My dad was an old school carpenter and has built everything you can imagine, homes, boats, furniture, even wood carving. He preferred hand tools over electric and used a brace & bit to drill holes. I inherited all of his tools and still use them. He used to have a 2 man ripsaw but I was never able to find it, I do have a 1 man ripsaw. Great project! I cant wait to see construction begin. Drafting, by the way, is hands on, as drawings will make your construction more accurate with less waste.
My wife and I are starting our morning watching you video. You intrigue us even though we do not plan on homesteading or building a house. Love the scenery added to the video. The closing scene was spectacular.
Following this journey with you guys has been awesome. I love the way you continue to give you wife compliments about how well she is doing as well as making it enjoyable for you both!!
Your videos bring back so many memories of when we used to live in New Hampshire (we returned to Florida). Some day I should take my son back to see where he was born.
I agree with Dan Pettersen. When I was younger I had always wanted to take a class like this and it is so cool to get a view into some of the classes that they are teaching in these workshops. And your doing a great job at filming and editing. I have no regrets for never fulfilling that dream of attending this course. Life went in a different direction for me, but I so appreciate getting a glimpse into what it might have been like. Can't wait for the next class! Thanks guys.~Dolly
Who is thumbs downing any of these videos they are all very well shot, thought out and give good information. I'd like to see anyone who gives a thumbs down build a house or make anything besides UA-cam comments.
Awesome job guys! I have never used a small saw like those before. I know in high school, in forestry class and competitions, the trick with the single and double-bucking saws was to get a rhythm going. As long as you could keep it moving, even slowly until you got the hang of it, you would get it stuck and hard to start again.... then it feels like your trying to pull your shoulder out of place! I love following your channel and wish I could do the same, maybe 20 yrs ago. Just so you know I live vicariously thru you. so enjoy it for all of us!
Your trip is probably my favorite videos so far. Here's a tip, if you don't already know, if you are shipping tools back home, UPS is a cheaper way to go. I moved my son with UPS. Have fun and stay safe.
Thanks to both of you for sharing you adventure. It is like being in the class and learning alongside you. I enjoy filling in between the lines what you are doing throughout the process. Your home is going to be a work of art, I do believe.
I had to stop the video at 5:00, you two have such a glow and happiness that is pouring out!! Also you have a great foundation for your relationship and homestead. I think being away from home is doing the two of you a tremendous amount of energy boosting, so you can go home with new skills and new outlook!
Super excited to see your Timber Frame Workshop adventures unfold. I bought a small Silky Gomboy saw for my son and I's backpacking adventures. Its a phenomenal saw. Good luck with the rest of your week in class!
3 years ago wife and I started our schooling on log home building. Researching what we wanted and how to do it. It took us almost one year to build it. We finished year ago this month. So watching you two bring back all the fun times we had building. keep up all the good work.thanks for the videos.
I'm so happy your filming your experience. I have been thinking of doing a timber frame school for some time...this helps so much. Thank you for your videos!
Very nice episode! One thing others point out below: let the saw do the work. That is true but not easy to understand. The learning goes faster if you make (almost) elliptical motions in the beginning. (With a pull-saw) Let the saw "rest" on the material "away", just pull towards you, then lift and only when "away" put the saw back on the material. The lift is essential, also with files. Sharpness is retained longer, no material gets stuck between the teeth and it falls out with the saw strokes. After some practicing time the lifting becomes an automatism an somebody else will not really see you doing that.
Ha! you guys are awesome! I was looking for some self help on living with an alcoholic and the matrix decided I needed to watch you guys instead! Subscribed and thanks for making me smile, congratulation dynamic duo...my faith in people survives another day!
What a great video ! I really liked the music it was a perfect fit . Seems like a lot to learn . Can't wait to follow your progress . Good luck you two !
Awsome video it kinda reminds me of my childhood. Putting up a wooden fence around the garden. It took me 3 days and it was horribe in the middle of summer when i was done i was happy... untill i got the news that i needed to treat the wood for weather and wind. Mistakes where made and it only lasted 2-3 years. So lesson learned treat it first then build it :)
Drove by Shelter this weekend and stopped in while at Lie-Neilsen and the shop was awesome! Didn't know about it until I watched your video. Glad I was able to see it and mentioned your video and they appreciated the exposure from you. Keep it up!
I am moving to Scotland in the near future,second time in my life I have started a new life. Wish I could have done something you are doing but left it too late. I will have a workshop,loads of tools,so console myself with that. Good luck in your future,love your vids and hope to see more.
This is great to see this course since it's so close to home an I'm also preparing to build my home. I'm just hours away in New Brunswick and will consider it in the future. You're doing one of my favorite things now, as I did architectural drafting in my four years of drafting classes. I adored them.
This was fun. I almost felt like I was in class with the both of you. Can't wait to see what you both with do with your new skills and ideas on your homestead. Watching from sunny California, Bay Area Angel
thanks!enjoying you journey. I am in love with timber frame. probably will not ever live in one unless I build it myself. I don't t think one person can do that! I grew up with 3 tf barns. huge! what joy.
I enjoyed the paper drafting scenes, it was like trying to learn whether to be precise or expressive. We used power erasers with metal erasing shields. I thought modern people had all gone to using computer drafting. I have been using Rhinoceros 5 to draft harps because it is a good three dimensional language, but what you did is much better for the task as it puts it fresh into your mind so that you don't have to think too much when you are looking for dimensions when you begin to cut timber. We had a Maine shipbuilder for a teacher, so we had to learn to use hand tools in primary woodworking too. I love the Japanese saws.
I've been loving your videos and progress as you "learn on the go"! The humor and photography/camera/editing leaves me looking forward to the next vlog! Inspiring!😊 Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
Wish you guys could come up and see our post and beam in Stonington, ME. a bit further up the coast. Ours was made in CT by Country Builders and trucked to the site. My wife and I will be doing a guest house ourselves. After seeing this video series I think we better take the course at the Shelter Institute first. Thanks.
+BB Pring Appreciate the invite! Be sure to mention Pure Living for Life to Pat and Blueberry when you schedule your workshop. It'll make them smile and get you extra good treatment. Haha. ;)
The most sensible technique to start a saw cut is to fold your thumb under your hand. Using the tip of the saw, rest against the knuckle of your folded thumb. Then slowly using the top 2 to 3 inches of the saw make shallow cuts to establish the cut track. Next you can unfold your thumb and place your hand away from the cut and start to use longer strokes.
I'm fixing my mobile home and your channel help me a lot. I don't have no experience in how to fix things but I got excited to do it by watching your videos thanks. I live in Cedar rapids Iowa
hi guys, love the content, and really digging your lifestyle. im at work when i stream your channel and so i dont so much watch them during the day, i listen to them, and then watch them at home so talking more and descriptions are a plus. keep up the great job!!
Looks like you're really enjoying yourselves and doing some great learning too - I love the lecture/classroom environment because it gives you the opportunity to ask lots of stupid questions :)
Love this....Gonna have to look into a timber framing course.... Also you guys are just awesome together... I've probably said it before to you guys but I love your interactions with each other.
Thanks for taking us along. Laughing at the struggle with the saw -- It seems a new saw is often more 'grabby' and hard to work. I often hate the new saw and force myself to use it through its breaking in. Seems quite emphasis on hand-work. To each their own - I'd be buying/building mortising chainsaw, and setting up a looong cross cut station for rapid wood processing - would save hundreds of hours. Yeah - someday we may be forced to use hand tools - but then I wouldn't be embarking on building a house. I'm for getting the job done well, yet as efficiently as possible. But we all have our own ways of working. Love seeing you working together.
RH, i agree for flush cuts like this, milling ect, power tools are the way to go to save time, but the class starts with the basics and teaches techniques. I dont know much about timber framing, but I imagine a lot of the joinery is easiest accomplished with hand cuts, hence the need to learn the skill at a fundamental level. love your channel btw
Agreed - in teaching its best to start with principles and hand tools - but I never see any mention of speeding it with power tools on their plans. You'll see the pros mostly use power tools, more repeatable, accurate and quicker. There are many similar cuts being made. Again, like I said people have their reasons - I am certainly not saying its wrong, only saying 'my inclination' would be to speed the work to get-er done.
Here in Colombia we hardly build houses with wood structure, but I love woodworking, then I love the idea to take a class like this. I think I will take course like this one day. Maine... I don't even know where is that in US, i will need to check the map... anyway, enjoy the class, I will follow you from Colombia. cheers!
Using pull saws for cutting is generally easier and leads to more precise work. They are also easier to use by smaller stature people. That is why most japanese saws are of the pull type.
I built my little man cave, (log cabin) with a Chinese chainsaw, Taiwan Chop saw, Korean hand tools, and POS, Hungarian auto called a Hugo to pick supplies up, but I did use American lumber, so I have a multi cultural cabin sitting in Asheville, N.C.
I'm glad that you're drafting with hand tools. I, too, had drafting in high school. I've been doing CAD drafting for my log homes. I'm way better on the computer for having learned hand techniques.
WoW ! the Shelter Institute...been at this a long time. One of the best books for amateurs, I've ever read/studied is, "From the Ground Up", John N. Cole and Charles Wing who worked with Pat and Patsy Hennin to develop a school for teaching others how to build your own house.
Looks like a dream class to take so far!!!! Can you put up some more footage of the tool store they've got at the school, so I can drool & envy you two even more???? Thanks gang!!! :)
Looks to me like it was worth the pain of travel and expense. The school looks to be set up really well. Also, very cool that they are letting you film in the classes.
I hope they are giving you guys a discount on tools for documenting this. Ive been in the market for diamond stones for a while so I decided to check out there store online and they have the stones I want $20/stone cheaper than Ive been able to find. So I went ahead and ordered them. Im from Maine originally so its nice to support my home state. It'll be nice to hear what your thoughts are on the class at the end so ill stay tuned! Enjoy Maine and eat some Lobstah!
Holy shit, you're at Shelter Institute! Those guys are great, took the same class there a while back. Never got to finish because I came down with the flu, but got through most of it! This is really cool because I feel like I can catch up on the days I missed. Cheers from Bangor, ME.
I know you are so busy just trying to get your build done. But it would be real cool to see a brief video with a name and description of all of your timber frame cutting tools at some point!
Hi Guy's Great videos I hope the rest of the series continues like this. I am in the UK and would like one of your off cuts PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. Doug.
this may sound crazy but while reading a black belt magazine i read an artical about those sawa you used . a karate instructor hhad a tree fall in his yard and he struggled with an american rip saw to cut it in to pieces. his neighbor who was japanese saw this and cam out with a saw like you were working with and used his his to push and pull instead of his arms and made quick work of the tree. now this story was ment to show how diffrent styles and practices helped you to become better in your arts but i think it applies here also.
Okay I just gots to say it once again "YOU KIDS ARE SO BLESSED" God has opened the windows in heaven and HE'S showering down the blessings of teaching and HE has opened the doors to your willingness to learn and your minds to understand what is being taught making it possible for ya'll the build the home of your dreams...
Your wife is such a keeper. Her attitude is amazing. You both make a great couple. Fun to watch!

There's nothing in the world like the coast of Maine. Enjoy it while you're there.
It´s so awesome that you guys film some of the stuff you do during the course. :-)
Dan Pettersen I totally agree!
I agree with Talasbuan about Dan Pettersens comment.
I agree with JimsEquipmentShed about Talasbuan agreeing with Dan Pettersens comment.
I agree that 1centplus1cent agrees that JimsEquipmentShed agrees with Talasbuan about my comment. :-)
^^What they all said!^^ 😜
I'm so happy your filming your experience. I have been thinking of doing a timber frame school for some time...this helps so much. Thank you for your videos!
Looks like you guys are taking the right approach. Can't wait to see your new home when it's done.
I like you show us what you are doing during the day. Thank you for sharing your amazing video

Keep up the good spirits. It's a moodlifter for many and intro to the good in front of us. 👍
I wish all of my classes were like this... So professional and nice. Everyone got their work done. Unlike my class.
Seriously homesick! Thanks for showing some of the sights.
I'm just so happy for you guys! I hope you enjoy, learn a lot, and go home envigorated! :)

Thank you for sharing your journey with us.
you kids rock! I have enjoyed watching the two of you grow in your endeavor
Great first class day video. Can't wait for the rest of the videos.
That's so cool. Happy for you two. What an amazing experience.

Looks like you're really enjoying yourselves and doing some great learning too - I love the lecture/classroom environment because it gives you the opportunity to ask lots of stupid questions :)
That was great watching guys do that stuff
very well put together video...what a beautiful sunset..hope your dinner was good we enjoyed watching your class.
Love this....Gonna have to look into a timber framing course....
Also you guys are just awesome together... I've probably said it before to you guys but I love your interactions with each other.
I love Japanese style pull saws and use them for everything. But I have never had a good one. Thanks for turning me on to Zorin.
Great stuff guys. I so want to go through this course.
Thanks for taking us along.

Can't wait for your home build

Another video masterpiece .. value the info and appreciate the video editing.. great B footage, music and still entertaining.
I built my little man cave, (log cabin) with a Chinese chainsaw, Taiwan Chop saw, Korean hand tools, and POS, Hungarian auto called a Hugo to pick supplies up, but I did use American lumber, so I have a multi cultural cabin sitting in Asheville, N.C.
for drafting and architecture drawing a little opaline bag at the ready keeps drawing cleann and smug-free!the powder comes right through the bag!
i envy you guys on all the hard work you both are doing. i'm hoping to start my tiny house build after my wedding in aug.
hands on priceless about 2001 went to school to make a winsdor chair lots of fun
lots or learning
I'm glad that you're drafting with hand tools. I, too, had drafting in high school. I've been doing CAD drafting for my log homes. I'm way better on the computer for having learned hand techniques.
all those structures are so damn beautiful.
WoW ! the Shelter Institute...been at this a long time. One of the best books for amateurs, I've ever read/studied is, "From the Ground Up", John N. Cole and Charles Wing who worked with Pat and Patsy Hennin to develop a school for teaching others how to build your own house.
Amazing couple. Keep up the good work/ videos
Your video was better than good ..... it was great. Keep up the good work.
After using a pencil and square a sharp knife is used to cut the wood so the saw cut will be clean.
i'd love one of those blocks! seriously
this is a blast to watch.
im so inspired by your channel. keep it up!
Looks like a dream class to take so far!!!! Can you put up some more footage of the tool store they've got at the school, so I can drool & envy you two even more???? Thanks gang!!! :)
Looks to me like it was worth the pain of travel and expense. The school looks to be set up really well.
Also, very cool that they are letting you film in the classes.
Odd how I was searching for a saw mill a year(s?) back when you guys had 30k subs, now 130k! Congrats! doing awesome
That is so awesome you guys. Learn and learn good.
Eve n at x2 speed this vid is brill ,thanks peps. Keep on working .
seeing you guys at dinner and in a social environment would have been quite cool i think for your viewers.
Love the class videos and the pre/post briefs! Thanks guys! :) P.S. your editing is on par!! :)
They have sun in April! Bring it home.
I hope they are giving you guys a discount on tools for documenting this. Ive been in the market for diamond stones for a while so I decided to check out there store online and they have the stones I want $20/stone cheaper than Ive been able to find. So I went ahead and ordered them. Im from Maine originally so its nice to support my home state. It'll be nice to hear what your thoughts are on the class at the end so ill stay tuned! Enjoy Maine and eat some Lobstah!
Bryan Owen if you take the class 10% off tools for life.
Class looks very cool.
Great Video and am surprised you can get such great video. Enjoy !!!!
Holy shit, you're at Shelter Institute! Those guys are great, took the same class there a while back. Never got to finish because I came down with the flu, but got through most of it! This is really cool because I feel like I can catch up on the days I missed. Cheers from Bangor, ME.
Did they stop teaching you guys to scribe the lines with a knife instead of a pencil?
Are you going to be skinning the house in SIP panels?
Just got to love those 2.
Thank you for sharing. You got me thinking.
thanx for sharing your progress love this
I really enjoyed this. Thank you
I was surprised that they had you cutting "on the line". I figured you would "leave the line" and then plane down to it.
I know you are so busy just trying to get your build done. But it would be real cool to see a brief video with a name and description of all of your timber frame cutting tools at some point!
Hi Guy's
Great videos I hope the rest of the series continues like this.
I am in the UK and would like one of your off cuts PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.
Doug.
Love your work guys
learned to draft with the t square and paper. fun stuff. Now I'm behind a computer screen.
Super job both of you
this may sound crazy but while reading a black belt magazine i read an artical about those sawa you used . a karate instructor hhad a tree fall in his yard and he struggled with an american rip saw to cut it in to pieces. his neighbor who was japanese saw this and cam out with a saw like you were working with and used his his to push and pull instead of his arms and made quick work of the tree. now this story was ment to show how diffrent styles and practices helped you to become better in your arts but i think it applies here also.
Tom Carver Wax on Wax off...
Jess and Alyssa are so funny
Okay I just gots to say it once again "YOU KIDS ARE SO BLESSED" God has opened the windows in heaven and HE'S showering down the blessings of teaching and HE has opened the doors to your willingness to learn and your minds to understand what is being taught making it possible for ya'll the build the home of your dreams...
Very enjoyable video! GOD bless. JC
Great video .. looks like fun
