    Hi I live in England and I love watching your videos, I havent been here right from the get go but I got here early enought to see the wall go up and from the roof onwards and I have to say that I have never seen two people work so hard and you and your wife, you must be proud of yourselves for all that you have done on your own.. Its 2-30pm Wednesday afternoon here and I have just finished watching your video and I have to say I did have a little laugh when you asked your wife if she came there often, and you were cleaning her jacket, she could of replied yes almost every day.. Its good to hear you both have a laugh now and again. Keep going both of you I am looking forward to the finished home, again you are doing a great job. Both of you are nice people...

      Thank you. It was a leap of faith. When we bought it, it was completely wooded and in the middle of summer. We walked the land together, did the survey tour and in one spot, we share a fence with a cow field. Forest on our side, grass and cows on theirs. We wandered out into the field and saw what the mountains looked like from there so we knew there had to be a decent view on our place.

    It's always good to see you two making progress and meeting milestones. I would think this is a very big one for you. As far as I can tell once the front door goes in the house will be basically weather tight. Again personal choice but given your view I think I would have gone with the windows adjacent to the door as picture windows and only had the outer two as casement windows, the other side of the same argument is symmetry across the front of the house which seems to have been your choice. Either way this is going to be a bright and spacious great room. Keep your energy and spirits up!!

      There are days that you don’t want to do it. And a few where we wondered what we were thinking to start something this big. But most of the time has just been having faith in the process. Knowing that the hard work would bring completion. The little mundane tasks are the ones I find the hardest to do but they are also the difference be tween a good job and a great one.

      For me this is much more exciting now. I have never built anything before this. We started with shovels digging out soil for the plumbing wastes pipes. Was not exciting stuff for me. It took a lot for me to envision how this house would look. David laid out the perimeters a few times and would say, “this is your kitchen etc. I needed carrots along the way. There are days when lunch is my highlight. 😀

    May I asks what is the actual size of the window (5:30) & price of it & where to buy to install it myself?
    My lousy casement windows were made by *Pella. Never buy from them. I got scammed because they said wood was the best.
    * Pella casement had metal on the outside & the rest, all wood. Wood rotted (although I had the inside primed/painted/clear c)
    * Worst windows ever.

    • @breakheartorchard4761

      The windows are 6 ft x 4 ft. Purchased at Home Depot. Anderson 100 series. We have been very pleased so far. Prices have gone crazy the last couple years but when we bought, I believe it was about $880 per window for the casement windows. Go to the millworks area and talk to one of their people. Its a custom order and there was lead time to contend with but I have no regrets.
