    We got in the groove and knocked out the other 3 walls, got everything tied together AND we built a solar power station to run saws and chargers. Our off grid cabin build is coming along really well!

      @@DIYOffgridTexas Looking at her arms and shoulders she is built for work! I'm not making fun or being smart. I respect a woman who can get down with men. My woman is the same way, and it is such a relief when I'm busy with something and I tell her what I need, and she gets it done. BTW, what part of Tx? Am in Houston.

    From my observations, I like it for what it's worth. I believe this man has some good idead and has done an excellent job. There are some things I see done a little different but it is not to be said in a negative way. There wasn't any use of a jack stud for the window headers, and the door has an irregular header. Other than that just the 2x4 blocking was done vertically in some areas but I am very confident that this will hold up just dine and will be following to see some awesome progress from this man and his wife. It is super awesome to see that this is a strong couple willing put in the effort in building something monumental in their lives. It truly shows hard work and dedication. My hat does off to the both of them.

    As absolutely lovely as this is... and always will be thanks to the internet, i have a question. Why didnt you shore up that top wall joint, or put a stud to join the two 2x4s? Just asking because id like to know how to avoid the wall coming apart at the top when you lift it.

    • @DIYOffgridTexas

    Thats an interesting design, after building for a lifetime an retired now I'm invested now. So hope the best for you guys. Only question i have is where was the temporary braces or kickers on all those walls untill you return for next move. I may have missed it but usually theres a brace every 4 to 6 feet temporary kicker on framing walls untill joist an rafters are on to secure it. Its a sad site to come back an it's all laying down because of win or whatever freak of nature mother nature desides to provide.
