  • We’ve been staying cozy in our off grid cabin during a couple of windy snowstorms. After the storms we were met with some much welcomed sunshine. I also got a good deal on a 4 wheeler. #diy #winter #homestead

    This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.

If you choose to live like this ya gotta have a partner who will and knows what’s in stake. I even hated to say this, but I liked seeing her more active too

    This winter has been crap. Not sure how much you guys ended up with up there, but down here in the cities we got North of 80"? Maybe 82"? Think it put us in the top 10 for Minnesota winter snowfall. To say I'm over it, would be an understatement. Thankfully the forecast is looking to be high 30's to mid 40's every day now.

    Kyle, you should always cut a notch in a tree before falling it. Balsam and spruce are notorious for having butt rot, causing the tree to barber chair. (Split and half the tree can rare up and kill you) I just lost a friend to this last summer. He never knew what hit him, it happened so fast. He never thought it would happen to him either. Please take all precautions when falling trees. I enjoy your content, and want to watch you for many years to come. I'm not trying to be a know it all, but am concerned for your safety, and we'll being.

    Regarding that wheeler, as I learned with the used Sportsman I picked up:
    1. A plow is a god send
    2. About $15 for a couple led pods for extra light is a must
    3. Amazon, Anderson connector 2-4 gauge, for your battery. Quick disconnect, bring inside during winter. Take out, plug in and go. Save on battery wear
    4. Build a little shed/shelter. Store the wheeler and some tools, protect from elements, helps starting in winter
    5. Trailer trailer trailer. Watch Craigslist, similar, and can always find something. Ended up finding a 2000 Sportsman 335 and a 500 that I tinkered back to life. For $20 on each, added receiver hitches that can use pin and a 2" ball. Both can pull a little tilt metal trailer I found, a gorilla trailer, even a 6'x8' and the two wheeler trailers. Helpful on yard work, hauling etc. Smaller doesn't mean useless, especially when seeing hand pulling a sled all the time.
    Lastly, a 12v accessory plug. If you don't have one on there, they're easy to wire up. Helpful for charging little things when out and about, etc.
    Oh... Maybe liberty stick holder attachment 👍

    Couple words of advice from an old guy, the ramp should have a chain, most do, to hook to the tailgate so it doesn’t fall out on the way up or down , good practice to use it, you can stand beside the quad , get it in reverse and let it roll down the ramp to the ground , no fear of it falling over on you , Safety First when you’re isolated like that , awesome video , keep them coming
