This guide is a good resource of videos, pictures and drawing. It does not have plans, so if that's what you're looking for don't bother with this book. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxLum--iPp9YKZ09j1BMdHaBMLkrGfIbcm What this book does have is a lot of great information on the building of sheds, design ideas, building options, etc. The author goes through the steps to build a foundation, framing, roof, even ideas on internal storage and external finishes. The text is easy to follow and understand. There are many sidebars that give tips and advice which most laymen probably wouldn't have considered. The photographs are great quality too. This is a great book and I'd recommend it highly for anyone needing or interested in building a shed.
As a retired machinist I absolutely enjoy you and your crews eye for detail and expertise. In today’s world not many go 120% to produce a quality job. I truly enjoy your craftsmanship and quality of work ethic .
Your timing is impeccable. You have motivated me to try and build my own post frame home. We just finished our foundation pour so we will be building right along with you and using all your methods. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into your channel.
I am fully impressed! It’s just a complete ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 plan with the best resources and step by step instructions . These shed plans are so satisfying as if the sheds build themselves on their own. Worthy work Ryan!
I’m glad you showed that bullseye bubble level on your laser system elevation pole. I’ve seen you and other UA-cam makers checking elevation without rocking the pole. Back in the ‘60s I surveyed in a college co-op job with optical surveying equipment. When we ran elevations, we had to rock the stick slowly so the transit man could pick out the lowest reading (which corresponded to a true ‘plumb’ reading). And, yes we learned the hard way that the lowest reading was the true elevation. Our crew leader was an experienced professional surveyor and usually ran the transit. One day, he let one of the kids read and record (by hand in the survey book) the elevations on a hydraulic fill survey we were running. After about an hour he walked back to the transit, looked in the book, and saw the kid was recording the highest, not the lowest numbers. We skipped lunch that day to repeat all the readings we had done that morning.
That is called a “wave”. As in give me a little wave. In those windy conditions it is extremely difficult to hole a level rod plumb, even with a rod leveler bubble. The wave takes out the possible error. “Retired surveyor Md. S.H.A
If you spend a little extra time up front ensuring your foundation and frame are square, it really speeds up the rest of the construction process. Your drywall guy and interior trim people will love you for it.
I am fascinated with building something amazing and it’s awesome you guys can look back and say I was apart of this project. I am 20 years of age and I’ve been a machinist for 3 years and you will always learn something new in the machining trade but I don’t have excitement that I do for beautiful homes, garages and exc because they are so beautiful. Unfortunately I have been struggling with mental health and I’m at my lowest. I got let go from my job and it has been the first time I have ever been let go or fired. I isolate myself now and coming across you’re guys videos has made some time go by
Please don't be blue, L3gend H3ro (cool "handle" BTW!); God works in mysterious ways and perhaps He pointed you to this channel to learn a NEW SKILL, one that you have a PASSION for. I don't know why you lost your job, I am "assuming" it might be because you are BRAVE ENOUGH to NOT be FORCED to "take the jab." If that IS the case, DESPITE my belief OR unbelief in vaccines, I AM PROUD OF YOU FOR STANDING BY YOUR CONVICTIONS regardless of the hardship(s) you may be feeling right now. On the "bright side" there are SO MANY jobs that you can do to keep your head above water while you LEARN (possibly) this AMAZING craft and have a career that will BRING YOU HAPPINESS. I pray God keeps you safely tucked within His loving arms and keep your chin up, honey, everything is going to be OK!! I'm old enough to be your Grandma so I hope I didn't offend you:-) Take care of yourself!
I appreciate your videos. My wife and I just built our first barn (40X52), two story. I watched a few videos using some of your techniques. Man, that was some hard work. Nobody shows up when the work begins. I mainly used your metal work techniques. It took five months with a full time job. I wish I could share the pictures. Thanks again!!!
I won't be building my barndo until I retire in about 10 years, but I'm definitely bookmarking this series for future reference. Thanks for filming a complete series like this. It's invaluable for non-professional self-builders like me.
I just dug my footer and set all my rebar on my new custom home build!! Moving into this part of the build makes everything a reality. Good luck on your new build. I bet the excitement is real 👏🏼
I'm watching this with a broken heart. I was going to start construction a year ago when I was diagnosed with lung cancer. I am now waiting to get a clean bill of health to start this project in January. I will build 60'X80' with a 24'X40' two story apt.
Best of luck with the fight. Don’t give up hope. My brother was given weeks to live and is still here after almost 5 years. Has been cancer free for two years or more. He exhausted all chemotherapy treatment until it nearly killed him and then went on an experimental immunotherapy treatment which worked really well. Eventually it too started to attack his system. He stopped treatment in January and is still clear of all tumors.
I've stifled many colds by telling myself to heal, sometimes on every breath. Has anyone successfully done it to beat cancer? It would not hurt to do it. If nothing else, at least you would have found something out.
I won’t lie, I can usually figure out stuff pretty easy but I never quite understood what exactly the laser was doing until this video. I’m so excited to watch this entire series.
I would love a video dedicated to the laser and grade. From start to finish how to set up the grade stick how to read it etc.. grade is something that has always bottled up my mind
I think the problem with his explanation here was he had originally stated they mark the +/- on the bracket, but in reality I think he records +/- from a ZERO bracket and THEN determines which one is the lowest, and that lowest bracket now becomes his new ZERO. He can then go around to each bracket and find out how much higher they are (i.e., 1/16", 5/16", etc) from that Zero. THAT dimension is what he uses to subtract from his original X dimension of the column. So if the column is 18' tall, but he needs it to be a nominal 17', the ZERO column would be cut by 1', but the column that has -3/16" would be cut by 1'-3/16" because the bracket sits up higher by 3/16", and to ensure those locations he is measuring from all line up, he needs to take away an extra 3/16" from the length of the column....ugh, that was confusing...and I probably totally screwed it up....LOL... Agree, I would love more info on the grade info, he's done it before, and maybe I'll review it again. The other area I was confused with was the original measuring of the walls...where did that 96'-8" come from, what about the 1-1/2" IN from the edge, and then the other 2" from the edge...was that arbitrary? I understood the checking for square and then modifying an end point (in or out to ensure the layout was square), but the numbers weren't explained at the beginning and were kind of "well it's intuitive here"...LOL
Even though it was an error, the 2" off helped me and many see a solution. Awesome series. Second time going through this and taking detailed notes. I'm more confident than ever doing this myself. The sheer cost savings is insane. The only things I may not do myself is the roof and any drywall. I hate drywall.
Thanks for taking the time and sharing what you do!…I have been following you for some time now. You have inspired my wife and I to tackle building our own barndominium here in southern Ohio…attempting to build out of pocket to remain debt free.
We are in the same boat (we have land so we are a bit ahead I guess). I can't find a better way to build a home than this. ICF, timber framing... I always end up back at the post frame home.
New follower. Attention to detail and showing what your doing is helping me learn what my foundation builder is doing and why. Going to binge watch your vids. Adding them to my build file. Out here in Seattle.
Hey I love ur channel and learning a ton from u. I’m in the process of finishing a project my father-in-law started 65 yrs ago. Unfortunately he die during this project of a heart attach, it’s my goal to pay homage to him and finish his dream. He was an amazing man’s man. He carried stone from the quarry above the property hand cut every bluestone for the building. The size is 115 x 30’ with some zig zags 9 ft walls but it didn’t have rafter holding anything and stud the test of 65 harsh NY winters. We have hit the stage where I have so many questions would it be possible to speak w u. Thanks keep up the great work Scott Pall
Another great video. I'm looking forward to seeing you complete another quality workmanship build. I'm always amazed on how much 2 guys can do with the right tools for the job and with such attention to details.
Thumbs up found another video of the devildog of the Barndo Building World! I swear you had to be in the USMC! I love how you keep your cool but sometimes maybe throw a tape at one of your guys and beat them with a level! Once again! Great video! Come to Bama and make a video down south! It would be a trip! I’ve lived all over the country so I talk normal. But I pretty sure I would have to be your interpreter down here!!! I’m gonna be watching these videos during each step building mine just to make sure I’m doing it right. It’s a whole new industry and trust me I needed it bc I have mastered all trades and burned out until I saw these videos. Thanks for your positive vibe brother! Jesus is the King!
Very well done on this video Kyle. I hope you continue with this type of video throughout the build. This video is very informative and explained very well. I think this will help a ton of people no matter your experience or skill level as a contractor/builder or any DIY'er who may want to build a post frame. I have a feeling this build series will be a staple to your channel and a ton of people will refer to this build series when looking for information on a post frame.
Love all the measurements at front…. never understand al the inch and the 5/8… you mention but is sounds always very intresting. Shoutout from the Netherlands.
Wow. I’m a stay at home day with very little to no knowledge of what happens in your world. However mu wife and I want to build a house on 52 acres and this build is going to be invaluable for me! (Even if you don’t build it Kyle!!!)
You are such a smart, productive builder. One of the things that really impresses me is that you didn’t grow up in the trades and came to it later on. Is this correct? I really enjoy your vids, your natural ability in laying things out and seeing the big picture is truly impressive!!
This is gonna be great. On the edge of my seat with this build. I'm on the bandwagon with a video on the laser level and grade video. I understand cutting the posts/columns different lengths so the the truss line is straight but I need a better understanding of the ins and outs on deciding where zero grade should be . Thank you for your videos.
I am trying to figure out what he does to the posts after he gets the grade measurement. Does he just take some off of the bottom so that the trusses will all sit at the same height? At one point (22:15) it looks like he is adding spacers to get them all at the same point.
Been watching on FireStick and saw that a percentage of people that watch you do so in this way and are not counted unless they subscribe, so I finally came to the computer and did so. Moved into a new home four years ago and the trades here do not know their trade as you do. Hense, I have had tiles replaced four time, corners cracking, crown molding splitting, dipples on all door finishing, cabinets finich nail dimple different color and countlessl other acomebacks for the trades.
You should do a video that just takes your audience through the layout using your layout station equipment. You're right, most do not own a layout station, but some can afford to purchase one and want to know how to use it. The way you have explained post framing in all of your videos, I can see an advantage of your channel growing with this new video.
I have really loved you content and as a semi retired carpenter, i love learning form all kinds of fokes. Your one of the best. Now I'm trying to figure out if I could build a barndominium with pasive house regulations
Well, Kyle... you've got me educated enough to start my own barndominium - I believe. If only I had the muscles you guys have. lol By the way, very nice tip on using hairspray to cover those chalk lines. That's the first time I've heard that. This build is the one I have been waiting for. Stay safe out there.
I've been watching your show for quite a while now and even used your Post frame system for a little car port that I built. Now I am starting a 24' X 28' but one thing I haven't been able to figure out is the corner and how you bring your inside girts together. If you could take a moment and show how you make the attachment at the corner it would be greatly appreciated.
This is exactly what I've been waiting for. Would it be possible to see an idea of the plans? Kind of like an "end goal in sight" type of thing so we can have a better idea of what you're trying to achieve with each step? I hope that makes sense.
Thank you for taking the time to put out this content. I know it can not be easy to do. Especially when nearly on all your builds you cover the same things. But I like it. Maybe a video on how to cost effectively build a shop on a tight budget for us that can not afford to hire it out. But want to do it ourselves...
Finding a decent builder to build a regular stick frame home these days is hard enough, finding an experienced barndo builder in my area seems like a needle in a haystack
Question/Comment: Insect and rodent protection details would be awesome to see! Especially with mitigation for them getting into insulation. I've seen some of this in a past video. But showing details at the top of the wall would be great too.
Yes, please do a detailed elevation/laser video. Would be handy if you could also sketch/draw it out to better illustrate. Thanks and we enjoy your videos!!
I know that you're not a teaching contractor. I love these videos. Might be helpful if you could flash up a drawing of information especially here at the start. A site map of the foundation walls showing your final marks @ measurements for those visual learners it would be the cats meow. A site map of the heights of each column location etc etc .... However, your videos are awesome ... do feel free to keep doing the great job you're all ready doing :)
Perma-column is a little more than 1 hour from me. I called them to get more information on their products when I was ready for a 36x48 building. They even recommended a builder that I ultimately went with.
Again, your attention to detail is amazing, I only wish I had half of the building knowledge you have! Keep up the perfect work and see you on the next one. Still trying to talk Paul Marshall into build my large storage building over here in DM?
Would love to see more detail on fasteners for your certain applications. Sheathing (when applied), facia trim, soffit, house wrap, window and door framing, etc.. Maybe a future tools day?
Great video, I'm nota builder or framer always wanted to be. Fascinated with the grade stick and shooting elevations just don't understand it completely. Think this will be an awesome series.
I heard somewhere if you put some felt, some kind of fluffy cotton, or maybe foam over the mic it reduces the wind noise significantly. Might be worth a try
I was an Aviation Inpector for a time. When a Machinist would come in Bitching about me rejecting his part i would tell them "when all else fails, make the part to the print". I have had more than one Concrete guy do me dirty on a slab over the years. "never expect what you have failed to inspect"
Nice to see you using the Bosch gear. Whilst their range is somewhat small compared to say Milwaukee or Makita, it's pretty solid gear and I'm enjoying using them atm. Looks like it's going to be another cracking build! 👍🍻🇦🇺
Been a subscriber and viewer for awhile now. I own a post-frame barn I inherited, and it has it's issues. I need to build one in upstate NY, I love your attention to detail! I doubt you'd build in NY, so in your absence I'd love you to do a "What to ask your pole-barn builder" segment (if you haven't already?) Can you do a "Top 10 things that make a good builder" series?
Hey guys thank you for what you are doing and showing the the world some questions that I have is how could you add a basement to one of these also how do you attach second and first or main floors and thirdly do you ever have options of doing bonus rooms in the trusses
I am not in the business but I am curious how much savings would there be with a post framed build vise a traditional build? Is there any time build savings also. I think Larry Haun would be proud of the work you do.
Do you prefer a finished slab or foundation wall to work off of? Or put another way when you build YOUR barndominium which will you go with? I'm about to build a shop to practice for a new home. Love the series and your builds.
Thank you for the information. It is amazing how "pole barn" building has evolved. Maybe share with us real world mistakes that your team have made and how you were able to correct them. Any preference with poured columns and poured foundations. Have you built a "pole barn" with a slab poured... Why are the pre fab pole assemblies not nominal wood size?

Thanks Kyle another great video love the 300 level college class as you teach looking forward to another fantastic build series
I could watch RR do a thousand of these 👍👏👏👏
Enjoying your mix of detailed explanations and time-lapse. Stay safe out there.
Thanks for taking the extra time to make these videos. 🙏
I'm still I'm in awe of all your knowledge
There's an unbelievable amount of information in this video, thanks for sharing all that. Well done!
those brackets needs to come with a center mark stamped by the manufacturer.
Now that’s a great idea! 😉
Harry could not be this brilliant
That was the explanation I've been looking for on how you get the grade difference on your laser grade stick!
I love your videos man. Been watching a couple of years and I still can't get my head around feet / inches.
Us Europeans are like whaaaa? 😂
I don't exactly know what you're doing, but I know you're great at it!
Kyle thank you for explaining things in detail. I plan to build my own garage post frame and I always use you for reference. 👍🏻
You should do a video that just takes your audience through the layout using your layout station equipment. You're right, most do not own a layout station, but some can afford to purchase one and want to know how to use it. The way you have explained post framing in all of your videos, I can see an advantage of your channel growing with this new video.
I have really loved you content and as a semi retired carpenter, i love learning form all kinds of fokes. Your one of the best. Now I'm trying to figure out if I could build a barndominium with pasive house regulations
the tip with the hairspray... is quite awesome..
Well, Kyle... you've got me educated enough to start my own barndominium - I believe. If only I had the muscles you guys have. lol By the way, very nice tip on using hairspray to cover those chalk lines. That's the first time I've heard that. This build is the one I have been waiting for. Stay safe out there.
I've been watching your show for quite a while now and even used your Post frame system for a little car port that I built.
Now I am starting a 24' X 28' but one thing I haven't been able to figure out is the corner and how you bring your inside girts together.
If you could take a moment and show how you make the attachment at the corner it would be greatly appreciated.
you give matt a call and have hin put this series on the build channel . i like watching you and matt together .
I've learned a ton from your vids!! Thanks for taking time to help teach people like myself.
This is exactly what I've been waiting for. Would it be possible to see an idea of the plans? Kind of like an "end goal in sight" type of thing so we can have a better idea of what you're trying to achieve with each step? I hope that makes sense.
Looks good......nice scenery as always ..hello from the caribbean...
Thank you for taking the time to put out this content. I know it can not be easy to do. Especially when nearly on all your builds you cover the same things. But I like it. Maybe a video on how to cost effectively build a shop on a tight budget for us that can not afford to hire it out. But want to do it ourselves...
Sometimes I make mistakes with meters and centimetres, so I would give you an Oscar for 10 3/8 and 96 and 15/16th alone!))
Hey Kyle, love the Channel mate, appreciate your efforts in getting these out. I’m from Melbourne in Australia. Shoutout to Greg also😊
Finding a decent builder to build a regular stick frame home these days is hard enough, finding an experienced barndo builder in my area seems like a needle in a haystack
Question/Comment: Insect and rodent protection details would be awesome to see! Especially with mitigation for them getting into insulation. I've seen some of this in a past video. But showing details at the top of the wall would be great too.
Great work as always Kyle 👍👍🏴🏴
Thank you for the clear and concise instructions.
Yooooooo thank you my G. I will follow your journey to help ours!
I saw your article in Compact Equipment. Keep up the work and videos my cyber friend!
Building a shop soon here in Idaho. Love the details.
Yes, please do a detailed elevation/laser video. Would be handy if you could also sketch/draw it out to better illustrate. Thanks and we enjoy your videos!!
Noted!
I know that you're not a teaching contractor. I love these videos. Might be helpful if you could flash up a drawing of information especially here at the start.
A site map of the foundation walls showing your final marks @ measurements for those visual learners it would be the cats meow. A site map of the heights of each column location etc etc ....
However, your videos are awesome ... do feel free to keep doing the great job you're all ready doing :)
Would definitely love to see a video on grade and the nerdy details about grade sticks. That 10th of a foot business always screws with my head.
Me encanta este blog
Saludos y viva la fraternidad mundial.
Libertad y prosperidad para todas las creaturas humanas.
23:30 Props to Greg carrying 5 girts (boards) at a time per trip...take advantage of each trip to the lumber stack man!
Shorted the man 2. Definitely had 7 in that stack!!
Larry Haun said it: "you gotta shift the wood." Some things never change.
С огромным удовольствием смотрю ваши видео и учусь. Благодарю!
Yes please. We need a video on lasers.
You can rest the bolt in the hole and then use a large brush to push the debris around. Works really fast too.
Yeah boy!! super excited to follow this build
Perma-column is a little more than 1 hour from me. I called them to get more information on their products when I was ready for a 36x48 building. They even recommended a builder that I ultimately went with.
Which builder did they refer you to? I am in SW MI.
Again, your attention to detail is amazing, I only wish I had half of the building knowledge you have! Keep up the perfect work and see you on the next one. Still trying to talk Paul Marshall into build my large storage building over here in DM?
Would love to see more detail on fasteners for your certain applications. Sheathing (when applied), facia trim, soffit, house wrap, window and door framing, etc.. Maybe a future tools day?
A dedicated video on elevation and grade stick use would be great
Excellent video and explanations Kyle!!!
Great job. I absolutely love your channel.
This will be a great build to follow. Thanks.
What is the size of your footer?
How wide is the footer?
How deep is the footer?
How much above grade?
Thanks for your videos
Happy holidays to you and your family. Tell Greg what's up from your Detroit fan Jamal smith love your videos I watch them all the time.
Great video, I'm nota builder or framer always wanted to be. Fascinated with the grade stick and shooting elevations just don't understand it completely. Think this will be an awesome series.
I heard somewhere if you put some felt, some kind of fluffy cotton, or maybe foam over the mic it reduces the wind noise significantly. Might be worth a try
Thanks Kyle. Great video again! 👍😁
I was an Aviation Inpector for a time. When a Machinist would come in Bitching about me rejecting his part i would tell them "when all else fails, make the part to the print". I have had more than one Concrete guy do me dirty on a slab over the years. "never expect what you have failed to inspect"
Nice to see you using the Bosch gear. Whilst their range is somewhat small compared to say Milwaukee or Makita, it's pretty solid gear and I'm enjoying using them atm. Looks like it's going to be another cracking build! 👍🍻🇦🇺
Been a subscriber and viewer for awhile now. I own a post-frame barn I inherited, and it has it's issues. I need to build one in upstate NY, I love your attention to detail! I doubt you'd build in NY, so in your absence I'd love you to do a "What to ask your pole-barn builder" segment (if you haven't already?)
Can you do a "Top 10 things that make a good builder" series?
Hey guys thank you for what you are doing and showing the the world some questions that I have is how could you add a basement to one of these also how do you attach second and first or main floors and thirdly do you ever have options of doing bonus rooms in the trusses
I am not in the business but I am curious how much savings would there be with a post framed build vise a traditional build? Is there any time build savings also. I think Larry Haun would be proud of the work you do.
Same here. Nobody is very eager to share that information in my search.
Do you prefer a finished slab or foundation wall to work off of? Or put another way when you build YOUR barndominium which will you go with? I'm about to build a shop to practice for a new home. Love the series and your builds.
Thank you for the information. It is amazing how "pole barn" building has evolved. Maybe share with us real world mistakes that your team have made and how you were able to correct them. Any preference with poured columns and poured foundations. Have you built a "pole barn" with a slab poured... Why are the pre fab pole assemblies not nominal wood size?
