Travis from Backwoods built our pole barn as well. I just dropped on Mrs. Piney Grove this morning my plan for an equipment shed!! You can never have too many farm buildings!
brad hooefuly she said yes and would love to see it! take care!
They've been a great company to support.
WooHoo 🎉🎉 I love the wood cutting and chainsaw videos so I'm excited to see this build. 👏👏👏Take care.
Another great video! Congratulations!
Congratulations on the new addition to the homestead, you have a wonderful supporting wife and both of you deserve all the best in life. Can’t wait to the sawmill videos. 😀
Thank you for watching and the support
Excited to see the new building and everything that goes in it. I don’t think it makes too much difference if you do your dirt work before or after, but I would peel the sod off.
For sure getting that sod out thanks!
I was thinking that’s what you might be up to. Nice. My vote on the dirt. Wait till the building is up
Thank you for watching
Very exciting:)
Big plans
Your one of smartest men,I know.Your capable of doing so many things.God Bless you and Tiffany.
God bless!
That barn will really come in handy for you. I am happy for you guys. 🤠
Yes it will thanks!
Hey sounds fantastic guys. The two of you are so compatible and agreeable with each other. Can’t wait to see the build, it will be fantastic. See you on the live. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦
See you then
Sounds like a plan! Can't wait to see it! See you on the live tonight at 7PM EST! Always a great time!
See you then!
Your dirt guy is probably busy hauling storm debris currently. I’d likely build the barn as you stated and then bring in and level the pad as needed afterwards.
That's true, there's probably a lot more money to be making in storm cleanup and a load of dirt.
@@TKCL yes storm debris removal is a very lucrative proposition . You see all of the trailers, dump trucks and dump trailers with plywood extensions on the sides so they can haul bigger loads which equates to more money per load. I know several guys that made some serious legitimate money after Hurricane Michael hauling debris.
Unfortunately storms of this magnitude also brings out corruption when dealing with FEMA funding. We’ve had a couple of local ongoing scandals where several elected officials and local business owners conspired together and basically stole over 5 million dollars of taxpayer money. We will never get the whole truth from what actually happened, but several people are currently serving some jail time for it.
World is full of crooked people sadly.
Good job on the additional barn! Might want to check your hydraulic hoses on the front grapple. Looks like some fluid was dripping. Hope not but better safe than sorry. Always best to keep things under cover. God bless!
I did bust one hose doing all that work over at my parents, I just got it replaced. Take care and God bless!
Happy for you guys! Can't wait to see it going up!
Coming soon!
Looking forward to this new project going up. Also love hearing more solar for your property.
Coming soon!
I was wondering where all these different bigger Solis tractors and equipment were going to be housed at. Can’t wait to get back to the channels roots and back to some wood cutting/splitting and property upkeep/management. Thanks for bringing us along on this crazy journey called life. God Bless buddy!
Thank you for watching, God bless!
Awesome! Can't wait to see this build!
Hope you enjoy it!
Thats ganna be a game changer in the wood splitting gig! Nice!!!
I'll have it made in the shade.
Congratulations on your pole barn, I am so happy for you guys 😊😊😊❤❤❤
Thank you
I was saying move it down when you were tamping the first spike in! #teamTiffany LOL
Can't wait! Good to see you more relaxed.
Wow. So happy for you both!
I would at least remove the grass😁 but I agree do the dirt work after the barn is up then you can work in the shade!!! 😎 Plus the finished pad will be spot on using a laser and the posts. That's how we did our barn. Congrats on the new barn build. 😁👍🚜💨🐓
Totally agree, thanks!
I think you should scrape the grass and topsoil off go down to the base layer and let them do whatever they need to do go back put another layer dirt and then top it with grapple and have it kind of sloping downhill a little bit so any water that gets in there with drain out
I'm kicking a few ideas around.
Sweet cant wait to see you cutting some of that beautiful wood that you been hauling in. You truly making your dreams come true brother. See you this evening at 7pm. Let get ready for sankie b-day party
Thank you for watching, see you then! Happy birthday!
Aww darn, I thought Tiffany was gonna get her horse barn! Guess I'll watch anyways lol..joking😂
Our barn is right in sight of our houses. It has animals in it though lol. It comes in handy when I have to get down there in a hurry when the goats are having their babies.
We do plan do build an animal barn next year as an addition to our big pole barn that's already up.
@@TKCL Cool! You mean the one in the carport that the chickens are under?
@lotus.... Correct
On the Stephanie Moratto channel they built out some nice stalls cheaply in a metal pole barn they had built. I think they did 5 or 6 stalls and a tackroom. We did similar ones in our 2808 sq ft quonset barn but with 9 stalls. We can fit 12 but we have a tackroom and hay storage/feed area and added a milkroom that we put a drain in the floor so it can double as a horse washroom (even tho FL doesnt need an indoor washroom lol).
12? 😬..... No no no 🤣
Congratulations on the new barn. Good idea on processing wood and future saw mill. Will be watching on the solar for the barn.
Looking forward to the solar for this.
Nice addition to the farm. You should not have any problems with having enough firewood to process for the foreseeable future.
Isn't that the truth!
Scrape off the sod then put gravel down after the barn is built. Gravel is a lot cleaner than dirt.
Gravel isn't a good choice for sawdust and shards of wood. It's very hard to rake or blow that out.
@@TKCL maybe. I have gravel in both of my wood sheds.
Hi, Andrew and Tiffany! I’m doing a happy dance down here in North Carolina. More firewood videos!!!!!
I'm thinking asphalt millings would be a better choice.
Last time I bought gravel it was cheaper to get larger granite gravel than asphalt millings. No kidding. If you go with a large granite gravel/rock make sure it has quite a bit of fines in it so you can walk on it and it be stable. It definitely won't blow away with blower.
Great addition to the property.
I would put the barn up first then you’ll know your exact floor finish height. I Would agree with many others that you should strip the sod off before putting the barn up.
Agreed
Andrew and Tiffany, Congrats on the new building. After your suggestion a few months back, I finally bought two buildings (30'x48'x14' & 24'x36'x10') from James and Jesse at Backwoods Buildings in Chipley about 6 weeks ago. They gave me a nice discount after I told them we were Patreon members of your channel, and you highly recommended them. They spoke very highly of you, and we thank you for that. Great customer service, good people. The hurricane screwed us up royally, so we are still trying to get trees cleaned up and the buildings up. If you don't mind saying, how much will your crew charge to put that 30'x48' up for you? Thanks again for what you do. I know you never ask for donations or members, but it is the best money anyone could spend if they are learning from you.
That's awesome to hear, thank you for mentioning us. My crew charges $2.75 a square foot for assembly.
@TKCL thank you. I will also follow your advice and speak with my wife about it.
@mss34698 smart man!
Well it’s been said a few times here already but I was gonna say nice addition to the farm , can’t wait and congrats.
Thank you for watching
Personally, I would set my pad the construct the building. I would be concerned even though it would only be inches, to lose height by setting posts then setting pad. Hope that makes sense. Keep the great videos coming!!
Fair enough!
I would scrape off the Sod and top soil. Always build on undisturbed ground. IE: Peel that cover soil off so you have a good foundation in case you ever decide to put a concrete pad in. Organics are not load bearing and any future pad will crack if it does not have a good base. Scrape the top off and that dirt you replace it with will make an excellent base for a future concrete pad. A buddy of mine had to do that very thing. He had to dig up his entire pole barn floor to get down to undisturbed soil when he went to put a concrete pad in several years after he erected the barn. The concrete people dug a test hole to see what was under his gravel base and found the topsoil and grass. They would not put their name on a job if it was not done properly.
Very valid point
Andrew I hope you do better than I did. We had some high winds and tornadoes over here , plus they are clearing land to build more houses and a school - you can't give away wood. You will be faced with the same issues after the storm for 3-5 years. Wish you all the best
Yeah it's bad timing for selling, but good timing for tree availability.
Congratulations on the newest addition to the property. It should make wood working.
Congratulations on the new barn. Looking forward to you getting a sawmill. Ive got a woodmizer mill. In my opinion they are the best. Great customer service. Im getting ready to start a home build with mine on our hew homestead in Tennessee.
Awesome, happy to hear about the customer service.
Haha Andrew!! Happy life, happy wife!!
Yep!
I had a feeling that’s what it was. I’m sure it’ll be amazing. Andrew like everything else. If they put it up before the dirt gets there make sure they take that into account so you don’t lose any height.
I've been kicking around the eve height, I think I want to go low since rain seems to always blow under my other ones. I'll make sure I stay high enough to accommodate a firewood conveyor
Tiffany needs a she shed. The in the future she’ll need a barn for her horses. 😊
And, I thought is was a house for Cash. Looking forward to watch the build.
Lol nope...
Congratulations, nice build. Are you planning to remove the sod before dumping all the dirt?
I'm not sure to be honest, I always do that before something like concrete.
@@TKCL it would just reduce filling in and leveling low spots later, whether it's stone or dirt.
Andrew, I would say remove the sod now, and then add the dirt and/or rock after the barn is complete!
Good day all.
Good day!
@@TKCL I do say.
put the dirt last. unless they go off the mesurements from the dirt. be bless and love and safe SAVANNAH TN.
I think what I would do is remove all the organics and Ruffin the pad, dump your dirt there and start getting it back down but not to the point where you’re trying to level it and make it completely perfect I would just get the bulk of the dirt in there And get a good bass down while the polls aren’t there and then they’ll drill the holes out and put the posts in and then you can finish it up but I think getting the grass out and clearing it and getting the bulk of the dirt in there and tempt down a little bit Would save you some headaches later.
I think so too
Haha! I called this with a comment earlier in the month (6 Sept I believe😊). Sawmill seems like a natural transition.
What do you envision the end goal for the mill being?
Btw, you have a great wife. Love how you two are on the same page.
No idea on the end goal, just going to figure it out as I go.
You were too funny about giving marital advice! That's going to be nice. When you said barn, I thought you were going to get some animals, but the location you were pointing to wasn't where I thought you'd put them. I'm excited to watch it go up. I think you will greatly benefit from a sawmill.
Go ahead and put the barn up. If you add a saw mill later, you will need a cocreate slap for the saw to keep it level. You will have to dig it out anyway.
There's many other ways to build a level surface for a sawmill. I'll have to see what I decide on.
We manufacture them kits at pdq in Dunnellon congrats man
They sure are popular
I kinda wanted to wait to post my response on the roof side.. I know you just have a thicker steal metal roof but I really think with the your position and where you are located Zip system 5/8" Roof & Wall Sheathing, 4' × 8' on the roof before laying down your metal sheathing.. This does a few things first thing is it helps insulate the heat off the metal roof next it also provides some protection from larger hail and debris. Also since this is going to be a wood shop it would come into handy if some thing was to fly off the blades and go to the ceiling.. Just a thought. Otherwise it looks amazing! What's your plans on the solar system? I am curious as all get out! You could trench a line and put in a line all the way yes its expensive but its also a thought depending on the mill you go with. Idk the more I think about it Zip system all the way around even on the walls even if you double layered it OSB the Zip system on the outside would be better in your area.. You have some weather to contend with and very very strong winds to worry about in your area.. Also thinking about longevity some as well.
No extra wood, adds a lot of weight and money. Plus I would need to engineer the trusses to higher loads ect. It starts adding up quickly!
@@TKCL Yeah but the way you all seem to get weather idk just one of those things that might need to be thought about in the future.. I can only imagine the amount of wind and hail that metal hast to hold up to.
Kisses from Azeitão Lisboa Portugal 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹❤️🤗😍😃❤️❤️😍😍😍😍
I bet your dirt guy is busy doing hurricane clean up work.
Probably exactly right
Leave more room off the woods if you can
Oh a wood working barn.!!!
Do I see a sawmill to go under that roof.??? Hmmm
Surprises.!!!!
That's the plan
👍👍...👀
Have you found a sawmill yet or do you have a certain kind in mind ? Just wondering because I have a HM126 Woodland Mills with track extensions it will cut up to 16’9” I purchased last year and I’m going to sale it for a great price. I had bought it to cut lumber with my son in law to build him and my daughter a house but the money was tight so I gave them my house and it’s not needed as much we still cut every now and then but I’m going to sale it.
I have talked with a couple of companies, one has not been released yet and I was thinking of waiting on it. Feel free to email me at kelleyscountry@gmail.com
You are always full of suprises
Why not just let the lower end of the barn be higher than the upper end? Leave the natural slope of the ground under roof.
I very well may, I was thinking about splitters, conveyors and a sawmill having a smooth and level surface to work on.
I also meant to add that we are going to level the ground after our buildings are up. This is new to me, but it seems that it would be much easier after the build with a laser level and box blade. Just my uninformed opinion.
Agreed
The "wait for podcast" secret is obvious. You found a way to acheive a very specific major goal. Not going to even risk spoiling it but I hope I am right!
Maybe....
@TKCL I was right! Very glad Tiffany can not just stay home but do whatever she needs or wants, rather than just work. I would be jealous except y'all earned this and there's nothing to be jealous about somebody earning everything they have. Congrats!
Thank you so much, your right!
Looks like the good advice about talking to your wife before you finalize if you've got somebody with Professional Knowledge willing to share that with you you have to kind of listen even if it's a little bit against what you wanted to hear kind of like the song says thank God for us answered prayers y'all keep up the great work and I think it was your last video you made a comment about storm clean-up you know people that don't understand that aren't realistic always remembering you got to do what you got to do what the whiners do not like the people not whining have no problem with not everyone's going to be a home run
Did they do your Barndo house plans
No, we had a local architect do those.
She is coming home to work with you ? ❤

Too much money, concrete outrageous right now.
I THOUGHT YOU LIVE IN FLORDIA. WHY DO YOU NEED FIREWOOD ? HOW COLD DOES IT GET WHERE YOU LIVE ?
Most likely wood will be for firepit fires that people enjoy in the evenings!!
Plenty of people here burn outdoors and have entertaining areas. Id be willing to bet more firewood is consumed for recreational purposes in the US than for heating. We still have people here that have indoor fireplaces. Last year we had one single digit day with wind chill, some teen days and a bunch of 20 degree days. Anything in the 70s or lower, fire pits pop up everywhere.
when r you two going to have a baby🎉
Not trying to be rude but that’s not a question we should ask couples. Some times infertility is a issue & really hurts when the question is asked. I’m not saying they have an issue. I’m just saying we shouldn’t ask that question unless they choose to bring it up in a vlog.
We had a full discussion about this on our podcast Channel where we discuss topics like this. It wasn't in the cards for us ua-cam.com/video/UtpJVnPGHxI/v-deo.html

I predict that the "announcement" tonight is that Tiffany is pregnant.
That's something people quite often very innocently assume is a choice for everyone.
It isn't an option for us.
