      I was watching this video trying to work out the logistics of putting up that crane. He still has to spend some money because AFAIK he only has the bridge, end trucks and crane trolly. He needs to obtain (I won't say 'buy' because we know how resourceful he is) the supports and runways. We also know the bridge needs to be shortened, and that's going to be a mission in itself! If it was Andrew Camerata, I'd be worried about it happening without someone get seriously hurt or dead, but I think Matt has a decent safety record.

    • @TrevorDennis100
      @TrevorDennis100 Před rokem +3

      I've remembered a story. We had some adult apprentices come to our main Fleet Workshop for retraining after they'd been made redundant. One of them - who we will call Ernie because that was his name - was walking in the workshop when a large truck came in and gave the overhead crane a hefty whack. The bridge and trolly set off at a fair old lick with the hook block (which was about waist height) heading straight for Ernie. Instead of moving to the side, he set off like a rabbit in the headlights with the hook block bearing down on him, and didn't stop till the bridge reached its end stops. Even then, the hook block still had enough momentum to have a last lunge at him. The truck fitters were too busy rolling on the ground laughing to help poor Ernie, and he never lived it down.
      There was another time, on night shift, when someone slipped the hook under the army webbing belt a fitter called 'Black Jack' wore over his overalls, and winched him off the ground. Jack was a total animal, and no one dared to let him down, so they went to the canteen and left him there. The shop foreman found him and let him down, and the lads kept well out of his way for the rest of that shift.

I built a 40x40 16’ tall and the build took about a year, and getting everything setup inside took almost another year. So worth it in the end, can’t wait to see the rest of the build!

      ...So you have tin, that is screwed and then glued with foam to construction. No under layer to prevent leakage getting further into construction when water gets past the tin and trust me it will. Hell you wont even know about it until its far too late and whole rafter system is ruined. Only option will be to wreck whole building and build new, so that is the great choice? Even if its closed cell it just collects the water around rafters and rots them away quicker by not letting them dry. How about dont build single use building that is next to impossible to renovate? At this point all you can do is essentially ether add the underlayer plastic you forgot to install or just add boards top of existing roof and put another tin top of it.

      i Think that making a condensation / second roof layer
      Can be done without making such big Rework , I agree in your conclusion on the risk of water damaging the top part of the trusses. And the point that renovation will be very hard with direct application of foam to tin.
      My suggestion is to but hard massonit /hdf sheets under the boards that the tin
      Is mounted to ,and fasting them to the roof trusses sides , parallel mounted 2"2" bats, one In middle and one directly beside the truss, on both sides . Note that the 2"2" is screwed to the truss not the" tin carrier" except in the middle, this bat can be sawed free from tin carrier in the future with a saw saw,
      And refastned with a longer screw into the tin carrier thru the insulation with a insulation washer to spread the load.
      This construction is
      Forming a ventilation channel between the tin boards and the massoinate/ hdf . The over sides of the roof truss will be ventilated to!
      Then it will be possible to replace the" tin carrier"/the tin in the future. even adding plastic /( if that's needed then ) or water proofing over the truss upper sides . If spray foam is what he wants hi can have it sprayed on the hdf /massonit undersides. They are textured and quite cours ,and will make a good surface for the foam, to stick to.
      I would use the "firmer" mineral wool bats Instead of foam ,and screw them in the 2"2 bats ,thru the wood sheets with metal fasting insulation washers.
      They are impossible to burn they can handle being waterlogged and dry up without collapsing like glass wool does, they dont get moldy they also make a nice sound dampner, think there is a risk that the shop will be quite noisy with all these hard materials.
      Anoder benefit is that the workshop does not need to be masked / protected from spray all over the place when insulating.
      They can be painted if a particular colour is wanted.
      Or be used in there native colour.
      They are also not prown to
      Yellowing / surface degradation, like foam does
      Sorry if the English is not perfect /not my native languish .
      I Hope he reads this ,foam directly on thin is not a good idea. (If you ask me) but its Matt's workshop not mine....

    Consider running an air duct from floor to ceiling. This will give you direct access to the hottest and coldest levels of the shop. Other things can be plumbed into this duct, such as : Air purification, humidification, heat / cooling, exhaust air out, fresh air in. Useful example : Pull hot air from the top of the shop and blow it down to floor level during winter season, while filtering dust and adding humidity at the same time. Flaps can be opened or closed at floor or ceiling level if you wish to only exhaust from one point. Ceiling fans recirculate air nicely, but you cant do all this^ extra stuff with the air.

    A.
    Closed it turns into a heat trap in summer with airflow and moisture build up issues unless addictional in / out airflow equipment is add.
    Adding to final costs.
    B.
    Closing it in also increases cost.
    It does look ok, it isn't an art gallery or Better Homes and Garden stage.

    For those who take on a metal siding project similar to this one, a trick of the trade in handling each piece, is to roll into a circle each piece as you handle it, from where it's laying on the ground (or horse's / work platform,) to where you unroll each piece and install as necessary. You'll find it creates great strength / rigidity, so as to prevent the panel from warping / bending of the individual piece. You will also find a single person can handle a single panel to twenty foot lengths no problem.

That is, if it will work without hitting the surrounds etc. The red will show where the door is ultra easy in a fire, and red is one of the colours that show up in flames. Plus, it will look cool with the high contrast. But then, it is not my shop, so... It looks wonderful; well done for a great video and build; just two men achieving that much in so short a time is miraculous.

I was lucky enough to have great horned owls nesting in there for a couple of years. They still come around but the barn cats make them too nervous to nest there these days.

    And I often use a variation on the response "if you don't like the way I did it, feel free to do it differently when you build yours". Because, yeah, I did it the way I wanted to do it.

    Can't really complain about the footage, this new shop is going to pead to a future of footage for you and the rest of us. I may be speaking for myself but this is just as exciting as watching you restore equipment becaue of what this building will do for you and your needs/future needs. I would rather see you in an organized equipped shop out of the weather than the time it takes you now, this shop will allow you to be more efficient and its convenient for you more so now than your current operation. It's turning out fantastic and its not my shop or project lol.

  • @mackdickson1209

    A suggestion would be to have double outlets installed up top (cable real outlets), that way once you install work benches and overhead cabinets, you can have strip lighting under the cabinets for working at bench.
    Looking great with the walls clad and I agree with previous comments regarding a large Diesel Creek sign, one for the front above doors and also one inside as a backdrop for filming wrenching vids

    Good work takes time, thought and effort. You are probably like me when it comes to building stuff. In your mind you build it and deconstruct it a thousand times before the physical build. That why you know where every stick of wood and nail will go. Love your channel, Matt. You have taught this old dog a few tricks. Cheers from New Brunswick, Canada!

    Walls look great Matt, My shop is spray foamed and walls are white also. Once I had spray foam complete I ended up leaving the ceiling open also, but sprayed everything flat black to cover that ugly yellow tint of the foam. Something to think about and it actually helped brighten the area even more if that makes sense. You can see it in some of my videos I think. Its a very clean look and finishes the upper half very well. Thanks for taking us along on the shop build, doing a great job.

    • @elbertfreeman8124
      @elbertfreeman8124 Před rokem

      Flat black is a bad "BAD" idea! unless you want to dissipate the busy aspect of the rafters crisscrossing in the background of videoing. that said. I have worked in buildings as an HVAC tech. many-many years. Leave the foam insulation as is. Black seems to negate the distraction of busyness in the background, White ceiling with light fixtures BX conduit J boxes, and ductwork is hidden in Black but let someone move or add anything. It's like stars at night! that will really be distracting in the video background. True the overhead crane will be in the foreground. that will be distracting enough! Leave foam as is My experience once painted Black you can't stop touching it up!

    Thanks for sharing this insightful video Matt.
    May I make an off-the-wall suggestion for your on-the-wall electrical outlets. If your Electrician has not suggested it please consider installing a GFI-C (or similar) water sensor breaker in each of the lower duplex outlets. Also Leviton and others offer duplex receptacles with built in USB chargers (Leviton T5632-BW-R02-T5632-0BW CHARGER) not affiliated.! I have found these incredibly handy at the oddest times and locations although workbench is most often used location.
    Wishing you and your family a blessed week, gentle seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings. Greetings from NE Ohio. Peace brother

  • @kameljoe21
    @kameljoe21 Před rokem

    Something I want to point out for people who may want to build or have a pole barn built. More trusses does not mean stronger. If you build a pole barn with 10 foot spacing and you have trusses 10 foot spaced you will have a building the same as a building with 2 foot spacing for the roof trusses. Trusses are built for their application and when you place a truss on top of the pole and the next truss on the next pole you have a load rating for that roof, lets call it 10. Then you place a truss every 2 foot between on the headers now you have a roof with a load rating of 2 per truss over the same span which equals 10. There are builders that will tell you they build using 4 foot truss spacing and 8 foot centers which is fine, yet there are builders who know how to build using longer truss spacing that is far stronger. Sheathing also makes a building stronger. Also roof purling that are laid flat are weaker than purling that are installed vertical. Learn as much as you can before you drop money if you are going to build a home in one of these buildings. I am going with a 10 foot span with 10 foot trusses, vertical purling and full sheathing both inside and outside as well as girts and ceiling boards faced nailed and not shelves as I intend to use blown in celliouse.

  • @ohhpaul7364
    @ohhpaul7364 Před rokem +1

    Looks nice. Be sure to ask the spray foam people what to use so that the foam doesn't fade or yellow on you over time. Some of them can start to look really nasty and you are going to have some diesel particulates hanging out in there that might make it gross looking in short order; ounce of caution, you know.
