I thought...this is not going to interest me ( a 73 yr. old. grandmother). Boy was I wrong, Art, you make everything so interesting. Love your channel and your family. I pray for you often.
Wonderful! My how that brought back memories. Years ago when we first moved on our farm, moving buildings, taking down old buildings and cleaning trash piles kept us busy for several years. Your doing a good job.
Congratulations on 200k subscriber. This blessed family deserve it.
ART, I'm pleased to see you work on saving this shed!! About 50 years ago I watched an "old" man lift a small wooden garage that looked like this shed with just one of those jacks. He lifted it, built 3 low walls of stone, and straightened it out over several days. I kept checking in and have thought about him often as an example of yankee strength and thrift, skill. That was in Port Clyde, Maine.
I had friends who were part of the back to the land movement in the 70s. Always wished I could have done it too,I but it wasn't ment to be. I live in western Massachusetts USA. Thanks.
Woah Art!!! 200 K amazing. Congratulations to you and Bri !
CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN GUYS! WITH HITTING 200K SUBSCRIBERS On the channel. Your hard work and dedication doesn't goes unnoticed and this year is going to be ablessed year and so many amazing and new things and easier things with all the blessings that will be doing this summer on the homestead. Blessings to you and and yraying extremely harder for momma and baby for a safe and healthy labor. Sending my love and congratulations again you are AMAZING AND DESERVE MORE!!!
Arthur, I love your shed too my fingers are crossed for a safe gentle trip to its next resting place. Imagine the story that small building could tell.
Continued safety to the whole family...
Woot woot. 200,000 subscribers. Congratulations 🎈.
Art you ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE WAY YOU RAISED THAT SHEDD WOW I'M IMPRESSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for sharing your great bracing and prepping 👍 for the shed to be moved! I had a boyfriend that made a living moving buildings for a living. I was amazed how much bracing, taping windows and lifting it onto skids for the move. We had a mine that was quite active for years which was closed about 80-100yrs after opening. There was a company owned pub, postoffice/general store with 2&3 bedroom houses surrounding the main entrance. They had to clear the area so they put the 3bd house for $10,000 & 2bd for $5,000! The catch was you had to remove it by a deadline if not fines were added until either it was resold bc you couldn't fulfill your agreement or a forest co came demolished & removed the debris. I watched it maneuvered out of the mountains,thru winding narrow roads & brought to an undeveloped piece of land & left on bc wood and blocks so that plumbing etc could be installed. Our family got a 3bd & was moved about 40miles or so from it's spot. It made it perfectly in great condition not a broken window or a crack anywhere. That was 40yrs ago and still going strong with all the modern updates & withstood little kids growing up!!!!!
Awesome Job! Congrats on 200,000 subscribers ❤️🙏
I really enjoy following your journey.
Glad you were able to get the skids under and fastened to the shed. I keep thinking the ground is too soft for it to slide though. Guess we'll find out out soon enough. Thanks for sharing this part of the job. Have a Blessed day.
Congratulations on 200k🎈🎈
Great to see you do this! Thank you for the angles of attack!
Your getting it done Art, being steady can win the race. Although Spring time can often have out plates running over. Keep us in the loope 👍
Instead of dragging it over the ground, have you thought of rolling it? We've moved sheds a couple of times using PVC pipe as rollers. When it was up hill we used a winch tied onto a tree. I've helped move very heavy equipment with the help of a Johnson Bar and metal rollers several times.
I vote that method also. Me, by myself, moved a 100 gallon fish tank 25' on "rollers".actually they were weights from my window sashes when I upgraded.
we moved a rravel trail with galzanized pipe. SLICK
When I was a kid we moved heavy wooden rowboat and small sailboat from a barn to the water at the Maine coast using 4 or 5 logs 8 to 10 inch wide, and the rope up and down the rocks. No machines, just 2 adults and a few kids . It wasn't hard with lots of help.
Love how you save the old stuff
"Wow, Art you made that look so easy, but I know it's extremely hard on the arms and knees hard work well done Blessings :)
Congratulations on your 200K. Your channel is so wonderful that people realize it and subscribe.
☮️❤️-Kirsten
Another great day on the homestead
Pure spring water from the mountain is a real blessing.
Some might have just dismantled it or set it on fire, you show such respect for the man who built it, to save it, good show
And it will probably last longer still than any shed he could buy or build today. Good job.
That was pretty interesting. I had no idea how that was done but now I do. Thanks for sharing! 😎
Good job Art 👍👍
“Ok, we have two big problems; one, I just kneeled in dog doodoo”... hahahaha! I literally spit my coffee!!
Glad you didn't have to get under the shed!
Very interesting, loved watching you do that, I had no idea. Great episode!
Great job! Be careful doing this kind of work. You really should have someone there with you when doing this kind of work!
Absolutely. You're jacking an old shed that might flex or snap that is supported on irregular blocks (irregular shape and material) if it shifts, it can fall off the supports. If you're unlucky, you could have arm or leg under it when it goes. (If you're really unlucky it could be your chest!) Having someone else there could end up saving your life.
Miss Art. Hope things are getting better for everyone.
OMG! Congrats on 200,000 subscribers! Love this channel and what it represents! Keep it coming! Tell Bri I need more cooking videos! LOL
Make sure to put a brace from sled to sled runners in the front & back. that should keep the runners from tweaking and collapsing your shed. When you get it to its new location build a short cement foundation to fit under the shed to keep it from sinking/shifting in the future.
Hope all goes well Art.
I love watching your family thanks for sharing
Good luck Art
Great job Art !! You made that look easy. I’m gonna do that to my conex and get it above Hurricane Harvey flood level ... thanks for the lesson ! 😎
Enjoy watching your videos
Nice narration. Very interesting video.
LOVE the honey crunch on a pb&honey sandwhich.
Must feel good to work on an outside project after spending the morning demoing inside the house. Fresh air refreshes.
My house will be 100 next year, last year I had to have one side of it raised 3.5 inches to level it out. I was amazed and how well it worked. I also learned building a house on post and beam is not such a good idea, probably why it is no longer an option.
I was glad to see you put braces underneath "in case"! When I was young, my daddy was underneath our car, working on it, and it fell on his chest.
Hope he was ok. I have a memory from when I was real young, I think 2, 3, or maybe 4. I saw one of my mom's friends/boyfriends roll out from under a vehicle just in nick of time. The whole thing happened in super slow motion. An old boat on a scissor jack. The wheel was off of car and I remember seeing the booger green behemoth seeming to blow in the wind. slightly left then slightly right. Then more left and more right at which point I noticed her friend and thought he must've been as strong as he-man. But then it stopped🤔🤔... Or did it🤔🤔?? It's still slowly moving, sloooowwlyy and sloooooowwwww..... Then BAM!!! the man moved so fast that I thought he kicked the jack. In reality, I'm pretty certain that was one tight ass bolt that he simply couldn't break loose but tried to the point that the car rocked to a point of no return. the jack rocked beyond that critical point and the vehicle creeped forward bending, semi crushing, then shooting the jack in the opposite direction. Man was fine but only by the hairs on his bawlls.. his red metal tool box wasn't so lucky. Half was crushed and other half was sticking out beyond the wheel well/axle. I thought it was a dream until one day I was talking to my son about the importance of using jack stands, being on flat ground, etc and my mom overheard me telling him about it. She confirmed it had happened when I was a toddler.
I a shed that had a good foundation. We place the shed on concrete footer that sat in a box full of gravel. It had great drainage. This lasted for about ten years. Two years ago an irrigation pipe broke UNDER the shed. We never noticed until the grass started dying. They damage was already done because it cavietated the earth under the shed. Well I fixed the pope but want to level the shed now.
This was a great video! Got some good ideas on how to get this job done on the cheap!
Things were built to last..
Have a good day ❄❄❄
If you put tin on the foreword end it will slide easy with out grabbing, and put a brace on each end as not pull the ends together.
Please remember to wear a Back Support Brace for the heavy works you are doing. Good luck and bless.
This was so fascinating. Very interesting. Wow!
Well done!
I use 4 inch pvc pipe to roll the building on. Tie the two runners together.
Well it rolls better than runners on dirt. I have move many sheds on plastic pipes.
I enjoy watching and learning as you go...I pass your site to Andrew Camarata's site..He's moving a shed also..You guys are something else.
I enjoyed watching you put those braces underneath that old shed that will make Brianna a wonderful canning shed God bless take care south Mississippi keeps watching
I think that you can get those straps to brace the shed all the way around. The top middle and bottom line of the shed, that will help with stabilizing it so it does not come apart while moving it it.🤞🤞
Well this was amazing to see what one determined man can accomplish with simple set of tools. Those little jacks are for the flipping win. Wow. I was afk-ing a midieval skilling game in another window, and I told the other players what I was watching. One of them was a carpenter in real life and we all ended up having a big discussion about Art moving this 100 yo oak shed with skids and some jacks. The carpenter confirmed that oak gets stronger with age. Fun youtube/runescape moment.
A bar of cheap moisturizing soap works great to get screws and anchors into harder wood. Great video! Nothing like that honey crunch w/pb!!
Great work and great ideas for me to follow. Thank you very much!
I love watching your family videos thank you. Now I want a homestead LOL. I will be praying for this to come if God wants us to have one 🙏🙏💝😇
Nice work.
Amazing tool there ! Ty Jesus. You did a good job showing us your job
Well done! I live in a metro area and have had difficulty getting a contractor to my house for nearly a year. Today is the day, finally! We'll see if they think they can get materials to do the job.
That is some good info. As some others have suggested, you might try using pipe and rolling the shed to wherever you need it to be. 💪
Logs.
Dont forget to put spreader beam between the runners so they not turn in when attempting to pull
Suggest using some round fence post to atleast get moving
👍👍👍. If all works well moving this “historic” building to its new sight it may last for a hundred plus years or more. Only if you use wood like the wood that it’s built out of will it out live all newer construction and future builds. And where you finally place it where it has a chance away from flow of water. I see old houses more and more being saved as newer ones don’t stand up to the test of time. In one hundred years what will we have to share of what was built in recent years. It will all have crumbled away cuz it was hurriedly built and cheaply made all turned into another parking lot years later. But your shabby looking shed will still be standing if only you give it some TLC as it definitely deserves it. Even taking time and the skills the old house you’re restoring was once built with the mind of forever. That’s the gift you want to leave for generations to come and all the love you put into it to be noticed by them and all the pain to make it all part of your history. They may not remember you but they’ll know and honor your work as all you built and restored will still be standing 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Just a thought: maybe put a couple of cross braces between those beams, one in the front, and one in the back. It will keep the braces from wanting to pull together to a “V” when you pull it. That’s a lot of weight.
You are going to need a cross brace in front and back so that you don't rip off the runners.
Thank you for the video
Really good video thank you for these tips i have a shes to fix and needed to see some other way to do it and this one seems simple even tho u need to know how to do it properly
My personal feeling is all small sheds and animal shelters should be put on skid steers or wheels for easy mobility. It is easier to start the build that way than add them later.
It was built a hundred years ago.
@@Brifromscratch That was my estimate!
Good job
Homestead Jenga.
Be safe with the shed.
hahahahah i love how anything is a tool. Brick is a marking tool. fist is a hammer. I do the same, what ever gets the job done.
Nice job. Next time you have hard driving tech screws wipe the threads on a bar of soap to lubricate them, they will go in like butter. On long ones you you may need to do it twice. When you get around to moving the shed, throw down some heavy cardboard, sheet metal, old pipe, 2-3" round logs or what ever you can find under the skids.
Yay you for getting r done! 🎉🌠☮️💖🙏
*GOOD JOB FRIEND GOOD👍👍*
Good luck this is awesome
This looks like great game for grown ups to play.
Much like what I did as a chikd and college student
Well done. 💞💞
Good morning, this is what I need to do to my shed:) but mine is going to stay in the same spot and I will use cinder blocks.
Ingenuity at its best...just like in olden days with modern jacks
Art you do know you can get right angle adapters for your Dewalt Drill/Driver? Maybe that would have made this job a little easier. There are also flexible bits available too.
i have one here, it's a game changer. He would have finished the job half video :)
Art great 👍job alot of work for you to do. Can't wait to see 😍it moved. Love you guys. 🥰❤💞
I bought this little impact driver from Walmart for like $25. I use it all the time and it would have worked really good in your situation.
Yes!! Stop, drop, eat some snacks and watch!! Ooo, ooo, watch art and bri vlogs ooooo 🤣🤣🤪🤪🤪❤
Hi...... Art, thank you for sharing your video homestead 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
Amazing
Amazing how you can move something like that!
I was just about to say now just cut a few old tree logs and roll it down the hill instead of gouging up the lawn! ..but someone beat me to it lol
Your rounded end is backwards... Oh you changed it awesome 👍
Nicely Done 👏 Art!
JO JO IN VT 💕😄☃
I'm jealous. You get to drink pure spring water. There is nothing better.😊
I'll stick with good clean tank water. I can see my roof, and I can see that it's clean to produce good clean cloud juice. Even if you get your spring water tested and it's good when you test it, you can't see what's going on, so you don't know what contaminants can sneak in after the test.
Awesome, looks really easy!! I will get some bottle jacks asap! Should I empty out my shed before I lift it or leave everything in there?
Thank you for the tutorial. Hoping and dreaming of jacking-up my old shed. What a good day that shall be.
Thanks for the inspiration & Jesus bless you and your family.
It's awesome that you saved the shed, most people would have turned it into a bonfire.
Sorry it’s too late, but you could’ve started screwing the screws into the new beam (stopping just before the tip sticks out) before placing it under the shed, then the screw heads would only stick out a little bit, so you probably could’ve fitted the screwdriver under, without extra lifting (perhaps only needing to scrape away some loose dirt).
Love watching your family. Your wife has such beautiful hair, I'd love to know her routine and products she uses.
Arthur, you must have a lot of guardian angels
I love these cypress sheds.cypress is my favorite look when it comes to sheds and small old houses.theres just something about that old look that amazes me.
Edit:I heard him say oak.is the outside boards oak also?it looks like cypress to me but I'm not an expert when it comes to wood so I can definitely be wrong.can someone confirm what the outside plywood is please?
When you’re getting it in and you hear another car pull up… @1:43
Charlotte from Ky.🙂
I would really like to see how you move this one! is there video anywhere of it? I have a similar project coming up
