- With losing power over and over the struggle is real and staining is becoming difficult. This stain is a very translucent color and with my limited experience with an airless sprayer, Its making for a tough challenge to get the color even. Either way, we push ahead and keep making progress.

About Me.
In 2018 I decided to stop working for someone else full time and pursue my dream of building my log home and starting a small farm in the Ozark mountains. It's a dream that I have had and have been working towards for over 20 years, and due to life changes and unexpected events, I decided to make a leap of faith. This journey will not be without its challenges and setbacks, but I will continue to push forward each and every day to make this dream a reality. I try to upload videos 3 days a week but working mostly alone I am always pressed for time.

Of all the channels I watch doing this, your home is by far the most beautiful. You took on a large challenge and had some bumps, but your progress is awesome and inspiring. Keep it up. Would love to see more of the family.
Thank you so much 😊
Well at least it’s hooked up to a machine, can’t imagine it doing it by a brush.
I don’t even want to think about doing it with a brush
It's all coming along so nicely. And it's been such a lot of hard work. Very beautiful.
Looks really good to me 👍
Thank you
Love the homestead you are doing a fantastic job! Be proud of your hard work it shows!
Thank you
I think you have built a show piece, really like your home.
Thank you
Buy a masker. It will make taping easier. Looking great!
Every time I watch one of your videos, I am amazed at your work and the thought if taking one such a huge project for one man. When it us finished I hope you stand back and and look at what you Aline accomplished! My hats off to you Stephen!
You did a fantastic job with the stain! Even if it hadn't turned out as good, by the time the furniture & pictures are up you wouldn't have even noticed. But I know you want it to look as perfect as possible because it is a LOT of work. Yes, the winds were absolutely awful. Hope you already have a generator or two now that you know how much the power can go out - glad it didn't happen during a snow storm.
Thank you so much! We do have a generator just in case and the Bluetti as well.
It's really coming along great, I really look forward to your homestead updates. Adelaide, South Australia.
The weather has been crazy and this week looks the same. But the house is looking great.
It really has been. It’s been very windy here
The Ponderosa is coming along!
Hi , the Homestead is coming along in a big way , I believe the family will be happy the day you’re moving keep up all the hard work really appreciate you guys Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia

Truly it all looks marvelous! What a success it has all been....you may be sore but I am enjoying your hard work and success tremendously!! Congrats. Beautiful work.

Cabin is looking Awesome 👏🏻😁
Hi from the Sunshine Coast in Queensland Australia , I am a new subscriber , went and watched all your video's . All I can say is what a fantastic job you have done , not only with the cabin but the whole property ! This is the best and biggest cabin build I have ever seen , well done . Looking forward to your video's , thank you.

The house is looking great! Sucks about the weather and the power! I hope it improves quickly for you! 😎🤞👍 John
It was a pain for sure
Man of many talents great job
I agree multiple light coats , the timber colours are really soft honey colour it's getting very exciting nowadays .
The stain is looking so nice. You always do such a good job.
thank you
Everything looks good but not as good as George feels!!! ⚡ ❄ 😎
😂😂
Everything you do enhances the beauty of your home. Love it! *Keep an eye on the weather this week (week of April 10th).
Thank you! Will do!
Still looking great weather here in Kentucky mess up also.
Awesome job! Its a process that takes time
I thought chinking was a pain in the posterior but I am convinced that this stain process is a close second. Not that it is all that difficult but trying to discern where the stain has been covered and what still needs to be covered would drive me batty. I can see why painters may have bad habits!
I can understand why painters get paid what they do..lol
GOD WILLING
you will be complete by Christmas

Hi it’s a bit of a shame that you can’t put an additive in it like we have it here in Australia with white ceiling paint is when you put it on it is pink but when it dries dries white that would be wonderful if you could add it to the spray
That would really help
its a chore have fun
It looks awesome
Thank you
Omg you are REALLY making this beautiful home AMAZING just don't push yourself take your time ok I no you want it to come out perfect but the way you going it's going to look just beautiful AFTER you finish it take CARE of yourself and hello to your WONDERFUL wife
Thank you so much. ♥️
@@hickoryridgehomestead9177 your so welcome WATCHING your WONDERFUL VIDEOS make this granny day
The stain looks really nice. 👌 We have been having incredible cold winds here in Colorado also.
Good Morning Stephen, every video shows more and more lovin this journey yall are on , thanks for sharing. Any news on the Windows?
How're the Goats doin ?
Goats are doing great and no word on the windows yet. Hopefully we will hear something in the next couple of weeks.
Raw wood is best hit with a dedicated sealer first. Then you can apply your finish more evenly.
I tried that first on some extra pieces but the stain wouldn't penetrate at all. It was just left sitting on the surface and you could just scrape it off with your fingernail. I have 20 gallons of sealer that I didnt use for that reason.
Understood. You have to match the finish to the sealer.
I think you chose the proper wood treatment and, yeah, it appears to be a challenging job with the sprayer. Evening light from table lamps, etc. will cast lovely shadows upon the stain. Nice work.
That's a lot of wood when it comes to staining. Every job in/on the house seems to be a maga huge job! Have you protected the cabin from termites yet? No, I'm not a bug guy, but have had termite issues. (JF)
yes we are protected from termites. I have had the same issues in the past and they can do real damage in a hurry
Been keeping up for a long time !!! I dont comment hardly ever, my bad ! Dude! When you walk into that awesome house, don't you kinda fall over a little bit and say to yourself " Holy S#!+ I built this !!!!! " When the balcony rails went in I was like " Holy S#!+ somebody just put the star on the Christmas tree". Somebody needs to make you a sign that says "Holy S#!+ I Built this !!! " maybe 4 of them, one for each side of the house !
Thank you. It’s been a lot of work but it’s starting to pay off. Still a long way to go but there is light at the end of the tunnel.
👍🇸🇪❤️
I've done that.o..
🇳🇱👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🍀
