ALL AMELIA_STRASSBURG AMIYA_STRASSBURG GRANDCHILDREN HAZEL_STRASSBURG JAMEY_JOSEPH JODY_POTTS_JOSEPH JOEL_JACKO JOHN_PINGAYAK LIAM_MATCHIAN LOUISE_MOSES PANITA_PINGAYAK PATRICK_MATCHIAN PAXTON_MATCHIAN STEVEN_TIG_STRASSBURG JOHN PINGAYAK [singing Cup'ik] When I was a young man, I would compose songs. Drumming and singing, just the way my grandfather have taught me. But when the colonization came to this land, they tell us we were uncivilized, unbelievers. We were heathens. I was sad and I threw it away, threw my drum away for six years. I lost a lot of things. One day, someone said to me like this, John, where is your drum? And I was shocked. So, what would that mean for me? A drum is a continuum of our people. It doesn't stop, it keeps going. And he said, Whatever your grandfather had taught you, it's good. [singing Cup'ik] My drum, it was part of me, my songs are part of me. When we were in the womb of our mom, we heard a drum beat. And that drumbeat is the heartbeat of the people. JOHN PINGAYAK [singing Cup'ik] JOHN PINGAYAK This is my fish camp. JOHN PINGAYAK Last year. JOHN PINGAYAK In Typhoon Merbok, what I lost is my weatherport. That's where we would gather food from the river. It was my home, our second home for the summer. One of the important things that my ancestors taught me is that we have to go forward, and we store whatever we can. We're gonna go and revive it, we can't give up. Okay. JOHN PINGAYAK Get the kicaq. JOHN PINGAYAK Unroll that thing there. All right. Today, we have to build a frame for the ten by twelve tent. All right. Help each other. PANITA PINGAYAK Put it up over there. JOHN PINGAYAK If I was doing it all by myself, it's gonna take me forever, but if I have children and my grandchildren helping me, it might take only one day. My fish camp is my way of life. I'm gonna build it today, I'm gonna get it done. I think it's gonna be a good day. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG This one in the middle looks nice! STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG What way'd it go? Ah! Woo! STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Got it. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Right now's a good opportunity to grab some wood, some logs to build a smokehouse with. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG It's the only time of the year where wood is actually gonna come to you. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Don't have the luxury of just jumping in the car and drive to the local lumber store and pick up more plywood or anything like that. Woo! STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG I just drag it to my boat landing. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Hook it up to the four wheeler. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG And pull 'em on in. I got one. Woo, another nice one right there. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG I think I need to cut six uprights. Normally this time of the year, the river should be pretty darn low but we had a lot of rain and a lot of snow packed in the mountains brought the river up high. There's a lot of drift floating around the river. Some of them, I float up next to it and I tie them up to the side. Some I have to drive onto and knock the stump off. It's not too safe so I got to have my life preserver on. Woo! Woo! Pretty easy, most of the time. The Koyukuk River, the Alatna River where we live, it's our lifeline. It's a highway. We get fish from it, we get wood. Pretty much everything we need comes from the river out here in front of us. There might be a good one up in the willows up here. Just have to pull it back out and take a look at it. That's some super nice wood right there. Just about enough to make a smokehouse. Woo, got it. Woo, get back here. Ah. See, it's floating good now. Got two of these. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG I think I got enough out of these logs to get going. Haul 'em back to the house and make a little smokehouse for fish and what not. Oh. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Why not? Woo. JOEL JACKO Seals are one of the more difficult animals to hunt out here because you have to shoot them in shallow water 'cause they'll sink right after you shoot 'em. JOEL JACKO So, you got to get them right when they're on the beach. You need to be super accurate, get a nice clean head shot. Hit. I just got my new rifle. Hit. I've gone seal hunting a couple other times and both times I was actually having problems with my rifle. Hit. All right. I think I got this thing dialed in pretty good now. JOEL JACKO I mean, out of, out of the kayak is obviously a different story. Seals are moving, I'm moving. I was recently just gifted this traditional style kayak. So, I got all these new toys and I kinda want to get them all, you know, primed and ready so I can get out there and try to hunt some seals. This was made by my cousin a few years ago. So, I'm kinda excited to try to get this out to go seal hunting, apparently, they're pretty fast and like nimble in the water is the thing 'cause they're so light. It's skin on wood frame so it's a lighter style hunting kayak. This is the traditional style kayak that's been used in this area for hundreds of years. There's no floatation in here at all, so I guess, fills up with water it's just gonna sink to the bottom of the lake. Apparently, they're kinda dangerous too 'cause they're like, you know, they're kinda tippy. Looks like the epoxy is worn off in this section right here. It might not even be super waterproof anymore. So, I'm gonna get this up to the house out of the rain and start working on it. See if I can get another layer of urethane on it. I gotta get this kayak seaworthy. This stuff is super thick. It's going on it really good, though. I hope this is gonna help me sneak up on a seal 'cause they will let you get pretty close if you're in a kayak a lot of the time. I'll get to work on a paddle now, let this dry. The only thing that didn't come with the kayak was a paddle. That's kind of, you know, something you need for the kayak. Luckily, I got a, you know, two by six that I milled. You know, I got some tools so I'm gonna try to whittle out a paddle real quick. I've been trying to get a seal for a while now just 'cause I want to make mittens or a hat 'cause they got some good hide. At the beginning of winter, I went hunting, I didn't come back with anything. All right. Start whittling away. Hopefully with the new rifle, I got this new boat, it'll be my ticket. I think that'll do it. This is done. I got my old school kayak and kind of a slightly modern paddle and a super modern rifle. You know, a mix of culture and time. Seals won't have a chance. JAMEY JOSEPH That canoe is full of water. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Uh hmm. JODY POTTS JOSEPH It's springtime and the waterfowl have returned back to our homelands. There's that hawk. JAMEY JOSEPH There's a duck. That's a duck coming in. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Oh, that's a duck. JAMEY JOSEPH Yeah. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Our people have hunted this little lake for ducks for many, many years. JAMEY JOSEPH Mark right there. Babe, go ahead and pluck one off. JODY POTTS JOSEPH There's the duck blind, for anyone to use. JODY POTTS JOSEPH There's a duck swimming around behind those willows. Everything that we get, we share. Even sharing a place where we actually get our resources, where we get our food. JAMEY JOSEPH They're gone. To work we go. This canoe has some damage, so I am going to put a couple of pegs in here, like just a couple of willows or pieces of wood and make some kind of patch. JODY POTTS JOSEPH The second canoe has a really large crack that makes it completely unusable. So we have to fix up the less damaged canoe. See if we can paddle out and retrieve our birds. JAMEY JOSEPH Maybe wait until they come out into the open rather than shooting through the brush at them. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Give me one more call, babe. JAMEY JOSEPH Ring, ring. JODY POTTS JOSEPH There it is. Babe! [COMMERCIAL BREAK] JODY POTTS JOSEPH Damn. JAMEY JOSEPH Were you hitting low or high, I couldn't tell. JODY POTTS JOSEPH I think I'm hitting it low 'cause I hit low over there too. JAMEY JOSEPH You hit low both times? JODY POTTS JOSEPH Yeah. Sometimes you don't know that, you know, your scope has been bumped or that your gun is not sighted in. I'm just shooting at that stick to sight it in. High. JAMEY JOSEPH Give it a couple clicks up. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Still shooting high. JAMEY JOSEPH There's always the shotgun. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Little better. Good little lesson learned. It's still kinda. JAMEY JOSEPH It's on. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Okay. Yay. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Oh, man. It's nice and dry. Not too heavy. AMIYA STRASSBURG [inaudible] STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Amiya, come here and hold this up straight. AMELIA STRASSBURG And me, Dad? STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Yeah, and you. Hurry up. Keep your hands on there. Don't let that go nowhere. Hold it tough, be tough girls. I need you girls be tough, tough, tough girls. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Oh. Oh, yeah. Perfection. Okay, baby doll, you did good. Watch your head. The smokehouse, I'm not gonna make it very huge, maybe eight foot (2 meters) by eight foot (2 meters). Want it to where it's airtight enough to hold smoke but enough air flow to go through it to where it's getting some fresh air in it also. All right. I got all these level. I just gotta go grab my crossbeams and get those put up. Oh, yeah. Yup, we're good. We're indigenous people and long time ago, we didn't have freezers to preserve our food throughout the summer, so we dried a lot of our foods. Woo. The smokehouse is just a place to dry and preserve food for the winter. Looks good. Starting to look like something. This design, it's all in my head. No two smokehouses are the same. It's kinda like a fingerprint. This one, when it's said and done, it's gonna be mine. It's gonna look unique and there's gonna be no other one like it. Okay. Hazel. HAZEL STRASSBURG Huh? STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Where you at? Come help me. HAZEL STRASSBURG Okay. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Grab that end. Go to that log. No, no, no. HAZEL STRASSBURG This one? STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Wrong log, wrong log. Yeah. That a girl. Up, up, up, up, up, down. Yup. Ninety will do it. All right. Make sure that don't move big. HAZEL STRASSBURG I like to learn about how to build stuff and about carpentry. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG We got one, two, three, four, five more to do. Going a lot faster now that I got your help. I don't really differentiate between the boys and the girls on the work, you know. In the end, this is the 21st century. Go like this. All right, baby doll. Thank you so much. I don't think I woulda got that done without you. How is it? Is it tough enough? Enough. Try it out, baby, do a pull up. Come on. HAZEL STRASSBURG Nope. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Agh! Almost. All right. Yeah. It can hold me, it can hold a fish, I suppose. I hope I weigh more than any fish we're gonna catch. Now it's time to get the roof up and get my walls on. Hard hat area. JOEL JACKO Well, ha. So far, so good. JOEL JACKO I'm gonna do a little test kayak run. JOEL JACKO To make sure everything's, you know, sealed up. JOEL JACKO Tracker, get down! Tracker, get off the. I can see if I flip this over, uh, probably gonna die. Oh, my gosh. Oh. So, it was very difficult to get in here 'cause if I flip this over, it's gonna take me like ten minutes to get out of it. So, now I'm a little nervous. It's really fast, pretty, pretty tippy. The water's super cold. So. JOEL JACKO Gonna try not to flip over. They should make like some kind of vest you wear that like floats you. Call it a life preserver. Woo. I like it. Really dangerous. I'm gonna grab my gear and go look for a seal. This thing is sweet. I do live a little more of a modern lifestyle out here but being able to incorporate this traditional stuff in when it makes sense, that's a lot of fun to me. Being out here on the water in this kayak, it's so freeing. The waters all calm and it's just so quiet. All the animals are out. You're not scaring anything away. I mean, it's like the reason I live out here. There's only a couple places in this lake where the seals kinda hang out on the beach. It's kinda the only place you can get them 'cause they, you shoot them in deep water, they sink, and you'll never get 'em. There's actually one right there. [COMMERCIAL BREAK] JOEL JACKO He took off. Shooting out of the kayak is way harder than I thought it was gonna be. 'Cause every little gust of wind and then trying to stabilize yourself, there's a lot of movement. Oh. I was able to get pretty close to that seal but not, not ideal shooting situation but, so I think what I might do is I might sneak up on this little, this island. Kinda hang out, see if they come back out. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Last nail, ah! Done. Paint me green and call me a pickle. It's not too bad, you know? I can hear my echo in here. Next time I want to write rhymes, I'll come out here. Some good acoustics in here. Sound the drum. Hey! You know, I'll get some fish nice and smokey in there, I think. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Next step would be to try and get some whitefish to hang up. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Watch out, it's slippery right here. LOUISE MOSES Oh! STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Told ya it was slippery. LOUISE MOSES Yeah. Sliding. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG My people, my family, we're people of the river. Year around we rely on fish. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Look like a good little inlet right here. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Might, probably catch some pike in here I'm thinking. This time of the year we usually be trying to catch salmon but it's against the law for us to subsistencely harvest salmon anymore. All of a sudden, a big chunk of our fish diet has been taken away from us. Trawlers and big fishing companies, they're the ones catching a lot of salmon and they're catching too much, but we're the ones that have to pay for it. Take your time. And so, we're having to move to different fish. Watch your foot now, don't get caught. I'm pretty much fishing for pike or whitefish. You at the end? LOUISE MOSES Yep. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Okay go ahead drop anchor. Woo, easy peasy ma. All right ma, let's go to another spot. LOUISE MOSES I grew up having a fish net out every summer with my mom and dad. Crazy, man so much washed away. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Yeah. LOUISE MOSES All that permafrost melting and changing the whole river, every year. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Yeah. LOUISE MOSES I took a lot of time off when my dad passed. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Might be able to sneak a net in right here. LOUISE MOSES So, I'm really thankful I have Steven now and he's able to take me out and I'm able to relive all the things I used to do with my parents. Is this net gonna be too long? STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG I don't know. LOUISE MOSES Go out hunting and trapping, fishing. It's something that brings me a lot of joy. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Woo. LOUISE MOSES Whoa. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Good? LOUISE MOSES Yep. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG All right. Well, let's let that sit for at least a couple hours. How long we've been doing this type of stuff and never had a smokehouse yet? Now we got one, so let's hope, put something in it. LOUISE MOSES Yeah. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Oh, here it comes. JAMEY JOSEPH I'd wait till it comes out of the willows; your bullets are just ricocheting off willows. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Here it comes. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Sometimes the way Jamey and I hunt is like, we'll be together for a while, and we'll work literally side by side of each other. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Do you want me to go try and scare them this way? JODY POTTS JOSEPH They'll fly and then you can get them. JAMEY JOSEPH Give it a shot. But there's also times where we separate in hopes of greater success and hopes of maybe even flushing up an animal towards the other. JODY POTTS JOSEPH I'm just gonna be a bird dog today. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Flush up birds for him. Usually by springtime our people are out of moose and caribou meat and fish that we harvested the summer and fall before. JODY POTTS JOSEPH These waterfowl are an important food source for our diet. Come on, land. Hopefully he got something. JAMEY JOSEPH All right, I'm gonna go out there and grab those ducks. JODY POTTS JOSEPH I'm waiting till I hear Jamey. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Done with that canoe. JAMEY JOSEPH Yes. I got a spoonbill, shoveler. JODY POTTS JOSEPH I can hear Jamey over there. JODY POTTS JOSEPH So I know he's not right here. JODY POTTS JOSEPH I'm gonna try and get that duck. Got one finally. Duck bird. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Is that a duck over there? JODY POTTS JOSEPH It's a duck. [COMMERCIAL BREAK] JODY POTTS JOSEPH Yep, I got another bird. I saw it stuck, I started trying to poke it with my twenty two and then at the same time Jamey and I both shot. I think I got it. JAMEY JOSEPH Oh, nice. Score! JODY POTTS JOSEPH It happens like that a lot with us, we have more luck when we separate and work together. Jamey once said that it's like we're two wolves you know, hunting for our pack. I kinda like how he says that about us. JAMEY JOSEPH When wolves hunt the hunt as a team. Team work together. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Hi, babe. JAMEY JOSEPH You got one! JODY POTTS JOSEPH Yeah. Finally. JAMEY JOSEPH A spoonbill? Yep. JODY POTTS JOSEPH How many do we have now? Three? JAMEY JOSEPH Yeah. So that's enough for a meal huh? JODY POTTS JOSEPH Yep. It worked good, splitting up. Teamwork makes dream work. PANITA PINGAYAK It looks pretty flat right here. JOHN PINGAYAK Yeah, I think this is good solid ground right here. JOHN PINGAYAK This is all where were gonna build a tent. PANITA PINGAYAK My mom brought me out to fish came when I was two days old. PANITA PINGAYAK She said my belly button had still not fallen off when she brought me to camp. When I come here every year, I heal here. It refreshes my soul, my being. JOHN PINGAYAK Make sure they're in. I don't want them sticking out. LIAM MATCHIAN Right there? JOHN PINGAYAK Yeah. It's an encouragement for me that I'm training my grandchildren. PATRICK MATCHIAN It's just a big joy to be out here. Just brings back a lot of memories from when I was younger. JOHN PINGAYAK We're gonna finish that, uh, frame on and then we're gonna put the tent. We're gonna put the tent in. Everybody agree? GRANDCHILDREN Agree. PATRICK MATCHIAN I agree. JOHN PINGAYAK All right let's do it. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Still there. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG See a beaver laying around earlier I hope we don't catch a beaver. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG That would not be good. LOUISE MOSES Yeah. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Hey, I see some in there. LOUISE MOSES Oh. Oh, wow! It's gonna get away. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Uh uh. Whoa. Sucker fish. LOUISE MOSES Oh, man. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG A bottom feeder. We don't really eat them they don't they're not too tasty. Another sucker fish. Huh, all suckers. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Maybe we can give it to Uncle Pollock for his dogs. Huh? LOUISE MOSES Oh, yeah. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Whoa. Bunch of suckers in the net, couple suckers in the boat looking like. LOUISE MOSES Ah, that water felt nice in this weather. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG What the hell? LOUISE MOSES Ah! You numnuts! Get out of here! STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Yes! Go Home! LOUISE MOSES I thought a beaver. LOUISE MOSES Nope, it's a Sooga. Crazy dog. Go home! STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Huh, what the hell. Where's all the whitefish? Well, we checked the net there's only sucker fish, they're not really eating fish so we're heading back to a second area. Hoping for anything besides some sucker fish. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG One floater is sunk. LOUISE MOSES Yeah. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG If that means anything. I hope. LOUISE MOSES Hey, there's a fish! [COMMERCIAL BREAK] STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Hey! Oh! Caught a big pike. LOUISE MOSES That's what was holding the float down. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Woo. Woo. LOUISE MOSES Whoa. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Whoa. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Big fat one. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG I feel another fish in there. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Nasty looking teeth. LOUISE MOSES That�s a, never know what to expect with this net. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Hey, another one. Huh. LOUISE MOSES Oh, another pike. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG I was really hoping for some whitefish, but pike are good eating fish too. Sweet. Fishing is something that our people have always done it's part of our people it's how we grow and keep a lot of our nutrients. LOUISE MOSES They say dried pike is good. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Uh hmm. Yeah. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Now we got something to put in the smokehouse. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Jamey, you're a good pluck er. It just feels good to get the first ducks of the season and as a native person, you know, we live so close to the land, and we gather our food sources from the land and so very much our present is in preparation of the future. We'll singe the duck and then they'll be ready to cook for tomorrow. My heart is very full and I'm just super thankful to have such an awesome husband and partner that was raised with so many traditional skills. JAMEY JOSEPH Last one. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Uh hmm. JAMEY JOSEPH This one's the smallest one. JODY POTTS JOSEPH Cup of soup. JAMEY JOSEPH Cup of soup. JODY POTTS JOSEPH I couldn't be happier with the blessings that creator has bestowed on us and our lives. Fire feels good. JAMEY JOSEPH It was a good day. JODY POTTS JOSEPH It was a really good day. JOEL JACKO This is the one spot that I know that the seals like to hang out but I'm not really seeing anything JOEL JACKO I'm gonna sneak through here and kinda post up in that tree line and hopefully they come back, and I can take a shot at them. I don't have a back side of that closest island where I shot at the seals. I'm about to try to shoot at the kayak again just because it was so difficult. I didn't realize how difficult it was going to be to shoot out, you know, a moving kayak. So, I switched over to my ground game here. The seals like to come out on these rocks mainly when it's sunny and somewhat calm because they like to soak up the rays. I don't see anything out there now. They're pretty skittish. They might've taken off. I don't even see them hanging around now. I think these seals wised up. I don't think they're going to come back but there's one more spot on my check out. There they are. So, I was able to sneak up to these seals that are on this outcropping. [COMMERCIAL BREAK] JOEL JACKO And I missed. JOEL JACKO Failed again. Even though I missed, it was a good learning experience. Get to test out my new kayak, my riffle. It's not a total loss. You know I learned that seals are, you know, they're hanging out in different spots different times of the year. And you learn a bit when you go out and hopefully it makes you, you know, your next hunt a little more successful. You know, there's like a connection to the past and my ancestors, same hunting grounds different tools. Back home. You welcome me home? Ugh. It's cool to me that I can still do the same things they were doing hundreds of years ago. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Oh, hey, baby. AMIYA STRASSBURG Hi. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Your mama set a fish net. Earlier today caught a pike already. Whoop. AMIYA STRASSBURG That was a big one. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Yeah, it is. AMIYA STRASSBURG Is it a dada one? STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Yeah, that's the daddy. LOUISE MOSES I'm so proud of Steven. He's showing our kids subsistence lifestyle, the life that I enjoy, the kids enjoy, he enjoys. AMIYA STRASSBURG What are you gonna do with the fish? STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG Make dried fish. The whole thing turned out really nice. The pike that we caught and cut; the smokehouse turned out super nice. We're gonna be trying all summer to get some more whitefish, pike, whatever we can, keep this smoke house full and smoky. Cover 'em up. LOUISE MOSES You did a really good job, dad, thank you. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG We did it. PATRICK MATCHIAN All right, we're almost done, Liam, last one. JOHN PINGAYAK Okay, the tent frame looks, uh, really good now. Go ahead put it on. You ready? PATRICK MATCHIAN Let's do this. JOHN PINGAYAK I am close to my creator when I'm here, right here in the tundra. The fish camp it's part of my connections to my ancestors. Look at that. To rebuild it, it's a rejuvenation. Wowee. You guys did a good job! Yay everybody! Yay! PANITA PINGAYAK Yeah! JOHN PINGAYAK It's a renewal. PANITA PINGAYAK It's perfect dad. JOHN PINGAYAK Real perfect. PAXTON MATCHIAN I'm happy. JOHN PINGAYAK And also, it's like reviving our way of life. Now we can fish, right? PANITA PINGAYAK Yep. JOHN PINGAYAK Go, let's go fishing. PANITA PINGAYAK Okay. JOHN PINGAYAK [singing Cup'ik] ALL [singing Cup'ik] JOHN PINGAYAK I tell our young people, thank you for reviving your way of life, your culture. ALL [singing Cup'ik] JOHN PINGAYAK Go forward, look to the future and go there. ALL [singing Cup'ik] JOHN PINGAYAK We've been suppressed too long. ALL [singing Cup'ik] JOHN PINGAYAK Whatever your song is it's important. Our songs lift me up. When I grieve my songs lift me up. ALL [singing Cup'ik] JOHN PINGAYAK Revive your culture. ALL [singing Cup'ik] JOHN PINGAYAK It's not dead, it's alive. [SNAP IN] STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG On there first. One of the more difficult parts is putting this roof on. I got sharp edges all over here. I got a good angle up there, which I don't even think these are strong enough to hold me but I'm gonna try it. I got some tin laying around from when they redid our house. Back in 1994 there was a big flood here. FEMA came and redid a lot of the houses, and they redid the roof here. STEVEN TIG STRASSBURG That�s gonna cut my head off. This tin, just been laying there collecting dirt and everything on top of it since. So, I'm gonna take this old tin laying there for nothing and make some use out of it. Three might just do it. It's looking like a roof. It's a good material still. It found use again, it's, uh, it's got new life. I hate making roofs but it's always a part that needs to be done. I'm pretty much figuring out this build as I go along. I just don't do blueprints; I can't draw worth crap. Getting a little bit of rain, testing out the roof right now.
