Stone Stairs & Masonry / Off Grid CABIN Building (S4 Ep18)
It was a great challenge for me to build the stone stairs. I've never before worked with stone and cement like this. Learning how to cut and shape stone was fun and above all you need patience to get the stone to split the right way. It turned out ok for first stone work at my log cabin. I've done some mistakes that you probably won't notice in the video, but I was able to fix them.
Thank you for watching!

Peeling Another 40 Logs / LOG CABIN Building (S4 Ep15)

In the previous two videos I've been cutting down the sick spruce trees and I decided to use the smaller trees and the tops of the bigger trees as logs. I had to peel the bark before the logs would start rotting. Peeling approximately 40 logs was a long work. Now I have the logs ready for future projects, like the balcony and porch, outdoor kitchen,... Thank you for watching! // My Second Chann...

I had to cut down these trees due to the bark beetles infestation last year. Some trees were dying, some were already dead, but I had to cut all that were showing the signs of being sick, to prevent the spread. Bigger logs I'll cut into dimensional lumber and the rest I'll use to finish the balcony and front porch at the log cabin. Thank you for watching! // My Second Channel: @nikrijavecmoment...
Bathroom Teak Flooring, Installing Windows,... / LOG CABIN Building (S4 Ep12)
Просмотров 140 тыс.2 месяца назад
My wish was to have a wooden flooring in all of the log cabin, but I was not sure what wood could work in the bathroom. At the end I decided for the teak wood and from what I was told it should be lasting the longest and it also expands almost nothing with the change of humidity and with contact with the water. It was a bit tricky laying it down and it had to be installed on top of a water-tigh...

The work in the bathroom/extension of the log cabin continues and my wife had a really creative idea to finish the bathroom and some other walls in the log cabin. She had to learn a lot of new things and how to use tools she never used before to make her ideas into reality. There was a lot of angle cutting to fit together all the geometrical forms and a huge challenge to finish it all. Her sati...

It took me over a year from the start of this project to the completion. I worked on this project every now and then, when I found the right piece to fit the puzzle. It's hard to imagine at the beginning what I had in mind, but it was worth the time I've spent cleaning all the strange pieces of wood and installing them to create a tree like staircase/playground for the kids. I had this idea fro...

I was not sure if I'll be able to close and insulate the bathroom before temperatures go below zero and the first snow storms come, but with a help of a few friends we did it in time. We also lived without the electricity and other basic commodities of the 21st century, that's why I decided to put the editing and uploading videos on the side for some months.

The winter is approaching and I hope to have the bathroom addition closed and insulated before the cold weather. Until now I closed the flooring, installed the insulation and started framing the walls.

Everything Rik builds is a work of art
Great video as always Nic! Anyone know what type of stone this is?
Excellent work, dogs, cats and chickens all living together, and a beautiful meditation. Marvelous. Thank you Nik!
that last beauty shot was DESTROYED by the link overlay! they REALLY need to find a better way! youtube is tarnishing FAR TOO MANY video endings.
so so
Very very beautyful stairs nice work again . And hope you get a healthy baby..
The largeness of the stone steps complement the size of the house! The seasons changed. This must have taken you 6 months or so! So beautiful.
Very good my friends...
That inspector and the three code enforcement officers didn’t leave you alone for a second! It’s amazing you got anything done. Nice work.

can we get a blooper reel of whenever you do something dumb or injure yourself
Oooommmmgggg what? You are a light in the dark of homesteading good sir
nice cat :D
I watched all of Sean James' cabin build, and The Outsider, and now I'm watching yours! Thank you.
That was a labour of love. Looks brilliant. well done
Ciao, hai dei capo cantiere eccezionali, 😂 soprattutto il gattino, è adorabile. ❤ Comunque complimenti, hai talento in tutto ciò che fai. Anche il lavoro con la pietra è eccezionale. Veramente bravo. Un caro saluto dall Italia. ❤
Why you put stairs at backside (Bathroom), BEFORE you finish the outside wall?
Great job 👍
The top step isn't centered... fix it ha ha. Beautiful job dude... absolutely amazing!!
Did I hear Nik say he is without skill!!!!!!! That, could not be further from the truth. and as for the work ethic. you are the envy of all😊
The level of relaxation watching this episode was super high. For me the cat stole the show 😁! Amazing work, you give me so many ideas to work with around my own house, and I thank you for that! WELL DONE! 👏👏👏
Good morning from Minnesota USA! Great episode!
Well, the cat and chickens definitely kept you company. Very sweet. Fantastic job on the steps, very impressive.
When you're finished with all the stone you're like "Yabba Dabba Doo!"
A piece of art. Nicely done!
well done my friend, masonry is a lost art.
Congratulations on the new baby!!!!!!
Impressive stonework! I felt like watching old masons guessing how to make castle walls and you were really fast at getting the knack of it. I'm sure the cat was more than happy to watch your work.
Magnifique ! Formidable ! Congratulations ! Félicitations pour ce très gros travail parfait ! Merci !!!
nice job Nik all free hand Art work
Master Stone Mason 100% 🏆✨💪😎👍🏁⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🥇🏆
Nic, have you been hired to build a log cabin in your area. Your work has astonished me.❤
What a pleasure it is to see a man do the work to learn the skills needed to build using a material he has never used before. You are an example to everyone that has the desire to build, create and enjoy. Thank you for your hard work and hope you have many years of enjoyment from your efforts.
Always amazingly beautiful!
Super work,Superman😊
Stunning views. Beautiful stonework.
When I grow up, (I’m 41) I want to be like Niko
Very beautiful work. For someone who has no experience in stone work, you did a great job.
Love your films, love your home even more. A true artist. Thanks for making our viewing so entertaining.
Your steps turned out great! A beautiful addition to the front of your house. Your little orange helper was fun to watch too!
Architect, engineer, carpenter, and mason but now to find out that Nik is also the chicken whisperer is most impressive.
Your a gifted craftsman
Nik I just like your originality of building your off grid home👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I'll never understand how Nik does all this work and never looks or acts tired. I would love to have half his work ethic. It's not even work ethic, it's that his body can keep up with his work ethic!
Buen trabajo
I really like to look. I think your "Supervisor" approves.
LOOK!!!!!! did I hear Nik say he has no skills?????? WHAT!!😂😂😂😂😂
That is never going to move lol
Nik you’re the kind of guy who I love to hire to do odd jobs that I can’t even think about tackling all day you’ve no skill in don’t something but that you’ll give it a good go and you 99 times out of 100 times build a masterpiece that you didn’t know you could do. You are all craftsmen living after your time just don’t realise it. Brilliant job even with your fancy labourers. 😂😂😂😂
