If I were you, I would drop two shipping containers, stacked at the back of your container storage shed. Here’s why. You can also put a full water drain system underneath it with catch basins and a water storage tank that can be pumped back up to your top tank when needed. If you were to do the stacked containers, not only could you put an inside staircase to your rooftop deck, (which could use a higher cover to protect it against the elements) It could also seal the back of your shed to provide three sides against the elements for working on equipment, keeping wood dry, etc. and provide more storage for needed heavy equipment tools. You could also carry your deck around the side too(bonus) Just my thoughts.

I think you need to make a treehouse! Big enough to sleep guests. And of course with a slide to get down. An alternative: You need a secret hideaway, a secret cave to retreat to, of course with a pool, halfway in and out… But if you need a small(er) project… Oliver needs a place to play. So some nice playground equipment would be nice to be able to have his own playground. Together with a relaxing bench so you can sit next to him…

I think you should do something you’ve never done before and something you need. How about a large stone retaining wall behind the shop, then extend the shop backwards to create an additional space for more shop space and for a bedroom above it.

Great job you guys.. I also look forward to Sundays when you release a new episode. I am 74 years old and a jack-of-all-trades. My brother was a plumber, my BFF is an electrician and his brothers are all carpenters, so I have learned all I know from them. You do need to build Oliver his own room, oorrrrr build yourself a larger room and let Oliver have the smaller existing room. If you are not able to go out with an "addition" than go up. The well is a good idea, rent an digger with a "loooonger" boom and dig the existing well deeper and wider so you have a large reservoir which overcomes the slow refresh rate and extended dry spells. Then use a series of "concrete perforated crocks" to create an underground cistern. Good luck and God bless. Regards Wayne

I upgraded my wood stove a couple years ago to a Blaze King - Sirocco 20 in my on grid remote house in Northern British Columbia. It’s one of their smaller models because my house is only 1100 sq feet. As part of the remodel I also reinsulated the the whole house. Blaze King stoves are super efficient and of a superior air tight design with a catalytic reburner to keep the chimney super clean. They are quite expensive at +3000$ Cdn - but I went from burning 10 cords of firewood per year in the house to burning less than 3 cords. You only have to load it 2 or 3 times a day when burning it 24hrs and you only have to clean the chimney a couple times a year. It was well worth the upgrade!

@williambryant5946 it's an all steel and glass door with awkward leverage caused by off center weight. The design has been around along time, but carefully engineered, including fall arrest systems. Riley has banked his safety on a hinge at the top and two rollers at the bottom, and two cables, all burdened with a lot of forces fighting against them, and I doubt there is an arrest system in place. Long story short, if anything fails, the entirety is crashing down rather than rolling from an overhead track. This door worries me.

Remember Oliver will be sneaking off to climb things around home and you want to make everything as safe as possible , because every parent, no matter how careful and attentive loses track of an exploring toddler for a few seconds now and then. ) for easy access to your container shed rooftop deck.

an interesting and relaxing video, though I did play it back at 75% speed to allow my less than perfect hearing time to catch up. I did take the where and who am I test. I found that I lead a huge range of really interesting activities, none of which I actually know about, such as my musical career, sadly I am close to tome deaf, so that is not me. However, this was all about your build and what a job you have made of bringing this to life. I am not sure how long Oliver's tent will suffice for him, children have a disconcerting habit of growing, really fast at certain stages of life, and if Mk II arrives, thing might get tight, tent or no tent. I must pay my respect to Courtney's skill with all thing construction, you have the perfect feather light touch on the controls, without which I am sure progress would have been far more limited. So, continue to enjoy your life, flattening the challenges and keeping your family in comfort, while minding your own business.

Since you have a wet spot on the property. It might be worth trying to drill a lateral well. Back in the day around here, drilling laterals was the cool thing to do. I built a cute little machine for doing it, many years ago. I made it 350ft back into the hill. Unfortunately I never got a working well. I got side tracked on other stuff. But I think you could make a machine in your shop. They are pretty simple, just a spindle and a winch for the travel. It would give you another unique item to do in your shop for your channel. I bet you could get some water out of your wet spot in 100ft or less.

I always appreciate how everything you guy build is so functional, and with a purpose on improving your lives. That said... The desktop image on Courtney's monitor, and the front grill hanging on the post in your shop has me wondering if you might be planning on building yourself a vintage off road truck of some kind? (you know... just for fun!) Whatever it is, I will gladly be watching.

That was Courtney’s old Jeep. She mentioned it in one of their videos a long time ago. But wouldn’t be surprised to see more awesome builds in the future.

Welp (speaking from experience) you're gonna need to expand your living arrangements. Every new child (we have had six) has forced us to rethink our living space. Sooner or later, Big O will need his own space. Then (assuming you welcome more young 'uns) more space after that. At the moment, you have no real "living" room, only a short space for a couch. Amazing how you have compacted all those practical amenities in such a small space. I am rather impressed by all the things you two have accomplished in such a short time, and I must say, your channel has worked its way up to the top of my list. Best of all is seeing how Courtney takes all these things with a radiant smile.

Young Oliver will eventually need his own bedroom. That's just the reality of "Tiny House" living, raising kids (even just one) multiplies your space needs. I'm sure you two good people will solve this task with loving imagination, skill and your boundless energy :)

Thanks for the recap. I have been loving your journey since you were in the overlander. I can not thank you enough for all the joy of watching you two ( now three!) solve problems and build an independent life. I am going to try to find the time to rewatch the last three years. What a great trip it has been!

I love what you two have accomplished. I was looking forward to the house tour, and love it. 😊 Your little guy is precious and it'll be cool when you add on to the house to give him his own space. I can't wait to see what you have in mind you two. Looking forward to next week. 😊❤

aw man another video that somehow makes me cry. I’m so happy for you guys and what y’all have accomplished together. This is my boyfriend and mine dreams. His name is also Riley haha but seriously just amazing what you guys have done. We live in Mississippi and he’s inherited land but we’re both still so young but definitely going to work towards an off grid lifestyle and self sufficient when it comes to our food.

OLIVER! I don't know if he always does this but I noticed that when you were holding him, he wasn't holding on to you. He's just like leaning back into it. It reminded me of my son who did the same thing (he's 42 now). It used to annoy me that he didn't hold on because it made it so much harder to tote him anywhere. Thanks for the great tour of your house. Really lovely!

Just curious. We also have a baby, about 1.2yrs old now. (by the way kudos y'all are troopers juggling this with a baby. My wife and I can relate! 😂) You're going to eventually have to expand and add another room or two for Oliver and whatever other kiddo down the road. Would you just wall in the office and convert that? Or extend the back out with another bathroom? Just from our experience you'll want that separation sooner than later. Anyways, you guys rock.

I am amazed at the fact you only have one bedroom in all those buildings. Also concerned that the workshop is beneath your home because of fire risk and noise. Have you considered walling in some of the new equipment shed and insulating it as a workshop? Do you need a double-height workshop that you can use year round? It seems the most logical solution would be to extend the floor of your home into some or all of the upper part of the existing workshop.

So for the Easter eggs on building more (if that’s what you mean)? I think…. 1) fix the whole around the pole in the office 2) add stairs and rails to the roof top deck where the equipment lives along with a solar panel half roof (like at the house) to have enough power for the winter months. 3) a space for Oliver 4) fix the generator 5) complete shallow well for permanent use That may have covered the ongoing lists 😉😂
