ROOF BEAMS | Building a Tiny House in Spain | CABIN BUILD SERIES Ep.7 | V.24

Video Description

We're finally back to the off grid cabin build project after a few months focusing on other projects on our finca in Spain. In this update we get to work on the roof, installing the light steel frame I beams. Using Light Steel Frame to build our tiny house has proven to be quick and fairly simple so far. The metal framing is easy to cut to size and screw into place with metal to metal screws, without too many fancy tools. And the tiny house roof installation went well, without issues. Why are we building a tiny house from Light Steel Frame instead of wood? Well, it’s light but strong, and simple to construct. Light Steel Frame house construction is so fast and easy, and costs about 30%-50% of the price of wood, depending on which country you're in. Plus, you only need a few good quality tools to build a cabin with LSF! - - - - - [SUPPORT US] Become a channel Member for extra updates, behind the scenes footage and sneak peeks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn8TlettWet8effWGxMkznA/join Join our Patreon family and receive early access to ad-free videos and exclusive updates: https://www.patreon.com/smithsdalefarm/ Or if you prefer little one-off gift giving as a thank you for the work that goes into making our videos, you can support us via Ko-Fi here: https://ko-fi.com/smithsdalefarm We're building a 2m x 4m cabin, to serve as a temporary home as we renovate the stone almacén in Spain into the tiny house of our dreams.

In 2015 we moved from the UK to Barcelona, and after a few years enjoying the busy city, sunny beaches and snow-capped mountains it's time for a new adventure. We've recently bought land in Spain, in the mountains of Catalunya, to build a mortgage free tiny house and start a self-sustainable off-grid homestead to live off the land. Music: Artlist.io
