Wow! 40+K subs! Many of us have been following Shawn since he started. The progress he has made, all the struggles and glories along the way..I wait impatiently each week LOL.. Your doing great Shawn, we are all so proud of you. Seeing windows in the new cabin, wow from where you started out. Keep doing what your doing, its a big part of my week.
Shawn, I am just going to keep playing your videos on a loop so you get the TH-cam compensation this channel so rightly deserves. As usual, I am riveted. your content gets better with each new video!
I didn’t want this video to end. So many things happening. I hope you have a much deserved fun time with your friends Shawn. Looking forward to your next episode. Cheers from Australia. 👍🏻🇦🇺
@@meturns4666 You guys have said exactly what I was thinking, this is my most looked forward to video every week now, it must be a Melbourne or Aussie thing 😊.
the hardest working man on YT right now. another week of highs and lows and you're taking it all in stride. your remark about your lack of "creative editing" is why all of us continue to follow along. it was also good fortune to find the GoPro. have a great week w/ your friends
Shawn you are an absolute machine. You take all the downs in your stride, never letting them take you down & you relish all the ups with gusto. We have such admiration for you. Keep up the great content. All the best from Perth Western Australia.
I have nearly nothing in common with you. I am a woman. I am almost 71 years old. I know absolutely nothing about building. I don't like extremely cold weather. I live in the suburbs of a large city. I do however have a second home, A small cabin in the Sierra Nevada mountains. I too love the forests! Also love your videos!
Its funny actually. My mother showed me this channel too. Haha. She is similar to you in what you have said. But no second home. She always did want a cabin though.
In your next video please include a bit about your food storage like for the eggs, meat and cold stuff! And where are the bears with all that good cooking?? Your videos give me respite from the ongoing summer swampy heat and worrying about hurricanes forming in the gulf…I appreciate you keeping it real too. This channel is really taking off now and well deserved! 🙌🏻
As a pilot, may I suggest: Next time you contact the helicopter pilot.... Ask him if he has a light load going north, if he would bring your sawmill.... 3000 lbs is nothing for that Bell Ranger Jet helicopter... Tell him where it is. or you meet him next time you go to town... two of you make arrangements.... It would be wonderful to see him sit it down on a freshly cleared spot, right where you want it to be..... Im sure the two of you could come to an agreement.... Best of luck.... LA in Tampa
There's a lot of folk all around the world very relieved to see this episode Shawn, will watch in the morning (UK time although currently in Portugal!)
I always wanted to homestead, now 70 year old granny, but husband wouldn't leave the city. So at 65 moved north, bought a cottage on a lake, as close as I can get to homesteading! Ive renovated it. And the bears and deer roam my property. Bought a flat bottom boat for fishing and a camper set up for off grid, power bank, suitcase solar panels. Love it! Even if I only get a few years, I've come close to fulfilling a dream! Good luck to you!
You do a lot of the same things most of us do-it-yourselfers do, learning from trial and error. I've learned a lot from many people and a lot from my own mistakes. Your cabin is turning out awesome, and I've picked up a few things from you as I start on my own build. I enjoy the videos, and keep up the good work.
Very soon Shawn will not be surviving but thriving on TH-cam income! When you have something genuine and honest going on TH-cam, the viewers always reward you with increasing views and subs every next day! Well done Shawn!
@@michaelosmon I am a top fan on a channel I watch from willow Alaska I have on Shawn’s channel since day one he is a true Canadian love his channel that’s maybe why I support him I love what he is doing with his life if I could help him money Wise I would but I am retired he is going up fast on his channel I am glad for him.❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
@@mikemckinley1031 yes sir. Shawn is a great youtuber and you are a great commenter. i was referring to your comment on the community tab, i could do us all a favor and be more clear with my comments
Try raising your roof Joist on you're porch higher on to you're main roof about 16-18 Inch's and then you can raise you outside porch wall about 6 Inch's higher. Good luck bro and keep on keeping on
Top man Shawn. Great to see the progress against all the odds ! Make sure your buddies earn their keep when they come to visit. I’m sure there’s 101 things they can help you with. This channel is the highlight of my week. Many thanks for sharing 👍👍
I have watched an absolute ton of channels on this sort of subject. The vast majority don't make it. You are authentic and that is what makes it so compelling. Keep going the way you are going. I actually pay attention to the day of the week regarding when to expect one of your videos. That has never happened with another channel.
I like the “do it alone” and “do without” and all the challenges you face as a result & how you make decisions and move on. That’s what makes this channel interesting to me. It wouldn’t be so if you had a bunch of people there helping you & slapping it all together. Struggles build character. Thanks for the video.
Shaun, your video's are excellent for the very reason that you show your mistakes, setbacks and lay it all out exactly how it is. You are doing brilliantly, persevering through all the ups and downs which is what it is all about. It would be great to see you find a lady to share the experience with you and share the vision and the work. Just saying :).
Hi Shawn, I watch a series called Ringworm. He's a fellow living in the woods and building all sorts of off grid buildings using a chain saw and a small mill. He's just done a video detailing the tools he uses and it's very informative and you might get some ideas for a chain saw mill and other associated equipment. I enjoy each and every episode. Keep them coming. Cheers.
Seeing the amount of work you put into just moving your lumber pile, I admire your work ethic, I also understand your desire to just document your journey living in the wilderness, but never be ashamed to ask for help. I feel you have a whole new family out here just wishing you well. A good week, well done, but I think the mail slot is a nice touch .
Why don’t you just move the lean to trusses further up the roof then you won’t have to trim down the wall height, just a thought Shawn! Great work on the new cabin and glad you found your GoPro! Have fun with your visitors this week!
So glad to see this posted! You’re an incredible builder. Keep in mind how long it took you to become the builder you are! It will take time to become a videographer too. So far so good. Love your work.
@@cabinriveroutdoors It is all good brother, I am proud of what you're doing and Watching and liking your content which is awesome, I have not missed a video. I want to do something similar but just had a son. I want to build an off grid shop and house where I can build and be free of "normal life".
Keep going man don't get demoralized don't let it get you down Shawn I think if people want to help you it would be okay if they're helping you with material type of stuff that you need to sustain the lifestyle that you've chosen you're still the one doing the work you're still the one struggling You're still The One smacking your finger with the hammer I don't know it's just a thought but we're rooting for you and we're praying for you man
100% this. A man who has friends is truly a rich man. Consider taking the offer of help to get your building materials up to the cabin. Amazing channel. I look forward to your videos every week.
Pine pitch reson mixed with wood ashes make a good glue. You need can to heat the reson up in then mix the wood ashes to a thick gooey glob, let cool to the touch and apply to the crack in the transom. It might do the trick in slowing the leak some.
You’ve come a long way with your cabin and putting it together with scraps and what you have is the way struggles are but personally I think you’re doing a great job. Have it all your way without worrying about others opinions is the way it should be because this is yours.
It seems like a week of frustration Shawn. Authentic. Every day can’t be roses. I really appreciate you showing the moments of struggle and in turn sharing your realistic and really chill way of handling yourself. I’m so glad you found the grow pro. I giggled because I “lose” things all the time just like that. Nothing is really lost, I just forgot where I set it down. 😂 One more thing, we have a place here called the Repurpose Project. My son and I go all the time, looking to find project supplies. This not only saves money and the planet, it helps add uniqueness to whatever we are doing. That’s a really long way for me to say I love the mail slot in the door. Your doing great. Have a great week with your friends.
At the end of the video you were talking about the porch roof,to get more of a pitch,instead of lowering the front wall,tie the rafters further back on the main roof,that will give you a greater pitch...😊
If your channel blesses you with the help from people with tools, food, money, etc. accept it! That is an important part of these videos. It makes me excited when I see you receiving goods in the mail that will help you. ❤
I love this video. What great intuitiveness. This is what living off grid looks like. You need to be strong minded and willing to make do and you do it all. Thank you. Hello from Michigan, be careful, stay safe and God bless.
Ahh. , Saturday morning , hot coffee and my favourite youtuber , what an awesome start to the weekend, thanks Shawn great to see your well .cheers mate from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
Ha! I love it -- the Make Do Cabin and a door with a mail slot -- genius....and a great kernal of an idea for any other buildings you might want to put up!!
Keeping it real! Shawn is so awesome. Don't change. This is a real channel and you can see how hard it can be. I really like how personal he makes it from telling us his financial difficulties to loneliness to every day life. Binge watched every episode to catch up 😂. Watching from New Zealand 🇳🇿
If you have water in boat just pull the plug while you are running on plane the water will drain out. I did it all the time when I had a John boat just remember to put it back in before you stop. Really enjoy the content.
That make-do soup looked good and healthy! I get the integrity that you're speaking of on wanting to show mistakes, and also on wanting to do it on your own. Onward and upwards :).
Hi Shawn, you’re working incredibly hard and I’ve noticed that you’ve lost quite a bit of weight. I recommend that you increase your dietary intake and the amount of calories you’re getting. Alongside physical risks, low weight causes low mood, irritability/frustration and difficulties concentrating because your brain goes into survival mode. Please look after yourself and feed yourself some high calorie, high protein meals. I absolutely love your videos and can’t get enough of them. The cabin is shaping up nicely, well done!!! Sending lots of love from Scotland ❤
Your videos are so authentic and from the heart. It's admirable that you sincerely want to show the real deal in regards to what it is like to create a life in the wild, starting from scratch. Your perseverance, varied skills, calm demeanor and ability to be true to yourself is remarkable. No matter the mistakes, ups, or downs, we all support you. You do a bang-up job. Stay well. P.S. BTW Awesome healthy soup.
You are living my dream. Thank you for another amazing video. I’m steady looking out for my weekly dose of “It’ll-Do-Cabin Show. I thank you again. It’s coming along nicely. Till next week.
Your sheer strength and tenacity with dealing with the physicality of your building project, puts you well up there in the alpha male category. Not many of us in this modern world, are capable of what you are doing. My son in law is a lifelong man of the woods with all the skills and love of what you are doing. Hats off to you.
Solar Pro Tip: Tilt your solar panel to match the latitude that you are at! Flat solar is not using your solar efficiency. Let it face south, no need to move it around. Could solve some of your battery issues.
"...gawd-awful beard..."😅 Awesome the river came up. Your guests will be fine. I once visited a friend who was building his cabin and I slept on a stack of drywall for a bed!😅 But I had a door...and no bears! Love your videos.👍😎🇨🇦🙏🌲🌊
Hi, thanks for sharing all this stuff with us. I am really enjoying your journey. It appears that you are quite an advanced carpenter. Excellent work. I’m a retired pipe fitter so I appreciate good quality craftsmanship more than most. I hope your finances are improving you need dependable transportation. Are you going to winter over there at your cabin? I think that for you baring any catastrophies would find it exilerating. I’ve commented before, it doesn’t matter if you don’t remember me, but I want you to know that I look forward to every new vid.
I love at the 31:40 mark where you are ranting about the camera and you can see the fish feeding in the river above your head. Keep it up, you're doing great. Was getting anxious about you with the delay in posting. Probably due to technical issues but always worried about injury etc.
He can use it as... aircon or a mobile ring camera, many uses for the letter box😊 I admire his work, never seen anyone cut wood like he does, that takes skill. 🎉
CUT the button of Raftersand put on TOP of roof, . Start at the top of rafter and cut long angle to the pitch of roof, and leave the wall, you might get away with 10’, but 12’would be better. By continuing the roof with a slight difference in Pich will give you all kinds of DRY storage. Remember later down the road try to have 2 years of wood up for winter, so you will always hav a dry Years worth. Nice job buddy 👍👍👍🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🍀
So glad to know you are okay! Or at least okay enough to put out this week's video. And as always, another awesome one! You are definitely my favorite channel and such a breath of fresh air. Thank you!
Hey Shawn love your channel, I can see 100k subs in no time. Frustration, maintenance and breakdowns are the cost of doing what you love and we benefit from that. Hang in there buddy!
You are human and just you - you are doing so well - must be tough with all the problems that you have to overcome whilst just about everything is on camera.
Hey just so you know if you drive a boat with the plug out water will drain until you stop moving. It's useful knowledge if you ever start taking on water pull the plug while you're moving it will help you
I love it man! So cool! You work so hard at what you gotta do. It’s gotta be more rewarding than the rest of us that work so hard at a JOB and nobody really cares. Keep going man! It plants seeds for the rest of us, whether we ever do anything or not.
No, you just need longer rafters for the porch over hang. Go up on the. Cabin roof some, leave the outside porch wall height the way it is. That will give you a steeper roof pitch.
Don't worry Shawn there is nothing wrong with "make-do" doors, supplies or approaches to building your cabin. This coming from someone who has never attempted such a grand adventure but from someone who is more interested in the results and whether or not they work for you "at this time". There is nothing saying that you cannot rework or replace things in the future but that (at least for me) would be when I have the time and resources to make the improvements I want to make. Personally I think you are doing an absolutely amazing job with what you have to work with. Keep up the good fight and do not get discouraged or disheartened by the 0.01% naysayers. This is your experience and your TH-cam channel doing it your way. If others want to complain then maybe they should simply create their OWN TH-cam channel and do it "their way". Anyhow, love the build and hope you find your GoPro on the trails. Looking forward to many more videos to come! 👍😊👍
Wow! 40+K subs!
Many of us have been following Shawn since he started. The progress he has made, all the struggles and glories along the way..I wait impatiently each week LOL..
Your doing great Shawn, we are all so proud of you. Seeing windows in the new cabin, wow from where you started out. Keep doing what your doing, its a big part of my week.
@@wanderlore8875 yep I agree great to see progress through the struggles been here from the first upload and been hooked every since!!
Shawn, I am just going to keep playing your videos on a loop so you get the TH-cam compensation this channel so rightly deserves. As usual, I am riveted. your content gets better with each new video!
Yes that’s great! Go to his playlist and you can play all or live on the edge and hit the shuffle button 😂
Ive also heard it helps by not hitting the skip button on commercials. just what i heard not sure if it correct.
@@timbjork2098 yes that is correct watch those ads
@@timbjork2098id the ad is longer then 45 seconds after that hit the skip
@@timbjork2098the video earns money based on advertisement views. It’s not channel views, but ad views so if you want to help, let the ads play😁
I didn’t want this video to end. So many things happening. I hope you have a much deserved fun time with your friends Shawn. Looking forward to your next episode. Cheers from Australia. 👍🏻🇦🇺

Miss Libby , I feel the same way every week, but it's OK, I've got a good therapist helping me through the week. 😅😅😅 cheers from Melbourne.

Also watching every week from the Mallee Victoria Au .
I think it looks great

I have nearly nothing in common with you. I am a woman. I am almost 71 years old. I know absolutely nothing about building. I don't like extremely cold weather. I live in the suburbs of a large city. I do however have a second home, A small cabin in the Sierra Nevada mountains. I too love the forests! Also love your videos!
♥
Its funny actually. My mother showed me this channel too. Haha. She is similar to you in what you have said. But no second home. She always did want a cabin though.
In your next video please include a bit about your food storage like for the eggs, meat and cold stuff! And where are the bears with all that good cooking?? Your videos give me respite from the ongoing summer swampy heat and worrying about hurricanes forming in the gulf…I appreciate you keeping it real too. This channel is really taking off now and well deserved! 🙌🏻
All the hammering, power tools, generator, fires all deter any bears and animals.
This is my favourite channel atm I find myself waiting for the next episode. Keep it up dude loving the dream
As a pilot, may I suggest: Next time you contact the helicopter pilot.... Ask him if he has a light load going north, if he would bring your sawmill.... 3000 lbs is nothing for that Bell Ranger Jet helicopter... Tell him where it is. or you meet him next time you go to town... two of you make arrangements.... It would be wonderful to see him sit it down on a freshly cleared spot, right where you want it to be..... Im sure the two of you could come to an agreement.... Best of luck.... LA in Tampa
Even if he airlifts it in on 2 or more trips...... worth a try..... Best of luck.... LA
Ask, good luck 😊
There's a lot of folk all around the world very relieved to see this episode Shawn, will watch in the morning (UK time although currently in Portugal!)
😂😂, I even had someone comment on my last video asking if I could check up on him. I said, be patient 😁
@@deadpinecollectivegood that folk are looking out for each other...
I always wanted to homestead, now 70 year old granny, but husband wouldn't leave the city.
So at 65 moved north, bought a cottage on a lake, as close as I can get to homesteading! Ive renovated it. And the bears and deer roam my property. Bought a flat bottom boat for fishing and a camper set up for off grid, power bank, suitcase solar panels. Love it! Even if I only get a few years, I've come close to fulfilling a dream!
Good luck to you!

I follow lots of similar TH-cam channels but this one is amongst the top of my list. Keep up the good work and don’t burn yourself out. Cheers 🇨🇦
Closer to winter security...bit by bit. Friends will be a morale boost!

Glad you aren't paying attention to the few trolls Shawn. No TH-cam channel is without them. Sadly a sign of the times. Keep up the great work!

I thank you again. It’s coming along nicely. Till next week.
Yeah. Good to see you made it through another week 😊
Beautiful work ❤
As always Shawn, Great video, good luck, thank you!!!!
Your sheer strength and tenacity with dealing with the physicality of your building project, puts you well up there in the alpha male category. Not many of us in this modern world, are capable of what you are doing. My son in law is a lifelong man of the woods with all the skills and love of what you are doing. Hats off to you.
That's some pretty big loads Shawn ! nice getting all that up there in a couple trips 👍
Solar Pro Tip: Tilt your solar panel to match the latitude that you are at! Flat solar is not using your solar efficiency. Let it face south, no need to move it around. Could solve some of your battery issues.
"...gawd-awful beard..."😅 Awesome the river came up. Your guests will be fine. I once visited a friend who was building his cabin and I slept on a stack of drywall for a bed!😅 But I had a door...and no bears! Love your videos.👍😎🇨🇦🙏🌲🌊
Such a pretty cabin and your photography is exceptional. Thank you for posting your adventures.
I sure do love all those windows 😂😂. Make sure you check under the blue tarp for another surprise that might make a few of your viewers happy 😁👍🏼👍🏼
Hi, thanks for sharing all this stuff with us. I am really enjoying your journey. It appears that you are quite an advanced carpenter. Excellent work. I’m a retired pipe fitter so I appreciate good quality craftsmanship more than most. I hope your finances are improving you need dependable transportation. Are you going to winter over there at your cabin? I think that for you baring any catastrophies would find it exilerating. I’ve commented before, it doesn’t matter if you don’t remember me, but I want you to know that I look forward to every new vid.
I love at the 31:40 mark where you are ranting about the camera and you can see the fish feeding in the river above your head. Keep it up, you're doing great. Was getting anxious about you with the delay in posting. Probably due to technical issues but always worried about injury etc.
Cabin is rustic & beautiful❤
Door with a mail slot, nice! Now the Canada Post can deliver your mail via a moose!! 😁
😂😂
He can use it as... aircon or a mobile ring camera, many uses for the letter box😊
I admire his work, never seen anyone cut wood like he does, that takes skill. 🎉
CUT the button of Raftersand put on TOP of roof, . Start at the top of rafter and cut long angle to the pitch of roof, and leave the wall, you might get away with 10’, but 12’would be better. By continuing the roof with a slight difference in Pich will give you all kinds of DRY storage. Remember later down the road try to have 2 years of wood up for winter, so you will always hav a dry Years worth. Nice job buddy 👍👍👍🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🍀
Very entertaining! Just be extra careful, stay focus and don’t get hurt, take it nice and easy and enjoy every minute. Love from Puerto Rico
Been waiting for this one Thanks again Bro
So glad to know you are okay! Or at least okay enough to put out this week's video. And as always, another awesome one! You are definitely my favorite channel and such a breath of fresh air. Thank you!
Hey Shawn love your channel, I can see 100k subs in no time. Frustration, maintenance and breakdowns are the cost of doing what you love and we benefit from that. Hang in there buddy!
Shawn good seeing those windows go in a good week
Love your channel…..don’t let the 1% bug you..99% love you!
You are human and just you - you are doing so well - must be tough with all the problems that you have to overcome whilst just about everything is on camera.
Hey just so you know if you drive a boat with the plug out water will drain until you stop moving. It's useful knowledge if you ever start taking on water pull the plug while you're moving it will help you
I love it man! So cool! You work so hard at what you gotta do. It’s gotta be more rewarding than the rest of us that work so hard at a JOB and nobody really cares. Keep going man! It plants seeds for the rest of us, whether we ever do anything or not.
Was a great video brother, I'm the work with what you got type of guy also, nothing at all wrong with your videos
JB weld might work on the hole in the boat
I like the Friday videos! Thanks Shawn
No, you just need longer rafters for the porch over hang. Go up on the. Cabin roof some, leave the outside porch wall height the way it is. That will give you a steeper roof pitch.
Life is always trial and error that’s real life and living . With my ms and stroke i admire what you are doing and and encourages me to
Don't worry Shawn there is nothing wrong with "make-do" doors, supplies or approaches to building your cabin. This coming from someone who has never attempted such a grand adventure but from someone who is more interested in the results and whether or not they work for you "at this time". There is nothing saying that you cannot rework or replace things in the future but that (at least for me) would be when I have the time and resources to make the improvements I want to make. Personally I think you are doing an absolutely amazing job with what you have to work with. Keep up the good fight and do not get discouraged or disheartened by the 0.01% naysayers. This is your experience and your TH-cam channel doing it your way. If others want to complain then maybe they should simply create their OWN TH-cam channel and do it "their way". Anyhow, love the build and hope you find your GoPro on the trails. Looking forward to many more videos to come! 👍😊👍
Wishing you well each and every day! Be careful!
Nothing wrong with this video 🦘👍🇦🇺
