holy smokes when snows in America it snows looks nice but were i live it never snows any how cheers from Australia

[@deniseellenburg649]

Hi Buddy! Watching from Walker County south of Jasper! Excellent job on your cabin!!

[@ifiwooddesigns]

That’s crazy! Snowing in southern Alabama. As a native NY’er and summer lover, if I never saw another flake, I wouldn’t miss it.

[@stewartwilkinsonsnr]

Dylan that was the most interesting video, I’m 77 and remember the fun I had in my youth. I salute you for showing us what an out standing young man your are. Love seeing you sitting under the metal panels cooking your Tea then off to bed all while the snow was coming down. Love how you show the bits when you make a mistake like with the door post being a little short, some would just edit that out. Owen seems to love looking at the camera when Molly brings him on site bless him xx Thanks for another superb video. See you all soon xxx ❤️💙💙

[@lauravandien2363]

What a surprise to have snow. You’re already hanging out in the cabin, so you can tell that there are going to be many memories made. Owen sure is a cutie-nice to see him and Molly.

[@billroberts3864]

Dillion and Molly, you will make many memories along with your son, when the cabin is completed and the ground is landscaped. You will talk about the cabin build for many years. Blessings to you folks.

[@Woodbrew]

It’s a blessing to have the opportunity to build this with my family and I can’t wait to make more memories in it✌️

[@SNESGuy-s3s]

You know mother nature's off her meds when there's no snow where I'm at in Canada and there's snow where you are!

[@Woodbrew]

😅 Wild times

[@joannecanetti7481]

That little boy is absolutely adorable. Loved the hat. 😊

[@scottmorris4914]

Wow, very eventful week. Really enjoy the videos. I have a hint to share, not building related. It has to do with sleeping out in the cold. Sleep in a plastic bag inside the sleeping bag. During the night you perspire, and if that humid air gets to the sleeping bag, the moisture will condense and it will get cold, losing some insulating capabilities. At least sleep with you feet in a bag, because your feet perspire a great deal. I have winter camped a good bit, even in 2 degree weather, and this has kept me warm.

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks Scott! I’ll keep that tip in mind next time I go camping👍

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

Love this

[@JoseSalazar-dm8bc]

Dillon, you handle those flour Tortillas and Burritos better than me. And, I’m Hispanic !

[@scottolsonrealtor]

Where I am up in Canada this would be considered a light snow, but I can understand how this would be a major snow dump for your area. I’ve been in your neck of the woods a few times and I love it.

[@cheriefletcher803]

I was born in alaska and grew up in Washington and Idaho in a camper back in the 1960s and 1970s,.you would have loved it!!!

[@Woodbrew]

That sounds like an incredible time👌

[@puddintame9989]

As one who lives in the mountains of north Idaho, your little skiff of snow doesn't seem like much, we sometimes get two feet of snow at a time (not often, but it is not a rarity either), however, for areas that are not used to it, I understand it can be rather crippling. I had to admire your fortitude to cook and "campout" in this snow storm. Loved seeing Molly helping you, she is gaining invaluable skills. I am glad that little Owen made an appearance (or two) as well, he is so precious. The cabin is coming along nicely, I am enjoying watching it take shape.

[@Woodbrew]

North Idaho is no joke. We had some structures collapse in our area from the snow load. This was around 2x the most recorded in history here.🥶 Thank you for the kind words and for watching!

[@regnepinak9864]

Dillon, Good video! I live in central Canada our coldest night this winter was in the range of -22F for about 3 days and nights not to mention the wind chill which is usually10 degrees colder. I agree with making sure you take care of your family and being ready if the power goes off. Looking forward to seeing the cabin going up! It sounds like you have plans for Owens upbringing, he'll be a happy boy!

[@neil2809]

Its always GREAT seeing the three of you together

[@darthgbc363]

It warmed up tp 34°F today. It was -24°F. Then it warmed up enough for it to snow. The snow you had is what we call just your normal Tuesday. Looks like fun. You should make a BIG long handle maul. Take a 2x2 for a handle & a 8x8 for the head.

[@whitelilly35]

Blessings to your family. I especially love to see you prepare for future family memories. I can’t wait for the baby to grow up enough to see him do things with you. ❤️

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you so much!❤️❤️

[@kimbevan5614]

Beautiful work guys. Love to you 3 from the UK xx

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks so much!

[@ninabooker2904]

Your cabin, cowboy hat, snowy pine trees in the background look so picturesque. That’s a photo for the memory book. ❤ You probably noticed by now that snow cover makes everything more quiet, it’s muffles the sound, it’s very peaceful.

[@leahr.2620]

I am 67 years old raised by parents who loved to fish and camp, and cooking over the open fire would be fun to me also. 😊

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

I miss camping with my Dad. Somewhere by a lake that we fished all day. Sunglow on our faces. 😊 Miss it all

[@rudyfisher7660]

If you wanted to make it warmer, you can hang a tarp on the inside of that center section. And then that way it just keeps the loft. It's blocked off, and you can just crawl under the tarp, from the center section into the loft

[@Woodbrew]

Great tip✌️

[@anthony2816]

I wish my house had been built with a tenth of the structure that Dylan is putting into the framing of this cabin. Then when the next California earthquake hits me, I could just sit back and laugh at it.

[@susanquenneville2462]

You are “living the life “ many only dream of … fortunately you are also recording these memories to share with your beautiful son … its - 18 C here in Quebec today .

[@Woodbrew]

❤️❤️

[@danaowen9014]

I loved this video, owen looks so cute out in the snow, nice to see Molly as well.

[@annaromero6312]

You are a brave man working in the cold. I live in the San Antonio, TX area and we had a small amount of snow. No matter how much it’s always beautiful. I love your videos. 🥰💕

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks for watching!🙏 It sure is pretty seeing everything in the snow.

[@David-Reed]

I live in Northwest IL, just about to the WI border. You received more snow than we have for the season. I'm disabled and old, I think you are much stronger and more able to handle it. You can keep our snowfalls, lol 😂 Although we did get down to -23 degrees for lows out of the storm. That's not including wind chill

[@Woodbrew]

Dang! That’s crazy. -23 you can just keep that no worries😅😅

[@josannefromin7750]

Wonderful

[@robmilligan9157]

Best episode ever!

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

Absolutely

[@blipoop1]

I was beginning to think Dylan had done something to annoy his wwife and sshe made him sleep outside until Molly made an appearance lol, I joke.

[@texasjustice1861]

Dillon, you are the example of what a Godly man should be. You support and encourage your wife to try new things and help her learn something new. You are a great Husband and father. Keep it up young man. also I got 4" of snow down around my house.... hated every bit of it. lol

[@Woodbrew]

✊✊ I sure appreciate your kind words. The lord is my shepherd🙏

[@texasjustice1861]

@@Woodbrew yes he is

[@andreacrashe9894]

*Molly & Dylan, gosh little Owen is growing up fast...🙂 Wow working on the cabin whilst it is snowing... loved the camping out part... can see you both camping out with Owen as he gets older 🙂nz*

[@iainwallace7358]

Excellent job capturing wonderful family experiences in a once-in-a-generation southern states snowfall. We were doing the same here in Texas.

[@rudyfisher7660]

Next, you need to build a fire pit app there a decent one with good rocks and stuff. Have a good round fire pit with some. You know, chairs. The rock seats around it or stump seats around it, or vlog seats around it, whatever

[@Woodbrew]

That's a great idea, we've been thinking about that too. The rock seating around a fire pit sounds awesome.

[@donaldarmstrong3657]

arm chair support here. You can use either zip ties, or plastic clamps on the sides, of the tarp, to attach ropes. At least 2 or 3. Then throw them over the top, to the other side, and pull each rope. the tarp will rise, till you ready to stop. Just nail the tarps to the studs. And do the other side. If using two tarps, then eyelets can be pulled at an angle, to keep the overlap from blowing away.

[@davidmorsse5437]

Hey Dillon you have awesome content. If you want help with the cabin let me know. I will pack my truck up with tools and come down to help

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks so much man, appreciate the offer!

[@BPWhitman]

Growing up in the north, I’ve seen my share of snow. Watching the folks here in Northwest Tennessee , Jay Bates in Mississippi, y’all in south Alabama makes me smile. Making the best of it. Making memories. To quote my dad, who I miss greatly, “They can’t take this one away from us.” Documenting it along the way will make it even sweeter!! Love the content!! Keep it up!!

[@anthony2816]

What a great episode! It had everything I subscribed for.

[@kathyrussellrussell7114]

You are truly amazing, the detail you put into your work it just amazing, it's just perfection 👌 ❤👏👏

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you so much 😀

[@blakeclark9094]

That snowstorm was crazy. We got 8” of snow over in Mobile.

[@Woodbrew]

Yea, same we had about 8”! Cool to see you are so close to us. Small world.

[@JustMe-s6s4m]

I hope you enjoy the snow. I wouldn't. I had enough of it as a kid in northern Indiana to last a life time! Nice memories, but I don't need it in reality anymore. Go ahead and let the kid in you out every now and then. It helps the rest become a better man.

[@johnkirby6547]

Very cool, I was wondering how you guy's were doing during this storm. Glad you had some fun and everything worked out well.

[@DianeCasanova]

As a mom, the first thing I wanted to know was - who was in the house watching the baby?

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

I believe it's Mollys Mom.

[@101doreen]

Looking forward to the rest of the build.

[@Woodbrew]

✌️

[@thejacobfromstateprison3886]

Enjoy the snow while you have I have to ask how was the tacos

[@Woodbrew]

👌👌

[@darthgbc363]

I like having the big beams for the door. Makes a nice solid place to mount hinges & latch. I put three 2x4's together for both sides of the door frame in my shed & 4x4's horizontal at each hinge to the next 2x4.

[@abeerali7834]

Owen is so cute ❤ I can tell he’s going to be a deep thinker 🥰

[@onsapplikasies8620]

Blessings to your family

[@moonandstars4274]

This was a fun video to watch with the snow and all. And your guys son is the cutest little guy ever. Those cheeks I tell you. ❤❤❤

[@Woodbrew]

The cheeks are dangerously cute! It’s hard not to squeeze them😂

[@barrychandler5250]

I am in South Georgia and we got the snow too!

[@Woodbrew]

It’s pretty crazy!

[@ajjuney]

Cute family and project. 👏🏻👏🏻

[@neil2809]

I would not have any problem at all doing that. I use too camp for two weeks in November in NYS TAKE CARE and STAY WELL

[@billrutledge2441]

Love how Owen knows to look directly at the camera!

[@randletibbs56]

I'm glad y'all finally got some snow down there instead of here in Montevallo this time😊

[@darrenmcdonald6511]

Have you looked into the chainsaw attachment that habor fright has to go on your saw to cut big timber

[@denniscarreno5882]

Another beautiful video…..perfect!

[@BreakingBarriers2DIY]

I wondered if you thought big windows would be great at both ends of the loft? And also if you checked the summer angle of the sun when determining the overhang? Or maybe this is mostly shaded in summer. I love the “ kids fort” approach to a snow storm. Great content.

[@wolfpacva]

Batteries do not like the cold weather. They dont hold a charge as long as normal. Glad you got the snow for a change. Not a flake up here in Birmingham. Why did u sleep outside, was it so u could try and get a peaceful full nights sleep ? Your cabin looks great.

[@Woodbrew]

I’m weird like that I guess🤷 I just enjoy a cold night camping.

[@wolfpacva]

@@Woodbrew hope you enjoyed it

We didn't get any snow in Northeast Alabama.

[@Woodbrew]

Yea we had snow on the beaches!

[@JimmyHinton]

@Woodbrew My stepson lives in Spanish Fort, Alabama, and he showed us pictures of the snow.

[@matthewcarpenter6668]

Love your content. I’ve been watching for awhile now. I’ve got to ask, was this build inspired by the Outdoor Boys homestead?

[@allenharris2549]

You are now the preeminent internet expert on snow camping in Alabama. 🎉

[@HagiWoodworks]

More snow there than here in Wisconsin

[@Woodbrew]

😂

[@terryjohnson3100]

Cut it two times and it is still too short😅

[@Woodbrew]

👀

[@scotthoffman5019]

Man, what'd you do?

[@ClutterCamp]

Love the video. But I would not camp out in the snow. I’m too spoiled by things like a kitchen, bed, toilet and warmth from a furnace.

[@Robertbush-s7t]

Watch out or she may get better then the teacher

[@Woodbrew]

👀

[@markduggan3451]

I understand the fact that you wanted to stay out in the shed, but I think you should have been with your family.

[@RazorbackYellow]

You are a brave soul to eat Deer Meat that's been in the freezer for a year...

[@waderue]

and if you guys want I live in the north west part of the Great state of Montana and if would like you have open invite to come visit any time you want as we say here come and get lost

[@rtskelton335]

You slept with it It's not a virgin anymore!

[@waderue]

and I do not know why you would want sleep out in cold did you bump your head you should go inside and stay warm

[@dannjp75]

Anyone with half a brain would just go to a hotel. No one gets caught out in the wilds anyone. Airb&b is everywhere…

👍👍👍🫵 3 🪨 You have that portable power pack for the trailer you should’ve brought it up in the loft with a portable heater. This way you would’ve had heat all night long. You wouldn’t have to worry about the heat. Sincerely, Chuck.
