@The Outsider
Can't wait for the next episode of the log cabin build. Great video as always.
Considered cheap pastic tubing you could cut into half pipe for 'gutters' for the cabin as water collection surface area of that roof would get a *lot* of H2O
Would love to see you use that beautiful roof as a catchment for rain. You would never have to worry about water again with all the precipitation you get.
Why don't you just put some chicken wire over the rain barrels?
You are right. That window and door trim is beautiful.
Wheelbarrow bounce was impressive
It's a hilarious party game. Keep making the landing higher until there is a winner. Much technique needed, but can get it well over head height. I've let go and pushed one up and it landed like a bird on something twice my height. Should be in the Olympics!
The cabin is beautiful! You and your Dad work great together. You are so blessed to have a Grandfather who was thinking of future generations and passing that knowledge and wisdom down to your Father and you. Don’t break the cycle.
The exterior is really coming together and the cabin looks terrific. You and your father have done a great job. Thank you for allowing us to share your project. God Bless you and your family. Can't wait to see your
next episode.
Much appreciated, my friend. 🙂🙏 God bless!
Hi Bob Thank you for your kind words and coming along on the journey! It is a labour of love! Thank you for watching! Cheers1
It may be a labour of love, but the results are wonderful to watch materialize.
My sentiments exactly, Bob!
That trim just made the cabin!! What a difference with it on. Having as much property as you have and the ability to cut down any tree you want, you are showing real/true stewardship of the land. Something you should take great pride in, many don't.
On a side note, you and your dad look like you work well together and enjoy each other's company. Seeing that in your videos is a true blessing. Enjoy every minute of it (as I'm sure you do) that you can, the memories will be worth looking it!
Keep the great videos coming, I enjoy each and everyone of them.
Love the look of the cabin, grandpa did a great job on the forest.
The attention to details, done with a feel for esthetics is making this cabin a treasure in the woods. I really appreciate you sharing this. Thank you!
Thank you Elisabeth! Although the finer details take time to accomplish, I've found that they give a real sense of heart to the cabin.
Bravo. You and your Dad do quality work. We LOVE watching Y'all 💛
Unfortunately his father passed earlier this year... 😞
I'm blown away by how big thos cedars trees are !!!!!
The cabin looks beautiful. You and your dad have worked extremely well together to build something that your family can use for generations. Looking forward to the interior build.
debarking is so satisfying to watch.
I am SO happy this series isn't going to end anytime soon. I'm enjoying watching the progress. The cabin is looking AH-MAZING 😍
😁🙏
@@TheOutsiderCabin when you do finish this one please start another one ✌️😎
Ah my morning dose of goodness. It's great to see the cabin coming along. I look forward to seeing the next episode. Thank you.
3:45 I just love how you managed to get the wheelbarrow onto the ramp without lifting it. Very practical- need to save that back.
I thought that might have been an Aussie trick, but like all good things, they travel quickly. Regularly bounce my barrow into the back of the truck :-)
That move brought a smile to my lips. Actually rewound to verify what I thought that I saw.
You should see him ride a motorcycle!
Its great that you get to work with your father and it appears that you work as equals on this project. Earning a dad's respect is a goal of every son. All that in addition to just watching progress on your wilderness cabin. Thanks for sharing.
I really like it when the finishing touches are put on the outside of a home. It really makes all your hard work in building a solid frame feel rewarding. Can't wait to see the choices you guys will make for the interiors and gardens! God bless you and keep posting when you can.
Thank you, my friend! I was pleasantly surprised to see much of a difference the trim made on the cabin appearance.
Anyway, I think I'll give an interior tour soon. It's pretty bare bones inside at the moment, but it's going to look super cozy when we're finished with it. God bless!
Hi again. 🇨🇦 I too selectively log on the homestead property and I must say your tree falling portable homemade item is amazingly practical! 💯 I will plan to make on to help when a fallen tree gets caught in other trees. Honestly, quite a treasure having such an item when selectively logging.👍
The cabin iz looking good, reminds me of watching my grandpa build one for my aunt about 44 year's ago, and it still looks good today. He used the wood on the property, and the logs were quite a bit bigger around than yours, he used a crane to set the logs. They used a wood burning stove to heat the house, and propane for the water heater, and regular oven. My grandpa never got a permit, and it's not on record either, but he ran electric back to the house. My aunt passed away, and now just my uncle lives back there. One feature I liked, was that my cousin had his room in a loft that was good sized. When you build these cabins right, they will out last a regular house. I see your cabin lasting a long time. God bless.
Thanks for sharing! Your grandfather left a legacy he can be proud of.
Beautiful to watch! We´ve followed you since the beginning and you are a true inspiration! Greetings from Sweden
You and your dad do amazing work! You work so in synch with one another. Building on your grandfathers legacy is awesome! He did a great job managing the forest. I so look forward to seeing every video of yours! Thank you for sharing!
You are so smart and caring with wild Animals
God bless young man beautiful work, cabin looks awesome. Loved how you honoured your father for fathers day. The word says honour your parents that your days may be long. God bless your family with His Devine healing power. Love from New Zealand. Sister in Christ.
Your said it all my sister,love from Florida
God Bless
I have rarely posted but as a long time viewer (nearly 7 years) I want to say how much I have enjoyed watching. Your foraging videos and snowshoe videos were some of the first videos. There is something special about your labor of love in everything you do. Thank you for sharing!
Just an fantastic job!!! You leave us all wanting more video after each one. When the cabin is done it will be a 5 star resort. 👍👍
You and your dad work so beautifully together. It is a joy and blessing to watch you two work.The cabin is looking more awesome in each episode. God bless you both.
I hope your Dad is around many years to enjoy that cabin with you cherish the time you spend with him I did projects with my Dad and I cherish the time we spent doing things he has been gone 30 years now and i really miss those times .
You're my favorite off-grid build channel. I just love you guys! The cabin is so beautiful, and so are you both. Inside and out...
Give my best to the family.. I hope everyone is well. We have scans next week.. please pray for it to be cancer-free finally!
With love and prayers... God bless.
Looks beautiful, it looks like it's going to be a merry Christmas there this year
Now that's the spirit! 😁👍🎄🛷⛄❄🎁 I can't wait!
So glad to know there’s still plenty more episodes to come. Thank you.
I'm delighted to hear there will be plenty more video's to come. I really do enjoy them and look forward to watching them every fortnight. To quote Essential Craftsman, "Keep up the good work."
Thanks! Will do, my friend! 👍🙂
@@TheOutsiderCabin I've just watch you heartbreaking testimony of our mother i completely understand your pain i to was saved by my grandmother and raised along with my other siblings I've subscribed to you vlog God is with you and your dad
P.s you never truly never get over the loss 25+ years later I've cried along with you God. Will help you
My wife and I enjoy your series so much. We live in a diverse ecosystem in Texas, part of which is a National Preserve, and my plans are to build a getaway cabin some day. Also, we appreciate the fact that we don’t have to worry about offensive language in your presentations. Keep sending the videos!
The windows look amazing - well done. It’s going to be a beautiful cabin I have no doubt.
Your channel is one of four that I subscribe to, and eagerly await each episode. Cabin looks outstanding at this point. Just as an aside, the other 3 channels somewhat mirror the kind of craftsmanship and creativity that yours reflects: My Self Reliance, Life Uncontained, and Red Poppy Ranch. You all are blessed with the kind of spirit that built America. God Bless
Best cabin build I've ever watched, The attention to detail and craftsmanship is top shelf
My favorite series to watch on YT. It’s looks wonderful and will look as well 100 years from now. You can pass it off for generations.
Looks absolutely beautiful and perfect so happy to see the cabin mostly complete much love always hope pops and you are doing great 🍄🙏🖖🌄☕🏞️
The true sprit of the pioneer woodsman, take what you need and leave it better than you found it. Profound life principal. Trim looks great! don't need to season it? Thanks for sharing, look forward to each day in the journey. God Bless.
I don't know if I've commented or if others have, but you really have some exceptional sound recording/editing. The ambience in the non-speaking parts is just so nice (the birds, the gentle breezes, etc.).
I love this series. The best part is watching you work with your dad. Its truly beautiful and special. Take care.
This log home is turning out to be completely amazing!!! Well done and keep up the good work!!! 🥰
The look of pride you had after the two windows were trimmed was awesome. Nice work Mr. Outsider, what a breath taking cabin you have made for yourself and for your family. Excellent job!
I never thought watching someone peel bark off a tree could be so satisfying.
I thought I was the only one :)
Can’t believe how far you’ve gone. Been watching your videos from when you would post about foraging. Just popped in 2 years later to see you log cabin. Great work!
The cabin looks stunning by the way.
Framing and trimming the windows and door really makes a dramatic improvement in the appearance of the cabin. These touches add the *_"pop"_* to your hard work.
Thanks for another great video.
I’m glad the series will continue. It’s a fantastic cabin. I would be happy to live there 😁
Your forestry knowledge impresses me. I had to go to school and work in the woods to acquire most of what I have learnt.
And, where did you learn about building construction? You two do very well at it.
I may well be behind in knowing your vocational situation. But I hope you don't give up the ministry. We need wise and thoughtful men to tend the sheep. And I have noticed through the years that pastors who have worked with their hands or at least had demanding worldly jobs are the best spiritual leaders. This is part of your seminary education.
You are in class for these things, both for your ministry as well as for your life:
Planning, figuring out, logic, practicality, working with people, problem solving, and many more things. Some like this and some different.
I like every bit of the Lord that you have included in this. Without Him is no blessing or success!
And there is opportunity for a forrest kitchen, a sauna, a workshop or a complete new/extra cabbin! 😄
Just started 2 watch the building of this cabin--- who r the guys building it?-- sure know their stuff
@@elainenovack905 hes not a professional builder. He’s building it for his family.
They still have a name tho--- i briefly saw William & Daniel ___?__last name didn't get--- they build like professionals--- my husband & his buddy did nice builds 2 but u would not b able 2 use audio, cause it'd b bleeping out all the time 😄
My husband and I continue to be so impressed and happy for you and your Dad. Look what the two of you have done. INCREDIBLE! Absolutely look forward to seeing your new videos each time so we can watch in awe together! Well done, and please always know you and yours are being prayed for!
That drone footage really drove home your selective logging comment - that was very nicely done! Please tell your Dad he's looking good. Thank you for another great video.
The drone footage really drove it home for me as well! Originally, I did the drone zoom-out shot to show how far I had walked to drop the tree...but as I saw the birds-eye view of the forest, it just hit me: "My grandfather has logged this entire section of forest for 75 years, yet it looks untouched! Amazing."
Thank you for your kind words Tom ! All the best to you!
@@TheOutsiderCabin what name brand of chainsaw? What country are you in?
@@stevensaxon8888 Chainsaw is a Poulan & The Outsider is in Ontario, Canada.
I think the extended exterior sills add such character to the windows. Thanks again for another video, and God’s blessings to the entire Outsider family.
Wow i love it. Looking so good. It likes like the windows are big. But that is just the way it looks. I love it a lot
I love your channel. Between you and Shawn James, and Nik Rajevac you all make the best videos. All of you make good use of your surroundings and keep everything within nature. I know there are others that deserve that same distinction, but the three of you are the most professional looking. I'm glad that we'll get to see much more after the outside is done.
During high school I read the Foxfire series; Teaching the ways and lifestyle of Appalachian people. Book 1 introduced me to log cabin construction. Though I have yet to build a log cabin that initial inspiration and my desire remains strong. Your series not only strengthens that resolve, it keeps that inspiration from my youth alive. I also appreciate how you teach not only how it done, but the philosophy behind caring about what we take from the earth.
17:32 I love how Mr. Outsider put his trade on that smooth operation!
For some reason I'm just itching to see you inside working with a big fire going...
It's looking amazing
Its beautiful, your Mum would be so proud of you both.💖 And kudos to Grandad too🌲🌲🌲
It's a beautiful cabin. The trim looks great. Nice work fellas !
Been Watching from the beginning and I can say I’m truly impressed on we’re the cabin stands today.. it’s beautiful 🥺🖤
From experience, L know that 50 years from now you will recall with pride some of the tricks you developed to build the house & you will fondly remember the efforts of your dad that helped make this a home. Going well & stay safe Brian 81
Best built and looking cabin Iv seen on TH-cam, that thing should last longer as your grandfather has been working them woods. 🙏
The craftsmanship continues to impress. And the detail you're paying to the finishing touches, has gone a long way to making the home look ever more spectacular with each episode.
well said
My very favourite You-Tube Channel , thank-you so much for sharing , you are a very adept film maker ! I remember the other bark removal video you did where you did a whole tree, the cabin is a work of Art
You could build a screened in gazebo, for those who want to stay outside .
Now that's an idea! I'd love to build a gazebo, with my own twist of course.
Excellent work as always! Congrats on finishing the outside stuff. I myself finished my cabins metal roof today and understand the sense of accomplishment. Keep up the great work.
Looks cozy from outside.
Loving the finishing touches, l am so happy to be able to watch this build it looks beautifully put together. You and your father are doing a fantastic job. Bless all of you and thank you for sharing.
Thank You Sue!
@@senioroutsider2975 You are welcome
You and your father have done a beautiful job on the cabin I love the look of this cabin .🙂🇨🇦🙏
I've been watching since you roll the rocks in place. I'm thrilled to see you getting it closed up and almost completed. Such a beautiful cabin! May God bless and keep you and your family!
The cabin is looking really good, a testament to the level of workmanship you've held through this entire build.👍
Thanks for the education on the forest and selective logging. You make logging look easy, with your skill. It's wonderful to see and hear about the smart way to live with the land.
The cabin is definitely coming along and looking good.
saw an interesting bit of property available in my area. 151 acres of completely undeveloped land, limited access to boat or sea plane only.
1 stream running through, a couple area of standing water, covered in second growth old enough to be logged. Perfect for a 100% off-grid build.
$7,000 a year property taxes as is. ( 2020 tax year assessment )
35 kilometres from Prince Rupert via boat. borders Hecate Straight and awesome fishing area, comes with a good sheltered anchorage.
Sounds like an absolute dream! Building on such an isolated plot would be an adventure! The kind that would either make or break you. 😅 Taxes seem high though. Although I'm not familiar with the BC market.
@@TheOutsiderCabin most of coastal BC is as costly as Toronto. Mild seasonal changes make it comfortable living year round.
In this particular case, the taxes are likely due to one of the very few sheltered anchorages in the bay being attached to the property as well as the year round running water from the stream. Most island properties have water supplies closer to your cabins.
That sounds awesome Jaqui! worth a second look ! Thanks for watching1
@@jaquigreenlees Digby Island?
@@carlosdelascuevas6140 nope, it's on Porcher Island.
So beautiful! I love the workmanship and watching you and your father work together. God bless you and your family always
I'd definitely love to see the cabin someday truly wonderful hard work super proud I remember when you started!❤️
Oh my! What an outstanding job! So happy you took us along. Logs peeled great. Love the milling. So nice to see those fresh boards! God Bless you and your family.
I wasn't aware of your series ending...I must say I'm glad it's not..I've really enjoyed watching and learning...thank you!!👍👍😎
I'm glad you have an exit strategy for the critters. I went to a cardboard dumpster a couple years ago and was startled to here noise coming from the dumpster. After looking for a bit, I saw a raccoon stuck inside trying to get out. I finally found a piece of wood for it to climb up and out.
You just need a water tank near the cabin,to catch the rain water,,up on a strong wooden base,with hoses going into the cabin as your water supply.
ideally that tank would have to be protected from frost.
for example the tank sitting inside a large box that is filled with earth to insulate.
Thats what they did on the eastern front to keep the watertanks from freezing wich they needed for their steam locomotives. no water no steam...
@@ulrichkalber9039 I have seen these water tanks up on big wooden stands on farms,and they light fires under breaths them in winter,to keep them from freezing.
I have been watch this sense the beginning so happy to see this thing come together
Love the way it’s all coming together. Can’t believe I’m saying this in summer but I can’t wait till Christmas!
😄👍 I'm with yeah! 🎄🛷⛄❄🎁
How perfect to have your grandpa’s mature eastern white cedar to build your entire cabin from ! You are saving a lot of money and It’s the best native species to use by far in Ontario.
Well done with the cabin so far! Well thought out and well built. Enjoy watching you two.
I have never seen anyone get a tree on stock like that, that is a really good idea
It must give your dad so much joy to be with you during this build. I suspect that since you were a tot, projects with your father were commonplace. Your skills were not acquired overnight. What a gift he has been to you and now that he sees these gifts realized in his son…what could possibly be more gratifying to him.
Really something to be proud of!
Keep up the good work. I really enjoy watching this channel. I am glad to see you and your Dad working together. That is one of the essential parts of Family.
Looking so great mate. The window trim looks amazing. Transformed the outside. Love your work and look forward to the rest of the build. A great accomplishment and I'm sure you'll enjoy some work out of the elements this winter!!
@14:42 To avoid capillary movement of water and rot, it's customary on traditional/wooden windows here in Norway to make a ca *1/4" gap* btw the (exterior) vertical sills/jambs and the casing. In addition, we normally also include a drip-grove on the underside of the sill. But then, perhaps we are more accustomed to vertical storms with rain and snow.
Love this cabin - good skills 👏👏👏
brother the cabin is the nicest I have ever seen, I love the fact that your grandfather managed the forest in the most sustainable form of forestry there is, selectively removing the inferior trees, thinning and letting the young desirable trees grow, it must be like a park in places -only better, not thousands of people stomping through, a little piece of paradise
love the videos, kudos to you and your dad and thanks for the amazing journey that we call life and that we get to follow along, thumbs up
It is refreshing to see a man who loves Jesus and loves his family on TH-cam contributing to society and not just to be the center of attention. Thanks so much for all you do and God bless you and your family!
Your cabin is beautiful. You and your dad have done a wonderful job. So impressed with the beautiful relationship you have with your dad. He seems to be a very faithful, loyal, hardworking and loving dad. You seem to be a great son. Just by the comments you make of your grandfather sounds like you all are a wonderful family. God Bless you in all your endeavors and always be there for your dad and grandfather. I think you already are!
I did not know cedar debark that easy, like Pastillas de Leche (Filipino Milk Candy). A lot of good information comes from this channel whether you are a seasoned woodsman, or interested urbanite.
You and your dad have got the cabin building down to a science, it looks really good and when you finish the cabin, you both can sit back and enjoy the work you did. I enjoy watching you two work together so well and the job is never to big to tackle, so good luck on the cabin.
How did you get the deer to pose so perfectly 😍
Just finished binge watching the whole series. WOW! What an epic journey! You’ve created a beautiful thing. I just love that you did this with your dad. 👏
"We're only halfway through the cabin build"... I wish you could have seen my reaction when you said that!! 😄 Even though you'll be having Christmas in it this year, I'm so glad you have more to do on it. It's my guiltiest pleasure on TH-cam, and has been for a long, long time.
It's looking amazing!
I have been watching you for at least 9 months, I love your videos and watching you and your Dad work together..keep them coming my friend. Thank you!
Wow it looks so good now really that trim does it really well you dad is good carpenter to probably about my age i think good job you have pride in your work !!
Thats amazing, the cabin and the nature. the camera man, the video editor, the drone pilot are from another world, the perfection is your title, thank you
I'd start on building a set of stairs for the front door, even if they were temporary.
Howdy Brother- the wide trim on the door and windows help to give the cabin a look and feel of strength. Looks great! God bless y’all
I bet that fresh cut cedar must have smelled wonderful. The cabin looks ready good - are you sleeping inside the cabin, or still using the bunkhouse/shed?
Yes it does! The cabin already has a lovely aroma of cedar, which I'm sure will be further accentuated once we get the wood stove going.
The bunkhouse has become more of a toolshed at this point 😅, so I sleep in the Pop-Up Cabin when I can.
@@TheOutsiderCabin When you have your first hot coffee/chocolate cooked inside the cabin on the wood stove know us subscribers are toasting you. (We'll be thinking congrats, you've really, truly earned it.)
