In this episode, we do another wall of mortar chinking, this time using a wire mesh to hold the mortar together. We then build a new set of front stairs off the south side of the porch that leads directly to the garden. We also increase our solar power capacity using the Jacker Explorer 2000 Plus. We finish the video by installing out bathtub, the drain, and the shower curtain.
Welcome to our channel! This Log Cabin Project is a dream that we have had for several years that we finally decided to make a reality. Our goal is to build a tiny log cabin from scratch using as much material from our land as possible. We are building it entirely using hand tools (no chainsaw!). This cabin will function fully off-grid and will be only accessible by foot. Subscribe to follow our journey!
We are learning a lot as we are doing (as always), so don't hesitate if you have any questions, it will be a pleasure to share tips and tricks, if possible.

If you would take a light brush across it when your done, it would take out the rest of the imperfections. I'm 30 + yr Mason, that's what we do when we lay stone.
You guys should actually talk to your viewers, this silence is mind numbing, I won’t be supporting your nonsense
😊
My❤❤❤
My late parents built a cabin many years ago, your journey reminds of those times when I was young!! Wonderful 😊
Wow, just wow! Look at what these amazing folks have accomplished all on their own. It's truly inspiring to see what can be achieved with passion, determination, and a little bit of elbow grease. Their remarkable work is a shining example that reminds us to never underestimate the power within ourselves to create something truly extraordinary❤😊
Yes and I have not watched all the videos don’t think I ever saw then he and power tools and just regular small hammers and no framing hammers.That bow saw sure looks like it cm in handy.
Amazing work guys and had to be in great shape when u started and then really good shape when you finished. Don’t think you have and problems heating and cooking with all those trees to use as firewood. Awesome going Jackery with solar panels.

Couldn’t be prouder if you were my own kids! Really excited to see you further develop this oasis you’re creating
That’s too kind!! Thank you :)
Very good work
Watch you and your wife build your cabin, it was nice to see you guys not put dead lines on yourselves.....no drama.
You are both very good at messaging, amazing job of sizing logs for the floor.
House went together with very little talking.
Very impressive, thanks for sharing, only one fear , putting plastic on the underside of the roof in winter will cause the house to sweet.
Moisture from our breath needs to get out, it may take a year or two before you notice that.
All in all very good workmanship
The cutest couple ever, patience and perseverance, My father was a General contractor so we’re my 4 Brothers, me being the girl, I worked on every job site, it was so rewarding and an absolute pleasure to get to work as a team with my family, I am so proud of you two, I know you have worked on other jobs as well, you just know way to much not to,, I’m 70 yrs now and I remember using all the same hand tools, really satisfying to watch you and brought back so many wonderful memories, God bless you both, keep up the great work, can’t weight to see the inside of your beautiful home
Hard work and patience has paid off. Enjoy your channel.
More and more luxuries with every passing week. You guys are making a very comfortable home. Thanks for the video.
Congratulations you two. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. It is a testament to you both that you decided to redo the chinking. This new application looks much better and will provide that protection and loss of heat in the winter. Working in northern Canada in bug season is really hard. I know, living in northern British Columbia, Late May and June was for determined heroes. It is a wonderful feeling building and learning as you go. My husband has long passed, but we had some wonderful 40 years. Keep at you both, right now you are just thinking about building your own home, but you are really building memories - and they live forever ❤❤
Thank you, Yvonne :) it was a pleasure to read your kind words!!
I agree , 😊
Sorry for your lost...
The shower turned out great, really good job on the steps, so secured. It always amazes me how much you two do with each job you create. Enjoyed this video also.
Thanks, Cathy!! The steps went through so many modifications before we finally placed them in ahah
Take care until next episode :)
Always a pleasure to watch you two working together and the way you share the work! Beautiful job on those stairs, BTW! They came out great!
Thank you so much :)
Hooked on your channel binge watching awake all night. On episode 57. Awesome work, can hardly wait for next episodes.
Hello Nick and Maela: another thank you for bring us a long while you two are building your home. I really like the way this cabin is coming out and the care that you two are putting into your new home. Have fun and take a few breaks along the way but you are making a lot of progress and doing things the best way and this cabin should last for a long time. I am very happy for both of you.
Don't take chances and work smart like both of you have been doing. Keep safe and I will see you next time.
Thank you so much :)
That has to be one of the most tedious jobs
in your build-chinking! You two are so deter-
mined like the energizer bunnies! Your build
is amazing and reflects the work you have
put into it!❤The other side of Canada-BC!
Cheers,Sandy&Andy
Thank you :) looking back, we don’t know how we did it ahaha
The two of you work so well together in sharing the work load in building this cabin. Amazing!
You guys make an incredible team. Way to go!!
Do not want to live in the woods! Like my running water/ daily showers ..
Was in an armored cavelery unit...we stayed in the field !!!!!!!!!
I always enjoy your vids. You two are just special! ❤❤
Thank you, as always 💛
I Wish I had the enthusiasm and drive you two do to start and finish your project !! Your Attention to detail and your unflinching work ethic is a sight to behold !! I can`t wait until you have finished your build to see the end product !!! Keep up the good work !!
Thank you so much :) it means alot!!
Hello Nick & Maela, you two are doing a great job on your cabin. Love the workmanship, co-operation, and affection you guys show. So glad you are safe from the fires!!!! Take care and be safe. From Wisconsin♥️💕💜🥰
Thanks, Judy! Glad you enjoyed it :)
It makes a pleasant change to see something being built without the use of electric tools, keep it up , very impressed !😅
You are both amazing and inspirational. I especially like the way you collaborate so well and respect each other. If only more people were like that. Thank you for allowing us to watch you both work.👍
First and foremost, I would like to say how happy I am for the both of you that Zachary reached out to you and is supplying you with some power. I do not know two individuals who deserve it more than the two of you. Also, I am from the United States but I believe July 1 is Canada day where ours is on July 4Th. So happy Canada Day if I have that right !!😊. I could watch the two of you work all day long because you seem to be in sync with each other. I’ve said it 100 times, but I’m gonna say it again the two of you absolutely impress me. Catch you on your next video and in the meantime, may God continue to bless both of you. ❤😊👏✌🏼😎🥇🥇🥇
Well, thank you again, Bruce! As always, your comment make our day :)
Thank you for the good wishes on Canada Day!! Same goes for you, tho a little bit late, for you guys 4th of July!! Hope you had a great time with some good fireworks ;)
What a great couple you are, working side by side in harmony with each other. fantastic.
This is a true testament of perseverance. The two of you are very inspiring.
Я в восторге от ребят, от результатов их труда. Особенно меня восхищает девушка. Какая умничка. Удачи вам во всем.
Слава России, по бедительнице!
It was nice to watch this second video of this wonderful young couple. I’m a 71 year old grandma and I love to watch what they are doing in their cabin; their future home! Congratulations to both of you. Watching from Falls Church, Virginia❤️
Well done…Jackery demonstrated excellent judgment in supporting your channel…stay safe…
Just stayed up all night binge watching up to Ep. 42 . Nick, Maela is a keeper. She wore out a pair of shoes in one night, 😂. Take her out and buy her some good hiking 🥾 shoes, she deserves them. Y'all are an awesome couple.
Jack dry are top notch! Good choice and easy to add onto
I am really impressed with your wood cuts,perfect fit!!!!!
Excellent the two of you can accomplish anything im in awe
I don't normally watch this kinda of stuff, but your videos (while promotional with the product placement) were well done, straight to the point. Subscribed!
Wow y'all have done such an amazing job y'all should be so proud of yourselves that's some hard labor. Awesome cabin I've always wanted an off grid cabin me and my husband are hopefully going to be building our own soon.
It’s so nice to see that you have your shower installed and mostly working, that Hass to be a big plus for you both. I thought the stairs you made the end of the cabin were very nice looking, I like them very much. Thanks to the both of you for a very fun And interesting video.
Thank you, as always :) glad you enjoyed it!!
I am always proud of u guys ...u ar always using hand tools ,its awsum .....god bless u both ......with lot of energy to built more .....
Thank you :)
Great work I love the chemistry I see with you both. Unity is strength coupled with love and respect
Yes, after a few days a shower is a needed necessity. lol. Your cabin is looking great.
Oh, I almost forgot, a FROE for splitting things like your stair treads. Fun watching you, thank you very much!!!
Very very nice ! Smart thinking on the spray foam to level out the tub/shower base. Such a beautiful cabin home. 👍👍😊
Another great Ep. I learned a lot watching this video, you're a great team to watch.
This is the first time I've come across ur videos.. I am completely hooked.. So I will be following y'all... Y'all work so well together, that is a great accomplishment.. stay safe and keep up the good work....
Just started watching your channel a couple of months ago, now I'm always watching impatiently for your next video. Amazing what you have accomplished. Will you be living there full time?? Many thanks for all your work bringing us these videos. Take Care!!
Thank you for your support :) yes, we moved in full-time in June!
guys this is amazing, i have learned lots of tricks in the construction of your home. Thumbs up to both of you, with patience and courage and a good health from God you achieved finally the home dream. i am looking forward to the garden pack of fruits and vegetables.
Looks extremely strong even storm or hurricane would run seeing this cabin.Good work and I am proud of you people and I feet for you seeing you on the roof top, me glad when you come down safe.
FABULOUS WORK! CONGRATULATIONS!
Great video again. Love your bath and shower. Suggestion, the outlet pipe in future could service your gardening area. During droughts I often collect the grey water, as it’s called, and water my plants. I use nontoxic organic shampoos and soap to do this .😊
Great idea, thank you!! We’ll adapt our system to make that work :)
Unbeschreiblich Euer Enthusiasmus, dass ist schon aussergewöhnlich was ihr geleistet habt. Ich bin begeistert!!!😀
Felicidades por el trabajo tan bonito que hacen.
Wish you and everyone a wonderful blessed Merry Christmas guys and a happy new year full of your dreams, wishes, joy, love and happiness. Best regards from ENGLAND 🏴 UK 🇬🇧 🎉 🎄
Very inspiring to follow your journey! Thank you.
Love your videos… I can’t stop watching, once I start..😊 Great job! and what an amazing display of teamwork!❤️👍
One of the best videos I've watched and the chemistry that you two have is off the charts
Teamwork makes the dream work👍
Great progress with the grouting stairs and shower - thanks for sharing - you guys are awesome
Thank you :)
What an amazing achievement! And not one power tool used in the whole process start to finish. 👍👍
Felicitaciones !!! El que quiere puede , son dos grandes buscavidas , los admiro
What a beautiful cabin. Seeing the forest reminds me of the beauty of Canada and especially Montreal and surround. Thanks!
You kids have done a wonderful job on building your own home. Take a Bow!! Enjoy your home and enjoy yourselves. By the way my vote is your wife is up for best wife of the decade." I just sat in amazement watching her working so hard with you. Take care..
i love watching your guys new videos on saturday mornings!
Ich finde so toll, euch zu zusehen. Ohne viel Worte, Jeder weiß, was zu tun ist. Hoffentlich habt ihr nicht den ganzen Sommer so viele Mücken 👍😉
Stunning performance on the expert level you guys are amazing you’ll be a beautiful place to raise children !
Great, really enjoyed watching that.
New Subscriber.. building this cabin house along with your partner can build an unforgetable memories.👍
I’m impressed with your talents that you used !! THANK YOU for sharing your adventure!!!
Hermosa vivienda. Realmente es bella y haberla hecho con herramientas manuales en esta época es todo un reto.
Really fun to watch this one, a lot going on! You guys have so much patience splitting those steps! Glad you're safe from the fires!
Glad you enjoyed it, Dave! We actually love splitting woods ahaha the sound it makes make it worth the work :)
Nice job! If you turn your nail with the point up then tap it with your hammer to dull it, it’ll keep the wood from splitting.
Very nicely done. Enjoy
Great job(s) You work very well together. The quality of your work and videos is very good. I'm glad the fires haven't affected you. Stay well and happy.
Thank you! Stay safe too :)
Much respect. ✊
Wow, you are both amazing. And kudos to the camera person, the edits and videography.
I just love you guys working building and I learned a lot

everything so far looks great
I discovered your chanel by accident , it was the one that you were first building the cabin. I fell asleep watching some other vlogs, and woke up 2 am and there you were! I just closed the laptop, and when I woke up I watched the whole thing, and after one other (this one) I subscribed! I love what you guys are doing, but what makes any chanel a keeper for me is the people , and you two are awesome and I love watching! Im glad I have lots to catch up on, so you will be hearing from me soon!
That's awesome! Glad we're fun to watch, and thanks for following along!
Desde Brasil, Rio de Janeiro, agradeço a afetuosa e delicada despedida do casal expondo-nos as flores.
Ótimo descanso!
Awesome build. Great teamwork! NC USA 🇺🇸
Hi Nick and Maela, right at the end of this video you show a picture of a flower or more importantly an orchid. I love orchids and used to grow the type that grew above the ground. New Zealand has orchids, mainly terrestrial's ( like the one you show) and can be difficult to grow in cultivation. I was surprised one day to see one type growing in our little patch off native plants but like all good things, they haven't shown up for the last couple of year. I have only seen pictures of orchids like the one shown in your video and am not sure if they grow in a pot, so,please look after what you have and hopefully you will see it again but more of them. You both are doing a wonderful job and I like watching your video's. Thank you.
I love your channel and your workmanship is outstanding.
My first question was going to be about the fires, thanks for your comment on them.
I would love to know how your chinking works out. I put chinking on a lean-to (three sided log structure) and I used two different materials, Mortar mix and the other was a USG product Wood Fiber Plaster.
My log were not dry so as the logs dried the chinking would pull away. Personally I liked the wood fiber plaster better. I used light weight chicken wire wadded up and where the chinking caught the wire it stayed pretty well. I think your bent over nails will work. Please keep us posted.
very impresive wow Greate job Realy love this
Love from Minnesota 🙏
Thanks a lot for sharing guys, learned quite a few tricks and good points from ya, congratulations on finishing up the building process and may Lord bless your family in that 🪵 cabin.
Tudo maravilhoso..vcs são otimos.. parabéns... abraços... Brasil 🇧🇷
workmanship outstanding
Amazing build by Canadian couple, really enjoyed watching the whole process start to finish. Seriously long though maybe somehow cut it down a bit into segments of 30 to 45 minutes long. Appreciate you sharing this. You are one of the most patient couple building such an off grid house. Awesome Canadian outdoors too as always. Thanks new subscribe here looking forward to your future adventures in the wild outdoors.
A great sweat equity project ! Good job !
