- Building something for yourself is one thing, but building something for someone else('s) wedding, is another! This was actually kind of a stressful process. I was struggling to get the pitch that I wanted, worried about taking too much length off in the process (which wasn't an issue in the end because I gave myself enough length to play with). Worried if the symmetry was good enough, colours good enough, and just worried in general! haha. I'm glad it's over. 🤫😬
I always learn so many things every time I challenge myself to another new project and tackling new skills. I literally lay awake at night for hours thinking of how I could improve upon things, how I could do things differently, and what future projects I want to do and share.
In the end, I have no idea what the angle / pitch is, but the length of each log is approximately 175"/ 14.5' / 444.5 cm, and the approximate width at the bottom is 120" / 10' / 304.8 cm.
Bonjour, Je regarde ces videos depuis peu, par hasard, et ce que je vois c'est une fille qui se débrouille toute seule (à priori) pour réaliser un tas de travaux différents et de plus avec une certaine aisance ! j'en suis bluffé et je dis "chapeau" ! Elle a tout l'outillage qui va bien, les idées et les astuces... Super Woman !
Hi, I've been watching these videos recently, by chance, and what I see is a girl who manages on her own (a priori) to carry out a bunch of different jobs and moreover with a certain ease! I'm amazed and I say "hats off"! She has all the right tools, ideas and tips... Super Woman!
Very good !👍👍🙌🙌 I can understand that Michy is Michele => congratulations Michelle !!
That was hilarious, when the log fell into the creek! I totally felt your frustration, but it was funny to watch.
Michele, You bring a special creative level of "can do" to your DIY projects that is very refreshing, funny, and inspiring. Great filming, editing, music 👍😊
You he me laughing at the bridge. That is exactly what would happen to me! 😂🤣 And expletives would fly!
I've lost a few loads into the creek myself. So, I definitely can relate . :) Again, your "stick to it-ness" is impressive lady.
Hiya Michele,
Great video, thank you. I think it was wonderful to give Steve so much praise and thanks for his help with this project, BUT, have you noticed how often there is a but in things? BUT it was your concept of how to do it, your skill, your brain. Yes, I can see how my namesake did his bit, bit = small part, not knocking Steve but you did the work and got it to look so fabulous on the day. The cut it down the middle is also all from you, symbolic too, the whole being two parts that fit and match together. I'd have put vines spiralled down all the legs with battery lights, but then I was a lighting technician in a past life. To put it together, your work was wonderful, you took her request for an arbour and made it work, and look great, and be safe from little kids playing, and well done, IT WORKED!!! What more do you need? Okay, you've redesigned it for sale, the cross-braced foot being covered was genius.
Stay safe, Steve...
Trial and error 😆. Least you stick at it. What a lovely lifestyle. It’s nice to watch you
This is what is known as "sweat equity"! Living in paradise reminds us we are human! Your tenacity shines...👍😎🇨🇦🌲🐾🌲🌲🌲
Your “get-it-doneness”, resourcefulness and energy are quite awe inspiring. Keep up the great work !!
your very sharp and one tough cookie that might be why you have an old hockey lnjury lol
Another great video, I like how you adapt, overcome, and accomplish what you set out to do. You rocked the wedding outfit.
I'm a little too old to do the things I used to do. But apparently, I can still imagine and dream. Thank you for your inspiration.
Is amazing the strenght you show, working and handling with such logs!!!!
I love ya, but I gotta say I never laughed so hard in my life watching the fast forward, log towing segment.
Classic!
It’s why I put it all in for ya! 😉. We all need to laugh more! 😁
You are such an awesome person to do this for your friend! I love your enthusiasm, creativity, and ingenuity! Thank you for showing us all your wonderful projects!
Yeah, agree with the previous comments - fixed wheels the way to go, and also don't go too far out on the wheel base. But thing is ... I would've also opted for rotating wheels before I saw this... Well done on persevering - it got the job done.
FoxyRoxy did a great job! :)
I'm in love, short pants and saw chaps, love it.
That's gotta be so cool to have all those suppiles just laying around in wait for your inspiration the rope leveling saddle kudos Steve👍till the next one lady with those killer eyes😍✌🙏
Especially enjoy seeing the trial & error process and the engineering that ultimately solves things! You're definitely giving me some ideas for creative uses for the logs/timber in my woods.
Your dogs love you, that's very obvious, the bond is strong.
That is awesome, great job young lady. God Bless you and Steve.
Beautiful setting for a wedding. Beautiful arbor. Neat trick cutting the angles, thanks for sharing your hard learned lessons. Love your videos.
Oh yeah, I love the struggle ( when I'm feeling good! ), I cannot get my sons to really understand the love of what happens inside when you win your fight against inanimate objects!
That lateral slide-stop, a tad short of the slippery drop, rest o'way to ground, was understatedly fawesome
[the twig reach grab snap, subtle evidence of kinesthetic awareness. Undoubtedly enhanced by growing up on snow skis perhaps?🤟🙂🖖❤️🔥] 00:46
WOW Michelle, you don,t let anything beat you, very talented lady you are, great job and well done, love your videos, keep up the good work.
i think the animals have a good laugh every time you go into the woods
Nice job, I agree with the cedar mulch, looked so much better, I bet it was massive in person, pretty cool! Great idea cutting the logs in half....brilliant!!! Was that Hanna I saw, hope all is well with her, Clyde is such an awesome hugger! Thanks for the update
You did a great job on that! I’m sure the wedding party was really happy with it! Thank you for sharing!
La tua creatività e la tua bellezza non hanno confini
Nicely done! Again! Your ingenuity in thinking all this through is awesome! Each problem can have multiple solutions. The fact that you think it through and come up with workable solutions is fantastic!
Very, very cool. Great job 😊👏👏👏
wow Michelle you did a awesome job on that wedding arbor .you are a good thinker lots great ideas and you look beautiful in a dress . keep up the inspiring videos
Absolutely Beautiful!!!!!! Awesome job Thanks!!!!
---as my wife always saiys: "Now you cut it three times, and it is still to short..." ;-)
For the dolly two wheels with a fixed axis would work best.
You totally blow my mind. you're beautiful and totally awesome to learn from. Love your videos Michelle. Steve is one smart man.
Chris stole my thunder but I was going to say your ingenuity and tenacity were inspiring. Watching your vids puts a smile on my face. And since I’m an old man, I can also tell you that you’re a cutie too. Keep ‘um coming and thanks for sharing.
Michelle, you are definitely very creative!
Great design and build!
Well done!
Hi Michele! Like all of your videos! Very interesting! Thanks for your eplantations! Beautiful nature nd ever bears!!!!👍😊
Turned out to be very nice too . S. I enjoy projects like this. You and your husband , be blessed and keep on keepin on
I like the way you don't take yourself too seriously.. you're willing to show your mistakes in a funny way.. "not once, but twice"... when you do it, you own it.. LOL..
Awesome project!!!
Looks amazing, keep up with your videos!🦸♀️🌲👍👌👌
Your creativity and ingenuity are off the charts Michelle! Gad to see Steve up and about. Hopefully his back is doing better.
I agree most people do not have access to great logs nor the means to process them. You are very fortunate to have both but I think your friend is the most fortunate having you as s friend. Excellent job. You should be very proud. Thanks for another great video. Always looking forward to your next one.
Thank you!
your ingenuity is remarkable
You did a great job! Well done!
How about strapping the ball hitch to the bottom of the log and straight wheels, possibly a bracket to bolt to the bolt on trolley.
Set up was an awesome idea.
Years ago I made a half round arch for my brother's wedding. Ripped strips glued them into a jig for arch, made two sides and wrapped with 1x4 as mortise. Was hoping he would have taken home with him and use at his house, but that didn't happen.
Awesome job. Great ideas.
I'll give your credit Missy, you got a lot of spunk in you. Your ingenuity is astounding but your videography and sense of humor is fabulous. My sides were hurting from laughing with your log skidding. And yes they make attachments like three point hitches for ATV's. Keep building Sweetie.
It worked, which is what counts. Good job!
You are so clever and creative!
Really enjoyed this, your problem solving skills are impressive!
That's Awesome Amazing Arbour
I am amazed at all your hard work n strength it takes to do this stuff.not just physically but mentally n how your mind works to change or alter what your doing on the fly.i do the same but never watched anyone else do it.very talented girl.should have had the reporter come in on this for a report on wedding trellises. Lol.very nice n the project was too.
👍 Very Cool build 👍
I sure enjoy your videos. So much beauty and determination. Thank you. Its also interesting to see the weather conditions as Im close enough to you that Im living them too. Heat, smoke, rain...very fun to watch. I chuckled pretty hard the 2nd time the log fell off the bridge, but felt bad for you.
Love the backing track for dragging the logs. The bridge scene was classic. Honestly though, lift with your legs not your back! I like the results of the project.
You certainly do know how to live life to its fullest. I thought the wheels were good idea I wouldn’t have thought trailing would have been a problem, you persevere no matter what,nothing stop s you 😊
Very nice! Your creativity really came through in the design.
“Which naturally didn’t happen”or “I’ll cross that bridge when it happens “ both comical comments are a testimony to your “dog-get “determination when you express yourself through this amazing personality energetic clarification through your application well done nice job 👍
Hang in there little girl!! Well done!
You kick it the ass in every video! 🙌💥
well executed video as always and three cheers for the little black dress!
Your determination is inspiring! I'm willing to bet, you can do about anything you have a mind to! Ooh Rah!
Omg funniest 🤣watching you drag that first one.
Looking good and swell !
Hope all is well gorgeous. Looking forward to your next vid. ✌🏾😊🙌🏾😍❤️🌹
Perhaps a good start for a tiny A frame cabin. Arbor turned out great!
Great job Michelle, it must have given you a good feeling to help your friend celebrate her union. I think non-swiveling wheels would work better for you, and locate the dollie more toward the center of the log so it follows like a trailer. That should make it much easier to navigate the tight turns. Best regards.
you come up with the most amazing ideas love it
great rustic arbor project.
Michy, I found your channel today and have been binge watching! I laughed so hard when the dolly went left and fell off the bridge. Then laughed even harder when it happened again! I thought of the trials the inventor of the wheel must have gone thorough, lol. I’m a big fan already and especially enjoy watching the millwork. And the Foxy Roxy shtick is fun too. Keep it going!
I love your DOGS! :) and I'm still just Halfway through your video. :) stay tuned.... Thanks Mischief Michy :)
You are absolutely amazing.
So glad to see you bought and are using saw pants. Two options for dragging logs, cut over length and cut off excess when at site or, take a crazy carpet ( satans plastic toboggan design) and bend CC over the exposed end and screw there and wrap strap around other end of CC to secure off of ground. You could even drag two pieces at a time with either of these methods.
The arbor turned out great but a medieval pin and tenon to secure joints or recessed screw head with dowels would take it to another level. Also doing a lap joint and creating a cross at the top would be nice too.
Congratulations to the new couple and your perseverance to complete the project! well done
You ,vanessa blank and lilly survivor etc are in the vanguard.kudos..of course inspiring how could it NOT be.. (:-)
Michy, You bring a special dogged level of "can do" to your DIY projects that is very refreshing, funny and inspiring.
P.S .my two Walker Hound girls Mattie Louise and Beulah B. want me to have you say "HOWLDY" to your beefcake handsome boy Clyde. They like his style!!
He’s such a handsome boy! 🥰
@@michygoss7148 Yes! he is and my two houndy girlies agree!! Howl-heartedly
@@nancybrown2700 😂😂🥰
Awesome Michelle , that came out really well and I loved the finished touch with the buried bottom plate , well done 👍 yeah the wheels on the log and the bridge ?! Hahaha 😝 there’s a lesson there and I think you know it 😊 take care miss 💐
Regards
James
I am learning many techniques with you.
I'll mirror some of the earlier comments - your initiative is outstanding, well done 👍
Ted Benson is your man! Lol Timber frame builder and he does or used to teach as he built for customers and boy is his work beautiful. Based in Canada I believe.
Nice job as usual 👍
Amazing work ! Again ^^ even though was complicated to trail the trees ^^.
very nice. I admire your enginuity, stamina and talent. thanks
Definition of a wilf on every video, you're awesome!
That trolley so funny 😂😂
Awesome Job ❤and looking so Lovely. Hi from South Texaa
Bien creativa te quedo bonito!
I don’t know, I think you’re the coolest woman on planet earth 🌍! Great video. The dogs are awesome too!
Nice job!😁
You did a very good job and looked very very nice....
Lay the two logs down at the “perfect” pitch. Lay a board wide enough across the point of the angle so that it spans all 4 inside and outside edges of both logs and is at 90 degrees to the base of the logs. Use the outside edges of the board as references to your angled cut.
Side note. Trying to brain my way through a cost effective ATV log hauler as well. You gave me a great idea!!
Very cool structure
Done! wow Michy, great video! You have so many skills! I bet you have more tools than Harbor Freight! and you know how to use all of them! amazing.. Your project worked out nicely, looks fantastic! You did it! Congrats. oh and .. You clean up very Nicely! :) thanks for all of your videos. Made in Canada !! :)
Very well done i loved the way it looked !! PS.you looked very beauityful in that dress .
I like the arbor……..Love the dress!!🥰💚

"I'll cross that bridge when I get to it"... yes, slowly and with many stops! ;)
