wow that is beautiful.. . I wouldn't put in the garage door, I would add two sets of French patio doors instead and then I would absolutely LIVE IN THIS building... wow..
Nice work! Very efficient building methods. I'd like to see more of how you finish it out with electrical, heating, insulation, and the rear deck addition. I would call this a "Carriage house" as opposed to a garage. This would be a nice way to add a rental apartment to a residential home site. Thanks
You make an outstanding video. You should make more. Your music, speech patterns and production are terrific. Nice work. Way too often folks who have no business making videos try to do it. You have the gift !
Kens crew does good work, I sould know been a union carpenter for 32yrs. First time that I watched. The sugestions and coments are inquisitive , I am shur they would like a little more feed back than just a; / Thanks.
I have done similar buildings here in Virginia. Always had to have the monolithic slab footing turn down to frost depth (32”) . Wish we could make our own trusses here too. Nice job. Thanks for posting.
Thanks true. A couple things for me. 1. The weight...I don’t have the same muscles from 20 years ago. :). 2. Sometimes there’s a slight variation in the concrete so the sheathed wall doesn’t sit flat.
California Union carpenter here...back in the day wall bangers were paid by the sq foot to stand walls...the bone yard would pre cut a header package,the bone would drop a load in front of the slab,1 man would pound the nails/no nail gun back than.Paid 22.00 bucks per Garage/took me 2 hours...
Morning. This is a nice garage with efficiency apartment above. Lots of light as well. Won’t feel closed in. Thanks for my daily dose. Enjoy your coffee.
That ladder hoist is the best. I’ll have to see if we can rent one. We’re thinking about building a garage w an apartment on top. Thank you for this video. We’re wanting to put a bedroom downstairs in the workshop and you mentioned using different products. This will be our “up north” get away so, you also mentioned how you have the windows high up for when your not there in hopes for a less break in. Love how you mentioned that as well. I did enjoy it! Michigan
This is great!! But I'd love to see it done inside... Thinking of adding a garage with an apartment for my Mother above it. Thanks for sharing, I'll take a look at your other videos. ps... Many of us are contemplating the same idea for our parents if you could keep us in mind as you build more.
The very last thing you should do is put the railing on the stairs, you will need every inch of clearance to get appliances and furniture up that staircase.
Hey Ken, My first time commenting. Love watching your videos, the length of your videos are perfect for a morning coffee and your content is precise and to the point, NO DRAMA, just a little humor now and then, thanks for that. I have many questions but that would take all morning and 10 cups of coffee. I don't know if you have a video of your tool trailer? if not, do you think it could be of any value or maybe just entertainment? Any how, great work, and have a great day. Stay safe.
pretty much exactly what i'm looking for. I'm in SW Missouri so i know you are not going to come out and build me one, but i would love to see you do a video on suggestions on how to select a contractor for such kind of buildings- what to ask, how to determine a rough but fair cost, any other due diligence you suggest, etc. That would be extremely helpful.
People worry about the silliest things. If they are going to break in, they are going to break in. The best way to go? Through the wall with a sawsall.
You should have put some insulation between wooden planks and concrete foundation. Concrete is cold and on warm air will create humidity which will be accumulated by wood.
I’d like to see a similar building built with Zip-Sheath product and maybe hardyboard siding vs. vinyl. Obviously, I’d like to see how it was finished. Insulation, plumbing, finish carpentry on the stairs. Very nice job.
Id love for you guys to build a garage for me. But, alas, Delaware is a tad more than 60 miles from you! lol I really like how down to earth you seem and how you explain what you are doing.
Very nice. I live in tornado country and do not know if the attachment of the walls to the foundation will pass around here. But, if not, they can be modified. Nice vid and nice job.
Thanks for the video. I am starting the thinking process of doing a 24' deep by 30' wide detached garage with an ADU above. I'll have a separate dedicated entrance for the ADU. I just haven't decided if I go a simple gable or perhaps a clerestory roof design.
Ken you folks done a beautiful job! Dang hard to find good, honest, and skillful works. I feel the contractor here ( Hawaii) always subcontracting there jobs and they do horrible job.and over priced. You folks are awesome!
I built a similar barn with stick for 1st floor and post/beam second floor/third floor. A little movement upstairs but so far held up even in high winds.
Nice build , A team that has obviously worked together awhile, If this was going to be my place I think I would opt for outside stairs to entry off the back deck and do away with the loss of floor space in the garage..Just me
What a ruff estimate for foundation plus lumber/materials to pull off something like this. Fully done plumbing electrically etc if you know off top. Just for giggles.... Not labor or hiring anyone
Yea that's way to go thxs anyway looks Good land plus a shack golden screw a house payment... Have to sit down n do some math myself know u can't say but yea Looks nice

I like how you prefab everything possible in your shop ahead of time, even made your own trusses.
Thanks
Sweet apartment. That’s going to be a cozy space.
Thanks

The older guy is worth every penny you are paying him
Haha. My son does a lot of off camera behind the scenes stuff that he doesn’t get credit for.
Nice work & old school was making it look easier than it actually is.
Wow, you boys got that up PDQ! Nice job too. That'll make a nice little apartment or guest house for someone!
Thanks
man you guys make it look so simple, great work! and damn id love something like that just a bit bigger
Nice
Watching this reminds me of working with my grand pa. We built two gambrel roofed style barns. Great job and Thank you for the memories.
When I was framing we would sheet the outside walls before standing them up - faster easier ...
Thanks true. A couple things for me. 1. The weight...I don’t have the same muscles from 20 years ago. :). 2. Sometimes there’s a slight variation in the concrete so the sheathed wall doesn’t sit flat.
I must say it was quite enjoyable and somewhat relaxing watching it all come together. Great Job!
Thanks
I used to sell Tuff Shed's, this was very enjoyable watching this. I am ready to move in.
Haha nice
So beautiful Ken🤗 U just keep producing Gods shelters beautiful plane and simply Gorgeous U are Gods Carpenter 👍🏽
Wow! Thank you
I would be proud to own that. And it would be my tiny home. Great job!
Thanks

Really efficient and smart work. I enjoy watching good carpenters at work.
Thanks
Very nice. Like the way you work and the finished product first class!
Thanks
Nice recap on the build Ken, turned out great.
Thanks
My wife and I are looking to build something of that nature. Your video is very well done thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching
i was looking for a good video like this for a while now . Really great solution for a living space with a big garage. Great work !
Nice
Morning. This is a nice garage with efficiency apartment above. Lots of light as well. Won’t feel closed in. Thanks for my daily dose. Enjoy your coffee.
Good morning. In the shop now sipping coffee as well. Have a nice weekend
Keep them coming Ken. Hello and best wishes from Richmond, VA
Thanks for watching. Hey I’ve been to Richmond before.

Love there’s no waste on a 4x8 sheet with a little math and thinking ahead!
Yes definitely
This is great!! But I'd love to see it done inside... Thinking of adding a garage with an apartment for my Mother above it. Thanks for sharing, I'll take a look at your other videos. ps... Many of us are contemplating the same idea for our parents if you could keep us in mind as you build more.
Thanks
You get the distinct impression that those guys have worked together before.
Thanks
I would love to be able to work on a crew with a guy like you learning all the finer points of the trade.
Thanks
@@kenskarpentry I would love to built with same layout. How hard it is to get prints for this kinda building? Thank you!
I respect the fact that u share the price. Well done.
Thanks
Nice work Ken, looks ike you do fine work! I'm a finish carpenter in Ct. Nobody does good square work anymore. It's a lost art now.
Thanks
Nice to see this part of the build. Cool video and it looks like a good business you have there
The very last thing you should do is put the railing on the stairs, you will need every inch of clearance to get appliances and furniture up that staircase.

Thanks for watching. I’ll try to work my trailer into a video
I want to see what it looks like when it's totally completed.
Excellent job. You guys have it down to a science, thanks for posting..
Thanks

You guys are fast! I’ve seen people take over a year to build the same thing!
Thanks
People worry about the silliest things. If they are going to break in, they are going to break in. The best way to go? Through the wall with a sawsall.
Haha. Cordless?
Exciting to build new places . I can almost smell the wood
Thanks
It's a time capsule great video remember when OSB was $8 a sheet !
Yes for sure
You should have put some insulation between wooden planks and concrete foundation. Concrete is cold and on warm air will create humidity which will be accumulated by wood.
We staple sill seal to the pressure treated bottom plate before we tip it up.
you can tell these guys have done this before, nice work
Thanks
6:00 2 young guys on 1 side. 1 older guy on the other. “No problem”. says the older guy. I wish I could be in that great of shape when i get his age.
Haha
This is terrific and even come with little extra bonus small department
I’d like to see a similar building built with Zip-Sheath product and maybe hardyboard siding vs. vinyl. Obviously, I’d like to see how it was finished. Insulation, plumbing, finish carpentry on the stairs. Very nice job.

Bummer thanks
Fantastic. I love how quickly things came together having done most of your framing beforehand.
Thanks
Very nice. I live in tornado country and do not know if the attachment of the walls to the foundation will pass around here. But, if not, they can be modified. Nice vid and nice job.
I always enjoy your video's. Good job boy!
That really looks nice !! Awesome job !!
Thanks

Awesome work... Fine craftmanship
Thanks
Not your typical barn style but one with style
Thanks
seal up those garage doors, no gaps greater then 1/4" keep out the rodents, your friendly exterminator.
Nice build. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks
Great job and inspiring. Looking to do something similar here in LA county, CA.
Oh nice
I can't understand the thumbs down on any of your video's. Great work!
Thanks for watching
it looks beautiful, great work.
Thank you very much!
This is awesome. Love the budget too!
Thanks for watching
Loved this video and build, would like to have something like this in the UK.
It makes a nice cottage
@@kenskarpentry Definitely
Man I wish I could hire you, you and your team are fantastic.
Thanks
excellent video, well made and narrated, beautiful job and smooth build. new sub
Thanks for watching
This would be my permanent home.
Nice getaway cottage.
Nice build , A team that has obviously worked together awhile, If this was going to be my place I think I would opt for outside stairs to entry off the back deck and do away with the loss of floor space in the garage..Just me
Love this space, I'd love to build something similar!
If 2x6 you could have used 24" on center and saved some cash, not to mention it allows better insulating.
These guys are obviously professionals.
Thanks
Great video thanks ken stay safe 👍🏻
Thanks you too
Nice Job, great project and video!
Thanks
Love the scenery
Thanks
thtas os pretty and gorgeouss! loving the roof design too!
Thanks for watching
Definitely worth investing in . Could make 500$ in cash flow out here in Sacramento ca. Renting it out
Yes definitely
Nice spacious garage with living space. Looks like the headroom on the landing is a bit tight .
Liked and subscribed......You do some really nice builds. Ray H ( From England U.K. )
Thanks
You're going to jinx yourself with being able to start that machine.
Haha
I love that ladder hoist, it's money!
Thanks
Great video and awesome commentary.
I believe some people could use this video for ASMR.
Thanks. Maybe. I never thought of it as that
That is some is beautiful country!
Yes it is.
Lovely looking building mate.
Thanks
Man when I get ready to build one I want you guys to do it! 👍
Awesome work but no tie off?? You make it look easy for your age hats off to u!
What do you think the garage would cost in today's materials prices?
I am still waiting for that $8 OSB sheet season to kick in. The good old days 😔
Yes. Me too
What a ruff estimate for foundation plus lumber/materials to pull off something like this. Fully done plumbing electrically etc if you know off top. Just for giggles.... Not labor or hiring anyone
That would take quite a while to figure. Sorry
Yea that's way to go thxs anyway looks Good land plus a shack golden screw a house payment... Have to sit down n do some math myself know u can't say but yea Looks nice
Well done build and video 👍👍
Thanks
i dont get the 296 thumps down you do really good work. thanks
Thanks for watching
40k including the foundation?
Nice job. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching.
I like the background music and I also like the electric ladder.
Thanks
Great work and videos, I wish you worked near me. Thank you.
Thanks. :)
I noticed you didn't wrap the second floor on one side, mind letting me know why that wasn't done? Btw amazing build. Looks great. Real quick and nice
We eventually wrapped it. Thanks for watching
You would have to double or even triple the price here in Ca. Nice job.
Wow
Beatifully done.
This channel is amazing 👏
Thanks for watching
You did a great job
Thanks for watching
