The STAIRS Are Almost DONE / Off Grid LOG CABIN Building (S3 Ep19)

- After 3 years I finally have the stairs in my log cabin to go from the first to the second floor and I don't need the ladder anymore. After the fall I took I really could wait to finish the stairs. It took me a lot of work and many tries to fit perfectly the beams on which the stairs are mounted. I also had to lower the landing of the stairs otherwise I would always hit my head against the second floor joist. At first I though to just bend every time to avoid hitting it, but then a friend came by and told me to lower it right aways to not regret in later and he also came to help me do it. The purpose of that middle platform is to reduce the steepness of the stairs. For sure it was one of the more challenging but very rewarding builds in the end.
Thank you for watching!

Perfect timing to relax on Saturday morning breakfast.
😂👍
Wow im from indonesia, in my position now is night at 21.29pm
here its 17:23
Its 06:16 AM here. Just about finish my breakfast.
I have been watching since he cut the first tree. He shows when he makes a correction or a mistake, and that is probably why I enjoy watching this so much. I always do it right, because I always do it twice...
He always overcomes any problem and his hard work always pays off.
Also its fun to see his family and friends helping out, just a great channel. THANK YOU!
I have, too. I watched him build his tree cabin 4 years ago or more
I live on a homestead where development took 10 years, and looked at other You Tube vides for ideas, most of which are completely phony for us real alpha men, and NIK's Channel surpasses them all.
The staircase is a thing of beauty. Incredible fit and wonderful material and design. Well done - love the videos. And watched it from the beginning.
Pohhhhh I see you walking with half trees .. hahahaha
Nice craftsmanship (y)
P
The whole family are Master Carpenter's , I enjoyed your many videos ...... Thank-you for the videos .......
You went from dragging the timbers to carrying them, and altho some material got removed, your body soon remembered its strength. I've always hated cutting stairs, my hats off too you for figuring it out. I guess the #1 thing most Americans forget to do is remove all the distractions so we can think more clearly. Ya know, someday long after we're dead and gone, someone will be asked who built this beautiful home and a descendant of yours will respond with a great amount of pride My granddaddy built it with his own two hands and a few tools.
I love how "family" your family is! Everyone doing this together! Sweet!
Yes, but let's not kid ourselves. He basically build this by himself! Not many people in the world can do this!
And without whining and making "plans" that get them off the hook.
He sure did build it mostly alone but didn't seem to be lacking for graciously offered help at critical times. Old school community, sans Internet and laziness.
I really wonder how many homes in the world are built with this kind of dedication and just plain hard work? I would say that you can count on one hand!!! Doing so very good Nic
Clever handy man
You're right that's some ass-busting work there.
And how lucky Nic is to have an able-bodied & skillful spouse that willingly helps & isn't afraid of a little dirt! Match made in heaven!
Oh and the kids help too & don't have to be roused out of bed at 11 o'clock. Now that's a family working together!

Your home is a thing of beauty Nic, I’ve watched from day one as you fell, cleaned and cut your logs. It’s been a journey. Your sheer craftsmanship and attention to detail has your name mentioned in many of the other videos I follow, you are much admired, for good reason. Your staircase is beautiful , to you and your family, all good wishes from Scotland, take care and stay safe 🌷😊👍
Afternoon Nik. Them stairs are a thing of beauty like a work of art and look a million $.
Impressive---both from an artistic viewpoint and from a family one. Sweet inclusion of the family. Looking good, Nik!
I look forward to every video you post! You're living my dream build! Keep up the good work!
Yes, I always can't wait for a new post to see Nic again.
Very good work ... I love watching the wife and kids work / play ... the dog too.
I love that amber glow of the house as the sun reflects off all that wood inside. It looks like a beautiful home. Each one of those steps is a unique piece of art/craftsmanship. Job well done.
I have followed you form the beginning, saw you putting in the concrete footings, thinking to myself, what is this crazy man up to.. The world is a little bit better having crazy people like you, Nik.. thank you
Just so beautiful. Lovely to see you family working together. Amazing home you are creating. A fabulous video thank you for creating and sharing👍👍
My pleasure to be able to share my work. Thank you for watching!
I have to say, Nik, just watching all the manual labor and hefting all those heavy logs was exhausting! Holy COW! Beautiful!!!
I describe you as a master craftsmen. Your work is beautiful. I wait patiently for your videos.
😍Simply beautiful😍! Your level of patience and determination blows me away Nik. You home is becoming a thing of great beauty and certainly enormous pride.
I've built decks before with steps pain in the a@s,couldn't even imagine trying to do it with half logs,my hats off to you Nik,looks ten times better than a normal staircase....Amazing....started watching you when you were cutting trees down you sure have come a long way!
I always support you in Korea.
🙏
Thank you very much for your support and for watching the video!
Thank you friend for sharing the cabin stair design and build update. Masterly!! 🤟
I like when a mate comes over to help with the build and blows a few bubbles at the camera for a good shot!!!!
Beautiful stairs Nik!!!! Zelo dobro!!!!!
nik those aren't just stairs, its art, a show piece for sure! and gorgeous art at that. there is no way anyone can come into your house and not be calm, relaxed, and happy with what you guys are crafting in this master piece. wow, just, wow!! thank you for sharing.
WOW AWESOME STAIRS WHAT A MASTER PIECE OF WORK NIK YOU TRULY A CRAFTS MAN AND YOU ARE BLESSED WITH SUCH SKILLS FROM THE CREATOR ABOVE MAY HE BLESS YOU
The best part of the whole video is to watch how you allow and encourage your kiddos to help. Watching your family work together warms my heart.
really? the boy is too young to work machines or do lifting and serious work, the girl and woman are ... well yeah, they can do small parts. To me it is more of a good example of a healthy way they seperate work: the man does the craftman, carpentry etc work and she supports the best she can.
Dont kid yourself, there wont be a woman out there able to do this sort of work. The most you will find is women building little garden houses and calling them log cabinets or even houses. A woman can create life, but we sustain it thru these impressive builds, like houses etc. sort of like> men make it so you survive and a womans touch is the comfort and synergy to the perfect life.
@@pingpong4811 I presume you are either Male or a BOT!!!!!!!
He's doing a beautiful job on the cabin,,,,👍
A true master craftsman. Can’t wait for your videos to see what’s next.
I really like the swing that you put up! Definetly fun. A lot of work to get those stairs done but so Worth it. Beautiful! Glad you had a filter mask on. It's so nice that your children and wife want to help. They are also a great clean up crew! I was thinking about a nice project to make for your good lady. . .a bread box and a cutting board! I figure you have already made a memory box for her. Wonderful to see everyone today!
Blessings on you and your family and friends and any wild life in your area!!🦋☀️🌾🐣🖖🦆
You have created the most beautiful staircase I have ever seen.
That really is the most wonderful bespoke staircase ever … congratulations on wonderful work .
I love how your dog isn't phased by anything! : )
Thank you, Nik, for sharing your videos. I know it take a while to edit them and then get the music right and downloaded to TH-cam. We enjoy going with you thru your adventure in this Cabin build. Glad to always see the family too!
The place is looking great buddy. You are a true craftsman.
Only found your site towards end of season 2, so watched the years view. My goodness I agree that you are a true craftsman. Remind me so much of my grandfather. He was always meticulous in everything he did and he mastered so many skills, of which he passed onto my brothers. Wish I’d taken more notice now, however I am a good painter and furniture restorer. Wonderful to see your children engaged in the build too.

Magnificent … so masterfully created !
🙏☘️😘
A Piece of art! Congratulation
Patience, Persistence, PERFECT! Majestic MASTERPIECE!
I have been looking forward to this episode for 2 years. They say the true test of a carpenter is to build a set of stairs. You nailed it my friend, they are unique and beautiful. You are unorthodox in the way you go about things and the tools you choose. It reminds me of my younger days just figuring things out as I went and it has triggered some very fond memories for me and I thank you very much for that. You have the most entertaining channel!
The stairs are beautiful and meticulously done as is the rest of your home. Love seeing your family assisting you build your beautiful home. I've watched since its inception and I think it's one of the most beautiful homes I've seen that was not done by a contractor. Your vision shows in the results you achieve. As always, I look forward to the next episode in your journey to complete your forever home. Well done, my friend. I'm proud to be part of your "framily". {a word that Melanie uses in the channel "Simple Life Reclaimed"}. Thank you for sharing your journey and I wish the best to you and your family.
You Sir, are an artist first and formost. Your brush is your saw and your canvas is your cabin. Beautiful work!
So beautiful 😍 Your attention to detail is impressive. All the best. It is really nice. Peace and good fortune and good health to you and your family.
Love the way you take pride in your work...thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
Love your dogs and family. Keep the fantastic stories/videos coming.
I’m so glad you’re fixing your regrets before you have one, it’s the best thing anyone could do for their forever lives in their homes, great job, beautiful work ethics abound.
Blood Sweat and Tears on a stairwell of Beauty. Outstanding work and video. Thanks for sharing. Old world construction brought to light in a different century. God bless be safe stay warm and healthy. Jim
So relaxing your videos are Nik, you are such a pleasure to watch, looking forward to your next one.
So much hard work and so worth it, that staircase is beautiful !!!😍😍😍
It is such a pleasure to watch you solve problems w/common sense rather than brute force. (Shifting the stringer over.) I've watched since the beginning and I am in awe of your craftsmanship. All the best for you and your family.
Those are some beauty stairs there and especially the platform with the glass 👍👍
You are a master builder with the things that mother nature gives you - unbelievable how you have almost single handedly built this amazing log home!! You and your family should be proud.
Never fail to disappoint. It's a rhythm and pace of building and life that is beautiful from start to getting near the finish.
You’re truly a blessed craft man Nic, not very many like you are around anymore… really love how the stringers and treads turn out respect for sharing , beautiful well done job
Marvellous video. Such a lovely icestorm interlude. Incredible hard work and lovely results. Thank you.
The stair's are absolutely gorgeous and another work of art. Fantastic JOB NIK and a labor of LOVE for sure. God's blessings to you ALL!!!
Awesome Nik, those stairs are so beautiful! I admire all of your efforts. Thank you for all of your videos. It has been a fun journey watching you build your cabin.
Hey Nik I’ve never seen anything like this before and I just love it. Thank you so much for sharing this awesome video! ✅✅✅🤩🤩🤩👏👏👏💯💯💯
You have committed an incredible amount of work, artistry and craftsmanship into building your staircase. Tremendous beauty foe decades yet to come and a true family heirloom. Wishing you and your family a blessed spring season filled with gentle weather and restful evenings. Peace brother
Wha a Masterfully Craftsman you are! Cannot thank you enough for allowing us to share your journey.

I'm here in Brazil enjoying your wonderful work. What a pleasure it is to build a work of art like this house with your own hands! Congratulations Nik!!!
watching you configure the angles for each step and prepare the logs is so relaxing
Wow such a beautiful staircase!
My mom,97 years old, and i have watched your progress and we are amazed at your talents. The stairs and your log cabin are absolutely beautiful ! We saw this video last night.
As if I wasn’t impressed already by how tightly your walls fit, you create this work of art of a staircase and landing. So beautiful using the tree base. I can hardly wait to see what’s next!
I bet that triple layer hardened glass has cost an arm and a leg. That had to be made to order by a firm specializing in that sort of thing.
Absolutely beautiful! Those steps ...WOW!
And the girl’s hair cut is very cute in her❤️
I have followed many off grid projects and this one just stands out to be the best of them all. The attention to detail that you have thrown into this is just amazing.
Love your vision for the cabin and the results are stunning !
Sun light coming thru the windows was just awesome in the cabin! Love that glass landing to. Your such a craftsman Nik!
Your technique of sculpting raw edges and knots is truly done with an artists eyes and hands.
oglądam od początku ,opanowanie , precyzja , cisza, dokładność - jesteś niesamowity .
Glad the family gets involved,awesome work.
The stairs are really good and the physical ability of his wife is also amazing 👍
The staircase is magnificent. The work of a true artist

Love watching your dedication and progress! Beautiful space you are building for your family! 🤌🏼🤌🏼
Fabulous job Nic! I enjoy building things with wood and you inspire me to do more with every video you post. Great to see your family working with you, especially the kids. So many kids today seem to be allergic to working and helping out. But, you are doing it right, teaching them to be good workers and self sufficient. You should be very proud.
Nik, must be so satisfying to get this cabin to this point. Beautiful job. You are a great craftsman and family man to boot:). How you got those stair stringers to fit so perfectly and have the treads be level is beyond me!!!
It is the most beatiful and artistic staircase I have ever seen! Many homeowners would probably be willing to pay large sums for you to install such a staircase in their home. Wow...
Many love from Sweden!
I'm guessing it's beautifully warm in there with that incredible stove!? This is something else. Love it.
Thanks for another excellent and very enjoyable video. It is great to see you all working together.
Which reminds me, I really should get my finger out and fix that squeaky floorboard that has been driving me mad (for 17 years)...
Nik, thank you for such inspiration and gratification watching your genuine care in making probably the best built cabin in this world! Your precise workmanship can only be watched but rarely duplicated on the scale that you do things. Thank you for sharing this amazing journey and please continue these wonderful films. Take care, and best wishes always.
Absolutely beautiful staircase, I know you must be proud of your work.
The wait was worth it! Now we see how the steps work! Great idea, would never have guessed! LOve all of the help your getting around there today!! That grin on your face is as wide as the steps! Nice work! From Helena Montana
So relaxing to watch this. What a beautiful home this will be. So much detail is mesmerizing!! Absolutely love this!!!
The whole house will be like a work of art! Fantastic fun to follow this on its way to completion! Can't wait for the next opportunity!
Amazing - you, your family, your home, these stairs, the camera work, the scenery - amazing!! God bless you and your family ❤️
Nick, your hard work started paying off. Every day you getting closer from finish. Yeah, it may look to some viewers insane work since you lifting these big logs again and again to make sure they fit perfectly. It your determination to build something you and your family will enjoy and cherish for the rest of your life. Keep the good work. Best of luck to you to the end.
Hermosa escalera!! Nunca vi un descanso de escalera como ese. Muy bello.
I wanted to come through the screen to help with that first log coming through the front door. I like your grit and determination.
Beautiful job. Your friend was absolutely right about lowering the end and adding the middle platform so that you won't have to duck in order not to hit your head. I know I had a house with that issue. Great job and determination. It's very nice to see your wife and children involved. It's a positive experience they will never forget.
I.cannot put into words how amazing your cabin is. I've been watching since you began building.
This cabin is AMAZING. But I really think what sets your cabin apart from all of the others is all the love you put into the build for your family.
Thank you so much for letting all of us enjoy watching your dream come true
it is almost like music to see him measuring things here and there and heavy gentle lifting now and then. it is a skill i could never hope to come close much less to use but it is still a joy learning how he does it.
Nik, you don’t give up, when it doesn’t fit the first, second, third, etc. you just get it right with hard heavy work. You are the man. Great family. You should be livable in you log home this spring or early summer. Great job 👏.when you get time to read or your children, you can get my book dries on Amazon, and in kindle. God Bless. The Bear 🐻 from 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for making this video and sharing your experience with us.
Have been looking forward to the stair build. Amazing craftsmanship! Thank you for posting.
Thanks for letting us see another great addition to the house. Looks beautiful and wonder how the transition to the upper floor is going to all tie together. How ever you do it I am sure it will be beautiful.
Outstanding! Incredible staircase. Bravo 🙌
Very nice to see some progress from Mister Perfect, from all those channels I follow on TH-cam you are a big No 1...together with your wife and children who we see growing up and getting older...🥰... Very Nice....👊
The stairs are absolutely beautiful. Great job good Sir.
Nik! It is just perfect! No other ways to describe it…..
