You do a lot of things men like me and you would dream of doing and I’m proud someone has the enthusiasm, means, grit and balls to reach for their dreams and grab with both hands. We all have it in us but only few do anything about it. I’m saying this because you have some amazing content, from one woodworker to another. It’s refreshing seeing someone living out their dreams.
You could drill a hole through the wall near/behind your stove and run it to the underside of the fire chamber so you would only be burning outside air. The natural draw up the flue pipe would be sufficient to bring in fresh air. Could be as small as 1" ID, although I'd probably find a way to experiment with that hole size to maximize the efficiency. Unless you happen to have an HVAC friend or a Mechanical Engineer who does HVAC design. Then the could probably recommend a suitable diameter and configuration. Love watching your vids and so glad you're back to producing regular content! As a wannabe carpenter, it's a joy to watch you work, especially knowing what your end goals are for all of this! I will close with the words of Mr. Spock: Live long and prosper.
It's nice how the trim pulls it all together. It's good to see a man stand up for his life and that of his family, rather than kneel for lies. Keep moving forward, never quit. You're a fine example for those who can't get off the fence. Bravo samurai!
In the future, when someone stays there or overnights in this small cabin, they will never know the amount of detail and work you put into this awesome project. Good work Samurai!
In a thermal reference, a window is a hole in the wall, a double glazed window is a smaller hole. Triple glazed, best, but you'll you'll need to sell an organ to fund them. If the inside panel of glass is cooler than the air, with the pretty high humidity you get in a waterfront location, you'll get a higher dew-point, hence the condensation. The answer is not always simple. As one comment stated, pull in the combustion air from the outside, never a bad idea. When humidity changes due to weather and all the ground moisture evaporating more, it'll diminish. Keeping internal temperature higher will help a lot, though it will be uncomfortable for you, your wife will probably love it.
Low e double glazing performs the same or better than a standard triple glazed window. Condensation attaches to the coldest surface that is typically glass but low e or double glazing keeps the surface warmer above the due point.
triple glazing presents a problem with dew on the outside if not facing the sun. On windows facing north or in shadow you can have dew on the outside well into the afternoon. Where I live we're experimenting with going back to double glazing since they now make them with almost the same performance. I live in Denmark.
Despite living next to a lake, it's still fairly cold - January in Canada - so any air coming in would get warmed by the stove and the relative humidity would drop, thus it should not condense on the inside. Now, we can't see the whole cabin, so it maybe that he has the door wide open and the air by the window is cooled enough to condense.
Stump is gone now, but there are a few more around on your property. I have had good luck burning stumps by cutting deep into them with a chainsaw and then burning a full bag of charcoal on the top on the stump in addition to starting a good wood fire around the base.
That is why we in the Netherlands have a few vertical holes 8 mm in the lower part of the window for the condensation to leak out. Around the double glass is where trapped moisture collects.
Beautiful work! Your fireplace needs make-up air to properly function. Without make-up air, it I’ll pull what it needs from wherever it can get it... causing drafts, entraining moisture into the structure. But, with such a small space, built tight, you will have condensation issues. - HVAC Tech
Good to see you've slayed the stump beast. I just finished a big bowl of Ichiban myself. Now I don't normally eat Cheez Whiz, but if you throw a couple tablespoons in your noodles it changes them up completely.
Condensation is just from your body putting off a lot of moisture into a nice warm temp inside. Blows your relative humidity way up because it's happening in such a small area, and the bottom inch of those windows is the coldest spot on them. Might legitimately need a little dehumidifier out there!
The moisture for the condensation is from yourselfl breath, sweat, etc. If you are prepared to stop living there, that should cure the condensation, but you'll miss those beautiful views. If only the lower 1" of the glass is forming condensation it is nothing to be done, or to worry about. You could try some sort of curtain, to keep the warm moist air from the relative cold surface. You make a high spec cabin, with wonderful craftsmanship, I green with envy.
Window guy here, condensation along the bottom inch or two, is strictly, 100% due to humidity and moisture in air, as well as interior vs exterior moisture, humidity and temperature. Basically, unless you run a dehumidifier all the time there’s no escaping it early morning. Also the more people in the cabin, breathing at night etc will worsen it as well as having screens on inside face as it will restrict air flow to the thermo pane. Also, piece of advice (I missed how the thermo was glazed) but I would run a “U-Dam” from the edge of thermo over air space to to wood of sash. Will reduce allowance of air and water into window unit. Bare minimum I would silicone the corners both top and bottom, to assist with fenestration. But hey, I’m just a guy. You do whatever suits you!
He used a caulking to adhere the glass to the wood sash frame, unfortunately too late for a U channel or additional thermal break of any kind. As you said, it’s likely always going to condensate during the winter. Cooking ramen in the cabin definitely won’t help! Lol.
I know it may be difficult to juggle/not feasible, but if you wrote a book (or hell, a picture book with a handful of descriptions and captions) when you build your main cabin, I would 100% buy it. Not even necessarily a "how to" but more of a "here's what my experience was like, heres some pictures of the progress".
Always impressed with the new approach to getting footage for your project. as an Ad guy making commercials for companies chasing more profit .. .it's incredible seeing the art you put into your channel. The craft in the builds and also the consideration in the editing of what is produced in the vids. Whomever you have editing is doing a fantastic fucking job. CHEERS
I used to cut logs into veneer and at the end of the day I had so many splinters in my hands that it was difficult to close my hands. I found The quickest and most painless way to get them out was to scratch across them my palm quickly and the blade would eventually grab them and flick them out. I used to dig a needle and and make an absolute mess of myself.
Definitely the best morning coffe watch on youtube. Most of the wood you are using, is it oregon pine? i like the red tone of it. I live in Sweden and swedish pine is whiter
It's the coldest surface so will always have condensation forming here first. Just the simple fact you warm this space - and then it cools will create condensation somewhere.
Heat seaks cold. Put yourself in a front seat of a pickup cab on a cold day. Where does your breath go? Yep, your windows in a small room build up faster than a big house. I'll be purchasing that good stuff you rub on wood too. Thax, wife & I like your channel.
You live in a pretty humid area, near a lake. I use a humidifier in my home and when the temperature shifts drastically (cold) I need to pay attention to the relative humidity setting, and turn it down, so the humidifier doesn't create condensation issues like what you see in your window. I think with your cabin, you're likely dealing with something similar, only you don't have anything forcing enough air to deal the evaporation of the excess humidity.
Nice small details.. I built some Greene and Greene elements into the addition I built on my last house in Maryland. The select structural Doug Fir was pretty reasonable back then. Now? Yikes! How much do you have in lumber on this 10'x10' cabin?
The house is well build and airtight, you need some kind of ventilation :) When you sleep, you use 200 ml of water every night just by breathing, and you skin use 500 ml every night :)
I believe you need a few (like 5) holes at the top and bottom of the window to generate airflow and avoid condensation, and thus prevent timber rotting. It's standard in Europe, not sure why it's not elsewhere...
thats not trugh there is no standard with this i know of the small holes on the bottom outside of the windows you see everywhere is for having a path for the water condensation happens between die outer and inner side gaskeds on the standard windows. (and some storm rain intrusion relieve) if your window have some additioanel ventilation holes its a special room ventilation system mostly on the top side of the windows the condenation he got on the bottom windows is typical in this aerea since the due point is below room tempratur in this smal area. its not well ventilated and cold fom the window and the bank below. cold air is falling down on the window taking more and more water with it and getting colder and colder. the only way to prevent this is raising the due point in this aerea or the whole window this means less moisture in the air... less moist air sucked from the outside (not realy possible) or heating and ventilating this area more just place a second wood stove ventilator or turn the one on the chimney aside to point at the window you will loose little bit more heat but i bet you will feel more comfy since the cold fallig air from the window is blocked and the warm air will heat and also dry the area
@@GoofieNewfie69 nope the condensation is on the inside of the thermo glas not between. its not a broken seal just physic old window banks had even a carved out section right below to catch the condensation water and real real old window banks had a copper or brass drain pipe trugh the wall to the inside or outside from this small catching pans (bank was stone, marble or tint) the old people who grow up without thermo windows, automated temprature regulated heating and without window seals know this phaenomen also
Humidity with a slight temperature variation with window surface and inside air temp.. reduce humidity to below 30% and it'll be reduced but then you run into dry air and breathing and dry skin issues. Steam from cooking will shoot that humidity way up there.
Lovely, lovely, lovely :) Is this Odiesoil good for machine surfaces? to get a bit of rust protection and a good slippery surface ? Just wondering if you have any experiance. Looking forward to see this cabin all done TR
I was wondering why such a small cabin for 5? people. Does the arear have a size limitation for building/cabins? Beautiful spot. God bless and stay well.
Condensation on the lower part of the windows is normal when it's cold outside and you have limited ventilation. Breathing, drying clothes etc. increases the humidity. To avid it you need to add better ventilation as the cold outside air will drop it's relative humidity when heated up inside, and the exhaust air that you let out will do the opposite. So this is why ventilation is important to avoid humidity issues. The better the ventilation, and the greater the difference between the inside and outside temperature, the dryer the inside air will become (which is what you want.)
Maybe the timber frame around the glazing unit is not a perfect thermal break? I get this on my UPVC windows and always at the bottom. I attribute it to less than perfect thermal break.
I am just wondering is it a double glazed unit that your using in your windows,Iam saying to myself that it must be because of the weather that you get ,we have them in our Apartment and we are in Scotland 🏴 just wondering folks 👍
It's not condensation. The windows are tearing up because it's such a beautiful view.
A little sriracha on those noodles will take them up another level. Thanks for sharing!
If you like spice Sambal Oleck is also 👌🏻👌🏻 on ramen!

Man, that is a beautiful view.
Love that view.
Needs Tofu, maybe some Broc and Shiitaki... Cabin's comin up a treat! Holla from NZ x
Antifog spray for mirrors works well for MINOR cases of condesation, might give it a try.
That fog is awesome love it
What an amazing location
Stump is gone now, but there are a few more around on your property.
I have had good luck burning stumps by cutting deep into them with a chainsaw and then burning a full bag of charcoal on the top on the stump in addition to starting a good wood fire around the base.
Working on a bed for my daughter. Odies Oil sounded great (I'm a Samurai fan boy, what can I say?). No shipping to Nova Scotia. Boourns.

Bro how you get a spot right on the water like that? Where is that?
Where do you get your tool belt/vest from ?

Nice small details.. I built some Greene and Greene elements into the addition I built on my last house in Maryland. The select structural Doug Fir was pretty reasonable back then. Now? Yikes! How much do you have in lumber on this 10'x10' cabin?
Drill a hole under your fireplace so it draws air from there. That will eliminate the condensation.
Maybe I missed the explanation of why so small with a family going to use it ? Very curious of the size of the cabin !
Some wood stoves can draw air from outdoors through a flexible vent pipe. Check to see if your stove can be so equipped.
how's odie's for exterior/cold? i've read its ok, but no hands on experience yet
How do I have 2 feet of snow down in the states and you're sunny and outdoor working up in Hoth?
The house is well build and airtight, you need some kind of ventilation :) When you sleep, you use 200 ml of water every night just by breathing, and you skin use 500 ml every night :)
Yo bud. What you convering the cabin with? I love the build.
Gasket around sill wood to wood will get small air leak maybe
Looking good Jessie, how long since the family have been up to see the cabin? They'll be delighted when they do finally get to see it.
Jesse how do you get your chisels so sharp ??
Could you please let me know what kind of wood is on the floor and sealing boards? Looks real good.

15:02 I thought your circ saw was smoking 🤣🤣🤣
“How dare you think you can defeat the samurai” 🤣🤣🤣
In that small of a space just breathing can cause condensation
Lovely, lovely, lovely :)

R.I.P. Stump, you will be remembered, not. Man the cabin is looking gorgeous AF, good job carpenter dude.
I was wondering why such a small cabin for 5? people. Does the arear have a size limitation for building/cabins? Beautiful spot. God bless and stay well.
what area is this it looks beautiful!
Install a 2" PCV pipe for pickup air instead of sucking air through the windows etc... You can zig zag the pipe to act like an air tape to hold heat.
Also boiling water. Respiration and evaporation (sweat) contribute to high RH
Maybe next time on stumps would be to winch them out and throw into water for natural habitats for fish and a good food supply fishing around them.
That's a jumbo-sized bowl of ichiban 😁
Samurai, My Senco guns have all recently pooped out on me.. Not sure I'll get more of them.. What other options do you think are decent?
Maybe small drainage holes on the bottom of the windows. My house windows have them but still get moisture on the bottom
Condensation on the lower part of the windows is normal when it's cold outside and you have limited ventilation. Breathing, drying clothes etc. increases the humidity.

So this is why ventilation is important to avoid humidity issues. The better the ventilation, and the greater the difference between the inside and outside temperature, the dryer the inside air will become (which is what you want.)
Condensation between the panes means the seal is broken and the gas has leaked out, live with it or replace it.
@@GoofieNewfie69I believe the condensation is on the inside of the window (can be wiped off) so most likely not that.
Ichiban is the only ramen.
Snow all gone already? What happened to winter?
That’s winter on the West Coast! Snow doesn’t stay for more than a few days usually.

Hey, what video editor do you use to photoshop that sunshine and blue sky into your videos? 😁
Why is the insulation still visible on the outside
More ventilation will fix the condensation on the windows.
