    Hi Martin. This video is from 13 years ago. Wow 😮 enjoyed watching it. Loved seeing the gray jays eat from your hands. Thanks

    Love watching your old videos. I have a rocker like that with green pads. Hope letting the ads play will still help on these old videos. Nov 2023

      Never have figured out the ad payout but seems watching them all the way through does not seem to add to my income. It is all about the first few seconds.

    I'm planning to build a small log cabin my self so i'm looking at a lot of log cabins designs. I'm only 20 years old, so its a long time for the day i will build my cabin. Thanks for the response, and have a great day //Chris from North of Sweden.

    Those Gray Jays must be very happy to see you arrive. What a great place you've set up for yourself. Maybe you could show that "cooler in the ground" on a future video. Sounds like an interesting idea. You must have "critter proofed" it in some way.

    Good to see your grey jays are back. We don't have grey jays at our cabin in northern Michigan. But my wife and I feed our black caps by hand and enjoy them . And your videos ..thanks

    In the cabin we're restoring in Wyoming, which will be year 'round use, I want to create some sort of deep ground storage for root vegetables (and maybe a few bottles of wine) without having to create a full basement. Looking for ideas. I like your cooler in the ground. Much drier in the Wind River Valley so it wouldn't be a problem with ground water seeping in, but would need a somewhat bigger space.

    • @TheNorthwoodsman1
      @TheNorthwoodsman1  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Root cellars were very common at some of the old homesteads. It looks like they were dug and a wooden roof put on and then dirt piled back on with the rest of the insulation from snow. It is wet here so most were dug into a rise so the door could be lower and water could be drained out.

    Hi Martin, I have a question on your wood shed. How do the upright posts attach to the ground? Are they in the ground or sitting on concrete?

    • @TheNorthwoodsman1
      @TheNorthwoodsman1  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      They are Tamarack and are 4 feet in the ground. Tamarack are often used for pilings because they will last a long time.

    • @markrankin3297
      @markrankin3297 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you Martin, I thought only Cedar would last in the ground. I have a Cedar fence that has been installed for 10 years. Some of those posts that are in the ground have rotted off.

      If you mean any really old relics the answer is no. Old census forms show a few trappers around 1900 but nothing else.
