It's been a very productive week. Finally finished building the walls, I remove the last of the steel cables from the trees, relieved to no longer be lifting the heavy logs. I have now begun the construction of a frame roof for my homestead. First, I installed wooden beams for the second floor and put in a lot of temporary boards that I can move freely on while the roof is being built. Hot days slow me down, this week the temperature did not drop below +30 degrees Celsius, so I wake up at 5 am and start working, it's still cool so early, so this is the perfect time to work. After I finish the roof, I will start making a separate room for a sauna and a shower room, and on the second floor I will start insulating the floor. Although there is very little space on the second floor, I still plan to make a small room there where I can spend the night when I build my house. At this time of year, I can get a lot of food grown in my garden. Therefore, I often use vegetables to prepare a delicious dish. Next summer I plan to start raising livestock, maybe goats, sheep, chickens and cows. I think this is a good idea because I have a lot of space so they will be comfortable. It will also solve the problem of lack of meat, eggs and milk. ► My Patreon - bjornbrenton

Building with heavy logs takes a lot longer than I expected - it's hard work, and cutting, shaping and fastening the timbers together takes a lot of time. The temperature sometimes rises to 28 degrees Celsius, and in such heat various insects are very active, which clearly worsen working conditions, but despite certain difficulties, this week I did a lot of work on the building of the log cabin. Moose, deer, foxes and wild boars appear around the site. To save the harvest, I made a metal mesh fence. Now my vegetables and fruits will be safe. I also went on a photo hunt for the first time this week. I was able to photograph a lot of wild animals that live near my site. I liked shooting and photographing nature so much that I decided to open a separate YouTube channel where I will upload videos and photos of amazing wildlife. I will share the link with you soon.

Hi everyone! I am continuing to build my own log cabin (on my forest plot), which will later serve as a sauna, shower room and a small room where I can relax, while building my real big house for me and my family. At the beginning of the video, I needed to make a wooden hammer to fasten the timber, after which I started drilling holes to fasten the wall. For this I use a 28mm wood drill bit and a birch wood wedge. To insulate the wall, I use a natural linen insulation. This week seemed very hot, it was hard to work in such weather. Also, insects are very annoying, so I have to start a fire and keep it going throughout the day . Due to hot weather and drought, vegetables and fruit trees have to be watered twice as often, because of this there is a big shortage of water, because there has been no rain lately either. I have to carry water from the nearest lake, which is 800 meters from my site. I started thinking about digging a well, I think it would be a good idea, because the issue of water supply will be gone forever. The walls are being built slowly but surely. I had to come up with a mechanism for lifting a log to a log house, since it is becoming increasingly difficult to do it manually. I pulled the cable and installed a winch that allows me to lift the weight up to 1 ton. This saves a lot of effort and energy, so building walls will become a little easier.

Hello my friends. Finally the time has come when I can start working on my garden. It is difficult to live off the land in the wild forest, but in this episode I tried to make good conditions for vegetables so that they can grow well and bear good fruit. I made raised beds and filled in 20cm of beautiful black soil, which will give the plants the opportunity to deeply root. If this season there will be a lot of vegetables in this garden, then next season I will make this garden several times larger. There are a lot of wild hares and other animals in this forest, so in order to save my garden, in the next video I will make a metal mesh fence. Also In this episode, I started building walls for my square log house. After building the walls and roof, I will start working on the shower room and steam room, so subscribe to the channel so as not to miss these videos. I really hope you will enjoy the video!

Hello my friends. A lot has been happening since my last episode. Summer is already approaching, everything is in bloom, and the days are getting longer and longer, now I can do a lot more work in one day, and it's wonderful. In this video, I made a brick oven for my forest kitchen. First, i made a concrete foundation, and after it solidified, I began to make a decorative brick oven, which i purchased in the nearest city. The oven turned out to be incredibly beautiful and comfortable, it seems that the food cooked on it becomes much tastier. Now I can realize all my culinary skills with this stove. I also installed stone veneer for the Homestead. This is a great idea for those who want to give their home an extra decorative and dramatic look! In the next episode, I will start planting a vegetable garden and an orchard Thank you so much for watching!! I hope you liked the video! Take care everyone!

This week I finished installing and insulating the floors in my homestead, now I can build walls from timber. Also, this week I finished installing plumbing for my sauna and shower room. To drain water from the shower, I laid underground pipes, and so that the water flowing from the shower did not pollute the environment, I installed a wastewater filter at the outlet of the septic tank. Winter has already ended, so I began to actively plant trees on my site. In this video, I planted 15 spruces and 10 adult pines. In the next episode, I will continue to plant trees, including fruit trees, and also sow grass. This summer I plan to finish building a small homestead with a sauna and a shower room and start building my own wooden house. I will also start planting a vegetable garden and orchard soon. Thank you for watching. I hope you enjoyed it. Take care! See you soon. Subscribe to be the first to see the new video

This is my 8th episode since I came to this beautiful place in the middle of the forest. In this episode, I called my friend to my site so that he pulled out with a tractor all the roots that grew in the middle of the site. Now there is a lot of swamp here, which greatly worsens the working conditions, but soon I will sow this place with grass. I started building my new log cabin, which will serve as a small kitchen, steam room and shower room. Also this summer, I plan to start building my large log house for permanent residence. In this video, I made concrete pillars that will be a strong support for the future house, I also made the first part of the floor, in the next episode I will start with the insulation of the floor and sewerage. March is a great time for wildlife photography. I set a lot of camera traps far in the forest, so I hope they took a lot of interesting shots that I will share with you in my next videos.

Hello. In today's episode, I continue to build my big shed for my farm near the forest. Suddenly, a lot of snow fell, which surprised me a lot, since in my area snow does not fall faster than January, but this did not prevent me from installing the first roofing sheets. Early snow will mean that this winter will be harsh, so you need to prepare carefully. Tomorrow I will start sewing up the side walls of the barn with boards, this will prevent snow from getting inside, I will also try to install a potbelly stove in the middle of the barn, since this winter I will spend a lot of my time here. In addition to these goals, I have a few more ideas on how to improve my barn so that it functions better on my farm. Thank you for watching.
