, or finish the inside of the new addition. You guys have accomplished so much together, enjoy the channel immensly.

[@ThisOffGridLife]

Finishing exterior after we get the insulation and vapour barrier in

[@luke4428]

I love this show don't know if I like the pretty much entire show is just one commercial....

[@jdram58]

Yo I think someone needs to send you two a couple of wide brimmed Amish hats I think youve earned them doing every thing pretty much by scratch. And very good team work as well.

[@barjio]

Maybe try add some plastic or something under that beam against concrete..

[@bertandbuckscott7808]

Your such a great team

[@maryandersen557]

Your addition is going to be fantastic

[@brendahuff4039]

I like it that you laugh at yourselves. You’re such a cute couple. You do have quite the scar on your arm for sure.

[@leonasimmons162]

Hi Katie hi Greg.🖐

[@joelujan2978]

U guys are awesome 👌 good job always, room for improvement at any time needed for both .Goodluck and Godbless 👍.

[@youtubetv5762]

Great job!

[@vaughnmaurt5013]

Those posts are beautiful ! And very impressive power station got to look into those

[@neil2809]

Must be nice to get all the portable power stations. i sure could use one. for power outages when I need my medical devises Rather than packing up and finding someplace that has Elc.

[@ritahall8653]

The porch type thing looks great

[@tracyeaves1084]

Great job on the deck and video

[@phyllismulkey3778]

looking good

[@jeremys3174]

Have you guys ever thought about finding a very small trailer you can tow with the quad. And make a mobile work station? Power banks below. Tools like mitre saw on one side and the planner ?

[@ThisOffGridLife]

We’ve talked about building out a utility trailer to keep the tools in, might be the answer!

[@jeremys3174]

@@ThisOffGridLife might make things easier for you guys....

[@doncaranci2547]

Its been getting chilly at night here in Ct. Low to mid fifties..Not ready for the cold Grrrrrrrr

[@jeffschulteis9168]

Math is your friend in calculating your heights 😀

[@teresarumley8694]

Looking good ❤❤

[@dirtroadsailing6418]

That must have been one hell of a sponsor for you to devote so much time to promoting and having the camera on it.

[@ThisOffGridLife]

We feel pretty lucky to be sponsored by such a well know brand

[@russellwatters5891]

The beams look great! Maybe a little wrought iron fanciness? 😅 Ya'll are doing an awesome job with the addition, won't be long.😊 Love ya'll ❤️

[@ld5714]

Aspen is still a puppy. I hope she was okay and didn't ingest any to cause a problem. I like the work you are doing, it will look very nice when completed. Have a productive and safe week and I'll see you on ht e next one. Larry, Central Valley, Ca.

[@Stakman1]

I'm telling you man. Buy some of the Milwaukee "the torch" sawzall blades. Thanks for sharing !

[@marykennedy3139]

❤ I just love watching you guys working together, just great everything is so beautiful. Love your goats i want one so bad😊😊😊😊. d

[@josefbalala2460]

Great job ❤❤❤

[@niknoks6387]

Oooo noooo that sawing noise with headphones on! 🫤

[@keithmclennan3275]

another tip I USE WHEN CUTTING SHORT BIGGER THING IS USE A CLAMP TO HOLD IT HELPS BIG TIME

[@mariesalway91]

wow at the appearance of the timber posts as they were being planed

[@stevenhartley1350]

You guys seriously need to sort out that scrap pile before winter, because you’re going to end up with some possibly unwanted visitors taking up residence in there to hibernate till spring. But this extension is really starting to look like it’s going to be awesome 🤩, however Greg you should ALWAYS have a barrier between concrete and wood, because otherwise you run the risk of the wood rotting away because of the wicking effect it will have with the porous effect of concrete. I must admit that Larch post is an absolutely beautiful piece of wood, there again that Larch tree trunk has produced some beautiful pieces of wood period.

[@cobb344]

We love all your videos, but this one was particularly informative! All the info for the DJI Powerstation 1000 is great. We are thinking seriously about buying it. Our power goes out occasionally… having a quiet power supply to use for a few hours would be very helpful. Thank you for the thorough review. 👍❤️

[@ThisOffGridLife]

Glad you found it useful. Thanks 😊

[@eduardfrazao3506]

Well done vary good job

[@beetleclemens3727]

Cool

[@georgetouliatos5972]

You need to get yourselves a couple of roller stands.

[@keithmclennan3275]

good looking beam

[@chucklogan9611]

You guys have a ton of firewood in your scrap pile! Lol

[@nigelovery2545]

Hi, you should have put a bracket on the bottom of that post,wood on concrete will rot very quickly

[@ralphm2856]

Looked like Katie was doing the moon walk when you were planning the 6×6 or 8×8. Be safe and careful guys. ❤

[@RobertGates-u6h]

Rebar is a lot harder steel than you’d expect. 😁

[@CurtisWestsail]

Your untreated posts on the concrete will rot because of direct contact with the concrete. You’re good for a few years. looks amazing guys.

[@hallenw]

Clamping the planer to the plywood would make it far less bouncy.

[@old3folks]

I think you should buy a cutting torch.

[@wildbenny11]

That house looks like the house on little house on the prairie lol

[@alexhuxley3355]

Really satisfying watching that timber come out of the planer. Whish I could smell it 🪵🌲

[@azjeep26]

You should find a blacksmith to make you a branding iron with your logo and do some stamps on your woodworking materials

[@srlsolutionsself-reliancet3247]

i wish all these homesteading/off grid channels would research what a water level is... the lasers definitley are handy but in the daytime you would have level in seconds with a water level

[@kelliepineda9822]

chain saw to make those cuts for knee brace

[@MrSrtman18]

Throw that battery box in the woods lol.

[@bertandbuckscott7808]

Besides your labour's, how much in total were the beams??

[@ThisisOurLifeOffGrid]

Aspen, be good!😂

[@garysparks2681]

Basic Mistake - NEVER put raw wood in direct contact with concrete. The concrete wicks moisture and the wood wicks it up. That spells ROT.

[@scottmorris4914]

On the rebar, gravity and friction will keep the rebar in the hole, and gravity will keep the beam on the rebar. The rebar will keep it from moving side to side, it should be good.

[@keithmclennan3275]

it's got the red cedar interior colours to it

[@brendafarrow3117]

Did , Ya know you can buy a metal cut blade for your circular saw ? 💙💙💙
