Timber Frame | The Forest Kitchen | Off Grid Log Cabin Build, Ep.1 S1

Описание: In episode 1 of the forest kitchen build, Cali my golden retriever dog helps me once again as I finally get started building the rustic, off-grid covered wilderness outdoor kitchen, starting with a log cabin or timber frame style pavilion to keep me dry while I build the off grid kitchen and then catch, cook and eat in it when it’s built. Other than my dog, I work on this log cabin kitchen alone and I realize now after editing the video and then watching it, that working alone is probably my biggest challenge, especially watching me lift those heavy, green timbers into place on the timber frame. I finally pull the old antique pulleys out of storage to help me with the next phase - raising the roof.

Installing the four corner posts of the pavilion proves to be very difficult due to the weight of them. I improvise to get them upright in the holes before back filling them with concrete. In order to make the posts last longer, I waterproof them using an ancient wood preservation method known as shou sugi ban in Japan.
