New Subscribers, Welcome to the Cabin WinterBornActual: Gidday mate. old DownUnder country boy here. You are bringing back a lot of memories of my father and I out in the bush. Amazing how similar the way you do things are to how I remember it. I guess there are logical ways to do things, though also, sometimes there is more than one way to swing a furry creature with claws that goes meow. Absolutely fascinated with your adventures and I still own most of the old tools you use, though some are of a slightly different design. I still have my father's old champion racing axes, Tasmanians, and the old knives Dad and I made out of D2 and old truck flat springs. And a few made from old files and hack saws. Have to say that white stuff that falls from the sky in Canada makes me nervous though. I don't understand that level of cold. Good on your mate!

Shawn,
On approx 9: 36, it is nice to hear the words your responsibility as a father & a husband. We're approx the same age - I never had the luxury of depending on anybody. I'm divorced and had to raise our son by myself, I knew that the day we split up. Never remarried. But I'm not looking for pity. Our lives turned out exceptionally well & I raised a well-adjusted, responsible kid but, I want to publicly praise you for being the man that you are. Our generation, at least in the USA, someone like you is a rarity.
And because people like to assume things, I'm not hitting on Shawn. I'm merely complimenting him as a true responsible, good man. LOL Just like when a man compliments a woman, I take it as just a compliment and nothing more. Okay, going to watch more of Shawn's videos!

Yikes! You need to invest in a good sewing awle for leather. They allow you to use bigger stronger thread and with a little pratice looks great. You probally know that already but watching you do it like I did 50 years ago I remember how sore my fingers got. Thanks fer tha videos Bro, I really enjoy em. I see you like banjos, I used to make Native American Style Flutes, I got a copy of Ben Hunts directions on making em. I can email you a copy if yer interested. Its all handwork frum a book he published on Indian Craft back in tha 40s I think.

did you know that men like you and i and most free thinking responsible men are considered toxic masculinity? this world is insane these days my friend. ik you dont inject politics into your videos but consider it please. conservatives like me and i suspect you are also are being attacked daily. ik that you vote according to your conscience and please keep up the good work

How much land have you got there? Do you own the land or can you just set up in the middle of nowhere in Canada? I live in NZ and you have to buy land and apply for permits etc to build. Unfortunately there are no forests where you can just chop down a few trees to make a cabin but I'm looking into how I can do it without it costing me a fortune.

Boy does your breakfast look good.
Sunday night here in the northeast of England Ive just came across you and have been watching you for around 3 hours.
Your videos are massively addictive.
Thank you.

I love the paddles on the cabin! Any chance you have a video covering that add on? I have a small cabin and thinking about doing the same. Trying to figure the best way to install them. thanks!

Shawn, for me: You nailed it in this video! Not wanting to be away from people or community, but on your own schedule. I should have done it long ago, now too late to realize it. (age)
