      @mary CBS news jane - If they were concerned they would have said so. These folks are not building a residence that they will live in. It's just a camping spot but happens to be a step up from a tent. How many tents are insulated? So instead of recognizing the purpose of the cabin, the naysayers go right in with the criticism.

    We're building several sheds out of pallets and reclaimed wood. The pallets you guys got look like they were in great condition. That's a huge bonus.

I have 4 years roofing and 6 1/2 year carpentry under my belt the rest is plumbing and mostly electric...(license included) lol. but yous guys put this thing together with the out most of professionalism. Not sure who was at the top of the roof having a beer and dropping caps but that made me laugh yous guys are more Canadians than ya think ....or the other way around lol. So nice to see you do this with your Dad. I would have love the opportunity to do this with my father. Cherish the moments my friend. By the way you remind me of an old army buddy back in 89 with those long boney chicken legs and those big blue eyes hahaha.

      Shadel Garry I have a better idea. How about our corrupt government buy up a whole bunch of the abandoned hotels that litter cities across the nation and hire the homeless people to help restore it. If you want a room to live in when it's done, you get on the list to work. That's a better idea than suggesting what a good deed it would be if this man and his dad put in their hard work and energies building these same houses for the homeless. It's not and easy job and why should they? Most of the homeless are not crippled and even those that are can lift a paintbrush. When I see those abandoned hotels on the Urban Exploration channels, it makes me so mad that vandals and even the homeless have destroyed much of the property. There has to be better ways than suggesting people go around building cabins for the homeless who don't participate.

    I really enjoyed watching this. I love builds like this, and hope to be able to do this one day. You are incredibly lucky to have a father that will build projects with you. I lost mine before I was an adult. Cherish every moment, and don't take him for granted. Cheers!

    In Canada we call that a house trailer not a camper, a camper to us is what sits in the back of the truck. Nice job on that shed, my wife and I did a addition onto our old log cabin 15' X 25', I got quite a few 3/4" X 4X8' sheets of plywood so that became the floor and outer walls, then I found a good deal on 1/2" 4x8' for the roof, She finally got indoor plumbing a old claw foot tub and I installed a shower into it, then a free toilet, and sink the sink cabinet was also free including Medicne Cabinet. In the corner I installed a stacking washer dryer. I put in a trap door to the crawl space as most of plumbing works were down there and I had some of that between the Bathroom and intrance door such as HWH & Expansion Tank. I installed a pocket door to the bathroom, I Put the toilet in the wrong spot and if the back door was open you could see anyone sitting on the john. Oh well you only got embarassed. Bathroom had a window, hall above Expansion tank also had a decent sized window, two decent sized windows in the Bedroom area as we only had one in the Log section so this now gave us 2 bedrooms. We used the addition for a sitting room in the daytime and a double bed which we could fold to chesterfield until we went to bed. My wife bought some real firm foam about 5" thick when it was still cheap by 75" long cut it in the middle in off angles so when you went to bed u just turned one piece around and it made for a comfortable 54"X75" Bed. I slept better there than down beside the train yard. One side of the roof had a steep slope, the other side not so steep, I was lucky to pick up some new metal roofing which did the job completely which also covered the facia walls under the side eves. I installed out side taps for watering garden. Hard growing items at 3200' but we started it all at home in Greenhouse then transported to the property. Over the years my wife and I restored 5 old homes which taught us to do the plumbing, electrical, and the construction of the addition. Neither of us had any education on construction, we had a friend do most of the plumbing, I upgraded the Kitchen plumbing to the sink. The friend who did the plumbing also helped me with some of the electrical. From our well the water line to the cabin is 7' down to bedrock with a small pump in a 20' deep dug well. It will never freeze as we wrapped in pipe insulation right up to where it comes up to in the Crawl space. The Addition has a Concrete Foundation with rebar, we had a 1947 Cement Mixer that came out from a mine, found in the bush, and had to be perfectly level for the gas motor to run steady could mix a yard at a time. The water was brought to my brother in law and me as we did the heavy work but neighbors pumped water up into 45 gallon drums in their wood Trailer took 3 1/2 drums of Lake water to mix it all. I did all the foundation by eye and levels and string levels. The walls were 6", the Ceiling was 2x4 so we could install Drywall, The roof truss's were built like you built yours the beam was 12" by 17' Doubled up and 2x8' on the down slopes. We installed 40" of pink insulation in the ceiling which I got free, also the walls were same Pink Insulaton I think it was 2x4" and we installed 220 Floor Heaters two in the new bedroom under the windows, one in the bathroom, one in the old bedroom. Took about 3 days for the wood cook stove and the wood insert in the fireplace to get the logs nice and warm and at -40 F we could be quite comfortable. We would blow all the water lines in November so that meant we would bring up 2 - 5 gallon buckets of water for ourselves for those few days.
    I installed a 200WPanel then in the Guest Cabin found a 60W panel and the addtion a 75 watt panel and rewired everything from that 200W with BX Cable wiring as there are mice up there and this kept them at bay. Occasional Bat would come in but I did everything possible to keep them our of the cabin but like I said they could squeeze in, they carefully got removed and put back to a Bat house.

    The inside walls I would start at the bottom and go up, by this the idea is to spray foam inside as you go up. I got a 8 x 10 shead that I'm working on and spraying foam along the way. I seen a meathod where someone sprayed foam inside sheet rock in a house, he cut two holes... one to spray in and the other for any excess. Love the idea you and your Dad had on this shead.

    I still think I would have put some kind of insulation in between the walls even if it was 4 by 8 foam sheets at least then you have it if you do need to warm it up in the winter or use it in the really cold . It would be fun to be out there in the middle of winter with a little fire place and snowing outside. Bring a few sleds and make a weekend out of it...

      @yjmsrv 4 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      I was thinking the same thing- even though it's very well built and has interior boards- it would be so much easier to heat and keep the heat in and the cold out with basic insulation between all those boards. It was all just sitting there exposed and begging for insulation before they put the fence wood up (which looks really nice fwiw)! That thing is so small- what would it cost for the small amount of insulation it would have required...

      Why burn 5 logs when 1 would do? You will use so much more firewood just because you skimped on insulation.
      That's the difference insulation would make also why bake in summer and freeze in winter. Hut would have been better insulated.
