- The first big snow storm of the season is headed our way which means we need to finish working outdoors on the metal components of our project before we get slammed.

We are a couple who are building our own home from the ground up in the mountains of West Virginia. After living near the city our entire lives we finally decided to sell it all, pack up our 3 kids and live in an RV on our 73 acres while we building our own off grid house and learning to live a more self-reliant life.
Those boys have grown up so fast. Look at them helping you guys so much. You are doing such a great job with the children. I have noticed how polite they all are. So rare to see that in young folks today.
I have to compliment Josh on how he never gets mad when something doesn't work out- like the bolts. You always seem to remain calm and then go about finding a way to fix the problem. 👍 Good Job!
I love the fact Josh got so better in front of camera now he makes conversations and do good jokes , in the beginning Erin do long speech and josh be like " yes " hahahaha
I love them I literally wait whole week for the videos on both channels 💕
The barn door rollers were manufactured by a company from the town I live in. That's pretty cool! The door looks awesome!!
I love the energy of these two :)
Wow, just Wow. The barn/bathroom door has turned out beautiful, the colour, the door handles and fittings are just out of this world and match beautifully with the bathroom and the surroundings of the house. Josh and Erin is there nothing you two can not do? you both are amazing. The boys are so helpful and look like they enjoy doing the chores, collecting the wood driving the mule etc etc They are growing up fast and little Elly is so sweet and ready to join in, in everything. Have a great day guys and still rest a bit, after your flu .
How many are watching this and thinking to themselves " This is Joyful Heartwarming Reality"
Yeah! Early video! Josh is a blacksmith now! Love it!
Josh is a Jack of all trades!!
WWOG needs to do a collaboration with Essential Craftsman!
I’m always in awe of this couple, Josh for being so resourceful and so handy. Erin for being Josh’s biggest cheerleader! They are both always so positive and loving to each other, their children, their animals and to life it’s self!
The barn door and the hardware are so beautiful. Once again, you can be proud of yourselves.
"SIMPLE" Wild, Wonderful and Happy! What a beautiful and loving family. Your kids are the future of America! XX's
It seems there's nothing Josh can't do. The door looks great. Merry Christmas to everyone.
There are times when I suspect this couple could fix a rainy day.
@@BillB23 Erin with her smile. ❣️
Now he's a blacksmith with his own anvil (little small) and hammer!!👍👍
@@kat369-mine You took the words right out of my mouth! That's exactly what I commented to my daughter. I would trust Josh with any build it/fix it project.
@@kat369-mine And did it all without a forge-a true Renaissance man...
wow on a Thursday, special treat
The barn door looks fantastic. So glad ye save time for "family time".
Wow! What a beautiful door ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Beautiful. I think Erin and Josh are the best American family Our country needs more of.
Love y'alls channel I've kept up with y'all since the beginning you're doing amazing job.
And I as well.
Absolutely breathtaking. The door far exceeded the artistry and design that I envisioned. You two are the most gifted home designers I have ever seen. I still don't know how Erin and Josh learned all of this. Your children are such a blessing to see as well. I am so very honored and proud of you as a family. You inspire me.
Merry Christmas, my favorite people on UA-cam. Love both your Channels
Merry Christmas!
That hardware was completely worth it! Stunning. Love the family day!
So good to see you both 😘😍
God bless you my wonderful adopted family. Love your high spirit! My favorite is Chuckie and Pancho the crazy cat! Sending you lots of love! Merry 🎄! God bless you!
Your little girl is so sweet she makes my teeth hurt! Big brothers will be protective of her for a lifetime. Great channel!
Just recently discovered that on my paternal side, my great grandfather and his sons were blacksmiths, I don’t know why that makes me so proud but it does.🥰 You guys are doing an amazing job!
Blacksmithing is an amazing craft!
You should be proud 😀
An amazing craft that is making a comeback. It's offered in many industrial arts center. I was, pre covid, seeing more and more at outdoor art venues! Hope to see it again soon!
Master craftsman, and woman! Looks awesome!
Your boys are really growing up and able to supply “manpower” around the homestead....good to see 😁
The door looks wonderful. I love the old hardware to make it unique.
Hi guys hope everyone is feeling much better n dat u r eating or drinking things to give u back some strength. Wel take care guys dont over do
Loved that little Momma dance after the door hanging!!!
Your life style, what you are building, your own live stock, on your own land, even the joy of snow ( my favourite). This is my ultimate dream for my husband and I. I adore watching you, makes me want to pack up and do the same. Makes my heart ache with joy xx
Good job guys. Looks like the spring in your step has returned. Don't over do it you're still recovering.
Love the " Chuckie in the foreground " shot. Stellar cinematography.
That door turned out amazing! Can't wait to see how the other one turns out.
The doors, crown modeling and the incredible hardware are gorgeous and really add to the elegance and homeyness of your home. The fact that you and your family worked together to build and customize it only adds to the memories and history that you will treasure for generations to come. Other people have commented that watching you go through every step of the way to make your dreams come true is much better than any movie or television show on cable/satellite/network channels and definitely a million times better than any “reality “show which is actually more staged and scripted than a regular television show. I don’t have cable, satellite or network television because what little we might want to watch can usually be found on UA-cam or through my Amazon prime app. We generally only watch things we find on UA-cam and the number of channels that we subscribe to is constantly changing and channels get eliminated daily whenever they start falling into the UA-cam trap and lose their focus and reason for creating their channel. Thank you for sharing your dreams with us and keeping it real without sugar coating it when things don’t go to the plan. I don’t normally buy merchandise from channels, but I just received a couple of items from your merchandise that I ordered from Christmas presents. My family is going to LOVE it.
I'm loving seeing Chucky just continue to enjoy himself 🥰
I love the way you two work right through any problem big or small. You are what us old people call the salt of the earth. Love you guys.
💞💞 hope you're feeling better.
The mark of a true craftsperson is finding elegant solutions to problems that arise. And making those solutions look like that is what you had planned all along. :) Good job, Team WWOG.
*It's crazy how a door can make a room feels more homey and extra cozy cause its a barn door*
You are wonderful young people! I recently stumbled upon your UA-cam channel and have been trying to watch all your videos ever since. You, your family are real heroes! Few young people would do that. And I, for my 61 years and all my life lived in the big city, I would hardly decide to leave it, but my children - my son and daughter-in-law did it and now my beautiful granddaughter lives near the beautiful nature. Greetings and kisses from me and from distant Bulgaria!
Nice to see yall posting.
Absolutely love the barn door. You two are awesome! I watch a few you tubers and your channel is the best by far. You have the perfect balance of entertainment and also leave me feeling like I learned something with each video. Your whole family is so likable. I also enjoy ‘The After Show’.
Awesome job you guys. Keep up the great work! Always enjoy seeing your interaction with each other and your kids.
My favorite videos here are the ones where everything doesn't go as planned, and seeing the ways they overcome the small(and large) obstacles. Not to mention the production quality has become so good, I feel this could easily be something seen on netflix, hulu, etc. Great job, guys.
So now you are a blacksmith too :) . The early video was a nice surprise.
Chuck does great moody close ups and up uh are the best parents ever. Your kids are growing up with substance, skills, responsibilities and those are the kind of people who built this country.
if there is a will there is a way, great job!
Little Elli is still the star of the show. Then comes Leon and turkey.../LOL, your all stars in my heart. A rightly beautiful place or should I call it a woodsman's palace!! Good job kids
You two are amazing. Josh can literally do everything! I’ve watched this whole journey!
And once again, I’m crying at the end. Bravo! Merry Christmas to you all! 🎄
I love seeing these videos knowing that I could not do any of these things in any capacity. Seriously though most wholesome content on UA-cam right now.
The door install was great to watch. Lots of work but paid off in the end. Looks great! 👍
Oh how sweet that little ellie is.so cute getting ready for her first snow fun day. She was so excited she could hardly contain herself.
I like seeing the boys and ellie working getting and stacking firewood. Your already teaching them good work ethics but they've been doing that all along as ive seen them feeding animals and doing other chores.
I wish all families would get back to those days it would be a much better country if every family taught there kids chores and good work ethics takes you along ways in life.
I was raised that way putting in hay and feeding the pigs and cows and taking care of my dog and cats. I mowed a few lawns when I was 10 in the neighborhood and saved.
I loved every minute of it, dad even took me with him when it was time to go to my uncles and butcher the cows and pigs.i learned alot growing up that way.its just good oh family farming and bonding that you never forget.
Absolutely love your barn doors and the hardware. You don't find rollers like that just anywhere .the look perfect on those doors and in that home.
Love the door handles also so ornate and great looking.yall did another awesome job as always.
What happened to the black bolts on the middle door rails or did I misunderstand what you were going to do?
Or maybe thats the few things you still have to do yet.
But they look so great.love the size of them also.big oh doors .you have great vision to know what you want things to look like and then you build it and turns out perfect.
My mom lives in North Central Pennsylvania and got a foot of snow.
Hopefully yall didn't get 2 feet that would be tough to handle and move with the tractor but would be fun trying LOL.
Bruce is probably like what on earth is this white stuff 😄
Ok another long week until the next video I guess.
But I suppose I will survive LOL
Be safe 🙏
The doors look amazing. I love the rustic touches.
I just finished the video, and noticed that my face was sore. I realized I've been smiling for 20 minutes and 27 seconds straight! That'll do it! Love your videos. I came aboard to watch the build; now I'm fully invested in seeing your work and watching your wonderful family prosper! ☺️
A little caulk and paint makes a carpenter what he ain’t. Killer Door!
If you can jump it, you can caulk it!
Love that door and the handles! The house is looking wonderful can’t wait to see some shots of it with all the snow, it’ll be proper picture perfect 👌
Love the doors, love the home. Merry Christmas. God Bless.
You guys. The door is gorgeous. The handles and hardware phenomenal. What a job. Totally custom. Fantastic. Blown away by your skills. Stay safe. Julie (Burlington Ontario)
Add something like rubber bands/felt to the wheels to add a little more padding on the top. :) And probably quiet down the rolling.
great idea!
I was thinking to remake the rail, but with the mounting holes not in the center. If the hole was lower on the rail, it would raise the top edge of the rail without any modification needed to the lag bolt heads. Would also raise the entire door a bit, but not sure if that's a big deal.
...or maybe you could slot the existing holes in the rail vertically...essentially extending them downward, so you could slide the rail upward compared to the lag. I'll bet the screw compression would keep the rail from sliding down in the slot, once the lags are tightened. Then you wouldn't have to look at those modified lag screw heads every time you walked by there...
Pro tip
If you're going to use your trailer for a work bench?
Mount a vise to the corner of it. Right on the railing.
Mine is easily removed/installed.
I’m On time finally!!!!!
Completely custom and completely beautiful work! You two are a phenomenal team!
Every single thing about this video was so awesome ❤️ The house is just stunning and your family is so loving and beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing
I have watched various off grid channels and couple's but I love your videos the most...
Pretty work! Now let's see some more fun in the snow!! You guys Rock!
Where there's a will, there's a way! You guys are rock stars in the 'winging it' department, always able to figure out what needs to happen to make your vision a reality! Cutting the crown molding brought back memories of playing with the end cuts as a kid when my dad was building things. Today's kids have Lego, we had hunks of wood!
Love The Doors And The Fittings ❤️ Hope You Both Are Both Feeling Better
Happy Christmas To You All ❤️ ❤️ 🎄☃️xx
SNOW DAY! Everything stops for snow day! Wishing you all peace, love and better health for the Holidays and beyond!
Wow I love the Doors and the Hardware, everything is so Beautiful, wishing you and your family a Very Merry Christmas
You guys have the most adorable baby girl there’s! I enjoy her casual appearances. And your home, is so beautiful. Can’t believe it’s done! Congratulations for your beautiful family and home.
the door looks so good well done both merry christmas to you all.
Nice work, once again she's painting the wall with no drop cloth, brave girl. Love you guys.
You guys really have a great work ethic and you know what you want and are willing to do what it takes to achieve it!!!! 👍
You guys & Red Pappy Ranch are the best downhome families videographers around on You Tube.
Y'all have such a wonder family and world you have created! Merry Christmas from East Texas.
Josh is a jack of all trades. I was glad to see you were able to make the door work for your home. Indeed a family that works together plays together and you don't allow family time to be slighted. It's good to see all coming together.
I would router out the doors to fit the bracket.
Great to see you two looking great again. It was a little bit Walking dead
The kids chip in getting firewood and doing other chores, Life lessons that will last forever. Merry Christmas to you all.
Love love love all the beauty, have fun and Merry Christmas 🎄...
If the hex head bolts do still bug ya later get some large phillips head countersunk screws and countersink bits for the rails. Plus if the hex bolts on the door are tearing up the door frame do the same thing there to.
Now, that its a pretty door
The door looks awesome, chuck looks like a happy dog. Spending time with family having fun is very important. God bless your family.
Next build- a workshop for you all. There is nothing you all can't do! Love the doors.
And garage too
I was just thinking that too, he definitely deserves that!
Greetings from Belarus. I watch these videos and admire this beautiful family. I wish your family a lot of positive and the realization of all your plans.
love you sliding doors ad's accent to " this is my home look"
You guys make my heart smile. Love getting my Elle and Chucky fix!
Shoutout from florida!!
Electrical, carpentry, masonry, and now a little blacksmithing. Josh can do it all! Cheers and best wishes for a safe and happy new year from Toronto.
Doors look great! I love how you guys work through problems! Do I see a workshop in 2021??
The doors are perfect. Isn't it a good feeling to see all your hard work come together in such a pleasing way?
Best Quote of the video "It tastes like chocolate."
just be glad she never said it tastes like Yellow snow
Do you mind me asking what is the name of the other channel please
The fact that the kids are outside driving the UTV and loading wood speaks volumes. Our country will survive.
If that snow gets any deeper, you're going to have to dig chucky a path.
It looks fantastic! Customized to perfection! Enjoy the snow.
Your home looks fantastic, great job! Merry Christmas and all the best in 2021, to you and yours. Did you get your taste buds back yet?
What a great job. Talk about old time attention to quality and detail. Love the fact this is a TRUE solid wood strong door.
good choice of music at the start
I'm running out of words to describe what beautiful work you guys do. Again, an amazing job.
Glad you are feeling better, and were able to enjoy the snow with the kids, and Chuck.
Thanks for taking us along 😊
❤️🌵☀️⛈️🌈☮️🐎
Merry Christmas! Glad to see you guys back at it and that everybody is healthy. Erin, whatever happens, do NOT LET JOSH SEE THIS WEEKS INSTALLMENT FROM 22PLINKSTER!!! :)
