I have followed this project from the beginning due to my interest in building an ICF home. Thanks dude for having the rocks to put yourself on stage while figuring it out, getting your hands on the handle and make some mistakes While we all watch and gain from your efforts. Teddy Roosevelt spoke about the man in the arena ...he is the doer that knows both victory and defeat but presses on .
Thank you for letting us follow along, it has been exciting to watch you build from the ground up!! I wish you and your family a happy 2021, and a move in date, hopefully in the spring!!!!!
Ive been an avid fan right from the start when you have newly purchased the land you are building on now.you are an amazing couple...youve gone a long, long way.cant wait to see your forever home.wow what a build and taking us along the journey...
The hubby and I first found you back when you first posted the "they're all gone" video and have followed you guys ever since. It's so exciting to see the progress and ups and downs y'all have faced. You are very resilient and I pray for a great 2021 for you. Here's to hopefully moving in before the end of the year.
Things are coming along! You two have come so far in this journey, and it won’t be long until you will be in your new beautiful home! Happy New Year! 🎆
Happy New Year to you and your family! And congratulations on finishing the steel deck pan. I too was amazed that you did that all by yourself. I hope that 2021 is better for everyone than 2020.
It sure does look beautiful...and that is without the concrete poured. Amazing work you do! Thanks again for sharing the build. AND many blessings for the New Year - wishing you and the family happiness, joy, much love and a great flow of creativity/$! hugs, Lucy
Happy New Year to you and your family. Been following your build since you two were sitting on lawn chairs on the dirt foundation. Have enjoyed every one of your videos. Can’t wait for the deck pour. Awesome house.
The composite deck looks good!! 2 pieces of advice, puddle the deck where it bears on the beams. You don’t have to heat up the beams. Gets some Lincoln electric 6022 and puddle weld the deck. Also you should button punch your laps being that you have a large span between beams. That deck is designed for button punching, it keeps your seams from busting!!!
@Guildbrook Farm. That should be fine if your using “ Lap screws” lap screws have a fine pitch and hold the 2 plies of the deck tighter. May I ask you a question? Why did you chose not to use a transition strip where you transition the deck sheets the other way?
Happy New Year to the four of you from Kingston Ontario, and also to your neighbours who helped and to the companies that have kindly sponsored you - may they become filthy rich as a result. And thanks for sharing - I started watching y'all when you were still chasing chickens and canning at your old place.
The decks are sooooooo good the project has been very time consuming but soooo worth it and the views in all directions wow of all i have watched you guys do the writings on the walls when you build your house on that firm foundation how can you go wrong im so excited for you all
Looks great! Wow, I’m exhausted just watching. Talented and gifted family. So how do you cover the holes at the corners where the ends are open? Best wishes and a Happy New Year!
I will be here as I have from the beginning I’m so impressed with you both. Happy New Year from Granny B. It’s a great and beautiful home. Can’t wait to see more. Love you guys. ❤️❤️❤️❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
So curious to see how you will seal all those holes of the deck pan where it changes direction. Happy New Year! This time next year you just might be putting up xmas decorations in the new house! Can't wait! 💕
Happy New Year Jeremy, Jaime and Girls. Jeremy it looks great! the steel deck! and your such a hard worker to get this done by yourself. Wow Awesome!!! We just love y'all
Sir what you are building is nothing like what I thought you were going to build, and I did not always agree with the how. That being said You have earned a lot of respect from me. Looking forward to you sharing more of your journey. Hope 2021 is a great year for you.
the view is amazing. i am excited to see how your house will come out :). I loved your video(s) about the victory garden, the EDC and the pressure cooking etc. but this is inspiring too.
Happy New Year! Not sure I could live with all the noisy neighbors and put up with that view. Ha Dang what a fabulous place you have , really enjoyed watching this build, your place will survive almost anything thrown at it.
Happy New Year to You and Jamie. It's been interesting watching as the home slowly gets built but I truly can't wait to see it finished and your family living inside this lovely home. That will be a fantastic day.
Well done! I am honestly impressed you did all of that by yourself and you do deserve to toot your own horn. That was a lot of work. One question simply because I am just so curious. The places where the pan changes direction has left quite an opening where the pour could just go through therefore I know there is something you'll do to block that, but what? I just can't figure it out in my mind. 🤣 Also, I hope y'all have a great 2021 and are able to get some of your garden build done this year as well.
@@Guildbrookfarm - Wow! Is that stuff really that strong? I ask because I have a few pieces of foam board loose in the eves of my patio cover that is shaped much like your deck pans. Now you've got me wondering should I replace those with foam instead. 🤔
Glad to read all is well in your reply to another viewer. With all that’s happening in the world right now it’s hard not to worry. I keep peaking to see if I missed a notification. Spring is just around the corner. That will be exciting to see you close to moving in. Take care.
Thanks as always - that vew is awesome. Sometimes while watching you I want to jump in my car, drive the 5 hours (or so) it would take ot get there and give you a hand.....Anyway - Happy New Year!
I actually watched your concrete pouring video first and, like others, was keen to find out what type of supports you were using. Interesting to see that this type of construction uses effectively half the amount of concrete a solid slab would use and still does he same job .. although not quite as strong. I'm looking to build a concrete shelter/bunker with a suitable thickness concrete ceiling so this doesn't appear to be what I'm looking for as It doesn't have a constant thickness I need. Well done though! You've put a lot of effort into the job and I note that in the concreting video, the crew did a great job too. Cheers from Australia.
In a year when this is all done and your sitting on the deck looking out over your terrific view all of this work will have been well worth your effort As always all the best wishes for a prosperous and sucessful 2021 From Allenford, Ontario, Canada
Very thoughtful in everything your family does to ensure it lasts. Love the concrete, did you pick a custom floor plan or off a site with link? Thanks for sharing!
You are probably just annoyed as we followers are, Weather plays a big part in doing the job as you said,!! dont realise the cold and wind as we watch, but still worth the watch, Hope you had a great Christmas & Have a Very happy New year from the UK!!.
Happy new year, the view from the deck is going to be great. I am sure glass rail panels would break the budget. I had a friend use 4"x4" 4 AWG live stock panels that he had powder coated in black. They were set between wood posts and rails but welded steel tubing would also be a good option. The black panels sort of blended in and let the view show through. Eliminated lots of painted fence boards and was quite reasonable cost wise. Make sense when the current codes call for a max 4" spacing, that's a lot of boards to maintain on your large deck.
Did you stop making videos? I learn so much from you all. I want to start a homestead and love your videos. I started canning because of Jamie's video on canning soup and bought the 921 and the camp chef camp stove. I hope you make more videos. You all are so smart.
Coming along great Jeremy!! I'm really interested to see how the deck comes together. I've never seen this type before. I hope you and the girls had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
I’ve been following you since you were in your old house. The neighbors got you in trouble and you had to get rid of the animals. Miss you. Hope to see you back soon
Any concern about the shear strength of all that weight on the concrete ledge off the foundation walls? Loving the build! I bet you can't wait until this is finally over and you can get settled in and start working smaller projects.
Go ahead a brag!!! You deserve all the credit. Amazing work.
Quite true.
Every time I watch one of your videos before bed, I end up dreaming of a little farm in the mountains. I kind of love it.
I have followed this project from the beginning due to my interest in building an ICF home.

Toot that horn Jeremy! You are doing amazing work considering you didn't have experience or confidence when you started. TOOT TOOOT!
Thanks for the content. It certainly brightened up the year for me. Your house will be beautiful to live in!
I hope so!
@@Guildbrookfarm No hope Luke.....will
Wow, you all have a fabulous view from those heights. You did an awesome job, it's okay to be proud of your accomplishments.
Ive been an avid fan right from the start when you have newly purchased the land you are building on now.you are an amazing couple...youve gone a long, long way.cant wait to see your forever home.wow what a build and taking us along the journey...
Every step of the way the build has been beautiful. Thank you for sharing it with us.

That view at the end looks so good it looks fake, going to be amazing on that deck drinking a coffee or whatever
Things are coming along! You two have come so far in this journey, and it won’t be long until you will be in your new beautiful home! Happy New Year! 🎆
Wishing you and your loved ones health, peace and continued progress on your beautiful build. Love from Canada 🇨🇦.
Happy New Year! All tge best for this new year.
Happy New Year!
Excellent job! You have much to 'toot your horn' about, you and your family. Enjoy your videos, always learning something.
Happy New Year to you and your family! And congratulations on finishing the steel deck pan. I too was amazed that you did that all by yourself. I hope that 2021 is better for everyone than 2020.

Good job Jeremy! Be proud of your work!
Happy New Year
It’s hard to believe it’s been 3 years since we poured your deck! You built a great house! Awesome view too!
Happy New Year to all of you. Blessings for the coming year.
It looks closer to finish every video, great job guys!!! Blessings for 21!
Happy New Year to you and your family. Been following your build since you two were sitting on lawn chairs on the dirt foundation. Have enjoyed every one of your videos. Can’t wait for the deck pour. Awesome house.
sure you would love a wrap around covered porch, I have concrete porch screened in, all metal. love it
Happy new year and best wishes for 2021. I hope you will be able to finish the house soon. It is becoming beautiful. Greetings from Scotland
The composite deck looks good!! 2 pieces of advice, puddle the deck where it bears on the beams. You don’t have to heat up the beams. Gets some Lincoln electric 6022 and puddle weld the deck. Also you should button punch your laps being that you have a large span between beams. That deck is designed for button punching, it keeps your seams from busting!!!
We screwed the laps every 12"
Arc welding is the way to go with that stuff. He could handle it.
@Guildbrook Farm. That should be fine if your using “ Lap screws” lap screws have a fine pitch and hold the 2 plies of the deck tighter. May I ask you a question? Why did you chose not to use a transition strip where you transition the deck sheets the other way?
Looking forward to seeing the deck completed. I’m curious to see how the concrete will look. Hope the weather holds out for you. Happy New Year
Happy New Year to the four of you from Kingston Ontario, and also to your neighbours who helped and to the companies that have kindly sponsored you - may they become filthy rich as a result.
And thanks for sharing - I started watching y'all when you were still chasing chickens and canning at your old place.
Happy new year!! Awesome job on those pans!!
You have a reason to toot your own horn. You have done an amazing job!
Happy New Year and the deck looks amazing. Appreciate you two sharing your adventure with us. Here’s to a healthy, warm and safe new year
Mike
Happy New Year Jeremy, Jamie & the girls! Hope you have a Blessed Year! Aloha from Hawaii!
Happy New Year!!! Your new home is coming along beautifully. What a view you'll have since your at the top!!

Happy new year to you and your family
Happy New year
So glad to see a new video from you
That's one heck of a deck.
Very thoughtful in everything your family does to ensure it lasts. Love the concrete, did you pick a custom floor plan or off a site with link? Thanks for sharing!
I designed the house from scratch
You are probably just annoyed as we followers are, Weather plays a big part in doing the job as you said,!! dont realise the cold and wind as we watch, but still worth the watch, Hope you had a great Christmas & Have a Very happy New year from the UK!!.
Happy New Year Guildbrook Family!
Y'all are amazing, so toot your own horn!!! Happy New Year!!!
Happy new year, the view from the deck is going to be great. I am sure glass rail panels would break the budget. I had a friend use 4"x4" 4 AWG live stock panels that he had powder coated in black. They were set between wood posts and rails but welded steel tubing would also be a good option. The black panels sort of blended in and let the view show through. Eliminated lots of painted fence boards and was quite reasonable cost wise. Make sense when the current codes call for a max 4" spacing, that's a lot of boards to maintain on your large deck.
Black cattle panels would look great
good job, HAPPY NEW YEAR
Happy new year!
Did you stop making videos? I learn so much from you all. I want to start a homestead and love your videos. I started canning because of Jamie's video on canning soup and bought the 921 and the camp chef camp stove. I hope you make more videos. You all are so smart.
We’ll have a new video hopefully this week. The weather has been a problem.
Wow the house is looking so good, nice work!
Excellent work, Jeremy. :)
Coming along great Jeremy!! I'm really interested to see how the deck comes together. I've never seen this type before. I hope you and the girls had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year and good luck in 2021
Wow well done Jeremy
Any concern about the shear strength of all that weight on the concrete ledge off the foundation walls? Loving the build! I bet you can't wait until this is finally over and you can get settled in and start working smaller projects.
It's designed for the load and has rebar ladder embedded that's specifically designed for it.
Happy new year to all!
nice project! is there a playlist?
