I would say about 10 minutes. My process kind of went like this: After the first batch was mixed, I would dump it into a concrete mixing tub so I could drag the concrete over to the hole. Before I dragged it over to the hole I would start another batch in the mixer. That way while I am shoveling/dumping the concrete into the hole I already have another batch mixing...So, after the concrete has been put in the hole and the next batch is mixing, I take the time to fill the next bucket of water and prep for the next batch. Once it starts you kinda get in a rhythm. Thanks for watching!

You're telling me! I was glad to see that prices have finally returned to normal when I went to my supplier and grab all of those sheets of Zip and CDX. Have a great weekend!

You and me both brother!!! Hope all is well in your neck of the woods! S/F

I'm almost sorry I didn't think of that at the time. Thanks!!

Thanks 👍

Yes, very similar. Thanks for hangin out.

Hang in there...Thanks for watching.

I've seen those extensions in action and they look like a great idea. I'm sure they would have helped me out. Thanks for hangin out!!

Yeah that bark is tough on blades for sure. Thanks for watching!

Pretty sure I passed out on the couch that night. Thanks for watching!!

Thanks for watching!!

I'm glad I don't wrestle with those big ones very often! Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for hanging out!

I appreciate you sticking around.

I did my best. I'll work on the safety thing...Thanks!

Stay warm up there.

The last thing I want to do is move those debris piles. UGH Thanks for the input.

I move them with my cant hook when I think it would help. I did quite a bit but it may not have made it onto the video.

I was amazed it worked out as well as it did. I expect there will be some more of that in the near future. Thanks for waching.

YES!!! Hard times make hard men! Thanks for hanging in there with me.

I'm hoping that the winch on the four wheeler holds out for the season...It saved my but this week for sure.

It sure would help!

Thanks I appreciate it. Its been nice getting back into the swing of things.

I try not stress the strap to much, but your right, strap to the face might leave a mark. Thanks for watching.

Thanks... Hopefully things will keep getting better.

Thanks.

Thanks 👍 We are excited!!

We are still around but I have been working on some other projects (not cabin related) and taking care of some family business. We will be back in front of the camera soon. Thanks for stopping by.

Once I had the consistency that I was looking for I would let it spin for about 5 minutes. It was thoroughly mixed and any additional chemical reaction with the mix would take place in the hole. There is no way I (solo) would be able to use two mixers unless I had another helper or two. There is just always something to do...filling water buckets, prepping next hole, prepping next bags. There is just a lot going on and if there is a minute or two to rest, I appreciated it. Thanks for taking the time to ask.

I don't have dimensions written down but it really couldn't be much easier to put together. Just decide what length log you will carry most and make your main beam maybe a foot longer and go from there. i.e. I want the ability to carry a 12 foot log so my main beam is about 78 inches. Also your max width. My mill can cut up to a 30 inch log (barely) so I set my width about 32 inches. I used graph paper and just sketched it out. I used 1/4" thick 3" square tubing for the primary structure and pieced everything else together with trailer parts from tractor supply. Thanks for stopping by.

Thanks, I appreciate it!

Thanks! Rafters drive me nuts...its just one of those things I struggle with every time. Are you going to record your build and post it?

nah , i'm an old fart , illiterate in the ways of electronic geegawwery , just a desk top , no cell phone tracking device and no wish to be famous . been in construction my whole life but always looking for a better way , lol@@LazyTCabins

I appreciate you hanging in there with me. Thanks!

We still have cabins 4 and 5 to build...you never know! Thanks for taking the time.

Thanks. These shorter days are forcing me to rethink some daily projects. Last thing I want to be doing is driving nails by flashlight.

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Thanks!

You are reading my mind!!

I thought about that but since the depth of cut on my circular saw would not cut through the beam I would have had to match up a cut from the opposite side. My primary objective was to have a clean, even cut across the entire beam and although slow, I was very pleased with the outcome. Thanks for checking in.

That material is so thin that it won't support that type of fastening. It would just bust the tongue to pieces and make it even more difficult to work with. Good eye though, thanks for watching.
