Hey Willie, nice to catch up back in the spring. Wish the circumstances were diff. Finally got around to checking out your vids. Love em! Tennon! Yaglou rocks! Paul G.

Save Barn!

Way to go, neighbor!

My dad turned me onto your channel and I’m glad to see you’re posting again. I’ve loved watching this property progress.

Your videos are extremely interesting and informative. Thank you for taking the time to go slowly over what you’re doing on video and posting. Much appreciated

That was extremely interesting. My condolences on your friend’s passing

This is very important to buold the knowledge base about the historic homes. I agree with you and live in a very similar home sans the heat pump. Zone 5-6 air source will be our direction but appreciate this video very much I’m one of those that repair lime plaster with actual horse hair etc

They knew what they were doing when they builkt thme and the old stuff can be fixed without gut renovations

Pete, I like Black Sabbath too.

Man, you guys are a hoot to watch and I’m shocked y’all still have your fingers 😂 Thanks for doing this work. It’s so important and most folks don’t have the patience. Your buddy is very skilled.

Imagine how much waste we could prevent if we all preserved the things we have. I'll never drive past an old mill again. Thanks for the education.

Great spotlight on Croghan Island Mill, explaining how it all works. I love that place! This is way better than HGTV.

This was Awesome, Willie! Well, they're ALL awesome.... looking forward to the next one!👍🏻👏🏻

Good to see you back. Looking forward to the Progress left to do.

thank you for all of this. Super interesting mill and great restoration on the door. Thank you for caring. Glad you're doing this.

I own a 1790’s historic colonial home in the Catskill Mountains and considered installing a geothermal system. I too don’t want to destroy the integrity of the home’s lath and plaster to insulate. The cost of the geothermal system was almost the cost of the home and wondered if it would pay for itself in the long run. It seems like it is worth it from your video. It’s just coming up with the money to install then reimbursed through tax credit.

Yaglou the hard-workin' carpenter, great job.

Have you metal detect the property yet. If not ill swing it with you

Amazing videos! Mike from Missouri

but now how did you re connect your basement floor weeping tile drain system , there may be drain tile around the outside as well you can still blow insulation in without removing the plaster and I would still do the attic floor that is most of the loss

I hate when guys play rock music in while working in such idyllic settings

Congratulations on the first geothermal historical house!! 👍

Amazing drain system!! One thing you can count on is water seeking level. Never bends. "Sea level" Now consider Oceans cover 2/3s of earth Willy .. 😜😃 Oh yeah!

You Sir, are my hero!! It breaks my heart to see old houses torn down and hauled off to the dump. The older building materials are far superior, and the old techniques are also superior. Modern builders should study the old ways and return to them, as their current methods build trash.

Make a house tour video!

Your videos are great. Cant wait for your next one!

Its amazing the technology that our ancestors used in their day as things were built to last. More people need to understand this in our current throw away society.

Need some more videos please.

Pete needs several apprentices to be able to continue the ability to do old school work on future buildings.

Hard Work good luck brother just subbed .

Watched all these videos so far. Fascinating stuff. Please stop referring to tenons as tendons. The are different things.

Beautiful! Very nice 😊

Beautiful! Very nice 😊

Great vids, would love to see more content and longer vids, Thanks

The old man knows what he's doing, along with the hard work.

Honestly no offense, but cell phone videos just dont cut it on youtube. I couldnt finish watching. Instead i watched a home restoration vid from someone else who used a decent camera. Im going to chk out your next video, hopefully you used a good camera through out that one. Again, no offense ment, just my observations.

I guess this was the only video you made of this house. 😫

Oh my goodness ! You and your guys are amazing ! God bless all of you ! The house is absolutely gorgeous ! Exceptional job !!! Wow you took my breath away lol... ❤❤❤

Hi, enjoying you video's. Man, you two are hard workers! ...you seem to get along well too.... lol. Are you going to post video's on the restoration of the house ? Keep up the good work, looks great, and its going to be wonderful.

No plumbing on electric? Who lives there?

If it's less money to restore it, I don't understand their reasoning either.

Two years on… I hope this buildings problems has a possitive outcome, meaning it is restored to it’s former glory. I am Dutch and living in the Netherlands. We have buildings going back to Roman times, may it be just a few stones. When something is gone, it’s gone for ever. Your country is still young. Buildings like these must be preserved for prosperity! They are your history! You owe it to the next generations. I am wishing you all the best and wisdom above all.

What about the t-shirt on Pete(?) escape from Dannemora? That must be swedish?

Aermotor windmills are so beautiful ♥!

My amazing cousin Peter Yaglou. RIP

A bit hard to watch unfortunately. Too shaky and zoomed in s had to give up. Shame as would have been interesting

The most incredible thing I've ever seen in my life

Peet is a do engineer.He can just get his degree 🎉I am from South Africa we build a stone house. I know quite a bit , have watched quite a bit of USA fixed uppers. Peet I do have a lot of respect man . Job we'll done. Cutting the bill shit and get the job done. Love it ❤
