    It's great! My shed has been completed and it turned out nice looking and sturdy and it is way better than the sheds that many of my neighbors had put up. Of course, I'm pleased with the outcome and this Ryan's ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxGZedDTcDfgD7fG_uU4esfx_EgxzlY2_1 Plans was extremely useful to me as a guide.

      He "paid" himself almost £40/hour. That's a ton of money he saved that he could put to other use, instead of paying someone else to do it. DIY, if you have the will to learn, improve, do is a way to make your life more wealthy and I don't necessarily mean rich in money. I would be flat broke if I had to pay someone else to fix my vehicle, or do all the fixing and building I have to do at home. Keeps the mind sharp and body fit. His work is quality and a solid investment. 👍👍👍

      Your skills are absolutely fantastic! You should win an award 😊 Are you going to hook up the plumbing pipe to a water collection tank? I know you have the spring water in the greenhouse however you mentioned that at a certain time in the year the water table dries up. Just an excellent piece of work Central Victoria Australia 🇦🇺

    A saying I just heard on another channel, and I have taken to saying it myself. The way you're doing it is still better than the way others are not doing it! I.e. you're out there working and building and learning, most commenters are just sitting on their arse, doing nothing at all! Keep up the good work Kris, green house looks amazing

    Hey Kris,
    I felt compelled to reach out to you in response to some of the negative comments that you mentioned had been left in some of your recent videos. I have been a subscriber to your channel now nearing on four years. I have watched all of your videos and continue to watch every video you post. I continue to be inspired by your development as a craftsman and am always blown away by the scope of the projects that you continue to design, build and execute with precision as one man and one man alone. You have accomplished a number of significant achievements which not only inspire creativity, ingenuity and sustainability in others but also provide a free source of education to a huge following of supporters that both share your vision and support the message of sustainability that underpins the primary message of your channel.
    I believe I can speak for the overwhelming majority of your subscribers in saying that any negativity or criticism you find in your comments is coming from the minority of your viewers. This minority of people are obviously frustrated by their own reluctance to take on similar projects and as a result they choose to criticise rather than to provide constructive feedback or contribute positively to the community like many of your other followers do.
    Keep up the fantastic work, continue to inspire other likeminded people as you have done and the community will come to you as you continue educate and grow your audience over the coming years.
    All the best.

    Love it, love it, love it. Looks strong and sturdy and neat and clean. Most storms take out green houses first because they are too light. But your ain't going no where. Know what would look so nice next to it? A wishing well! If no water from it, would look nice to see flowers flowing out of it. Make it out of mud cob. Maybe. You both have worked so hard, you deserve it. Thanks for sharing.

    Turned out great! Looking forward to seeing it in the future when all the timber has mellowed. I definitely ended up putting thermastatically controlled ventilation in mine just because it was such a hassle to monitor the wildly fluctuating temperatures all the time, since the cats love it in the winter I just installed two cat doors (low) and three dryer vents up( high) for intake.Also I know its not in the K.H. style but I got a used commercial swinging glass door that I incorporated.

    Nice job on the ventilation, reminds me of some commercial nercery systems, love building the way you. Some folks research things on youtube and equate their inelegance to their ability to look things up on the internet, this is a common misconception of inexperienced folks, nice to see someone like you work things out with natural talent and what you have earned in knowledge and through doing. There world is full of bad information and people who might be able to tell you how to do something but could often never actually build something with a reasonable outcome.
    There are others that have incredibly low self esteem, and go about trolling channels like yours trying with futility to demonstrate how smart they are fore looking something up on the net
    . Or just continue to start arguments and fights, and of course there is an abundance of those that truly should never open their mouth. You channel is wonderful, thank you so much.

    Kris, one sign of a true craftsman is the ability to incorporate "mistakes" into the final design in such a way that it looks as though it was planned that way from the beginning. Always a challenge when I'm making it up as I go along but always results in very creative and unique projects. Keep up the great work and you'll end up with a very comfortable and enjoyable self sustaining estate.

  • @maxejnar9934
    @maxejnar9934 3 роки тому

    looks marvelous!! And it will work beautifully. About those flaps the automated opening windows for greenhouses they are an engineering pearl. When i moved in here 12 years ago there was an old overgrown greenhouse in the backyard. Last year the foundation finally went bad. So we took out the glass moved the aluminum frame to the front of the house and made a proper concrete foundation put up the frame bought a few new pieces of glass and the parts to put them in and it is basically as new. The automated windows both of them just works and think i gave them a bit of oil maybe twice in 12 years and they where old already back then. That to me is a amazing piece of engineering. The windows, The frame, The standardized glass parts, the wonderful simple way to change glass the pure fact that i can get new spare parts for something that old.
