- In this video, we are feeling the crunch. We need to complete 5 bents in 4 days. We are continuing to attach brackets, build trusses and then completing the bent. It just takes time. We complete numbers 4, 5 and 6 in this video - so two more to go. We have figured out a much better system than with the first bent, including moving it. Sometimes you have to go through a little trial and error to figure out what works best for you and your projects and that's just what we did. We have a great team and we are working hard to meet our deadline! Super excited to see these go up soon!
We are milling our barndominium - barn house out of wood that we are milling on our own sawmill. If you haven't followed along with our BARN Build, (which is now our barn house build) make sure to check out that series in our playlists. We finished the first slab last summer, we milled most of the timbers needed over this past winter/spring, added plumbing, put in a second slab for our garage and now we have started building our barndominium - barnhouse - lodge - our home.
Here's the video where we share our change in plans and decide to turn our barn into our home:
• EVERYTHING Had To CHAN...
Here is the video where we share our barn plans. Our plans are from @BarnGeek. We are excited to build one of his beautiful barns and turn it into our home:
• Why Do We Think WE CAN...
***We are also so excited to have completed our sawmill cover enclosure (sawmill shed). Definitely check out our Sawmill Playlist to watch it all happen. We have shared the process of building our sawmill cover from the very beginning. We have a Woodland Mills HM130 Max sawmill and we live in North Idaho. The sawmill cover / sawmill shed is vital to continue milling for our barn build in the winter months, but it will also be a great way to keep out of the sun during the summer months, and of course all of the rain, in between!
Here is a link to the video that shares the sawmill cover / sawmill shed build from start to finish:
• Sawmill Cover Build - ...
Here are the specs on the sawmill cover / sawmill shed we built:
3 posts in the front
4 posts in the back
Overall dimensions are 15 feet wide by 36 feet long
Longest beam is 28 feet
Front part of the lean to roof is 11'9" and back is 8'
It will have a 3 :12 pitch
Posts and beams are going to be 7 1/2" x 7 1/2"
We have shared the entire build!

It's Crunch Time - Staging, Building And Moving Bends For Barndominium Build
June 2024
Building these bents is definitely a lot of work and very time consuming. We are getting it done, but we sure do feel the time crunch to meet our deadline- maybe more than I'm realizing. But, it's because we have a crane scheduled and we have to stay on track. And, we want everything to go smoothly on "raising the bents" day - after these bents are built, we have two more- wish us luck! Hope you enjoy this video, we sure do appreciate your support. 😊
Good progress. You are getting better with every bent.
Thanks for bringing us along
Thank you, Mike! 😊
It’s great to have awesome friends and family like Erik. 👍🏻 😊
So very thankful. Definitely could not do this without the help of family and friends, especially Erik. 😊
Bents look great. Great job.
Thank you, Tom- They are coming along! 😁
Howdy Gregg- you guys were moving on. You’re gaining experience and knowledge and confidence. Really looking forward to seeing all standing up. You might pull the most of the weight off the lower cross beam and off the collar tie to keep it vertical. Wishing y’all the best. God bless
Hi, Paul- The lift happened on Saturday. Everything went really good. We screwed a cleat on the post just under where it connected to the rafter. Then had a huge spreader bar that picked from 17’. It seemed to work really well without putting undo stress on the bent. Wish you could have been there! 😊
@@ourdreaminthewoods Yeah, I wish I could have been there also. I was thinking about y’all Saturday. Blessings
@@TheBeardedCarpenter Thank you! We’ll share it all in Friday’s video! 😁
Glad the weather is cooperating for you☀️
Yes! Rained on us a little yesterday, but bent day is supposed to be nice and not too hot! 😅
@@ourdreaminthewoods perfect!
Getting so close 🥳
SO Close! 🤣
@@ourdreaminthewoods I meant to raising em up, not the finish line😊
Coming along great!
Thank you, KJ! 😁
For the TWISTS, put an F-Clamp on it with a 4’ pipe on the handle. Have someone lean on it a bit to straighten as you drill the holes.
Hi- Just looked at what an F Clamp is. I need one and can see how that would work. Thank you. 😁
Looks like you’ve got a good system down for the crew!
Yes, we work great together- very lucky and thankful! 😊
Nice to have Erik back 😊
Definitely! Erik can only work on weekends so he misses out on some of the building! 🥲
@@ourdreaminthewoods darn J-O-B 😂
Can't wait to see it up and running.
Soon. Very soon! 😁
Nice work, guys!
Thank you! Happy to have a great team helping! 😁
you know there is a timber frame drill out there that drills straight holes in the timber
Hi, Jennifer- I saw some jigs that drills go in but either thought the nice ones are too expensive or the cheap ones just seemed cheap.
Or is there something better than that?
Seems like I bought every other tool that is out there. 😆
I’m wearing headphones and I only have audio in my left ear.
Hmmm, sorry about that. Not sure if it’s a balance issue. I might need to watch with my headphones and see if I can figure it out. 🧐
Crane operators won't raise the boom if it's too windy. I think you'll make the deadline. Otherwise, pray for wind.
Well…… Erik is our crane operator. But, I think you’re right. We’ll make it and not supposed to be windy. 😁
@@ourdreaminthewoods Cool. I look forward to the day of raising bents and rafters/trusses.
No Sound?
Hmmm, there should be sound.
The most unorganized mess I have ever seen. I see good work but it looks like the left hand is waiting for the right hand to tell it what to do.
Hi, John- We are basically rookies and figuring things out as we go. I’m sure a professional crew would be a lot more organized and efficient. We are just learning as we go. 😁
