Well, young man.....let me start off by saying, I was wondering how things were going for my favorite KZitem family...did I miss an episode last week? But I'm very happy to see you this week!! Now the usual...those beautiful young ladies just never cease to amaze me with their willingness to help out! They just put such a smile on my face and warm my heart! And the misses...yeah, no more arm wrestling her for sure! Looks like the work on the cabin is following something my grandma used to say...the hurrier I go the behinder I get! The more work you do on the house the more you find needs to be done! You probably wonder "why don't we just burn it down and start fresh"...I know I would at times but when you do get to the point where its behind you, you'll be proud of everything you've done! As always, I really look forward each week to see you, your lovely wife and everyone's favorite bunch of girls go at it! God bless you and your family...and I look forward to the next adventure! 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

Hey dare you yoopers!!! I'm a little sore from rebuilding my sand bag house here in AZ. after we had more monsoon rain then the past 10 years. My 20' wall fell down and and in typical yooper work ethic I put it back up. The technical term for wet Adobe is squishy and miserable to untangle the barbed wire and rebar. I had to make several trips for more building supplies,( beer) as my months of hard work crashed. I still have to rebuild the root cellar and Sauna now too. When the going gets tough the tough get going!! It's a Finlander thing !! Sure wish my wife wouldn't have run off as she did help a little. I guess I need to import one from the U.P. eh? I remember my years on the farm in Eben Junction with only two seasons. Winter's coming and winter's here!!

It appears that we are both bonded by the same misfortune that everything we have to fix turns into a major issue before we can complete it. Each time I think something will be an easy fix, I turn up more underlying problems. I was taught that anything worth fixing was worth fixing well so I continue on until I get it done. Sometimes I throw more money into than it is worth but, I know it's not going to break down again for a long time.

Easiest way to drill a well is with a power washer. Put a spray tip on a pipe (we just used a male tip for air hoses). Put it inside a larger pipe. You will have to add pipe for the casing and washer at the same time. The larger pipe will be the casing. The water pressure a flow will cut threw the soil and water will wash the dirt out of the casing. You have plenty of water from the creek with a pump to keep the volume up for the power washer. Sometimes just a high volume pump is enough to do the job of drilling the hole. The pipe will almost fall in the hole. When finished, pull pipe up a little bit to let water in and drop about 2 feet of gravel in a hole. Drop your screen and pipe down till its on the gravel. Don't pull out the casing because it might collapse again.

Pulling the house together permanently. Drill 2 holes in 2 plates in identical locations. Weld 2 bolts (so the bolts wont turn) in one plate. Drill holes though the other plates and make sure they are straight in. Put the plates with the bolts in from the back side. Use the bolts to draw up the floors and walls. Make as many of these plates as needed to pull it together firmly. My favorite thing is engineering and making things that fix unusual problems.

Man, that reminds me so much of the place my dad bought after he retired from the US Army in 1967. A horrid shack that started as a pole barn for lambing. Someone put hanging walls on it, tossed plywood on the ground and called that a floor. Every time it rotted out, they put more on top of that. Dad was the exact same way. This is a case of you'd be way better off working on your actual house. I know you need shelter for this winter and my heart goes out to you all. It ain't gonna be easy. Thank God you are such a tight knit family. Do me a favor. Be religious about NOT leaving nails sticking out of boards. Pull them out or cut them off. I stepped on four of them when dad was rebuilding our place. All four went all the way through my feet. Two up the leg bones, one on each side... of course! And the other two in the bottom of the foot and out the top of the shoe. Also, one on each side. Tetanus shots suck and worse yet, my aunt, whose answer for everything was turpentine. Yikes and yuck! So, when I see boards with nails, I nearly start crying.

I thought I had bad luck, until I started watching your channel.... So all I can say is thank you for sharing the bad luck you have along with the few bits of good. Hope you get that cabin fixed before winter truly sets in, and of course I hope that you can get a well. I kind of had a similar problem as what your having with your cabin, except mine was an old 1979 trailer, and the floor was falling out, and I refuse to go under the thing to try and fix anything due to the amount of spiders and ant nests under the trailer. So I am working on building up a couple buildings (bathroom, bedroom, and eventually a kitchen) out of bricks and concrete. It's a lot easier than trying to mill my own lumber, or repair the crappy trailer I own. Best of luck, and again thanks for not hiding the bad luck that strikes. It's refreshing to see someone who doesn't want people to think life is all good without any trials or troubles.

@@9252LIFE Sorry about the nightmares, just be glad your not in the south eastern USA where I am with the spiders I was talking about. But in all honesty be safe man, there are nasty biting critters everywhere, and your channel is one of the better ones I follow. If you can afford to, do what we did in the army prior to mobilizing to go to Iraq. Get some liquid insect poison, (something with DEET in it), and soak a uniform (well we did our uniforms anyways.) for a couple hours in it, let the clothing you soak air / drip dry, and it will help with the insects.... Just DO NOT wear the clothing while it's still wet from the initial soaking.... (I had to do that, and it left me feeling shaky for most of a day. But as long as you let it fully dry you should be fine.)

Hi Chad, Naomi & girls I had my notification 🔔 on, but somehow missed this video? I went to your channel to see if you had any recent posts and found this one.. I just got done watching it🙂 "This Too Shall Pass" 🙏 someday when you look back, you'll be happy you didn't give up the off grid life. I'm proud of you all for your determination. It's a rough life, but will be rewarding. God bless,♥️ ~Heidi

More of a river than a road! You lucked out with that generator pull rope. When starter ropes break on me, it always seem to be two inches short of enough for a start! When we were building our homestead, we involved our daughter in everything, and just a couple of days ago she was up in the air helping me fly-in rafters for our new pole barn! She definitely has no fear of hard work 😉

Clicked like for the guitar pickin' alone. Great video though. You're training them right. Those girls are fantastic workers and you're teaching them valuable lessons. Reminds me of my late dad and me. He took me on jobs at an early age and the experience has carried on throughout my life.

Fixing the foundation is very satisfying. You get to see and feel the benefits of it in every other aspect of the house. Tough dirty work but you will be thankful when you are done. Having the chickens to help and Isaac to keep the girls on task are real bonusses. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your videos. I am sorry that you and your beautiful family have to go through all of this on the cabin. I sort of went through similar with my old historic house and it put me in a ton of debt to get foundations corrected, etc. I recently sold it, payed off the debt and I am under contract for a cabin in EUP right now. Your videos are making me cringe a tad on the what-if's, since my illusion was the 'simplicity' of owning a cabin. My cabin is also sight unseen, so I stay glued to your channel for information and tips. Please don't stop making videos because you are helping a LOT of people. Love your channel and your family! Blessings to all of you!!
