We're twin brothers who love the creative process of designing and building.
Building a New Home Ep. 1 - Exterior Plans
Let's begin with a quick overview of the initial plans for the front exterior of the new home. We have lots of earth-work to do including excavation and grading, and loads of hardscaping including path building, step building and retaining wall building. We even want to put in some low-voltage landscape lighting while we're at it. This front area of the home will be the easiest to do this work on currently, and should not impact future construction of the home.

Here we install the cedar siding that we reclaimed from another job-site. This cedar has been cleaned up and milled with a double groove edge profile to accept floating tongues. The siding is varying widths and thicknesses. After installed, the siding gets torched (Sou sugi bahn/yaki sugi).

Here we prepare the shed siding from reclaimed cedar. First we must finish the stone foundation and install Corten A606 weathering steel as our water table flashing. This flashing gets scribed to the irregular stone below and establishes a clean straight edge to run our vertical siding down into.

Переглядів 25311 місяців тому
We recently purchased a couple pieces of heavy equipment. We imported a mid-sized tracked carrier from Japan, A 2015 Yanmar C30R. This unit weighs in at 2,650Kg (5,843lbs) and can carry 2,500Kg (5,513lbs). We also purchased a 2023 Takeuchi TB260 weighing in at 5,736Kg (12,645lbs). These machines are completely life-changing for us as builders.

We've been wanting Northmen Guild tools, (formerly John Neeman) for over a decade now. Finally purchased a few last year and just received them in the post this week. Well worth the wait! These tools are hand-made and are truly incredible. The craftsmanship and attention to detail put into these works of useful art is top notch. We are very impressed and are excited to add more of these to our ...

They look so good I would feel too unworthy to use them!
How do you know whats a good plane saw manufacturer? I have Japanese saws and absolutely love them but not sure how to find good quality makers and where to buy them. Do yiu have any info to share?
@@micdiva my advice is going with major manufacturers like Tajima, Gyokucho, etc.. they are much cheaper than the handmade small batch stuff and the quality is still tremendous. Can't really go wrong with any Japanese brand
Are you guys done posting to youtube? I really really enjoy your videos and you guys do amazing work
@@micdiva we have tons of videos planned and in the works. Stay tuned, we work full time jobs and film in our free time
@JBrosBuilt awesome really glad to hear this.
If you're scribing the posts on uneven stones, how do you get the posts end up the same height?
We get all the posts scribed first with posts that are taller than they need to be, then strike a level line with a laser at our finished height. Cut on the laser line (finished height)
@@JBrosBuilt Ah, I thought something like that. Thanks for the info.
Putting the mortise in the rocks is as important as having a way to know what the water is go out
Beautiful tools and craftsmanship. I hope they serve you well.
I'm curious as to what kind of stones you are using for the foundation? Nice work.
Thanks for watching! I wish I had an answer for you. Not sure the type of rock, but they were selected for their color and the lichen growing on them. They are very hard, definitely not limestone or sandstone, but they definitely aren't granite either.
One of the best desing for such shed! I would love to get/but SketchUp files for it, to experiment and maybe even build this here in Poland.
WooHoo…nice video too!
Thanks for watching!!
That is nuts to not use a block to push wood through a jointer. I'm shocked that you do this.
That is one hell of a shop. Sorry about the glass.
Thank you very much! Yeah, us too..but accidents do happen
padauk handles, nice combine of machinery and chiseling, whole doors are great! thanks
Thank you for watching
Beautiful craftsmanship!
Thank you very much!
What's the name of that hand tool that bends the metal? Like a mini brake
It's an edge roller. Cool tool for forming your own flashing with unlimited length capacity
It looks very complicated
From the look at the stone nepa ?
❤they are some of the best tools in working ❤
Дизайн, функциональность - это категории вкуса и предпочтений. А вот исполнение на высшем уровне, великолепное. Истинное удовольствие наблюдать за работой Мастера. Да и ролик снят профессионально. Благодарю. Успехов Вам и здоровья.
Thanks for watching and for your kind words
What happened with the frosted left door? Looks like the glass got broken?
Yes, one of the panes of glass decided to break. This is double pane glass and only the exterior pane broke. New glass is on order, but it will be a while before it arrives and I wanted to get the doors installed and this video out now
Cherry 🍒 wood?
African Mahogany doors and Padauk handles. No cherry 🍒. These tropical Hardwoods will be better suited for an exterior project like this..Hopefully. thanks for watching
What makes them French?

Thanks
Very nice old mortiser
Glue is over much.why do you use?
❤I have been careful to put my planes on their side ❤
❤I believe that they are new
Kick back on the jointer or snagging your sleeve would have cost you dearly. After 20 years of using a tablesaw with no major incidents, I did something stupid that I had gotten away with a hundred times before. This time it cost me damage to a thumb and 3 fingers, none of which have feeling in the ends anymore. Use the safety equipment and always maintain a healthy respect/fear for power tools. The damage they will do to you lasts for the rest of your life. Otherwise, enjoy your craft and keep up the good work.
Awesome series!! What is the name of the Metal Bender / Shaper with wheels you are using? Never seen that before!
Edge roller, this one is called the stortz perfect bender. It's nice for smaller jobs like this where you can form any profile in nearly unlimited lengths
Great video!! What size wooden pegs are those? 1/2 (3/4) in? What wood? Did you buy them or make them yourselves?
Pegs are 5/8" oak. Thank you for watching!
@@JBrosBuilt thx!! Did you make or buy them? If purchased, where did you buy them from?
❤ ua-cam.com/video/jLd9a1fRX6k/v-deo.htmlsi=nLFOq7MuxegJ2Cf7❤
Of course you didn’t start looking for the dirt, but it seems like a good decision
❤if it is ok for people to look at weild on a screen why not just use the phone 📱 instead of the goggles?
Why not pull out all the nails for the wood?
❤it might be even easier if they were all screwed
By prying out the woods,from your curf ,do you think that you might be taking the edge off your chisels?
As a person who also sharpens, I am always thinking about the edge that cuts
I know that it’s almost tradition
By locating your scarfs over the top of the post,it will be at the top of its deflection not like being above the base in your mid span of its wave
I only know the bluestone tops?
How do you determine the placement of your posts?
Great video and better job
Thanks 👍
East meats west occidental ❤
Beautiful
Thank you for showing us how you used your router
I also use sketch up
How do you typically design your own products
Thank you ❤❤
You're welcome 😊
Its a working sculpture
Obviously,
Thank you!
We?❤
Did you think about using a chalk line for your screws that are exposed? That is also made into the easier job. But I never tried to make a good video
Masterul
I love the end more than the roofing
@@georgewhitehouse8630 thank you for watching!

Dope!
Thanks for watching!
Bruh, please please please use a push stick/paddle. If that jointer snagged for any reason, your hand would be obliterated faster than you could blink.
Beautiful work!!
Thank you so much 😀
