The tiny off-grid cabin my husband Dave and I built is finally done! Yip yip! After finishing the shell in about 8 days, Dave let me loose on the interior to finish it all. It was a big job- but a great learning experience. I had helped him on many of our log homes and cabin in the past but I was on my own on this one. Don't let lack of experience prevent you from DOING and TRYING! You'll learn as you go- just do it! I LOVE the way it turned out and will now take a couple days off to enjoy this little gem with my feet up and fire roaring!
Hope you enjoy and are inspired to build a cabin of your own!

The lights are powered by a portable power station that can be charged by solar. We will be adding solar to this cabin in the near future. You COULD live in a cabin this size.... we lived in a 12x12 off grid cabin for 2 years- and 6 months was with a baby. We will use cots to overnight but you could do a fold down bed like my table as well. As for bathing and cooking- just add in a tiny bar sink that drains into a bucket underneath the "kitchen" shelf- or just use a bucket. Also, buy a large kettle/pot for kettle baths. We lived for 10 years without running water in cabins- hauling our water 5 gallons at a time for cooking, drinking, cleaning, and bathing. It is possible. BASIC necessities.... that's all you need to live FREE! Thanks for watching the video everyone! Now who wants to build one?

My twenty year old daughter (after I told her about this video) said that she wished had been born in the past when you did manual labor and felt good that you accomplished important things. I sent your reply to her to show her she COULD choose to do that now. I’ll bet it would cure a lot of people’s anxiety and depression to live this way - simpler, but with a healthy set of friendships!

Been wondering if i was crazy trying to do this on my own as it's so much work BUT your video has made me remember that I CAN do this. Thanks so much for sharing the whole process, frustrations and all. I started on your husband's channel and never in my life have I watched 3 youtube videos back to back, let alone commented and subscribed. I love your cabin, the location, build, colour and interior are all just awesome. Toasting you guys with my hot choc as I type! X

I have a trick to share with you and other DIYers about the doorway threshold. You cut the 1 by wood the width of the doorway opening. Then, do not nail it in. Instead, use two or three hinges to install it so that threshold flips outward so you sweep the dirt right out the doorway. Come on, that's genius and it works. I used a piano hinge on mine. 👍🏻🇺🇸

I watch Dave's video builds and I can definitely tell that y'all are molded into one! Things you both do and the ways you do them. Pretty awesome! I actually live in a 33ft 2 bedroom camper with my granddaughter in my brothers backyard. It is definitely an amazing adventure everyday. I have 2 small dogs. I am older now and I have quite a few health problems. My Daddy taught me how to build or fix about anything. I wish I was in better health. For now, I will kick back with my granddaughter and my little dogs and just enjoy yours and Dave's videos. I also can live off the land if I had too, without an outside potty and all. Nature and it's natural beauty is such an amazing and worth while place to be! Thank you for you and your wonderful hubby sharing your adventures. Also your beautiful animals. I sure enjoy watching, it gives me something worth while to do! Great and awesome stuff Brooke! Thanks again!

Keep design of a cabin simple to minimize cutting, especially of outer walls. Plywood comes in 4' x 8' sheets, so dimension your structure in 4' increments. 8' x 8', 12' x 16', etc. Take care of your back. Some materials are heavy. Full sheets of plywood weigh about 100 pounds per inch of thickness. That means 0.50" thickness sheets weigh 50 pounds, and 0.75" thickness sheets weigh 75 pounds. Don't overestimate your abilities with other lumber pieces either. Take it from someone who knows, if you hurt your back you could be permanently screwed. Shoulders too. I've had all those surgeries among other orthopedic ones and none of it's fun. Not fun to injure, and not fun to fix.

Your approach to life is admirable. I know people who have 100 times your money and have probably 1/100 of your positive approach to harshness of life. I admire you and your husband.

Thank you and your hubbie for sharing this series. I have a 30yr old son that has wanted to find a pc of land and put up a similar cabin. He has languished with the idea about 5yrs, not having enough faith in his self, but watching these videos was really encouraging for him. God Bless you & your family- I hope you continue to live a life that brings you happiness & love❤️

Weve been in a skoolie since 09. Best decision weve ever made for many reasons. We put a 500 gal holding tank under our outhouse and get it sucked out every 4 or 5 years. Super easy.

I watched this get built. Never really saw the finished inside, thank you for showing this. It is a beautiful cozy cabin indeed. It's a shame such cabins can't be built and placed in places for the homeless or for anyone who chooses to live a more simple life. So many restrictions every where it's a wonder you can even have this on your own land. Love it, just seeing it makes me want to read a book and relax ......

Girl, I built a 10'x30' back porch last spring and finished Jul 2. Bowed or otherwise sketchy wood was the #1 issue. Not being 64 years old, doing it solo, not the saws, ladders, 300 sf of laying a brick floor, moving rail road ties, a pile of rocky sand taller than me, nope - BOWED BOARDS!
