Off Grid LOG CABIN Build / Peeling LOGS for the Bathroom/Sauna (S3 Ep10)
I will be expanding the log cabin, to add the bathroom and sauna after deciding that doing it inside the current structure would take the much needed space for other important things. Myself and a friend, some know him from previous videos, peeled all 12 logs in just one day. This idea randomly came to our mind when we started early in the morning around 7:00 and we continued with peeling until 3:00 in the morning next day. I was getting to the limit with the last logs, but somehow we made it.
Thank you for watching!

I was just thinking "what happened to Nick?", and BAM...Nick is doing all the things...
Sus Nik
You have a true friend👍 🇰🇪
The joke goes that a friend will help you move, but a good friend will help you move a body. I guess a GREAT friend will help you peel logs for 20 hours straight! Glad to see you back!
The chainsaw whisperer and his trusty helper... 35 minutes of bliss.
Haha, I love when you are working with friends, it's nice to see the teamwork and the joking around, and also I love how you are speaking to each other in three languages!
Okay, I have to pause every task right now and watch this video
Hello from Arkansas USA! just wanted to let you know how much we enjoy your videos and miss you when you don't put one out regular. We worry that something might be wrong. We understand you have a life and it is more important than You Tube and patiently wait for the next one. I also wanted to say how impressed we are at all of the old school skills you have demonstrated in the building of your cabin. it is really impressive of how tightly your logs fit together! Thanks again for bringing some joy into our lives and the beautiful shots of your part of the world that you live in. we enjoy those, almost as much as watching you work on the cabin. :) blessings to you and all of your family.
Nice to see you back..Thanks for the vid... Greetings from Belgium.
Inspirational. Hard, honest labor is it’s own reward
Was concerned, glad to see you’ve posted again. Always enjoyed watching! Thx
It’s so nice to see some friends helping out
Chopped down the trees for his home and now he is replacing them with new trees I love it
So happy to see you back! Have missed your videos. Cheers from Tasmania. Edited to add that the "banana shovel" is unique! *smiles* Surely that is a new world record for peeling logs!! Also, why did you plant 2 trees in the same hole, so close together?
I have the same question 🤔.
Because when I pull them out from the ground they were growing together and sometimes I did put 2 in the same hole if one of them wouldn't survive. We had a very dry summer so many didn't make it. Thanks for watching!
@@nikrijavec47 you may want to consider a bed & breakfast - limited to your choice of who. Some of us would gladly pay airfare to help you in some way.
@@nikrijavec47 I have missed watching your videos. Can you show us a photo of your cabin interior to see how much you have done Inside? Your work is always impressive! Please can you upload at least one video per month? When do you consider you will move into the barn? Thank you for planting trees!!! Waiting your next video. Best regards.
These videos are some of the best content on KZhead. I am thrilled to get to see this cabin being built from tall standing trees in the forest, to a place where a family can call home. Thank you for sharing these with us Nik!
Just 35 minutes of pure bliss watching Nik's friend's pants go from incredibly clean to incredibly dirty.
Glad to see that when the task gets overwhelming your help is still helping !!!!!
Yayyyyyyy he's back 😀
My father used to make lacrosse sticks and he would steam bend the hickory and then work them with draw knives, I loved helping and watching. To hear your drawknife peeling off the bark takes me back to the early 70s when I was a young girl.
Replacing the trees you used for the cabin! You’re a good man! Incredible cabin you’ve built so far! Keep up the great work, wishing you all the best from Illinois, US!

Hey Nik, great to see you back. The last video I think...been along time, was just before winter of 2020. You got the roof on and the front door and then disappeared. Many where anticipating that you'd continuing working in the winter. Then when you didn't, we wondered if you and your family were ok; still nothing. Then just before winter...or close to it, you reappear in 2021 to do some log cleaning. Great to see you, hope you're family is well. Look forward to watching whats next on the cabin. Maybe the front porch...the front balcony...or even the flooring of the first and second floor. I do remember the tree stub that you managed to put on the first floor for a table or ? Maybe also the construction of a stone fireplace and the stone chimmey through the roof... Anticipating all of those projects, your fantastic camera work of nature accompanied by that wonderful jazz!!!
That structure will be worth a trillion bucks - love your videos - shows what can be done by hand with a lot of hard work and time!!!
You both have incredible strength, endurance & determination 👏 very impressive!! 🌟
Wow, hard work!! Congratulations on getting 12 logs done in one go of it!!! I bet your arms and hands and backs were very tired and sore after all of that lifting and debarking! So good to get a video from you. I very much enjoy seeing your progress and great ideas in the making. That was great seeing you plant more trees on the hillside. All the best to you. Peace and Good Fortune and Good Health to you and your family and friends. :)
So so glad you are back Nik. God bless and take care! All the way from California.
Good morning from Minnesota USA!! I was wondering when you would put ot your next video. Glad to see you back!
extreamly great to see you again ...really missed your videos my friend...greeting from Estonia ....
Brava!! So glad to see you back Nik..
I was wondering...where are you??? So we have something interesting to watch today.
Very happy you are posting again, nobody peels a log better than you! I hope all is well with you and yours. And very glad you have help with this pile.
pure bliss! you are truly an inspiration on how to manifest, where thought flows, energy follows! thank you
I think that's the best video yet. The editing and everything is so fine and smooth. Love it! Thank you Nik
happy to see you back! A lot of people don't plant trees back and it's good to see you planting them. Great video!
Glad to see your back and OK.👍
Glad you're back Nik. I've missed your videos. You're so entertaining and calming at the same time. Keep on crushing it! Cheers from Nova Scotia Canada❤️🙏🏼🇨🇦
Nick, what an awesome job you have done so far on your cabin. There are those out there that can't stand it when someone does something exceptional and is acknowledged for it. Don't let the negatives who only comment because it's the only way they can draw any attention to themselves. People like that have never done anything worthy of recognition and probably never will. Don't let them rain on your parade. Keep doing what you do, we love it.
keep them coming nik
Good to see you back up loading, assuming you have electronic bugs sorted. Had been wondering the last few week. Always enjoy the mountain views. And at some time you should work through the night for your own project . Thanks for the vids.
I am glad you are back! I dream about visiting you and see this wonder with my own eyes and not through the camera. The house seems to be small on camera, but in the shots where you have to climb you instantly realise, that it is not the case! Calming work, peaceful atmosphere, clise friends. What more does a man need...
Glad to see you back
Nice..always remembering nature provides everything on this great earth. We take we give back.
Glad to see you are well 👍🏴
Great to see you again. Awesome teamwork,and your editing is still magic. The mountains,clouds, with guitar music pure magic👍. Thank You Nik
It is good to replenish the earth! Great job.
Monumental effort for one day! That would have broken me!
Great to have you back! keep it up!
as you plant the new trees for the next generations... you also teach the next generation your skills.. nice
Nice to see you again Nik. Great to see even more progress and trust you are well. You are a great example of a work ethic!
Happy to see you back Nik, Glad you’re ok and back to work on the cabin. 😁👍
Now that's how you start off a Tuesday morning! So good to see you!
Good to see you again Nik! Stunning scenery and lovely wild flowers, beautiful videos!
Delighted to see more of this beautiful story unfold. I go somewhere joyful when I watch your films.
Here because for the past week I've been listening to your natural sounds videos to help me sleep and this evening noticed the link to your personal channel. I am pleasantly surprised and even more comforted and inspired. A life I aspire to. Thank you for sharing and be well!🤗💜
Just the beginning for the 'logs peeled' in that place!😁
Friend: I'm better than anyone Nik: True,if there was no me! Funny. Blessings from New Orleans.
Nice to see you back at it - every day you become closer to your goal. Your cabin is truly an accomplishment and great craftsmanship! Keep up the good work! Can't wait to see how you incorporate this addition!
Good to see you healthy Nik! always hard at work, its very inspiring! and ahead of the game with the trees, up in the mountains its a good plan to put 'back ups' in for better odds... take care and best to your family!
Welcome back Nic! Do you think that having some pegs to place in specific places would have helped? This project is going to be another good one. I look forward to you posting the video. Have good days!
Really great to see you back Nic, hope all well love to you and your family
So happy to see you back! 👍
Great job Nik. Nice to see you planted trees for the ones you used.
Thanks for coming back Nik, the peeling looks and sounds very satisfying; however my 70 some year old muscles say glad it's not me :). Charlie

Good to see you again. You and your friend must be in really great shape to be doing this kind of work. Don't know how you both managed it. Great job guys!
Drago mi je da te ponovo vidim Nik. Pozdrav iz Bugarske!
Good job guys!
the sheer amount of grit you guys have to keep this up is almost insane!
Es ist schön Mal wieder was von dir zu hören bzw sehen...
Thank you so much for putting out more videos. Ive missed it so much. You are an inspiration.
nice to see that you're still strong and spirited to forge ahead, I'm looking forward to see that sauna build (I've been thinking about one myself, only thinking and for some time now I'm afraid...) Can you comment on why you are planting these trees so close to each other ?
It’s bc if one die the other will grow,is difficult to grow a tree in the forest
Same?
So great to see you back posting on your channel again...thought we'd lost you. Peace, from a fan in Singapore!
Great to see you back missed the vids 🤪🤪🤪
😊SO GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN👍❗❗❗❗❗❗🇺🇸

Glad to see you again.
Good to see you uploaded a video Nik 👍👍👍🇵🇭
Nice to see you back at what you do the best a another log cabin build which is great for us to watch.

Glad to see you! This will be one nice bathroom. Your night editing skills are superb Nik. You've come a long way. I'm enjoying the process. Been with you since falling trees in the snow
Good to see you back. Happy Holidays
quel courage !!! Tu construis ton futur, celui de ta compagne, et celui de vos enfants ! C'est beau, c'est bien !
im so happy to see you and your log home again. It was a long time! And I'm glad you're attaching the bath house to the main house. I never understood why some people have it as a separate structure. I hope you had a great summer and your family is doing fine!
