I start with the bathroom cabinet and make a door frame for the arched door. I make a not so handsome, but tasty first pizza. Spring was promised, but not this week.

  • I've been following Martijn from the beginning - now and then I'd share his adventures with my husband - he would listen politely - then about a month ago I noticed a change - as he flicked through KZhead he'd notice Martijn's video and he's ask "Have you seen this one yet?" Invariably my answer was "yes" - so the last couple of weeks I've held off and we have watched Martijn together ....I admit it's rather nice to have someone with whom to share Martijn's progress and beautiful scenery. Good night all from Mount Eliza Australia - hope you all had a safe and enjoyable break.

  • From this "dark week", as you named it, you actually selected the snow, the beautiful rain droplets on your sky window, the surreal images of your house and trees immersed in the milky mist,and that heavenly music...all these elements plus others, like the fire in your stove, the apple pie( I think it's your mom's recipe, you baked it some time ago in the outside hanging pot-oven)...well, all these elements gathered in your video brought that fabulous, wonderful balance between dark and light, cold and warm, sadness and joy. After watching this video (and others from your channel), one feels contented, even a little sad from not having a bit more of this, but full of hope waiting for the next one. Thank you, Martijn! I wish you a Happy Easter and am looking forward to seeing your next video.Hope the sun will start shining soon.

I am amazed at this skill, talent, work ethic, etc--He seems happy to be so isolated from everyone. It makes me wonder if there is a lovely lady he communicates with who will one day come and live there when the cabin is complete. I know I am a hopeless romantic. But it would be quite a motivation to finish the project! Everything he does is so detailed and precise and beautiful. What giftedness.

  • So today I didn´t watch your video until quite late in the evening, as it was my son´s birthday.He turned 42. It´s quite a different feel to watch your video in the evening with a cup of tea, while I watch the waves break endlessly. Still in my campervan in the north of Spain, where it is actually legal to park on the beach for up to a month. I´ll turn 70 years young next week and want to spend that day wiyh my daughter who lives here. So, Martijn, I always love your videos, but today´s was somehow even more special. Those drone shots of that white winter wonderland, beyond beautiful! I couldn´t help but laugh out loud about the fail with the dove tails.The sort of mistake we all make when we attempt something which is a little out of our depth. But you being Martijn make it perfect in the end. That pizza was surely better than the one I had in the posh pizzeria today. I laughed again when I saw you use a trowel to take the pizza out of the oven. What ingenuity! Oh and that apple pie!!!! After 50 years of baking pies there still are days when the dough tears while putting it into the mould. And you have no problems with it! It looked perfect when you got it out of the oven! To say ´not a bad pie´ is the understatement of the year! And it was great to see that the chickens got to enjoy the apple peels. I didn´t think it was a great idea to paint. varnish and glue the things in the same space where you are sleeping. And ,oh, the shots of the car sliding down that icy slope! I guess your mum didn´t enjoy seeing that. Themountain might say NO, but Martijn says YES, so yes it is. Healthy stubbornness, the way to make dreams and projects come true. Really look forward to seeing your bathroom and door frame next Sunday. Take care , we - the hundreds of thousands of followers you have - need you to be healthy and safe, so we can all have a share of that peaceful mountain life every Sunday!

  • It's been quite a while since I saw someone make dovetail joinery. It's stronger than butt joints, much more stable. Using the grain of the woods keeps the structure from warping as much. Once the bathing area is done, it will make being at home much less stressful. I can't imagine trying to shower in an open air facility in winter. I have done it in summer years ago, wasn't my idea of something good. Your artistic eye makes a huge difference in how everything comes together. Thank you for reminding us what can be done very well.

Loved seeing you using your oven for baking. You did a great job with the apple cake. I think the last one from your videos was the one your Mom made and baked in an open fire.

I even have a cedar armoire that he made for my grandmother that has been handed down to my daughter. I never got to meet him, but watching your videos, it reminds me of the stories the family told of him. Studious, attention to details and self sufficient and generally very quiet.

  • Every week I feel as though my concept of what it means to be an artist, to live with such passion for every aspect of one’s life, is ever expanding.My senses become drunk with joy, to believe that we each have such power to create our vision, to create our own masterpiece of life for ourselves,with faith and hope and hard work. Thank you Martijn for giving me such hope to keep on moving forward in my own dream. You are a true art form in every way, creating, building and living. 🙏🕊💜

    • I lived in the city, in an apartment, for twenty years. It was built in the early sixties and was nothing special as a building. But the kitchen cabinets were made of wood (not MDF or something similar) and the drawers had locked edges. That is how thins were done back then. I'm guessing the next owner probably replaced the kitchen with something contemporary

  • Here in the area where I live (Southern part of Denmark) there is a really long historic tradition for arced doorways - Here the tradition was, simply, to install a 'normal' square, and slightly bigger, door behind it (the door opens inwards), mounted on the inside of the wall - Tradition often calls for painting the inside of the arc with lime (white) - The benefits are an easier build, the strength in the wood is optimal preserved, it makes for a (in my book) nice clean look and, most importantly, there is no space wasted on door frames.

He said he was so concerned with survivsal he didnt have time to think about anything else. Martijn cooks, has chores necessary just to survive and thats before he builds. Most people have never been without human contact for more than a day.or two. He seems content with what appears as a challenging choice in life and i think i understand .

  • I love the constant chatter of your chickens as though they’ve waited all night to tell you their important things. The roofs covered in snow look like they are quilted from above. The apple pie looked delicious. A good way to transfer your pastry from work surface to baking dish is to put the end of the pastry over the rolling pin and work the pin under it a little mote then lift it that way. It’s less likely to fall apart. Although, yours stayed together beautifully Martin. There’s a lovely Christmassy feel to the episode tonight. I imagine the snow has all gone now. Roll on next Sunday to see your finished shower. It’s looking so homely in there.

  • So, you obviously don't need MORE work but here's an idea for your utility room door header - find a green tree on your property, bend it in half, ensure the diameter is at a match for the doorway, tie it into that shape for a few week while it's still growing. Cut it down and keep it tied into the bow shape for a few months. Then untie it and use it for the arched door. You have plenty of time to do things in that manner.
