⭐️ About this Episode:
Now it’s time to RAISE THE ROOF a Shed Style Roof on the Off Grid Cabin! We 1st had to get a 20’ Cedar log upstairs in the loft which was a challenge. Then we added the rafters and sheathing. Now our off grid cabin is in the dry and out of the weather!

That Jerry is worth his weight in gold! Very impressed with his knowledge and skill!
He sure is!! Thanks for watching
Having Jerry is a blessing for sure. I go by Jerry as well.
Ken Raney
That has NOT been my experience...
Not to mention that stellar balance.
Michael when you were on those 2 x 4s with the ladder and gunning - well I just kept thinking its going to be okay because he is showing the video right. I don't think that was OSHA approved! LOL! That house is going to be stunning, the creek, the trees, the setting! I am in love! Hope to stay there one day! Congratulations! My husband was a carpenter just like Jerry. There was nothing he couldn't do. I love watching Jerry and ya'll building. Brings back wonderful memories of my late husband!😊
Well, I’m so glad your enjoying the videos!! Thank you and yes I was nervous on that ladder 😬!!
I was nervous watching that also
You're building the cabin on an absolutely beautiful spot on the property! So interesting to see it going up. Jerry is great at what he does but your Dad helping makes it even more special.
Agreed! Thank you 😊
Michael, your father and Jerry work so hard for older gentlemen. God bless them.
Thank you 😊
Yeah man I am a carpenter of over 30 years and I can tell you that's the best way to do Outriggers hands down. I am try to go to Rafters over but one will work especially with the size of those Rafters it's just fine no problem you're going to be a great looking building that's for sure. Guys stay safe and stay well and as always God bless
Thank you 😊
I love to share your excitement!! Beautiful setting for a beautiful little house!! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you 😊
It looks wonderful! These are the best times of your life! Enjoy your family. God bless you and I hope you make many beautiful memories with your family!
Agreed!! Thank you 😊
Thanks for taking us along on your build journey. Your family will never know the pride you will have inside from building the family cabin by hand. Your builder Jerry is something else. I am just a city boy, but I know the skill and talent he has to wheeled that chainsaw and sculpt those cedar logs to join to the wall
Framing and receive the rafters. Well done Jerry. God bless you and your family.
Yes Jerry is the best carpenter I know! So glad we have him! Thanks 😊
If you're still on the fence about what to do in the loft. You should look up Ana White on UA-cam. Last year she made a closet along the short wall of her daughter's attic bedroom that would be a great storage solution for your family if you're interested. Hope this helps 😊
Thanks for the tip!
Looking good. As a Master Builder myself, I am headed to Northern Wisconsin this Spring of 2023 to Build a 3 Story Garage/Living Space. I figure we might as well go big if we are building!! It will be a partial Seasonal Rental also. I will video and document that one for the world to see. It helps to have someone that knows what they are doing, doesn't it?? Have FUN!!
😂
So much GOOD family interaction I almost forgot I was here to see how you did your shed roof...nice little family y'all are
I LOVE Cedar!! Love the smell, love the color of the wood, love that it makes me think of home in the foothills of Arkansas. Growing up we always went out in the woods around our house and cut a cedar tree for our Christmas tree! So those smells always bring back awesome memories of simpler happy times. 🏡♥️🌲The cabin is going to be awesome! So happy for you guys! 🙏🏻
Yes we love it too! And we cut a cedar for Christmas too! Thank you 😊
My childhood home in the early 80s had cedar siding. When I smell cedar today I literally get transported back in time almost 40 yrs.
Coming along great Michael and I love how excited you are about it 👍👍. God bless y’all ✌️
Thank you 😊
I agree. It is beautiful.
Yes Jerry what a great person. Amen. Looking good.
Thanks 😊
Awesome! Looks GREAT!!!
Thanks 😊
Awesome and stay safe
Thank you 😊
Good!! I love watching you building this tiny home of yours. It is so exciting!! Micheal I was saying to myself....could you please be careful on that ladder!! It was a little scary to watch. You are doing a beautiful job. Jerry is a amazing!! Wish he lived near by! Keep up the good work....careful on the ladder!
.
Thank you 😊
Enjoy your home, sweat equity is always the best.
Agreed 😉!! Thanks
The roof style is good it's typhoon resistant.. the wind will just slide. Most of our roof in my country is like that for middle class family and needy people.
I would love to come and stay someday!
We hope you do! 😊
Me too😎
Wow you are so brave Michael that ladder was wonky!! It looks amazing and is going up so fast you guys are working so hard. Your 'hope' sounds perfect to me xx
Thank you 😊
All I can say is WOW 🙂🙂🙂🤩
Thanks 😊
Neat designed cabin can't to wait to see it until it's done.
Your whole family makes me smile. Just found your channel - can’t wait to watch the progress.
Thank you 😊
I'm loving it! Can't wait to see the final project! Hopefully I can rent it for a weekend😎
Thank you 😊
Love the work y’all are doing! You can hear the pride in your voice! God bless✝️
Last name's Loftis also. Getting ready to build a house like yours. We're in NC.
Looks amazing! You all have been working so hard. Kudos to your Dad! I love all the cedar you are able to use, such a bonus. I have never seen the inside of a cedar tree. So gorgeous and I bet it smells great. Count your blessings! Be safe and take care 🙏
Yes it does smell great! Thanks 😊
Job well done... it looks like a great place to enjoy when your done
Thank you 😊
Yep. We did the same thing! Shed roof over 28x32. Looks like your house.
Awesome! I love this style!
Looking good we have started our tiny house
Thanks!! And that’s awesome! It’s a fun process!
I almost covered my face when you climbed that ladder resting on those boards! I wonder what Laine would have thought about that... haha. I really enjoy watching your videos and appreciate your openness and God centered life. Thanks for being an inspiration and grounding voice in this pandemic. A fun family to watch.
Thank you so much 😊
Hey that is neat how you used that old log for the beam. Looks like a fun build.🙂
Great video. Thanks for sharing. One tip please wear safety glasses for your kids sake and good lesson for your kids.
Coming along nice. If it's going to he an "off grid" weekend, I hope there's going to be a jacuzzi!!??...lol
Eventually we will have something like a hot tub but it will be wood fired and very rustic
It does look like it belongs there! Love it!
Thanks 😊
Good job,God bless!
Howdy Micheal - Wow! You guys are making good progress. Looks great. God bless y’all
Thank you sir!! I need to get caught up on your build! Hope it’s going well!
It’s looking Great,Beautiful setting for sure !!
Thanks 😊
It looks amazing. Great job
Jerry is absolutely awesome 🙏🏾
Hermosa les está quedando me encanta el lugar.❤❤❤
A little sketchy on the boards. I've been there building my home! I have 4 screws in my ankle that I was a little to sketchy! Nice job!
I would close the big opening and have the head space and open the short side that way your not losing the head space that can be used
Love seeing the progress on this place! Going to be beautiful! Grady.... you had me in the edge if my seat walking along the edges! Brought back memories of my boys. I was always pulling them back from edges of everything lol. They are now 33 and 31 and are perfectly safe and healthy 😂
Thank you and yes why do kids do that 😉
Love the way the kids are allowed to be “free” ... no cotton wool! Live free!!
Thanks 😊
I've enjoyed ur video. I'm working on my land. And u have given me some amazing ideals to think about.
Thanks
Frickin awesome!
Really nice!!!
Thanks 😊
Really looking great
Thanks 😊
The ladder on the 2x6s was in my OSHA 10 training if I remember correctly 🤣🤣🤣
😆
Looking great.
Thanks 😊
You are learning so much...but you on those ladders was super scary and dangerous...you needed to be singing "Jesus, hold the ladder"..
😆👍 thanks
These are great videos. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
Looks really nice. I'm excited for y'all!
Thanks 😊
Looking Good!
Thanks 😊
I would love to have a cabin like this. I enjoy watching all building projects. Keep up the good work.
Thank you 😊
Let me know when we can Boondock there 😉 looks good.
Thanks 😊
New Subscriber, like it, perfect set up, low maintenance. I know that plywood decking is made to take water on it but I would at least lay down some tar paper, just a thought. Great job guys‼️👍👍. Vinny 🇺🇸

Love how this tiny cabin is turning out! How do we get on the list to rent it, haha? Thanks for subscribing to us. Can’t wait to meet you guys. 💙
You guys are putting out great content!! Happy to subscribe!! We hope to have the cabin on Airbnb this month!
@@LoftisPartyofSix Thank you! As a fellow Airbnber (we have a condo on Maui we rent out), make sure you take awesome pictures and put as many pics up as possible. The pictures sell the place more than anything else.
The amount of anxiety I had when he had the ladder on those boards while using the nail gun omg
Looks good guys ✌🏼
Thanks 😊
Is this build making your hair grey? /jkg Who will manage/clean your cabin while you are on the road? Another great video. Thanks for sharing.
😆 no RV Living was the cause of all that gray hair 👨🦳 😉!! We plan on hiring a cleaner to maintain the property while we travel. Thank you 😊
Great job guys. Just found your chann. I will follow you. Stay positive
Thanks 😊
Awesome!!
Thanks 😊
The cabin is looking great! Thanks for sharing the process! You guys stay safe!
Thank you 😊
how can they "stay safe" when doing so many unsafe acts?
looks really nice.can you please share the blue prints ,,or dimentions .. im thinking on building a cabin 2. thankyou
This is amazing....
Thanks 😊
Hey they that looks great.whats the chances of getting a set of plans. Thanks Dan
You guys and gals are doing a great job! It looks so peaceful out there! Put me on your reservation list! ❤️ Is it near Tennessee? I have family in Tennessee.
It’s in southern Missouri. Thanks
I will attempt all this except alone. I got a cabin build coming soon except I want it 8 to 10 feet above ground.
im starting my own now, Ocean side tiny house
@@jeromedeleonph171 ocean side, that's awesome. Mine will look like it's in the middle of a desert.
Jorge Serna I live in the Philippines, the ocean is the best I can think off. I hope we have some other places like desert, that would be cool.
@@jeromedeleonph171 I also got 10 250 watt solar panels to provide some electricity when I get the cabin going. It gets very hot where I live and will need air conditioning in the summer. I have 8 acres but my few trees are very small. It's a project that will soon turn into reality.
@@cutweldngrind That is so cool, Happy for you Bruh!
This is my first video of yours to watch. The place is beautiful! I’m planning on building a cabin-house for my wife and myself “the good Lord Jesus willing” her and I love cabins. My wife’s Uncle has one up in Tennessee in the smokies we love it up there! What part of The country is this? 👍❤️. God Bless You all!
PS Jerry is fabulous if he doesn’t mind how many years Young is he?😊
Thank you and we are in southern Missouri. I think Jerry is 62
Safety is not known to this crew !
We have to get you a new hat now! 😜
Definitely 😉
Great build. Can you tell me the exterior dimensions, or square footage on the main floor? Thanks!
20x24
At 8:00 I had to say a prayer for ya. No way in hell I would've climbed that ladder on those boards. OSHA would not approve. lol
😆👍
Beautiful chainsaw work.
Looking very sharp. I am wondering when you actually did the build of the Tiny House because the trees should be in leaves already this time of the year. Was the build in late Feb early March?
Yes we started mid February and this video was probably mid March. Thanks
Isn't that cedar beam too heavy for that stick build? You could have used two post from the same style to support on each end from the ground up? Again maybe I am wrong. Let me know please
Know it’s not too heavy since we reinforced the walls to support it.
How do i find all episodes associated with this particular build start to finish?
It’s in our playlist
How did you insulate the roof?
Great looking place! Did you guys design the building, or can you point to architecture plans? Looking to build something similar. Thanks!
We designed it ourselves. I don’t have any blueprints. It’s 20x24 with an 8x8 add on. Roof is 3x12. Hope that helps
What was the length of the rafters for this? I'm liking the shed style I have a 28ft wide span which would need to be a mono truss ijoist or rafter style. We have a 30snow load in michigan where I am. I like the idea of using 28ft long 2x12s if I can meet code with my calculations I can at smaller on center 12 or 16.
I believe 12'.. its 24 ft in length and we had the cedar post in the center as support.
How do you Iike using that Zip system? I see you have it red and green. I love the idea of sealed envelope that it offers. What's your experience with it thus far?
@@meUtragic Hubers zip is amazing, I have it on my build as well, with prices for lumber being what they were it was a no-brainer. On my build I used zip as the sheathing then used double sided attic foil wrapped around the entire building w the proper tape, after that I used furring strips then added my siding. By using the "reflectix" in addition to the furring strips it gave me a proper air gap for a radiant barrier. This is blocking 99% of radiant heat and emissivity from sipping into the building. Fun fact, the radiant foil they have out on the market is an all in one that is a radiant barrier (if used properly) as well as a vapor barrier that is permeable. I recently started to replace my front tall walls cedar lap siding w LP smart sides panels like I have on the other 3 sides. The zip system was in the EXACT same condition as the day I installed it a year and half ago, that's despite my horrible job of siding it as an impatient noob. My build is the same design just different dimensions, mine is a 16x20 Mono pitch front wall is 13' 6" back wall is 9' with a 20ft x 8ft lean to add on in the back of it. I am going to soon be installing a 20ft x 6ft lean to on the front that will be a screened in porch and my solar panels will be on the roof of it. Can't say enough good things about Hubers products, I am slightly biased as my step mother worked for them for almost 20 years starting w them as a small start up. They spend alot of money and time researching, developing but they hire contractors who work in the field to give them insight and help design new products. Great company, they treat their employees really well and offer great benefits to their team, we can use more companies that treat their people that way but also care about what products they're putting on the markets.
Mike the gentleman in the gray t shirt is he your dad ? Smart idea not making a flat roof . Are you going to put in a wood burning fire place made out of stone from the property ?Will the metal roof be installed for you ? Mike does your parents house have a metal roof ? May I ask where does Lanes parents live ?
Yep that’s my dad! We are doing a gas fireplace. Thanks for watching
@@LoftisPartyofSix Thank You for your reply
3:16, 3:49 and 13:41 dangerous and unsafe... Prevention is better than regrets :o)
how tall is front and back wall if you dont mind
What is the size of this cabin please and where can get prints I like to build one like that
It’s 20x24 with 8x8 add on for storage/battery room. 3/12 pitch roof
@@LoftisPartyofSix thank you
i rty to build a 20x40 structure shall i go with the same roof pitch i love what you did and i am looking maybe to achieve same concept have you drawn any plans for it
I just saw a 5th wheel and truck for sale? Are they still available ? What is the truck’s mileage?
No we sold it all last year
