1st off, I watched part 1 and 2.@jacobcochrane. I see what you are doing, but I have to critique some of the things you did. I,ve been a carpenter for 30 yrs. The 1st critique is wheres part 3? Never start something without finishing it. My second critique is the base seems to have a lot of unnecessary steps and some material that is being over used. Look, I think it's great you took the time to show people one way this can be done. However, if someone needed to build a cabin from pallets I would think it would be a person without much. Why not show us how to build it with as little as possible and with only hand tools? My opinion and critique of your video is just that. Don't let it stop you from doing what your doing, or make you angry. I am just saying it to say it, and asking to ask. Good luck your future videos, and endeavors on UA-cam.
@@jacobcochrane They're free if you come and get them. I just went out and checked, ive got seven 3'x12' pieces and eleven shorter pieces they're all like 4'-5' long. Totally enough to cover the pallet cabin. I pulled them off a house that got demolished in Sequim years ago and they've been sitting on a pallet ever since. You can't have the pallet though, most of it became soil again.
Im very excited to see the final product! Also I want to build something like this so its fun and inspiring to watch your content! Please keep making vids!!
I’m so glad to hear that! Love the idea that my content inspires folks to try new things and push themselves a bit :))) more videos to come don’t you worry!
Been following you on your other socials for a bit now. Wanted to come show support here and watch the full vids. Didnt skip ads either lol gotta support a fellow WA creator 🫂💙
Magnificent stuff man!! The build and the video! Really meditative to watch you work. Like everyone else, looking forward to Part 2. Step by step, day by day.
Super dope video. I would like a voice over to explain each step and maybe add some of your comments. I look forward to watching more of your content. Your the man.
That’s amazing work you’re doing. Your hardwork and talent will pay off for you. And is very inspiring to see. I wanna purchase some land one day and build on it someday.
I don't know where in Washington you live but if you live near a Dunn Lumber they usually end up stacking mountains of pallets and are happy to have someone take them (used to work at the Greenlake location and once one dude found out that the pallets we had were free he'd come by once a month to clean us out of the 40+ pallets we had).
@@jacobcochrane only thing worth noting is the red pallets aren't free because they're heavy duty and made to be reused by the concrete distributor, besides that though, they're free as a bird. Once found one made out of mahogany and one out of walnut. Was pretty stoked.
Pretty cool! Feel like you might want some sort of siding to keep the insulation from molding or catching a spark. I don't think an awning will be enough to protect it from moisture. Maybe painter's plastic underneath some wood panels? Also, I know port angeles isn't exactly wildfire country, but the cardboard being exposed seems kind of like tempting fate with a bit of a fire hazard
Yeah, it’s not ideal but it’s readily available and free. I was initially going to leave it uninsulated but I have dreams of using it to record music so I wanted to do something atleast. I guess we’ll find out together ;)
This is a great format! I love just watching/listening to you building but if you get the chance to, text on the screen explaining why you’re doing certain things (such as the wiring) would be super helpful and educational for those of us just learning from Dad 😂
Great thought! I might release the same or similar video format at the end with a voice over so people who want a more educational experience can have that?
@@jacobcochraneit could be helpful to do a voice over but some people like the “Working on the House ASMR” to fall asleep to. So, there are a lot of ways that you could run with this idea. Ultimately choose what works the best for you. I feel like just putting a script over the vod would be the easiest but I’m also not an editor… soooo… do what works best for you. An example of what I’m talking about in my original comment would be to go look at Korean camping videos. They set up camp and do all of these things but it’s only ASMR/background music, and just the sounds alone are worth it. Then if your audience is awake and interested in learning thing then they can choose to read what is going on. I’m personally not a person who likes ASMR in the conventional food or makeup genre but I love ASMR that you can learn from and/or fall asleep to. Just an idea and maybe this helps.
@@jacobcochraneit comes down to whether you want to take the time to do an educational voice over for those who are just listening to the vod or an educational script for those watching it. You put the work in at the end of the day so it’s whatever scratches the itch in your brain but also brings in those $$$
I love the content and can’t wait for part 2. Did you plan out how many pallets for the cabin? Or did you just save them up over X months and assume you have enough?
No worries! I did it that way because I wanted it to be pinned between two pieces of wood, rather than exposed on the very bottom where critters could potentially pull it loose over time. Also it just seemed easier to install this way
Howdy! I don’t know if you’ll see this but if you do I wanted to ask why the bottom is elevated and also what is the mesh for? And why is there one layer and then the metal mesh and then the layer with the insulation? Thanks in advance! I’m a new builder and am very curious

Excellent editing! Heres a comment to boost the algorithm hopefully
Appreciate it! Would love to get monetized soon on UA-cam so I can have more project money lol
It worked popped up in my algorithm thank you.
It worked! Saw this vid today!
Same here

Just goes to show that determination, hard work, planning, and a little bit of ingenuity can go a long way! I want to see the rest of this!
Amen. And thank you. More coming soon :)
@@jacobcochranehave you finished this & posted it
Feels like I’m catching something before it blows up this is awesome dude
Appreciate it! Only time will tell :)
Awesome stuff man, and smooth edits to boot. Keep on getting after it. I cant wait to see the completed build!
Thanks a ton!
Dude, I like what your doing. I'm in the next county over. I've got a bunch of metal roofing if you want. 3'x12' sheets if you're interested.
No way!! I’ve been wanting metal but was probably going to do something else cause of price. How much would you want for them?

This kind of interaction is what the internet was supposed to be for

Hooked for part 2!
Using the table saw to cut the cardboard was so clever!
Thank you! I was pretty proud of that hack haha
I came from tiktok because I want to watch from the very beginning!
Heyyy nice thanks for migrating!!
Like what your doing dude built my shed out of pallets just finished it a week ago looks OK wants cladding 👍 👍 👍👍👍👍
Oh hell yeah nice 🫡
Been following you on your other socials for a bit now. Wanted to come show support here and watch the full vids. Didnt skip ads either lol gotta support a fellow WA creator 🫂💙
I'll be following along watching the progress !
Cool! Welcome!
Magnificent stuff man!! The build and the video! Really meditative to watch you work. Like everyone else, looking forward to Part 2. Step by step, day by day.
Thanks James!!!! Miss you guys! ♥️
Very helpful to watch. Building a pallet house with my son.
That’s some real freakin ingenuity
Great project build
I’d heat used motor oil and coat all foundation wood
Good thought! I might try on the next one
Well done! Love the insulation idea.
Thank you :)
So relaxing.
Super dope video. I would like a voice over to explain each step and maybe add some of your comments. I look forward to watching more of your content. Your the man.
Good to know! Maybe I’ll release another version with a voice over for other people interested in the thought process?
Or go the route of primitive survival does and add your own subtitles instead of a voice over
This is wild, can’t wait to see more progress!
Thank you! More coming soon :)
Love your content ! Keep up the good work and I hope the cabine you built will be filled with good memories and good times!
7:50 good call going bark side up with those boards
That is looking magnificent 😲🙌🏽
That’s amazing work you’re doing. Your hardwork and talent will pay off for you. And is very inspiring to see. I wanna purchase some land one day and build on it someday.
Same here!! For now just building on rental property like the rest of us poors lol. Thank you so much!
Nice one. Collecting pallets now.
Hell yeah get it
very cool use of resources.
Appreciate it 🙏🏻
Dude, great video. Definitely took time and skill in both the building and editing. Keep it up!
big fan of this pal all the way from New Zealand!
Love this! Can’t wait to see the finished product! Nice work so far. That base looks sturdy.
Looking forward to part 2
I don't know where in Washington you live but if you live near a Dunn Lumber they usually end up stacking mountains of pallets and are happy to have someone take them (used to work at the Greenlake location and once one dude found out that the pallets we had were free he'd come by once a month to clean us out of the 40+ pallets we had).
Oh sickkkk good to know! I used to play on the big gravel pits outside their Fremont store as a teenage lol
@@jacobcochrane only thing worth noting is the red pallets aren't free because they're heavy duty and made to be reused by the concrete distributor, besides that though, they're free as a bird. Once found one made out of mahogany and one out of walnut. Was pretty stoked.
Hell yeah brother keep it up
Will do
I would also use that chicken wire to cover the bottom to prevent critters from getting under there. And then add some gravel over the top of it.
Good thought! That’s kind of what I was imagining, using it to mostly keep them out of the insulation layer
Pretty cool! Feel like you might want some sort of siding to keep the insulation from molding or catching a spark. I don't think an awning will be enough to protect it from moisture. Maybe painter's plastic underneath some wood panels? Also, I know port angeles isn't exactly wildfire country, but the cardboard being exposed seems kind of like tempting fate with a bit of a fire hazard
Thank you! Yes totally I’m planning to do house wrap for moisture protection and pallet siding over the top. We’ll see how it works 🤷🏼
Good work bro
this is really special and cool
This is sick 👏👏👏👏
Thank you!
Dude what you do is actually dope😂
Just found your channel and I love it! Thanks for making videos for us!!
Looking forward to seeing more.
Thank you! More coming soon :)
I’m thinking about doing some sort of cabin for a home studio and this was timed perfectly
Cool! This is gonna be a music studio for me :)
This is SO COOL! can’t wait for part 2 :)
Cant wait for part 2, love the vid, keep up the good work!
Thank you! It’s coming soon :)
This looks amazing 🤩 can’t wait for pt 2!
Great start
Thank you!
Epic in excited for more
Really dig the cheap vibe for materials
Honestly feel like that’s my only real specialty lol
Saw you on TT first, then Reddit, now here.
Nice! Glad you found me :)
Need that part 2
Wish i could build one near you, and come over and say, "Okay what do I do next?" Copy every step......❤
Haha that would make for a great video. “Beginner copies expert steps for step, see how each turns out” :)
This is awesome dude
Appreciate it!
Awesome stuff dude
Thank you!
Love your videos
looking good! probably could have found a different alternative to insulation other comments were saying the cardboard was gonna mold, will see though
Yeah, it’s not ideal but it’s readily available and free. I was initially going to leave it uninsulated but I have dreams of using it to record music so I wanted to do something atleast. I guess we’ll find out together ;)
Juste the kind of video i was searshing for
I’m ngl I need part 2 NOWWW!!!
This is so cool
Thank you!
Cool, I like it
Thanks!
Awesome shit man.
Much appreciated
Found you on IG love the videos dude !!
Awesome! Thank you!
If you have a large printing co. nearby, they would have some heavy-duty pallets.
I am taking notes
I'm literally dying for part 2
So soon I promise
Carpenters are built different
💪🏻 🫡
Damn good idea 👍
Thank you!
Wow I love this delicious cabin, would love to toast some marshmallows nearby! ! What a wonderful world to live near.
Wow thanks cam sheesh if only we lived closer together or even worked together and could have a fire at my place sometime, but alas
Good stuff
Appreciate it :)
Subscribed!
Think it’s just a matter of time man. Keep at it!
Thanks man! One day at a time 💪🏻
Love it
Ty!
my weakness is that I feel like I could easily do this
Sounds like a fkn strength to me lol

Epic
Need pt 2
I love the content and can’t wait for part 2. Did you plan out how many pallets for the cabin? Or did you just save them up over X months and assume you have enough?
Thank you! It’s coming! I didn’t really plan it out, just started gathering and stacking. Currently I think I’ve taken apart about 40 or so?
Commenting to get the boy algorithmically paid
Ayeeee let’s goooo :)
Over here upset I can’t do this alone while simultaneously never leaving my house or meeting people who I could help 😂
Hey don’t be afraid to try! Maybe start with something smaller scale to build your confidence :)
How on earth did I not know about that tool you’re using to get the old nails out until just now?!
At the 3:37 mark. New PR for me in a video with no dialogue or narration
Heyyyyy cool! That’s good to know :)
I link the mesh idea. Are you going to treat the cardboard to keep insects away?
Thanks! Mesh was mostly to deter rats and mice from slipping through the osb. No cardboard treatment this time. We’ll see if that’s a mistake or not…
These short videos are very palatable
Glad you like them!
I’ve followed you on fb and it lead me here man. Really good job fuck the haters. Rv liver too.
Glad you’re here dude! Thanks for checking it out!
Good stuff man. Are you following a blueprint?
Thank you! And no not really, mostly just visualizing it in my head and going from there, but I did draw up the wall framing real quick.
Nice found on the sit tok much better vids over here
Hell yeah glad you made it!
Can't wait to watch the rest of the build
Hell yeah! Trying to get it all done by fall so more coming soon :)
wild!
Lets goooooooooo
Question:
With the foundation on dirt, how will you protect against termites?
Why the mesh at the bottom? Keep critters out?
Yessir. Keep rats out of the cardboard, which would be their dream home I’m sure. So far it’s working great!
I know it's only been 5 days but........PART 2!!!!!
Hahaha maybe once this is my actual job I can get stuff done more quickly! For now we all must be patient… sadly
WHAT IS THE TOOL ATTACHMENT YOU USE TO BLOW THE NAILS OUT AND WHERE CAN I GET ONE?
Pneumatic nail puncher! Link in my bio to the one I use 👍🏻
I have a question for you, why did you set up the chicken wire in the center layer? Not criticizing, I just have never done anything like this.
No worries! I did it that way because I wanted it to be pinned between two pieces of wood, rather than exposed on the very bottom where critters could potentially pull it loose over time. Also it just seemed easier to install this way
@@jacobcochrane awesome that makes total sense thank you for your answer!
Are you worried about the cardboard getting wet and moldy? Ive never seen cardboard used as insulation like that.
Cool Jacob. Looking forward to part 2😊
Coming soon! And thank you :)
Howdy! I don’t know if you’ll see this but if you do I wanted to ask why the bottom is elevated and also what is the mesh for? And why is there one layer and then the metal mesh and then the layer with the insulation? Thanks in advance! I’m a new builder and am very curious
You remind me of my father. Rest in peace.
Aww. Rip 🙏🏻
What is the blue tool you used to pull the boards off the pallets in the beginning of the video?
You're gonna be huge one day. Keep it up brother.
Appreciate that, thanks man :)
