There was a machine shop in north New York state that had dirt floors and the building was a pole barn. The shop had been in business since ww2. They did excellent work. Good luck
if you use road mat instead of the Geo cloth, it comes in 13 foot wide rolls and a bit thicker. In my area we buy it from Ferguson. Nice start on a great bldg! crushed rock compacted with a double drum roller makes a beefy/inexpensive floor that can also be a base for whatever you do later. Nicely done!
I'm not about to tell a grown man what to do. But I spent roughly a decade machining. Operating everything from Fanuc to mach 3 systems. I'm all for a poor man's project. I'm always looking for the most inexpensive way to do things myself. I'm absolutely terrified thinking about CNC machines sitting on rock. If you endure a catastrophic failure through bad inputs etc, that will generate enough energy to throw the machine on its side. It could seriously hurt somebody or worse. Something to consider, is slab of concrete with rebar and threaded tie-downs exclusively for the machines
I'm a maintenance manager for a company with over 250 cnc machine tools. None of our lathes are anchored into concrete. I would worry more about how you plan to tram a mill out on an unfinished floor than tipping anything over. You could always pour concrete pads just for the machines. Beats guessing whether it's going to work.
Also if gravity inverts momentarily it can send the machines flying into the air, then they fall on whoever is next to them. Very dangerous. Seen it happen enough times to bet on it.
@@MikeYurbasovich that's crazy. I seen machines jump due to a catastrophic programming error. And you guys have 250 machines in which I'm sure OSHA has paid a visit many times and said that's fine. So I guess it's a thing.
@JohnSmith-bh8um Most lathes don't even have provisions for anchoring. Only when you get up into 800mm vtl's where they expect a slab to be poured do you see through holes in the leveling bolts. Mills are a different story, though. Sometimes, to get your tram, you must anchor them. OSHA has no idea what they are looking at with these machines.
Before you move on to converting the trussed tent into a permanent dwelling, I'd suggest having a structural engineer review your plan. These very light frames that hold fabric may not have much excess capacity to attach lots of wood framing, sheathing(?), insulation and interior finishes(?). They SHOULD be able to resist some wind and snow capacity, and it may be a lot, and you may have studied that already, but if not you need to know real good what all that is before adding more dead load to it. Then you have the legality of making this all pass code in your jurisdiction. Commercial buildings (excluding Residential and some Agricultural) typically require an Architect or P.E. to help cover all the bases. But hey, you are making it go, so good luck.
I think your building is nice. And you're up and running. I am impressed. You can certainly upgrade later like you plan to do. I just subscribed to your channel. Have a great weekend. 👍🇺🇸👍
I like it, spacious and wide. With the head space you could build loft space on either side. Great find, looking forward to see where you're going to take it. Have a good day.
I use to put up those hoop shelter. We use to put 8x8 post and build a wall around the bottom and bolt the hoop ends to the tops of the post. You may wanta put couple industrial fans up on top to move the heat. That way you could used the post for your big door and the service door. That's going to be a nice shop. Do concrete pads under your machines. Run your wood stove heat in to a big main duct. The wood will get pricey and time consuming maybe think bot a waste oil furnace or a propane heater that run the length of you shop it be suspended by the peak. Sorry for the rambling stuff have a great day n keep up the great videos.
Nice man thanks for the advice. I actually just installed a big exhaust fan up top and put a vapor barrier inside. Pads for the machines are a great idea!
The way to keep the wood stove from sucking cash is the just basically cut your own wood and get it free. You could also have medium to large size metal containers that are vented that are heated with that would and therefore they become a thermal battery for you even when you've only got a couple logs inside.
I’m looking into a shop for my semi truck but on a constricted budget. This is definitely an interesting idea to start with! I have to do alot of things in stages due to time and money. I’m thinking put one of these up and add wood and tin to it as I can to convert it to a “pole barn” down the line. Probably will cost me more in the long run but there’s a ying to every yang I suppose.
Along the way, If your funds allow, I'd add some Lumber along both Sides, joined in a "L", to both add Stiffness, as Bracing, and Shelving Space between the Steel Frames. Bolted to the Steelwork, and in two Levels: a Lower and an Upper Level!
We bought 5.5 acres, spent a couple weeks with our skid steer clearing a build site and then spent $200k building a 60x80x24 tall steel building. I kind of wish we went your way.
@prestigemanufacturing2611 I did a ton of the work on the building myself but there were parts of it I couldn't pull off without help from other trades. It was also very helpful my father was a retired General contractor and knew how to oversee a jobsite and keep subs on task. We still spent a bunch in the end but it was the right time to do it in 2019. Just before the covid drama.
Frickin' Brilliant! You've got the beefy trusses, you can add on as money and time permit! Hope you're not too cold the first winter, though! lolz, I see you've been thinking of that! I cannot think how to raise the capital for a 3-d metal print shop equipment, but that's my dream.
I want to add my concerns about what you have. For very short term use, you may be fine but I would be concerned about wind loading on your structure. Secondly how long will that fabric actually last considering what the UV rays of the sun will do? I understand the budget issue but if you don’t have a plan on creating a secure exterior then you could have something that will come tumbling down. The ribs of the structure can withstand how much weight? I recognize that when these ribs are tied together it can make for an extremely strong structure to a point. I would definitely be planning on reinforcing what you have put up and adding additional ribs to spread your load out.even further.
Thanks for the concern. If you watch the video to the end, my plan actually is that hopefully the fabric will last until next season and at that point I’m actually going to reinforce it and skin it like a pole barn.
you can spray foam between the poles , idk about the price of that, but it at least won't flap in the wind and keep some heat in winer. in this case i was also thinking about adding chicken wire in the foam to strengthen it
That’s a good suggestion. I was thinking about that myself and wondering how I could get the foam to stick in between the polls because it’s a long span.
What is your plan for moisture inside the building. With temp changes you will get dew building up on the machines which will lead to rust on precision parts.
I’m actually in the process now of installing a vapor barrier in between the outside and the inside of the building. I’m putting the vapor barrier on the inside part of the double truss and then I’m going to insulate it eventually, but for now just having that vapor barrier will keep the moisture away from anything inside of the building. At least I hope lol
Heck of a deal. Where abouts are you? No building codes in your area? Power companies are getting really fussy in some states, and won't provide service unless all sorts of picky conditions are met.
I wonder if you can sheath the outside with a lightweight material. I just worry about protecting the expensive equipment inside from weather. Insurance is slow to deal with and a pain. Biggest problem is downtime and losing customers in the process. Just a thought.
Love to see your still active man! Shop looks great for a start. Definitely need to fill out that frame with something more sturdy to protect your investment. Looking forward to future vids!
I’m actually in the process of putting a second layer of plastic up right now inside and connecting more boards to make it more sturdy. Thanks for watching man!
Cheap is my language. Time will tell how well it works, not the haters. Besides, doing experiments like this is the scientific way. Who knows until you try. Its an adventure for the time being.
If you poured a continuous footing it would be easy to fill in the walls later? , you could also use high density foam and make it a very strong building.
Love it I'm trying to break out of a cycle I hate spending major amounts of money for an apartment I do not want to rent a expensive three-bedroom house so I can have a two car garage. I'm trying to break the cycle I would love to get a deal with a farmer who will let me have a little bit of land to do this.
@prestigemanufacturing2611 well I over shot your video. I was thinking those hook together plastic forms that people fill with rock to make a road, but that was moisture barrier in the video. Both work for that project. The plastic forms would be for heavy items, RV's, trucks, equipment. Hold tons of weight & strong like concrete.
I got a slightly smaller building from the auction. My question is, did you apply for a building permit, since that is actually not a permanent building? Second question is, could you please share what dimensions you’re concrete footers are?
I didn’t have to get a permit because the county I’m in told me it’s considered a temporary building. I made my footers 20”x20” so I had plenty of extra wiggle room on the pad to line everything up. Thanks for the view.
A lot to say here. I bought a tent garage from harbor freight. Wind took it out in a year. I have seen tent buildings in horse show environment last but the material is more stout than what you have there. I hope it lasts. I do know though it is temporary. So plan to fix in the future or your tools will have rain on them. So save what you can as you get jobs done to fix building.
In the military, specifically in Iraq, we had inflatable clam shells... in other words a very large tent big enough to hold helicopters. Im not sure the price point. However... Ive also seen a play on the inflatable structures where people spray the outside with concrete. Add chicken wire and spray again. Then remove the inflatable.
The deal with the inflatable is is that there is positive pressure extending an all directions so that when you do apply layer on the outer side it has the resistance that won't work with this style of easy up building

Looks nice, and nice job but! that wont last 2 years before rips start happening, once its ripped then leaks, and damage! Hope im wrong but fabric especially out in the sun, just will not last, neither does plastic, and what about the rats mice and vermin? critters like that can do real damage! anyway thats my 2 cents hope im wrong good luck
@@prestigemanufacturing2611you can always take a section of it and place it under a hydraulic press that has the digital readout and so has it slowly starts to come down on it and then when it starts to deform, stop the press that will give you a little idea of the weight or pounds per square inch it will handle. I don't think you have any square tube or 90 degree frame sections. I think it's all Cylindrical tubing so you want to make sure that the thickness is a minimum of 3/16 preferably 1/4 inch or thicker. Those tubes aren't hard to bend/collapse given the right force/impact+load+shear direction(s).
Totally upgradeable too, can come back later and put cross floor frames in and pour concrete, its double truss so you can add walls and roof and support beams down the length
You don’t think the frame would be able to handle 1 by 2 inch furring strips just to attach the corrugated steel? The frame is pretty thick and seems pretty strong.
@prestigemanufacturing2611 probably can but its not needed if you go with commercial structural paneling you would leave the plastic on as your vapor barrier as well
I got single phase because it was free and I already have a 40 hp phase converter. I could’ve had 3 phase installed but it would’ve costed about $5,000
I’m sorry but this looks rather flimsy. It’s basically a large tent. Seems a storm will rip this place up. Good thing we don’t have strong storms in the U.S. right? It’s cheap now, but when this place is blown down and all your expensive machines get rained on and blown all over the place would it be worth it?
@@prestigemanufacturing2611 I am kinda concerned with the commenter. Hopefully you don't live where the winds get fast or you have heavy snowfall as my friend built something similar and they material didnt last long under the weight. Wishing you the best with the build though hopefully it's not a problem.
@@prestigemanufacturing2611 I paused to comment in the last 30 seconds then heard your plan for the roofing, I think that's a great idea nevermind my original comment sorry LOL
These make great (in stages) buildings.... bought two from temu last yr and did the same...ITS CALLED WORKING WITH WHAT YOU HAVE!!!SAME PRINCIPLES THAT MADE AMERICA TO START WITH.🤯🇺🇲💯GIVE,EM HELL BROTHER👍💯🇺🇲

You should put sheet metal on it in the future. It’ll be alot stronger. Definitely intrigued. Great work
That's the plan! Thanks for the support!
In Afghanistan after a while when they were getting old they would just encapsulate the whole tents in spray foam.
I thought about that. Maybe add some extra ribbbing and spray
You could always apply a rubber or elastomeric coating to the top to give it a half a chance past once season, too.

always enjoy watching your videos man, gives me a huge sense of inspiration and hope that I can someday do something similar without going into debt
Thanks man !
Yeah it's big but I don't see it holding up in a storm maybe the frame will but that big tent on it is gonna blow away
Well we’ve had two tornados 🌪️ come through and it’s still standing 🤷🏻♂️

Could you post the brand of your building. I love it
Thanks. It’s a hills industrial
You could always skin it in metal sheeting and make it permanent.

Hell of a deal add metal all over. Great job

Nice man. I definitely wouldn’t hesitate to pick one up!! Thanks for watching and subscribing!
It would make a good stepping stone if the quality is good enough and then use it as a secondary building or phase it out over time.
Definitely
A lot to say here. I bought a tent garage from harbor freight. Wind took it out in a year.

So plan to fix in the future or your tools will have rain on them. So save what you can as you get jobs done to fix building.
I’m not sure how thick the tent garage fabric from harbor freight is but this stuff if 22 mil thick
In the military, specifically in Iraq, we had inflatable clam shells... in other words a very large tent big enough to hold helicopters.
Im not sure the price point.
However...
Ive also seen a play on the inflatable structures where people spray the outside with concrete. Add chicken wire and spray again.
Then remove the inflatable.
That’s a good idea !
The deal with the inflatable is is that there is positive pressure extending an all directions so that when you do apply layer on the outer side it has the resistance that won't work with this style of easy up building
@lyleg.9192
Agreed.
It will have to be some type of dome type shape that allows for self support.
Good point
Looks easy to turn into a barndominium. I like it.
Thanks 🙏
Hills Industrial is that the name of the fabric or just a name for the building.
Who is making it and where is it made? I guess its a Chine made.... hoping Im wrong.
Yes it’s made in china im pretty sure
Dude UA-cam keeps shadow banning your content and i am subscribed. I love your videos, why why why?
😱 well I’m glad you found the video anyway!
Money
I think this would work really well with spray foam
I thought about that
You could put a woodstove and build a house inside that !
Absolutely!
one day you could just sheet metal right over the fabric and itll act as a vapour barrier (maybe)
That’s what I was thinking too
You could spray it wilt Styrofoam and spray stucco over it. Thats how they build those geo dome houses.
I saw a couple videos on that. It looks cool
A lot of these buildings are available on government surplus websites.
Thanks. I never looked there
Looks nice, and nice job but! that wont last 2 years before rips start happening, once its ripped then leaks, and damage! Hope im wrong but fabric especially out in the sun, just will not last, neither does plastic, and what about the rats mice and vermin? critters like that can do real damage! anyway thats my 2 cents hope im wrong good luck

Question... how did you get the frames up? You skipped that part of the build. Did you use a crane?
It happened quick in the video but if you go to 4:10 you can see us using my skid steer to pull the first two pieces of frame up. Thanks for the view
How will you level your machines? And keep them level?
Steel plates under the feet. I packed the ground and it’s hard as concrete so they shouldn’t sink.
Where'd the steel come from? Good quality steel?
I’m pretty sure it was made in China, like everything else lol

Where I’m at it does
Totally upgradeable too, can come back later and put cross floor frames in and pour concrete, its double truss so you can add walls and roof and support beams down the length
That’s the plan as soon as I can
WOW I MUST SAY !! I PERSONALLY THINK YOUR RISK VERSUS REWARD IS IN YOUR FAVOR . I THINK YOU DID GOOD !!!
Thank you 🙏
How will you keep the tweekers out?
I’ll find a way 😂
Is this is temporary while you build something with solid walls?
I’m going to use the frame and put sheet metal on it like a pole barn
How long is the cover warrantied for?
It says 10 years but it’s from China so you can take that for what it’s worth 😂
Structual corrugated steel panels are much lighter those trusses can't handle the weight of wood the price is the same
You don’t think the frame would be able to handle 1 by 2 inch furring strips just to attach the corrugated steel? The frame is pretty thick and seems pretty strong.
@prestigemanufacturing2611 probably can but its not needed if you go with commercial structural paneling you would leave the plastic on as your vapor barrier as well
Thanks. I’ll definitely check that out when I’m closer to the time
it's the Greatest Show on Earth
🙏🙏
For $3k that’s awsome
Thanks
If I am look for a building like this what is it called?
Peaked roof Fabric building
how long it will last under the sun?
It’s rated for 10 years but I plan on skinning it with pole barn metal next year so hopefully I’ll never find out lol
"If the building collapses mid-project, think of it as an open-air CNC experience. Who needs walls when the real luxury is the adrenaline?"
👍
Where did you buy the building?
I say at the end of the
looks good
Thanks I appreciate it
Spray foam the inside
I thought about that but it wouldn’t have anything to stick to. I actually recently put up a vapor barrier.
Nice for the price
Thanks 🙏
I'd do soil mixed with concrete way cheaper look it up
I definitely will look into that
Yea that’s nice
Thanks
Hope it doesn’t snow where you’re at 😬
It does….

Are they installing 3-phase?
I got single phase because it was free and I already have a 40 hp phase converter. I could’ve had 3 phase installed but it would’ve costed about $5,000
@ Sounds like a wise decision. At that price you could purchase multiple large VFDs and/or phase converter and still be money ahead.
Definitely
What state are you in
Middle of the us
Shows a picture of a different building. This is a very large tent. 2 different things
🤷🏻♂️
@prestigemanufacturing2611 Whatever you gotta do for the views, right?
Whatever you say man
Thankyou 😊
Thanks for the view 🙏
Did you get permission to build this? I would think you would need it for a structure this size.
Where I live in the county, it is considered a temporary building and they told me I don’t require a permit for a building like this.
@@prestigemanufacturing2611 your so lucky
That’s one of the reasons I moved here 😂
You sure everything is steel? Stick a magnet on those trusses
Yes it is. Thanks for the view
@@prestigemanufacturing2611 Np, thanks for the video and the reply!
Dude said he built a building for under $4000?
He should have said that he built a tent for under $4000!!!!!😢

Smokin deal
Thank you 😁
You lucky bas…d 😂😂😂😂
😂🙏🙏
its not a building! it''s a tent!
🤷🏻♂️
Yah shoor yoobetcha. I'm gonna stuff a million dollars worth of my machine shop tools, materials and equipment into a cloth building.
Are you?
I’m sorry but this looks rather flimsy. It’s basically a large tent. Seems a storm will rip this place up. Good thing we don’t have strong storms in the U.S. right? It’s cheap now, but when this place is blown down and all your expensive machines get rained on and blown all over the place would it be worth it?
😂
@@prestigemanufacturing2611 I am kinda concerned with the commenter. Hopefully you don't live where the winds get fast or you have heavy snowfall as my friend built something similar and they material didnt last long under the weight. Wishing you the best with the build though hopefully it's not a problem.
@@prestigemanufacturing2611 I paused to comment in the last 30 seconds then heard your plan for the roofing, I think that's a great idea nevermind my original comment sorry LOL
