Welcome to the cutting room floor!! This B-reel series is a playlist exclusively dedicated to videos never uploaded... in this set, it's 5 days of the garage build. Never uploaded at the time because.. well.. the garage fell down a couple/few times before I got around to uploading any of the footage 🤦🏾♂️ Enjoy!! #desertlife #newmexico #diy #building #likeandsubscribe #homebuilding #homestead #...

Guess what at least? You got a gate!! Great work!
Peace, do you have an email I could reach you at.. I have a couple of questions, if you don't mind.
sowoffgrid@gmail.com
Great advice from John, I like the tension wire idea. I also love the horseshoe hinges🤗
Suggestions: wear shades for sun protection, I noticed you squinting heavily. Everything is coming along nicely 😊
Stay safe...looks fun
Very nice.☺️
Peace brother, We know how tough the climate can be in the high desert. You're doing a great job. Be encouraged 👍🏾
Keep on going !
Wow. Genial!
Happy Anniversary!!!! 🎉🎈 The work and your progress is coming along nicely 🤗
Thank you!! 😊
Happy Anniversary! 🎉📸...Great work 👷🏾♂️🛠...you'll get there with the door 🚪 plse just make certain opening it won't interfere with your sink and shower placement...tfs...
Thank you so much!! I reached out to a friend who gave me a great trick to getting the door leveled properly, I can't wait to try it!
Screw a 1x10 on one side of the gate to fill that gap in the center.
Whoa.. see, even now I still hadn't thought to do that! Great idea, thanks!
Lookin good , hands on is always the best way to learn. I'm already waiting on your next vid.
Right on, more to come!
Lookin good though. Keep going .
Just add 2 o 3 2x4 on hinges to fill that 2 foot gap. For now just to get by.
Thank you!! No.. absolutely no building experience before I started building on this channel. I took wood shop in middle school, does that count? 😂
All this time I thought you were a professional Contractor...you do well 👷🏾♂️🛠...tfs...
aahh oo wee cool.!!
Solar eclipse may make you blind
Wish I could experience this 😭🙏
Your projects are coming along nicely.
Heal up and do some lighter work G. Also get thoes panels on some cement or blocks make weighted platform so you can bolt them in!
I used to go up on that Tramway quite often when I lived in Albuquerque New Mexico
Good luck with your journey
Just watering isn't enough. Put wood chips or small rocks and stones around the roots to keep the water in longer.
I ended up using mulch, but that sadly didn't seem to save them 😕 I recently planted 3 more with a similar result (one in a large pot). I'm thinking I may just have the complete opposite of a green thumb!
What a great idea!
It's not very fast but definitely should be the most effective!
enjoy your videos!!
Thank you!!
Wow, it looks like UA-cam killed all the music in the video😞
Have you thought about getting some containers ? Could use them as storage and as a bonus would double as a wind block.
What a day 💨😩
Definitely a project for another week! There are so many times like these when the creating feels nearly counterproductive or as if we're not quite reaching the goal & that's when we must trust the process ☺️ I'll sit for Q & A. How long was your purchasing process overall?
Why New Mexico?
Failures are to be overcome on the next stronger attempt with more bracing & such😊
Shit bro Looks like where i live
Like your videos ✌🏾
Thank you! More to come!
Take your time and be patient you can build a stronger building .. 3 steps .. concrete walls 6 inch wide 11.1/4 high .. using anchor bolts .. pushing down on concrete with concrete troll & piece of 2×4 tapping concrete down a use a stick to push up & down in the concrete .. makes it stronger .. pre drill wood using 5 inch screws for 2×4's & stain all wood before installing wood
I made maybe a 100 short 1 minute videos of my 8 foot by 12 foot future rabbit cage still collecting materials to build it in May 2024 .... ua-cam.com/users/shorts8_AAUTl_Buc?si=ARDCekBa7jVN_Qz8
Winter time it will be to cold good for a summer shower
Brother always pre drill your wood it will stop wood from splitting over time and makes it stronger
One of those tried and true kernels of wisdom! I've gotta discipline myself to do this more regularly, usually it's after I've seen a couple splits that I start pre drilling again.
@@SettledOutWestOG .. look at my new cage I built so fare 11 days work but will last over 100 years
Need a concrete foundation and 5 inch screws to hold that wood down .. and you have no trees to block wind .. sorry for your pain 😲❤️🔥
Man you can’t leave nothing outside out here 😢 I’m feeling your pain! Looks like we will getting some shipping containers as soon as we can!
Nice work! I look forward to the finished build ☺️
I’m catching up on all the videos so get ready for a lot of new subscribers lol
You can use 5 gallon buckets for your toilet and throw a toilet seat on it and just pee outside lol
I fixed it pretty quickly and easily, it ended up just being a small plug and play valve.
Hey fam! Looks like you got the basics, I like the setup! Looks like we’ll be dealing with this wild weather together but for the most part it’s nice out here! You just have to get used to solving problems 😂
Right! The problems never - ever - cease. This wind is teaching me some life lessons, let me tell you!
