    I absolutely love how the garden is coming along. IT is so satisfying to pick and eat what you have frown. Re using cable ties, because they are single use plastic I thought I would say that my husband uses soft wire to tie up this sort of thing in the garden and they can be reused many times.

    Having had to deal with homesteaders on "abandoned land" a word of caution. Don't assume that land not in use you can homestead.

    • @CampOutWest
      @CampOutWest Před dnem

      The land was abandoned after the old owner passed away 12+ years ago and the land had been left empty and overgrown ever since. We bought it legally from a family member that was left it in a will

    The cabin is looking great, I love how much love you're putting into it, not one corner has been cut or job made easier for convenience, keep it up and you'll have something spectacular 😁 I built a shoffice (shed/office) and I definitely can't say as much love was put in, but it still stands so I must have cut the right corners 😅😅

    Regarding the shower rooms maybe think of moving the Wc away from the cubicle and basin next to the cubicle. One reason is the loo roll will then be able to hang on the Wall to the right of the WC also its more hygienic regarding “splashing” from the pan not going all over the glass in the cubicle. I’m a plumber by trade and I’ve been doing bathroom for nearly 20 years. Reach out if you need help I have a VW crafter so I can be self sufficient whilst giving you guys a hand. X

    That shot where John was using the flail mower he created a wonderful path through the meadow. I was like 'no please stop there!' it looked like a nice pathway through your land amongst the wildlife. I understand you need to control it but wanted to just say you have a lovely plot of land there.

    For future window installations. When using the wedges to hold them square to the frame, orient them so that the mounting screw goes through them. This way, they can't shift at any time.

    Why, why, why do some many CZcams "builders" of the amateur kind not know about correct lifting methods? Not with the back, use the legs. Torn rhombus, herniated disks, bulging disks. Poor lifting practices lead to really bad issues when you get older. Trust me, I know. Manual handling is imortant.

    John and Emily, the window details. In general it's a good process you have done, but a few details will cause you problems once you move in. I don't want to pull your efforts apart on here,so have you a email address? I will then run through and give you the details and drawings if required to rectify. Preparations are going well for the land drainage, look forward to seeing the progress.

    • @CampOutWest
      @CampOutWest Před 3 dny

      @@pauldixon4810 happy for you to share your advice on here ☺️ we are complete beginners so know we have alot to learn but to note the windows aren't finished yet - they have one more tape to go on the outside on top of everything. We will also be adding a metal sill to the outside which will again help with water run off (our metal cladding company is making them match the cladding and we will be closing it all in, adding another layer of protection with our metal cladding and flashing etc). On the inside we will also be adding insulation/expanding foam in the gap before sealing it in with its backing tap that came in the kit

    • @pauldixon4810
      @pauldixon4810 Před 3 dny

      @CampOutWest well what can I say to that, apart from spot on. You are covering pretty much all the concerns. The only additional advice I would offer is something we fail many installations on, which is the fixing straps. These should be angled down towards the exterior around 10 degrees. The straps being metal are prone to thermal bridging and condensation. If they are not angled out the moisture starts to wick through the interior reveals causing damage and mould patches. Insulation packed around the voids is better than using expanding foam on your type of build, as it will allow the seasonal movement to happen unrestricted and less likelihood of stress damage. Otherwise well done, the tape system is still relatively new and you seem to have mastered the concept.
