I genuinely appreciated you showing the parts where you looked just absolutely over it and still figured out a way to manage it! I would have never thought of adding the diagonal piece of wood to hold your big one in place long enough to get it screwed in. Really inspiring!
Agree! So glad you kept it completely real because the struggle for all of us is real❤ I’m constantly riding the struggle bus but by simply keeping at it where there’s a will there’s a way!❤
The best part of this build! You being real enough to show what happens to DIY’ers and Pro’s everyday, the drops, finger pinching, head butts and generally wanting to set fire to the build but keeping level headed, great job. ❤
As a former construction worker...I gotta say I feel every single one of those times you had a side glance to the camera. "Count to three" moment for sure. Trying to build like that, on your own, is when you realize how frustrating ONLY having two hands can be. It's looking great, and guess what? You made it!
I like how you left all the frustrating bits in. Glad I'm not the only one. Well done on the build. Inspires me to get it going after some years of procrastination.
As a “one man show” I can absolutely appreciate your struggles! A couple small bar clamps would really help out. They will pay for themselves the first time you use them!
This is definetly one of the most kick-ass videos I've seen! I deeply appreciate you sharing your struggles just as much as you shared your successes. So happy I found your channel! You go girl!
I know the materials are awkward and heavy. You manage all that like a pro!!! Who ever taught you how to use all those power tools and figure out everything must be so proud of you. And if your self taught you are even more amazing ❤
As another self taught girly Homesteader to another. Thank you. A quick recc: Though your videos are not a tutorial, with your unique pioneering woman way of doing things, it would be very helpful to us aspiring to list the materials you use. Thank you again for sharing your journey.
That’s an amazing idea. I always feel a little intimidated about „how tos“ since I’m a newbie and still make a lot of mistakes and don’t want to recommend something wrong. But it may be worth a shot! Thank you 🥰
I totally agree.i homestead too and I love your videos!! I need a pole barn - well, a whole barn!! I have been very intimidated but I think I will just go for it. Right after I finish my house I am building!!
From an Ontario farmboy: GOOD GOING GIRLIE! That was a lot of hard work and stick-with-it-iveness! Good job. Now you have a shed and you have learned a lot in the process. After all that effort, please add 2x6 or 2x8 triangulation braces to protect it from getting taken down in a storm. Lag them on from 2 feet down from all posts up to the headers on a 45° angle. The braces on the posts in the middle should form a 'V' shape. You will be amazed how much more rigid it will become with just that one step. If you want to make the braces SUPER-strong, cut scrap 5/8" or 3/4" exterior plywood to the shape of each brace. Screw the pieces on over the braces with 2½" screws every 4 inches around the perimeter. You can use longer screws where they go through the brace into the post. Those are called gussets, and they greatly reinforce the braces.
She earned every inch of that barn and i like that she was smart enough to pull up that roofing from the back side, never know where a snake might be napping
You did a great job with those boards and posts! They aren't light in weight, that's for sure! You overcame many obstacles and you are an inspiration!!
I really appreciate all your doing by yourself n how hard it looks to do. Not all done without showing all the failed attempts. How things really are in the world. You pushed through n got it done great job
I love that you showed the low moments, too! Been there and very few people like to show those moments! Thanks for your genuity. Keep up the great work!!
Seeing this gave me so much hope. I am a former city girl on a solo mission with a small horse + guinea fowl farm. I needed some serious inspiration to renovate my barn and guinea coop and this was it! Thank you for sharing this.
Great job, appreciate the hardwork and not cutting out the struggles. You make it real unlike so many vids where they try to edit the video to look so simple. I been there and it’s a lot of work doing a pole barn alone. I used logs from trees on my property. ❤
Yep. She could avoid support poles in the middle if she used heavier roof beams. 16 ft. is a long span for a 2x6. I'm not going to look it up, but 2x12" beams would probably be appropriate. But those are going to be super heavy to handle solo. Over time I expect 16' 2'x6"s to start sagging under their own weight -- I have some 12' treated 2'x6" with no load on them at all that serve as gates for my cattle feeding area and they've warped and bent over time.
Damn, girl, you're tough as hell. Great work on everything. Thanks for showing the bloopers and outtakes, you make me realize I'm not the only one doing them. Hahah! Really impressive work and I appreciate the good content. Godspeed.
Very good content, and Wow. Thanks for keeping the 'bloopers' in, it shows what it really takes to do a build by yourself, and the 'learning' process that it takes as you go.
Question: I would have put concrete in when I set the corner poles, thinking it had to be firm before screwing and hammering. Is that not right? You leave that for last? Hope you see this a month after commenting. Thanks.
@@juliapope7663 the gravel is for drainage only concrete can be premixed and poured into the hole or poured in dry the water in the soil will make the concrete
@@markcampbell1417Sorry, I must have sounded confused. My question is, should the gravel and/or cement be put into the holes when the post are put in, or is it okay to wait until construction is complete. I know you don't want to sound critical of the video, and I don't either, but I am getting ready to do something similar and I thought that the posts should be firm before construction. I just want to be sure to do it correctly and, frankly, this did confuse me slightly.
My respect 🫡. These days not that many strong woman like you mentally and positive like you. Great job. I ve been thinking about to start mine too. Thanks for sharing 👏🏽
I worked construction for a number of years while going to college. You did a great job and to be honest, even the people doing it for a living make mistakes and drop stuff. Two suggestions. One, when installing your boards at the top of the posts, screw a 2x4 to the post perpendicular to the way the new board will be running. This way you'll have more than just the width of a 2x4 to rest your new board on. Second, on each post add a board angled from the post up to your board running acrossed the top. I prefer to mount it on the post about 2'-3' from the top and just run it at a 45* angle. This diagonal bracing will prevent side to side and front to back movement.
Love this, I search pole barns and metal sheds/ buildings popped up everywhere 🙄 this is exactly what I need…great work, looks awesome and very inspiring ❤
I think it's safe to say she hasn't handled a lot of poles or wood, but, damn if she doesn't have some perseverance and no-quit attitude! Kudos to doing this all by yourself! Well done!
Hell yeah Sister! Gettin it done! ❤ I felt every board drop, every slam of the hole digger and even the nose shot like it was my own. Strong, independent women will figure it out or die tryin.
Thank you for showing the tough parts of building by yourself. Most videos leave that out. I commend your doggedness in sticking with the job. As a result I am suscribing to your channel for your honesty, integritiy and resourcefulness. God grant you many, many years. I look forward to more videos like this.
Outstanding! Whether I would have done any, some, all or none of the project like you is immaterial. There are 100 ways to do anything. As someone that has accomplished a project or 2 while working alone over the years, you captured those frustrations perfectly. Pole barn is up. Looks well built to me. I would certainly feel comfortable putting the best tractor I owned, a classic car, a pile of hay or the firewood under it without reservation. Well done.
Just built my 1st lean roof sawmill shed. This reminds me of me working on it. This is a lot tougher than people may think especially by yourself. You are a tuff and smart girl, good job! You should be proud!
I loved the snake check on that piece of tin. My hubby, a city boy, learned the hard way about doing that shortly after we bought our farm. The height to which he threw that sheet of 4x8 plywood would have been super impressive had he not squealed like a girl while doing it. 🤣
You are a force to be reckoned with! Excellent job and pushed through all of the frustrating times. Love the pup and great training. I have subscribed to see what all you accomplish. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for showing us the issues you had!!! It’s realistic to drop stuff and have things go wrong. Those clamps that you squeeze to close helped me a TON!!!
Great video, love that you didn't edit out the mishaps I'm learning a lot from You tube and how to do things on my own. You're a strong intelligent young lady thank you.
You are inspiring and give me hope. I know that I can do what I want by myself too. Often times we don't life our dreams because we don't want to do it alone. Thank you.
Just a note for next time. Measure the width of your board, mark it from the top down carry your ladder to 1st post aline the top of board to top of post put a screw through the middle just to hold in place (dont drive screw all the way in). As you lift the opposite end the board will swing into place. No more dropping the board. Edited to say You are doing amazing!! Love your content!
Kudos to you, my new hero. Having to work alone, you are forced to innovate & adopt the intention of "if first you don't succeed....." Thanks for being real w/ us.
Love your build edit. My strat for dealing with dropping pencils and tapes is to have a couple on me when I'm up high just in case. I also love to forget to bring stuff up the ladder (ADHD). Inspiring af, my janky Harbor Freight tarp carport is falling apart and this is what I really needed to see. I've never done anything like this either.
I felt every drop of lumber, hit finger/nose, pull, back aching, drop of sweat, and strain of this build. One can only be proud when they look back and see what they built with their hands. Gonna have to build another barn this year. I will likely have a few hammer throws in mine too.
My mama always said don’t wait for the menfolk to do it..ploughing into it and do it yourself. She built a greenhouse in her 70s using scrap lumber and a hammer and nails. She was still using the greenhouse in her 90s.
I'm looking to build a structure to cover my motorcoach cabin and you just taught me more in silence than the last 100 videos . you skip half way through them and they guy is still telling you who he is and what he's going to be showing you today... this is just straight to the point visual. Very nice. That's the second time today that a lady taught me a "manly" skill. Earlier I learned how to sharpen my chainsaw from another lady. Gender aside though this was just objectively informative and much appreciated. Thank you for sharing!
This was super realistic. I keep seeing all these builds showing you "how easy it is to do it yourself" only to feel like a complete idiot and clutz during the process. I can definitely see how hard it is, all the work that went into it, not speeded up, and skipped to the final stages and made to look like it can be done in one day. You can definitely see it took you a few days and how hard it is to do by yourself. I definitely appreciate the reality of building something, especially alone.
First of all great video,,watching you figure out ways to build without a helper reminded me of my younger days,,never had any help but managed to find a way to build several shed and pole barns,,howis that such a pretty lady doesent have guys lined to help her,,those who havent ever built anyhting dont know the aches and pains we get next day from going up and down a ladder,,very impressed with your skills,,
Quick tip, screw the support boards in on the face 90 degrees to the board you are trying to set into place. Hard to explain, but once you get it, it works much better. You can also use quick grip clamps and just clamp the clamp to the 4-by then rest the board you are installing on the bar of the clamp. Then clamp the opposite end into place, then come back and clamp the 2-by in place to the 4-by. This probably makes zero sense.... sorry, ez to do, but Not ez to explain in text. I've done a lot work by myself, so I share in your misery. Great job by the way. Keep it up.
That makes total sense, put the 2x perpendicular, so that you have a "4" rest" for your board. Or a clamp. Or I was thinking I would drive a line of screws at a 45 into my "helper board" and that way the beam I am trying to set can wriggle off of it. It would give the helper board a "lip".
Nothing hotter than a woman building a pole barn and fighting thru frustration with problem solving on the fly! Love your videos! Keep up the good work 😅
Fair amount of tenacity, way to go. For ease of building alone, use more temp blocks so you're not repeatedly dropping boards. Believe me, I'm an old cogger and have learned lessons you don't have to suffer through. Keep up the good work!!
loved it. so nice to see a no nonsense build video that doesnt include all the unnecessary talking and overexplaining. I loved the random turtle clip. haha ❤
Wow that was impressive. You got that built all by your,self with only simple tools, great job. I put the poles up first then the concrete and let it set, then add the high stuff. Those falling boards would drive me nuts. Great video thanks
I feel your frustration at times. I myself am a 'lone farmer'. It gets easier, yet harder at times. The whole mentality is to get it done and done right . Prayers are just as valuable as your time ! It works ...
Not only are you inspiring women everywhere including ME!! But girl your body is ripped!! You look amazing!! Thank you for these videos!! GOALS!!! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
I genuinely appreciated you showing the parts where you looked just absolutely over it and still figured out a way to manage it! I would have never thought of adding the diagonal piece of wood to hold your big one in place long enough to get it screwed in. Really inspiring!
Yep
Finally a real world experience.
So true
I was thinking the same thing. I love that she showed the whole picture. You're awesome ma'am 😊
Agree! So glad you kept it completely real because the struggle for all of us is real❤ I’m constantly riding the struggle bus but by simply keeping at it where there’s a will there’s a way!❤
The best part of this build! You being real enough to show what happens to DIY’ers and Pro’s everyday, the drops, finger pinching, head butts and generally wanting to set fire to the build but keeping level headed, great job. ❤
😂
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
When she learns to notch, it's game over for the wood!
Yeah hitting your nose really hurts too, but she handled it like a champ! haha
It’s refreshing to see normal people build something that’s clearly frustrating for a solo diy.
Good job 👏
As a former construction worker...I gotta say I feel every single one of those times you had a side glance to the camera. "Count to three" moment for sure.
Trying to build like that, on your own, is when you realize how frustrating ONLY having two hands can be.

She taught herself by learning by doing and watching youtube videos. Its not that hard, just time consuming and requires a lot persistence.

Loved it. Showing your experience with all of the human frailties and accomplishments. You never gave up. You're a winner.
I was with you for every time that pole dropped to the ground. Good for you for sticking at it.
Great job, appreciate the hardwork and not cutting out the struggles. You make it real unlike so many vids where they try to edit the video to look so simple. I been there and it’s a lot of work doing a pole barn alone. I used logs from trees on my property. ❤
I’m enjoying your videos. Thanks for the content!
excellent job! gives me inspiration to redo mine right after my ex-husband did it wrong when i told him this is how you do it. Girl Power!!!
Yes we want to see that video!!
Leaving in the scrapes and bruises during your WORK makes your content full of meaning and not lost in edited
You're one determined lady and you didn't let that pole barn kick your butt. Darn good job, kudos to you. Steve
Good job! One suggestion: i wld put a support beam in the middle coz thats a long span 👍🏻

Great job. Few real women like her around anymore!
I really admire you impressed with you building that shed on your own even with the struggles that you had. ☺👍 great job.
Very good content, and Wow. Thanks for keeping the 'bloopers' in, it shows what it really takes to do a build by yourself, and the 'learning' process that it takes as you go.
You are just pure determination girl!! Awesome!! But please be sure to also treat yourself with TLC when you need it!!! ❤❤
Helpful tip get gravel to put in the bottom of the post holes in Florida soil is so wet it will help with drainage over time great work also 😊
I was wondering if she should pour some concrete around the pole base or maybe it wouldn't set up? I'm not familiar with Florida.
Question: I would have put concrete in when I set the corner poles, thinking it had to be firm before screwing and hammering. Is that not right? You leave that for last? Hope you see this a month after commenting. Thanks.
@@lhmccool67 pour it in dry it will pull enough water from the soil to make concrete set the gravel at the boys drainage only

Girl!! Love your grit!! You got it done! Fantastic!!
Thanks for showing us the issues you had!!! It’s realistic to drop stuff and have things go wrong.
Those clamps that you squeeze to close helped me a TON!!!
I haven’t built one in a while but needing to build one now in the place I’m at. I actually learned a few things watching this as a refresher.
You remind me of myself! I do everything by myself too! You did a great job and should be so proud of yourself!!!
I admire your industry! I’m learning a lot, too!
You did great! I admire your attitude. I love how you take care of the dog, bed, fan, water, Love!
Great video, love that you didn't edit out the mishaps I'm learning a lot from You tube and how to do things on my own. You're a strong intelligent young lady thank you.
Very well trained pup! I love that you put a fan there for him. ❤
Love how you show how many times your wood fell. And you problem solved your solution. So inspiring
You are inspiring and give me hope. I know that I can do what I want by myself too. Often times we don't life our dreams because we don't want to do it alone. Thank you.
You go girl! You got this! Good job. Love your "scare the mice/spiders/snakes away" trick!
I would recommend some diagonal braces.
Finalmente alguien que muestra la frustración que pasamos cuando las cosas se ponen dificiles, excelente 👌 video.
Love the fact your showing the work can be done alone zero help
Girl. You are a boss! Carrying all that lumber and throwing bags of quickcrete over your shoulder like it’s nothing was crazy! Great job!
Just a note for next time. Measure the width of your board, mark it from the top down carry your ladder to 1st post aline the top of board to top of post put a screw through the middle just to hold in place (dont drive screw all the way in). As you lift the opposite end the board will swing into place. No more dropping the board.
Edited to say You are doing amazing!! Love your content!
I wondered if she might want to bolt to the posts. 🤔
I know the struggles and i appreciate showing it. You did an awesome job.
Girl, I feel you. Sometimes it feels overwhelming and another hand would make it 100 x easier. Inspirational! Inspired me to not give up.
Kudos to you, my new hero. Having to work alone, you are forced to innovate & adopt the intention of "if first you don't succeed....." Thanks for being real w/ us.
Love your build edit. My strat for dealing with dropping pencils and tapes is to have a couple on me when I'm up high just in case. I also love to forget to bring stuff up the ladder (ADHD). Inspiring af, my janky Harbor Freight tarp carport is falling apart and this is what I really needed to see. I've never done anything like this either.
No else going to talking about the suppressed laughter in the background? Either way way to go! I am impressed!
She is a working.like a hulk . . That too she has done all this work by herself without any help . . . Kudos . . Definitely an inspiration . .
Outstanding! All the good, the bad, and beautiful you battling… great video
I felt every drop of lumber, hit finger/nose, pull, back aching, drop of sweat, and strain of this build. One can only be proud when they look back and see what they built with their hands. Gonna have to build another barn this year. I will likely have a few hammer throws in mine too.

Very well done. Enthusiasm and determination were 100%.
Quick tip, screw the support boards in on the face 90 degrees to the board you are trying to set into place. Hard to explain, but once you get it, it works much better.

I like that, putting the assist board at 90 degrees is the way (if you don't have clamps)
I can feel the frustration and persistence.I have been in this same spot building a building and dropping the boards a million times.
You done pretty darn good young lady. Overcoming the obstacles and figuring out the tricks to accomplish your goal with the will to prevail.
Love the tenacity & perservance! Sharing the oops parts is keeping it honest😊
Great work on everything you do
Be safe and live life to the fullest and enjoy what you love doing 😊
Nothing hotter than a woman building a pole barn and fighting thru frustration with problem solving on the fly! Love your videos! Keep up the good work 😅
This young lady is awesome and tenacious. Very impressive problem solver too. WTG!
Thank you for Showing the Way things really can Happen…Well Done.
Fair amount of tenacity, way to go. For ease of building alone, use more temp blocks so you're not repeatedly dropping boards. Believe me, I'm an old cogger and have learned lessons you don't have to suffer through. Keep up the good work!!
loved it. so nice to see a no nonsense build video that doesnt include all the unnecessary talking and overexplaining. I loved the random turtle clip. haha ❤
You are my HERO! Very impressive and inspiring!
The turtle 🐢 ♥️ 😍 So beautiful!!!! You did an amazing job! Looks great!
I love how you left the little incidents/mistakes in...that's real life 👍
Plus that's a fine dog you got there ❤
You did a fantastic job,be proud it's not easy working alone. Way to go😊
Love the way you show even the hard parts, it’s very difficult to build something on your own with no help at all!
Great job..girl power! 🫶🏻🍀
Wow that was impressive. You got that built all by your,self with only simple tools, great job. I put the poles up first then the concrete and let it set, then add the high stuff. Those falling boards would drive me nuts. Great video thanks
This was fun to watch. I loved all of the oops-e-daises you kept in.
Love to see 1 person jobs. Great work
I feel your frustration at times. I myself am a 'lone farmer'. It gets easier, yet harder at times. The whole mentality is to get it done and done right . Prayers are just as valuable as your time ! It works ...
Not only are you inspiring women everywhere including ME!! But girl your body is ripped!! You look amazing!! Thank you for these videos!! GOALS!!! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
well done "former office girly" you are doing a great job ....two thumbs up!!
