More about me:
When I was 20 years old, I dropped out of college and said to myself that I will do what I really want and what I see meaning in. So I decided to build my dream log cabin, all by myself, in the middle of an off-grid bush.
After I left school, I went to work for a while to earn money for trees and hand tools. I spent all the money I earned and my savings on it. Thank God, I already owned the land I have - I got it from my dear parents as a gift and I also bought another part of the land with my own money.
I chose a log cabin for my home because I like it. I build it with the vision of living a simple and peaceful life in it. Having time is more important to me than having money. Of course, nowadays a person cannot live without money, but I would like to live in such a way that my expenses are not so high and thus reduce the need for money. I want to have time not only for myself, but also for my future wife and children. That's why I will try to build the most self-sufficient life possible, in which my own housing, in my case a log cabin, will be the heart of this system.
I chose the traditional method of building - using only hand tools because they are my favorite. There is beauty in simplicity.
Working with hand tools has several advantages: You are able to work off-grid, the entire set of tools you need can fit in one bag, there is better safety when you work alone, you don´t make too much noise when you´re working... so I enjoy it more and I believe you will too, while watching :)
My dear father is a carpenter. I remember that most of the things he taught me while working with wood were precisely while working with hand tools, which required the most attention and practice from me.
My father taught me how to work with wood from a young age, but I have no experience with building a log cabin, so I'm learning everything as I go, and I'm looking forward to what this experience will teach me.
It may not seem like it, but it was a big struggle to get this opportunity to be able to work on my dream, but I finally did it and for that I am incredibly grateful. I also started this CZcams channel where I share my entire journey, so if you are interested, you can check it out. There is no one behind the camera, so I do all the filming and editing myself. I would also be very grateful if you would support my journey by subscribing or sharing, if you want to.
Thank you for being here, I really appreciate it and I'm glad you're watching. I will try to make videos as best as I can, so that you get the greatest enjoyment from them.
Thank you all for your attention. Enjoy!

All the money that will be donated through PayPal will be invested back into the cabin.
Your parents and grandparents should be very proud of you. You obviously have an infinity with wood.
Not many would have the confidence to take on such a project. Particularly without taking advantage of “modern-day” tools!
I love the fact apart from the sound of you scraping the logs the viewer is treated to the beautiful song of a blackbird somewhere within the landscape. I look forward to following your epic journey❤️
Thank you. I appreciate it very much.
Im 16 years old and i also want to build a cabin like this in the future and live a self sufficient life
i love it when people actually show all steps in a project instead of just saying "I peeled some logs"
I have watched several videos on You Tube people peeling logs to make cabins But none are done as perfectly as you have done They are beautiful and once you have completed your cabin it will be a work of art. You are doing a very fine job and I enjoy that you are not using modern tools. You can be very proud of what you have accomplished thus far. I am going to watch every video to watch your progress thank you
Thanks for the compliment, I really appreciate it. I'm glad you're watching the progress 🙂
I still have my draw knife hanging on the office wall with many other hand tools my family used over the years. You bring
back to me so many fond memories. It seems that you have found your rhythm after the first twenty or so logs. Makes
them look so smooth and professional. I can hardly wait until you start to build the walls or what techniques you are going
to use to make them with. You are good with your camera angles.Your video timing skills are spot on and not boring .....
keeping the audiences attention. Some of the cooking shots are done deliciously close up almost can smell and taste what's
in the fry pan.
You seem to have had some of the video classes that I had with what I've seen so far. Don't forget to have some fun
with your camera angles. Doing this will make your videos more interesting just don't go to wild with them.
Humbly yours, Me southern AZ. (USA)
All I can say is, you have to have arms like steel after peeling all those logs. Lifting the logs also is a huge heavy effort. I applaud your work towards your cabin. Post more, I'll watch. But don't push yourself until you break... Thumbs Up!
Thanks for the supportive comment! It's encouraging to see that people really want to follow my journey. And I'm excited to share it with you! Don't worry, I take a break and rest when I need to.😃🌲
Why is it so oddly satisfying to watch logs getting peeled?
I don't know what it is either but I love watching anything done with wood: sawing, peeling,chopping, carving, piling, you name it and I'm there for it😂😂😂 THIS young man is amazing🎉🎉🎉
Curdled milk! Yum. Everything else looked good. Thx. Watching from Ontario Canada 🎉
I see you getting stronger and stronger have you noticed? Watching from Ontario Canada 🎉
a great job well done Matt … 🦋💕
Pekerjaan yang sangat berat, kami salut anda bisa menyelesaikan sendirian di dalam hutan, semakin Sucses terus Kawan, 🙏🙏🙏👍❤
Terima kasih! :)
Hugs to you Mathias! Can't wait to see more!
Mustn’t forget the obligatory pouring of the coffee. 😍
Welcome to the club!!!! :) Bravo!
Wow! I know your channel! And your friend Nik Rijavec's channel too! I'm your big fan! Thanks for the comment!!! Greetings from Croatia :D
oho znači susjedi. Super. a gde tačno se nalaziš u hr?@@MattJacob1
O, super, znači, i mi smo komšije :) ja se nalazim blizu grada Nova Gorica, na granici sa Italijom. Sigurno čemo jedan dan, da se vidimo - ili kot mene ili kot tebe! Budi dobro, i čuvaj se.@@MattJacob1
Da, mogli bi smo se jednom naći 😃. Budi dobro i ti 🙋♂@@loginnature8516
By the end of it, you can tell your legs and back had gotten even stronger. Good job bro!
Thanks Josh!
Você é ummaximo de trabalhador parabens
Obrigado!
Wow, I'm speechless😊
By those last few logs you were throwing them up onto those sawhorses like it was nothing. Log cabin strong.
This is one strong guy
Nice axe!… broadbill I believe.
Thanks! Yep, it's a Gränsfors broad axe model 1900 😁
good lookin logs!
I don't think i have the patience of peeling the bark on that so many logs 😂
Frankly I'd like to see a little bit more than you pilling all those logs but I do feel for you starting a new channel. In order to pick up more people I would think that you would need to be a little more constructive in your or sharing of your video, how you are piling the logs giving help to people by watching as in how and what tools work best and why. I hope this helps you so you can grow your channel bigger. I did enjoy watching.😊
Thanks for feedback! Yes, you are absolutely right, I will try to improve it in the next videos. Still, I'm glad you liked the video!😁
Great videos brother ❤🤝 we will enjoy do it and build camp 🏕️ bushcraft ❤
Thanks buddy🌲🌲
I think you're missing some of the food pyramid but you seem pretty healthy anyway ;)
Você não e dese mundo não além de trabalhador bonito dese jeito

Matthias … Excellent job debarking the trees; outstanding videography!!! Keep up the good work, young man!!! God bless!!! Chuck Knight from Atascocita, Texas, USA. ✝️🎣👨🌾🦌🙏
Thanks!
@@MattJacob1 … Young man, you are very welcome!!! Chuck Knight. 👨🌾
How often must you sharpen your tools? Where and how often do you get your food supplies?
Daily. It is best to sharpen the tool before it is dull. I buy food supplies at the store once every few weeks, but I also have a lot of homemade meat, bread, milk or cheese, eggs and vegetables from my parent's farm.
❤
Not a single rainy day? What is your goal? Are you going to do burning logs for your foundation? concrete? Stones?
When you got to 67 you were picking those logs up like they were toothpicks.
Yeah😄some logs are slightly smaller in diameter and this makes a big difference in weight.
If you don't mind me asking where are you located?
@@johnleeman5992 I'm in Croatia

I COULD WATCH THIS FOR HOURS
❤️❤️❤️🧡🧡💛💛💛💚💚💙💙💙
I wish you could have shared that loaf of bread - lol!
😂
Береги спину парень
Can I asked where in Europe you are building this cabin? Region?
Great vids.
The log that was attacked by beetles sounded a lot different when you started stripping it. Or am I just imagining this? lol
You're right, it's because it was a bit drier in that place.
67 logs is all you need to build the cabin Matthias?
👍
Do you have a grinding wheel ? What country are you in?
Where did you get the logs from. I don’t see any fir trees growing locally?
Fir trees actually grew about half an hour from my property🙂
How long did one log take to be on the sawhorse, stripped and then put on the pile? Also what tree are they from
I managed to peel 3 to 4 logs a day. The beams are from the fir tree.
Okay thank you
No hate but why do you keep cutting things towards yourself instead of away?
Do you mean cutting with a draw knife? Good question. This rule does not apply when working with a draw knife. It's just how it's used and you have to be careful.
How long does it take to peel 1 log? 3-4 hours??😮
1-3 hours for me
@@MattJacob1OH my goodness!!!! I never would have guessed that it would take that long to peel a log!! WOW😮😮❤❤😊
I know a serial killer when I see one..
What type of tree is this?
Fir tree
I have a question on all these cabin builds each and every time you people have these huge meals, and I understand it's allot of work, but how do you even eat that much. While in the army I built bridges such as bailey bridge, MGB across rivers and open spans from one side to another for 12 to 18 hours a day yet we never had meals like that. Heck if I did I would not be able to finish it. Is this a Government mandate thing or are you cooking for two?
Frankly I'd like to see a little bit more than you pilling all those logs but I do feel for you starting a new channel. In order to pick up more people I would think that you would need to be a little more constructive in your or sharing of your video, how you are piling the logs giving help to people by watching as in how and what tools work best and why.

After reading this ridiculous comment around the 10:00 mark, I counted 33 different camera moves for different angles and scenes and a terrific cooking scene! Keep doing what you are doing Young Man, your videos are superb and first class quality. Your camera work is outstanding.
@@markcummings6856 Thank you!
Listen numbnut a quarter of building a log cabin is peeling he's making a realistic video series so once you build your own Log Cabin especially with hand tools then you can come with some advice
