I think Graham was maybe a little critical of Graham.

The drama, the suspense, the characterization.

IT IS GOOD TO HAVE SOMEONE LOOKING OUT FOR YOU... YOU SHOULD ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR FRIEND....LOL

We here. Lying in a hotel in another state, couldn’t sleep and this video dropped at perfect time. Watching. Enjoying. Liking. Especially… the epic beginning! 🔥🔥

Holy Woodness Splitpersonalityness baby!!!! I always knew there was something off with you big G but that is why we love ya lol. There is always a fix for the semi professional amateur!!! All you had to do is ask you architect and she would have made a sketch for you in crayon and you would have been set. Nice job on the cabin and thanks for keeping us entertained brother and keep getting after it.

The windows again, Good recovery man.

What I love about what you do, is how you show the changes that any project goes through and why the changes are needed. So much more realistic for novice woodworkers and semi professional amateurs!!

Another Epic adventure Gman, great opportunity solving skills!!

Having a moment of silence for the A-Frame…. Love the new plan with a big window in the front and a side door!

Good thing you caught the window issue ahead of time. You saved yourself a lot of frustration!

I'll be waiting for your next episode. Love watching you build!

Can't you just extend the existing walls with another row of framing?? Loved the intro!❤OK, I commented too soon, I begged you to not build an A frame and I got my way!! Yes!!❤❤

Amazing! Nothing beats waking up on a Sunday morning and seeing a Woodness Goodness fresh upload. You the man G!

Yet again. Another creative and fantastic episode. Personally, I’m glad you are not building the A-frame; so much unusable space. I know your “ tower-of-power” will not go to waste. It can become blocking between rafters, door and window framings, wood shed, furniture for the cabin and even firewood. The possibilities are endless. I like how you roll and are willing to change things up and be willing to try new ideas. That’s how you achieve GREATNESS. ❤

17:15 I'm strong, and I'm brave, and I'm beautiful. This is now my Monday mantra.

The full wall of windows with the door moving to the side wall would be epic. It should all revolve around that view! I’m enjoying watching.

I’m honestly so impressed that you remembered the different stud lengths for the rear wall. Kudos on making the free windows work. Glazing is expensive.

The new walls are great! I think having a huge window instead of a door would be great, cus the view is amazing. I really admire how you get after it even if you have to rebuild a days work. This build will be EPIC!

You sir are my favourite KZfaqr. Great editing, Funny as always and very honest in your videos. Keep up the great work 👍

A ten foot deep deck and five foot wide wrap around porch would be a good use of the studs! ❤

THE DIALOGUES! I love em! You made the best out of the situation!

Woodness Goodness when you pick up a wall by yourself, first put a 2x4 on the outside edge going straight up and screw it at the bottom, then take a 2x4 about 6' away and screw another 2x4 at the bottom on the outside and then screw that 2x4 to the first 2x4 to make a triangle on the side and do this on both sides. Now when you lift the wall it will be in place and in between the 2 triangle 2x4s you made. Now walk to the outside edge with your drill on your belt and screws in your pocket and screw the triangle 2x4 to the wall to hold it in place while you walk to the other side and screw the other side. This will hold the wall in place while you have time to screw down the wall permanently. I use framing guns with nails for framing then EVERYTHING ELSE gets screwed with screws and if they are in treated lumber I use exterior deck screws because they are made for outdoor weather. That way you know its secure and you can always unscrew it.

Larval ticks are hatching right now which is what you might be getting into!! So easy to brush up against a nest and grab 60 tag a longs. I personally treat my clothes with sawyer's permethrin - just read the directions really well - clothes last 3 washes or 6 weeks. They literally die on socks and my pants lol its the best.

You're intro skit was epic. Great job pivoting to a better design to suit the FREE windows. Good thing you didn't listen to Devil Graeme. I agree, the trees enclosed in the deck will be marvelous. If you build a wraparound deck to the view side, big french doors that open up the whole space would be incredible too. Lots to decide.

Your intro was on point!!!! For some reason when you raise the walls you freak me out lol!!!! Glad you enjoyed the pictures…I love A-Frames from a snow and heating stand point they are pretty functional…We will start renting it out soon 😀

The editing in that intro was magnificent. Great video and thanks for showing us your mistakes as well.

Graeme, you did a good job fixing your problem. Owning up to your mistakes is not easy to do.

Great video. Stop being so hard on yourself. You are doing a fantastic job. I have never been able to figure out those darn bird mouth cuts. Yours is PERFECT. Liz should get a babysitter and come up with you and help. It would be great to have a second set of hands and I think it would be fun for her. ❤❤❤

New subscriber here! 30 years ago I built a cabin with a 12-12 roof pitch. The loft can get a little cramped. Look into a shed roof Dormer. Easy to build and adds quite a bit of room. 👍

Impressive save on the first wall raising. Putting up a ten foot section of 8' wall this summer i lost it and thankfully squeezed between the studs! Mine was much lighter but very uncomfortable. Good work.

Beautiful setting. Progress

Just hide an AirTag or two on the tractor. You’ll be able to track it if stolen and can always check in to make sure it’s where you left it.

Oh yea the fighter jets I think I love seeing that as much as you!!!

You need some windows on the 3 walls you built already... and a back door to escape from the bear coming in the other side of the cabin...

One of the best 2 minute openings in KZfaq history. Keep it up Graham!

Okay I just found your channel and binge watch this project and now I'm working on the cabin build in your back yard! So much fun and you are absolutely a professional nut! I mean that in the most endearing way of course! Love the videos...keep them coming!

I understand. Been working on plans for my 6/12 skillion post and beam square saddle notched masonry earth ship. Wanted 6 foot north wall but standard door heights. And needing room for egress windows. And can only span 15'3" on 2x12 rafters for snow loads. So had to loose 32" inches and add extra bent in the center. And down 4 feet was still in sand so had to go 6'8" down for my piers.

Been there. You will overcome. 🙏🏼✨

Let's all just give it up for those kickstands. They work when you don't need em, and don't work when you need them! Maybe base your channel on your mess ups grant. Maybe your on to something. If it's worth doing, it's worth redoing. Either way, it's fun to watch your videos. Your attitude is what brings me back. Mess ups and all! "Pobody is nerfect" - Pam Beesly

Swiftly rectified! I love that idea of the deck around the trees. Gotta make that happen.

Next time you stand a wall toe nail the plate to the floor before you stand it up so it dosent move. Or nail a board proud to the floor on the beam to back up to so it dosent slide off the deck. Also your supports for keeping your wall straight use nails next time it’s faster to put up and take down, just have to hit the board with a hammer and they will fall off instead of having to get a ladder and take every screw out.

Love it Bro you’re Killin it 🙋‍♂️

Mistake shamake.. still gonna be epic!!! 👊😎👍

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing.

Dude that intro 😂 legend !

Sorry to see that you had to change the design! What kind of roof do you plan on putting up there? Metal or shingles? Not gonna lie but 12/12 is going to be steep! I just have a 6/12 and I was less than comfortable up there 😂 Can’t wait to see what crazy system you will come up with to make it possible 😅

Save your tower to make a hunting blind, couple walls and a roof are all you need

Great videos man. Love your content. Keep pushing.

I had a property weekend, too. We have an idea of an A-frame, and an idea for a basic cabin. Our execution is nil. I slept in a tent on a platform. Despite having to do stuff over, you’re making great progress. Keep up the great work. Loved this episode.

👍 Great video! Laughed really hard at your intro. 😂 Thanks for being real and authentic. You’re living my dream right now. Keep up the good work, and don’t sweat the mistakes.

Beautiful snake. Love the spandex shorts look. The view is so beautiful of the mountain I would hate to see it blotted out by a door, but hey, it's your cabin.

It's always rough when you have to rip something apart because of a mistake you've made, but hey you learned something right. Loving this build, can't wait to see how it comes together.

This is how every conversation I have in my head goes 😂😂😂

Great job. I never say to much, dont want it going to your head

Smart move! And def don’t put door out front unless u have a deck out there which would be cool. If No deck out that way then put the door out the back

Bummer about rebuilding the walls. The view will be amazing. Peace!

I feel bad that you had to re-create your cabin, but that really was a fun and entertaining video. Thank you.

At least you’re not on a time frame for your build but treating down sucks lol Great job & awesome videography 👌🏼😁

I think we should get Graham some windows with the proper pitch, so he can redo the framing again, back to an A frame. 🤙😂.

Hey this is a steep increase in production quality of videos. And the new design will be great. The mountain view needs as much windows as possible :)

That's how you get so much stuff done. There's two of you

😱just more great Graham content for us followers!! Good catch though buddy

Using a speed square to keep your saw straight 🤯 I wish I had thought of that when I built my A-frame last summer. Watching your videos inspired me to do it (if this goofy dude can do it all alone then I can, too). My A-frame is only 140 sq ft and does have a loft and it DOES look super cool but in hindsight I wish I would have built something more practical. I’m so excited to see your cabin come together!

Tooooooo funny!! Bonus - it was no views when I clicked. 😮

Most hilarious vlog ever!

If you want a bit more useful space above at the loft level, build a 3’ or 4’ wall above the floor/ceiling joists. And set your rafted on those walls. They can make a big different in how functional the loft space will feel.

Mr. Gorbachev - Tear Down This Wall

I know it was a pain doing that, but you just picked up so much room inside! Also, door in front....you are going to want to walk out and sit on that deck for the epic view!

Permethrin works great for chiggers. You spray it on your clothes and let it dry. I really enjoy your videos and give me inspiration to build something!

Fight club vibes on this one. I am jack’s busted A Frame 😂😂😂

You should definitely put a window instead of a door on that wall and focus on the epic view

Hey Graham I have a number for you to call, he might be able to help you with this problem? all you have to do is lay on his couch and talk for awhile and then take the medication he prescribes for you Lol KIDDING BUDDY you not cra cra! your scafolding can now be used as a fighter jet look out platform? or bird watching perch? nothing goes to waste with minds like ours, always thinking, also can get medication for? We carpenters call that change a plan B frame hopefully you don't get to the plan C frame. Great video Graham I know that this cabin in the woods is going to be awesome buddy. 👍Take care, stay safe, keep healthy and God bless💙😇

You are amazing as a one-man wrecking/erecting crew! A few thoughts: Do you really want your entrance door and porch focused on an outhouse? I strongly recommend either a second door, or at least an egress-sized window, for safety's sake. You did right by not capping those lower walls, as that would leave you with a very weak wall, structurally. I love that you are not afraid to back up when necessity calls for it! Great job so far. Thanks!

1:55. oh that blasted feeling! Ouch! 5:44. That was B.A! 17:36 Oh Shht!! Moment

This is hilarious!!

Got to roll with the punches 😂

You should enter through a trap door in the floor. Ordinary entry doors are for city folk.

Dude, you kill me😂

I know it sucks but at least you realsied the mistake early enough to be able to recover without having to strip down a completed roof, etc.

Should have just gone with the original design and align one of the sides of the windows with the angle of the roof instead of the ground. They'll look off kilter, but very unique.

You want to make sure nobody can steal your tractor? Take the distributor cap home with you.

“Fighter jets!”

Love the video effect where you’re talking to yourself. Very cool. Well done. But it hurt to watch you knock down your two 5’ walls. Why didn’t you just add 3’ to each wall? Wouldn’t that have been easier and much less dangerous?? Signed fellow Canadian 🇨🇦

You about gave me a panic attack at 17:45!!!!

In my opinion its way easer to use nail gun instead of screws to pin the brace when leveling the walls. Way less risk in loosing level than using screw driver, atleast thats the way i have always done it. Also being one guy maybe you could build the walls in place? Set the floor plate, corner studs,top plate then install studs. You will have to be toenailing the studs insted of end nailing which is stronger anyhow. Sorry i couldnt help my self from attempted to interfere. I figure if he will take advice from his clone maybe he will listen to me? I enjoy your content!!!

Big @Thecrazyframer energy ;)

Remember that snow fall in the winter might block your door if it is on the side. Our mountain cabin gets 3 feet of snow in the winter and there is a huge cornice hanging off the eves if the roof. Cheers !

Thanks

Well you usually plan doors and windows as your framing the building.

Ah yours is going to be similar shape to mine. I did 12 ft walls with 12/12 roof. 8ft bottom floor and leaves a nice top floor with about 3.5ft wall.

I guess tractor isn’t for heavier work when alone 🤣

Fighter jets!! 🤣

I like to watch you build but with less talking

A "mansard roof" might have been a solituion

please put a fire escape window in loft

That snake is a sub-species of North American Racer. I’m not sure you’re exact location but I think you are right in the area where it could be a southern or northern black racer. There are quite a few other types of racers around the country but only those two in the general area where I think you are. They are cool snakes. Totally harmless to humans. They are super fast, as their name indicates, and they will eat anything they can overpower including other snakes - even venomous ones. Pretty cool you put some tin down 👍 There is no telling what you’ll find out there.

The scaffolding might make for a nice treehouse or outlook for kids! Also, why didnt you build tiny walls on top of the existing walls?

For fire safety, won't you want two doors?

Why did you do two sills on the sides and only one on the end? Just curious. I’m going to be building a camp soon.

I know this is a late comment but let me tell you G I would keep the mountain view all windows that would be the bomb the side doors great idea straight shot to the pooper LOL.
