Fun fact: Blaze King originates from my hometown of Penticton, BC.🇨🇦 Factory is still producing trusted products. 👍
awesome!
I can better that one... In the late 70's I was at my EX father in Laws house.. One of his neighbors was there talking to him about his new business.. He was building wood stoves and fhe said there will be one in Every home.... His name was Bobby Fisher........ Fishers wood stoves and the rest is history......
Nice, I'm from Kelowna, cheers!
Fun fact: I was searching king of blazing and somehow ended up here and can’t stop watching
They are good, I have an Elmira from Ontario, I call a close second in their day , 20 years still going strong
Not many things say home like a fire in the hearth! Love it!
I've had a wood stove for over 20 years and always made sure I had the lit wood stove door shut before leaving the room because of a chance of sparks coming out of the stove that would start a fire. I've put a slab of slate on floor first before putting stove in. Some people put bricks on floor and walls where the stove is. Always started the fire with matches and never had a problem. I wouldn't chance it with your style of lighting a fire. Nice wood stove 👍 I had an Alagash stove that was made in Connecticut with 1/4 inch steel plate. Had it back in the 80's. Still working. 😊
I thought same thing one spark and house goes up in flames
I want to reiterate, he should put down some kind of stone hearth pad.
dude this house build is awesome man, i hate to say it, but im jealous. your living the dream man
That's going to be a sweet home, make sure you sign a prenup before you get married, I watched my brother lose half his stuff, including things from his deceased father.
That type of stove pipe cap,plugs up real easy.You'll be able to tell when it happens.And it will,I changed mine to a different style.I have been burning wood for my sole heat for 45 years.
Not sure I’ve ever really been as excited for someone to light their fireplace as I was for you sir. Blessed to have such a cozy vision and see come to light 🔥
Well done all around Timmy! It's so satisfying for the soul to get that wood stove fired up for the first time! The joy lies deep in the recesses of our dna, and I hope we humans never lose that connection!❤
What a beautiful wood stove! 😊
Go big or go home not every one gets to have there dream come true awlsome very nice ! great job
I use an old blaze king that used to heat my parents home when I was growing up. 12 to 14 hour burns without even trying and toasty warm. Got 23 hours the other day.
What a great feeling to have the place water tight and the fire place in and an excellent pad to hang out in. 👍🎉
Sure is!
I will be in school sadly I was hoping the stream was later the afternoon but i will watch the replay of it on the bus home. Have fun everyone and be safe
As a carpenter who also has lived in two houses that I completely gutted and remodeled, I understand the feeling of that first creature comfort of homeliness. I've made fire! Those windows are no joke too 👌
Came for the truck adventures, but learned a little bit more about house building than I would ever have thought. I'm inordinately proud of the wood stove working for some reason. Been catching up on previous videos, so I'm not deprived of truck life :)
Wow wow wow I missed the live but its ok. Im so happy you fired up the stove for us 😊. Nice 👍 im so happy for you 😄😊
Coolest set up I’ve ever seen. Not even comparable to any other truck/van campers I’ve seen on TH-cam. You have a beautiful mobile log cabin. So awesome!
It's a house bro
🤔🙄Ummm............this cabin doesnt have wheels on it, it's firmly and permanently planted on concrete.
@@HipHopCantSaveMe and it’s still on a truck? And still mobile? You guys are one stick short of retarded or what?
I love to hear those magic words fire -it -up.
I really love your videos! I don't go one day without watching them!
I'm so happy for you Timmy! I'm scared of heights so this video made me nervous, But once you started the fire I was fine lol Your a hard worker and deserve everything you have. Be safe my friend
Perfect wood stove..heat on the house just perfect
Great Job on getting help to installed ur stove pipes. don't forget ur keys on the uper deck door.
Another milestone ! 👍🥳👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Timmy, you impress me. You are not afraid of hard work, and you have a great work ethic!
From Stan in Wichita Kansas.
Awesome touch with the stove. I don't know how you're not scared of heights. I kept getting nervous when you and your friend were on the top deck. Be safe! 😊
Gonna be beautiful once you are done. The view is amazing
Looking forward to this one too!
Fire in the Hole! Longtime coming, the first fire. Great milestone!
Place is going to be beautiful. You might as well buy that boom lift now. Lol
The excitement in your voice about the fire was so awesome especially since I get like that too.
haha
New to your channel and beyond happy I found it! Awesome stuff
Timmy I love the view from the roof deck. I am addicted to mountains and their view.
yup it's AWESOME up there, video doesn't do it justice
Nice stove that will keep the house nice and warm and thanks for sharing big hugs from MN
Pretty crazy youre 1 dizzy spell from early retirement. That close to a very high roof ledge without strapped is insane lol
Congratulations on your cool wood heater!! I’m enjoying so much following along on all your doing. Happy New Year!😁
Very proud of you Timmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmeh !
Can't say but One thing about this I love it 👍👍
Congratulations little by little that crib will be complete
Wood stove it is the nicest way to keep your House warm ;) Great movie as usual;), Thanks. Cheers from Poland
Thanks:)
Comfy cozy! So glad that the fireplace install went so smoothly & no glitches!
Your home will be so cozy!! 😊
RE starting fires in wood stove. One thing I've done for years (and learned from my Dad who still does it). He uses sawdust shavings but I use white pine animal bedding soaked in diesel. I keep it in a small box nearby and a very small amount on some half ass kindling and send it with a torch .. fire going in 30 seconds. I know you already use a torch, but all you have to do is hit any area of it with a flame and then walk away. Makes it so quick and also keeps your kindling making time down as well, especially in dryer climates where you have dry wood.
Wow, that is looking awesome Tim, a cozy room with a fire stove to relax. Your cabin mansion is gradually coming together nicely!
Congratulations! Another milestone on the build! Can't wait to see what comes next! Living the dream! Your place is going to be stunning ...in fact, it already is!
Thanks!
Are you gonna get a starlink setup for your house? I mean you got full coverage all over alaska with it. @@TruckHouseLife
It is beautiful!! You picked the perfect location for the wood stove!
Instead of cable railing in the loft, do netting over the open space so you can lay out on the netting above the fire place and read a book. (Cover fireplace pipe with protective shield so you don’t lay up on it) 🔥
Wow, that is so awesome! Congratulations! You did it. I can only imagine how you feel. Your place is gonna look so sweet once youve done the inside. Lovin your videos.
Man, U are truly Blessed. Thanks for your videos.
Thank u for watching:)
Beautiful 👍
That place is gonna be beautiful!! Can’t wait to watch ya finish it
Ordered this same stove for my cabin in the same finish. Beautiful, I hope the enamel holds up over the years to come!
Wow, that stove is amazing. We burn a wood stove for heat all winter. We have electric heat and it is just way too expensive to run. Our stove is nothing compared to you stove. Your stove is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Dude, LOVE the chimney!!
Blaze king best of the best.
Can’t waite to see the final product when completely done. Gona be the best looking house around👍 A lot of hard work for sure❤️
nothing like a woodstove, great milestone great vid!!!
Beautiful wood stove! I can't wait for the total build to be done on the inside. It will be so sweet!!!! God bless you and yours from Yuma Arizona.
Nice looking house. As a wood stove owner I have to say leaving the wood stove door open unattended is recipe for a house fire, as you never know when a log will pop and throw embers.
Love the videos! Keep them coming!
Amazing, such a great standard of living, very impressed and envious.
What a beautiful stove, fire and view of the mountains and trees. Stayin tune for finishing of ceiling, walls and floors.
Good job from a French lives around Italian border (Alpes), bravo!
That is gonna be an awesome place once it is done! Congrats on getting the first fire going.
Thanks!
Not to complain but I've been burning for 35 years. I never walk away and leave door open, just a habit. but you were right there. I have a Scott stove from North Idaho. Easy stove to light and burns all night. Yes Blaze King is the bomb.
Congratulations! Looks awesome!
That place is so cool! great job, im proud of you.
Loving the upper deck such a cool house in general.
I am glad I came upon your videos......a wonderful substitute for Myself Reliance who disappeared from the scene.
Number one the cameraman never dies, Timmy. Number two. If you don't hurry up and get those rails up, I'm going to have anxiety attack lol😂
OMG the first fire! I am so excited for you! Thanks Matt for being an awesome friend to Tim. This is an epic moment in the house build. Kick ass!
Dude this place looks sick! The wood stove and the spiral stair alone
Congrats! Nice stove!
your excited im excited
New to the channel watched a few good videos and the house vlogs came a long way for doing most of it yourself good job and great vlogs and vlogs in public real come natural great content
The wood stove is wonderful! “The hearth makes the home”, right? Congratulations ! I know you will enjoy many days (and nights) enjoying the crackling sound, the warmth and
the colorful light of the flames provided by your wood stove. Enjoy.😊
I find myself closing my eyes during this episode. The heights are just too much!
Timmy you have impressed us at every turn! I’ve been watching for years and even bought an OBS crew cab because of your channel. Now I guess I need a cabin. 😂
Love to see long/tall stove pipes in a house, all that warmth coming off of it instead of being wasted flowing in a short path outside.
Doing great. Love it
We have an earth stove been burning wood for about 25 years Have to say that ash cleaner is definitely must have in all wood stoves 😊
Looking awesome, man -so happy for you.
Awesome wood stove 👌👌👌👌
that is a beauty of a wood stove, nice work
Awesome video as always Timmy. Your cabin is so awesome congratulations on your brand new Blaze King wood stove a lot of warm fires to come in the cold Alaskan winters. Can't wait to see what other awesome plans you've got in mind for the rest of your cabin build.
I love the house updates keep up the amazing work
It's beeeeeutiful! 😍
another podcast guy building a log home in northern Minnesota ... has a wood stove with glass in the door - he uses the ashes from inside the stove to clean the inside glass .... surprisingly cleans it well with a paper towel!
Pretty cool! That’s gonna be a sweet looking home when you put the last picture frame up 🤙🏻
Congratulations! 🎉 Beautiful stove and there’s just something special and homey in seeing the flames through the glass door. What a red-letter day for you! ❤
Stunning
That's an awesome job as a beautiful fireplace
Tim you are going to love your stove. I have been using the same model for six years it's awesome . Good luck love all the content you give. Was in Gird wood in 2014 loved it.great town.
I have had a LOPI for over 20 years. 🥰
Wow amazing that wood stove is awesome and the view beautiful ❤great job my friend can’t wait till it’s all done. Looking forward to seeing your next video ❣️
FYI, with a good chimney fire that metalbestos pipe will be glowing neon orange, and that rubber roof seal will melt/burn.
I bought a Blaze King woodstove 12 years ago when we first moved up here; it has been our primary heat source since then. We average 4 cords of wood a season ( September to late March / early April) and also use it for cooking on as well. It is a catalytic model same as your stove. It is worth every penny spent on it. We have not had to replace the catalyst yet, but could use a new thermostat gage as the original one is worn out paint and corrosion. I have one heat driven fan on the top and it keeps our home warm even at -60 below zero ... once the catalyst is active and burning hot you will not see any smoke as it will all be steam coming out. I clean the chimney once every two years since there is virtually no creosote bypassed.
Another great video Tim. Thanks again for sharing.
We bought a Loper Woodstove. Huge firebox and big window. Love it
Nice! this one has a medium firebox but a 20 hour burn time:)
Beautiful! I can’t wait to see the finishing of your home❤ Also I tried the peanut butter cereal and LOVE it. Thanks for sharing❤
Your house is sweet man, and the view..amazing!
Congratulations 💯💯💯 that was an achievement that you have worked for
