    I dont know if you realize how lucky you are. Your dad has taught you things that you can use in life forever. My dad used to beat the crap out of us and my mom. I thought I was invisible growing up, he never talked to me or acknowledged me. Now that I am a dad, (he's 7 and I am 50) I show him everything, how to cook, fix things and most importantly, how to be a good, decent human being. I love your videos, I wonder what it would have been like to have a dad like yours.

    Cute tractor it reminds me of my dad...the clinking of tools in the box& his trucker cap. We had a bunkhouse on an oxbow lake off the Missouri river in Iowa south of the airbase. 25 acres of woods ,an old orchard,and beautiful sandy soil that grew the most delicious tomatoes and black diamond watermelon. It's a kind of work that is the best kind of exhausting. Thanks for taking the time to record your time& reminding me of mine. The sound of the tractor & chain saw remind me of my dad.thankyou.!

It would literally give you a nose bleed. Lord what I wouldn't do today for that miserable experience just to have them back alive again.

    Hey Outsider, just wanted to say how satisfying it was to see your tractor back up and running! The ignition solenoid was exactly what went bad on our 1940's ferguson te20 a couple years ago, and for anyone who has never been in need of your tractor and not had it running, you know man, it isn't fun! Very glad to see the cabin project back up and running, you should have your dad narrate an episode lol

    • @christopherterry5235
      @christopherterry5235 6 років тому +1

      So, that is an ignition solenoid? It's not the starter relay? Or is it a solenoid relay? I only ask because all my life that was the relay so I am confused. I knoe it doesn't matter much...just curious.

    • @aveoxus1139
      @aveoxus1139 6 років тому +1

      It's basically the same thing, I got confused too so I looked it up. Starter relays/solenoids are basically just a big switch that activates after the key is turned, the ignition having a tiny charge then activates the solenoid/relay sending the full 6 to 12 volts from the battery and the ignition and into the starter itself. Fun stuff really

    • @christopherterry5235
      @christopherterry5235 6 років тому +1

      AH...thanks. Some starter relays don't use a solenoid but an armature. I guess I got confused because there is another solenoid on the starter itself. Thanks! Learn something new all the time - even after all this time.

    What an unexpected pleasure, happening by and clicking on your video! I worked alongside my stepdad, at the base of Mt.Rainier, 30 miles up into the woods on a logging road. We joined two loggers' bunkhouses together in a "T" shape, in an abandoned logging camp, and made a terrific cabin for the five of us..2sisters & mom. We lived in it while working on it, so it was rough in the beginning. I loved working with him,learning how to use tools&learning all their names, making hand-hewn shakes for the roof, etc,and hand made scenic glazed tiles to inset into the stone wall we made next to the hooded stone fireplace. I particularly enjoyed your voice & spare narration, and the silence in yr video. I could just SMELL the fresh cut wood, and the rain. Thanks for such a beautiful, peaceful video, that brought back the very best part of a complicated childhood. We went to sleep to the sounds of the coyotes howling...it was pure bliss. I often slept outside, alone, away from the cabin, looking up at the stars, pretending I was a wild child, raised by the animals I gradually tamed, far from civilization....
    I miss it to this day, and long to return.
    Your video granted me the crackling fire, silence, and the lullaby of howling wolves. I'll sleep well tonight,
    in the middle of San Francisco....those sounds fresh in my mind.
    Again, thank you, and
    Peace.💕

    I too found you as a 'suggested video'... I watch many 'narrow boat' videos about the canals in the UK. They heat a large 68+ foot narrow boat using a 'yatch heater' still burns logs or coal but so small, saves space plus has fans attached go spread heat around. I realize you 'saved $$$' knowing your bunkhouse is temporary...i still would use your bunkhouse later, as you will, but those lil yatch heaters really save space and put out tons of heat! Love the vid!

    Thank you for the video!! I was so excited that the tractor is back up and running!! Also $160 for the bunkhouse is great, I’d imagine if I tried to do the same it would cost a lot more. In addition Just for safety purposes, I would store your gasoline outside of the bunkhouse it maybe a little box or something. I think that if there were a fire, it would be hard to get out of the top bunk. (p.s. bunkhouse is the former name for bughouse, a variation of the game of chess)

    Looks like great times with your father... enjoy!
    Many don't have that honor.
    Considering that one of the biggest expenses in any building project is lumber, the $160 price tag is a bit of a misnomer, as it would be completely unattainable unless you had the portable sawmill - that can cost thousands for a basic setup, plus the chainsaws, tractor, generator, etc...
    I've always thought it would be fantastic to have such a setup & do something such as this,
    Though i am personally not a fan of the extreme cold temps.
    Keep up the good work, interested to see how the cabin turns out .
    But more importantly,
    Relish the invaluable time with your father.

    Awesome build and so glad the tractor is able to work again. We just got a wood stove installed in our house as well. This is my favourite channel. :)

    This would be a great setup to just hunt out of or to just get away for the weekend. Great idea!!!

    Great progress Outsider, you and your Dad make the dynamic duo. Great to get the tractor running and a place to lay the head. Brings back many memories of helping my father-in-law build their cottage off grid, lots of challengs to be sure; and yes, we had an old tractor to do the heavy work lol.
