Building an Off Grid A-Frame Cabin in Alaska - TIMELAPSE - Episode 2

Welcome back!
In the second episode, we will cover the process of sheathing the A's, laying down Ice & Water shield, and installing the metal roof as we rush to ensure the building is properly sealed before the snow sets in.

This footage took place during October, so days were getting shorter and temperatures were getting colder. It seemed like any work that required being up on a ladder brought rain, so it made for some rather miserable working conditions on those days.

Days:
0:05 - Day 17 - 10/4/22 - Sheathing the A's Pt. 1
2:40 - Day 18 - 10/8/22 - Sheathing the A's Pt. 2
5:37 - Day 19 - 10/9/22 - Ice and Water Shield

12:30 - Day 21 - 10/15/22 - Metal Roofing
