Log and Chainsaw-Milled Lumber Gazebo Foundation Build #16
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ต.ค. 2020
- After weeks sweating and sleeping well, one dufus realized just how huge a project this is for one person to undertake while living in a tent in the forest. Over 20 trees had to be taken down to clear the area and provide logs for the frame and wood for the saw mill. The two Stihl chainsaws got little rest during this build! And as always the Granberg small log mill puts up no objections to being used hard week after week making cedar and pine deck boards.
Instead of waiting until the structure is complete later this winter or even next summer, this building project video will come out in two parts.
To celebrate phase one of the giant, log, screened in deck being completed, out came the Cordoba classical guitar for a little Clair de Lune by Debussy to accompany some drone footage of the gorgeous fall foliage in Northern Michigan's Upper Peninsula.

Beside your episode I love your opening. My wife and I bought a school bus turned it into a motorhome and have been camping in it now for eight years three months four days. Loving every minute of it. We are both 74 years old now and enjoying the hell out of our retirement in our bus. God bless stay safe. 🇨🇦
No way…super cool! Enjoy.
Chainsaws, milling, building cool stuff, great videography and editing, and good music too. Your channel has everything.
Awww... Thanks! You give me too much credit.
I love this stuff man and your techniques and originality a lot to learn from you! Thank you!
Holy cow that’s awesome guitar
You’re a true renaissance man! 💪
Right on...the saw circling and the canoe out of one board comment got me. I'm definitely here for the tutorials. Hehe
The heart of a man very rarely visited but always beautifully amazing, here’s to all the good men
I am addicted to watching you work with the wood!!
~Kim 🇨🇦
I congratulate you, my friend, for this beautiful and wonderful work.👍👍👍🖐️🖐️🌹🇾🇪
You got a nice neck of the woods to play around!
Lots of hard work will look nice when your done. Thanks for sharing video. Watching from Iowa. 24 Degrees out
Ahh the primal pleasure of driving a piece of steel through a piece of wood with another hunk of steel. So satisfying, I love it.
When that chainsaw vibrated in a tight circle is what I call the dance , it's when a saw is tuned and running as good as it gets !!! !!!! That's just my opinion and observation after working on them for30+ years . Nice pickin too !!! Great video .
Amazing skills whit the chainsaw, thanks for share it whit us! Amazing work!
Oh so nice to see another fan of Debussy.
I throughly enjoy what your doing👏🏼😁 FUN videos to watch‼️
This One Blew my mind Brother...Wow
You can Really Surf the Flow
When You had no pre-planning
And Crafted the most Beautiful
Wood Platform I've ever seen...
But then Play that Sweet Melody and Share that Overview!
You reached right inside me.
Thank You for Sharing on Your Excellent Channel.
I will visit Often.
🙏❤
Thank you so much Robert for your beautiful comment. Words like yours make it worth the hours and weeks of effort to put these videos together!
Well done on the deck and Clair de Lune rendition.
Awesome ending, thank you.
Man That's a great looking Platform ,Hard Working Man get's result every time ,now it's time ,to sit back look at it, and imagine what it's going to look like when your Done ?beautiful workmanship,thank's for the video .P/S and then you took the guitar Perfect ending *****
What a sweet build, you are a craftsman. Can't wait to watch you complete the project.
I can’t wait to see how it ends up being done! I can’t imagine how I’ll get those big logs up 12 or 15’ to hold up the roof. Something will come to me. It has to, right?
@@survivingringworm2202 Something better come to you, I enclosed a front porch to include into my living room. To span the opening, the city required a 6"×12"×12' Doug Fir beam, it took 3 of us and some busted nuts to get it done. Of course we were young and dumb at the time.
That's a big beam!
I'll have to work on getting younger and even dumber by this spring.
@@survivingringworm2202 Sorry Pal, it don't work that way.
Looks really good to me, "Grasshopper". Your lack of planning ends up a lot better "than the best lay plans of mice and men" - we know how that ended. Speaking of endings, I love this one.
Love to watch you playing in the woods be happy be safe enjoy your journey
Dude this is AWESOME.
Awesome as usual, looking forward to the next video of building the Gazebo
Great video, thank you for sharing all this
OK, you have WOWED me again with that opening shot, even if it's not yours (could be though)...& I am a philosopher at heart, & Einstein has some of my favorite quotes & the one you quoted at the beginning of your video is one of my favorites of his; so absolutely true & I never thought I would be that, I am. I love my solitude BIG TIME, & when you are young its not something you want at all, heaven forbid huh....
Ryan needed this and the BUTTERFLY YES!!! Needed the music at the end Thank You Ryan it hath made my DAY for ME!!!
this is great. you are an amazing man.
Very nice guitar playing. Thanks.
Love your quotes before each video
The sound is soothing and satisfying. Thunk, thunk. Good stuff.
What a brilliant observation from Mr Einstein. So true and hopefully never too late to appreciate that truth and take advantage when and if we get that message. He’d be proud of how you’re embracing that knowledge
I'm not sure I have done much with my life that Einstein would approve of, but I'll take it! He isn't here to argue the point anyway.
I LOVE i mean LOVE your channel man ! you are a diamond and I appreciate thhe inspiration
Thanks!
I learned so much today. Thank you.
Listen wormy you are amazing doing things and making it look great realy enjoy your videos thanks
Thank you!
Salute from New Brunswick, Canada, Ryan. Great videos, start to finish. 👍👍
Another awesome video! Loved your ending song! Love your beginning positive quotes too. Don't plan. Just do it. :)
Ryan it’s going to be beautiful. Each video you record becomes better. One talented dude! I can say things like that being your auntie and all. 😘👍
Thanks for the positive words! I feel like I’m making all the videos the same way but then look back 4 or 5 and see how they have changed. Imagine how good they will be in 20 years!
Found your channel a few days ago, watching your video's from oldest to newest. You content is really good.
Interesting stuff easy to watch the entire video. The drone footage at the end of the video, the scenery is so beautiful and peaceful looking.
Beautiful job again watching from West Virginia
Inspiring. Thank you for sharing your story. You should building stuff with a chainsaw, you're a natural. 😜
Cedar is beautiful laid down & upright too!!! 😊
Nice to revisit some of these earlier vids. The music was nice !!!
That was about as cool, as cool can get...
Really cool build. Something i need to try.
very creative approach to leveraging natures natural footings to build the deck. as a fellow builder and guitar player, i'm impress and appreciate the thought and effort that you put into this. well done.
Thanks!
Superb carpentry. Amish are jealous. 🌟👍🌟
Your floor Joist log should be pealed to meet bugs and moisture out.
Great video! Nice work!
Cheers
You are 100% right about peeling the logs. In the moment I was just too excited to put the thing together. The cedars seem to do alright with bark on but the few pines are a haven for all sorts of bugs.
That’s the best floor lv ever seen its perfect what a good start
Debussy in the woods. How perfect.
Ya don’t see/hear that often do ya?
SO. SO. NICE 🇨🇦
I love you stuff. happy I found you and your channel
Thanks Joseph!
Impressed with chainsaw work.
Just found your channel. Great job. Looking forward to following your adventure. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
That is a thing of beauty!! Awesome job!
Thank you very much!
Awesome job !!
Just ran across your channel and subscribed. I'm hooked. Like the efficiency of the way you build. Really liked the classical music at the end. I also have a Cordoba classical guitar that keeps me company. Have a wonderful day, Sir.
Go cordoba! They are really great instruments esp for the $.
Glad you enjoy!
Love your channel, using your ideas in my forest in England
You are a very special person. 😀
Looks great
Very nice job! Anxious to see the sides and roof...easy for me to say..... I’m just watching.
Great job
I kinda can’t wait to see it too! Especially since I don’t really have a picture in my head of how I’ll build it. Just sort of start and see what comes out.
Thanks for your nice comments as always!
Awesome 🎶👏
Brother....that is freakin awesome. I just purchased 43 acres & I know the perfect spot to do something similar!
Go for it! Have a chainsaw and mill? You’ll be all set.
Ordered mill last night!!!@@survivingringworm2202
Beautiful job work, love it
Ryan you are talented when working with wood!!
Love the ending... like watching the Smithsonian Channel and an episode of Arial Ringworm.
There it is! That was my one chance to get compared to the Smithsonian. Thanks!
That is wonderful music!
Excellent vid, mate
Awesome work brother
I so appreciate how hard it is, regular camping for extended periods is, so living would be twice as hard I would imagine & dream of!!! Honest
~Kim 🇨🇦(Ontario)
It IS hard but sometimes fun is a lot of "work." But hey, if you are loosing a few pounds and can't stop smiling, you are doing something right!
What a beautiful ending, kudos my friend (if I may call you friend)
You play beautifully
Excellent enjoyed every minute 😁
Glad you enjoyed it!
Um belo trabalho, e um belo solo🎶🎶🎶🎶 incrível vista
beautiful.
All I had to do was subscribe and all of the videos are there GREAT!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the positive feedback! It’s nice to hear from folks watching because otherwise it’s just one dude in the middle of the forest with a GoPro and not another soul around.
You are very smart👍
Love the videos!
Thanks! Glad you like!
Just love
Very nice indeed :)
From Indonesia ..Wow...
That's a tremendous stage
I'm surprised you haven't came up with a lift at the mill to help with the logs. Awesome videos
Sheer legs would be suitable.
Respect
At 20:05 when you started cutting the ends off the deck boards, it reminded me of a scene in a cheesy old movie called "Battle Beyond the Stars" when a bad guy had to get his arm cut off with a chainsaw looking thing....lol
You guys are funny, had me laughing, Thank-You!
Well, if that’s the best you can do, that’s the best you can do. ⛓🪚
I like the butterfly :D
You would!
Man, my artistic creations get no respect from some people...
I like it
Where are you located?? How much property do you have?? I have not found the start of your channel but I really like what I have found you are doing great brother living the life and just as you said that's what it's all about enjoying what you do
Way northern Michigan. Doesn’t take long to get to Canada.
I decided to number the videos so if people wanted, they could follow the “experiment” chronologically. Search the channel and find #1 to see the first week out here when all I’d done was hang some hand tools on a tree. Was nothing but a block of forest then.
Music is the best.
You see what your forcing me to do...watching your old videos again.
Awwww crap. Don't do it!
@@survivingringworm2202 I watched them all again lol. Still entertaining as hell
Nice work man ! Where did you get that mill at? Have a link to it?
Lovin the work! Might suggest figuring out some way to keep from dragging your logs through the dirt. Might save you a lot of chain sharpening! 💪🏻
I found that peeling the logs before milling got rid of all the mud so just went with it. Not so much of a problem in the winter tho.
13:48 Holy crap, man! The boat winch on the saw mill piece is an awesome idea! How did you attach it and to what are you connecting the cable? Wish I had thought of that.
Just pulled one of the bolts out of the winch and replaced it with a longer one. The hex head slid right into the C-channel on the mill. I have my sawhorses set up right in line with a tree that has a sling wrapped around it. Not sure where I saw that done but I'm definitely not bright enough to have come up with it myself.
This is so awesome. I'm slowly catching up on all of your videos. I know nothing about wood, but just out of curiosity do you have any concerns about mold or rapid decay with this cut, untreated wood? I'd love to try something similar.
Thanks for watching!
Certainly if I wanted this to last for a very long time, the wood would need to be treated. Either pressure treated or with sealer rolled on. Ideally both. I think the boards that are cedar will last quite a while but the pine, probably not.
Problem is that this wood came right out of the trees so probably can’t be sealed until it dries for a year.
I would loved to see you put a leval on the deck but it looks quite leval anyway for rough sawn timber held up with tree stunps .
sa long as you dont roll out of bed thats the main thing cheers very well done

DeBussy! My respect to you grows by the minute. Thanks for the videos.
