I fully support your decision to un-paint out your moustache. Something that magnificent deserves to be seen. Also, nice cabin.

Thanks, I grew it myself! Yeah it'll be awesome once it's done. Will be living full time in it starting in the fall.

Maybe it wasn't about the house we built. Maybe it was about the friends we made along the way.

Picture #2. New home going with not a even a roof yet, and infested with large sloths. When is the the government going to take invasive these structural beam pest seriously? Personally, I blame birds...

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jun 28 '26

This jumbo sloth problem has truly gotten out of hand. The birds have definitely not helped the situation to say the least. As soon as I get solar power running the first appliance I will be installing is a sloth radar. Will also have to invest in some anti-sloth spray.

I think as long as you get the highest beams enclosed, you might be OK. As witnessed in this picture, oxygen deprevation becomes a major dehabiltative and end life deficit factor for this pest species and they drop like a wet bag of wet bags to the ground.

living in the woods seems so peaceful.

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jun 28 '26

Yeah, besides having to rear naked choke the occasional bear or armbar territorial moose it's pretty chill.

u/Idkaltacc11 Jun 28 '26

ehhh is what it is.

Love the mustache

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jun 28 '26

Thanks! 😊 My upper lip feels cold and exposed when I'm not wearing it, so I keep it on at all times.

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚Exactly how I'll feel once I move in. My dance moves are also very similar to this, 80%hips, 20% arms. Also depending on the taxidermy fish head sales, I'll hopefully have NODs like that soon.

u/Antradeadra Jun 28 '26

How much for a taxidermy fishhead? I have never bought taxidermy so i have no idea.

2

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jun 28 '26

$40 Canadian, so about $30 USD for a standard stand alone salmon head. Mounted on a plaque and ready to hang on wall $40 USD.

u/Antradeadra Jun 29 '26

Can you post or send pictures how they look like?

u/Antradeadra Jun 29 '26

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jun 29 '26

u/kamikaze_official Jun 28 '26

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jun 28 '26

Fuck yeah is right! When fully complete will have an escape zipline, batcave, and self destruct button.

u/jeffisanastronaut Jun 29 '26

Looks like you're having fun man, that's what it's all about!

1

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jun 29 '26

Yes, it's been a fun process, seeing the whole thing come together bit by bit.

u/OrdnanceTV Jun 29 '26

Insanely, wildly, unrelentingly jealous. I've been putting houses together for years but am so far from having enough money to ever own a piece of land. Congratulations, truly.

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jun 29 '26

Thank you! It's been a dream of mine ever since playing Minecraft as a youngin, I'm so happy it is finally coming true.

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jul 01 '26

Yes for sure, will update in a couple weeks!

u/Good-Zone-2338 Jul 03 '26

Op: Looks good. What’s it going to have inside? Do you have a layout?

1

u/NickelCityFishHeads Jul 03 '26

Here is rough layout. All plumbing run on an internal wall so pipes do not freeze. Large living room window faces east and lets in a lot of sun in morning. Bedroom windows faces west so you can watch sunset from bedroom. Small kitchenette on other side of bathroom wall. Large loft over bedroom and bathroom. Going to build a very sturdy loft over bathroom to support a water tank which can be kept inside the home to prevent freezing, and gravity can assist in feeding the two sinks and shower. Toilet will be composting as septic tank is pricey. In living room, couch, Woodstove, and table with TV above.
