Great video. Great things!

This is all a normal person really needs, and it is a damn sight more than most ppl have around the world. I'd be proud to live in a house like this. What would this cost to build? What around $3000? All of a sudden Everyone could afford a home. Damn inspirational!

The ground is packed and the cabin sits 18" above ground level. A drain and slope prevents any settling.

how do you keep the underside from collecting mold and small animals in the insulation? Love the videos. I am attempting to build my own here soon. You have inspired me.

Seal the foundation with plastic and wood and there will not be any mold and critters.

@solarcabin How do you prevent termites. I live in Mississippi and I don't want a mortgage either. But if I'm gonna build something I want it to sand my whole life! It's warm and humid here and termites are everywhere!

The only way to prevent termites is to use a termetricide ground treatment or put it on a cement slab at least 18 inches off the ground.
