    My daughter was born just before the first video I saw in this series. It was the cool floor insulation system you built. I got to watch progress every week as she grew in the NICU (born at 24 weeks gestation - 1 lb, 10.8 oz). Now she’s almost 13 months old, and healthy as can be! These videos were a welcome escape from the hospital setting for the five months we were there. I’ll never be able to truly express how thankful I am to you for that.

Before I retired I even went out to sea alone to pocket a few extra bucks doing yacht deliveries. I hope, I sincerely hope while you were doing your spectacular work there was someone standing by with a box of Bandades. I did notice towards the end of your video, you had started useing a push stick with your tablesaw.

    I very much enjoyed your cabin build video. Congratulations! It looks incredible and the scenery and wildlife are beautiful. You and I are very much alike. We both are building off grid, we both started with raw land, we both have a Woodland Mills HM126 saw mill, we both built a cabin. My interior is done with the exception of the wood siding on the walls but in the next couple months that will be complete. I agree with you that while it was work it was fun work building in the woods on our property for guests to stay in when visiting us. I built it 12' x 24', big enough for a king size bed, couch with coffee table, dining table, propane heater. I enjoyed your video with my coffee this morning.

My favorite two things: the wonky/wonderful small tree limbs that made up the "railing" for the loft and, especially, that you left all the walls unfinished. That very light wood is a wonderful contrast to the finishes put on the other areas and it also makes the inside seem more open and bright, too. Thanks a bunch!!🦌🦌
