    That was amazing!! Well done on all fronts! Having some experience with building our own log home, i can truly appreciate what you n your family have accomplished. I can’t wait to see it as it unfolds. The lessons you’ve taught your boys and the experience alone will shape them into the men this world needs more of. Kudos to you n your wife- truly a team effort! Thank you for sharing❣️Watching from Oregon

    I just watched this video, and I must say, you are a hard worker and a wise worker, and your sons have been taught well. It would be great to see a picture side by side of when you landed on the banks and one of you and your family and the day you're finished. It was really neat watching them grow for 6 years. Your wife has the patience of Job. What all you and your family have accomplished is nothing short of amazing. I hope you continue to film and your tiny cabin becomes a cabin for your eldest son and his family when the time comes. By the time they are all grown and married, there can be 4 tiny cabins, one for each. Great video and great job. Your wife did an excellent job of videoing all this, and whoever edited it all awesome job! I will for sure continue watching.

      @FITNESSOVER45 I cut rough notches in the corners to get the log level to the log below then I set my scribe depth and scribe the log. If you watch me earlier videos I went into a little more detail. If you are wanting to build a full scribe cabin I would suggest Rob Chambers book and dvd set for building log homes. This was the first log work I ever did and I followed his rules which helped the project go smooth. The 3 wheeler was a 200

    What system did you use for your hand driven wells? How deep did you have to go? I’ve never seen anything like that before and am interested. Is the water clean enough to drink?

    • @diyalaskanlifestyle
      @diyalaskanlifestyle  8 місяців тому +1

      I am driving 2” pipe in the ground with a jack hammer. for the point you have a couple different options sand point and gravel point or you can just cut and weld your own out of 2” pipe and drill a bunch of 3/8” holes in it. 1 1/4” pipe and points are also available. Typically wells around The interior of alaska are 40’. Once the well pipe is in the ground I run air to the bottom of the pipe and let the air bubble and blow out the sand and silt creating a big void of just gravel around the point. I like to do these wells vs 6” cased wells with submersible pump because the cost savings is huge.

I also have a 2” in the cabin which I have a 12 volt pump that fits in the pipe with 1/2” or maybe 5/8” hose that runs up to the cabin these pumps are awesome the don’t have a foot valve in them so when you shut it off the water drains back down into the well. So I can show up in the middle of the winter and have running water and nothing is froze “most of the time. I also drove a 3rd 2” well outside for filling the hot tub so I didn’t have to pump silty water out of the river I do this with a 2” pump

    Sir, all the respect and admiration are directed to you and your family. Out of the banks of a river full of a tangle of rose hips and thorns comes a testament to your vision and hard work. It’s amazing to see the boys as they grow through the years at the cabin build. From nothing more than toddlers to amazing young men. My hats is off to Miranda and you for embarking on a life building adventure. I’m sure the boys and the entire family for that matter, are flooded with memories every time you look at those log walls. P.S. as a welder myself I find great pleasure watching you fabricate tools from raw stock. Great channel and an even more amazing family. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Can’t wait for more. Give yourself a pat on the back, you Sir deserve it.

    Greets and Love from Hamburg in Germany. THAT was a nice construction video!
    Hart work creates cool kids! My wife and I love to watch your family growing in age and capebilitys! We have no kids. Was not possible. No drama :-)
    As a facility manager with carpenter backround- 30 years building high end buidlings I have a "love for log homes" I read the books from Dick Proenecke (German roots also)
    and my grandmother had build a log home in the wood in Germany in the near of Dortumnd the city- where she hided herself in the holocaust. I visited this log home on stone foundaments 2 times. This log home had 4 rooms- a cellar where you could "walk on knees"
    Of course traditionell shutters to reduce the cold in winter.
    This loghome is still in use. One of my family members from the mothers side bought this cabin "from the other 5 relatives" they meet each other for hunting and party there.
    Special tipps:
    1: Pressboards or chipboards allways the high quality absolute waterproofe.
    The extra dollar is a good invest because the not water resistance boards looses the stability when they get rain water and sun...also they have a better surface for hard treatments...Water proof boards conected with flexibel outdoore silicon!
    2: Fake insolation: Fake insolation is an invention from the USA. Rockwool and glaswool
    are fake insolations. They can work as insolation when they are absolute protected from the air in a foil. Air transports humidity into the fibers and it gets never out of there it starts to rotten and creates fungi that is not healthy. wood has allways humidity inside the fiber and this humidity- in touch with the fiber will go into it.
    The natural traditionell insolation material between logs is real wool-felt tracks moss.
    In sibiria scandainavia Germany austria everywhere we build log on log we use natural material because it can dry when its warm and it is a "living thing" it will never rotten.
    its activ in its fiber. Sometimes the suroundings from outside or inside has more humidity and this material will work with it.
    Styroopor will shrink after some years- and gets porös. Then it looses the conects to the floor system. Coldbridges can fellow.
    A no cost insolation traditionell is wood dust.But wood dust only function when it has a real wood slat foundament and no pressboards. Pressboards dont breathe..
    They have no natural fiber. (Check out the canal YT Northmen "the birth of a wooden home" he shows how to use wood dust as insolation)
    The safty first thing: I know some guys how had not only lost a part of the body or brocken bones- loosing an eye can be hart. When using the hammer on metall allways wearing glases. Also the kids. We had it more then once the metal splinter from the hit of the hammer fleys into the eys. Do you have a first aid eye washer bottle???
    Verry nice
    floor lifting system you had build! When the earth is mooving you can lift it as much you need it!
    A real mudroome is also a cool thing and of course: Shutters! They reduce the cold pressure into the cabin 100% and the heat from inside is not flaying away...

      The step ladder- extra: many kill themsefle when stepping wrong on a ladder or when they stepp down. It does not matter how big it is. splipping is anonther topic danger. As a facility manager I am trained in safty first work laws. We in Germany have a special carpenter insurance or welder- its a backUp for the worker in case of an accident whit live changing disabilitys. So every worker you uses a ladder gets a 1 hour training on the job by a professionell. After this they sign the paper "I am well trained" and after that the worker MUST respekt the law of safty first. No payment when not obaying...of course there are tricks.
      The goal must be: Work secure on a ladder- it can kill you.
      Trick nummero UNO: ou build an extra feed (out of metall or alu or even handmade wood- to the end of the ladder and the finish. Gives the ladder more stability to both sides.But 2 sticks into the earth ladder eara to make sure that it can slipp away when you stepp on it.
      The most importend way to work safe: Bind the ladder on the highest point to the building- with a rope or other stuff. This will make sure that it can fall to the side even if you change the position.
      Put the ladder into the direction your work! The work must be in front of your face.And if you have a second hand- ask for a keeper of the ladder...
      Some fall from the ladder because they are to lazy to change position. They hang to one side and then the ladder drifts away...
      Love Frank

    So while all the waiting is going on, each of your children needs to build their own cabin.
    All of you have proven what you can do so just keep the momentum going.
    I bet that you and your wife will be as thrilled as all get-out to have the next generation of kids there.

    Were these logs green when they went up?.... or how long did they dry out?

    Need to learn better tree felling skills .having the children so close to trees when cutting is not safe..what would happen if your saw kicked back when your son was pushing on tree? Or if the tree was ro barber chair? Or a Widow Maker was to fall .
    You are working to achieve a wonderful place for you and the family ..make sure in the end all are there to enjoy it❤

    the more I watch these kinds of videos, the more I realize that in the U.S. everyone does as they please, with no rules. NO used protective helmets, anti-injury shoes, the most basic safety rules: go 5 meters high on unsuitable ladders and without being protected in any way. Here, even, there are children under heavy suspended loads, with equipment that is neither checked nor serviced. But I see that the important thing is to put weapons in the hands of teenagers to shoot animals that live in peace.......you are not nature lovers. You are people who are incapable of living with the rules of the city and go to live in places where you can do whatever you want, legal or illegal.
