Not gonna watch the Aussie Mitre 10 vids anymore, landed here by mistake. The Kiwi videos are heaps better and easier to understand. This Aussie bloke is well impressed. Go NZ!!!
I'm amazed your 'followers' aren't higher! All your guys jobs are great! I know how to build all of your projects also being a carpenter but still love watching them all 👍
@@DiscoFang Maybe for some across the pond from the us, I follow just fine. Measurements really don't matter so much so long as you do the job correctly. I sometimes use metric where being a bit more exact is important. For a job like this, use imperial or metric, whatever you know. It does frustrate me when working on a vehicle where it seems they use both metric and imperial fasteners.
@@douglasvamateurradioandmore On Japanese vehicles it can go another layer. JIS units come into play. Ever wondered why your Philips screwdriver doesn’t seem to work well on some Japanese cars? Because they’re not Philips or even posidrive.
Good Job well done. Might suggest filling the post hole concrete approx 2 in. above grade (using sono-tube collars for trim). Purpose of this is to allow water runoff and prevent pooling and rot of the uprights over time.
Really good tutorial mate. Thanks, I may give a it a go after watching you build that nice pergola. Cheers and thanks for "all" your great videos. A fan from San Diego, CA
great job! make sure you figure out your exposure before building pergola. important to know your sunset/sunrise to make pergola effective. otherwise its just a nice looking lawn decoration...
You've got a nice job on this! I appreciate your effort just to make us learn from your skills. Keep up inspiring people. Glad to share this post to all of my best buddies. Great details!
sorry to be so off topic but does anyone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I was stupid forgot my account password. I love any help you can give me!
@Andrew Karsyn thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Hi Karrina, If you wanted to put posts in your planter boxes to hold a pergola you would need a lot of concrete in the bottom of them, at least 450mm deep, so that would make your planters very high. You would also need to have drain holes through the concrete to allow water to escape, so all in all you could but it would look a little strange. It would be best to concrete posts into the ground the build your planters around the posts. Hope that helps. SR
I never been to NZ , every thing I see and hear about it , I like a lot , would love to visit one day . The other thing is I love building , been doing it for a long time , so buddy job well done , easy and not over thought . Also turned out very nice . I’m a new subscriber, see you around the YT .

I built this exact same pergola following his design and it looks awesome. Except im in northern BC and user red cedar. I also used screws instead of nails. Worked awesome.
You know those cooking shows where the person just has all the bowls of ingredients filled up, ready to go, it looks so easy, and the turkey just comes out of the oven in two seconds? That’s how I felt watching this video knowing good and well I would not be able to do it that easily lol.
Stan's pretty smooth and makes it look simple for sure; but give it a go and let us know how you get on. We're always here online or in store to give you some tips ^Kane
Hi! Is it alright to allow wood to be in contact with concrete? Isn't it necessary to isolate it somehow to prevent moist from going into wood? Thanks!
I always thought it was standard practice to put few inches of gravel before the concrete, for drainage. Either that or bolt them to metal brackets set in the concrete. Won't these posts rot over time (quicker I mean).
As he shows, they are sitting off the ground on a couple of bricks or blocks, then concrete floods under and around them. Plus they are H5 treated posts meaning they can sit in water logged areas, unlike H4 and on. H4 & 5 are good for well over 25 years against rot and decay.
hola amigos muy bueno su trabajo excelente ,muy buena y facil la forma de enseñar como me gustaria trabajar con ustedes se aprenderia mas el manejo de la carpinteria
I'm thinking of building one like this so that i can put solar panels on it rather than my shed/radio shack. The problem is where i want to put it, i cant dig down because of the easement. It would somehow need to be moveable. Would I be able to use those raised concrete bases and level them out?
I've got a build to do like this, but it's not on grass. It's on tarmark. We're using metal fence post holders, what would be the best way to make sure they do not break free of thier holdings in strong wind? (They will be bolted in place.)
I thought you were gonna put your tape down across the hole before you started filling with concrete so you could get concrete on your tape as well as the paint Einstein.... Well done mate, that's very nice.
By watching this tape I was able to build my pergola in 4 days. Thank you for the tips. James Wilnau 67yrs old
Im going to try to make one
Congratualtions
@Ethan Pandel there should be a i built a pergola community.lol
I am curious how much it costed you
One of the best videos I have seen. Beautiful surroundings, straight forward tips, clear video.. no trying to be funny.. just a good how to!!
We all need a friend like this guy.
I watched this about 10 times before and during my construction- thank you!
Glad we could help out 👍 ^Billie
Mitre 10 NZ have great videos. This guy needs his own UA-cam channel
This was my first project. Been using your videos ever since!
Such awesome feedback, stoked as this was a success for you! ^Cam
Just used this video to build our pergola here in Texas. Easy to follow, even if our vocabulary is a little different. Cheers, mate!
We used it too, only ours has a sway on it, not sure what's gone wrong 😔
@@christinaedwards3806I’d say you’re posts aren’t set deep enough in concrete, or the earth around them is too soft
Because of your video I’ve built the most beautiful pergola in my backyard. Thank you.
My husband used this video design and it was fantastic...he made 3 of them and he wasn't a builder...thanks very much for doing the video!
If you're interested here are some great woodworking plans you could use: HootWood.com
I will ask my husband to do this project this summer. Hope we can success also. :-)

My husband is going to build one and we using this video as a guide...he's not a handy man...I can't wait 😊
Great video. You know, if we really wanted to make America great again, we'd get smart like the rest of the world and use the metric system.
We do in surgery. Not sure why we don’t do it everywhere.
Yea so smart this guy put flowers around the post . Yea watering them and the sprinkler system is not going to rot that pegola out
I have seen some helpful construction video on UA-cam, from the States.
Metric system sucks and confusing inches are soooo simple
@@jasonnester9514so confusing? all you have to do is be able to count. Smh
I got my pergola built by followed your instructions , lots of compliments 👏🏻👍thanks for the video 🙏
Glad to hear it, nice work 👍 ^Matt
What is this guy hooking his tape measure too in the grass? This guy is magic.
haha, exactly what I saw..... then, I realized he had a nail already in place..... bummer!
Dang I never saw the nail, way to ruin the magic for me. Lol

Here are some great woodworking plans that you can try out: HootWood. com
a nail is already sent in the grass before he used the spray can.

Some men are so talented with a measuring tape all they need is a single blade of grass to run accurate measurements!
Right wtf was that about!
There was a nail in the ground
@@jamescoupland667 but it was still funny
😂
And without the need of checking right angles.
I like how you did the string line method keeping it out of the way of your work area. Great job my friend 🙏
Glad you liked it, thanks so much for the support Ralph! 👏
I'm amazed your 'followers' aren't higher! All your guys jobs are great! I know how to build all of your projects also being a carpenter but still love watching them all 👍
Metric measurements. If he used imperial he would have Canada, brits, and Americans watching.

H5 posts won't rot, it's treated for submersion in water/flooded areas.
Respect - I am enamored by his talent. He makes it look so easy - just wish it was really that easy!

Looks awesome!! You had lost me at "Profiles with strangling", then lost me with that chainsaw action. I'm not a professiona You did a great job.
Excellent video , even a girl can do this i will try it next year. thanks mate
So did you build one?
I need that spray paint that instantly turns grass into a solid tape measure hook
Stan, you are definitely the man !!!!!
so easy bro, should be able to knock this out fast
Great job!
Well explained, a howdy from Texas.

Great effort, really enjoy the video how to assemble and the use of tools Well done Sam
Great video, il sit back and watch the guy next week from the sofa 👍🤪

Hi! Is it alright to allow wood to be in contact with concrete? Isn't it necessary to isolate it somehow to prevent moist from going into wood? Thanks!
It’s fine if it’s heavily treated (H4 or H5) otherwise it will need some membrane between the two
Thanks god job
great video
Lucky those nails in the lawn were in exactly the right place
need some paint thinner to wash paint off tape measure. Try the 3-4-5 method for making square lines.
I always thought it was standard practice to put few inches of gravel before the concrete, for drainage. Either that or bolt them to metal brackets set in the concrete. Won't these posts rot over time (quicker I mean).

@@oo0Spyder0oo I don't know how I missed that. lol. must've have been skipping through the video
@@baddogentertainment6960 no worries. I just built one like this and used H4, but I kept the concrete above the water line to keep a run off.
Thank you ☺️
Great detailed video.Thank You.
Great job
Thanks for watching 👏 ^Cam
Excellent
I think this would be good for a deer hunting type thing to hang and clean a kill
Nice work and well done
Thank English Queen, you measure everything in meters
This chippy makes the job look so easy, ha.
Hi,that pergola is awesome,I'm gonna build me the same one,and what is the distance of the string lines

As a non-native speaker: the NZ accent is awesome :) So much better than the traditional English.
That looked easy 👍
Awesome!!! Thanks for the lesson!
the spray can also shots out a nail or something similar wow where can you get these marvelous product
Seems rather simple I love it, I'd love to make one of these :D
