Kyle, would you please do a video on how you use/operate your laser level and the other tool you use to help determine high points/grade? That'd be awesome! Thanks!
Hawaiian boy here🙋🏾♂️I wish I had dis bradah to help and teach me to start my small construction business. He by far would make a great business instructor and mentor. U guys fuck!🤙🏽
Love the videos! Was re-watching a video from about a year ago; You mentioned making a tool pack of all your favorite tools and hand delivering. "Part 3 80' Truss Install With 2 Guys" 14 minutes and 30 seconds in. Did that ever happen? :)
Are corner brackets consider part of the end walls? I think I saw in one video that the string line was running on the inside ear of the corner bracket that's what brought up the question. Also do you frame anything different if you are using house-wrap vs sheathing? All the best thank you for all the vids!
In what state are you setting piers for post frame buildings? Here in Montana and Wyoming, we've never seen anyone set piers on any post frame buildings. Post go directly into the ground below the frost line. We have also been switching to all SIP panels for these buildings because there are much more energy efficient with the cold winters and hot summers.
Hey, just wanted to give Kyle and Greg a big thank you for all the great content and instruction. Y'all gave me the knowledge and reference videos I needed to build my 36x64 that we made our forever home in Montana. If you watch the steps these guys use you will be able to not only build your building, but you'll understand why you need to do the things they are doing. Great work guys.
Recently came across this channel and instantly subscribed. Seeing these methods validates how our metal building install methods go hand and hand with this post frame method(s). Super efficient, boiled down and accurate procedures. Awesome and refreshing to see! Can’t wait for the trusses! 💪🏽
In a video I saw you make you said you liked the dewalt rotary laser I’ve the stabila but you liked the stablias receiver better. So my question is does the stabila receiver work with the dewalt rotary. My dewalt receiver just recently died and I was thinking about buying a stabila to replace but wasn’t sure if it would work. Any thoughts? Also love the work you and Greg do
Great work Kyle and Greg… Love watching the projects unfold. Quick question: any updates to the camera gear being used? Looking to make some content and would love to know what you’re using now and if any updates since “what’s in my camera bag”. Thanks in advance and keep up the great work
I've been watching your videos since the beginning when you were posting just the 2 minute clips. You guys have definitely come a long way. Love the videos. Keep up the great work. Got my wife to start watching your videos, now she wants a barndo. My dream finally came true. Thank you.... 😂
The camera wasn’t able to display the reading on your Stabila receiver; it looked like the screen was bad; I know it wasn’t, but it looked like ink splotches; just fyi
Can you use this method to build in areas that get ice and snow? I see some of the fences and mailboxes that are set in concrete push their way up after the freeze/thaw
Love you guys and your show, But I have to bust chops. For all your negative comments on Dewalt you sure use the Dewalt tools a lot. lmao I am a fan of their batteries and I don't even use the new stacked ones yet.
Hi Kyle, Don't know if this was asked before but why aren't you placing metal shims under your posts? I guess you can order metal shims in several thicknesses and glue them on the metal brackets and mount the main post on top of them. This way you can mark all your post the same because your foundation is leveled. Love your channle. Yoram
Pre-drilling the locations on the purlins for the nails is a huge idea. Less hard work at those heights makes for a safer operation. You made fantastic progress on the walls today.
Why not go around with the laser when you're setting those pier brackets and push them all to the same height, instead of cutting all the lumber to different heights to make up for the height difference in the brackets?
Damn watched 3 episodes in a row and after the last truss put up , can’t find the next video. This has happened before too. Sucks when ya wanna watch the whole build.
Safety First? I appreciate the fact you're wearing your seatbelt in the telehandler and wearing a hard hat. However, climbing and hanging 2x6's (I believe you someone said it was better than a big ladder) is very dangerous. Have you tried using your Megadeck to disconnect the rigging used to raise the wall and access the 2x6's. I hope you consider using the Megadeck in the future...for your families sake. The other option is a fall harness with a double self retracting lanyard. BTW...I'm a subscriber and I greatly appreciate your videos. Stay Safe!
Thanks for paying atention to the sound on the laser, apparently the beeps from a laser level is a natural predator for my dog because she hates it. I end up not watching alot of interesting videos because of it (shes in charge I just live here and pay the bills)
Hi Kyle and Greg Great UA-cam channel! I have been subscribed for several years now and I enjoy every video you post. I have an idea for content. Maybe you can share your experience as a GC and talk about the process and how to properly manage work flow, trades relationships, planning your work around other trades and maybe share some of your experiences with issues that you have worked through and how you apply it to how you work now. You know “lessons learned “. Keep sharing your great work ethic and commitment to quality. Leading by example. You and G make a great team! Thanks again. An old 58 year old carpenter from Vermont. Hank
Oh yea ‼. So cool to see you guys slinging the wood around. Kudo's to the independent video guy. Brilliant there Kyle. Good move ‼ Thank you so much for sharing all of this. from New Hampshire. ~~~ ✨🌸💦🌸✨
Is there any reason you dont just go ahead and partially drive your 60d nails as well after predilling the holes and then take them up to be set? Just seems like one more step you could save from doing up top.
Anyone know the distance between posts? I know they're 8' but need to know maximum width I can make a litezone piece of glass in that r/o. Thanks if anyone knows
Hey Kyle. I was trying to find details on sidewall overhead door openings. Do you use the structural header as a truss carrier or build posts up from the header keeping true spacing??
You do know they make double headed nails for ease of temp assembly & then easy removal , kinda makes it easier on the carpenter's arm & not have to be so precise in driving them home for a snug fit & still have a head protruding for easy removal ...Just trying to save you a little arm energy & make them easier to remove , which should also save you time , both assembling & removing them ...👍👋
Laminated columns are straighter, stronger, and better pressure treatment. With that being said, the price isn't worth it if you use an above grade design. In my area, they're 3 to 4 times the cost of a 6x6.
Petition to get Greg a mic?
GET GREG A MIC!! GET GREG A MIC!!!
I second that motion
Definitely!!
Greg can't even get a nail gun.... how do you guys expect him to get a mic ;)
%100
as always: amazed what two guys manage (with the right equipment, but still)
All the lines on wall amd truss day are so cool! Favorite parts of the build.
I love your videos. When you make the 100th building I’ll still be watching with anticipation.
Great job well done guys! Thanks for the video! 😁👍

Diretamente do Brazil, deixo o like , de alguém que trabalha em construção ok.
2 guys! You get a lot of work done. Who films you?
No disrespect to the sally hammer swingers 😂😂

would you still make the wall height 16 feet from zero grade if you were framing a second floor inside?
In what state are you setting piers for post frame buildings?
Here in Montana and Wyoming, we've never seen anyone set piers on any post frame buildings. Post go directly into the ground below the frost line.
We have also been switching to all SIP panels for these buildings because there are much more energy efficient with the cold winters and hot summers.
If you are right handed, why do you use a left hand tape measure?
whats your number on drilling the 1/2 inch lag bolts perfectly? 5200?
At least
What kind of hard hat do you use?
Wonder how much house was or building you build cost
Hey guys. Have you tried setting the posts with your skidloader and truss boom? Does it work?
What hammer is that?
Martinez 🔨
Who works the camera these days
That level is ridiculous.
::mumbles:: "not sponsored" 🤣🤦💯
how about a little glue on the end truss block?
Why

Whoever sends the free tools and pays for the spot is getting the kind words
Happy July 4 to you guys and your family and the kept the channel running good luck with the career and kept up do the good work for the community

Let’s go!! Barndos are awesome
The camera wasn’t able to display the reading on your Stabila receiver; it looked like the screen was bad; I know it wasn’t, but it looked like ink splotches; just fyi
The "Stabila...not sponsored" comment seemed to have slight tone behind it. Hey @STABILAoffical....get this man a sponsorship! Hahaha
Can you use this method to build in areas that get ice and snow? I see some of the fences and mailboxes that are set in concrete push their way up after the freeze/thaw
My guess is yes if the concrete goes below frost line.
Love you guys and your show, But I have to bust chops. For all your negative comments on Dewalt you sure use the Dewalt tools a lot. lmao I am a fan of their batteries and I don't even use the new stacked ones yet.

I've always wanted to see you build one of these from the trusses DOWN.
Pre-drilling the locations on the purlins for the nails is a huge idea. Less hard work at those heights makes for a safer operation. You made fantastic progress on the walls today.
Молодец !!! 👍👍👍 Привет из России 😀
Always love to watch y’all build a building!! Never gets old!!
If a concrete pad was going in later, would the process be different?
Who are these guys? Hard hats, seat belt running the telehandler 😂 What happened to safety third? 😂
Exactly!! We look good, we are making money… so now we are being safe
Why not go around with the laser when you're setting those pier brackets and push them all to the same height, instead of cutting all the lumber to different heights to make up for the height difference in the brackets?
its likely they would still settle in the wet concrete
I wish you were in north AL to build a horse facility .
I remember when Kyle made his own nails he used! The good ole days!! Lol
Damn watched 3 episodes in a row and after the last truss put up , can’t find the next video. This has happened before too. Sucks when ya wanna watch the whole build.
did you try the playlist

Hey Kyle, whenever you mention, "I made another video about that" could you link to it in the description? Thx.
At 24:26 we can see the imprint of the new hammer on the wood!
Hello sir,
I have a question:
Why you use concrete for column foundation? Why not RC?
Could you tell me?
RC?
I am amazed as to how the 2 of you can build so much in a day!! Prep is the key!! Stay safe!! Always enjoy your video's!!
Sleave around your wood
Fun fact, Wilt Chamberlain had a story pole

Now confirmed . Greg does use hair spray😂

I built 40 post and beam building from 1982 thru 1990. Your way seems complicated. I am 86 years old now. Hope you keep working.
Anyone know the distance between posts? I know they're 8' but need to know maximum width I can make a litezone piece of glass in that r/o. Thanks if anyone knows
Why don't you build the sheds out of steel?
Hey Kyle. I was trying to find details on sidewall overhead door openings. Do you use the structural header as a truss carrier or build posts up from the header keeping true spacing??
This is a good exercise in logic.. Think smarter, don't work harder!!!
Thanks for another great post. George from Indiana

I am trusting that trus day is your favourite day.
I thought Greg was good at donuts, not setting up wall layout. LOL
let's goooo!
Is that Sam Yoder and Son truss
Great jobs guys! Love your videos, hats down!!! Greetings from Serbia! I would like to work with you.
Have you ever build a post frame house like this where you had a basement underneath?
Привет из России! Хорошая работа!
👍
Not really relevant to the video but what do you do when you don't have a rib on the last sheet on a wall to screw corner flashing to
I know a guy, truss me
Try breaking one ( swirly ) nail off a clip and tap it into a piece of wood and watch it spin in a circle as you tap it in !
Lesh goo
Who’s the camera man
Hey whats the widest you can buy trusses
I think you're trying to knock off Greg🤣🤣.
Which stabila last and receiver are you using on this job?
Haters will say its fake
Can you used this framing method to build a house too?
Yes, and he has videos of that on his channel.
I miss the days of building pole barns as my job. But my question is why use 3 2x6 instead of 1 6x6? Price? We always used 6x6 for our columns
Laminated columns are straighter, stronger, and better pressure treatment. With that being said, the price isn't worth it if you use an above grade design. In my area, they're 3 to 4 times the cost of a 6x6.
You've said this is a tall wall several times, but how tall is it?
Mad props finally nothing is perfect
Those Simpson Strong tie post bases, would they work instead of the bases you all use? Just curious.
Absolutely not.
Great job
Nice truck i comments as I go lol
Are you brothers?
Love you guys!
Happy Birthday Greg
👍
Glad to see the hard hats… they’re nice too…
Nice work looks great😊
Hello"""Hola"""good job"""buen trabajo""" thank you, see
Have you ever built a truss section on the ground and then flown it in as an assembly?
Yes
How come you don’t wear work boots?
Who said that they aren't work shoes
They are safety toe keen utility
With the aluminum toe caps? Those are nice, I love mine.
잠 안올때. 보면 잠 😴 잘와요
Ironic that a hammer is required to repair to your hammer. LOL
Don’t “have” to just easy
Awesome job Kyle! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
I’d love to buy these plans for my shop build
