WILL IT PAY OFF?! ATV PLOW PURCHASED & BARN LOFT COMPLETE!
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 09. 2024
- Today, we're sharing a quick update on the new Boss ATV snow plow that we just picked up and the loft for the barn, which the guys recently framed.
There's still a lot of work to be completed for the barn build, but it's getting there day by day. We also added the new Boss ATV plow to better service a few of our clients with large sections of sidewalks to be plowed.

Brian,
I built my shop 7 years ago which is a 40x60x12. 2 tone with spray foam insulation, concrete floor throughout, all in 30k. When i checked with morton, they wanted over 80k for the same size, building less insulation. They are good but very expensive in general. Even when i used to work for and help build these buildings back in the late 80's early 90's morton was still expensive. It can be done or used to be able to be done pre covid.
Sure, but I promise you the build quality is not the same. The materials involved are entirely different. And that’s the difference.
I built my shop in December of 2018 - 30x40x12, with concrete (10x10 section was 6" all other 4"), vinyl siding, dimensional shingles, with 2 10'x10' doors and one-man door. Nothing crazy and I finished the interior with plywood and sheet rock with r-18 insulation in the walls and blow in in the ceiling. All in, I was just shy of 30K. It just depends on your options and who you go with!
Congratulations on your new place you deserve it. I like to keep home and employees separate it only takes one mess up everything
One tip. Don’t drywall the bathroom it’s gonna get wet and disgusting in a shop. Just run the metal on the walls in there
Good idea!
FRP ITS SUPER EASY TO CLEAN
In commercial, restrooms need a washable surface on the wet walls to 48”. This is usually accomplished by tile or FRP.
FRP is the way to go for the bathroom. You won’t regret it.
I did a boss plow on my buddy's 570. We ended up installing stiffer springs in the front. Solved the clearance issues with the ground quick
You should do a nice Stone pillar with your mailbox inserted. It'll be nice looking with no issues.
From hooligans
Happy New Year everyone! ❤
Love the shop brother! Love the loft too!
Thanks bro!
I’ve been watching your videos since you were solo… I’m super bumped for you and Liz. You’ve been dreaming about a pole barn for years and it’s finally happening.
Thanks brother!
Yeah I know what you mean, we only had one 1.5 inch snow, this year, so I went and did the commercial lots, but no residential driveways.
After living in an apartment and working out of a storage unit, this is going to be awesome! Congratulations Brian.
Yes! Thank you!
I didn’t know BOSS made plows for an ATV. That set up is so much better than the winch style. Nice looking set up. Looking forward to seeing how it performs when the snow finally shows up.
Appreciate your honesty man the truth when I ask some people never get the real numbers the run around
Looking great. That “dead” area at the stairway might be a good location for a medium sized vertical air compressor. Just make sure it has some ventilation if you box it in with a wall structure. We have had the same crappy weather up north also. I can relate to buying snow equipment while it’s raining. I had to update a couple of my snow blowers and haven’t used either of them more than 1 time. Hopefully we get some snow pretty soon. God bless!
Thanks man great ideas! I’m trying to not have air in the shop. Everything we use is battery hand tools these days, drills, impacts, etc. still debating air!
@@BriansLawnMaintenance I’m pretty much at the same point but find that a shop compressor still is the best for filling large tires especially ones that run at high psi ratings. I also do a fair amount of vehicle repair and running an air chisel is a necessity for suspension work.
@@BriansLawnMaintenance Got to have air !!!!!!!
My boy JIMMY T!! I have same set up, 3-4 yrs older. 1st thing we did was change those front shocks and move controller closer to thumb. Overall good setup, machine will get trashed from salt FYI. Still better than my 2 snowrators for them big runs
You might want some chains for the rear tires because it’s so lite in the back
This is awesome! Fun to see the progress. I know the feeling of having stuff all over. Finally got all my tools and shop setup at my apartment and working towards a house for my family. When met my girlfriend i used to travel 2 hours each way twice a week for the first 2 years of dating.
Amen brother
I built my 42'x64' pole barn in 2020 for 26k. No concrete 10x12 roll up on the back and a 14x14 roll up on the front. SE Michigan
Yea hes paying more for the “Morton Company” name more than anything
That’s a pretty ignorant comment bud. There’s a reason they’re #1 in pole barns. The build quality and materials are second to none. I’m sure you pay for the name like CAT, Deere, and the rest, right.
Id go with pvc wall, ceiling paneling in bathroom. Its used in milk houses since its very easy to clean. Also if a panel breaks its very easy yo replace.
It’s been a slow start to the snow year for me too haven’t had a single inch of snow yet. But potentially a winter storm Sunday there saying. 🤞🏼
Maryland or Pennsylvania?
The hd springs are worth the money for the sportsman, especially help with wet snow sticking onto the plow.
That’s good feedback Ty!
Hi Brian, I just wanted to let you know about something to check out on lights for your shop. Bob Villa..The best LED shop lights of 2023. I hope it will help on a decision. NICE SHOP!
Thank you!
Hey Brian, on the tractor I would recommend checking out a ventrac 4520 with the front loader on it, because you could change the deck to a tough cut flail mower, and even a 72” finish mower plus you could get duals for handling slopes better, they also offer a heated cab that you could buy separately
Those are cool no doubt about it man
Polaris does have spring spacers that will do the same thing. They sold them to me when I bought the plow for my old Sportsman 450.
This is exciting! Life outta be easier getting out of the storage lockers. We're builder the same size shop soon. Getting a visual on the size has been great.
It's amazing how single live vs family
Hey Brian, I’m up in Maine, our local lumber yard has garage packages all materials included 24x36 with living space above, with concrete concrete pad, $32,000. That’s building it yourself. From comment at 5:20. Obviously with paying someone it would be atleast double, then cost of electrical, plumbing, insulation, etc. But in my area, yes, you can get a garage on a slab for ruffly 30,000 building it yourself.
That’s wild.
one thing i found out is Morton is the most expensive when it comes to pole barns! i built a 30x40x10 in 2019 and it was 34k just for the shell. they wanted another 30k to insulate and finish the inside. had a buddy have amish build his a yr later. 30x50x12 and they only charged 17k for the shell. we love our Morton building, but they're definitely not cheap!
They (Polaris) have heavier springs which I put on mine and it made a ton of difference. Easy to install and zero sag now
That’s what’s up.
I suggest getting hand grip warmers!
Already have them, I’m a softy lol
Congratz! Looks nice. I had the same setup. Its great for speed and doing light snowfalls, but not great with heavy snow. Had to constantly lean forward on the bars to keep the plow down and help with steering. It was a nice toy/writeoff but we sold it for a JD 1025 with a heated cab with blower in the front. Had the loader for landscape/mulch work (but no A/C in cab). Its been a far better business investment. Might be a good alternative for you and your business and property.
Thanks man great feedback
I'm not going to lie I've smoked mail boxes in my younger days. I move away from my home town and within the first couple months of being a home owner my mail box got smoked. I walked outside and saw it and just laughed. I couldn't even be mad 😂
5:38 yes this is very true. A friend of mine got one built with no concrete slab though. Its like a 40 by 30 for under 20k. A Hispanic crew from Indiana came to ohio to build it and they was done start to finish in 3 days.
Man I wish. That’s awesome tho!
Congratulations brother! Looking sweet so far!
That’s gonna be a beautiful setup man can’t wait to see the end!!!
I’m so happy for you Brian! Keep it up bro
Thank you! Will do!
Brian, thanks for sharing the update with us. It looks so huge, even with all the building going on. Things are moving along nicely,& I hope it continues to do so. Happy New Year to all the Fullerton’s!! ‘2024🥳💜🎆🎉🥂🎇🎊🫶🏾🍾
You as well!! ❤️❤️
A lot of comments talking about barn/garage prices
Just know the 30k/50k all your buddies brothers cousins just had built was not finished like this
Yes you can get these for under 50k but thats a pretty bare bones barn. Not finished with everything done and turn key
True that.
Looking Great!!
Happy New Year! The place is looking great. Keep up the good work. We had someone drive over our mailbox one time, destroyed it all.
You too! And not cool!
Happy New Year's. Looks great 👍, nice work.
Looking good 👍
Happy new year merry Christmas to you, Brian I’ve been watching you for a while on CZcams buddy ever since you had that old F150 you were doing well for yourself. I’m very happy for you and your life buddy.
Hey thanks man. It’s been a wild journey!
Raise the truck hitch to lessen the tailgate slope
Sweet set up you should look up loft elevators on CZcams and have them put one in for you my brother has one in his barndomenium and that thing is awesome.
Might be over I’ll for what we’re building :)
@BriansLawnMaintenance there pretty inexpensive and very helpful for the heavier items that need to go in the loft.
You can totally build one for less than 100k. I know ppl that have build them for $40k or so depending size. Different area but still. Shouldn’t be close to 100k. You could have cut a lot of cost by not having the siding continue to the inside and just leaving beams exposed. Most are building shops out of steal beams and no finish inside. The metal from outside would be seen inside as well.
Right exactly, so apples to apples that wouldn’t be $100k. And what most people claim is $50k for some basic little stick frame shop, completely unfinished.
@BriansLawnMaintenance most people don't understand that the "shell" is the cheapest part of a barn.
Put the hd springs on after awhile springs will settle and get worse get the springs younwont reget it
Lookin good.I’d get after your general contractor about getting more stone on that driveway. So the mud isn’t being tracked in everywhere.Since Morton knew about the loft why didn’t they leave the tin off. Maybe it’s me but they seem to be getting you to pay for stuff twice.
They were honestly supposed to add the headers. We’re working that out now, I agree.
And yes more stone soon.
Happy New Year
Check out a spreader for the quad that will work also
Might get one sooner than later
@@BriansLawnMaintenance had a spreader on my quad held 100lbs of material adjustments from one foot to twelve feet spread width
You may want to put pallet racking on the other side of the shop (which looks great by the way). I don't know the size you are getting or the stand off distance from wall by I could see the windows being smashed pretty easily by loading something a little too far.
Yeah good call. I think we’ll be fine since the racking will be 48” deep. Not a bad thought tho.
Spray paint under loft ceiling white or put metal up
Yes agreed.
Shop is gonna be SUPER DOPE!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not lose the plans. Frame those bad boyees & hang in the shop. Now, here's some more unsolicited advice & given with the best intentions. Leave the springs alone on the 570. It will ride rough without the plow on it if you upgrade. Just have your guys be mindful. Knowing you, you'll be upgrading to some sort of sidewalk machine soon enough. Put a piece of 2x6 under the gate whan lowered & it will ease the angle when loading & unloading. Plus your idea for back weight will help too. Frame the space out above the stairs to loft making an opening towards the stairs so when ppl. are coming down the stairs you can something corny/cool/weird displayed there. Something that wouldn't go anywhere else but, that isolated display area. It's coming together as it should, BLESSINGS to you guys for 2024, Dirty Jersey out!!
GREAT suggestions bro! As always! ❤️
Did you go with the poly or steel plow for your ATV and why?
Looks awesome
Above the staircase in that weird "unusable" space, could you put a mini fridge or small deep freezer for snacks?
That’s a really cool idea.
How long have you had the open trailer first time seeing you use that trailer
Like 3 years lol. We use it all the time 😎
Awesome!
Ya what’s with the snow does everyone think there’s gonna be a crazy storm coming??
Could always cement the inside of your mailbox, and leave a hole for mail especially if it's a metal mailbox hahaha that will teach those clowns not to mess with ya 😂
Talked to my builder about that, apparently it’s illegal to do so in most townships now. Liability bs.
@@BriansLawnMaintenance well that's a joke ....that sucks about the whole ordeal
Looks great. Quick question, where are you parking the trailers?
Storage lockers for now still.
Curious if you have seen any drop in building material prices compared to 1-2 years ago?
No
Figured that was the case, oh well@@BriansLawnMaintenance
Hang a big TV in the dead space over the stairs for gaming and sports
Happy New Year Brian, it is going to be nice to have stuff in one place eventually instead of all over. Hopefully they catch the mailbox smasher!
Hey thanks man!
Any idea when the LAL recordings will come out?
First part of Feb!
When are you doing a price breakdown of the shop?
Soon! Waiting to finish up with cabinets and pallet racking.
perfect for side walks, 850 CC or better is what ive always been told for plowing
True that
Granted yes you can’t build a barn for that 31000 but could be cheaper if you buy lumber and materials from the Amish I have found
Even though the ATV goes faster, would you prefer to have a MAG? or stick with the ATV even though it can't salt. Been trying to figure out which one to get for my business.
One day an SR Mag yessir
With all that property, you can use that as a toy in the summer.
You know it 😎
looks like the 4in straight? i have the 5'6" v on my atv and it barely fits on my 5x8 trailer. i also use 3 bags of sand in the back for traction and it does balance out the machine. i do have the 850 didn't change shocks.
I think it’s the 4’ one yeah, I can’t even remember. I wanted the smaller version for narrower walks.
makes sense. i got the vplow to do my older neighbor's driveways i can make quick work and make tight turns.@@BriansLawnMaintenance
I love your vidos😊❤
Thank you ❤️
why dont you turn the little bit of dead space that you have into the utility closet for the building with the electrical panel in it etc.
Electrical panel had to be up front with where we ran the line. But those are good ideas!
Brian what are the dimensions of your barn esp thenheight of it? Looking to do a barndominium and trying to figure out how tall I need it to make a second floor
40x60, 14’ high. Brando do 18-20 if you can.
Buddy of mine just had a 30x40 barn for under 30k its possible lol
Just put taller tires on your done
40k for materials sounds about right for a 30x40. Not everyone has to hire everything out.
Hey! What program do you use to edit and put together your youtube videos? Starting to shoot videos for 2024 and any insight on a good program would be nice. Thanks! :)
Just iMovie and lately Final Cut pro
Cost of a barn depending on the state your in think if your state his high price your barn going to be expensive to build???
Not sure!
do you still have to paint the house with another coat of tan.
It’ll be painted in spring. Unfortunately it got cold quick in November and we missed our window for painting.
@@BriansLawnMaintenance makes total sense. Being from Michigan i thought that was the reason.
Beauties Shop
Build your own mailbox out of brick I promise it will never get hit again with a bat 🤣
Haha once we start landscaping I’m going to get that done.
You need to learn to do somethings yourself. Most contractors charge a lot for labor when it comes to the trades. Personally I would have dug footers for the barn. I am in process of saving to build a large shed/shop it will be heated and cooled. One area will be build as a secured area. I think afterwards I will go to school to be Master Gunsmith.
I’m a landscaping, not a carpenter. Best leave specialties to the designated trade. But you do you.
Should have got a Yamaha, Honda, or Suzuki. Polaris makes a poor quality product.
Hey man are you still going to be buying a new enclosed trailer this year for lawn care
Not sure, we’ll see where funds are at with this lame winter 😀
Polaris quad? Should of got a Honda Polaris has bad reputation for there radiator blowing up n you wont know it happen
Heard everything about every brand ever made mate. I love the Polaris, that’s why 😄
@@BriansLawnMaintenance hopefully you good luck with it the Honda never a issue with it n could push snow n alot of it
Be careful dropping the weights upstairs
We’re going to put some additional plywood down on the weighted section + mats. But the trusses are 12” spaced instead of 16” for that reason. Should be ok!
leaving your plow up all the time is very bad for your truck
You know, it’s funny you say that.
