2-Level A-Frame Cabin Build TIMELAPSE - Tiny House Start to Finish

After almost 3 years of planning, scavenging materials, and prefabricating the walls in my garage, this short time lapse video shows me, my wife Alice, my neighbor Eric, and my 85-year-old dad Jim, raising the walls of a 2-level, 15-foot-tall, 110-square-foot tiny house A-frame "off-grid" cabin (in my backyard). You'll also see me installing the windows and a custom front door I built from scratch, getting it all dried-in before winter. It's the beginning of what I hope to further develop into a self-sufficient backyard homestead, including a sustenance / survival garden, as well as composting and rainwater collection systems... Maybe some chickens and bees too. Because you can never be too prepared.

After a brief intro, there's no talking. So you can turn off the sound if you don't want to hear the music. However, many of those watching who are old enough to remember will surely appreciate and enjoy the homage to the late great Benny Hill.
