You go girl! I’m a beginner ish diy girl and at 56 I’m amazed at what I’ve accomplished! Now I want to build a cabin! Luv these videos and how exciting about your shed!! Great and inspiring!!

You are an inspiration to this almost 59-year old! (day after Christmas.) I too love the satisfaction of doing my own building as well, and hope to be keepin' on keepin' on when I'm your age and beyond, as is also my wish for you! Keep it up!

Wow!! You're amazing! I'm the girl half of this team and our experience has been so awesome I can hardly believe it! Who would have thought... Good going! Now I've got to follow you to check out your story! 🙌

Good for you. I have no carpentry skills and I don't think I could do it

I'm endeavoring to build a cabin on my own at 53. You inspire me!!

Too many overheads😂

hahaha I think you accidently hit that 2 key or that 3 key xD or maybe that 5 key. But gratz on building your own log cabins. Good job!

Same here man, I think for my first house I'm gonna find a plot of land, and do almost exactly what he did. I could totally live in something like this for a few years

SAME!

Same

Same. I am 33 years old and all I want in this world is a small plot of land in the mountains to build a cabin/homestead on. Modern society is not for me. I want to go back to this way of life.

I know him and Brooke are so inspirational with their can-do attitude.

wow, thanks

@@Bushradical You're awesome DW! I enjoy this build the most, very clean Sir.

He's about my size and it's officially referred to as "Winter Ready"

@@jerbear7952 😂Winter ready 😂😂😂✌🏼💚

I agree, such a pleasure to watch every time! God bless Dave and you too Brooke!❤❤❤

thx

Agreed.

lol. Why would be afraid? Ridiculous fictional oppression. Christians are still very much a large majority in the world. Try being a black atheist lesbian.

Agreed. It is so inspiring to watch Dave and Brooke build. My dad was this type of person who could build anything, and I have always truly admired that. And as you say, I love to watch Dave in this video simply bow his head and acknowledge his gratitude. Simplicity and serenity at its very best. :)

Dave plays his own music. He records it and uses it on his channel. We get a 2 for 1 that way 😄

It is lovely

I'm sorry to hear about your brother.

So sorry for your loss. I lost my husband on October 27 so I can relate. We live out in the country and enjoyed watching these videos to help us learn how to build and do for ourselves. So hard now trying to learn to live without him. You're in my prayers. 💙

Примите, соболезнование!❤Это печально когда уходит частица сердца и души с близкими людьми, как и печально, когда по злой воле больных политиков гибнут люди

Saying a prayer that you're doing good & going strong!! God Bless!!

Thanks

Hej I agree with you love this UKposts channel and it is very relaxing to watch his videos. And it's almost like you're camping yourself when you watch his videos take care and have a nice week.

I’m never going to do this but I totally loved watching this. Thank you

This man doesn't realize how EXPENSIVE lumber is these days!

@jonothandoeser do you suppose that someone is giving Dave all his lumber?

Is that him playing guitar? I loved it!

Yeah at first I was like wtf is he doing that for and then I though oh wow that’s way better.

For sure love this idea.

Its a lot of work, and double the cost for subflooring not to mention time, I'd tyvek or reflectix under the joists, (something breathable would be nice) and then just put in the insulation from the top if you even needed the extra R value.

There are two sides to every story.

What Ricardo said!!!!!

I agree! ❤

Hi Ricardo, I agree, with you. Dave is calm and informative and he gets the job done. 1st Class.

rubbish

Yes indeed 😅 I Watch the entire video because he shows everything and it’s awesome 👌🏽

i wish to be like you one day

Is your attitude in the direction of man's advancement as thinking is our nature? Or is you attitude based on bring mankind back to a primitive existence? "Sincerely, the now 24 year old, debt free, self sufficient man." So was the caveman.

@EarthSurferUSA My attitude is that you shouldn't confuse advancement with materialistic possession. And that if we deprogram the idea of a 5 bedroom 4 bathroom $900,000 dollar house being necessary to "advance" and begin to live modestly. We will shift our focus on the things that truly matter in this world. Whatever that may be in our own minds. Consumerism and being better than the person next to us has invaded the subconscious of a large portion of America as of late. Especially as technology advances. I think your misunderstanding of my point doesn't come from a position of misunderstanding itself. But possibly more from a confusion between the words "primative" and "minimalist" because my cabin is larger (35×30 with 9 foot ceilings and a loft and a 16×30 foot porch to be more precise. But I built it all on family land. I did it piecemeal, bit by bit, and I did it without taking out strenuous mortgages that will put me and my soon to be fiancé in debt for the next 30 years. I built bigger because we want children. I built with HVAC. Because I live in Texas and summers can be in excess of 100° for weeks on end. But my house is simple when compared to most homes. That doesn't make me a Neanderthal. It makes me and my wife to be people that understand that sometimes some cattle and a modest home with people that love you are more important than the price tag on the things around you. THAT is the direction my attitude is in.

@EarthSurferUSA I'd venture to ask, as someone who clicked on, and hopefully watched this video in its entirety. What is your view on it? Do you think simple homes advance us and let us focus on more important things. Or do you think modernity helps us stave off "primative" habits?

@@starwarsfan5001 my 2 cents... If you know and value what truly matters the answer can't be easier. Good luck to you and your family, God bless🙏

thanks

What you really need to know, you learn by doing.

@@Bushradical loo

Wow! That's inspiring Liz!

She likes the strong menzes. lol

It's not a house in really isn't difficult to build.

He's been doing it for 21 years. It's all "muscle memory" now - lol.

That circular saw appeared in nature.. cool build though, the drop in floor is great

Well, pretty sure a cabin only needs a drawing or two, and he probably did that himself too.

@@haydencourtney7419 Circular saw,---built by man's nature. by our nature, we are smarter than Beavers. If we were as free as Beavers, we would have built a lot more by our nature. Man is part of nature too, or we would not be here.

We'll follow along

@Lillian Sawyer what does gseg mean? 🤔

😂🎉🎉🎉😢

thanks

thanks

thanks

Yeah I was just thinking about how I was at twenty years old, I was high energy just trying to fly through projects with an attitude. I'm 42 now and alot calmer so I have to laugh at how I used to operate

Good luck to you on the hip replacement & God bless. Merry Christmas Jimmy.

I’m 52 and hoping to get my hip replacement next week so I can get back to my goats.

Far from perfection..

thanks

Right on!

I love all the background sounds as well !! Wish I knew what the music was ...🥰

@@epatha44I might be mistaken but I think that’s Dave’s own guitar playing. On top of everything else he can do, he plays the guitar quite well!

Thanks

yup thats me playing guitar

Its like a magic onion! WELL done on the soft noodling background play!

Thanks !

Thanks JIm

Thanks

When I'm in Fairbanks I eat a TON of Thai food as there are several good Thai restaurants. I would love to visit your country.
