  • The building took about 30 days to complete. The design of the cabin was based on visual observations. Such survival shelters were considered amateurish and improvised, built in a hurry from scrap materials.
    Some of my tools:
    Axe: Vintage handmade carpenter's axe
    Knife: HK2 Bushcraft BPS Knives
    Hand saw: DniproM 400mm
    Shovel: Vintage MPL-50

    Fabulous little cabin, but the way you did the chimney is amazing! Blends so well into the entire build and the the sand as a ‘heatsink’ isn’t something that many would think of. My respect to you for that.

    Kudos to you, sir! You not only made a cabin that is true to its predecessors, but is also aesthetically pleasing. You made sure to keep the mud smooth, and kept the logs of a similar size, but you did all of that using hand tools like our forefathers did. Thank you for a very pleasing build and video.

      Mostly made with hand tools... notice how all the perfect to length and really difficult notches just happened off screen and then 'poofed' into frame... if you really want too appreciate things done the old school way, watch Primitive Survival, the only real non hack

      ​@@astonmoore6126he made a Lincoln log cabin, it's a square. No "complex" notches were ever made once in this video. But yeah they guys who pour concrete in the forest with excavator tracks around their completely legit builds are totally the real deal.

    Absolutely amazing talent on display! Love the catted chimney especially, going all the way up to the ridgeline so smoke doesn't fill the cabin. Not even most pioneers' cabins got that part right. Instant subscribe.

    Historically, most of these winter quarters used the issued canvas shelter halves for a roof, simply tacked overtop the simple framework shown here in the beginning. :) great work!!! Love to see winter quarters being represented

    Hello my friend, you flashed me again with this wonderful construction! The way the chimney you built here I have never seen before. It is so massive with all the stones and sand inside, it should store and save the heat for a long time. also the sealing between all the logs and the following clay-cover will keep it cosy inside. From my point of view you should rename your channel. This is not bushcraft "improvisation" any more. This is PERFECTION!
    Again I learned a lot. Thank you for this, stay healty and keep going!

    You sir are an excellent craftsman. I’ve always said if I was in a survival type situation, I would have a chance making it with a hatchet.
    I’ve read accounts of pioneers having this type of chimney. Sometimes everyone would have to run outside and push the chimney over due to it being on fire. Some families would design release mechanisms or build in hooks to hook to a horse to pull it away.
    I do think it if I had been constructing this I would have harvested more moss and covered the bunk.
    Very interesting, thanks for publishing your great work. Cheers!

    Man, I love ASMR videos like this, but yours is truly exceptional! Video editing was superb, and length was not too long but not annoyingly short. Love the use of bank line and nails. The attention spent on the fire place/chimney was excellent. The cabin itself is quaint in the best way possible. I especially enjoyed the mix of both moss and dry grass/hay plus the clay usage for insulation and sealing. And the door locking system? **Chef's Kiss**
    You my friend are a true artist, and I take much inspiration from you. Please...keep being amazing!
