Hey Mike: just wanted to let you know I began building a chicken coop (8’x8’) last week & used the layout method I learned from you that you used for your mini-cabin. The coop is on posts and elevated 30” off the ground-the layout method worked like a charm! Thanks for the info. I learned a lot. Really enjoy your channel-not much into firewood, but we’ve got about 37 acres in east TX, and there’s always something that needs to be done. Started watching the channel when it was primarily you & the Kubota. Learned a lot about taking care of my road from you as well. I wish you, Melissa and your family the best. Thanks again for all the good info you guys put out.
Hey guys, watching some of your older videos. Great t-shirt idea "chain saws make you more happy!"
Love the dogs
Not sure how i missed this video. as usual excellent construction
well done Mike in getting this done
Another great video, nice work Morgan’s!!!!!! Hi to Hunter
I think Melissa needs a raise!!!
Well done guys!!!
Nice looking family,I love watching you guys ,your vlogs transport me to a dream place, it is so nice there ,I’m learning a little bit more about how to build make things, thanks BigAl California.
Great video....Outstanding.
Looking good Mike! Hopefully it doesn’t rain tomorrow!
They keep getting better and better. Have a great Labor Day weekend.
I was glad to see you putting those decking boards tight together, in a year you will have an eighth of an inch gap and in two years you will have a quarter of an inch gap what with how that pressure treated lumber shrinks. Good video, thumbs up.
In Australia we leave 6mm to 8mm gap between the boards because the boards swell it depends on how much moisture in the timber from old retired aussie builder
Looking good, Mike
Nice solid steps, they will last !
That is so much fun I love to do that kind of work
Mike & Melissa great job,coming a long nice, it's good to see your dogs stick with You. Thank you for sharing, Stay safe.
I just liked it cuz hunter is cool! And overall the Morgan family is pretty good. For east coasters 😊😜😂
Great video!
Morgans in the morning, that is the way to wake up. It is nice to see Hunter out and about. Melissa and Ava, beautiful as always. Mike, did you say you once did blasting for a living? That is a job where doing things just right is vital. My Grandfather was coal miner, who did much of his own blasting. This included cutting a road out of a hillside by hanging off the edge drilling blast holes with a jack hammer. No wonder you always use protective gear and want things just right. That is the mark of a professional and someone one should learn from. Best wishes and God bless you all!!
Good seeing you Hunter, like the tee shirt
That would make a great deer stand .
Lookin good guys!... Just FYI, your top tread is never flush with your deck. The deck is considered a landing. And get Melissa a tool belt... Lol
⭐️⭐️⭐️Your kids are stars⭐️⭐️⭐️ project coming along well. Another awesome video. Thanks guys!!
GREAT VIDEO
Great video Mike, I know I should be more original with my comments! I was pondering how many small structures your videos have inspired, I’m guessing 362
loved the solid sound of the steps Mike when you walked up them. screws beat nails every time... Melissa, I could not hear you going up the steps. you are spot on about how outdoors in the forest is really good for the soul.
Good video M&M !
That is one beautiful piece of property!
Looking good Mike. Your so right about the outdoors. Where i live it's not so green, but being outside with just your thoughts and nature makes things better. Its awesome to see the family getting more and more involved with the channel. 😁
Seriously... was she crowning that lumber? Bravo!.. i look for each new vid.. you folks make my week!
I tend to use the back wheels of my tractor as a first pass compactor. Just a friendly idea. And I totally agree that you can’t be in a bad mood when in nature. Love this project. Looking for the perfect spot in my land to do the same...
Loved the video, you and Melissa work well together. Greetings from North Wales 👍🏴
Nice work
Great seeing Everyone!! Hunter is Awesome!
Cant wait to see you in the mini cabin this deer season.
Good morning from Ky. The best way to start a day !! :)
Good job guys. Good to see Hunter and Eva. Family makes everything better
Very nice that your whole family gets involved in your channel. Keep up the good work
Yeah Hunter & Eva! Love how you include Hunter in all the videos! I'm Pat & I am a parent of a 26 year old son on the Autism Spectrum. Pat & Paula Harker, The Harker Family Farm in Central Oklahoma!
I watch because Melissa is so beautiful and smart
Now Melissa can REALLY go down the stairs out in the woods!! Great job everyone!
Can't tell you how much I look forward of seeing your videos... It is like going to the candy store when I was a kid..... thank you and your family for all you do to make these videos...…...and please tell Hunter this old man is waving his hand at him
Wow that is going to be a great retreat for you...
Now the question is will you be able to stay still long enough to enjoy such a wonderful creation.
It's nice to see all the family appear in the videos and Hunter is appearing to be a little more camera relaxed.
Hi Hunter.
i had no idea that i could enjoy watching carpentry work. i guess since a deer blind, it has my attention. hello hunter a eva, good to see yall. HAVE A DAY👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Looks great. It’s awesome to see the family helping
Looks great ! Our 3 labs are the same way w my wife Kim. They’d b happiest if they were right in her back pocket 24/7 ! And she’d love it too ! Lol
Mike and Melissa you are doing a fantastic job on the cabin and the view from the top of the stairs is beautiful. Nice to see the family at the end. Fathers day today here, had lunch with dad then spent the afternoon making 3 raised garden beds with him so he can grow his veges without having to dig to much anymore .
Bark side up, Nice.
AWESOME!
Hey Hunter, looking good out there, Have to spend some time in the Mini Cabin.
Hay Mike, Now what you need to do is to pull up all those stair treads and treat all the cut edges of the stringers with that anchor seal to help prevent rotting, even on treated lumber. And where I live, you'd have to put joist hangers under each stringer to meet code.
Just a tip for future use. If you router just the top outside edge of your treads, they'll last a lot longer. You don't have to go crazy with the router, just use it to take the sharp edge off of the tread real quick, and the treads will last twice or three times as long.
That thing is going to be so nice when it’s done. Looking awesome so far
Mike, you keep telling us that you're not a carpenter. I looked it up..."one who carpents."😉
Dude not only are you one, but so is Melissa (I saw her crowning those deck boards 👍)
I just loved how you guys explained how his interaction with your viewers works so well for Hunter. It's a good insight for us into his world. Tell Eva that she may not be sharing in all of Hunter's bounty, but from what we can see, she definitely shares his sweet personality. You guys are great!
Great to see Hunter. Your vids are taking on a different feel for the better. Could be fall is in the air. Great job Mike and Melissa.
Love the view! Really fun project and looks like the whole family is into it.
I can't wait until you get the floor done and start the walls. I would live in it just for the piece and quite. The stairs will need a hand rail for us disabled to safely go up. God bless. I hope to see Hunter again soon.
Great job on the mini cabin!! You have inspired me. Thanks for the great videos.
Good to see Hunter out with the family enjoying himself Way to go. LOL from Sydney Australia
This was beautiful and made tears to eyes to see you all together as family. greetings from Australia also. If ever you would come to Australia would make you welcome to Victorian alpine region and sites of interest.
Nice job guys.. I can't wait to see more work being done on the cabin.
Good job. Looks great. A good view from the top. 👍👍👍❤️
Hey Mike, Melissa, Hunter and Eva and of course da puppies 🐶. Great video folks. The stairs are looking good, only a suggestion, some kind of non-skid runners or paint on the stair treads. Wet treads and cold weather can be disastrous!!! Looks great around there and yes, being closer to nature is healthier in most conditions! Thanks for sharing with us and keep the videos coming.
That mini cabin is really coming along! Keep up the great videos. God Bless.
Thanks guys really good, loving the build and loving the family involvement in your videos. Cheers guys
Cabin coming along good,great job on the stairs they look professional . Your property is beautiful reminds me of the shore home my parents had when I was a kid.Keep the vids coming they are wonderful , love watching you guys working together
I love these mini cabin build videos!
Hey Mike that is a pretty good helper you have there. I saw Melissa checking the crown on those boards before she put them up on the porch. Nice job you guys!
Steps are lookin' really good & rock solid, enjoyed the ratchet strap "persuasion". Thanks for sharing & have a great day!
We love having fun with Mike. He came from the same mold that I did!! Haha
I noticed that Mellisa was checking the ends of the boards for the cup 👍👍👍👍
Those boards are upside down. They will cup, not crown, and will hold water.
It's always great to see Hunter. Great family.
My Dad's always talked about building a tree stand/Hilton on Stilts back in the day. It is fun watching yours take shape.
Hey all. Any day outside is a blessing thats for sure.. Melissa and Eve.. You two have such big smile dipples wow nice.. Plus you said something was happening here in Michigan?? Union city?? Not sure where that is.. Im by Grand Rapids Mich..so much more i could say. But i would... But Mike.Melissa. Hunter. Eve... Take care be safe...
If you were to build a cabin like I did 200 years ago... Most likely Pennsylvania had Post and beam construction... I actually cut the wood .. As fast you can input it up green.. This is why the joints are so precise. In post and beam...
Mini-cabin is coming along nicely! You all are building it to last!
When you have nice toys,it makes life much more fun and enjoying.Chainsaws and a splitter are must haves for a happy life.
Great video. Have a relaxing Labor Day!!!!
Mike & Melissa, we should collaborate on that log splitter/chainsaw study. I'll bet money that it does in fact lead to a happier life! Though a Woodridge probably makes one happier than my slow MTD. 😊
Great lay out for the stair steps love the gravel and your a top with the bucket grading 👌
Nice job Melissa checking the cup of those deck boards before installing!
Hey Hunter from Western Nebraska. Nice to see you out in the woods...flip flops and all!!
The cabin is really looking great👍. I have a feeling this project will grow over time, another deck that will become enclosed eventually, becoming bedroom #1. More deck following and again enclosed for a walk in closet for the flannel season, camo for hunting season etc, etc etc...this has been a great project to follow and thanks for sharing👍👍👍🇺🇸
Every day is a great day, add 24:23 seconds of outdoors with the Morgan's and whoa. That's how make a Great day full of awesomeness. BTW happy labour day and the video was as usual outstanding. Morgan's have an awesome long weekend.
Great view! Can't wait for the deer hunting videos. Thanks for your video.
Hey Hunter good to see you on the job site. Every job needs am inspector👍 Melissa and Mike the project is looking good. Keep up the good work.
Hunter did you come out to see that Mom and Dad were doing a great job with the mini cabin and your sister Eva had to come to see where you were?
Loves and hugs from Alamogordo New Mexico USA.
May God bless you and your family
Blind is looking good
Looking great, can't wait to see it finished. Union, MI is only a few hours away; wife and I are seriously thinking about making the trip up. Thanks for making great videos, look forward to them each day.
Nice family
Mike and Melissa I enjoy watching you guys. The way to a man's well being is to buy him what he needs to feel useful and productive
Mike, this is going to sound weird, but while you are working there on your cabin stand, maybe try this. Dig a hole about 4 feet deep with the backhoe, it doesn't have to be wide, fill it up with a scoop or two of clean 57's or 3/4 stone, run a hose from the gravel up to inside the cabin and a funnel at the top and you have yourself a urinal that is hard to smell. Not for daily use or anything, but good for emergencies. Cap the gravel with some landscape fabric so dirt doesn't silt in and cover with 2 feet of dirt or so.
I should have guessed that this project couldn’t be completed without some stone somewhere!🤣🤣 Looking really good, Mike and Melissa!
Absolutely awesome view!
Coming along really nicely. Nice to see Hunter out there in the woods with you. That's quite a view up there. Can't wait to see the rest of the project. Really enjoying the build progress. Random question... what's the update on the brick house. I remember you cut a swale in the back to divert run off and you were planning to update the inside. I'd like to see how it's coming along. Thanks for sharing. Have a day. Tell Hunter and Eva I said Hi!
Great job enjoyed that, it’s really coming together!!!!
The cabin is going to be nice and sturdy. Hello Hunter and daughter Eva:) Have a day.
