Hey, Glen! I'm sure you miss Smithing, but don't worry about us! We enjoy these videos too! Watching this house build has been fascinating! Thanks for allowing us to join you on the journey!
It doesn't matter if your not doing blacksmith work, just watching how talented you are doing different projects is fine as we all have to do these little things in life.
Nice work.. coming along nicely... If I may comment.. I used to install shelving units in closets and the like.. @1:21 If a shelf is not wall to wall, and mounted in the manner like you have. You'll need a few extra L brackets to secure the length more soundly(look like you'll have at least one or more studs in between). A few 1"x1" single hole brackets mounted to the stud (top and bottom) with good length screws, and into the shelf itself.(typically a 3/4"long or what ever you need, short little screw works great). This prevents the shelve from moving on a casual loading or if it is loaded and helps to prevent it from just giving way.... clothes are heavy. Another help is with the Shelf rod. If you drill a small hole in the U portion of the support, screw a little screw up into both sides of support into the rod, that way the rod wont just slip out from the brackets when your looking for a shirt by sliding around on the rod and the whole rod moves and flops to the ground.... A real fricken pain in the a$$. Other than that.. Looking good...
Hi Glen, I’m impressed with your work ethic. If you can do it yourself then why get someone else to do it! What is the purpose of the blower door test? Not a thing in Australia as far as I am aware. Couple of nice hooks you made, like the braided one.

Ah! Doing all the really fun stuff.
These videos of you building your house, are truly enjoyable. 🙌
I'm stoked with these updates. Great stuff mate.
Nice new simple home, nicely done Glen. Thanks for sharing.
Keep showing this I enjoy it very much
All looks good Glen! Your close for your occupancy cert! Until your next post!
The franklin stud finder from harbor freight has worked really well for me.
Nice looking Sink, especially if you want a Drink. You'll be in the Pink if you can sip in a Wink. Best wishes Glen.

It’s coming right along! Man, I am sure it’s not cheap to fly back and forth. When will you be back in the states permanently?
Will you be moving there?
