    Very clever idea and saving a lot of time scribing and notching the timbers. Very well explained - and in a storm of black flies! Will be watching progress with great interest.

    Love watching the evolution of your videos, as this is one of the few channels I watch, as they come out, in order. Beautiful day, minus the bugs. Also the teaching was clear and concise.
    Would love to see some of the views of Nepal and base camp. Have seen the pics from your associates, and they looked amazing!

    Great video. I really like the intro clips. You definitely should make a video of your Nepal trip!

    Great video and great job with explanation ! Had a couple questions but figured them out. Measure for inside but cut from outside. What you’re cutting is always in front of the saw not beside the bar. But. Think both could be swapped depending on preference and where the guides were mounted on the bar. Was happy to see you went to Nepal on IG and looks like another great time for you ! As always I enjoy watching and seeing whatever you’re doing ! You must’ve filmed that video last week. That black fly hatching was hellacious for 3 days here lol. Take care Jonathan

      Thanks! The winch I bought from you is set up now and will be a big part of the upcoming work. Looks great on the old Kubota too.

      @@PenniacWilderness Just a thought about your dovetail jig process, if all your logs are the same size why don't you add some blocks inside the jig to set the depth it goes on over the log as well as some blocks to center it on the logs. That would speed up the process 👍

    @ 24:01 you haven't mentioned that the 1/4 plywood pads have to be calibrated top and bottom of the chain bar to stop the cut at the proper distance from the jig

    Thanks for the detail.
    So the interior dimension of the cabin gets increased by half an inch (0.25” + 0.25”) ?
