Welcome to SAFARIJOE’S ADVENTURES. I am a lifelong outdoorsman. I enjoy the independent and self sustaining lifestyle. Hunting, fishing, farming, exploring, building and mechanical projects have always been part of my life. I like sharing these adventures with family and friends. In all you do, MAKE YOUR LIFE AN ADVENTURE.
Building the foundation and floor system on our new Off grid cabin.
In this video, I am building the foundation, floor support system, and insulated floor for our new cabin on our off grid abandoned hunting camp. I am using 35, 50 in helical piles In a grid pattern with 4 x 4, southern yellow pine critical structure risers Bolted to the piles. There are seven 4 x 6 x 16’ southern yellow pine critical structure beams that will set on top of the risers. The floor joist framing will be 2 x 6 x 16‘ and 2 x 6 x 12‘. there is 2 x 2 x 8 furring strips that will hold in the 2 inch foam insulation with an R10 rating. The deck is 4 x 8 by three-quarter inch sheets of treated plywood and under the floor to seal up. The bottom will be 4 x 8 by half inch sheets of treated plywood. If you have any questions about any of this, please leave them in the comment section, and I will be glad to answer them for you. Thank you so much for watching.

We have decided to build a new cabin and use the old one as a temporary tool shed until we can tear it down. Meanwhile, we need a temporary shelter on the property for us as we build the cabin. In this video, I am building a very simple temporary shipping container shelter for that purpose. After our cabin is built, we will use this container for a different project so everything I added to thi...

I have been up there six times so far to work on the cabin and 95% of it has been working on the property instead of the cabin. The first trip I did strip the inside of the cabin to the studs and we hold that down to the Landfill. in the following trips, we hold more junk that was spread out around the cab...

In this video, I decided to do an experiment and make some charcoal. This is some thing I’ve never tried before, but I figured as long as I was going to be burning last year‘s brush that I cut down around our off grid abandoned hunting camp, I might as well put the fire to use, I hope you enjoy this video and that it was informative to you. This is easy to do as you can see it was my first time...

Why didn't you clear the lot before you built the cabin?
Most the trees around the cabin are in great shape and don’t need to be cut. I have 26 acres that’s very heavily wooded. I have cut a few around the cabin area that I knew needed to go. To be honest I just missed this one when I was doing that.
@safarijoesadventures By the way you have a nice looking place I admire what you did to make it home.
@@timothymercer3526 I am in the process of putting together the video of building the walls and drying in the cabin. I will be back up in a couple of weeks to put on the trim and paint it before winter sets in. Thank you for checking in. I always appreciate the comments.
Nice walk thru. Mounted my first downriggers back in mid 80’s. I would have opted for some aluminum angle instead of the steel. I preferred the Big Jon downriggers and planar mast. And I made 4” square plates to mount into with thumbscrews. Just another way and OEM.
@@mnmike6884 I think the aluminum would’ve been the better option also as it is lighter and strong enough. I may change that at some point. Thank you for checking in.
Nice job😅
@@Cruiser777 thank you. I’ll keep the cabin looking nice too lol
Murphy's Law is always present. You aced this cut.
@@thomasfahey2091 yes, Murphy always seems to be there and you have to do your best with what you got. I have done this before with these kind of trees, but it has been many years. It did exactly what I wanted it to do so I was well pleased. Thank you.
Winter wood,,I notice fire wood is over $350 a tonnage here in Hobart Tasmania Australia 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
@@RoslynCane-pp9ow absolutely! We have 26 acres here where I’m building our new cabin and probably a half 1 million trees on it. I see lots of good firewood.🌲🌲. It’s good to hear from Australia howdy to all my friends down under.
@safarijoesadventures your sitting on a gold mine my friend 🧡 Hobart Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️ 💖 💕 ♥️
Great job Joe!
@@victoriaguckian8578 thank you
You should cut perpendicular to rot & cracks whenever possible; not parallel. Cutting it like you did makes it more likely to blow up on you, especially if you're pulling on it, if it's a heavy/tall stem or has a large/sprawling crown; glad it didn't.
Bro, did you watch the video? He knows that. He couldn’t cut it perp without dropping it right against the rest of the trees or bringing it in the direction of his cabin.
@@Spoons7414 thank you, the winds were gusting quite highly, and that tree was going to fall one way or the other. Either on the cabin or away from the cabin, not much of a choice in this one. it was really hard to tell without being there there from the angle my camera was sitting.
@@I_Like_Trees_963 the way, the wind was blowing the tree back-and-forth. It was going to either fall on my cabin or away from my cabin. That is why I did it that way. Trust me I logged for a couple of years in Flagstaff, Arizona and I know the trees can be very tricky. As soon as it started to crack and tip, I was out of there I have had them barber chair a couple of times about 30 years ago and I was expecting it both times. And like you said all turned out well thanks for checking in.
@@Spoons7414 I don't think he knows the "ins and outs". I'm really not trying to be rude or anything but anyone who really does this would recognize his strap/rope/chain setup is essentialy useless at that height and the cuts he made were not clean, that tells me he doesn't know as much as he may think. It looks to me like he could have put his face cut in directly into the rot and laid the tree down in front of his cabin just fine.
@@safarijoesadventures Gotcha, glad it all worked out for you!
Scope is now 132 and that's on sale. Haha all thansk tovuour wondefuk review 😂. Thanks for the heads up i was getting tired of trying to zero this.
@@flextefitness4954 i’m hearing more bad reports on the scope that Gamo uses than good ones. My rifle shoots fine with the bug Buster scope I bought for it. Thanks for checking in.
@safarijoesadventures awesome it's on my list to get
Great job!
@@jtmar157 I thought so. The sound of that thing cracking was pretty wicked. I had no choice because it was going to come down in that windstorm so I directed its direction of fall.
@safarijoesadventures definitely don't want all that hard work to be wiped away in a day! Glad you took care of it before disaster struck!
Gamo scopes are trash
@@Steelcityreece a gun, any gun is only a accurate as the sighting system that sits on it. I was told when I was a little boy when you buy a rifle don’t cheap out on the scope. Whatever amount you spend on your rifle, you should spend that on a scope for it. Typically scopes that cost under $100 are not very good scopes.
Nice job Joe! Todd from da U.P.
@@FordDude66 thank you I’ve just about got this cabin dried in. I should be done by the end of the week then I’m headed back home for about three weeks and then my wife and I are coming up 1 October for another week of vacation and maybe a little working on the cabin, I’m having fun with it. Thanks for checking in.
I use my wildcat whisper, for pigeons, at work. They make a huge mess. Are they did. I should say!!
@@metalted6128 well these Eurasian doves we have are an invasive species and they eat a lot of grains that the farmers feed their animals. I only have 21 chickens but there’s times that there’s 10 or 15 or more. Eurasian doves out there taking their food so I make dinner out of them because everybody knows doves are pretty good eating. We also have a lot of ground squirrels that are a nuisance. I get a few of those every week. I really enjoyed this pellet rifle. It’s pretty darn accurate. I think I want to get another one, but in a 22 caliber instead of the 177 just to see how they work. Thanks for checking in, I always appreciate the comments.
They sell these things for 10-20 bucks on amazon
@@zaneslavin3161 that is where I got the battery hub and the LED strip lighting. They work excellent.
I was literally just sitting in my garage thinking about making this thank you 👍 I converted my 4 year olds electric 9v car to Makita 18v and she drove it for 2 miles around a local lake and the battery still read 4 bars so I’m confident that these lights will run for a very long time
@@andymitchell368 thanks for checking it out. I’ve made a couple of these and they were very well and I was so surprised at how long the batteries actually lasted. I have one upstairs in a cabin on my property and I have another one in a shipping container it’s amazing. How long do you last. I also made a redneck air conditioner out of an ice chest that runs off the Makita battery. It’s in another video if you check out my videos.
Hi can you put a link to the footing things you are using by chance? looks great.
@@Lmize if you look up pylex helical piles 50 in. They are $47.99 at Home Depot but you can buy them other places.
Solid foundation and floor. Looks great.
@@robertdknight thank you. I am up here right now. Building the front deck on it and framing in the walls. Hopefully, I can get it dried in this week. I will have a video coming on this.
@@safarijoesadventures excellent! 🙂
@robertdknight thank you

Check the screws tighten them up
@@davidacosta147 I have been installing scopes on rifles for close to 50 years. I use a wheeler torque screwdriver to make sure they are all done perfectly. I also use a little bit of the blue Loctite. On every scope I install. It was definitely a problem with the scope, I repeated the process when I put on the new scope and you can get head shots on Eurasian doves where I have it sighted in at. I could’ve got a bad scope as some people have told me they’ve had no issues with it and others say they have. But I do know the one that’s on there now works very well. Thank you for checking in.
Do you know any good scopes that are under $100 for this air gun
If you watch this video in its entirety, you’ll see that I am recommending one in there. That is just a hair over $100 and it works perfectly on that airgun. Thanks for checking in.
@@safarijoesadventures I did see that scope and it is now $134 on Amazon and was wondering if you know any cheaper ones
@@sanfrancschmidt1238 what I did is googled the best budget scopes for air rifles. I looked at two or three different sites that said the best five the best 10 the best eight scopes for air rifles in the one I got kept coming up so that’s why I got it. That’s what I would do if I was you just google the best air rifle scopes. I am pretty familiar with regular rifle scopes, but I’m kind of new to air rifles with scopes. That’s how I found that one. I hope that helps. Thank you again.
Great, I bought the .22 to do iguana pest control, yours is a .177 .. I’ll try it with the reg scope to see what happens. Thanks
That is a good idea. I have talked with many people who own this gun and scope combos who had no issues with it. I could have just got a defective scope.
Just a quick note to people new to air rifles. Break barrel rifles are much different from multi-pump or PCP airguns and require a scope that is rated specifically for a break barrel airgun. The distinction is a break barrel (either spring piston or nitro piston) has reverse recoil. Firearm scopes are NOT designed to handle reverse recoil. Bottom line is check to see if it's break barrel (springer) rated before you buy a scope. The original scope on your rifle would have been springer rated it was just defective. The Eurasian doves are very tasty. ;) 👍👍
@@airguntrucker that’s what I’m thinking because I’ve talked to people that have no problems with them. I have been using the new scope I put on there since I’ve had the gun and it is working flawlessly. and yes, those Eurasian doves cook up very well.👍
Hope the mule got a break and had an iced cold drink.
@@loudmouthnewyorker2803 heyyyy Wilber He was drinking ice water all day.
Is there a way to shorten the lights?
Yes, there is they give you directions on how to do that with the lights. You use scissors and cut them off where you want the length of them to be.
''I don't think there's anything special about unboxing, it comes from a box just like everything else''🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@gabriel_the_enchilada48 my sentiments, exactly as long as it shows up undamaged we’re all good.
@@safarijoesadventures BY THE WAY i love your videos so much, keep up the good work.👍😄 I'm also planning on getting that gun......you inspired me lol
Im subscribed :)
@@gabriel_the_enchilada48 well thank you for watching. I appreciate it. And I’m glad you like my videos my friends call me a Renaissance man because I can do a lot of different things. They wanted me to start a TH-cam channel and start putting it down on film so other people could see it and I actually enjoy it. I have a little bit of a background in photography but the filmmaking is relatively new but I’m having a lot of fun with it and I get to meet people like you and talk to you which is cool. Thanks again.
@@gabriel_the_enchilada48 and thank you for subscribing.
Never seen this method before, looks really awesome! Keep up the good work and the videos please!
Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it. These have been around for a while, but mostly used for building decks to hold your posts firmly but in the past few years, they have been using them quite a bit in Sandy areas to get down to the hardpan sand and below the frost line. They have extensions you can put on them if you need them and if you follow their engineered guidelines at 4 foot apart for loadbearing walls and 8 foot apart for non-loadbearing walls they will work great. I kind of went overkill as I put them in a 4‘ x 4‘ grid underneath the cabin so it should never move. I will be doing this for the front porch area also. And yes, I will be filming the entire cabin build to completion. Thanks again for stopping by. I appreciate the support.
The key to anything lasting and worthwhile is a firm foundation. That looks like it’ll be perfect! Well done!
@ADifferentKindofQuiet I agree, they foundation is the key too many years of stability on any building. When you guys were up here, you seen that the cabin that is already here. It’s just setting on blocks. Most of these hunting camps around here are built just like that. Some are higher off the ground than others. I think for a small cabin that’s not used a whole lot that would be perfectly adequate and easy to re- adjust for frost heaving if needed. This cabin is 16 x 24. And with these piles that go 50 inches in the ground, I highly doubt we will have any issues with frost heaving. If we do, we have those adjustable nuts under the saddles of each of them and about six inches of travel for adjustment. These are completely new to me, and I’m hoping for them to be less of a hassle for movement. but I think they will be perfect for that area. I hope you’re enjoying being grandparents. It’s awesome.
Dude! Yes! This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for the tutorial!
@@longwildernesswalks you are very welcome and thanks for subscribing. I will be filming the entire build of this cabin and I will be doing a step-by-step as I proceeded with it. My goal is not only to build a cabin or anything for that matter, but it is to show people how to do it So they get the knowledge and can do it themselves. Thanks again.
Thank you for sharing your knowlege with us.👍
@@notanaive I enjoy sharing the skills. I’ve learned over the years with others. Even some of the tricks of the trade when you’re working by yourself. I am glad you enjoyed it. There will be more videos as I progress on the cabin. Thanks for watching.
Hey Joe, You might want to put all of your videos on one site so we can find them more easily. B
Every video I do I put on my TH-cam channel. That is the best place to find it. I also put it on my Facebook page so my friends on Facebook that don’t have a TH-cam account can see them
Nice start to the cabin build. I've watched lots of cabin builds on TH-cam and this is the first one that I've seen with this type of foundation. I think that's pretty cool. I hope that you enjoyed your time back in da Yoop. Take care. Todd from da U.P.
@FordDude66 yes, I always like my time in the UP It reminds me so much of growing up, up there. Most of the cabins that I see out in the area where mine is sit on blocks on top of the ground, which is mostly sand. It does shift a little bit with the freeze and thaw cycles and these piles will screw in below the frost line. Hopefully I alleviate that in this cabin. And there is about 6 inches of adjustment on those saddles. This is new to me also so we will see. I am heading back up on 13 August to frame the cabin and dry it in hopefully. More to come. Thanks for stopping in, it’s great talking with you.
Glad to see this project get started! That floor looks great! I’ll be following along.
@@mountaintenhuntingclub7484 me too, I think this is going to be better than trying to rebuild the old one.
Joe, you did some really good work on that project! It was really fun to watch you, and I wish I could have been there to help. I can't wait to see it all in person!
@@claywalker2233 it’ll be nice when it’s done. Lots of stuff to do up there, all of it good.
We can’t wait for you to visit also! I am looking forward to going up there in October and very excited to see what it will look like by then.😊
I share your sentiment about rodents! I can handle field/deer mice but packrats are the absolute WORST! They will tunnel/ chew through 1/2 inch wood/drywall.. just about anything to get where they want to go! I had to retrofit all the walls behind cabinets and appliances in the kitchen with sheets of metal. It’s the only thing that has actually worked… 😡 I hate them soooo much!! 😫
@@Jennifermcintyre yes, they can be pretty overwhelming in some areas. The only mice that I’ve seen here so far are the plain little field mice. But this other cabin was full of holes that the builder didn’t deal with, and it became infested with them. so I’m making sure everything is sealed as I go. And I have also built some passive bucket traps that have been killing a lot of them. Just need bait and you never have to reset them.
Time to pickup a couple of shelter cats to guarantee them rodents don't come around the new cabin.
@@loudmouthnewyorker2803 A good mouser is worth its weight in gold.
I appreciate your videos. I've done some simple construction, and the foundation is always the toughest part. You made it look simple. You made the right move by building a new cabin. There's nothing worse than a structure that's infested with rodents. Better to start over with something you know is correct from the start.
@@Colichemarde yes, I do believe I made the right move also. Just because I could do something with the other cabin mean it was the best idea. The nice thing about this new cabin is I can make it pretty much rodent proof being its new construction and will be done properly. Thanks for watching and I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Welcome back to Michigan. Following the progress and looking good.
@@AmyFerdon thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it and it’s always good to be in the UP. I will be spending a lot more time up there once we have a cabin to stay in.
Would you possibly know of any open sights that could be installed on these? I just bought the gun and would like to have that option if possible
@@joemorton9217 that particular gun came with a scope only and as far as I know of does not have open sites available. Maybe in another model they may.
Why want my front stock lock
@@marknelson1681 I’m not sure what you mean, I would need a little more information.
I just got this to take care of a rat problem. Is there any way to use this on a tripod so I can aim on a fence line and not have to worry about re aiming all the time! Thank you 🙏
@@Jennifermcintyre i’m not sure what you mean. You always have to aim at what you’re shooting at. But to steady the rifle, you could use a tripod, Attach a bipod or you shooting bags, your accuracy will always be better when you have a solid or firm rest for the rifle instead of just shooting it off your shoulder. I have done competitive shooting with large caliber rifles and it’s the same thing whether you’re using, a large caliber rifle or a pellet rifle the techniques are all the same. I hope that helped you.
a bipod on a break Barrel air rifle makes no sense not sure how you would operate the pellet gun.
@@robertcampbell5485 I don’t have a bipod on mine. But I know there are companies that make bipods that are spring loaded and will clamp on the barrel and unclamp easily. That may be an option for someone that wants to use one.
@@safarijoesadventures i didn't know that as a thing. Seems like it would be cumbersome.
@@robertcampbell5485 no not really you just squeeze the bipod legs with your hand and the top opens and goes around the barrel then you let it go. The spring tension holds it on the barrel. I have a friend that uses one on a 22 rifle.
That's a long drive!
@@kevinzurek9182 yes it is, but I grew up in the upper peninsula of Michigan. I’m building a cabin there on an old abandon off grid hunting camp that I purchased two years ago November 4.
My Father has one. The inly problem we find is using it for long periods of time and the charcoal/ wood suffocating from the ashes. We still love it though! Happy BBQing my man
@@ceedagee1276 I have used it with charcoal and wood chips a few times, but mostly I use a propane burner in the bottom drawer and pellet tubes with different types of pellets. Both ways have worked well for me, but I will say with the gas burner and the pellet tubes with pellets doesn’t give me as many problems. Thanks for checking it out.
Wow! Nice video Joe.I really like it. Ismat from Bangladesh.
@@IsmatsCuisine thank you, it makes a great shelter to stay in while I build my cabin.
Charcoil only
@@dondiesel1100 not sure what you meant by charcoal only. I have used charcoal on it. I have used hardwoods on it and I also have used gas with pellet tubes that work very well. but with the design, you could use any of these methods without problem. Thank you for checking it out.
Can I hold the whip ? Lol
@@michaelburns9172 I already have somebody that will do that. She’s at home quilting right now lol

@@jefflocke9029 thank you Jeff, I watched a lot of videos from different guys making these also but I wanted to build something that had more than one purpose. This one fits the bill. I hope you enjoy using it at your new place.
Nice project Joe. That will be a nice place to stay while you build your cabin. Todd from da U.P.
@@FordDude66 thanks, Todd, it does make a comfy little mouse and bug free place to sleep while I work on this new cabin I’ll be up here through the end of next week putting in the foundation and floor system and trimming out a few trees.
I bet that it was not an easy decision to decide to build a new cabin and not rebuild the old one. But I believe that you both will be much happier with the new cabin. Plus the old cabin will make a great tool shed. I'm excited about the new build! Todd from da U.P.
@@FordDude66 well thank you Todd. I am actually at Menards right now picking up my foundation and floor package getting half of it today and I got to come back up tomorrow and get the other half not enough room on my trailer. This will be a working week for me, lol but I’m looking forward to building it and filming it. Talk to you later have a great Fourth of July.
My dad and I both have the same rifle and both have/had issues with the LC4x32 scope. He had the same adjustment problem you had and he contacted Gamo support. They sent him the 3x9 scope with the one piece mount and it's been fine since. When I mounted the 4x32, the end of the barrel filled up the bottom 3rd of the field of view (yes, it was mounted properly). I test fired anyway and it was high by over a foot as expected. I contacted Gamo and they are sending me the same setup. Crossing my fingers it does the trick! If anyone experiences the same problem with the included scope, I suggest emailing their support first to try resolving the issue at no cost. I can update this once I receive the scope to confirm whether it worked for me as well.
I have talked to quite a few people since I’ve put the video up and I’m surprised by how many have had some kind of issue with the scope, but said the gun was fantastic. I do know after I change scopes. I have not had any problem at all.with as many problems as I’ve heard about with that scope, I think a good idea would be for them to put a different one on with the package that doesn’t have as many problems. Thanks for the comment.
Nie video! Anyone know why my 20 ga won't extract a chambered shell unless it's fired?
There are a few reasons that could cause something like that. A worn extractor, dirt behind the extractor, a broken extractor spring without pulling it apart and looking at it it would be hard to tell. But that’s a good starting point.
