    365 days I crewed on sailboats from San Diego, USA all the way down to Panama, stopping in Mexico and Costa Rica. After Panama crossing the Pacific Ocean to New Zealand stopping at islands like the Marquesas Islands, French Polynesia, Tonga and Fiji
    45 days I traveled through New Zealand from the Northernmost point to the Southernmost point, then
    100 days I traveled by motorbike through Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, then
    365 days I traveled in my self-built campervan from Kyrgyzstan to Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan, then
    365 days I traveled with this van through Iran and Pakistan, then
    180 days I built an off-grid log cabin in the woods in Spain, then
    180 days I restored an old sailboat in Guatemala, then
    180 days I traveled with this sailboat from Guatemala to Honduras, Cuba, Jamaica, Bahamas, Turks and Caicos and the Dominican Republic

    Nice work! And definitely a challenge on your own. I have found the cordwood shrinks in time and separate from the mortar and in time you can push them right through. You can secure them really easily in the building stage by driving short nails half way in along the length of the log. Put in several nails on all sides of a log ,sticking out 2 or 3 cm and they will grab the mortar...forever!

      There is much simpler way. Put into the mortar any kind of fiber and it will not crack of it was properly mixed.

Your work is amazing, so much preparation and care is admirable. I hope Rob Roy could see this. Continue the good work.

  • @alvaroschudeck957
    @alvaroschudeck957 Před 3 lety

    Just a suggestion: Wet the base concrete first and try to find an adhesive bridge between the log and the mix you're doing, may be try some different mix, pure cement or cement and lime on just the very thin surface of the log, that will make a much better union between the log and the other mixture you are using. (also wet the log, a little bit to avoit the wood extract water from the mix).

    lifting the frame (window): just lift it horizontal - in that way that you can set the downward edge onto the ment platform, than it is a little bit easier to erect the windows frame. But the rope still good as backstop

    working alone takes more time but not impossible! my words. bro I would do it the same way. may take a log or two then do the same technique with the rope and half way you can safe the frame on the logs take a break and then pull it up entirely. much love. keep on going. how are you going to do your waste water? can recommend a biodigestor.

    I know you’re out boating the great big ocean now. I have a few questions though. Any word on the cabin build are the restrictions being taken care of? Or still in limbo? always I would love to know in exact detail on how you made your mortar mix for foundation, like mix ratio, and product being used. That worked for you. And same with the cord walls.
