Some advice regarding the electrics, plumming and bathroom, you need to hire certified craftpeople to do that othervise if something happens the insurance will NOT pay.
Glad to see multiple apple trees as they need to cross-pollinate. Perhaps the other fruit trees as well? You will love the shade and the fruit in a few years. Beautiful lovely living room area. Gardens are tough particularly when you break new ground as you are. I am hoping you talk with locals about what grows at your latitude. Also, I would love to see you do a video on driving into the closest village/town. It is lovely to know a bit about shopping and supplies--obviously timber and other renovation items are about.
Hi! The other fruit trees come in pairs as well. Hope it will give us lots of fruits in the future. Thank you for watching our video and sharing your thoughts with us. Very helpful!
Hej, normally i don`t critisize others work, but this time i have to say, for healthreason only, you forgot the vaporbarrier and that will cause you trouble because of mold caused of moisture wich gets into your insulation. Instead of a plasticfoil you can also use OSB as a vaporbarrier. This can cause severe health problems to you and your family. Otherwise you do a good job in your renovation process. Thanks for sharing.
Hi! Thanks for your message and concerns! We are aware of the missing vapor barrier. Unfortunately we were misinformed by the hardware store. However, the small house will be used by us this winter, but next winter we hope to live in the big house. The small house will only be used during summer by friends and family. We hope it will not give us trouble. If so, we will have to remove the roof plates and the cladding and add vapor barrier anyway, but let's not get ahead of things and hope it will turn out okay.
Maybe the insulation is mineral wool. “Because of its greater density and water resistant properties, mineral wool acts as a vapor barrier and, unlike fiberglass, does not need an additional vapor barrier to be effective.”
That's exactly the problem, that it's mineral wool. The warm moist air condenses between the insulation and the wood, if you had wood fibre insulation it would have absorbed the moisture and transpired it through the structure, mineral wool cannot do that. You simply trap moisture, which is why you need to have a moisture barrier or a material that breathes.@@karencurley4293
That's exactly the problem, Mineral wool insulation, i.e. rock wool or glass wool, has no hygroscopic ability - it cannot absorb and release moisture. Condensation can flow right through and accumulate in places where it is difficult to dry out. Wood fibre insulation, on the other hand, can absorb the moisture and "breathe" it out. Mineral wool is open to diffusion and does not act as a moisture barrier@@karencurley4293

Love your videos. So much progress. One small request, once we’ve had a bit of the speeded up hammering noiseto give us the idea, if listening on headphones it’s quite painful and. Had to mute the sound. Looking forward to the next one.
Ahh, I was following with an interest, but it has been 3 weeks without a new video. How often do you plan to upload? Once every two weeks? Which day... I would like to follow :)
Hi! How kind of you to say! We were so busy, sorry! But we will upload a new video today or tomorrow. From now on we plan to upload one every three weeks.
IT's coming along nicely. I like to see all that insulation going in, know it will be warm and cozy. I really like the boards on the walls, nice look for the cabin. Nicely done!
Nou, jullie vallen wel in de prijzen met de ongelooflijke hoeveelheid sneeuw deze winter. Ben benieuwd hoe jullie dat beleven en waaraan je moet denken wanneer je een paar dagen de deur niet uitkomt.En hoe reageren de buren? Komen ze wel eens kijken of is dat niet aan de orde. En hebben jullie überhaupt tijd voor wat sociale contacten? Hartelijke groet, Willemien ( moeder van Evelien)
Als we zien dat er veel sneeuw aankomt slaan we nog snel boodschappen in. We hebben ook een noodvoorraad voor als het een keer echt erg is. We gaan leren of we hiermee de winter door komen. De buren zijn heel aardig. We lopen de deur niet plat bij elkaar, maar een koffie kan altijd. Ook maken ze afwisselend onze eigen weg vrij van sneeuw zodat we niet insneeuwen. Beter een goede buur dan een verre vriend gast zeker op in Zweden 😉 De afgelopen maanden hebben we ons voornamelijk gericht op het verbouwen en minder op (nieuwe) sociale contacten, maar dat gaan we de komende tijd anders doen is het plan.
You're right 👍 Should have used the vapor barrier indeed. We're misinformed by the hardware store and in a bit of a rush. We hope it will be ok because the small house will be used as a summer house for friends and family. We will do this differently in the big house.
Leuke video's. Prachtige omgeving en mooie klussen. Ik zie dat je bij het isoleren wel folie aan de buitenzijde gebruikt maar niet aan de binnenzijde. Is dat bewust? Vaak komt het meeste vocht van binnenuit de woning en die wil je niet in je isolatie hebben.
Hey bedankt voor je bericht! Het folie had eigenlijk wel gemoeten. Omdat het een zomerhuisje gaat zijn, laten we het voor nu zo. Bij het grote huis doen we het anders.
If you own some of the woodland near you why not look for dead or fallen trees, they would help you stock up with firewod and save you money. Your doing a good job.
Great to see your progress! I'm curious if you were affected by the heavy snowfall of a few weeks ago in Sweden and Norway? Which region are you actually in? Small tip, use Torx instead of Philips screws so that the bit does not slip so easily. I enjoy watching your videos and I hope they can generate some extra income for the renovation of the big house.
There was a lot of snow indeed. We're on the line of Oslo Stockholm. I do really want torx, and used it almost exclusively in the Netherlands, but it's not so easy to buy in our area.
First time watcher, subscribe to your channel. Where did you move from when you move to Sweden? I would love to live out in a place like that. Much love from Oklahoma USA Jackie 🇺🇸💖 PS I was looking back at your videos you don't put videos about about once a month is that correct?
@@bjornotter4298 oh thank you so much for telling me my husband lived in Denmark for 3 months when he was going to school there back in the 90's it was a place he said it was by a mermaid statue that was famous in Denmark. And he said also there was a place called Tiffany Park that was a drug place lol will I know there's a lot of that over there, cannabis wise, I'm talking.
Wat maak je toch een fijne video’s met je heldere uitleg van wat je gaat doen. Ondanks tegenslag vordert het werk gestaag. ❤️

Lovely...the two of you are amazing and the cabin will be perfect--for now. Winter has truly arrived. I will watch for "spring" with interest.
Hi! So kind of you! We are looking forward to spring as well

Love that owl 🦉 😊 !
You need to put moisture barrier or you will get mold in the insulation.. alt use Hunton woodfibre insulation..
Maybe the insulation is mineral wool.
“Because of its greater density and water resistant properties, mineral wool acts as a vapor barrier and, unlike fiberglass, does not need an additional vapor barrier to be effective.”
@@karencurley4293 It's glasswool, says so on the packaging.

I bet you could feel the difference as soon as you put up the insulation....
We sure did!
Amazing video thanks a lot
Glad you liked it!
Enjoy watching your videos! Please tell us more about yourselves!
Thank you! Will do!

Maybe we should kit up with ear defenders to get in the mood for your renovations 😂
Hi! Thanks for your message and your tip! Will pay attention to that in the future.
You're making great progress. The new wooden walls look nice. I really like tte beams near roof level. A great idea to repurpose where possible.
Thanks for the kind message!

Hi. Nice progress. Just wondering, don’t you need a vapor barrier on top of the glass fiber insulation and your wood?
You're right 👍 Should have used the vapor barrier indeed. We're misinformed by the hardware store and in a bit of a rush. We hope it will be ok because the small house will be used as a summer house for friends and family. We will do this differently in the big house.

@@buildaway Ah ik snap het, veel succes met bouwen!
If you own some of the woodland near you why not look for dead or fallen trees,
they would help you stock up with firewod and save you money.
Your doing a good job.
We will do that next year when we're not rushing to get a roof over our heads. Also, it will need some time to dry.
Great to see your progress!

There was a lot of snow indeed. We're on the line of Oslo Stockholm. I do really want torx, and used it almost exclusively in the Netherlands, but it's not so easy to buy in our area.
Jammer dat je niet makkelijk torx kan krijgen daar. Verder wel een beetje bouwmarkt in de buurt?@@buildaway
Half uurtje rijden voor een beetje bouwmarkt. De grotere bouwmarkten zijn wat verder maar bezorgen eventueel ook.
I wonder, are you still living in the van or did you turn it into an igloo?
No haha. No igloo for us. We moved into the cabin already. But the videos are running a bit behind.
@@buildaway Here I am reassured!
Which province of Sweden are you living in ? Congrats!
We're on the line Oslo Stockholm.

Love your videos, but the music is so annoying. 😢❤
Thanks for the tip. We're using less and less music in future videos.
