Wilderness Off Grid Cabin - October Update Day 1

For more on this project visit my Blog: http://solarburrito.com
We came up to the 200 sq for cabin to work on it and winterize it, put up some bird blocks to keep the critters out. We didn't plan to stay but ran out of daylight so we stayed to get more work done in the morning. Went out on the canoe with the 3hp outboard motor, that was fun. Thanks to DirtTdude for the "boys and girls" idea. It's his, I stole it check out his channel.

Whats up with that spot you were at with the high bank oon the lake? Do some gold prospecting there or something? You forgot to tell us about it.

@BCDigger There was a waterfront cabin above that spot that was getting sold at a tax sale for what they owed in back taxes. Something like $3400 so I wanted to check it out. Turns out it went for a lot more but I never bid.

this is amazing.. did you build it your self or bought it as a kit of some kind?

[SolarBurrito]

@arshia2008 Yes, we built it our selfs. We bought the plans from Penny Pincher Barns. 200 square foot was as big as we could build and they had a few designs for that. They call it a kit but don't kid your self. It's a pile of uncut lumber delivered straight from the lumber yard and a set of plans. 9 pages. Only drawings no instructions. If I did it again with no experience I'd do it differently.

Now do you plan on cooking out side.and wheres you wood burning stove do you plan canning your own foods.
