  • I was finally able to burn some brush at our off grid homestead. I also ran wire in the new addition, and have the walls insulated. Won’t be long and it will be finished. Thanks for watching!

    You are quite a kid, Kyle. Much respect for your work ethic. I'm 71 and admire the effort you put into providing for your family. Keep it up and you will prosper. Like the wife too for supporting your plans!

    Oh to be 40 years younger (and everything at those prices 40 years ago!!!). Must be a major blessing to utilize such a valuable resource as TH-cam for income and referencing! Keep up the great work!

    I think you should write a book w pictures on how you build a cabin. You definitely know how to. From picking out the trees to stripping the bark, etc.

  • @florianleinfelder
    @florianleinfelder 5 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

    Love the idea of the detailed explanation. Two things I‘d especially appreciate in this is one whole video just on foundation and how to choose the right one. This depends on the type of ground you have on your build site and stuff and I haven‘t found good explanations on this. The second one is the proper terms being used in construction so one could search for more details on the math and statistics for it. Thank you for your cool videos, you make it look very easy 😅

    Been there done that, have the t-shirt. Living off grid is more a frame of mind than anything else. We did it. My nephew and his wife did it, then came to the city wanting everything. Now they are doing it again. This time forever I believe. Sold their house and bought 10 acres in the boonies, paid for the land and camper, and starting the house. Gets in your blood after a while. There are so many gadgets and items now days it makes sense to do it off grid. Minnesota is not where I'd do it, but to each their own. First #2 things that you cannot do without are a Wood burning cookstove and a propane range with oven. After that comes the propane instant hot water heater and wall unit propane heater. So, you have all bases covered as far as cooking and heat, and showers and bath's. We had a cistern and septic tank put in as well later on, both worth their money times 10x. Toilets do not need electricity just water. And when the wifey is happy, you'll be happy. During the winters we used kerosene lanterns for light and heat. You'll be amazed how much heat they throw, as well as light. Another thing that really saved us was making shutters and a mud room on the front and back doors. Difference between night and day as far as heat loss. And retaining heat. We also invested in #2 trail cameras with phone service. We had both camouflaged one by the gate in and out. And the other watching the entire house from a tree 12 feet up. We could monitor them day or night and they would alert us at any trip. Well worth the money as well. And an outside dog. After 5 years we sold it making more money than we ever could of ever imagined. It was listed as possible sale and never was even listed really. They made us an offer we could not refuse. And just like that it was done. I liked subbed and notified. Building an off-grid house or cabin things have to be done completely different than regular stick frame homes. Just little things make huge differences. By the time I see someone's channel it's too late they have already built them. Advice ask away I'm sure I can help. Peace.

    Kyle, I think that's a great idea a step-by-step build. And make your videos 30 minutes to maybe 38 minutes long . I enjoy watching longer videos. Especially the kind you produce. With a baby on the way, you should probably consider some kind of a bunker storm shelter into the ground. Also, on your homestead. Keep up the great work I enjoy every minute.

    It would be great to have a series of videos on how to build a cabin, from start to finish, with all the details on costs and more!! As you said, on TH-cam there isn't much apart from some vague video where you have to figure out yourself. As a newbie into homesteading it would be really really valuable! 👌🏻

    Wow Kyle thanks very much- looking forward to the detailed overview of how you build things on your video series
    Appreciate the opportunity and your community mindedness in which like-minded people who don't have construction experience can try to expand their territory
    without just being stuck in an apartment
    that.would really help a lot of us who look at your channel and realize it's way past time to get out of the city
    and again thank you for your faith to outreach and expand your territory
    it's been an inspiration to others and an encouragement to be watching your Channel
