I just got this idea and I think it would be fucking awesome... i need a place where i can go and get lost in creating shit... and for sessions.
So I really want to make a cabin in my woods - hell, it could even be an awesome place to chill late at night with peeps in the summer
Can anyone give m e some ideas how i can do this?

Look up some log cabin making stuff on google. if you are willing to put the time and work into it you can make an awesome cabin to be proud of!
ill start you off...
The trick is to get the logs really snug if you care about staying warm inside.
the guy in the vid isn't the best at this obviously....

Shins, there are a lot of things you can learn how to make from youtube...
But a log cabin house aint one of them.

I think youve got more on your hands than you would even want to think about. First things first being money/property.

Pipe dreams are awesome at first... but when reality hits it gets kind of depressing...

I have a lot of property, that isn't a question-at least a mile of empty woods... money might be a bitch tho, but i do have a couple hundred bucks i could probably spend on this...
they should have cheap cabins online or something... doesn't even have to be wood- just anything that would be spacious and good to hang out in ... im gonna try to google some shit

A couple hundred bucks?!?!
Are you serious?
I hope you don't mind living like Ted Kaczynski.

yeah... a few hundred big ones isn't takin ya too far. you could build a shed for less than a grand or so but anything like a cabin is gonna set you back way more than you're willing to spend

A big investment, but worthwhile and obtainable!

By property I meant property thats yours. Land you own. You cant just drive into the woods and build a cabin out of particle board...

It's not considered "talking him down" when he doesn't have the means to achieve his pipe dream.
Sure, we'd all love to live in a nice log cabin out in the woods, but it takes more than a few hundred bucks and a fleeting interest to make that shit possible.
I'm not a dreamer, I'm a realist. And reality can't build you a log cabin in the woods for a few hundred bucks...
Unless it's a log cabin outhouse.

If he's got land, he's got trees. You wouldn't have to spend shit for cash, other than for a few tools. Get an axe and start choppin
RP, Look up "Alone in the wilderness" the story of Dick Proenneke. Everyone should watch it
--------------------
It's just like the story of the grasshopper and the octopus. All year long, the grasshopper kept burying acorns for winter, while the octopus mooched off his girlfriend and watched TV. But then the winter came, and the grasshopper died, and the octopus ate all his acorns. Also he got a race car. Is any of this getting through to you?

a yurt could be a good idea but they run for 1,000's of dollars it seems...
i got about $1,000 at the moment... but i will have double, maybe triple/four times that in a few months...

im pretty sure this land is mine.... its in my backyard literally and no one uses the woods for anything.. tons of open land- filled with nature and shit. and the area stretches far until you reach the street or any houses

Yeah, that doesn't mean it's your property...
I walk in my back yard for 2 miles until I hit a fence. It doesn't mean that the property belongs to me. In fact, anything after 500 ft in my back yard is owned by someone else. Sure I can hike a mile or two and hit the lake, pitch a tent and spend the night... but the property isn't mine.
This isn't the 1800's. You can't just stake a claim to any property you want... Most everything is owned by someone these days, unless you live in Wyoming or North Dakota. And even then you'll find that the vast majority of land is owned by someone...
