Get a lockbox or even a tote with a good secure lid and keep a variety of clothing items, your harness, ear plugs, etc up there. That way you won’t have to worry about forgetting them…. Made my build a lot nicer, the more stuff I was able to leave up top (WV mountain top) the nicer things got, less forgetting and less moving stuff.

You can use the loader curl to sorta pull you through difficult sections, slow but has helped me get out of some sticky spots.

everyone get on that Patreon to get this man some big knobby tires for that tractor!!

Your energy and joy for life are infectious! Love your content over the last few years. My wife and I laugh every time we watch one of your videos. As fellow Western Canadians you make us proud!!!

Always such a huge relief when you get a lid on building, then weather becomes less of a factor in determining when you can work on it.

I see a bridge in your future plans. It would be a great video playlist...

Hi Graeme, cut back a heap of saplings and lay them on your track in the difficult parts, the saplings are only competing for light and nutrients and the forest will thrive when not competing so much. I know you’ve got craploads on your plate so maybe Dad can help with that next time he visits. Mate your doing a brilliant job on the cabin and you always make me smile. Peace & woodchips my friend. 🇦🇺 Shell

I love the progress. If i were ever able to build a cabin, it would be like this: one day a week, all by myself, and watching you gives me hope i can do the same one day.

For the love of God, Graeme- bring some gravel up with you next time. Load the bucket on the tractor and just drop it ahead of you on the muddy spots 😆

Stretch those hammies! 😆 Gotta love Jeeps and safety gear, yes indeed.

Time to drag up the teardrop camper so you have a warm up shack!

Wonderful progress! As you brought up the last three boards…holding them as you drove, the words, “whatever works” came to mind…and that’s just how it is sometimes.

Happy WG Saturday 🎉

Awesome to see you ploughing through, Graeme!

When you get stuck on the hill like that use the bucket to pull you over the tough spot. Man i love this channel. You make my day bro. God bless

Go to Harbor Freight and get a $30 come a long and keep it up there at the cabin for various situations. If you would have had that with you, you could have hooked it to that tree in front of the tractor and manually winched up the tractor a few feet to get it past that mud hole.

You are doing such a great job with this build. Great problem solving. And filming it all as you go to share with all of us. Each step as you say is getting you closer and I’m looking forward to seeing how this all turns out. 😀

So glad you have that harness now. You're crazy ya know, so cold.

Put a space heater in your outhouse so you can warm up when needed.

Great build so far! Loving the series.

Great work Graeme, it's brutal in this cold weather working by yourself, I have to give you lots of credit doing this build !! The cabin is coming together and it's going to be your best build, TAKE CARE man !

It looks like the tougher the jobs gets the more energized you get.

Nice fall protection bro! I was so happy to see that! You're awesome.. Happy New Year friend!

Your Canadian spirit is correct. You can handle anything Virginia throws at you!! But for frig skates don't complain about it! T-shirt weather. Always.

Man, lots of respect having to haul all that lumber and then work on a 12/12 roof like this. We both know that the video doesn’t do it justice and that it’s nerve wracking being up there. You’re slowly getting there, one day at a time. Every time I try to project all the steps I still have left, it gets depressing real fast so much better to just focus on making progress and then we’ll inevitably both get our projects done ! (Until the next one 😂). Good luck and always enjoying your videos !

Happy New Years mister. I don’t care what any one says that camp is a thing a beauty!! Glad to see you powering through, and you are right in your little diddy you sang every trip is one more closer to the end. Can’t wait for the next vid where I can continue to live vicariously through you lol

Excellent progress on the roof. Keep it up you are almost there on the roof.

So much progress! And under such adverse conditions!

Slow and steady baby! Great hot wheels haul ❤

Good morning! It's good to see that you were able to get more done on the roof before the weather changes. Everything is looking good! ❤ I guess you're getting a workout in building your cabin. 😉 💪 🏃 It'll be worth it in the end when you're sitting back and enjoying your view. Enjoy your weekend. 😊 🙏 ❤

Glad you decided to use the safety harness! Had a good laugh about the cirque de soleil comment 😀

Great work today! Loved your energy and jokes, seems like you're feeling a bit better!

The cabin is very beautiful and I can almost see the project being completed.

Wonderful work.

That was another fun and exciting episode. Thank you.

NEXT TIME do not drive in the mud tracks already made. Put on side of the wheels in the middle portion of the road and the other side of wheels in the off road side of the brush for traction.

Thanks for sharing

Way to go, when this cabin is done I better see you bust a move inside this glorious woodnees goodness cabin

Great job!!

Great work today. Always fun to watch your videos. I always get happy when I see that you have a new video out. Greetings from Sweden.

wheel chains and then do some trail work this summer

Love these videos. Awesome work

Nice one Graham.

Great job❤ I like the harness, why to protect your kids future💪🏻

Cirque De Soleil or Bust , is the next T shirt

After this cabin build we're gonna need a "bridge to get past the creek" build

Binge watched the last few videos to catch up , glad to see you're getting after it! Please for the love of god wear that safety harness

I wish the handle on Milwaukee tool boxes went all the way down. It makes it hard to transport with a tonneau cover.

Perhaps attach a winch to a tree above the place where you stated that you often get stuck? Winch the tractor and load out?

You should have played Sail by awol nation when you were being blown over by the wind carrying that wood up the hill lol. Keep on keeping on my dude. Maybe take some of your scrap wood to put over the really muddy sections on your trail?

Great 👍 work 👏 love the video as always. My only complaint is I don't want it to end, but I understand it's a lot of work putting everything together. Thanks! 😊❤

I love your attitude, and your videos. I enjoy seeing your skills progress. It's also nice to see you are taking your safety a little more serious. A couple things about that harness. Suspension trauma is a real thing. If you fall into it, and are suspended you have in and around 10 minutes to get yourself up. If not, the leg straps will start to cutoff your arteries. You can die in the harness. 2. Your anchor point needs to withstand 5000 lbs. Your d ring needs to be in between your shoulder blades, and the chest strap at your nipples. I'm a union ironworker. I I've seen people fall, and I've rescued people. It's not fun. And not something to take lightly. I know this is a a "recreational" build, but this is all true info. I say all this cause I wanna see more videos. Be safe, have some fun, and do your best. We all learn from mistakes. I'll leave with one more tip. I tell all my guys, and especially my apprentices this. have, and know a way out, at all times.

I'm in same spot. Absolutely brutal out right now. It's 15 degrees and like 20 mph wind. I covered roof with tarp and waiting til next week. 😂

You are amazing man ... well done! Lovin' your channel!

That brought back some horrid memories of last year hahahahha...if your legs cramp up get some magnesium supplements, my legs cramped like mad every night after working on my roof and it really helped! I am pretty sure we have the same safety bucket! That freaking rope was always in my way hahahaahahha

Super Grover has nothing on you! 😁

How's your knees after all that mountain goating, Graeme? Remember to keep hydrated, even in cold weather!

Next time you could screw in some eye-hooks and a pulley to the ridge beam top before lifting it into place. Hindsight is 20/20 😅🤷🏾

She’s coming together almost dried in 🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️

Thank you for having excellent audio

Gotta love @GRKfastners ❤ I don’t remember if you said what roof covering your using but I vote metal 🎸 🤟

they say the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. The same is true for tools in a packout the weight is much greater than the sum of the individual tools, at least that's how it feels when youre hoisting those things in and out of your vehicle. I used to have one of those big three section Dewalt sliding toolboxes and I could not lift it into the car so I switched to packouts where I could just stack them individually and load them on the packout cart. Who needs a gym when you have tools.

My grand father built a cabin in the 1940’s 16’x 16’ with 8 8’ Porch on the front and 8’x8’ kitchen on the back. Still in the family after 80+ years. Amazing he did it all without power tools. But must have been easier without plywood.

Great video your a funny guy. lol

I would have recommended, and I know this comes late, but cutting the synthetic paper for the roof BEFORE you are on the roof makes it much easier to manage. If a future adventure brings you to this point again file that idea for if you are working alone then too.

good vid man!

Mornin 🖐😎👍

I agree, who needs a gym membership when you have several acres to tend and a barn to renovate? 😅

My eyes when I saw the hot wheels 👀👀

So close to the roof being done!! I've been looking forward to every Saturday as of late to catch your videos. If you don't mind me asking, what new camera did you get? I usually only rock the GoPro on my channel, but I'm in the market for an upgrade. Thanks Graham!

Get a 55 gallon drum to keep warm 🥵

I dont see that the 1x was necessary but what do i know. I do pest control. Im currently laid off for the winter and id love to come give you a hand but its just so dang comfortable just sitting in my recliner and watching it on video lol. Great job

Holy Woodness Ifinallyworeaharnessness baby!!!! Glad to see that you will not die from falling off your roof and the bears eating your Canadian ass lol. You might have a heart attack from carrying all that lumber up hill though. Maybe the trail up to the cabin can be wider and have gravel so you can drive right up with the truck with no issues. You would need to do that when the cabin is finished if you use it as an air bnb. I love all the sounds you make when you’re carrying the plywood in the wind. You are one tough mother lover big G. Everything is looking awesome and keep up the great work.

Brrrrrr... Nice work!

Good ole, semi professional amateur work!

Time for a road so you can bring the jeep right up. I know, I know, very easy to say but you’ll save time and might be easier to recruit an extra hand. Worried about your safety.

Yeah man, don't stop. Get the lid on it and camp out overnight.

Next time it’s slippery try and offset your tires to the high side (grassy area). I know it’s easy for me to say, not being there. Good luck and keep them coming also glad your making them longer.

When your tractor gets stuck in those rutts, what's it look like to the left? Blaze a new trail around the little pine maybe?..

Send it through the stream!!!!

“I don’t think I have to say ‘don’t try this at home’ because why would anyone want to?” 😂😂😂😂 oh man that one made me laugh.

4⭐️!!

Is your new camera the DJI Osmo Pocket 3? Great camera. I wondered if you would get it. Seems like the perfect thing to reframe your shot or follow you when you can't reach it, but have your phone on you.

Hola amigo, todo un reto de superacion el video, te hubieran hecho falta un par de manos mas. No me hubiera importado hecharte un cable, jajaja Saludos....

You have a tractor with a bucket, order a load of gravel and rock for the road…..

booya! safety hrness.

You need to packup your family in the teardrop and spend a three day weekend working on your cabin.

Congratulations, what's the next goal.

I am really lazy and would find a way to get a road way up there.

👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Did you try to lower the tire pressure on your tractor?

Let some air out of the tractor tires

They make tire chains for your tractor...........

Did you wear the harness into the dollar store?

It’s not worth risking your life. But you pulled it through lol. Whatever it takes..

woooooooohooooooooooo

This would be way easier if you just put all your effort into growing a set of wings! I knew a guy who did that. Hmm I wonder what ever happened to him.

There's nothing wrong with the way you strapped the first side with 2x4. The problem I see happening now with those little 1x4 blocks is that you're forced to nail them in the middle thus making the block susceptible to splitting down the middle, making your roof attachment weak! Imo the 2x4 is way stronger, Than any 1x4 can be!

Wow, that tired me out!

Grae, you are so cool. You know that right?
