For a small cabin a simple shed roof works well. For a larger one, the tall side and short side have to differ by too much to get the water to run off OK. In that case you switch to a peaked roof of some type.

If you're getting up to a point of worrying about water running off the roof you gone past the point where you had a tiny cabin I mean 10×12 is small but still doable for most people

Lol , I was trying to think of who he reminded me of , spot on.

Agreed. Nailed it.

My thoughts exactly!

Bob Villa

I totally agree & enjoy that "talking to a friend" style.

we do too but they used used glass. It seems foolish not to put in another piece of glass in an area that obviously will get cold.

You can get insulated glass that has two quarter-inch panes with a half-inch air space. They work just as well.

Yes, you would get condensation with a single pane.

No you dont

Yes. Recently double glazed my house - made an amazing difference

Jocob Liao- DO IT! I always said stuff like that when I was your age and I regret not taking action. So make a plan and do what you really want to !!! (yes you will have to wait until you can actually buy some property!)

“find property” - so, some bad news about that…

DO IT, if you find a place. Look into cob homes as well. Now is the time, because what the future has in store is not a future most will want a part of. Go off grid. Become self sustainable. Trust in god in everything you do.

I'll help you find the land. :D

I first got the itch for this life when I was about 18/19 and the older I get the more I fall in love with this style of living. There’s never a boring moment, there’s always something to do, the work feels meaningful and gives me purpose so it is always so worth it. Bushradical said something in the part 1 video that I’ll paraphrase: “humans are meant to build their own house, it’s in our DNA”. I’ll take it a step further and say humans are meant to live in nature and use their labor for growing food, woodworking, welding, raising animals, etc. and not to be stuck behind a desk in front of a screen. A simple life and living in harmony with nature is the best/healthiest way to live for most people-basically the exact opposite of what our society and mass media leads you to believe you need for peace and happiness.

That might be a little scary having Dave sitting next to your bedside.😆

I was just thinking that same thing lol like the bushes baked beans commercial

I like his voice too. Reminds me of my first love. I love how the two of you work together. My husband and I working together is a show called This F%$&ing House. 😂. Remember the old Disney wild life shows. He sounds like the narrator of that.

I so agree I just love listening to him.

Bryce Matheson ditto👍😆...

Wasn’t super comfortable he doesn’t have a clean out tee. Especially since he cut cost and went with what looks like single wall pipe on the outside. Soot and creosote is going to build up quick as the exhaust starts to cool.

Think about reversing the smoke pipe sections from the wood stove by using the female end first from the stove connection.This will help prevent the creosote from running down the outside of the pipe connection seams after some usage . Still an Excellent video.

Yea ama have to learn that one.

@@jackforhome823 I just did.

No kidding. Simple tools, smart guy.

That's EXACTLY what I was thinking!

It’s not a great sound, but I doubt I’ll ever hammer a nail again.

They are called framing nailers or nail guns. No one uses impact drivers to frame.

@@raicebannon1936 I do, but I don’t frame stuff for a living. That would be too expensive and take too long.

I would love to have the kind of relationship you and your wife have. In my community its hard to find a good woman like that.

really discovering this ... Says volumes about being married to the right person and having similar interests... guess i didnt chose well..#whenpeoplemisguideyou

Life partners DO exist... God provides...

@@izzaborealisdries6896 modern "guidelines" around this are frequently misleading. Historically, cultures have recognized that people don't stay the same, they grow. Sometimes, they grow apart. That's not a mistake, and I hope you can allow yourself some grace and give both of you permission to grow. Be the example you need for your self, and I hope you find your path to happiness.

You could do it!

I am building a little rougher cabin on my channel if you want some ideas check it out!

Hi nice to meet you I love you ❤️

subdued* to pt1

Just use the swear jar you inevitably need to create for this project to fund the furnishings and you will be living like a king/ queen

Maybe your current or next girl will build one for you.

Have to agree with the "anyone can afford it". There's a lot of people struggling just to have a few extra dollars at the end of the month, and this assumes being able to afford a piece of property and the annual taxes on it to begin with. I would have been happier with a title of "almost anyone can afford".

@@NorthernKitty I think that is unfair to lay on Dave. Yes there are people who are struggling. There are also people who have saved, used long term planning to build and live their dreams. They've also developed a skill set to allow them to do things cheaper. Dave and Brooke have worked hard, developed skill sets, bought remote property that is less expensive, sourced and saved materials at reasonable costs that allow them to do this. Why not celebrate a win instead of trying to correct this man over a matter of wording and others views of the world? A bungalow on the Bird Streets in LA right now is about 25 million. Everything is relative.

@@5thdimension625 Lol! That would be good. Now that my grandchildren have kids, and live 3000 miles away, I can't expect much help! Maybe if I win the lottery (magically), I'll hire some elves to build my house in the deep woods.

@@dianajean4837 I didn't lay anything on Dave, I simply agreed with the original poster that it's more accurate to say "most" people and not "all". Nor did I fail to "celebrate a win", my OTHER comment here was: "Thanks so much for sharing this, inspiring dreams!!" I thought Thomas made a fair point and merely explained why. For all either you or I know, Dave may fully agree in retrospect. There are a ton of people with nothing right now despite a lifetime of saving and planning. I just felt we shouldn't ignore that reality. I'm truly sorry if you feel they're somehow at fault for their own circumstances and not worthy of any consideration, or perhaps just wanting to practice denial that they exist. Finally, if you were so interested in creating more positivity in the world, you wouldn't have turned my comment into something it wasn't, trying to pick a fight with me.

Those are the idiot millennials who don't know what a hammer is.

Tell em Prison Mike!

who? can't tell now that the counter was removed LOL

o yes , coffee feet up and zen out :)

Dave has a ton of great videos! I think I’ve watched them all. Got started one day and just had to binge! Now I watch Brooks channel a lot too.

Same. This made my day! Thanks for posting!

Man I have been stalking you on youtube 🤪 Finally a Man and His Wife who talk like real folks and don't try to make themselves sound more important and don't have more tools than since. Use what you need and that's it. Thank You, ...from a Dad who's cooked his whole life up until last year. Now I am trying to learn carpentry🤔 Haha 😂 You could say my carpentry skills are kinda like the way I have Smoked Bbq Pork, for the last 35+ year's "slow and low" 😏👌

Thanks

Ditto!

Agreed!

Absolutely! Great Couple working together!

This please!

💯 yes

You can find someone, somewhere, to downvote anything. Kittens baking apple pies - somebody out there will downvote it. Apples are too tart! Kittens don't have opposable thumbs! You left the crust out too long before baking. Some people are just killjoys.

Door should open outward, only thing that I would definitely do different. Reason more space inside and harder to be kicked or forced in and also for escape reasons, a fire, multiple people, it's easier to get out.

Hi nice to meet you

@@NoNORADon911 Well. so long as prankster doesn't screw in a plank across the doorway while you're sleeping, or there's a four-foot snow drift after a blizzard!

@@paulh6591 True there is always different things to consider. When I was 19 (30 years ago) I spent the night at my then GFs apartment, a jealous guy tied a rope from the inswing doorknob to the railing outside, then in the am I could only open the door just enough to squeeze my arm through to cut the rope.

The two of them were on the show "Alone" and I thought the same thing :) I won't spoil it for you, but needless to say, they built a very cool shelter. Brooke's "temporary shelter" was impressive on its own.
