    Now this is the way you show someone building a Log Cabin!! Laying out everything picture perfect, sweating, lift, and pulling those heavy Logs! A very youngman who knows how to work hard, and I wish, that I could have had a couple of thode hamburgers! My Hat is off to you! Great Video! I would recommend this Video!😊😊😊

    big love to you mon. I built my own log home with me hands too. Its been a few years, now I am starting to think about how rad it all is. how the hard work paid off. like bob mackie said in his book, nobody will see the tree when it falls but you. nobody will know how hard it was but you. this is your thing, and they cannot take this away from you for I ever.

    I am loving your videos and they make me wish I was 20 years younger. I would have skipped nursing degree and masters degree. I had always been drawn to wood working and carpentry but in my younger years it never dawned me all of the things you could do with it. What a blessing to have the skills you have and kudos to your dad for getting you started when you were younger so that you would be able to figure things out like how to build a log cabin later in life! I wish I could hire you to build one for me and all my dogs and cats! 🥴

    Very clever and handy idea to incorporate rocks in the concrete pillars! And very interesting to see how you made them, I have a wooden house too and will need to re-build the entrance parts from scratch, including the foundation/pillars on which the wooden part then stands. Your video definitely gave me some inspiration!

    Matthias, new sub! You have a great channel, well done! What an honorable job and journey to build your own log cabin, Bravo! I can see you are one strong man with a lot of grit the way you move those logs around. You will be very fit once you are done building. What species of tree are you using? Praying mantis are my favorite bug! I live on west coast of US in Washington state we to have praying mantis. One acre of land here goes for $50-$60,000 USD insane! Matthias keep up the great work, awesome job! Can't wait to get caught up watching your beautiful videos. This video alone has over 94,000 views that is insane never seen that before👏😁

    • @MattJacob1
      @MattJacob1  Před 9 měsíci +2

      Thank you! The species of tree is fir. Praying mantises are very cute bugs 😁 I live in Europe in a small country called Croatia. Those are high prices. However, when it comes to the coastal part of building plots in Croatia, we only have slightly lower prices.
      94K views is nothing today. There are videos with several million views. But I still have to say that I am extremely grateful for all 94K!
      Thanks again for the nice comment. I appreciate it 😁

    For strength don't put in big rocks and for proper weight distribution make the foundation blocks pyramid shaped or build a footing. They most likely won't topple over, unless that is a wet area certain times of the year.

    Nice Job, young man! Where in Sweden are you? I live in South Florida, since 1985, but I am from Rovaniemi, Arctic Circle , Finland. my Grand father, and his brothers, they were called " Laukkanen Handyman Group", they build more than 30 Schools, and other big buildings around Arctic Circle, and most of those buildings are still there, nice and straight. One of them, Pohtimolampi, or Bear Lodge Hotel now, is close to Rovaniemi, about 30 km North, I always stay there couple nights, in Luxory Cabins, Main Hotel Building was built 1954, and big Sauna building, First 1952. You should check it out, my Grand Father and his Father, Brothers, they were Master Log Builders, and also mainly did only hand tools, they had Chainsaw though later years. Going to Finland for Christmas now, and planning to stay again couple night in Pohtimolampi, my own SUmmer Cottage is only about 7 kilometers away from there, at Ounasjoki River, in a small Village, called Sinetta, I was born and grew up there. I will be following your nice , hard build, Good Luck from Sunny South Florida, and Merry Christmas too =)

    Personally I'd be using a chain saw... could be electric if you wanna keep the noise down but they cut wood a LOT cleaner and quicker than splitting stuff by hand. If you can't handle a chain saw you really don't sport the mechanics to be doing this anyway. Yep I'd be using battery operated drills and saws as well. You can charge them all overnight wherever you happen to be staying on grid. My Makita stuff charges in about 20 min. You need to put a metal roof on that cabin once you get there. I also think you need a support at midpoint on those long logs as that decreases the corner support load by 50%. Retired contractor.
