I had six weeks to start my pole house, rained out seven days, lumber yard forgot me can't get a delivery for three day's, the truss builder moved me out until the middle of November by that time we will have four feet of snow.
Trying to get some help from all those that I have helped for years.
Still homeless.
I learned a lot from your videos, thank you
Nice job, and nice family. It's good to see the kids involved.
While I'm obviously not a big fan of your "Crane", I do applaud your ingenuity. You gotta use what you have. Nice project. Can't wait to see the finished barn.
Haha thank you
It be like that out here In the country
Amazing work!!! I am excited to see this project through to the end. :)
Thank you!
Nice job and your going to have some handy space with that new building. One nit pick however string lines no matter how tight always sag,the bigger the span the more sag there is. Maybe a datum mark on each post with a laser level etc then measure up from that datum point to get the exact measurements needed .
Yes sir Thanks for the tips!
You should never pour concrete around the poles, it promotes rot. Just 8" of concrete in the bottom for a footer. And, that way you can still adjust the bottom of the posts during building if need be. Then backfill with gravel to keep water off of the post bases.
It's a telephone pole they won't rot until everyone he knows is dead and gone. Plus it'll be inside it'll be 3 generations until it's gone. Plus the outside facing poles he did what you just said to do
@@Crodgers88 you don't know that, they're used poles, who knows how "treated" they are now. So, I'm correct about the outside posts but not the inside? Not to mention, you have no idea how wet that ground is. Shut up.
Gotta love creosote.
Watch the first video. He used saddles for the posts. Also the telephone pole will never rot. My tradesman timber frame has telephone poles in it that my great grandfather put down straight in dirt in the 1950s and it still survives every tornado here in the Midwest.
So nice to see so much progress! I'm still waiting on my builder to install the piers, hopefully we can do them this week.
Thank you!
Team work= Success. Job well done
Yes it does thank you
Nice channel. I'm glad it was on the home page this morning.
Welcome aboard and thank you
Muckin' Mud. Part O' Life. But sometimes... I'll tell you what. Thanks for the vid! Fun to watch
It's coming along great decision on hiring a second set of hands y'all are very efficient look forward to the coming video's I'll spread your podcast with all the other construction related creators i watch hope it helps you grow
Thanks so much for the support
That was very clever!
Thanks!
Great video!
Thanks for the support
Power co gave me 50 old power poles and I used them for fence posts. They were hell on a chain saw though. Went through 2 chains. Lol
Yep there great
Palm hammer for the rafter ties.
Прекрасная работа посмотрел с удовольствием Середины столбы чем обработаны!?
Great job and thanks for the details on important issues. I’m just in planning stages now and struggling to find prints for barns that are your barn styles. Is that monitor style barn? Where did you find your prints?
Are you a construction worker by trade??? You definitely know what your doing😊 ❤ i know this is a project channel, but can you show your. Horses.????
Careful with that Bosch level. I used one building my shop and it doesn't always self level. I had to tap it more than a few times to get it to level
Man I’m always so terrified of that! I actually reset it 3-4 times and made sure we had the same line lol.
everybody needs a pole barn even though they are cheesy
Yes they do
Like yur tractor boom. I did same with a backhoe and a bolted beam on the bucket.
Would you happen to have a materials list? Awesome build!
Good work with the chainsaw 👍🏻.
Thanks man!
Am inspired bye your injunctive thought coming up with that boom lift and not letting anything stop u great job and god bless u and your family and all your viewers
Looks good Mike, making some headway now, listen to the wife! And don't forget to tell her, you were right honey, happy wife happy life!
Thank you and I sure will
What grapple bucket do you have?
For the joist hangers…next time get yourself a palm nailer. It’ll change your life
They make a cordless palm nailer or pneumatic, good for joist hangers and teco nails
I’ve seen those I bet they work great
Won’t the timber rot being in the dirt with direct contact to concrete? Is there a better way to protect it or will that last long enough
@timothywells457 it is only meant to last long enough for them to sell to someone else.
What were the dimensions of your canter part of your barn?
Any suggestions what I should wrap my bases with before I install my poles. Please. Serious. Asking for myself. I'll make a video
Not only are they different size and taper, telephone poles each have a different bow to them
Yes they do a little tricky but I think we got it figured out.
And they SUCK to cut...everything tries to bind up in them...saws, drills...everything! You all did great with them, especially up in the air like that!
@@jasonl1822 thanks yes had to sharpen the saw several times. They’ll eat up a chain
I was a commercial framer for years. After stumbling across your video I kinda miss it. I tried nailing the hangers before setting beams as it’s on the ground. Easier and faster. But hey, either way works. What part of the country are you in?
never thought about nailing them while on the ground super good tip! Were in North Georgia. If I had to do another trade I'd like to be a framer also. Outside, smell of fresh wood, working with the crew, I really enjoyed this build
SURE WISH YOU POURED A PAD FOR THE POLES. ANYWAYS ...........COOL
I put 6” concrete cookies
In the holes before the poles
Point load for poles like yours minimally need 24”x24”x24” concrete footing.
So the posts are just set in the dirt and then put concrete around it? How long do they last before they rot out? Once they rot how do you fit it? We are thinking of building pole barn but would always use concrete piers- but I was wondering how long the posts would last if you set them in the dirt.
The post sit on packed gravel in the hole then concrete poured in. Keep in mind there covered by a roof so without water/ moisture exposure they’ll last forever really with insect prevention
@@ProjectDadLife Thanks for your reply. You are right with the roof on there is no water coming from above. However there is moisture in the soil. Concrete will soak up the moisture and the wood will be sitting in the moisture and will eventually rot. The question is how long will that take? Would be good to see old structures build that way and somebody that took it apart (mind you that they used old growth lumber so something to consider as well.. the modern fast growing stuff wont last nearly as long unless pressure treated).
Very true! I have personally seen 100+ year old pole barn built this way and the interior or covered post where still in decent shape. As long as you keep an eye on your roof run off and possible standing water I think 60+ years easily
@fabiancanada8876 you called it correctly there is not one pole here only posts.
When your budget is fifty thousand that's not a problem .
Actually it was 12k
Very nice build! My wife and I are looking to do the same kind of build. Just curious, do you happen to know the dimensions of the barn and lean-toos? Great craftsmanship!
That’s awesome to hear hope everything goes smooth. Ours is 40x48 15.5’ center width with 12’ sides
@@ProjectDadLife Thank you very much!
On your double 10" headers, why didn't you put some osb between the boards? I've seen this done several times, just curious why they do it and why you didn't? Not knocking, just curious.
That is usually done to make the header the same width as the wall. On a 2x6 wall you are 5.5" thick. Two 10x's would be 5"thick, add 1/2"OSB and then your header is flush on the interior and exterior for finishing.
In the Ag sector,
there's no such thing as OSHA,
only, oh-shhht.
lol.
But all is well in good hands.
Looking great so far so good!
Lol true. Thanks for the support
Great job man. Love watching your videos. You included your boys which is awesome. God bless brother.
Thank you sir!
My relatives build any pole barn u want people builds poll barn for a temporary house then bulld there house they use the kits cheapest this includes metal concrete floor wiring come to Oklahoma they build u anything u want on a budget poor people in Oklahoma to
I am impressed! is this in Ohio?
Thank you we’re in North Georgia
Hangers not angled isn't a problem
It's all cool man butt I hate screws. All done construction work. Where is the hundreds galvanized 16 penny nails.. entity by 4 and 2 4/6 three hits 20 oz hammer. Back in the early seventies. That wasn't very many screws back today. We had a nail gun. But I could out my all that gun. We had to share a plate to building to the emergency room. With a penny galvanized nails. I could run circles around that gun. Helpful to my pouches.
28 Nails staggered. Dark and couldn't keep up with me.
It was air. May I have brute strength. She got to drag that air hose around a compressor runs out of gas.. Henry's buildings weighed 14 ton. Allwood everything was on a hinge four-way piano hinge. Mud seal Foundation. Wonderful that up February 11th 6 wide 34feet ft.
When we open them up 28 ft wide 34 ft long. Completely sided inside vinyl tile ceiling fiber tile.
Roofing . Laser all classrooms back in the day no wheels at all not a modular trailer.
I took a semi and a special gear to hook onto it. . You split the gear in half 1 Park stays on a truck on the fifth wheel. The other frame goes on the back of the building dual axles 8 wheelers regular semi tires. Two beams going up still there front and back. Jack of the buildings to the height. You stick to screw drip pins in there end of the building 3 ft long from the gear into the building to the front to the back can you get cables 1-in cables link to the building hooks on the back ratchets in the front.
Tighten them down Jack Em Up pull the blocking out. Course all the other block and came out to go with all the way around outside down in the center.
It's like getting a stack of books lining them up and squeezing them together and you can lift them all up at the same time.
So I guess there was a lot of pads have to be filled. Sometimes it's over too high off the ground we had to post them 4 x 6 post 16 + 16 parrot stack 5/8 plywood 2 x 6 in the middle. TECO clips and now the.
Oh yeah we use house check to raise them up. From the back.
5 ft bars. Sometimes I can stand in between both bars Jack one end of by myself. Get it up to height and block it.
Hairstyles one tough long-haired Indian still am and still long-haired. Oh yeah there was like books too had to come out in order to fold these buildings.
So yes I love hammering.
Yeah I'm not as young as I was back then but I can still drive a nail. Good luck and be safe.💪🏽💪🏽
People used to ask me if I lift weights how to say yep hi raised 14 ton buildings. My alarms are still about the same. But my belly isn't.🤙🏾👍🏽🙏🏽😊😎🙋🏽♂️
Northern California.
Left that job and became a truck driver. Hauling Lumber.
Big Timbers 4 X 12 4/16 30 ft long. I went to Southern California. Millions of board feet Lumber all shapes and sizes. Even 2 x 4 12 inches long.
Talk about it paint to strap.
Haha yeah man thank for the support
You do know the post/pole that are placed in ground will rot and then what?
Those poles are treated for ground rot at the bottom. I work for the power company and we find poles in the ground all the time that are 80-100 years old and they aren’t in the dry like these will be.
Those poles are always well treated and will no doubt last longer than the barn
These poles are at least 20 years old I cut 4’ off all of them cause they were way long. They all looked like new pressure treated inside I was impressed
Poles treated with penta are known to cause cancer and birth defect and aren’t suitable for occupied spaces.
I'm assuming by the title, your budget is like 200K!!
Original Budget is 10k
Your post holes dont look very deep ?
There about 3’
Sorry Bud, those are light poles. Ever seen a telephone on a pole?
😂 noted
45 years working for the power company will learn ya.
Your beam spans are highly questionable. In addition, the center section should have been built first.
Should have gotten some Amish , would have been up in a day

Truly informative! I needed a reference that highlighted basic wood frame construction methods & techniques where czcams.com/users/postUgkxYGamVaHfdHiPlAQaLa7zkwR02OKpGYDU were best. I am pleased with the depth and clarity of Ryan’s Shed Plans. It was really convenient to capture!
I’d say metal
Great job and thanks for the details on important issues. I’m just in planning stages now and struggling to find prints for barns that are your barn styles. Is that monitor style barn? Where did you find your prints?

Glad it was helpful! I actually had these custom drawn but still changed it up a bit
