The windows and doors really made a big impact on the cabin, looking good!
Pre-emptive note to the comment section safety police - you could take the time you'll spend writing any "I would have done it differently" comments and use it to plan or carry out your own DIY and repairs.
This is wise, and will probably fall on deaf ears lol
I don’t mind the criticism though, it’s part of it.
I know people care to see things that they do for a living be done/ represented to the full extent of their practices - but quite frankly you don’t gotta be a roofer to put on a roof that doesn’t leak ya know.
Well for one, what I would have done differently is. Have breakfast ready before I sat down to watch this video.
@@99Projects Have you any estimates how long it yet take until you finished ?
Some woke commenters feel the need to police the police and pre-cime cancel them.
I started watching for just for the cabin restoration, but it turns out, I watch for everything! The banter is second to none, Max is absolutely adorable, the machinery always has its own story to tell and watching the cabin change is very satisfying. I really enjoy the long videos too. Life in my house stops until I’ve finished watching!
I love this comment. It all kinda has its own story to tell and ya gotta watch the entirety of all the videos to keep up. Thanks for hanging out
R u going to make a garden sure is rich dirt?
My favorite part about all these videos is how your storytelling style (visuals, edits, music) has really developed more and more with each video. I also love that we're getting to see more of your personality and sense of humor. Thanks as always for all your hard work, both on the cabin and on the videos!
I really appreciate that. It’s definitely takes some getting used to, being on camera. You wouldn’t think it’s hard but go out and talk to a camera, it’s kinda strange at first.
Also, the editing is a huge learning curve so thank you and thank you, i appreciate the feedback
This is exactly why I love this channel and others like it: I want to see the process. If I were only interested in the result, I'd look through real estate listings.
Came here for cabin restoration, stayed for the good vibes and Max's little tail nub floof.
I love that you don't do the house flipping style of video where you don't show the actual work in it, just the drama and suspense. Your videos put a lot more into it, and I've been following ever since your first video! You're doing great.
Thank you I appreciate that
You need to put a groove under the window sill about an inch back to keep water from backing up.
Love watching you. Love from North Norway..Finnmark.
Considering your battery has a manufacture sticker of 4/19, I don't think the battery is only 6 months old lol
really enjoy all your posts. i have noticed other you tubers after they get so many followers they are treating them less important. your doing a great job. always waiting for your next post
Thank you, I really appreciate you watching and commenting. You guys are the best audience on UA-cam and I will always be grateful for you guys
Second this. Way better with their fanbase than others!
Like Andrew Comarata.
Man… watching you glue your pipe. My husband usually does sewer hook ups or water lines. He has SO many shirts with purple glue on them!
You’re doing an awesome job.
I just finished roughing in the plumbing and I know why he has shirts with purple glue on it. Holy cow that’s messy
The windows and doors are a huge step to making the place liveable again.
One thing to consider: there should be a drip cap over the windows and doors. It tucks under the siding and over the top of the trim to deflect water.
Yep I gotta do that. Thanks for reminding me
You remind me of my father in-law when he was younger.
A jack of all trades and he loves to “ collect things” and knew how to fix anything or at least try and fix it lol.
Keep up the great videos.
Thank you, collect things is a nice way to put it lol
Your Deadpan Buddy is a constant Riot!!😂😂😂😂 I love the look. When you talk, he ,just walk away 😂😂😂
Thank you for taking extra care around the Robin's nest. Such beautiful blue eggs! I hope that you put a bird feeder out when you finish your project. The house is coming along awesomely! Great job guys!
A bird feeder would be cool
Good Job!!😊🎉 Great to See You! Keep it up!!!
56:10 never been so nervous in my life 😂. Always worth the wait for a new video. Keep up the good work guys! 💪🏻
OMG the Robin eggs!!!
i was worried when he said he's going to be careful qvq
Your frustration with batteries is something I just dealt with and I feel it. Also bumping into a friend's car purposely and then spending hours fixing what broke is exactly how it would've gone with me. A fun story to tell later and we can hope you get something from the videos to offset any costs there.
Super relatable content, just a bunch of buddies building stuff.
I’m glad you enjoyed it, I’m sure a lot of people will complain about crashing into the truck. I appreciate that you see the humor in it. Also the truck is junk, it’s going to get crushed.
@@99ProjectsI wouldn't be concerned, you clearly know the cost of repair vs the value it provides and sometimes it's not worth it! Screw it, have some fun. The editing gives me a laugh.
Ever think of setting up a "Buy Me A Coffee" link? I'm sure plenty of us would be happy to fuel these videos.
@@shikullihe has a merch store and I’m sure he’d appreciate if we buy the merch it’s like donation with a bonus gift for yourself!
I enjoy your videos very much!!
The windows sure changed the look of the cabin. Looking really good!
I really like how they turned out
They look like shit. So cheap and crappy.
That right-angled cordless drill is a fantastically handy looking piece of kit.
That thing was awesome
She's coming back to life!
Every day it looks less and less like a crack den 🤣🤣
Just kidding of course, great work this weekend it looked like you had way too much fun in that bucket with the chainsaw too 😎
More great progress
I'm impressed and in love with your concrete and field stone on your basement wall. I will suggest you clear cut more trees away from your house in order to protect the cabin from a Forrest fire.
Thank you. Iv taken a lot of trees down. We don’t have a risk of forest fire here so probably going to leave the rest
Max was like "Dad, you dug me a hole! Best day ever!"
I really enjoy watching your videos! You are amazing you really are a Jack of all trades,can’t wait to see how this all going to turn out those windows are really nice and door awesome !!!
Thank you I really appreciate that
I have solar trickle chargers hooked my my vehicles batteries that sit for long periods of times. It keeps the batters charged and in good condition.
That might be a good option if the chargers don’t have a mind of their own
I have some smaller trickle chargers permanently installed that I plug into the same cord as my block heater. It just keeps it charged whenever I have the car plugged in. Works really well as long as it's a simple charger that doesn't need buttons pressed but does automatically shut off.
We need next episode 😢😢 i love this series !
Coming soon
I got 13 years out of the factory battery in my last car and 12 years so far in this car. I live in Eastern Ontario so the climate here isn't that much different from yours: I use lots of heat/rear defrost in the winter and AC in the summer. This car also has power everything.
My father taught me decades ago to shut off all the accessories before killing the ignition because doing so put much less stress on the battery when starting up again. I've always done this so that may be making a difference. Then again, I may be living a charmed life.
I always shut the accessories off and to be honest I have a lot less trouble with batteries in vehicles I drive all the time. The trouble seems to start in my equipment that doesn’t get run wvery single day. The second they go dead, about 6 months there done. They never work right again.
I have never built a thing in my life, beyond Legos and cheap MDF college furniture (stop laughing). But I must say that I absolutely love watching the big machinery moving around in fast motion. It's like they come to life. And they are so skillfully driven and manoeuvered. Impressive. Keep it up!
Thanks I appreciate that
We are buying a house in CT and wish we could use some of your handy skills!!! Love your videos been watching this video since the beginning!!
You’ll do great, just learn as you go
Sorry dude, but my son bought an electric car 2 years ago and it's still running really well. He loves it. LOVES it. I bought a Prius in 2004. They estimated the "big" battery would last 8 years. I sold it 14 years later. The original "big" battery was still working. Your battery problem is just that...YOUR battery problem. I don't know why your battery doesn't hold a charge, but it's not the way batteries are supposed to work.
You might want to watch a couple of episodes of This Old House. Your window installation will rot the wall under the window. I'm not a carpenter either, but I know about flashing.
Those are li-ion batteries, not lead acid. The problem is batteries.
Yay,electric!! 💡The windows look so nice. 🐦🕊The birds and I thank you for being considerate of the nests.😇🏡It will be a fine place.
Hi 99 Projects, what are your plans regarding the shingles cladding? I think you call it siding in the US. Do you plan to replace it where it is patchy, are you going to stain it, or even clad over it? I would like to know. This is a great job by the way, all the best from Ballymena.
Thank you for watching. I like the cedar shakes that’s on it now, I’ll probably patch it and keep it original
😊Max is so ❤handsome🦋💞
looking good !
This cabin really looks clean and solid right now. The world needs more upstate NY people.
What part of NY ? I was born in Tonawanda. But the family moved south to Nashville Tn in 1964. Mom couldn’t take the cold any longer. She was smart.
❤ loving on the work of art you are creating. And Max, too.
Finger lakes region. I drive by that place almost daily n seen a lot of progress
So much talent! Where’d you learn all this? Hi cute Max!!!
I admire you guys for all the things you accomplished so far. That's an awesome project !
Thanks so much!
🌹Awesome achievement, I love it too.😊Excellent job guys 🦋💞
So try the Noco battery chargers they’re amazing! I had a battery that the parts house tested as “bad”. Bought a Noco charger, let it do its thing and viola! Battery is still in service for 2 years now. It’s a smart charger adjusts for temperature and regulates how to charge from there. Very good investment.
dude…the work u started months ago to restore this piece of history has my entire ounce of respect to you. i learn so much the basics how to fix a house from bottoms up. thank you for this educational series of videos…am a new fan!
That’s awesome to hear, im very grateful for the opportunity to share this with you guys
It looks like someone cares for the old deserted cabin now, a look of love I'd say.
Makes my day every time a new vid comes on. I was never taught or learned any of this stuff (sadly), so it's a blast to see you go at it.
I absolutely love the progress you've made! It's going to be amazing once complete!
I love these videos so much but I have had this thought since I noticed the wedding ring: what does Mrs. Projects think of all the money you spend on toys 😅😅
Man, that mini excavator sure comes in handy. A very good investment, there. It must be exciting to be this far in the project and closer to enjoying your cabin. Best of luck to you and thanks for the videos
Makes me happy that you're so careful with the birds =) On an unrelated note, why didn't you insulate before putting the window trims on? Is the climate hot where you live?
There will be insulation. It’s hot in the summer here
Curious why you don't answer what State you're in because I just like knowing what I'm looking at scenery wise
He is in upstate New York.
I thank you for your cabin remodeling love it . Keep up the amazing work. Love watching your videos
Always excited to see a new video. The place is looking great and you’re doing amazing. Thank you!
Just loving this series! You guys are so industrious and pretty easy going. Must say as well, that boy Max just loves you!
What do you do when you are not working on the cabin?
Work on other stuff, I’m mostly always working
Hey buddy why do you keep hitting your friends truck? You need to slow it down and pay attention when your driving on that lot. Bud, you create your own problems, and then have to go buy a new, (probably expensive) led fog light to fix your friends truck. You really need to pay better attention to what your doing. Just saying
Without the tools you had, this process would've required more man power and time! Living the dream!
Pretty awesome, greetings from Norway
Hi to Norway, cool to hear from you guys around the world
You could use a pumpup sprayer with bleach and whiten those shingles. They will darken again but I heard you say you like the dark with the white frames.
It is coming along well .
Really enjoying the progress you making on the cabin watching all the videos ❤
thanks for sharing you have a lot of cool tools to use for all your projects.
It's looking great! Can't wait to see how you fix up the window seat
Thoroughly enjoyed this one. First I thought you and the mini were going to fall in the Trench. Max sure liked it down there! I felt your frustration with the batteries and agree whole-heartedly. Things just aren't built to last anymore. Dunkin in the bucket? Hilarious! I giggled when you were doing the trees. Too funny 😂 I think you LIKE hitting your friends truck! LOL
Great video as usual! Keep it up!
Thank you for watching and commenting.
I do enjoy smashing into his truck
You are doing a phenomenal job on your cabin! Hello Max 🐕👋
The windows looks Awesome!
Good job 👏👏👏👏
electrical's in, trench is done. you got 99 projects, now a ditch aint one.
Seams,your luck is like mine,everything needs work before you can work.
You and your partner work so well together! Happy #pride2024
paint the electric lines on the side of cabin brown so its not so "ugly". great job on all
That bucket truck is handy.
Man it’s awesome
great, time to have a snack in the aftertoon watching another great cabin video!!!!!
Man a snack sounds good
Love it
Making great work.
these videos are always a treat to watch, i enjoy seeing all the power tools and trucks used and also i genuinely love how a lot of it is repurposed or restored tools, i really hope i can have the pirvledge to build my own home one day and have something i can be proud of and make it live up to the expectations i want, itd be great to make something worthwhile for me and my future generations
That’s an awesome goal
You remind me so much of a friend that I had when I was in the Marine corps and never in my life have I wanted to be somewhere to help someone as badly as I wish I was there to help you with this project
This is an absolute hoot….. you kids are so much fun. Now 80, but would love to spend a day or two in your world….. great UA-cam
Thank you for watching
Looking at the condition of the wiring you might look for a solar trickle charger.
You will probably never find a small short circuit in that mess unless you rewire the whole truck. There are a lot of them on Amazon.
Did you call Dig Safe first? :)
Yes, they said nothing I do is safe and hung up on me, thankfully.
super job, it has come a long so much. Will be a great future home and low cost then having someone do all of it
seeing these vids always makes my day keep up the good work and never stop being amazing
Thank you so much for hanging out and watching. I appreciate it
Love to watch installing windows and doors. Great. Job!!!
I'm an old lady, 83, but I am concerned watching this one with those two large trees close to where you are digging your trench. If you get lots of rains after the soil is loosened, won't that make them liable to fall over onto your cabin??
Also, I think you are having way too much fun using all those awesome tools......just kidding. Be careful young man! Well done so far!
They won’t call over but the trench could collapse of it rained enough
I have the same kind of dog!!
Awesome! If you don’t already, follow me on instagram, I put pics of max on my story a lot
You know, a man’s got to do what a man’s got to do. You’re out there, getting your hands dirty, digging trenches and wrestling with busted wires. That’s the kind of work that tests your mettle. Ain’t no shortcuts to doing it right, and you know that.
When things go wrong - and they will - you’ve got to stay as steady as a six-shooter in a gunfight. You handle each problem like you’d handle an enemy: with precision, patience, and grit. If the battery’s dead, you find a way to charge it. If the wiring’s all wrong, you figure out how to make it right. Ain’t no room for hesitation out there.
You’re building more than a cabin; you’re building your own piece of the frontier, a place where you make the rules. And every setback, every frustration, that’s just part of the journey. You face it head-on, no complaints, no second-guessing.
So, keep your eyes sharp and your wits sharper. Don’t let the small stuff get under your skin. And when you’re done for the day, take a moment to appreciate what you’ve accomplished, even if it’s just a little. Every step forward is a victory.
Remember, you’re not just a man with a mission. You’re the Man With No Name. You’ve got the toughness to see this through. So, tip your hat, take a swig of your favorite drink, and get ready for the next challenge.

The new windows & door have made a massive difference + one less place for draughts to get through. Greetings from England!
Great to hear from you
It looks like the portico is drooping significantly. Now that the foundation work is done, you might want to put in a couple of temporary posts to hold that up if you are keeping it. If it will be removed, maybe go ahead and do that in a controlled manner rather than letting it take part of the wall with it when it falls.
There you go again, youre going to tip that thing over!!!!!!!
It looks worse than it is
New subscriber, love your series, so glad i found it. Question, tho...... how would those trees in any way impact the lines that are across the road?...I'm not getting why the power company wanted them trimmed? Also, why then didn't you cut down the bigger one that's still overhanging a fair bit? ...you can see it real good @26:45 ...thanks !
Its to close to the lines that will run overhead. Anything that was left on that tree was left because it was not in the way
Good job guys - it looks almost habitable now! Going to be so pretty when you have finished with it - thanks for sharing!
My favorite series's on youtube at the moment!
I've used that PVC trim in my bathrooms, good stuff for wet locations
That’s what I’m gonna do
Loving this series, thank you!
Totally enjoyed watching your video with your sense of humor and all the nitty-gritty of measuring and making sure things fit. Great progress with electrical and windows. Looking forward to next video!
Electric cars have different batteries than gas cars, el-cars have lithium-ion, gas cars have lead acid batteries, both have - and + about them. I have never had any problems with my lead acid batteries, they last 10-15 years + for me if i dont use them wrong.
I mean what’s using them wrong? There in trucks and equipment to start them and their always dead. If I was using it has a hammer I guess I could understand but they sit there with one job and their junk.
@@99Projects Lead acid batteries fail in so many different ways, it is hard to list them all. I live in a desert and guarantee that I have to replace the battery every year. Getting a LION battery jump starter is simplest solution, you can charge it off of wall outlet, or even from a running vehicle and they will start a dead car like a charm
It doesn’t charge unless you are driving fast enough. It only drains if driving less than 10 miles an hour.
The alternator is charging all the time, the regulator rectifier regulates the charging, I don’t think it has anything to do with speed
The batteries are designed to fail so you keep spending $ because big corporations think we live in a disposable society. Sad but true.
No one demands quality anymore so we don’t get it.
You do very nice work. The cabin is really looking great! Love watching the progression.
Windows look great!
where does bro sleep
Bro sleeps in a bed
The trks is very organized .. 😂
You may be able to start living there by mid July
Love watching these videos, its really coming together❤
Thanks for watching
