Building an Off Grid Cabin for Free to Save Money - Woodstove & Pallet Wood Bed
Vložit
- čas přidán 26. 08. 2024
- The Off Grid Pallet Wood Cabin is really developing now that the roof and Front Porch are done. Now it is ready to have the Woodstove put in to keep the Tiny House warm in the cold winter months. We also use more free recycled Pallet Wood to build a raised bed in the one-man Cabin. Using the stove we boil water for soup and cook up some food on the stove. Closing the door on the Cabin it got really warm and next time we hope to put a thermometer inside to track the temperature.
There are still plenty of jobs to do though. We need to chink the walls, perhaps with a primitive style of moss and clay, although there isn't much of that around so we might use materials from our garage. We also need to fill in any holes in the roof, add a chair to the porch and a small chair and table in the Cabin. It is now ready for me do some overnighters in and I'm really looking forward to this.
Thanks to all who have watched this Primitive Cabin build by father and son. It's been a great Wilderness Project so far and we have done it all for free to save money. An awesome DIY project!

Mate you're Dad is having the time of his life building that with you
More than anything,what I like most about this project is that it is a dad&son story in which I see a happy family saving wonderful memories together.
Very true, its times like these that you can look back on with fond memories.
Ya that’s what family is for
bro sen mi ekledin turce subtitle i Guzel olmus :)
How can anyone dislike this .I love the interaction with your dad .Respect to you both .
I absolutely LOVE this series.
When you're done with the cabin, BUILD MORE STUFF WITH YOUR DAD.
Good job the both of you.
tocov safe
tocov I liked it when he had his mate(s) AND his dad but their all great
It isn't a PROPER cabin WITHOUT BOOKS!!!!! That your Dad went to the trouble to make a corner bookshelf (and the fact that he has caught and prepared squid for your dinner on several occasions - amid cups of mulled wine), tells me he is a man of ultimate refined taste. This is 'roughing it' at it's finest - hats off!!
Nice, especially working with your Dad. Lost mine to cancer in 2002, so enjoy all the moments you can while you’ve still got him. 👍
Loving that hot water stove attachment! Your dad is the man, love his wit. "The man is in control of the family thermostat." Tell it to my kiddo. Ha ha. Side note... 8 ft x 5 ft is just about the size of a jail cell in the US.
Seth Moomey
Don't give the inmates any ideas, lol
Where do you buy the attachment
I am the man in our family, I wear the trousers. But my wife tells me which ones to wear. And she controls the thermostats. Always upwards. It's an ongoing thing.
Recycled pallet wood - Free
Nails and Bolts - Free
Sheet metal roof - Free
Time spent with Father - PRICELESS that means you don't need a Mastercard at all
Me as the video progressed: Is that a stove? That's a nice-looking stove. Oooh, that's a really nice-looking stove. I like this stove. Ooooooooh, it's an even nicer stove than I previously thought. Yeah, I want this stove. I really want this stove. Can I get this stove? I can get this stove. This is an incredible stove. All hail the stove. The stove will be the savior of us all.
Seriously what is this stove1?>
HauntedShadowsLegacy I was exactly the same I'm very impressed it even comes with an oven! now that's even more impressive.
It's called a gstove 😁
The 'g' stands for 'god'.
It is the Chuck Norris of stoves! I want one as well!
Wow, I’ve absolutely loved this series so far, the way you’ve edited it together and the peacefulness of watching it, you’ve done so so well. Thanks for putting this out there for us to see!
Quite honestly the best Dad of all time. He gets the marketing, has the personality, is a cool as any 20. Year old with the skills to pay the bills. An absolute legend.
I love this. I've both laughed and cried. The father reminds me so much on my own father who has passed away. He kept everything in case it would come in useful. No matter what we needed he could find in his shed. He kept all the nuts, bolts, screws etc. in jars and tubs and he could turn his hand to anything. I have subscribed to your channel.
I love how your dad laughed when he nailed the support railing you were holding to the rail. So cute!!! 😊😊😊
You have inspired me to build a much needed tool shed on my property
homeofmyown awesome! Glad to hear
I love watching you guys. Your dad reminds me of my dad. He used to make us kids straighten old nails to use again! He also would dig around in the garage and find 'stuff' to use instead of buying things. They are a generation of original thinkers. The food makes my mouth water late at night when I'm watching also.
Such a talented man is your Dad. Loved the way he curled up the rope to put it away after he took it off the wood bundles. Also Mike, you do a really great job of narrating the videos, you are awesome.
Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people came here the same way I did; CZcams had this in the suggested videos for Primitive Technology. Of course, I've stayed for the high quality content. *Thumbs up*
To share what you do to the world is not easy. I realise the other day i spend hrs view your channels. I like to thank you for the uploads during 2017 and i wish you all the best for 2018. I look forward to what the channels wil bring. Many many thanks.
Father and son time together priceless don't think i seen his son checking Facebook one time .
You are lucky to have such an awesome Dad and Dad is lucky to have you . Fathers and Sons should do what you guys do . Love your camp .
Really been enjoying these videos you have made myself want to go out camping and building stuff like this thank you and keep up the good work :)
Jack ghost thanks Jack
You guys surely ROCK!!!
What you guys are doing, reminds me of in my early forties. I bought a house, and put a new roof and stuff on it.
After that money was short, and my dad, who has gone now, and myself decided to extend the front of the old shed and make the rest waterproof. We just used recycled materials from the scrap pile from the house.
It was the best time we had together....problem solving and doing it as a team. I recomend this sort of thing to any father and son
I love watching these with you and your dad. Your dad is a very amusing fellow, but even better is that you both seem to get along so well and are good to each other. Cheers.
Started watching this series today....totally hooked!
Watched quite a few of Graham's vids on TA Fishing in the past and recognised him straight away. Keep em coming lads, I'm loving it!
I really enjoy your videos and your dad cracks me up. I hope the vids keep coming. Thank you for what you do!
It really makes me happy to see you and your dad working together, having a laugh, just good times with your loved ones that's all one can ask for! Tis the season
Love you guys
Love the comments about loving the father and son bonding instead of jealousy..
You guys are ace I watch all you videos I love your dad he’s amazing ❤️ love you guys
24hrs in the cabin!!!!
As always you two are what reality tv should be !!!! Very entertaining, fun, light hearted humour, and we also get great ideas of what we can do even in this day and age on the cheap. Thanks you two !!!! This cabin set up would be perfect for a ice shack here in Canada.
Enjoy the time you have together I lost my dad about 2 years ago and I miss the building projects we use to do together
Bob's your uncle.
😂😂😂😂😂
Needs a outside bench for the summer and table. Also bird boxes attach to cabin. Solar panel for roof to watch TA Fishing on tv. Also dog kennel is missing
60 SECOND BEACH FISHING nice ideas!!
So lovely to see a father/son duo that get along together.
I like the cabin, I think doing this build with your dad was a once in a life time event, bless you.
Your dad is hilarious.. loved the "jail scene
You two are an inspiration to many!!!! I'm lovin it. hope you had a Merry Christmas and have a Happy New Year..oh yeah I do have an uncle named Bob.😁
Robert, ...... who is your father's brother, ...... is your Uncle
It's so awesome to see a father and son working together keep up the good work love the videos
I just starting watching your videos. I really like your dad, he is super cool. So glad you get to spend time with someone you love. You have inspired me to spend more time with my dad. I think we may go hiking this weekend. PEACE.....
Cup a soup for the win!!!!
Astonishing stuff! Have been following this from the first episode and really impressed with what you guys have achieved! You Dad is clearly a knowledgeable and skilled chap and it's nice to see father and son work together on a project. Amazing that it's all recycled material too! Really good stuff mate :-)
Your dad is hysterical I love him so much !
Cabin looking great. Love the attachment for the wood burner. Great series and on a personal note; no music and no commentary really works. Just lad and dad working in unison. Very inspirational!
You should make a little table for the stove so you don't have to crouch down to refuel and a little table for plates and drinks to sit on that easily be put away. Outside you can make a small shed to keep coats, hats, and tools. Keep this project up, In MI we have about 2 ft of snow but I'm a similar shelter but bigger by a little and a wooden inside roof!
Im in MI also what town you live close to
Upper Pen.
A huge thumbs up, cant wait for the next episode. Also very interested in the hi tech stove. Best I've seen in many years. Keep up the excellent videos.
Omg I love your dad so much!!! You guys are going great! So happy I found this channel
loving the time you're spending with your old man! he's a great guy. reminds me of how it would be if i was doing this with my old man. he'd be doing most of the hammering, screwing and measuring while i'm standing there holding everything for him. ah dad's, gotta love em.
you can definitely tell he's having a blast doing this with you. and it's a great way to bond with your pops! memories like these last a lifetime and it's awesome to see you guys working together and having an awesome time coming up with ideas and making them!
YOU BOTH ARE AMAZING BUT YOUR DAD IS SOOOO FUNNY. HOW ABOUT AN OUTHOUSE?
If they cut a hole in the end of the bunk they could put a bucket under the bed so they dont have to go out in the night..........lol
You can collect and use sawdust to cover it so it doesn't stink. Not that it would in winter, but come spring/summer that stuff would be rank.
Theyre English, just get a Chamber Pot.
A porch is an open veranda, and a veranda is a closed porch.
Perfect way to spend your time with your dad....... how many dont want this.
Everybody would like to have a dad like yours.He is more of a friend than a dad.
this looks awesome!!!!!! you 2 should have a family celebration when you put the last nail or screw in
great video guys loving the build so far, btw your dad reminds me of Bruce Forsyth lol
I love the dad's voice ! He sounds like he'd be a really good book reading voice . Lol I don't know why but I love his accent the most .
You have done a wonderful job with your project. Watching the two of you together is the biggest treat.
Haven't even watched it yet and I know it's gonna be TA
TA means totally amazing right?
MathieuLantagne you bet it does!
looking good guys, would be a shame to use chemical foam though, any old rags and moss seems more in keeping, carry on caulking ! Happy new year fellas.
I cannot tell you how much I love watching your videos, so creative. Always keep your sense of humor!!!
you guys look like your having a blast.... I lost my dad a few years ago , and just wanted to say ...enjoy the time . when its gone its gone. i enjoy the build as well cool stuff
Why didn't you make the bed a "bunk" bed so you could sleep two if you had to
good idea,maybe an upper that could be dismantled easy and stored under the lower bunk.
Jim Krueger that cabin just isn’t enough room for 2 people
Jim Krueger we thought about it but things would be super tight for the top bunk and really we wanted to make it a one man cabin, although two could still sleep in it, one would just have to sleep on the floor...
It could have been done, take a look at a submarine, Most efficient use of space I've ever seen.
You should board the walls up with cardboard for insulation and a bit more sound cancelling
Doesn't get much better than a father and son having fun doing things together. You will remember it for a life time. Keep having fun.
it is so good to see you and your dad working toghter and she how well you get along it is awesome.
Yep now you have a place to live in case your women kick you out. And it would sleep 2 comfortably is you made bunk beds.
Putting tin behind the stove would also make a big difference I would bet. And if you chinked all the cracks that little stove would run you out of there on the coldest days.
Great job...and all for free.
your lack of washers is disturbing
Greg Armstrong oh and dryers too?
They have a lot of nuts though and that's what counts! Especially Pop. He went on a fishing trip with the guy who wrote Deliverance and tells his son on CZcams. Now that takes a some nuts!
I really enjoyed this series. I don't have a dad so it's nice to sometimes see a good dad in action.
Brilliant Father and son together, thats what it's all about !
EPISODE 5 - We still haven't spent any money! Using reclaimed pallet wood, recycling nails where possible and using screws and bolts that we have at home. In this episode we build a raised Pallet Wood bed, install a woodstove plus more!

Hi how r u how do u not have more subs u r the best!!!!
🙃
Your daddy is ridiculously cool! It would be cool if he started his own channel!)
+Алексей Чернозубкин (Al Chernozubkin)
He has it's called TAFishing.
Ive noticed the last couple of videos have had some editing issues.
We're is your dad going to sleep
He needs to turn that bed into bunk beds!
I'm enjoying this series very much. Y'all are funny together - wish I'd had such a good relationship with my dad! I'm fascinated with all the problem solving, creative use of free materials, skills, and of course the cooking. Squid! On a campfire! Who knew!?! Thank you for sharing this with us!
I'm truly impressed by the quality of work you two have done in such a short time period. This is the sort of project that I imagine the Boy Scouts would be interested in for their qualifications.
The reason we pronounce things differently is you all speak proper English and we butcher the English language here in the states. Lol.
Yup especially down here in the south.
Apparently you've never heard someone from Lancashire speak "English". Ask an Italian how to say pasta, and tell me if the Americans or the Brits are closer to proper pronunciation. Anyway, the English language is already a butchering of Middle German with a bunch of Latin influence, hence the inconsistent grammar. Also, the "southern" Appalachian American accent is closest to what the first wave of European immigrants would have sounded like i.e. English.
Dont worry its all English
In the South we speak Southern and Country. And we also say Y'all. I like our Southern accents.
depends on if you ask an American Italian or a British Italian 30E. Lancashire is more English than that restricted, constrained speak the nonces in Westminster flap with.
I am enjoying watching you two so very much. Thank you for allowing me to "dream" and "learn"!
i’ve been thinking of building my own cabin out of recycled materials on my dad’s property so that when I am of age and i’m not quite ready to buy my own house, I can still live by myself and be close to my family. Your videos have given me a lot of information on how to save money and repurpose materials! i really enjoy this channel! thank you both!
You better enjoy and cherish your days with your father. This is memories that will never forget
Be it a simple cabin or a shed,I love the idea's you have come up with. and building it with free materials well that's just great. The wife may not like the idea bt this next summer I plan on a simular shed for my side yard. And a word to the wise. Stay close to your Dad , time is short and bonds like yours last for ever.
When I was a kid, my father always had me straightening nails and reusing them and nuts and bolts and screws. He had big tins of assorted fasteners. To this day, I always pick up screws and bolts I find while walking around and making my own big tin of all sorts. Cherish this time with your pops!
I'm envious! Take every opportunity to do projects together. My dad has been gone since 2013 and I still miss him every day. Have a happy New Year and keep the vids coming!
Dad's a fine actor. Well impressed.
Hello!I got to missing you guys after 2 weeks and I am back after this'n'that. Now I have some free time to "hang-out" with you two.I really appreciate the easy camaraderie of you two, it kind of reminds me of my father, who taught me carpentry & other handyman skills. He's been gone for 8 years & we miss him.Meanwhile, life is mighty fine here in SW Virginia, USA, near the Blue Ridge Mountains. We got 1 & 1/4" of snow this morning, which will probably melt tomorrow or the next day! Hopefully whatshisface up in the world-capital-wannabe won't screw up our planet too much, and we'll all still be here for many years to come!Happy Trails...
Cannot wait to learn how the Pallet Palace compares to Badger's Rest as a cold overnight camp! Neither place is particularly insulated as yet and each will have its own charms. Your Dad's touches to the bed just about knocked me out of my desk chair: a headboard...and finials, yet.
i wish i had a dad to do this with. you two are amazing.
Your Dad literally MADE your bed. That’s awesome!!!
Man, your dad just loves this stuff! Good on you guys, wish my dad could get into something like this.
I was building a treehouse with my father not so long ago, maybe that's why CZcams kept trying to recommend me this video series. You're lucky yours hasn't been vandalised so far, mine has!
Thanks you blokes, for reminding me of when my dad and I had our Projects :-) he's gone now, :-(
but it's great to see the friendship again with a common happy interest, what ever it is well done
You should give your dad the cabin. It would be a nice gift. 👍🏼
Really enjoying this build. I work with my dad & he tends to run the show much like yours. Always a lot to learn if you listen hard enough. Lovely!
Very cool and perfect size. Sweet that you have that time with your dad, carry on.
So far you have made a wonderful tutorial on building a small cabin, and other items. Thank you for your dedication and love for the outdoors. Keep on going Mike, you and your dads youtube channels are TOPNOTCH!!!!!
Everything done by you and your father is always so darn awesome, wow great time's! Thanks for sharing.
Doug Bucher thanks Doug
Love this cabin, Mike! You and your dad work well together! Can’t wait for the next video.
This is my favorite project that you've done so far. Between the ingenuity of the idea itself, and the time spent with your dad, (who is hilarious), I love every bit of it.
Can't wait to see your first camping video involving the cabin!
Jacob Sharp thanks Jacob, we have a few more episodes coming out first before the overnighters begin
So glad I found this series of videos, and your channel. I have wanted to build a cabin just like the one you did on some property of mine. And I'm American, and like your accents. It reminds me of the fond times I had with the British soldiers in Afghan. Cheers!
15:10 hey dad what a cool thing to do with your son. i have 2 daughters but no boys. they LOVED being outside and doing stuff, camping, hiking, fishing in MN...
I would definitely put some tin on the floor and walls around the wood stove. That stove is little but it is really close to your wall. Your first really cold night in there, when you have the stove roaring for 8-10 hours straight and the front door closed, you will be surprised how hot that wood wall near the stove will get. I'd hate to see you lose your little cabin, or worse. Another option would be some brick or stone. You would actually improve the performance of your stove a bit more if you built a little stone or brick hearth under it, because the masonry doesn't just protect against fire, it absorbs heat and then radiates it back out slowly, which helps to keep the temperature even.
This worries me too, I have a rocket stove outside next to a pallet wood fence, well it was next to the fence until i realised that the fence was bubbling as the moisture in it started to vaporise, those little wood burners can churn quite a lot of heat out and the flash point of pallet wood is only about 300 Celsius, with good ventilation into the firebox the stove walls can hit about 600c in about 1/2 an hour.
trustbuster23 thanks for the tip, we will look into a solution
Just a bit of old tin roof with an air gap between the stove and the walls is a simple solution, maybe some slate or a bit of tin on the floor too, I know you are trying to not spend any money on this project so if you can find some clay on the property you could daub the wall and make a pad under the stove.
I love how you don't do let's play style voiceovers over EVERY SINGLE THING YOU DO. It's much nicer just hearing the sounds of nature, the tools and all that.
lovely to see, father and son bonding. enjoy the vids keep them coming.
Hi Mike. I really like this series. To build such a cool Cabin together with your father is a great experience for sure and incredibly valuable for the relationship. The oven is fantastic and make the cabin very romantic. Only the canopy did not eat the beautyness with the big spoon :-D Greetings from Switzerland
