Thank you! It takes work but is definitely worth it 😊💕

Thank you so much!😊💕

Not if the insurance costs more than the vehicle is worth😂😂

HVUE Vertical Chainsaw Mill... www.amazon.com/dp/B08HKBY9FH?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

We have 9 sapphire gems (the gray ones) and 5 black australorps. They get along well and are super layers. Very good natured too.

Yes, it’s easier to build and great for collecting water for the watering system. Hope you enjoy building it!

We live in Arkansas. The cabin is about 4 miles from lake Ouachita. It is almost completely surrounded by national forest, so you can’t build there anymore. Which is nice, it is a beautiful lake and you can camp on the shoreline or on the islands. 😊

Nice!! Hope you enjoy it, it has worked well for us!😊👍👍

We used southern yellow pine that were growing on our property. They are old growth, so most were about 60 years old. They have to be treated with a good wood preservative stain. We used Q8 log oil. We have a video on that too.

Glad it helped! We did the same thing the first time!😊

I see you already figured it out, but for everyone else, be sure the connecting cable is LOCKED before turning it on. It is a common mistake 😊👍👍

Yes, we have a small woodland mill. We have quite a few pine logs left over from building our log cabin and some that we got for free from a local tree cutting service. So yeah, why not?🤣🤣 You could definitely build a lighter weight version if you wanted. The clean out feature is great though. Just open the doors, put a wheelbarrow there and rake it out. Done in just a few minutes 😊Thanks for watching!

Thank you Paul!😊

Thank you Arthur!😊

It’s the only way to get certain types. There are no hatcheries near here. Other than buying from individuals. Even if you hatch them yourself, there can be losses due to them crowding together or other factors. Just facts of life.

Thanks Gary!

We have not posted much due to life issues. Lance just had a shoulder surgery so he is going to have a few months recovery time. And my dad who is 93 had a stroke and is bedridden. Mom is caring for him at home so she can’t do that alone. The joys of getting older😬Hope you and your family are doing okay 😊

Life does get in the way my mother died a few months ago . We have a cottage we didn't get there till August ,we were so busy with my mom. All the best to both of you.

It didn’t hurt it at all. In fact I left it in there for a few days. It washes up with soap and water. It washes out of your brushes nicely too. 👍

It is approximately 8 feet wide and 18 feet long. It would be just as easy to make it 20feet long but that would not fit our space. We used 10 foot boards for the rafters so there is an overhang on both sides.

Thank you so much!! We do love working together 😊 Thanks so much for watching, hope you have a great weekend😊

We are super happy with it! It is the easiest stain we have ever used and so far it is by far the best! It does take longer to dry, but that is actually an advantage as you don’t have to worry about overlap marks when you apply it. It soaks in rather than staying on the surface so you never have to worry about it peeling off. Another thing that we like is that it still allows the logs to dry so you don’t have to wait for them to dry completely before you stain them. We have friends that used a different product and they have had all kinds of problems with it. I think you will love it. One note…they have test samples of the different colors that you can try on your actual logs. Be sure and do that and wait the recommended 2 weeks or so as the color mellows out quite a bit as it dries. They will reimburse you the cost of the samples if you order the stain. Have fun building your cabin and stay safe!😊👍

@@natureartgirl thank you so much for replying. This was very helpful. We are gonna order some samples asap

We cut them ourselves. Most were smaller pieces we had left over from building our cabin.

Thanks Gerald! It was definitely a good workout 😂 We learned a lot and had a blast building it but we weren’t in any hurry to start another one 🤣

Yes, or it could be used for a cold frame. 😊👍

Thank you!😊

Thanks Mary Jane! It’s really fun to do. It’s crazy how well it works 😂😂

🤣🤣🤣👍

Hi! We probably won’t start any big projects for a while. Lance has to have shoulder surgery next month and that will take a good while to heal. Hopefully he will be able to get his strength back before too long. Thanks so much for watching!😊👍

@@natureartgirl Best wishes for the surgery operation! 😄👍

Of course i was joking abaut building another a log cabin.I realize that we are no longer anymore. Best wisches again. 👍

Hi! We don’t have plans for it right now, but it isn’t too hard to figure out from just watching the videos. Most of the measurements aren’t too critical. Just basically a big box with a roof. If we get plans drawn up, we will be sure to let you know 😊

Thanks so much Mira! We really appreciate your support over the last few years. Lance is having his 100,000 mile overhaul this year😂 Just had carpal tunnel surgery on both hands last month and shoulder surgery next month. When he recovers from that we will try to post more often. Hope you are well! 😊💕💕

@@natureartgirl estarei na torcida pra ele ter boa recuperação, e estreia em oração pra da tudo certo,ou melhor, já deu tudo certo...um abração pra vocês , e um afago pra seus filhos de 4 patas.

Thank you Fred!😊

Thank you!😊👍

Yeah thanks! We definitely had our doubts too. 😂😂 But a new set of French doors was $4000 so we decided to take a chance on it. After cutting a big hole in the side of our house we were kind of committed 😁😂

Thanks so much! We appreciate you watching and commenting!😊👍

Thanks! Better late than never 😂😂 It was something we both always wanted to try. When our work fell off during Covid we figured we would take advantage of the slow time. Enjoyed it. 😊Thanks for watching 👍

Thank you! We have been busy, but little time to edit out the videos 😂 we will try to get caught up when we get a chance. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment!😊💕

Sorry to hear that you have been sick! We hope you get to feeling better soon. Lance has been having some problems too lately so we haven’t posted much. Take care, and thanks again for watching!😊

Thanks Will!😊

Hey, thanks so much for watching and taking time to comment. We appreciate it!😊😁

😊👍👍

Thanks! It was a fun project 😊

Thank you! It sure brightens up our room! The more sunlight the better if I have to be indoors 😂😂 Hope you are doing well!😊👍

Thanks! Lance has been having some health problems lately. He’s doing somewhat better now. Had carpal tunnel surgery in both hands so he’s able to do a bit more already. He is going in for surgery next month for a torn rotator cuff, so that’s going to put him down for a bit. Hopefully he will get a good 100,000 mile overhaul and then be good for a few more miles!🤣🤣Thanks for your concern!💕

Hi Tom, yes, I think an old toothbrush would work perfectly for the small details! It would be easier to hold than the little brush I was using. Thanks for the suggestion!😊👍👍

Thank you Lynne! It was really a lot easier than I thought it would be. So much fun to see the crazy patterns those cheap little tools could make. I still can’t wrap my head around how it works😂😂 The hardest part was being patient enough to let it dry properly 😂👍

Thanks Bob! We missed hearing from everyone too!😊
