I have had your grandfather's words in my head for the last week. "You can nail a lot of boards together for $600 a month" 🙂

I'm glad you like this book. It sounds like a very useful and informative resource for shed-building enthusiasts. ukposts.infoUgkxzaRUJNcbypw-fRBDbqqz43ULIa-1EGP- The author seems to have a lot of experience and knowledge on how to build sheds of different styles and purposes. You must have learned a lot from his tips and examples. The photos are also impressive, they demonstrate the quality and beauty of the sheds. The book itself is also well-made, with glossy, thick paper and a soft cover that is pleasant to touch. This book is a wonderful choice. blush

I truly appreciate that you honored God by praying before you ate, thank you. Such a marvelous cabin, so jealous.

It's very rare to see anyone pray over their meals anymore. It's nice to see someone thanking God for their meal. Thx for that

I absolutely love how you hung up your grandpas saw what a perfect touch

I'd rather have a cabin in the woods like this than a mansion in the Hamptons. Amazing job, Dave.

So many builders don’t build a a porch. It gives you a place to get out of the snow, gives you a chance to slit and stack wood. So glad you did this for you and your guests and think of the stories you will have to pass along

You are detailed yet simple and clear with your instructions. Your grandfather would be proud. You seem to be a very appreciative and respectful man. This is what are world is missing, back to our root core values. Like generations before

Love the prayer before the meal like a good God-fearing man!

Your videos are like watching a PBS special, reading a calming book, and drinking coffee by the fire all at the same time. Almost ASMR at times... very enjoyable.

My parents saved & bought a 1932 Cape Cod in '75, 10 yrs after graduating hs, marrying, & moving from TN to NY. It was fixer upper & dad did everything from the floors to the roof as well as outside (grapevine trellises, rosebushes to grace the kitchen windows, putting up a shed, lean to for the wood. The first yr, they bricked up the fireplace and put in a wood burning stove. He'd work alongside a cutter after his shifts on the LIRR & bring home the extra. Best decision ever! That stove heated two levels within 45 minutes and kept the oilman visits to once a year unlike the neighbors who had him out every other month starting in October 😮. I'd help him chop, season & rotate the wood throughout the summer to early fall, bringing the drier pieces to the back porch, splitting kindling, etc I remember helping him hang gutters, put up paneling (a true '70s experience 😂), replace the formica countertops, pull up the linoleum flooring and replace w tiles, replace piping, solder copper, painting rooms, putting up floor to ceiling mirrors to add depth, so much over those 20 yrs until I married and left. Then when he suffered a double stroke in 2017 and Alzheimer's set in, he eventually became wheelchair bound. I built a portable ramp from plywood, sanded & covered w outdoor carpet & put double looped handles on it from (get this) yardssss of telephone cord 😂 so his caregiver could lift it in & out of the doorway to take him outside. It tickled the neighbors to see his daughter donning his toolbelt! I'm honored to be able to follow in his footsteps in at least being able to take care of my own house (and cars, yep, he was THAT dad! I even went to work in the svc dept of a dealership all through high school & into college. There's NOTHING like the power of being able to know when a mechanic is trying to rip you off😂 I'm screening in a patio next😊 Thank you for the memories. ~Best to you

This seriously makes me want to build a little cabin for myself. I've never built anything bigger than a birdhouse. So it's a bit intimidating. It just must feel amazing to stay in something you built all in your own.

if i were in need to use a cabin in the woods, i would leave some dollars and a note saying thanks a lot for building this, you saved my life.

These two videos alone beats watching any baseball, basketball, or football game any day of the week.

When you were nailing the frame I knew I recognized Larry Hauns style. He was a Master!

Watched Part one 2 weeks ago. Super happy there is a part 2 now. This has been great to watch. A cabin in the woods is always great to have.👍👍

My older son goes out to his dad's cabin by himself every chance he can if he's not working. His wife calls it his Recharge time. Seeing your videos makes me so happy to know he takes the time to mentally and physically take care of himself. Everyone should have a cabin in the woods.

What I love about this is that all his tools and equipment are truly used. We know he has been in this trade or craft for a long time.

I love the way you and Brooke silently give thanks to the lord before each meal. Far too few do that any more. AND you give such good simple info on what your doing. You make it easy to understand and give the urge to want to try also!

I was born and raised in LA all my life and I’m 28 years old. Truth be told I’ve always been envious of people who live in areas like this and can be in the woods and create/build things. I accidentally stumbled across your channel and hope you’re enjoying that wonderful cabin you’ve built!

As old-school as the tablesaw is, I'd prefer it over today's versions. It's cast iron and belt driven as opposed to cast aluminum and direct drive, therefore less vibration. I love how you make the most out of the tools you have. 👍

You're videos remind me of Dick Pronicke ,who built an log cabin in the alaska bush an lived in it for decades.I really enjoy watching.Great job.

Really like this guy. Not at all the typical hipster chef doing things like this. He’s talented, basic, complex, and fascinating all at the same time!

It's great! My shed has been completed and it turned out nice looking and sturdy and it is way better than the sheds that many of my neighbors had put up. Of course, I'm pleased with the outcome and this Ryan's ukposts.infoUgkxGZedDTcDfgD7fG_uU4esfx_EgxzlY2_1 Plans was extremely useful to me as a guide.

I usually don’t comment, but I really must say that the cinematography of your videos, the calm, the gorgeous music and the rugged feel really make me feel like I’m back up in the mountains. Here’s to your videos tiding me over until the summer!

I love everything about this video. The cabin, your moccasin slippers, the coyotes howling and the beautiful scenery! Your food looks delicious too! Please keep the videos coming sir!

What a good man. When he prayed before eating. Lucky wife! He can do everything and with a great attitude!

It must be so comforting to know there's nothing you can't build , repair or problem solve. You've learned so much at earth school!👏💗

Oh, I’m so thrilled there’s a part 2!!!!

You’re doing everything right, brother. Nice music, a positive, humble attitude, and an awesome work ethic. Plus, you don’t take yourself too seriously and you’re thankful for what you have. You’re blessed, my friend. Thanks for this series!

Love sitting here being lazy with a glass of rum watching someone else work hard. Great work!

Enjoying all your and Brooke's channel. I was taking in this episode when my dog, resting quietly on my lap perked her ears towards the speakers, keenly hearing the coyotes. Great video, scenery and audio.

Back to basics. Love watching these videos. Seeing Dave saying Grace before his meal makes you realise how far we have come away from being thankful. I have everything I could possible need, Yet I'm still unhappy! Keep up the great work.

I don't remember what i was looking for when i happened upon your video. I watched from start to finish and thoroughly enjoyed it. I lost my husband of 41 years this past August. We spent our time together living in big cities where the employment was. My husband had always planned on our moving to the country and living in a cabin after retirement. I wish he could have recognized his dream. Thank you so much for sharing.

I love how you pray before your meal. Giving thanks is a perfect way to start anything! 🙌

Love the old crosscut saw. My Dad had one which he inherited from his Dad and the handle on his looked a lot like the handle on yours. Brought back memories of me watching him use it. He also had an old belt driven table saw that he had to be careful of when using and of course admonished us kids to stay away when he was cutting wood. Good times. Glad you finished off the cabin as I was wondering about that after the first video. I know there are still things to finish, but it's certainly looking good.

I've always had an aspiration to build my own house or cabin but wrote it off because I thought it required skills I'd never have. Your channel brings me a lot of joy and has helped me realize that my dream is very doable with some time and effort

Really like how the cabin is comin' along. And the fact it's a solo build with old school tools. My G-pa is smiling. Looking forward to see you and Miss Brooke build a fire, have a meal, and christen your home. GB :)

Hey man just wanna say your videos are awesome and I admire your work ethic. I’m 28, fell on some hard times and my parents were gracious enough to let me move back home. This is not ideal, renting an apartment for years has not been ideal and I’d love to be able to do something like this. There’s got to be an immense sense of pride sleeping under a roof you built yourself

I love watching you. Your voice is so relaxing. Your wife is the same way. You both are just so easy to be around.

We need more channels like this. Aside from peacefulness your videos provide, they provide even a bigger value IMO.. That is, to not over complicate things when it's not needed. Keep it simple if it's simple.

Man I wish you had your own Netflix series. I could watch you and Brooke build cabins and camp all day.

Say a prayer, love it. God has blessed you beyond belief. 🙏🏽

I absolutely love the love ,respect and honor you gave by placing your Grandfather's saw above the shelf I spent many happy hours as a 9 thr 12 girl sawing and hammering in my Grands basement.( He had a saw just like that..that I used. )Ty for endearing memories

Watching part 1 and 2 was the most relaxing, informative and entertaining 66 minutes I've spent in a long time. Looking forward to part 3.

Idk why I’m so addicted to these videos! Love how humble you are man I hope one day I can build something like this on my families property 🙏🏻

I really enjoy your videos and your wife Brookes videos. I love watching how you build things and how you live. I think you guys are awesome

I appreciate the pleasure of sharing your day and night in this magical place. Thanks!!

I have an old summer pasture home in the Austrian Alps at 1000 meters elevation. It was built in stages, with the oldest bits about 600 years old. Although I didn’t built it, I’m fascinated by the techniques used by the herders who did. It would be too simple to say that it is built using simple techniques: while the cuts and methods are easy to understand, it’s amazing how precise the fitment is. Basically none of the cuts are straight, the tools used were primitive, and the is not a nail or screw in any of it. The house itself is HUGE. Three stories high, with space for animals and equipment - today taken up by bedrooms, of course. It sleeps 18 easily. All this built with what appears to be raw lumber from the area, with no nails and handmade hand tools (some of these are still in the basement). It’s nice to be able to go there.

It's been a real treat to watch how your cabin has been progressing. Makes me want a off grid cabin even more! Keep up the awesome work!

sure enjoy your vids Dave. Relaxing and informative. Always about the project and never about you.

My dad built us a large playhouse when we were young and went on to build three of our homes. I grew up with the scent of fresh wood. Lovely. My son and my brother spent this summer building a screen porch on his garage on a property in northern Wisconsin. I am so glad these carpentry skills in my family have survived three generations. I love watching these videos. They are relaxing and wonderful to see. Great work.

🍿 ready, here we go, first part was awesome 👍✌

Your videos are helping me get through a tough time in my life. Very peaceful. Keep up the good work!

I'm only 17 years old but i love watching this type of videos, so satisfying!

Light up some candles, put a nice couch in there. Big furry rug and mini fridge filled with your favorite beer. Small tv since it’s very small. That would make a good trip to the cabin. Love it man!!

Sitting watching this with my Christmas lights on in the background and kicked back in a chair is my idea of a good time. Looks great!

We need more people like you on this earth. God bless you Dave. Can't wait to learn something new in your next video.

Loved your videos, but what’s most important is that you gave thanks for the food on your plate. It’s the small things that matter. Great video ❤️🤟

It’s nice to see a brother giving thanks for his food.

Being retired I think if I had a cabin like this, I’d spend most my time right there, no matter what the weather is. I sure hope there’s a part 3

Part 3 PLEASE. Keep us updated with all the improvements on this awesome cabin

HAPPY TO SEE YOU GIVING THANKS 🙏 TO GOD BEFORE ENJOYING THAT WONDERFUL MEAL! Blessings

I was captivated by this video, this man's attitude is awesome.

I cannot tell you how comforting this channel is. Thank you for what you do. It’s the most relaxing thing on the web!

As someone who lives in NYC, it can be really hard to find some peace and quiet sometimes. I really appreciate your videos - they help me mentally escape for a little bit.

My fav part is when you sit and pray over your breakfast. My prayer is for you to get closer to God even more.

gotta respect a man who says his prayers before he eats!

Been watching your videos for quite a long time now, and just wanted to say I appreciate how you do things. From building, sharing information, all the way to how you produce your video's. It's nice work bud.

I love your videos, the simplicity, the love of peace and quiet. Doing it old school with attention and caution. This video the cadence of your narration made me think of Dick Proenneke. Can't wait to see more. Thanks for what you do and sharing with us all.

I don’t Watch TV but are watching all this piece of art you both do. Much blessings amd love from Rhode Island

"I'm going to use the safety gear the old timers had, caution and attention". I didn't know you were a poet too. What a great video!

These videos are pure delight. Peaceful, wonder-Full and so fun!

That looks like the most peaceful, yet productive weekend. Wish I had the land and the skills to build a cabin in the middle of the woods. Thanks for the videos.

I love the WARMNESS you guy's always bring into these NEW builds... THANK YOU !!! ❤

after a stressful week at work, a quiet cabin like this look 💯

I've never wanted to build a cabin in my life until these videos. These are just amazing and the cabin looks amazing. Keep being radical!!

You are excellent at taking us through the "process" and that is greatly appreciated. You cover all angles with the camera which makes us feel like we are a part of the building etc.

I just loved part 1 and 2. These are great entertainment for someone like me. In my younger days I spent a lot of time in the woods. Built a log cabin years ago. I'd planned to spend my retirement years doing something like this. Unfortunately cancer had other plans for me. You keep making them and I'll keep watching them. Great job and a lovely cabin.

This was awesome Dave. This off Grid cabin is a little piece of heaven. Enjoy it! Great series! I hope you continue with updates and adventures you encounter there!

This is great Dave! I can’t wait for part 3 I love the content and the way you put it out here for us to watch. It’s a great inspiration!

Another benefit of a woodstove besides heating and cooking in one unit, is that you have ashes to get lye from for cleaning. And a deep window sill is also good for growing herbs that you can use to cook your food with like chives, rosemary, basil, thyme, oregano, sage, coriander, dill, and parsley.

Great video's on this cabin looks so peaceful. you did a fantastic job hope you get years of enjoyment for you and your family. God bless.

I love everything about this video and the words your grandfather said plus you prayed for your Stability in life and the food you ate. What a good man you are. Love your builds

These videos have brought a lovely sense of serenity while watching. So calming. Also, nothing made me happier than when the doorknob was installed.

It's my desire that I can live this type of wood cabin. It's marvellous. You made masterpiece. You are a master.

I love that you give thanks to God for your meals. Very cool.

Beautiful work.. I love watching your videos👍🏾👍🏾 Keep 'em coming.. from the.. 🇺🇸 Navajo Nation, Arizona USA 🇺🇸

This is the most wholesome thing in the world. I can't build a table better yet a cabin, but I appreciate seeing it come to life, and DEFINITELY get the vision of making something for yourself and living by your own rules

You Sir, have my biggest respect. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

When you said Grace before eating it made my day

Dave, I Love the first video where you essentially built your off grid cabin and this one ( the second video ). Your videos are relaxing and calming. Also It was surprising ( and nice ) to see someone pray. I thank you for posting your vids. You stay radical too.

Love your videos you help make what most people would think impossible for them and break it down for people like us so we can get a sense on what to do.

Giving thanks to God before eating that delicious breakfast. Love it!

I’ve spent the last hour or so watching him put together this cabin and it was nice and relaxing the total opposite of a time waster also i have learnt a lot from just two videos and I’m definitely going to watch more

I really like the narration. I’ve watched a number of cabin builds and this was the easiest to watch and listen to. Both videos are thorough and concise without feeling rushed or slow.

Bushradical is absolutely the best youtube channel i have seen. The filming is exceedingly great, the skills and techniques are fascinating to watch and learn, and the narration is both comforting and inviting like an old friend. I just can't say enough good about your videos, Thanks Dave for sharing your knowledge, skill and time with us.

All the guitar 🎸 work is done by this man !!! Remember that He’s doing it all With the lord Ofcourse But wow Filming set ups Editing Building Voice over The magic music 🎶 and I love it all

WHAT AN AWESOME, BEAUTIFUL, PEACEFUL AND BLESSED PLACE! 👍 WELL DONE! Blessings

Spent the morning with my 7 year old daughter watching parts 1& 2. Can’t wait to finish.
