    We used concrete paint to do the floor to prevent the rain from going into the floor. It waterproof and great to walk on. Should all extra strength under these beans to prevent from fallen on the floor.

      Thanks for the kind words and for watching. We are currently racing to finish the other half of the roof before winter weather.

      We might put a permanent floor structure up there eventually but what is there was just done as a temp scaffold to use for the build.

    When using a grinder to cut the metal roof the metal get to warm and destroy the rust protection. Use a nibbler or a scissor. To get a wall without a cold bridge you can use 2x2 horizonal on the outside for insulation, no need to use plywood only tyvek outside the 2x2 and then you can have a ventilated wall, using wood panel and you save money when not using plywood

      I'm more concerned with not dying than future corrosion potential. Can't imagine fighting a pair of tin snips for 14 ft while holding on for dear life :)
      The plywood sheathing was indeed expensive as hell. But Ive built this cabin to be extremely rigid in case of ground movement from permafrost and seasonal frost heaving. I think the 5/8 plywood laid horizontal contributes a lot of stiffness to the building.
      I do plan to fur out the inside wall for a thermal brake as well as making an easy space to run electrical and plumbing. Will probably also fur out the exterior before siding goes up.
      Thanks for the tips and thanks for watching!

      Sorry, Next video we will keep it low. But videos without sound get boring at some point. Thanks for your feedback and thank you for watching.
