So glad Jason didn’t get hurt on the ladder. The fan is awesome. I vote no handles on the lazy Susan. Everything is just turning out wonderfully -very happy for you guys.
Thanks Trudee......Working on some shelving today.....😊 Have these Really nice brackets to use....😉
I love the cabin its beauty. Love all you done. Leave the lazy sue without handles and the fan is amazing.🥰
Woot Woot, Thanks Evelyn
The punch list is always my least favorite of lists. You two are buttoning things up nicely. Holy CRAP that fan job was a pucker moment though! 🤣😬😳 That's a negative ...No to handles on the Lazy Susan! 🤣
Thank you SS, Appreciate the Support
Excellent choice on the fan! The Gray makes it stand out. Poly on all the wood, you won't be disappointed. As far as the Lazy Susan, I like hardware, but at the end of the day, it is what you like! It's your cabin. And Awesome if I might add! Excellent work the two of you are doing!
Dennis you are awesome, thanks for all the kind words
Jay that was a scary moment, I'm glad you're okay. How beautiful everything is looking, you can appreciate the walls more, so natural
Thank you Irene......glad you like it. 😊😊😊
Great job on your cabin. No handles on the lazy Susan. Everything looks great.
Cool, thanks Terry
Its really starting to come together, nice job, that fan looks perfect, and it should help push the heat back down into the living area, so at least ya can sleep up in the Loft if ya want to!
Thanks Mike
Love your cabin! Just my style.
The fan is awesome!
I personally wouldn't put handles on the lazy susan.
Happy no injuries in the ladder.
God bless.
Thanks Sue.....😊😊😊
You said it best Jen, it's coming together and looks so nice! Glad Jay survived the ladder slip and long reaches, scary stuff. Love the shine of the poly and am interested to see the final resin results (my vote is no handles on the lazy susan). The "TimberCam" was fun, lol. Take care, looking forward to the next one!
Thanks my friend 😊
Best Congrats from Germany to shrinking your „todolist“! I always wonder how the smell in your nice cabin would be with this loads of wonderful timber you used for your cabin. No Handles, would i say! Your ladders are evil you just bought them direct from the hell of menards, but there is some light at the end of the tunnel in disguise of you gable end. I wish you all the best for your wonderful property! So now i look for the recipe of your „Detroit stew“…
Hey siegried Roy, Jen is gonna update the description box and put the link for the recipe there for you:D
Oh, Y'all have light kits up and window trim!! Looks great!! The auto play must have skipped that!!❤❤😊😊
Dog cam! I like that fan/light, looks great! Jen's doing dishes and working that pole!!! LOL! One more high peak and trim, then no more ladder! You don't have too much more inside to do. Pretty soon nice outside work weather!
🐶 👌 😊 👍 🐕 👌 🐶
Excited buddy
Your ladders don't seem to like you, lol!! Nice fan. Can you come down here and install ours please and thank you??
Are those different shorts after the ladder slipped?
Looks good with the poly on the logs !
What's your plan for the sink drain , will you put a pipe down through the floor ?
Great progress on the cabin guys .
Thanks Tim'r lol......Fresh pants after that slip, ha ha.
We will make a little grey water catchment for the sink and shower at some point.....for now the old bucket under the sink will have to do
@@OffgridwithJayandJen I made a grey water leach bucket for my sink at my cabin, 5gal bucket with a 1' slot cut down the side fill with 2' and bigger rocks , dig hole min 2' down and lay bucket on its side with the cut out facing down, pipe your sink into the lid with the pipe protruding a few inches inside the bucket lid, back fill , done , works great , make sure to have a P trap under the sink.
.
Having myself fell off a ladder about the height of your loft give or take a foot or so and breaking my arm back in 2010 when working for my uncle and doing some rehab of a tool room at a factory I fully understand the woogyness of ladders, love the windmill ceiling fan, my votes no on handles for the susan, the poly also will make wrapping the beam with twinkley lights easier just saying :)
Oh man.....not fun. THanks for all the support Reuben......working on a special puppy dish here today 😊
“This is what we got” lol I love you Jay 👍🏻. Tell Jen the wife says no handles necessary
Ha, thanks Frank....me English not so good somes the time. 😊
@@OffgridwithJayandJen No reflection on your English Jay, just admire your outlook on how things work out. Good stuff!
JAY YOUR ANGELS ARE WORKING OVERTIME THERE BUDDY!!! UGH!!! I am surprised you came down that ladder with dry JEANS oh God in Heaven. OH dear laughing with you two about a memorial??? PLEASE don't think that way yikes. ROUND KNOBS to Match your handles would look great!!! Does your fan pull heat up and is it reversible to push hot air down? Thank you for your video for sure NO MORE exciting ladder stuff ok??? God's blessings to you ALL.
Thanks Sandra......We tried the fan puling up, but not sure if it works well being it is in a peak and not on a flat ceiling.....pushing down seems to work well
I love the fan guys. Looks like you ģot a hole in the cieling. The pup is so mellow. The happier you get the younger you look. SO KEEP ON SMILING. 😍🤩🤣👀🙏U. THAT SOUP LOOKS SO GOOOD. 😋🤤.BLESSINGS PUERTO RICO HERE. 👋👀U
Thanks my friend......glad you are here with us. Makes us smile
Any longer term plans to drill a well, or is that not practical? Great channel. Really enjoy the content.
Hey Mike, we are going to try pounding a shallow well down by camp this summer. Up by the cabin it is too high in elevation. Planning to catch rain from the roof for using though
@@OffgridwithJayandJen Would a large water tank (like an RV might have) and regular water delivery work? (Is water delivery a thing?)
Oh NO Jay, you ruined Jen's finest Chime Plate with that epoxy!! lol. Good move using paper bowl... Greetings from Perth, West Australia. Cheers, Frank.
Typo alert! Should be "CHINA"!!
Ceiling fan looks great …. The color it is makes it more visible led lights last a long time good job Jason …. Please be careful 🤦🏼♀️on that ladder….stay safe, healthy ,& God bless…….o my goodness that soup looks great!!!!!!……
😊
In the future when filling cracks you mix sawdust in with the glue
Glad you are making yourself a big pot of food 🍲 😋 ... yummy...the fan is 👌fabulous 👏 and looking awesome 😊😊😊❤from Singapore 🇸🇬 😀 👍
Thank you so much 😀
Hi guys.
I live since 9 years in a semi offgrid cabin in Alaska (power but no water) and I would like to tell you how I do dishes.
First cleaning, using papertowls to get rid of the all the nasty stuff. Then I boil water, put it in a bigger bowl and soak everything with dish soap. I clean everything using a brush and wearing gloves (water is hot) after that I fill the bowl again with cold water and clean the dish soap off.
I don’t do it under running water, I would use to much water. I had to smelt snow many times to clean up and it is a lot if of work to get 2 gallon of water to do dishes and clean the kitchen.
Sounds like you got it down pat.....we will try that next round..thanks LC
Please be careful Jay. I love the ceilling fan, reminds me of a windmill. ❤ The soup looks delicious. Slowly you are getting there. 👍 No you don't need handles on the lazy Susan. Ok, one question? Who gets to clean the ceiling fan? LOL
LOL.....TIMBER ??? he is the only one not expressing his dislike for ladders around here
No handles, but you can put push pads since you push on those doors, I saw a guy take and hammer metal for his 2"×3.5" painted them black... really looks good!!! Plus over time it'll hurt your finish
Nice
Just absolutely love Jen’s comments 😂😂😂keep the vids coming ❤️from the uk
😊😊😊
Love the fan and you don’t need handles on the Lazy Susan looks fine without them have a great week say hi to timber he’s such a beautiful dog here from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️😎
Thanks buddy......Timber is blushing now.😊
Jay bringing back the white sock look. I hear ya, boss! No knob/handle needed on the LS. Love the ceiling fan!! You’ll be patting yourself on the back for years for doing the poly.
Woot woot
I feel ya Jay, I hate ladders as well...bought some scaffolding so Caroline wouldn't have to call 911....lol
Smart, lol
Wow. I'm so impressed with you two. Keep up the good work. BTW, Jay, it's nice to have someone that is so supportive like Jen. You two are fantastic together.....
Thanks my friend. 😁😁😁
Quite agree, no handles on the lazy susan doesn't need them and would spoil the lovely surface. Fan looks 'fan tastic' 🤣🤣🤣. You are doing a great job between you. Thanks for sharing
FANTASTIC.....should have been the video title. Lol
Love that fan! I vote no handles; however, you guys live there, not me. Our input is good but whatever makes you happy is what matters most.
😊 thank you
Yes I loved it...wonderful summer fanning....I need one just like it, with such a large fanning 💫 and the kitchen is getting pretty ready for a more comfortable environment for sure 😉 and with the large window view of your nice nature 🥰
Thank you so much.....glad you like it as much as we do 😊

Made my stomach drop again watching that slip...yikes. Great video, getting a lot of things done. No Handles are needed there....Thanks for sharing!
Sorry to scare you 😬 thanks for the support Kristin
No handles , love the fan Timber is so cute ❤️🐾🐾 the cabin is looking beautious !!!!!
Thank you so..much GK
Everytime Jay gets on a ladder, your subscriber count goes up about 500. Love the channel. Keep those insurance premiums paid.
HA.....ladders are the secret to success on UA-cam, 😆
Where is the bathroom
We have an out house we built
You can check out the videos here

The outhouse is across the yard from the cabin
We also have a full bathhouse down by the shed ua-cam.com/video/x-rc6AxYN_E/v-deo.html
You choose the best background music! Look at all you two have done, you must have such a sense of accomplishment!! I love your videos, and I am proud of what you have done. So cozy!!
Thank you so much Danny
We’re glad that we found your channel! 😊Your videos are awesome. You have a lot of creative ideas and we want to share them with our customers. We sell land close to rural areas. And we’re always on the lookout for channels like yours where we can send our customers to get awesome ideas for their own diy house building.
Awesome....glad to share and have others enjoy them. Thank you and best wishes
Please not another ladder episode 😳 careful Jay, check those shorts 💩 Its looking really good inside the cabin, living the life and getting those items done. Great ceiling fan addition, have fun you to
Thanks guys.
Poly looks great. Nice job. Fan looks amazing! I like that look. Keep after it. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Lou....your boost of encouragement is appreciated today. Best wishes
No need to put handles on the lazy Susan. Looks great the way it is. Looking forward to cabin expansion project. You thinking a small wood stove in there too? Love the Timber cam.
Nice, we are excited too.....shouldn't need any additional heat....this stove really cooks us out so hoping we ate good to go
The home is so beautiful & looks so peaceful,great meal, I love soup,stews in winter blah even in the summer,the sink is really nice,happy journey,thank you
😊😊😊
No door pulls on the lazy susan…. Handles are just something else to make it harder to wipe down your cupboard doors if you spill something on your counters. Lazy Susan turns well without knobs.
very true, Thanks Cathy
Putting handles on lazy Susan cabinet will keep it clean. Otherwise your dirty fingerprints will be all over it which build up & lose worse over time.
True
Fan looks great.!!! Yikes the ladder! I did same thing a few yrs back and ended up with 9 pins and a plate in my ankle. Same experience as Jason but my ladder kept going.
Oh man.....scary
NO Knob on the lazy Suzanne. It is designed to push not pull . Hi Guys. Thank you for the video. Hi Timber
😊 timber says. 👋
I do not like to clean around handle or knobs so I vote, no. That epoxy was hardening so fast, I didn’t think it would all be out of the container before it reached rock condition. I gasped when that ladder slipped! I so glad you’re alright! That soup looks delicious.
Thanks Kathleen.....it all worked out despite my efforts to mess is all up, lol
Love the fan. Where did you buy it? No handles on the lazy Susan. If it was a fixed door corner cabinet with the door on hinges the “yes” a handle would be necessary.
Thanks David.......we looked like 20 places for windmill style fans.......only to find it at good old Lowes, lol
If you do handles, MAKE SURE it will rotate with them in position!!!!
Smart.....I would be that guy.....install....push....not turny,.loll
Things qre coming together and looking fabulous. I agree with Timber, no knobs on the lazy susan.
👍😊
The doors look great as they are. BUT most of all you like them as they are. Theres no pulling just pushing looks great as they are.🙏👋🤣👀u
So true....thanks Ana
looking good guys ... no you dont need handles.. do as you like.... you can buy a piece to put in the crack thant looks like wood but is plastic or laminate not too sure... but it is looking amazing!Love your videos!
Thank You Sandra for catching up my friend....appreciate the info and support. =)
Looks really good guys! I vote "no" on the lazy Suzan handles...but it's your place. Love the fan and glad there was no mishap off the ladder! Be safe out there!
Awe...thanks Diane
looks like the handles will hit when you try to turn it I wouldn't put handles
Probably the nicest of Grid homes I have see. Congratulations.
Wow, thanks Keith. Glad you like it too. 😊
If you pack the F$@k out of the snow in the pot it will largely increase your end result.....really pack it hard.
😊 thanks.....Jen is a rookie. Lol
To me a fan is a fan is a fan.....But that one actually struck me..its beautiful...kinda looks like a wheel off an old cart
great choice!!
Thanks Ray.....I'm with you...I was going to grab the cheapest one possible.....but Jen had other plans. Glad she did 😊
I love the ceiling fan and the log beam. It all looks great. No handles on the Lazy Susan Cabinet. I've never seen them with any.
Thanks Sally
Amazing fan
😀👍😊
If you like the cabinet without pulls then that’s your answer. No need for them anyways!!
Truth, lol
hey jay what are you wiping on the beam it's looking good......cheers
Using a clear water based polyurethane. Believe this was made by minwax.
Just started watching and enjoy your vids and all that you’ve done. How many coats of poly are going on the walls and ceiling?
Welcome Max.......very glad to hear that you enjoy our vids =)....we did two coats of the poly on the walls and ceiling and i think that was perfect. It helped even things out and protect everything well. It is ageing very well too. Deepening the color but not changing its color
🤣🤣🤣🤣🎶🎶 WOOT! WOOT! 🎶🎶🤣🤣🤣🤣
if you like your cupboards then should leave them alone. you guy are the ones living there.. who cares what others think right..
😊 true.....just nice to get opinions. Most likely leave it, lol.
when you make that much for dinner like the soup, what do you do with the leftovers or do you just eat it everyday until it's done? nice cabinets.
We eat it the next day too....then anything extra get put out for the birds or fed to the chickens
I vote No on the lazy Susan handles. If you use epoxy to fill cracks in wood again, you can add saw dust to it so it blends into the countertop.
Nice, thanks
What ever you go cooking looks mighty good,
Lol ... I hate ladders too! Your place is looking awesome. Love that fan.
Thanks Mark
Hello Jan and Jan please FORGIVE me but I haven't been WATCHING any videos because I been very sick and I am just starting to feel a little bit better but omg you BOTH have done so much AMAZING work on your CABIN hope JAY didn't get hurt to bad it's nice to see you BOTH as always take CARE of yourself ROSA OLBERA
Oh No, very sorry to hear you have been sick.....we missed you, but you never know what's going on....so thanks for coming back and glad you are feeling better
@@OffgridwithJayandJen thank you BOTH for being so kind stay safe OUTTHERE
A lazy Susan isn't supposed to have a knob or handle, I see Jay hasn't found a griddle for the stove yet 🤔
Thanks Brian.....I really have not spent any time looking to be honest.....been busy, lol
Jay you need to complete your 2 eaves front and back by the looks of it then you will be mostly finished with inside of your cabin walls.
Soon.....soon
No handles on the lazy susan,, but maybe on the ladder lol. Everything looks great
Lol, couldn't hurt having some extra handles on the ladder right? 🤣
You definitely need handles on you cupboard doors, if you want handles on your cupboard doors.
LOL, that is funny....If I think it is funny. 😜
👍Looking good! corner cabinet - no handles, they may inhibit the operation of the cabinet.
good point, thanks Ruth
If you don't want handles...then no handles. Your house, your rules❤️
Ha....true, lol
The thumbnail and a flying ladder though 🤣🤣🤞🤞
Chucking that bad boy to the moon buddy
Looks great guys yea Jay that knows weld get very hard I filled a hole in a motor block
nice
You need to finish that top end over windows.
That's a bad ass fan, love it. So cool, it definitely looks great.
Thanks Melissa.....Jen fell in love with one similar at a butcher shop....and finally found herself one similar....she a happy girl,.lol
I’ll bet your heart sank a little when ladder slid on ya 😂😂. I hate ladders & heights too.
It surely skipped a beat or two, lol
I LOVE THE FAN!!!❤❤❤❤
Looking cool already.. Pls take care🥰❤️
Thank you thank you. Best wishes
As a retired cabinet maker I have see handles put on or off. It is a personal thing
Nice, thanks for sharing the knowledge
need to fill the A frame in up the top Jason only bit you got to do you said !!!good job
Soon my friend....soon. thanks
It has to be a great feeling to be wrapping up some loose ends. I can’t wait for the day when we can go up to our cabins just to relax, lol. I love the ceiling fan, great choice.
Can't wait Buddy, lol
The fan is great but I would take the log down. I dont like it. Cover the hole with wood.
Oh man....we love it. Plus it kind of holds the walls together....so no can do
The cabin looks amazing guys . I love it .
Glad ya like.it Karleen
So when are you going to tackle finishing the tongue and groove on the Gable end
I'm leaving it unfinished because it tricks people into commenting a lot, lol. JK.....we are working on designing some covered decks for outside and I need to attach them to something solid....leaving it open until I figure it out. 😊
My lazy Susan does have handles, mostly for looks
👍
Love the fan! Did you worry about power consumption when you were shopping for the fan? We are looking into a fan for our cabin as well.
Jenny looked at the power usage and it said something crazy low....will try to address this question in a video soon. I did run just the fan and nothing else in the cabin and the inverter didn't even pick up its draw, so that is good. Less than 30 watts
@@OffgridwithJayandJen That is great! I do like your fan with the 10 blades. I think with 10 blades you can probably even use the lowest power setting and it will move plenty of air. Especially when trying to get the heat down to the lower level. God bless you on that ladder!!
They are your cabinets. It is up to you whether you want cabinet knobs or not.
Very true
Timbercam❤
Glad you did not fall. The house looks great !!!!
Me too, thanks. Lol
Really sweet looking fan, nice job, nice pic
Thanks Edward....😊👍
Looks beautiful with no handles!
😊
That fan was a tricky install for sure, it is very nice looking! What does power usage look like?
The stats stated very low and efficient. Like 20-30 watts.
@@OffgridwithJayandJen thanks good to know been thinking about a ceiling fan for our OG cabin but worried about power usage.
I didn’t realize your ceiling was so high nice
It is a good height....we made taller walls and steep roof to make more space in the loft......and Make the cabin feel bigger. 😀
