    You guys are doing such an amazing job and so much progress! I know that feeling of crying when your tired or just when you think something is going to come out different in your head. These videos are so fun to watch❤ Love you Tess

    @rougefox9233 Před 5 dny

    Tess, I wonder if you could white wash over the darker color that you don't like?.. Look into it. You both did a great job! Your husband is so positive through the whole difficult build process, bravo!! 👏 🥰

    What an absolutely lovely couple you are. Plenty of care shown for each other. I was cringing a bit with some of the "processes", but for people who are just winging it, (I assumed with some of the comments), I think you are wonderful. My new favourite channel. Looking forward to seeing what other escapes you get up to 😃😃

    You guys doing great. Stick to it and you will have a cabin to be proud of. One thing I would recommend, is to purchase a stand-off for the top of your ladder. Not only will you be able to work above the ladder, it will also give you a place to hang tools and rest boards.

  • @blue8857
    @blue8857 Před 17 dny

    Bright side! You can always prime and repaint, but for now the siding is sealed so the weather won't mess it up. I didn't get a choice of color for my little house, it looks like a big boring block of vanilla ice cream.... but when my dad puts it in my name that's all going to change. Chin up!!!

    I like the pitch of your roof that should help take the snow off. it's not quite almost an A-frame nice job man I liked it it looks good. You both are just absolutely phenomenal thank you I guess I'm trying to say it's really nice to see that you're both so invested.

  • @kevinmaxam2414

    Wow! Great job! An adorable couple. Tess you are doing such a good job. When I’m tired I cry too. Y’all please be careful though. God bless.

  • @joannabowers1358
    @joannabowers1358 Před 19 dny +2

    I’m so glad to see that you’re staining the siding. One area that needs heavy stain is the bottom edge. That’s where it will rot the quickest as it’s where it gets the most weather. I’m currently having to have my well house siding replaced because the bottom edges weren’t stained and have rotted. My siding is fine till you get to the bottom 12 inches or so. Just an fyi.

    • @HomeSweetHomeAlaska

  • @dper1112

    Great work! By the way, you might want to buy some clamps. It takes a ton of stress off when you're trying to hold and nail boards at the same time.

    I like the IDEA of off grid, building and living in the bush...but I'd probably get deet poisoning. hahaha !! Mosquitos just love me. Best of luck !! :)

  • @littlegriffoffgridalberta6837

    Good job guys ! The cabin looks great :) It's dried in & you didn't break your neck that's the main thing, You can never have to many ladders when your building ! Been there done that bare feet works good as long as your feet are are not to dry , Stay safe guys !

    That’s vintage Steven King right there. I must say, I am thoroughly enjoying this whole series. The editing is really great too, super enjoyable to watch 😊

  • @BLAM777
    @BLAM777 Před 17 dny

    Spray soda on the panels and let it dry a little. Then you can walk on the metal without slipping. One of my neighbors up in maine told me about that trick because I almost fell off the roof twice.

    • @HomeSweetHomeAlaska

      That's a great tip! I will keep that one in my back pocket for next time.

    If you get on a roof you should be wearing tennis shoes with the rubber soles. Never try to walk on a steep metal roof. Professional use a crane and never walk on the metal. Good luck you two. Later

    @judolee6498 Před 8 dny

    I can't tell you the importance of leather gloves when framing a house or working with sheet metal! Splinters and cuts are brutal and can get infected and cause you to lose some digits on your hands!!!!
