    Im suprised no one is commenting on the solar panels... That 2x4 isn't going to hold those panels when it gets windy. It was flopping around when you were installing the panels. You need to mount the brace to multiple beams under the sheet metal. You can prevent the roof from leaking by drilling a pilot hole, filling it with silicone, applying silicone to the screw, then screwing everything in.

  • @jonathanscott476
    @jonathanscott476 9 днів тому +14

    The cabin looks great, what a fun build!
    A couple things that worry me a little however...
    1.) No housewrap. That's going to potentially mean moisture problems.
    2.) No horizonal running OSB beneath the vertical siding. I'm sure this won't cause issues, however the nice thing about running OSB horizonally beneath your siding is that it firmly locks your walls into place. Without it, you do lack a certain amount of horizonal strength, which may be more noticeable on the 2x4 walls.
    3.) Single pane windows. Depending on your climate this may not be an issue either...but I live in an area that can reach triple digits during the summer and -30 during the winter, double pane windows are a must.

    Does the creek lead into a larger body of water? Or lead off of your property? Did you guys look into how your dam/blockage will affect wildlife?
    This is definitely cool, but seems weird to mess with a natural water source.

    • @adrianweldon4218

      @@adrianweldon4218 I don't think he said it goes back into the creek directly, but just straight down onto the ground. But, obviously, it could run-off into the creek since it's so close. Not to mention how it could affect the soil and even the foundation of the home itself.
      I know they said they wouldn't be using the sink much, but then that just means creating a dam makes even less sense. They could have just set up a small tank they'd rarely have to fill, or even just carry in one of those gerry cans that van-lifers use whenever they go to the property.

    I love the build, but as a builder myself, I see some issues...you should have dropped the floor joists of the deck below the joists in the cabin. This is a recipe for disaster if the deck gets any water...it will infiltrate under the bottom plate as it's at the same level as the exterior deck. And the joists in the loft are too small. 2x6 minimum would be best.

    Only comment I could make is looks like you used a double-plug cord to backfeed the outlet at 14:09 which could zap someone if it gets yoinked out of the outlet while the end is hot. It would be much better to use a Power Inlet Receptacle such as the Leviton 5278-CWP so it's a lot safer. But otherwise, good job!

    I wish I had HALF the talent at building as you guys do. I can do the work, it just won't look anywhere near as good as your craftsmanship.
    Those solar panels are NOT going to provide enough power. They are in the shade under the trees, AND there are only 3 of them. For that TV alone you would need those 3 panels to have 7 or 8 hours of direct sunlight to watch an entire movie (TV power, inverter losses)
    Also kinda wondered why you didn't just use 12V lighting and water pump? You could even have used an RV TV that runs off 12VDC. That way you wouldn't need the inverter (power hog).

    Someone may have already pointed it out, but I don't think there's nearly enough room for that wood stove where you put it. Wood stoves need a fair amount of clearance to be able to burn safely - you need heat shields on those cabinets before using it.
