    We continue to work away at our tiny cabin during the tail end of a hurricane off the grid on our Canadian Homestead.
    We're a couple building our own off grid cabin from the ground up in the Canadian woods. After serving in the army for the last several years, we faced a major setback with a medical release in 2018 and had to pack up our family and live in an RV on 70 acres we purchased with the impending release. We built our own home, and learned to live a more self reliant life while transitioning to a completely new life outside of the army. We built and sold the first home we built, which is documented entirely on our main channel "MBF Off-Grid". We sold it to be closer to medical care but that didn't stop us from fighting and moving forward. We also bought a farmhouse that we are remodelling and can be seen on our alternate channel "MBFarmhouse".

    Sorry to hear you all are not feeling well.
    Just a little tip......if you're going to use a cut board as a template, ALWAYS use the same one or every cut will be slightly longer.
    Saves a lot of unneeded measuring and checking.
    I like the look of the boards, I've used T&G on several projects.

    If you are going solar on the roof, orient the roof facing South. Make sure you get a 90% compaction on the cabin area before concrete is poured, put a 6 mill poly under the floor before placing concrete. Have added fibers mixed into the concrete? You could put 2 inch 4x8 insulation down before the concrete also. Think about plumbing, get the pipes in before the concrete, and duck tape the openings.

    Jeremy and Ashley, I was happy to see you get the new farm and property. I was equally excited to see you get the new tractor, and start on the cabin. The Ford Truck is probably my favorite thing to see you get. I think the square body Fords and Chevys are the best looking designs they made. Way better looking than the trucks of today.

    To save you Guys a little time and money. On those holes in the siding. while sawing save you saw dust when you have a few holes Mix a cup of saw dust and some Elmer wood Glue, stir the mixture until all the dust is wet with the glue, Then fill the holes until it is full. after it dries if it is to low you can add more if needed. You can get the glue in the gallon container. Another thing if you need to clean a spot in can be done with warm/ hot clean water. when fully dried it can be stained or painted.

    Compressors/electric motors have a LRA rating in amps. Called Locked Rotor Amps. Practically a short circuit for an instant untill the rotor starts spinning. As voltage drops in a short circuit or low battery, the amps go thru the roof, according to some elecrical math magics.

    When you’re ready to recharge air while using that power unit, you want to purge the air from the air tank. It’s pulling more power to recharge because you’re trying to force air into an already pressurized tank so the motor has to work harder. Also, if the compressor uses oil, drain the cheap stuff in there and get some decent stuff. That helped a lot in my case.

    • @MBFModernHomesteading

    Check the air compressor bleed-off valve. The bleed-off valve should be actuated when the compressor shuts off. Most bleed-off valves are located at the pressure switch. If the pressure is not bled-off there is tank pressure at the pump head and the compressor will not start. I love watching your channel(s)!

      @@MBFModernHomesteading Ya strange, I thought the power curve on lithium batteries were pretty flat, at 60% battery would think would be enough, maybe not though... you can damage a motor by starting it with an insufficient power source, it will continue to draw power and heat up even though it is not moving. Motors have high induction, which requires more power/current to start. AC compressors and blower fans have starter capacitors to help get them moving and protect the motor. They may sell a starter/run capacitor for your air compressor, though I think you would be better off just using your other generator to power it. If your air compressor has a starter or run capacitor it might be bad and need replacement.

    My compressor did the same. Needs lota amps to start, not so much to run, but each time it shuts down have to start over and hi amp to start again. You can try running tank down to nothing and compressor may start again and shut off at max pressure. Get at least a full tank at a time.
