Agreed, I watched his homestead build like 4yrs and said good for him, you have everything you could want or need right there! 🤣 Fast-forward and he's done at least 3 more full home builds!! This guy is amazing to watch and learn from. I'm 20yrs younger than him and don't have half the ambition and/or drive!!
Love how you apologize to Callie for her having to move. She let you know she wanted her toy back, still acts like a pup, love your relationship. Your cabin is now awesome
I gotta tell you Shawn. You really put your all into this cabin. It’s way better than the last one. I just knew despite the problem with the neighbor, you were being guided to bigger, better and more Shawn-ish arrangements. The lord works in mysterious ways. Well done.
I was just thinking, how free and creative we can be without nosy, interfering neighbours. I am putting up with sensor lights shining over my fence every time I walk outside, or having my gardening work noted and approved or disapproved . Pity. No choice but to move to a better place.😊
What a hoot - Cali lying down close to you as you nail another board, and you have to work around her, because she is not moving! What a terrific little actress Cali is - such an engaging personality. Love her to bits!
I’m so behind on finishing my cabin, however I’ve found peace and comfort in watching you fulfill your dreams. Thank you for posting all your toils and labor.
Waw cabane solide, grande et confortable. Si je n'ai pas vu les sanitaires, il faudra les réaliser une petite pièce . Pas besoin de baignoire classique, un bassin, un endroit où faire chauffer l'eau et un conduit pour déverser l'eau vers l'extérieur. Super le coin bibliothèque avec le tapis par terre . Je suis toute ouïe et je me suis vue dans cette cabane si belle et chaleureuse 🤩 . Je viens juste de découvrir votre chaîne. Merci d'avoir partagé votre une petite partie de votre mode de vie . Super 👍
@Lip Ripper I’m pretty sure that Cali is a very happy and contented dog, she is well loved. She loves the outdoors and she does not need climate controlled when she wears a fur coat. Cali is more than a pet, she is part of Shawn’s family. If you don’t like the content and make comments like this, why do you watch?
I thank you for inviting us into your home...It gives me a feeling of Peace and Harmony...The simple life is the best...Many blessings to you and your family....
@Lip Ripper any particular reason you feel the need to make douchebag comments on everyone’s posts? We all know you can’t do it so you feel the need to diminish others work but just move along instead.
I was fortunate to find your channel early on, when you started with the first cabin, when you began to add rooms onto it I thought you might be dreaming about how you might do it again if you ever got the chance, - knowing all the things you learnt building it , then a development forced you to do exactly that - move and begin again - and now, after a huge effort you have a true home to live and grow, family included if needs-be, it`s a testament to the person you are Shawn, I admire you and what you have created, I look forward to new episodes as I`m unable to get out as often as I`d like to..
I’m glad to see that Cali gets her own chair! I loved the scene of you sitting down, reading near the warmth of the stove. Enjoy the fruits of all your labor!
@@ltjakedunbar6733 uhuh! From what I can gather in watching Cali & other video dogs; they comprehend their 'dad'/'mom' is always speaking to someone other than them and that someone is inside that contraption dad Shawn is always talking to. Also, if the dog gets close enough they can see the image of moving people or a dog IN that little thing. So, my guess is they think it's real people in the camera. Get really science-fiction-y & it's like they are looking into a portal. It explains the uncanny way Cali looks directly into the camera for confirmation or assistance. It's pretty amazing watching how Cali, girl in the woods & bushradical's Maisy and other youtuber's babies respond to the camera similarly. It's a whole new aspect of communication brought about as a result of the vlogging world. I really hope an expert on behavior eventually does a deep dive, as this is really quite fascinating. I get such immense pleasure & relaxation out of Shawn's endless builds. The compound is pretty awesome.
You are an incredibly talented craftsman and woodworker. I am amazed as to the quality of everything you have built by hand, including your cabin! Your furry companion is a treat to watch as well. I hope you have many years of happiness in your off-grid cabin in the woods, along with your four pawed housemate.

Seems like a lonely existence to me, just you and a camera for what? To get likes, shares and views, almost a contradiction of the life he’s trying to portray…a cry for validation or attention if you will? ….maybe I’m wrong. Just do you man.
@@Narsmoke You don't know the full story maybe because you haven't watched as long as some of us. He has been at this since 2017. Try watching his old stuff.
@@Narsmoke He has his wife on the way. His daughter lives in a more traditional build nearby. When SHTF, they will be better off than you or I..... Self-sufficient and knowing the difference between loneliness and solitude.
Praise the Lord for giving you Cali, your Health, Ability, and Dream to do what you truly love to do!!! Not to mention your beautiful family!!! You truly are Blessed!!!
That bookcase wall divider looks really good Shawn, great craftsmanship! Love the end table as well! Cali enjoys sleeping in her chair, she just wants to be close to you! ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼
Good Lord can Cali get any cuter? She's my favorite yt doggo ever! The cabin looks phenomenal Shawn, and you're passion and determination shows with every project you tackle. Thanks for taking us all along with you through your journey. God bless you and yours.
Wow! Between the beauty of your cabin, the beautiful dog (an adorable supervisor) and the pristine views of the night sky in snowy the woods... I'm in awe. Simply stunning. I love winter, and the smell of woods smoke... I swear I could almost smell it watching this video. Thank you for sharing and inspiring us.
Hard to believe I'm watching your Second cabin build. You can always tell a Master of trades when they make it "look" so easy. What a Beautiful legacy Mr James. I hope you left clues and treasures for those who in 150 years come to restore your home and make it theirs.
My name is Brenda and I'm a British farmer. We love doing things like you. It is so rewarding making your own stuff. Your set-up is fabulous, well done an keep doing. Only you yourself will know when to stop!
Man - orchestra. I have the impression that he can do everything, a demon of work and ideas 🙂 I've been watching these movies since the beginning and there's always something new to surprise me. Incredibly relaxing, full of energy and ideas movies and a man and his dog... Super👍👌💪
My grandfather from Villagedale, Nova Scotia (boat designer/builder, house builder, decoy carver, hunter, fisherman, etc.) would similarly write in his journal twice a day - both early and late; with weather, plans, and summary results.
Love how rugged and handmade everything is, just a man and his dog. Truth is with all the subs and views he had, guy could afford every modern convenience but simple is best. Dog is a gem.
Love the bookcase wall! I built three floor-to-ceiling bookcases in my place when I first moved in. Best idea I had. You can never have too many bookcases, or too many books. 😸 Of course Callie is polite! She's a Canadian dog! At some point, can you do a short video showing all the stars you see at night? Where I am there's so much light pollution I can barely see the moon. 😿
Go back a few or four years then that nagging feeling might subside. Also he's got the Shawn James channel where he speaks to his audience and let's you know what's up.
ok banjo and video montage intro ... EXCELLENT ... not only do we get a highlight intro BUT we get put in the right frame of mind to enjoy watching as well ... and it's ONLY 42 seconds long ...
I’ve been watching for long time . I grew up in the city as soon as I could moved out into country setting . I built my own home with my own hands and lost house after recession happened. I now am driven to build my own off grid cabin from your videos pushing me not to look back ans accomplish my dream thank you from bottom of my heart Doug from Wisconsin

Question for My Self Reliance: So many people come to your pages for inspiration, wonderment and the vicarious joy of seeing you fulfill one challenge after another. Where do you typically find inspiration?
А мне нравится, что он все умеет делать, с таким мужчиной, как за каменной стеной. Будьте здоровы, и радуйте нас своими видио, на старости лет хоть на чужую романтику наглядишься, спасибо.
I truly don't understand how one man can build/create this. I can comprehend an outstanding work ethic but the proficiency and precision are beyond stunning.
Как же у вас уютно и хорошо и с вами рядом преданный и верный друг ! Что еще нужно человеку для полного счастья .......?! Да и хочу отметить ,что у вас золотые руки и по видимому добрая душа .....Спасибо большое за такое доброе и душевное видео ....!))) ..
well, that was a nice relaxing hour - loved every minute of it - and what an adorable mutt Cali is! I'm not surprised you have 2+Million Subscribers - Awesome.
Incredible craftsmanship and know how fully documented. A rustic dream build from which to take it all in. A gift to behold this treasure, its idillic location and lifestyle.
Cali’s as polite as you Shawn, waiting for 👍to be seated in her chair. So sweet also her asking to go outside with shoe in her mouth! Love the end table and book stand. Looking cozier every week. Many thanks. Your vlogs feed my soul every Friday night. ❤😊
Shawn over the years myself and many others have watched and followed you throughout your journey. I think as men , lots of us live through your reality. Wishing we had the ability to live and be free from the day to day nonsense. Doing what you do is more than a talent , it’s a passion. I wish I could sit with you and just talk. Anyhow glad to see you’re living your dream and reality brother. Peace and blessings
finally looking like a comfortable cosy home, all that hard work you've done, now it's time to start enjoying, the pay back is so gratify, shawn you're creation is a masterpiece.
It's always fun to think about which part of your videos are my favorite...but it's SO hard to do! Books are my favorite "possession," because they bring so much joy so that huge bookcase is everything. As a city girl, longing for the country living of my childhood, my very favorite tonight was seeing all of the beautiful stars in the sky. I'm lucky to see the moon and three or four of the very brightest planets. Shawn, if you made a 45 minute video of the night sky with audio of a woodburning fire, I would watch it on repeat to relax. The view about the trees was stunning. Thank you! And Cali❤️
these videos are great, makes us feel like we right in there ,building right beside you,i have enjoyed every one,hopefully we'll get to be right along for gardening and building more stuff in the future,just wanna say thanks for bringing us along, thanks so much.
Been following for a couple years. Wow!! You are a man of many incitements and talents!! My breath is just taking away with how you much you have accomplished!! Ok, you couch potatoes! Let's get motivated!!
Shawn, I’ve been a fan of yours for years now. Just want to say that you have been an inspiration for me to make the decision to go out and build my dream in the wilderness. God bless…
Hi Shawn, watching this video I can't help but feel a deep sense of envy mixed with admiration for the taste and skill with which you are decorating your cabin while Cali keeps your chair warm. I guess the electricity comes from solar panels and batteries without inverters, the light in the interior shots is excellent. Cheers!
I’ve been thinking you needed something else but couldn’t put my finger on it but the bookshelf was it. It tied it all together perfectly buddy. Well done. God Bless.
Well I can't imagine a more cozy setup than what you have built. Looks like you have all the necessities done and now just comes the luxuries. Bravo Shawn
Cali is so smart, such a trip! The shoe was classic, lol When are you getting her a mini me? Should now, that way she can help train up the new one. It's amazing how in tune our animals get with us when it's one on one. I am a loner by choice, but I've had this crazy cat for almost 20 years now. He's now toothless, getting old. Not sure who has trained whom, but I now know exactly when he's whining for his food, fresh water, (not that stuff that's been sitting, Mom. Cold stuff fresh out of the faucet) and Heaven forbid I get yelled at for not cleaning the litter box. I used to own shepherds, just too old to keep up with a dog anymore. Cudos for raising Cali to be such an amazing dog!
Now THAT's the bomb!! That made it a more homey home, for me. A cozy book nook! Another set-up is to turn the chairs sideways, facing into each other w/ a fur-covered ottoman between for both to prop their legs up on & tiny tables next to chair arm to place a hot cocoa or drink etc. That way you'd be engaged w/ the tempting wall of reading material & each other to look at/talk to. This entire property is shaping up into something pretty darned spectacular!
Lunch in a comfy chair with your bestie along side. Enjoying fruits of your labor in the cabin you built. Hand crafting a great bookshelf to add another dimension to your life. Love all you have going on. ❤️
That’s how I feel when spring is about to appear. Good energy ! Work is easy. Next winter , you’ll have the toasty enclosed nest by the fire . I’m so impatient to see the outdoor kitchen , the herb garden and the meditation spot you planned. Great content, Kali melted my heart !
Who needs a housing market when you’ve got the ability to build your own? Man, this is great stuff!
When there is space for sure!
Just wait until i tel you about hunting and gardening, youre gonna go nuts.

You still have to buy the land. And that’s not cheap either.
@joesandwich...nothings cheap is it? Not a reason not to do it
The hardest part of watching this channel is trying not to feel jealousy. Truly a beautiful thing you have going on.
Amazing how that bookcase took things from simple shelter to super cozy rustic home in one fell swoop!
I was thinking the same thing.
Once he builds the bathroom... will be a complete home...
@Lip Ripper A little envies are you.
@Lip Ripper home is where the heart is -maybe you don’t know what either are
@Lip Ripper I could live there 100% 🥰 Super cozy "shelter"!
A dog and a comfortable home alone. This must be the heaven.
Love how you apologize to Callie for her having to move. She let you know she wanted her toy back, still acts like a pup, love your relationship. Your cabin is now awesome
Find something else to love. Do you realize how stupid your mindset is?
I gotta tell you Shawn. You really put your all into this cabin. It’s way better than the last one. I just knew despite the problem with the neighbor, you were being guided to bigger, better and more Shawn-ish arrangements. The lord works in mysterious ways. Well done.
I hope it was a past problem and not a current one...he and the cottage deserve peace.
I was just thinking, how free and creative we can be without nosy, interfering neighbours. I am putting up with sensor lights shining over my fence every time I walk outside, or having my gardening work noted and approved or disapproved . Pity. No choice but to move to a better place.😊
we need a walking tour of the new cabin and out buildings once the weather is nice.
I would love to see a tour of the inside of the Cabin aswell and outside!? It can be done even in winter.
What a hoot - Cali lying down close to you as you nail another board, and you have to work around her, because she is not moving! What a terrific little actress Cali is - such an engaging personality. Love her to bits!
I was rooting for her to jump up on that chair in the beginning 🙂

So cozy! I love the new bookshelf wall, and table. ❤
Thank you Shawn 👍 you do such amazing work, always look forward to your videos, appreciate you my friend 🙏 Stay safe and take care 🙂
That bookcase is beautiful, it made a world of difference in the look of the cabin. Kudos to you sir-it’s all amazing.
Hi Shawn, watching this video I can't help but feel a deep sense of envy mixed with admiration for the taste and skill with which you are decorating your cabin while Cali keeps your chair warm. I guess the electricity comes from solar panels and batteries without inverters, the light in the interior shots is excellent. Cheers!
I’ve been thinking you needed something else but couldn’t put my finger on it but the bookshelf was it. It tied it all together perfectly buddy. Well done.
God Bless.
This home is just beautiful.
My kind of scene, warm/relaxing & Peaceful! Thanks for Sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well I can't imagine a more cozy setup than what you have built. Looks like you have all the necessities done and now just comes the luxuries. Bravo Shawn
The cabin is looking more cozy every week! We so enjoy all the work you have done on it. We love Callie!!!
Quite different from this time last year. I’m glad you are able to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Cali is so smart, such a trip! The shoe was classic, lol
When are you getting her a mini me?
Should now, that way she can help train up the new one.
It's amazing how in tune our animals get with us when it's one on one.
I am a loner by choice, but I've had this crazy cat for almost 20 years now. He's now toothless, getting old.
Not sure who has trained whom, but I now know exactly when he's whining for his food, fresh water, (not that stuff that's been sitting, Mom. Cold stuff fresh out of the faucet) and Heaven forbid I get yelled at for not cleaning the litter box.
I used to own shepherds, just too old to keep up with a dog anymore.
Cudos for raising Cali to be such an amazing dog!
I absolutely love the den and how you are creating a cozy cabin. It is unfolding beautifully. God bless!
Now THAT's the bomb!! That made it a more homey home, for me. A cozy book nook!
Another set-up is to turn the chairs sideways, facing into each other w/ a fur-covered ottoman between for both to prop their legs up on & tiny tables next to chair arm to place a hot cocoa or drink etc. That way you'd be engaged w/ the tempting wall of reading material & each other to look at/talk to.
This entire property is shaping up into something pretty darned spectacular!
It's beautiful, Shawn; so warm and cozy. What peace, comfort and satisfaction you must feel. You're amazing.
Lunch in a comfy chair with your bestie along side. Enjoying fruits of your labor in the cabin you built. Hand crafting a great bookshelf to add another dimension to your life. Love all you have going on. ❤️
The book shelf and end table both turned out fantastic!!
That’s how I feel when spring is about to appear. Good energy ! Work is easy. Next winter , you’ll have the toasty enclosed nest by the fire . I’m so impatient to see the outdoor kitchen , the herb garden and the meditation spot you planned. Great content, Kali melted my heart !
Starting to look like a home the accessories rug, end table, bookcase give the space more ambiance and warmth fantastic job. 💞
