- The log cabin is starting to take shape. I got the gables done, purlins on, and ridge beam installed. Next video I will carve out the door and windows and get a roof on it.
I’m an old man now but I used to do things such as this throughout my life and lament that I’m no longer able to do these things. The smell of the woods. The wood submitting to your will. The progress. And the earned nights rest due to a days honest and rewarding labors. Thank you sir for allowing me to participate in your project. Thank you. Thank you.
Come along anytime! I’m glad you enjoyed the process.
In the same boat TR. I am a young 40 year old but hard work and the military got me MS and an uncertain future. I have land though and the will to hopefully do this. This is a great series! Thank you!
@@ZakJJ1 Keep at it brother, you’ll get there

For me, the ideas in ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxAfqpMLyFn37qcqUl0FAzqkkycQeXqrhP Plans were a starting point for building different sheds . Ryan gives ideas that allow an individual to draw nicest conclusions into the design and building of his or her own shed.
This folks, is how you positively use youth energy!
The ultimate life for a dog. Hanging out with his/her owner, outdoors, everyday.
Kyle, I am so glad I got to know you so many years ago. Always knew you were someone special . Love the videos and your work ethic. My wife and myself really are amazed with you ..and skeeter..and Cierra.
Curt it is great to hear from you! I always wonder what you are up to. I don’t have Facebook anymore so I’m not sure how to get ahold of you, but I would love to get together next time I’m in town.
@@KYLESCABIN I would so enjoy a good visit Kyle, its been too long! Really love your videos
like everyone else on here. Pretty sure I've watched them all. And still want more😊😊, so yup next time your in town we'll have to get together...
One of the things that I think is really cool, is that log cabin building in this way, you have a built-in ladder to help you hoist your heavy logs up …..unlike traditional milled lumber.
You're doing am amazing job by yourself! No coaching. No helpers. No machines. Just your own able bodied self! Very inspiring! I look forward to seeing your construction process. Be safe and have a great day!
Kyle and Cierra, the lil cabin looks mighty fine. Nothing's cattywampus. I can see cabin building offers for you Kyle, in the future. Well done.👍
Not long before the snow begins to fly.⛄☃️❄🏂🌨
just discovered your channel. with young men like you i can see we are in good hands.
I am amazed at how much you get done by yourself. Looking great!
Dude, you are a certified badass. I'm a big guy but I'd be terrified to shake your hand. Driving 10" spikes with a framing hammer, even into poplar logs, is not for the faint of heart...
You are the only guy I seen that could work like I could when I was 27 years old and I was a warrior at work I could work 16-18 hrs a day 40 years and when I turned 55 everything started falling apart starting with my back I had my retirement saved so I retired from work and I watch UA-cam videos and your the only guy that could work like me when I was twenty something.
Kyle you are a great cabin builder
Love watching you as you work and explain process
Skeeter is a great supervisor
Take care and waiting to see finished cabin soon
Small logs. Nice and straight, easy for one person to do. I wanna try it eventually, get a few acres up north. Bang up job dude, keep it comin 😎👍🏻
Minnesota looks like it’s getting colder! All of the leaves are almost down. The leaves in Indiana are just starting to turn. The cabin looks great!
Was 34F this morning! Had to fire up the wood stove last night. Winter will be here fast
I’m an hour north of Hibbing at Lake Vermilion which is probably fairly close to Kyle. We haven’t even had a frost yet and this lake is still 57°F. Pretty weird for October.
@@noyopacific I'm in northern Minnesota, too. I've been looking back at my home state of Ohio. 20 degrees cooler here, but still no frost!
Yeah it’s been a pretty weird fall. Historically it’s always been a really cold, snowy winter after a dry summer. We will find out.
@@noyopacific im right on vermillion
You are an extraordinary young man. God love you! Thank you for your example!!
Awesome video you definitely know how to work it's good to see young people doing that today
That was fast Kyle good job wow
When you said carve out that snaggletooth nail I LOL.
Very impressive! I love watching your videos! Seeing Skeeter helping you by “cutting down a tree” that was priceless!
Hardest working man on UA-cam!! Looks great!!
Agree , He is one of the hardest working guys I've seen on UA-cam. , Kyle works hard and efficient. Not sure if its appropriate , but I will mention Kris Harbour Natural Building UA-cam. From England and he is working on a earth bag work shop, Same as Kyle works hard and efficient.
That's a lot of hard work by yourself I'm a retired carpenter and I have framed quite a few room additions and homes and used to do things when I was young I watch you pick up those 18 foot logs and my back is hurting you take care looks like you have it whipped now looking forward to seeing more.good luck.
Love it brother!! I can’t get enough of ur videos! I’m looking for country land to do my little home stead and I might attempt a cabin also! I make music and gardening videos myself.. so much fun!Please Don’t get wood chips or sparks flying in ur eyes! Safety Glasses!
Thanks for the how to videos Kyle! I like your style, its not rocket science, and you show whats important to get it done!
Beautiful.... Kyle you are a beast. Hard working young man, you deserve the freedom you have obtained.
I love the way you have set up your building of the cabin, one right after the other, itis so hard to be watching something and have someone come in to visit and I lose you ad then it takes a day or two to find you again, so appreciate that part! Boy do you have a little yard work coming summertime! Wish I was there to help you clean up, love that part about yard work! Wow, just found the next one with the second floor on!
That’s small enough for the small guide gear tent stoves to heat. Very nice. I’m leaving for my property on Monday. Hopefully I can throw a cabin together quickly like you. Or I’ll be camping in my tent for winter. Lol I might get a bigger propane tank for my mr buddy heater just in case
You should try a cheap Chinese diesel heater,best thing I have bought for years,plenty of vids on UA-cam to view
Nicely Done. I admire your work ethic. 🇨🇦
I love a purist & a purist lifestyle! Great talent!
Outstanding Bro !! I knew that it wasn't going to take you long and you'll be on the roof. You'll be water tight in no time.. Peace 👍👍💪💪💪💪💪✌✌
I am so envious in every video. You present everything in terms. Shlubs like me can understand.
I would make a blacksmith shop in one as well.
some of other you tubers take a year to complete what you just did in 15 minutes dude you are awesome!!! I get sick from watching them go like awww it is tooo HOT it is too cold tooo windy WTF man keep it real! love your videos
As my grandpa used to say, it’s not going to get done just staring at it.
Nicely said
Mark Bowe, Johnnie Jet and Sherman would be proud of you. (Barnwood Builders.)
My favorite videos on UA-cam. I wish you would make one every day. You are living the dream. Would gladly trade this rat race.
Thank you. This part is a little tedious but now I’ll be getting videos out more quickly
Thank you for the explanation in the building process.
When I first came across your videos as you built the log cabin in the woods I was only mildly impressed by it all. NOW many many months later I have grown incredibly impressed by your skills, your craftsmanship, and your knowledge. A contemporary Dick Proenneke.
Very nice work my friend. Im going to use this method now that ive seen your video thankyou..
Wow great job
Looking good and I admire your tenacity!
You are probably aware of this product TimberLOK lag screws but in case you aren't these are easier to use than nails for logs. They hold better and are easier to install with a battery powered hammer drill.
Former General Contractor.
I'm loving that lumber yard of yours, your workshop/man cave will be way cool!
This series has given me the confidence to give this a try.
Looking like a nice build
U should see it. Dude is absolutely amazing. Best carpenter I ever met fair price. He could chop a tree down with finger nail trimmers. Give him enough time. Stairs, never seen anything like it in my life and the banister hand rail it's all from wood on the property, looks natural n stuff.
KYLE WELL DONE ENJOYING YOUR WORK NO COOKING JUST LOG WORK
And no worthless cooking . Love these video
You are not only skillful, you are damn strong too! 😮
Love the cabin.Beautiful
Kyle, I hope you're able to live to be at least 100 years old...the world needs you around at least that long for education and inspiration. Take care. God bless.
I am a tall guy and I would have gone about 3 feet higher. Nice to see a simple build with good ideas and techniques.
Skeeter is looking particularly darling! You are a very skilled and courageous young man. 👍😎🇨🇦🐾🌲🔥🍂🍁
Love watching your shows and don’t even know you or Cierra but I’m very proud of both of you as a young couple and your accomplishments! Stay safe and kiss Skitter for me! 🤗
Good looking cabin. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Amazing how you just look at the cabin and then Go for it Nice work 👍
Loved; F-Troop as a kid. Now I gotta build me a Cabin/Shanty.
And of course@ 65years almost too late.
Another great video. Yes, it is taking shape and tells me but and pass is a good alternative.
Your channel and My Self Reliance are my favourite channels to watch, it’s so good to see buildings built from scratch the old fashioned way 😻
It's a really nice looking cabin it is very beautiful you are doing a really good job
Superb workmanship Kyle.
Looking great brother
Nice video 👍 From Cadillac Michigan
Best and simplest cabin I've seen on UA-cam well done thanks for the vid
Kittywampus??? Great video 👍👍 Kyle. Cabin looking good.
Thank you for sharing your story, we so enjoyed and will continue to watch. 🌸
I was gone for a while. Im back to watch one of my favourite channels and catching up from where i left off. Kyle you never disappoint. My UA-cam name has changed Im one of your early subscribers. I told you id build a shed in my garden following your footprints. I got sick as soon as im better I'll build it. Stay blessed my young lad. Always impressed with your fitness and hard work. Thank you for sharing.❤🙏
Enjoying the build,(all of them) but really interested in seeing how the floor goes in after you already built the walls. Good stuff
Me too! Always something I wonder about
The floor is built with wood just like the rest of the cabin. What is the big mystery?
The floor will be nailed to the inside of the walls. So as long as the walls stand the floor will.
Love your builds man im building my first cabin in a few weeks just spent a year off grid in a run down shack Care taking etc anyway love it your awesome
Great work Kyle. 👏 Good for you building this cabin from your surroundings all by yourself. Congrats.
It's always amazing watching you build. You have it down to a science. I always get nervous when you are taking the bark off the logs and the blade is coming toward you. You get so much done all by yourself and me not being able to walk, can't even find someone to build me shelves. Skeeter is a terrific dog, he always makes me smile. Take care. Tell Cierra hello, haven't seen her for awhile. --TGG
Hello. Have a safe blessed night! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Looking great so far
You make it look so easy. Hard work. Misérables weather. Thanks for sharing.
Appreciate the simplicity. Great work
Oh boy it’s looking real good now I enjoy watching you
Thanks for a great video. Great entertainment for down here in FL on a Saturday night.
Watching all of em ..well done
Great job, Kyle ❤
Awesome!! ❤️from Tennessee & this Ole Granty!!
Love it. And since I'm not doing the work ,it's easy too. God bless stay safe..🇺🇸🌹❤️
You are a remarkable young man. Well done Kyle.
Fastest one-man cabin build video I’ve seen. Some take months and years, but they have their own merit in going the slow and craftsman route, but I’m so impressed on the speed on this built. If folks back in the days can afford nails, I’m sure they’ll do the same way. Sometimes faster is necessary.
Wow amazing. Lmao about peeling logs being 90% of building the cabin. Looks like being strong matters a lot more lol. Really enjoy watching these. Can’t wait for the next video. Best part is the Slinger lol. What a handsome pup.
Must be an awesome feeling to build cabins.. looks beautiful. Good job dude !
Very cool my friend , thank you i enjoyed the build
Great job Kyle a lot of hard work involved I know its going to turn out awesome thanks for taking us along with your journey
I think I can do this because u make it look easy and explain well thank u young man
Took me 60 days!
Thx KYLE!
You do great work.
This is the second video I have watched you and you are a workhorse. Wish there was that much ingenuity in our young people today. Amazing work. Enjoyed watching. Thanks very much. I guarantee you aren’t a vegan working like that.😂 I probably would have fell and broke my neck dragging those logs through the underbrush.
I’m impressed! I don’t know how it compares to a saddle notch corners for durability but it is going up very quickly and it sure looks like a log cabin to me. Thanks for the video Kyle.
Saddle notch is definitely stronger and I think looks better overall. Butt and pass is still strong though and goes a lot faster.
@@KYLESCABIN I think its brilliant. These logs are manageable. My father nearly died building the log house I grew up in lol. I think if you were to side this and sit it on piers it would last a lifetime. What I like about logs is the way they hold heat in the winter. I think if this had some sort of wind barrier outside it would be pretty efficient
I've been watching these videos so intently, as if I'm ever going to do this.
You're doing a great job Kyle. It looks great ! One man and his best friend( skeeter ) , getting er done ! 🇺🇸
Dude you are so good to your animals! Thanks for being a beautiful human!
Such a pretty wood.
Beauty. You make it look easy
Nice work
Those are nice looking logs
I hate kitty wampus roof pitches
That looks mighty fine...
Learn a lot just by watching......
Awesome job.love you Skeeter.💜💕
Very impressive 👍👍
👌 Endurance💪❤👍 🎥 Looks Awesome. FYI my compliments on your Lumberjack SKEETER🐾🐾😉😂
Kyle, I just watched the series and thought that you might consider a log end floor. Level the inside of the cabin and put down your barrier of choice. Then, cut log ends to 4 inches and placed on the floor until the area is covered. Like hockey pucks. Then, fill spaces with sand or dirt. If it shifts a little, it will not affect the cabin.
