Moving a bit of dirt with my Red Rock Mini Towable Backhoe
You are correct!
I enjoyed very much watching your video. Both of you are hilarious and compliments each other. A perfect couple!
And HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Where's the second video?
its linked to the end of this one ....
Very nice ❤
🎉 Mitchell's Soup Company is the best soup ever. That ones my favorite. Cabin looks great!
One things for certain…you still have decent eye site lol. At our age we dont always get the bit of the mark. Shop looks great. It’s difficult to manage when we have so much important “stuff”
Cool! Your Chauffeur, J Bruce, Hollywood North 🇨🇦 Vancouver
You can keep adding the poly tarps but they will rot too.All your exposed parts, even near the bottom will rot too. On my old shed, I used a new bale tarp from Princess Auto and replaced it every 2 years. When I needed a bigger shed, I got a 22'X32' Shelter Logic shed with a heavy duty PVC tarp. Ten years in and it has held up very well. I also built wooden ends that are hidden under the original ends, and on one end I framed in a 13' garage door. The PVC is a lot more money but it is worth every penny.
its been almost a year already and the white tarp looks like I just put it on ....Im doing an update video soon ...it was a $50 tarp and 20x20 which was long enough but only comes halfway down the sides ....next one will be a 20x30 boat tarp that is about $100 to buy . cheap investment for at least a year at a time ....ill just keep layering them for a while lol Shelter logic sent me a new cover under warranty ...I sold it
The best thing to do is get corrugated fiberglass or tin panels and secure them with self tap screws
I like the white tarp idea, blends in with the surrounding area better especially when the snow starts flying
My house and garage are both grey and white
There just mad they didn't do it when there 50k garage shingles are blowing off. I like it . Cheaper and good the better
Yes Sir
Pretty neat setup Sparky! When you get your garage organized you can come and do mine. Lol.
Great job on that tent 👌🏽
Thanks, I’m happy with how it turned out!
You guys are charming as hell
Thanks so much !!! Thanks for watching
I just stumbled on your channel and subscribed. I have access to used (free) metal roofing and used it to cover my 12 x 20 frame. To hide it from code enforcement and the taxman I covered it with the tarp, keeping it "temporary".
Great idea lol thanks for watching
The only problem that building has is the UA-cam comments.
ready to do an update video its been a year already .....u wont believe how good it still looks !!!
Really nice vent setup 👍🏻 as for organizing the shop, my only suggestion is to have something to keep the sparks from getting too all those flammables, especially in such a tight space when grinding, oxy/act cutting inside, trust me I know how fast it can get out of control.
Nice. Just got this video. After 10 months, how's it holding up? The OSB front door is a 🤦♂ "Why didn't I think of that?" Ya. I have a portable garage and hate rolling up the door. I'm going to do the OSB wall "but" I'm going to go a step further and build an actual garage door since I park my car in it. Where I'm at, it snows too much and swing out doors will be a problem. I don't want to shovel all the time. Thanx for sparkin the ol thinker. 👍 Edit: Forgot to mention. Mine collapsed on my car twice so I rebuilt the structure with 2x4's then covered with original tarp. Still never thought of an actual wall for the door opening 🤦♂. Edit Edit: Garage door will be made of 2x2's covered with tarp to keep the weight down.
Still looks like the day i put the white tarp on ....
Looking great. You might want to drill through a couple of the tabs and put in a pop rivet in to keep it more solid or if you notice the tabs are getting loose.
Thanks for the suggestion, will keep that in mind!
awesome video loving the workshop looking forward to seeing what your going to be doing with your TIG as in previous videos cheers .. from Tasmania Australia
Cheers back from Canada! Thanks for watching.

Finally a channel with princess auto and not harbour freight.

How's she goin'? I hear ya about re-organizing the shop. I have been up to my oxters in shop renos since last summer. Your exhaust vent is a great add!! Nice idea and having it supported that way will sure be nice since you'll have both hands available now for working. Your shop is looking pretty nice!! Thanks for sharing. Take 'er easy!!
Thanks for watching ...it will look good when done
You must be a celebrity in gb by now lol . Great job workshop looks great 👍

Hi yall😊 Arts and crafts with Sparkey. Lol I like the fact that you can work with your hands. Bill can too. I don't think many of these snow flakes do these days.
LOL
Its nice to be able to make your own stuff for sure Sherri
Looks good ! Nothing like being organized and I'm not right now ! Ha. God Bless !!!
Hey Dave, pretty awesome that you are going to finish the kitchen. Speaking of Boss of the Swamp, I've been a subscriber of his from the very beginning of his channel. You should also watch his "Backwoods Logic" series videos a great wealth of knowledge in them. He also gives great knowledge about setting up a garden and the process of it which might help your garden. Cindy seems to allows cook some amazing meals! Great video you both.
That is awesome!
Hey Sparky! The Boss of the swamp is a legend when it comes to off grid living. It's his life since forever. You guys always cook up very delicious looking food.
Lookin good! 👍
Thanks 👍
