    Man just thinking back to the little muddy pit you guys settled that slide in camper onto the first year and now a house, baby, really nice woodshed/storage/sawmill! Truly awesome you 2! As a father of 4 one of which is probably your age I commend you and am super proud of you as well!

    Over a year ago, you both indicated you weren’t sure what you were doing. Now, look at you. You have a home, a great storage barn and so many other things/projects. We are very proud of both of you!

    For what ever reason these two can’t seem to catch a break from comments that are worded in very negative unhelpful ways… just as there are ways to frame a house there are ways to phrase a suggestive/helpful comment. What ever happened to common decency? God bless their youth, and their willingness to explore life! May they come to know God will guide their foot steps.

    The shed loft flooring looks good, different lengths and colors gives it character. Doesn't matter what everybody thinks just as long as you feel good about it. Keep doing what you are doing. Your home is coming together great.

    I admire Alaskan couples working together, constructing their home. I like the different shades of the floor, Cody. You use what you have, improvising and re-cycling material with your community. Blessed to have neighbours who look out for each other. That’s a pretty good storage space. 🇦🇺 fan.

  • @ritaruff9696

    Compared to last year at this time you two are way ahead of the game. Don’t listen to anybody that thinks you are not. This is your life and it is not an easy one. Most of your complainers are probably sitting in an air conditioned or electric heated house just imagining what they would do. We all do that! It is a human trait. Just know you are making your place into a home and you get to enjoy the pace and goals you set for yourself . If you don’t take time to enjoy life and each other, well that would be beyond sad. Take care and this is from a 71 year old woman that wonders how life went by so quickly !

    Wow, you better sister another joist alongside that one we were looking at as you first started laying the flooring. It is seriously cracked right through the middle for more than half the length. Storing wood up there will put a good load on it that it is in no shape to bear. Nice job. Always feels nice to get more stuff under cover.

    Hi 🤗,
    You all are making such PROGRESS... Its a wonderful thing to see. I'm soooo HAPPY for you all !!!
    The room that the freezer is in has walls with gaps in between the slats. Do you have any WORRIES in ref. to rodents looking for a place to live will climb up into the back of the freezer & will eventually chew up the wires ?? Perhaps a grate made of some sort of steel with tiny tiny holes allover can be fabricated and attached to the back of the fridge to keep the rodents out & allow the motor of the freezer to get all the air it needs.
    Thanks for Sharing

    Please do take the comment about sheathing the shed seriously-a sudden windstorm could wreck all the hard work you have done, destroy your sawmill and freezer along with the food inside.
    Do not ask how I know this...

  • @aday1637
    @aday1637 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +14

    PS: There's nothing in that shed you built to prevent racking (from wind) and falling over. Just don't be in it when it goes. It's a very unstable design. End to end is okay but side to side is very unstable. The more weight you add to the upper part the more unstable. You need to sheath the sides. Either plywood or 45 degree angle planking is essential and immediately. I saw a shed built like that collapse with someone inside about 30 years ago. It was awful. And the poor dude building it thought all was fine until it suddenly let go and fell over onto him.
