You guys are not only great at building houses, your in front of and behind-of camera skills are also amazing. Very entertaining to watch. I'm doing some building (sheds and barns) on my own property in my free time, but I'm not a craftsman...which I really regret. I love working wtih wood and also with concrete and the physical labor outside, especially when the weather is nice. In my next life, I'll be a craftsman and build some nice houses, with a nice crew. =)

@@fireskorpion396 which is generally far longer than what the person paying for it's construction needed so it's fine. It's not a flex to build something 10000x times stronger than it needs to be, it's just bad engineering. Good engineering is building what you need with enough padding to avoid trouble, and thus costing only what's necessary. It's a huge waste of money to build something that'll last a thousand years, or even a few hundred. No one wants to waste that kind of money. American houses are built just fine; your brick houses are huge wastes of money, your money, that won't benefit you at all, but someone 300 years later. Absurd.

After helping design and build buildings and houses for 52 years, I am amazed you guys put raw wood supports surrounded by dirt. Even con crete is a bad idea. My suggestion is to pour a base such as a minimum 12" diameter concrete with a Simpson base plate adapter and bolt in the concrete. The Simpson base plate has an internal galvanized U-shaped plate that raises the bottom of the wood post up about 1/2 inch above the base, and helps prevent rotting. Based on your work I'm sure you know this.

This is so interesting! I live in Germany, in a wooden house as well. Not a traditional one, but a modern, timber frame construction one. However, the walls are easily three times as thick, and the floor joists are not 1x12 like in this house, but something along the lines of 4x12 (although the spacing isn't as tight), just to give one example. Seems like we like to overbuild over here, or you like saving money a little too much.

I like how you did all aspects of the build minus electrical and the fact your a family of builders quality builders at that. My grandfather started picking my brother up in the summer when he was 10 years old he worked all day every day during summer break he made great money learned everything he knows today but even better got to spend all that time with grandpa sometimes they would cut out early to do some fishing and everyday grandma made lunch he was lucky he was a boy girls didn't get to go in those days. My grandfather was a great builder never cutting corners the houses he did are all over and still standing strong.

This was an interesting insight into building a house. It’s different to how they are built here in the UK as we tend to build the outer walls out of breeze blocks and a layer of bricks. The inner walls are built differently, with metal instead of wood. Then it is plaster board to finish the walls. I remember joining my dad of the work site when I was younger and really enjoyed watching this house being built.

My grandparents had a house like this. The BIG problem, is that the hillside slides out over the years and eventually undermines the foundations. You get these big cracks that grow wider and wider, it's quite scary to see. You really want to spend the extra money to stabilize the build site, including deep downhill pilings and terracing, if you aren't planning on just burning the place down when you are too old to live there anymore.

@@derschmeske3618 LOL Sounds like I bruised your little ego. You are really VERY insecure aren't you? It is not 100% at all that the building will move even a little bit. In fact, I think the building will be just fine for hundreds of years. Forest fires, however, are a common and even frequent natural occurrence brought on by a simple lightening strike; burning millions of acres in forests EVERY YEAR. Once they start, almost nothing can stop them. That forest will burn several times in years to come. You have the right to your opinion, just as you have a right to be a rude ass hole that you so obviously are. That is the only thing that is 100%.
