Скачать или смотреть CABIN Main Frame Completed! | Building an Off-Grid Cabin Camp #7 | Beams and Ridge

In previous chapters, we built the cabin's foundation using stone pillars. We then constructed the wooden base and securely attached it to the stone pillars. Then we prepared and installed the chesnut wood pillars. In this chapter, we prepare the cabin's beams, install them, and reinforce the structure with wooden and metal brackets, completing the main structure of the cabin.

Proyect Description:

After 10 years living on the Azores islands (North Atlantic Ocean, Portugal) I have decided to leave my cabin and my job as a researcher at the University, and leave the archipelago to venture into a new project, this time in Galicia (Northwest of Spain).

After months of searching, and seeing almost a hundred plots of land, at the beginning of 2023 I acquired three adjacent plots of land, with a total area of approximately 30,000 square meters. This land, located near the small town of Parada de Sil (Ourense), consists of a valley formed by oak and birch forests, and large meadows, which were used for decades for raising native livestock.

The property is divided in the middle by a small stream, and has ancient granite stone walls, almost demolished, and completely dominated by brambles and bushes.

I am not starting from scratch on this trip, as I already have some knowledge that I have acquired during the construction of my Azores cabin, and a brief experience living off the grid.

My goal is to create a home with my own hands, in the middle of a natural setting, according to a simple, sustainable and off-grid lifestyle.

The most important part of the project will consist of the construction of a log cabin, approximately 30 square meters, erected on granite pillars.

The entire land and its facilities will be completely supplied with renewable energy, mainly solar energy. The water supply will come from a rainwater collection system, a well and specific collections from the stream. In terms of food, I will have orchards, fruit trees, greenhouses and chickens, trying to be as self-sufficient as possible.
Additionally, to obtain extra income that will allow me to purchase products and services that I am unable to produce, I will build two small wooden cabins to rent, and in the future, I will create a blueberry and berry plantation that will allow me to sell the surplus.

You can see this entire process from scratch, live, completely free on my YouTube and Twitch channels. You have to keep in mind that I am not a professional in the construction, carpentry, forestry or agricultural sector, much less in the content creation sector!
