I hear that That's what I'm doing but I'm doing it for a reason I have 10 acres of good sized hemlocks that none of the loggers want and I need to build a shed for my compact tractor C'Mon🤠
For the people talking about the foundation. A couple things…. Those look like telephone poles. If they are then they’re already treated. Additionally, if not treated/burned/soaked, then using the right wood can mitigate any problem a y’all think he might have. There are untreated black locust posts still holding fence lines up across America that are 60+ years old. Yall clearly aren’t from an area with 100 year old barns that are still standing long before modern wood treatment. This video was awesome great videography, minimal talking, and good music. Thank you for taking the time to share.
@@Phredbo hemlock is a softwood, I would say yes it would need some sort of treatment. Black Locust is probably the only wood I’d bury/ ground contact. It’s in a realm of its own when it comes to rot resistance. White oak is also good but still doesn’t hold a candle to BL
@@FoothillsFirewood thanks for the quick reply I will probably just treat the 2 feet that goes in the ground The shed don't have to last forever Just as long as I am alive(65 now😏)
You the only one. 100% telephone poles and they are treated but seems like everyone watching lives in an apartment downtown and has never seen a telephone pole.
I have to tell you that if it weren’t for your little boy saying thumbs up 👍🏼 I would totally forget. And who can say no to him. He’s a great little helper. God bless him.
Watching you work with your child brings back memories of working with one of my daughters in the garden. She is now married with 4 kids and has the most amazing garden that she lovingly cares for, walking round with the camera showing me any new plants. Beautiful flower beds, shrubs, lawn area. Everybody enjoys it. The kids play football, the dog runs around and it is always . looking good.
Nice very nice, making memories for a life time, with your Dad & Son very enjoyable!!!!!! I am 64 and remember building working with my Father. Thank you!!!!
There's nothing like that feeling of getting all the equipment under cover. It will last years longer out of the Sun and rain. Great job. Working on doing the same here. Never enough shelter. 👍😎👌
When you are putting posts in the ground, if you burn the ends going in the ground it will help to keep bugs from them. That should help to prevent them from rotting.
@@scottallen5269 when I was a kid, we had an old style wood post fence, and when my gramps would replace the post he would first coat the part of the timber that would go into the ground with this thick tar, it wasn’t regular roofing tar, this stuff was hard to put on with a brush, but them post are still in the ground to this day, some 35 years later and still strong, although the tops of the post are rotting away.
@@jeffreykreft5442 I like that old school way of doing things. Anytime I’m around an older craftsman, I try to pay attention and listen. They are harder to find lately... or maybe we are the ones trying to follow and teach?
@@scottallen5269 it really is left to us to pass down information learned from the old timers, sad to see them go. My gramps had allot of knowhow that he learned from his parents and grandparents.
@@jeffreykreft5442 my great grandfather was something I couldn’t get enough of his knowledge, while being so patient with me. He stayed busy and used his hands till he was 97... passed a year later. And you are right... It is up to us. Problem is... Seems like the “old ways” are becoming irrelevant to this younger generation. Question... are you creating anything now?
Now I just need a driver, I'm ready with everything else, just need a few rechargeable tools to make easier. What a nice and inspiring video. Thank You,
Anytime you encapsulate wood in concrete or tar you take a chance at creating something like a wick. If water can get in, it will eventually rot. Better to treat the wood or use treated wood. Gravel at the bottom of the hole and well drained soil is the key. Excellent job here.
Did that little boy just pop out of the hole? And all these years I was told they were found under cabbage leaves! Post and beam construction. Love it. Take care and stay safe. From: Petawawa, Ontario.
Wow absolutely amazing never 2 boards nailed together like that,I’ve been a carpenter for 40+ years and you could fill several encyclopedias with the things I don’t know But this video is just an example of the lengths people will go to just to get attention
I can give you some advice, it might come in handy, if when you put a log in a hole, you need to put stones between the log and the wall and crush them well and hit them with something heavy on the ground and not with a shovel, then the post stands very firmly, like on concrete, in the village where I grew up, not there was cement and so we installed the pillars; they stood very firmly, perhaps my advice will help you.
Crazy, we do the same here where I live for decades. We fence kilometers around our farm for the cattle and horses and we dig the hole, pole goes in and stones around and with a big a little heavy stick we hit the stones and the pole will will be very hard. We use eucaliptus tress because there is just so much of it.
MAN ALL I CAN SAY THIS VIDEOR WAS 10000% AMAZING THOES TOOLS HOW IT CUT THAT WOOD THE GREAT HELP OF YOUR DAD AND YOUR SUN ITS THE BEST TEAM WORK I EVER SAW THANKS
Well I’ve watched a lot of tube channels with folks putting on tin roofs and I think you are the first to put the screws in the raised ribb as I was taught to do by the old folks. Which was a while back as I am in my 70’s myself. Like your channel, keep up the good work.
@@darylkalbach4600 that isn’t precisely true. For a few years they code changed back and forth. Some years it would say to put them in the flats. Some years on the ribs. The thought behind it was that snow would sit on the flats more than on the ribs. So really, it didn’t make a difference. I personally put mine in the ribs. It gives a cleaner look to the metal roofing.
Question, Why did you mill your ceiling rafters at 2" and then have to double them to get your needed 4" when you could have milled them at 4" to begin with and saved a lot of time, energy, nails, and glue when scarfing the boards together ?
You and your dad are a pleasure to watch working together. The build was excellent. I can't even imagine the cost of that wood at a lumber place. Have you lost weight over the last year? I have been meaning to ask. Your son is adorable. I remember him in his first videos. He is so handsome. You and your wife have done an excellent job raising him. He is so happy and wants to be like you. I wonder if you were like him when you were a toddler with your dad? Blessings and Prayers being sent your way for continued health and happiness. Thank you for sharing your gifts of talent and your beautiful family. My own sons are in their 50's now but I remember the days when I watch your little one playing. Thank you for the memories revisited.
I just got around to viewing your shed build. Great, glad to see you used 2, 1/2s glued together and slanted screws, stronger than 2” thick but ringshank nails are better and cheaper than screws. Screws bread, nails bend and don’t brake
May I suggest a Minor change in your notch try using Humboldt wedge as the tree hits the ground softer and less stress split's. Just something that I use for the Saw log trees vs pulp wood. I hope you give it a try and see what you think. As always good luck and God Bless.
Love love love your videos!!God bless you and your family 🙏👍❤️ I think the 2X4 screwed to (or however it was attached) the large beam to stand it up was brilliant 👏 👍✨️
Ive used acid to remove old rusty spots on sheet metal. Use proper PPE outdoors. Rise off after a few minutes, dry well then use a metal primer and paint.
You guys did a hell of a job working together they just have a pretty good garage pretty quick probably was the quick as a film boys but keep up the good work and I’ll be watching you God bless
With all that heavy duty wood, I honestly thought it was going to be a shed with stairs to a second level up top with covered patio to sit and look out at your land.
Grew up in a city and still live in a city. Worked construction during my teenage and college years though. Always wish I could just get up and build things like this in my yard, but I'd need about 500 permits and months and months of inspectors just to build a simple shed. Wish I could live out in the middle of nowhere.
You can. And you should. You deserve it 👏. First step Square those shoulders and start looking for land in other states. Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri and Tennessee. Lots of woods, stay away from steep hillsides if you can and live your life like you want to live it. GET OUT OF LARGE CITIES NO MATTER WHAT STATE YOU'RE IN!
I am looking too build something similar so I have watched several vids on it. And every time they/you have great soil to dig in. I on the other hand live in southern Mass on the border of CT. Nothing but rocks. Every shovel is stopped by a rock the size of a softball up to a small car! HaHa
thank you so much for this video, i really appreciate the knowledge - im going to attempt somthing like this myself soon - have a great day guys - hope you are enjoying your new shed!!
I've started watching your videos the last 5 months and they're really relaxing and enjoyable for me. The only thing that would make me happier is seeing you use Torx screws instead of Phillips.... Great build though, might have to do something similar at my father in law's place.
You and your dad did an amazing job on that shed! I was still amazed at how much it took to get it done! Thanks for resharing this. God bless! 🎚🙏🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
Nothing like watching a homestead shed build at 3:40 in the morning to pass the time away.😊
I’m watching it at 2:09 am 😜
I hear that That's what I'm doing but I'm doing it for a reason I have 10 acres of good sized hemlocks that none of the loggers want and I need to build a shed for my compact tractor C'Mon🤠
Love your little helper and your Dad helping. Great job on the build. God bless you all.

What about hemlock Do you have to treat them?

I'd be super proud of that shed. Dad's and son's working together is a beautiful thing.
So awesome seeing a dad and his boy working hard. I love it.
Why do I get the feeling I've seen this before.? I have, loved seeing you and your Dad working together. Your a very lucky man.
Hey, Mac! Yep, you've seen all this before. Thanks for watching a second time!
I watched it beginning to end.
@@johnhamilton9229 Us, too, John. It's Fall Line Ridge - it's worth watching twice 😊🥰
Its great to hear a conversation between father and son where both show love and respect.
Great job from your little helper!
Nice very nice, making memories for a life time, with your Dad & Son very enjoyable!!!!!! I am 64 and remember building working with my Father. Thank you!!!!
MAN I LOVE THE WAY YOU'LL DOES WORK
Next or third time I've watched this video mad respect well done. Great use of acceptable tolerances and got it done!
There's nothing like that feeling of getting all the equipment under cover. It will last years longer out of the Sun and rain. Great job. Working on doing the same here. Never enough shelter. 👍😎👌
Enjoyed seeing your dad again and the rafter tool he devised. The video editing was excellent. It was easy to follow the progress step by step.
Wow! Also thanks for sharing that awesome music by Cody. Right through the soul!
Nice to have all that equipment,
I love work. I can watch it all day.
When you are putting posts in the ground, if you burn the ends going in the ground it will help to keep bugs from them. That should help to prevent them from rotting.
Or coat them with roofing tar.

Love seeing the three generations together. Great job, wonderful family. M. Belinda Davis in NC.
You have one of the most wholesome channels on YT, in my opinion. Great content👍🏻
Thanks, Jordan. And thanks for watching!
I love the little clips of your son working with you. He’s such a little ball of energy and clearly really looks up to you. And he’s just a goofball
That is going to be one massive shed Or garage now And sturdy have a blessed weekend
Good job Really enjoyed watching remind me my early days as a Carpenter working with all Cain ‘s of timber; blessings to you and your family
Now I just need a driver, I'm ready with everything else, just need a few rechargeable tools to make easier. What a nice and inspiring video. Thank You,
Simple but impressive. Milling your own lumber was convenient. And you have an impressive collection of functional toys.
I love southern men they know how to do it the right way. Florida girl appreciates your hard work.
Thank you for the video, a very impressive use of the resources that you have, thoroughly enjoyed the journey, greetings from UK.
Anytime you encapsulate wood in concrete or tar you take a chance at creating something like a wick. If water can get in, it will eventually rot. Better to treat the wood or use treated wood. Gravel at the bottom of the hole and well drained soil is the key. Excellent job here.
And it will react with the alkaline nature of the cement
Lovely as a son to see Dad build stuff. Sets him up to be a good worker!!!!

Them post hole digger's ain't no joke!!! Nice job
Wow absolutely amazing never 2 boards nailed together like that,I’ve been a carpenter for 40+ years and you could fill several encyclopedias with the things I don’t know
But this video is just an example of the lengths people will go to just to get attention
Love sheds like this and the value they have, well done. The video just needed a shot of it completed, from a distance.
I can give you some advice, it might come in handy, if when you put a log in a hole, you need to put stones between the log and the wall and crush them well and hit them with something heavy on the ground and not with a shovel, then the post stands very firmly, like on concrete, in the village where I grew up, not there was cement and so we installed the pillars; they stood very firmly, perhaps my advice will help you.

Congratulations from Brasil.
Again you guys knocked it out of the park. Well done!
Very cool. I love watching these videos, where people make their own lumber. Great skills guys.
That will be there for your great grand children !
Awesome job and shed!! Soo cool to have have all the tools to get the job done. Must've save a ton wood
Cut down a tree, mill it up and build a shed. You and your Daddy are something else together I Loved the video. Thank you
MAN ALL I CAN SAY THIS VIDEOR WAS 10000% AMAZING THOES TOOLS HOW IT CUT THAT WOOD THE GREAT HELP OF YOUR DAD AND YOUR SUN ITS THE BEST TEAM WORK I EVER SAW THANKS
@ Wes & crew... This was a great teamwork exposition. I particularly liked the team uniform shown at about 6:50+.
Wow that's just what I needed to see for my next project thanks guy's
what a great job in building the shed you and your dad work really good together chip off the old block !!!
Great job on the build. So satisfying to watch from felling the trees to processing on the sawmill and the actual build 👍
Can you explain what do you mean by felling the tree, quite don’t know what you’re talking about
@@sionemataele7900 you don't know what "FELLING" means, do you? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

On the ridge is wrong put on flat area on the ribs u can stretch the sheets. Read the instructions to install.

Another nice build - wtg - A three generation build!!!!!
Very nice shed! We enjoy your videos!
Thanks for watching!
that was great, and a lot of fun watching
Good build I would had used steel trap on one end of the build due to wind forces. We done and good to see have a go

Bet all the fresh cut wood smelt so good 😭🙌🏻 Great compilation.

Nice very nice
I like building sheds and other structures but this is another level
Very satisfying watching this video
Great job 👏 👍 👌
Glad you see that you have some help.

Very nice educational, I enjoyed watching this
solid build. ain't going no where nice work
Nice tractor, nice sawmill, nice chain saw, time to invest into a post hole digger. Very nice project.
those are some nice planks your coming up with
