Cabin for Sale
We checked out a cabin that's for sale near us. It needs a lot of work. 20 years ago a tree fell on the roof and rain and snow have been coming inside ever since. You won't beleive the mess we found inside. If we buy it we will take it down to the wall studs and start fresh.
What do you think ? Should we do it ?

Jim and Brian install new DuraVent triple wall stove pipe at the Off Grid Cabin. The wood burning stove is ready to go this next fall/winter. We used the DuraPlus through the wall kit and transitioned to Dura Black pipe on the inside to the stove.

Abandoned off-grid property. You won't believe what we found !
มุมมอง 4.9K3 ปีที่แล้ว
We hiked into an Abandoned Property and found the strangest concrete structure in the middle of nowhere. Why was it built ? Who built it ? How did they do it? Was it built by Aliens ? It's not an abandoned mansion but it was pretty cool to find this. Maybe it's a Earthship. Leave your comment below and tell me what you think it was.

Off-Grid Bunkhouse -Tiny cabin. Episode #8
มุมมอง 3.2K3 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a video walk through of "The Bunkhouse" A small shed my brother converted into a small cabin next to the main cabin just 20 ft away. Some call it a Tiny House but it's more of a place to sleep. No bathroom or kitchen. The teenagers love to sleep in the bunkhouse. It's the cool place to stay. Western Cowboy decor inside is really nice and ties into the main cabin. Want to see more ? Chec...

    You are a wonderful son with a beautiful wonderful mother. I love how your whole family Has honored her and allowed her life to be as it should be with her grandchildren sitting at her 'feet! She is truly honored as the matriarch of her family. You are doing a great Thing for your children also. This is what building a strong family means. I also honor the daughter in laws for being willing To do this. It reminds me of the story in the bible of Ruth and Naomi! The children's lives will be greatly enriched. They will be much better well rounded children and adults because of it God bless you all!

    I love your cabin build. It truly is a labor of love and it shows. I especially liked the water valve handle turned into a light switch. That's so cool. You mentioned how much power your microwave uses. After having a microwave in our home for years we realized we hardly ever use it. So, when we set up our little off grid cabin, we decided we didn't need a microwave.

    Mini (Winter) Solar Tip: You can steplessly dim down a Beuler and all other hungry electricity consumers with a 5000W dimmer (EUR 7). I run 5 dimmers in parallel on an 850W inverter. Kettle 2.2KW at 150W runs 12 hours a day, so the water is always hot. The room is also nicely heated. 2.5KW washing machine runs in parallel with dimmed to 200...400W. Iron, dishwasher, oven, electric heater, coffee machine, all internal heating are throttled with me. Videos about it on my channel th-cam.com/video/eC2olbCBhh0/w-d-xo.html The inverter stays cool, quiet and the MOSFETs remain intact because extreme current peaks no longer arrive at the inverter. Now every Mini PV Inverter is enough to sell large devices...

    So how we in the industry would produce such a product would be with a gunite spray on concrete. In the ground pools are gunite they spray it they can spray it around corners it is seamless and generally 5,000 lb test brakes. The outbuilding was built to hold something in that couldn't be removed because it was too big ergo the flimsy roof. The thing they didn't want taken out of there was the gunite pump machine and all the other machines it takes to maintain it. Looks to me like some concrete guy had way too much time and money on his hands. Probably blew out his back hauling that damn hoes around and gave up on the project.

    I have to say I compliment you on your building and not clear cutting every tree down, it makes the cabin look like it’s part of the forest! 🤙 As far as power goes, you could get one of those big Bluetti solar generators and just hook up solar panels to it, replacing the noisy gas generator.
