It's amazing how just a little frill " Timber Like Framing " can add so much value relative to the labor and materials . My house was similar from the road .. So I framed a porch , Laid a natural rock skirt , Took 4x6's from Home Depot and scored them with a chipped planer to mimic rough sawn , " You can even do this by dragging a Sawzall at any angle to rough up the wood" Put a hand designed scroll on the overhang . Angled the barge rafter out a few degrees , Installed the king post and made two curved queens , overframed existing roof with typical framing , Roof sheathing was merely 8" oc center T-111 flipped upside down to mimic T&G from below . Stained it all and it looks like a $30,000 timber frame .. Complete project was $1500 in material . Added 20% more value to my house . On the timber rafters . Just spaced them equidistantly and eye pleasingly apart . . Loved it guys .
What a blessing to see these young men I’ve watched grow up doing top notch work! Wish you had time to travel and help me with my build :) Keep it up fellas!
I have seen MANY staples backing out through the shingles, ring shank is the ONLY roof deck fastener that NEVER causes leaks. Most framers never go back to a roof 20-30 years later to see how their work cost the homeowner a TON of money.
@@Coffmanconstruction I have come back after HUNDREDS OF stapled of 2” plus long staples, every one has issues, some in 12-15 years.!!!! There you have..! I did
Last year we did two IKO Dynasty warrantied replacements, 5 year old homes. With Stapled OSB. We did entirely too much nailing from loose staples. There were already leaks from backed out staples, and the shingle layers were glued and not lifted as they are when nails or staples are sticking out from new. Galvanized Ring shanks will hold it people. The fact that you are basically required to double nail when you staple says ALOT.
Nice work! Amazes me you guys can do a job without a safety guy telling you to put on a harness, where’s your boots, put your shirt on! I want to work with you guys! Just a bunch of guys getting it done
please post a video showing rest of the completed work. also good at end of video to spend a minute panning over all work top to bottom and left to right to get a nice slow overview with zoom in shots to show joints & fasteners.
@@Coffmanconstruction will definitely contact you guys when we are ready. Looking to do a new front entrance and add an attached garage onto our existing house.
How do you like those Matabo hammer drills? I use a Makita but I am seeing more and more of the Matabo’s ! Great video for new young framers to digest ! Thk u
stapels are madstrong! Did try to remove a sheet that needed to go, and it was nothing left of it, the stapels tho, they stayed. with a little pice of the sheet left in it.
@@Coffmanconstruction I think what he means is you made it harder by removing it in one big ass chunk. I would have spent an additional 5 to 10 minutes and cut it into smaller pieces so I could toss them down easily. I wouldn't consider that wasted time if it makes things easier on me physically. Additionally it's not that it took you a massive amount of extra time how you did it, just more effort and it also "could" have caused damage or injury if something went wrong. Doesn't matter now, what's done is done, I would say maybe think about that in your future endeavors. Always do things in manner that saves your body wear and tear, since in our vocation, your body is literally the money maker. God job bud, keep at it
First off, I dig the name lol Yea they’re definitely heavier than the badgers, I have a new custom layout set of badgers coming soon and it’s a more similar layout to the occies that I’m really excited for
This project was an engineer I’ve never worked with before, cool guy for sure, might be Russian? We tend to work with different engineers on different projects
I’d love to see the business side of your business man, do you use any software to help with showing clients what they’re getting? You do some nice work brother!
Let me just say, and these are just my opinions. The post are the wrong scale, especially compared to that massive cross member. And the roof pitch doesn’t come even close to matching it’s neighboring gable or the houses roof pitch. So now it’s a suburban ranch style home with an entrance that looks like it should be on a mountain style log cabin. Did anyone consider the aesthetics? One last thing, if I was to insist on it. I would have lowered it so the facia died into the walls not the roof, that would have at least lowered the roof peak and made the entrance more intimate, and look less just stuck on.
They wanted a grand entrance! We had to raise the roof because otherwise they couldn’t fit the door that want, the original soffit is only 7’ off the ground, which may feel intimate, or in my opinion, crowded, the existing 4/12 pitch on a 9’ wide porch would honestly look rather pathetic to me in my opinion, even at a 12/12 we got 54” of rise, and that would have been cut into a third, at 18” if we matched the pitch, making the entire timber point practically useless. So I do agree with you in the sense that matching the pitch would never catch someone’s eye. But thankfully our goal was to catch the eye and be a main focus to this otherwise boring house (compared to the neighborhood at least) Either way I always appreciate any and all opinions🤘🏼
Almost perfect video, match the music volume to your mic volume and we will be good, holy shit a big difference, music is way too loud in comparison. People in my office are raising awareness :)
@@Coffmanconstruction haha. I struggled with that for years! I was stcu k at 121 pounds till I hit age 24 then suddenly i gained a bunch. I sit now at 185. It will happen just matter of time and eat a bunch before bed lol.
Nice work guys. This country needs more skilled Craftsmen in the Building Trades. Keep up the Good Work. Your team is an Inspiration!

Nice job clean and good work
Real nice work Gerrard! 10/10
Love what you guys do
I am a timber framer in SW Colo and that is nicely done for using fasteners.
Nice job mate, as always showcasing your talent as a chippy. Also that is a nice little detail to the entry of the home now.
Nice job guy's.
I've always used staples on walls and decking. It's very hard to take a big hammer and blow a stapled sheet off, very easily when installed with nails
That belt setup looking good man!!
That's awesome!
Love your work Ron woodruff

Come back to this comment in 30 years and I’ll check for you 👌
@@Coffmanconstruction I have come back after HUNDREDS OF stapled of 2” plus long staples, every one has issues, some in 12-15 years.!!!! There you have..! I did
The newer staples come with a coating that makes them stick, I wonder if the old ones had that too
Some of both.

Great looking work. Would love to do something similar on my house here in Denver to add some curb appeal.
We’d love to help you out if you’re interested!
@@Coffmanconstruction will definitely contact you guys when we are ready. Looking to do a new front entrance and add an attached garage onto our existing house.
Which go pro do you use for POV? Also which mount would you recommend be best, chest or head mount?
How do you like those Matabo hammer drills? I use a Makita but I am seeing more and more of the Matabo’s ! Great video for new young framers to digest ! Thk u
It’s been great! Nothing special compared to others but it works for sure
stapels are madstrong!
Did try to remove a sheet that needed to go, and it was nothing left of it, the stapels tho, they stayed. with a little pice of the sheet left in it.
I would definitely hire you guys to do my entrance! Too bad I’m in Phelan California 😢
Definitely working harder not smarter on the roof demo. Just like typical framers
How long would this take you with two helpers?

its a good idea to wear a mask during demo to prevent inhaling toxic particulate matter
It sure is
get those badgers back on brother!! nice vid
Just know those heavy ass leather bags were killing you the first day so you switched 😂 i know they would of killed me
First off, I dig the name lol
Yea they’re definitely heavier than the badgers, I have a new custom layout set of badgers coming soon and it’s a more similar layout to the occies that I’m really excited for
Very cool and good looking project
Who does the Engineering on your projects ?
How much value would a change like this add to a home ball park ?
This project was an engineer I’ve never worked with before, cool guy for sure, might be Russian? We tend to work with different engineers on different projects
Yes,it's out of scale in reference to the size of the house, it's neat but oversized
You have a great builders mind and instinct. I don’t like staples however.
Great video. I miss seeing that ridiculously handsome bald guy in your videos. Jason Statham vibes.
Yea he is helping his girlfriend work on a cabin so he is off for a few days, sorry!
@@Coffmanconstruction 🥲
I’d love to see the business side of your business man, do you use any software to help with showing clients what they’re getting? You do some nice work brother!
Is that an Occidental side holder for your hammer? Never seen it before.
Just released!
You ever try any of the Akribis tool belts?
Not yet!
Nice work but I liked old look better. The entrance porch is 12/12 pitch and garage gable is like 5/12. Doesn’t look right.
Staples are lame but... meeting code is meeting code fellas.
👍👍
I imagine a home ballpark would be very expensive, although it doesn't look like there is enough room for the outfield.
Josh could have taken down the light fixture first so that there is not broken glass all over the place.Otherwise great looking job.
My thoughts exactly as soon as I heard the glass shatter… live and learn I guess!
For those that think staples are sub par try taking one apart 🥴
How much does a job like this cost? Material and labor?
Between 10-20k depending on the size most likely!
How are you liking the new Occidental hammer holster? 👀
It’s awesome!
@@Coffmanconstruction I got the Diamondback holster last week and my Stiletto hammer grip gets stuck and doesn’t slide easily
I sanded my stiletto grip a little bit and put electrical tape on the end, slides wayyy better
@@Coffmanconstruction I just did that and it does, Thanks!
What does a job like this typically cost?
Whats up with the paslode pneumatic
New partnership! I’m really happy with them so far
@@Coffmanconstruction i was thinkin that.
What happened to the badgers???
Why do you change your tool belt now and then?
ADHD 😂
“And made fun of Connor” 😂
Connor is gay
3 days?
Well, three half days, 1-1/2 if you count the actual hours
How much does something like this cost?
I’m 15 but I feel I don’t got the brain for math will that effect me if I try framing or any construction work ?? Need your help boss
The math comes later! Just get a feel for the basics! I didn’t start to get the grasp of math in construction till I was about 17-18
How much did you charge ?
This was done for ourselves on a flip project, so only the total cost, so approximately $5000
another set of bags??
I’ve got a custom set of badgers with a new layout coming soon!
Would love to see a video on your load out of the Occidental’s. Also of your newest set of Badgers.
@@Coffmanconstruction I really enjoy the tool belt videos. great content man
Count me in!
Did you guys ever consider asbestos?
Ahh the smell of asbestos in the morning 🤤

@@Coffmanconstruction Regardless of my aesthetic opinions. I should say I think you guys do great work.
I appreciate it! Thanks for watching! I always say they pay me to build it not design it 😂
How heavy are those cordless worm drive saws in comparison to a corded worm drive?
No hardware post to beam?

IT IS. NICE
NEED S TO BE WIDER AND. LONG ER !
Very nice construction, but it does not match the style of the house. It looks to bulky and massive for the ranch style house.
Nice work. You guys need to eat more. Put some weight on.
I’m trying I swear 😂
