The Biggest Mistakes That Have Happened on ‘Maine Cabin Masters’
Master Builder Chase Morrill has big Phish to fry. His foreman, Ryan Eldridge, is a superfan of the jam band Phish and tonight they take on the drummer’s cottage. It’s a challenging project, so let’s hope they don’t relive these past snafus.…
Gimme shelter
Morrill once removed a roof from a cabin ahead of a storm: “Our tarps blew off and the rain soaked everything.”
Roadside Assistance
While transporting a site’s furniture, their truck broke down. After the tow came, someone locked those keys inside the vehicle. Recalls Morrill’s sister, designer Ashley Morrill-Eldridge, “We were stuck with two useless trucks!”
Big Chill
During a winter project, they took locks off windows to stain them. Overnight, “they all blew open,” Eldridge says. “When we returned, it was 20 degrees inside.”

I am relatively new to the Maine Cabin Masters, but am totally hooked on the show. Started watching from season 1 a few weeks ago, and am now on season 7, and am dreading it coming to an end. Love all the great people, and their interactions; Ashley seems to have all of them (except Ryan, of course!) as brothers, not just Chase. And absolutely adore the dogs, Gus and Charlie and Susie. Lost my mixed lab of 15 years 2 months ago, and it makes my heart happy whenever they're in scenes. They are all true master carpenters, and the show is so refreshing after nonsense like House Hunters. Hope MCM is on for a long, long time!

Generators are usually used. It shows that in most shows. In the beginning of each show they do discuss the water, electric and sewer. Some camp owners will do the sewer separately from what cabin masters do. Best thing to do is call their office to see what they do in each instance. Some older cabins don’t have access to electricity—- they are off grid. Do you know what that means. A lot of cabins / camps have been grandfathered on some improvements
I know the cabin masters do get permits and are limited on outside improvements

Is Magnolia Network removing MCM and replacing them with Inn The Works?

I love the Cabin Masters and recognize that weeks long projects have to be shown in an hour but there are two areas I would like to see addressed in each episode: 1. power, water and sewer of the cabin and 2. the tools used especially with the power source of the power tools used.

I started watching about four months ago and have the series set on DVR. I found it a great escape from the events of the day. I love the camaraderie and watching the beautiful scenery and the revamped cabins....I grew up on the coast of Mass and went to Ogunquit etc. but never into the interior....thank you all for an enjoyable show....living in VA now makes me want to go north this summer.ana

I certainly hope not. Both shows can live on the network. Alike but different isn't a bad thing. I would really miss the MCM if it got cancelled. I would hope, that if Magnolia is foolish enough to cancel it, that another network would pick it up.
