I'd rather have a cabin in the woods like this than a mansion in the Hamptons. Amazing job, Dave.

My parents saved & bought a 1932 Cape Cod in '75, 10 yrs after graduating hs, marrying, & moving from TN to NY. It was fixer upper & dad did everything from the floors to the roof as well as outside (grapevine trellises, rosebushes to grace the kitchen windows, putting up a shed, lean to for the wood. The first yr, they bricked up the fireplace and put in a wood burning stove. He'd work alongside a cutter after his shifts on the LIRR & bring home the extra. Best decision ever! That stove heated two levels within 45 minutes and kept the oilman visits to once a year unlike the neighbors who had him out every other month starting in October 😮. I'd help him chop, season & rotate the wood throughout the summer to early fall, bringing the drier pieces to the back porch, splitting kindling, etc I remember helping him hang gutters, put up paneling (a true '70s experience 😂), replace the formica countertops, pull up the linoleum flooring and replace w tiles, replace piping, solder copper, painting rooms, putting up floor to ceiling mirrors to add depth, so much over those 20 yrs until I married and left. Then when he suffered a double stroke in 2017 and Alzheimer's set in, he eventually became wheelchair bound. I built a portable ramp from plywood, sanded & covered w outdoor carpet & put double looped handles on it from (get this) yardssss of telephone cord 😂 so his caregiver could lift it in & out of the doorway to take him outside. It tickled the neighbors to see his daughter donning his toolbelt! I'm honored to be able to follow in his footsteps in at least being able to take care of my own house (and cars, yep, he was THAT dad! I even went to work in the svc dept of a dealership all through high school & into college. There's NOTHING like the power of being able to know when a mechanic is trying to rip you off😂 I'm screening in a patio next😊 Thank you for the memories. ~Best to you

Man,I'd love to find a couple of acres of land to build a cabin off grid where I live and just enjoy the quietness and solitude and escape the craziness of this world.
@haileycohen8180
I absolutely love how you hung up your grandpas saw what a perfect touch
@supermike0822
Your videos are like watching a PBS special, reading a calming book, and drinking coffee by the fire all at the same time. Almost ASMR at times... very enjoyable.
@Slickpaparazzo
These two videos alone beats watching any baseball, basketball, or football game any day of the week.

I'm glad you like this book. It sounds like a very useful and informative resource for shed-building enthusiasts. https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxzaRUJNcbypw-fRBDbqqz43ULIa-1EGP- The author seems to have a lot of experience and knowledge on how to build sheds of different styles and purposes. You must have learned a lot from his tips and examples. The photos are also impressive, they demonstrate the quality and beauty of the sheds. The book itself is also well-made, with glossy, thick paper and a soft cover that is pleasant to touch. This book is a wonderful choice. blush

So many builders don’t build a a porch. It gives you a place to get out of the snow, gives you a chance to slit and stack wood. So glad you did this for you and your guests and think of the stories you will have to pass along
@rosekisiel3383
My older son goes out to his dad's cabin by himself every chance he can if he's not working. His wife calls it his Recharge time. Seeing your videos makes me so happy to know he takes the time to mentally and physically take care of himself. Everyone should have a cabin in the woods.

I was born and raised in LA all my life and I’m 28 years old. Truth be told I’ve always been envious of people who live in areas like this and can be in the woods and create/build things. I accidentally stumbled across your channel and hope you’re enjoying that wonderful cabin you’ve built!
@bonniedunn5068
I love the way you and Brooke silently give thanks to the lord before each meal. Far too few do that any more. AND you give such good simple info on what your doing. You make it easy to understand and give the urge to want to try also!
@BG.........
This seriously makes me want to build a little cabin for myself. I've never built anything bigger than a birdhouse. So it's a bit intimidating. It just must feel amazing to stay in something you built all in your own.
@spongebobsquarehead8121
I usually don’t comment, but I really must say that the cinematography of your videos, the calm, the gorgeous music and the rugged feel really make me feel like I’m back up in the mountains. Here’s to your videos tiding me over until the summer!
@EGlideKid
You’re doing everything right, brother. Nice music, a positive, humble attitude, and an awesome work ethic. Plus, you don’t take yourself too seriously and you’re thankful for what you have. You’re blessed, my friend. Thanks for this series!
@theJoefamilychannel
Say a prayer, love it. God has blessed you beyond belief. 🙏🏽
@clivemossmoon3611
As old-school as the tablesaw is, I'd prefer it over today's versions. It's cast iron and belt driven as opposed to cast aluminum and direct drive, therefore less vibration. I love how you make the most out of the tools you have. 👍
@NoahClay6
Watched Part one 2 weeks ago. Super happy there is a part 2 now. This has been great to watch. A cabin in the woods is always great to have.👍👍
@jessis9598
I love everything about this video. The cabin, your moccasin slippers, the coyotes howling and the beautiful scenery! Your food looks delicious too! Please keep the videos coming sir!
@angelacampan5799
I watched some of your videos. I love them. I like that you’re not ashamed to pray before you eat. God bless you and your family. Greetings from Windsor, Ontario, Canada
