    I've been watching for years, have learned a lot about homesteading, and a lot about you. As someone that battles addiction, you've always been someone that reminds me that there are other options. And I thank you

    With the amount of rough cut lumber on that chicken house, you could build a heli pad on top and be fine.

    If it doesn't bounce, you're good.

    If it's a trampoline, that's what's known as not good, but you'll be fine for tree forts and chickens.

    Internal combustion is carbon neutral, you take carbon out of the ground in the form of petroleum and put it in the air for plants to put back into the ground or turn the plant into petroleum (new thing in still in experimentation).

  • @Jordan-tq2jc
    @Jordan-tq2jc 7 місяців тому

    I do believe in following the principles of building science… I but I hate “the code” in most situations. “The code” (different in every county and zone/region) destroys creativity, ingenuity, and freedom. It’s used like “military logic” where everything is dumbed down to ensure the lowest common denominator can’t F it up…
    Some argue it keeps houses from falling down? Maybe, but I’ve lived in counties with no code… did some houses really suck? Yup. But people built them without getting into debt and lived mostly as they pleased.
    I’ve studied and read the IRC, I understand why it’s in place. I just disagree that it should be used (and abused) to extent that it is in combination with terrible zoning laws.
    Looks good, have fun!

  • @blindtomsadventures2067
    @blindtomsadventures2067 9 місяців тому

    I do agree with you it’s built nice and strong and heavy. But if you get caught, they can make you tear it down or give you a big fine.. And I can fly over your place now and take pictures with a drone. what county can Sam because you’re kind of making it public for everyone to see. I do agree with you. It’s heavily built.
