I so deeply appreciate a man who finds his soul flower. I clicked on this video because my boyfriend wants one for clematis! You did a gorgeous job - appreciate the honesty about the trial and error!
Ooooo very nice! I bet Clematis would look absolutely stunning! Thank you so much for watching and commenting. 😀 I would love to hear how your project turns out. Wishing you the best!
Very inspiring
Thank you so much for your very nice comment! It has been so fun and such a nice addition to our garden. Are you going to be building one?
Looks great! However, I think it's a bit overkill for a flower arbor; but im sure it will last forever. Thanks for the video; I learned a thing or two
Thank you very much for watching. It could be considered overkill for sure but I wanted it to be tall and I figured our Wisteria was going to be heavy, so I beefed it up. I also LOVE working with wood and wanted it to be a focal point for our garden. Hopefully it worked and I'm not just biased. 🤣I hope you have a great day and thank you for commenting.
Had to laugh about the estimated time to complete. I do the exact same thing, in my mind a project gets finished fast. In reality not so fast lol The wisteria is gorgeous, my dear Mother planted a vine to grow across a fence by the garage. It was beautiful. Turns out sadly I was highly allergic so now I give them a wide berth. The arbor turned out beautifully, thanks for the detailed instructions along with cost!
Wow thank you so much for watching and commenting. Yes…the pain of some projects taking so long…someone should come up with a name for that. So sorry you are allergic to wisteria! Hope you have a great one!
Amazing build and thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching. I hope it was helpful for you! Happy to answer any questions.
This was great, man. The breakdown is great and the job came out beautiful
Wow thank you so much for watching and for letting me know your thoughts! I really appreciate it.
Great tutorial!!!
Thanks so much Kade! I really appreciate you watching it.
Really nice job.
Thank you so much for watching!
You forgot to include the premade trellises
Whoops. Good catch.
Looks great, I think maybe you could expand the more it’s get bushy, this could be a great business, 10 out of ten ✨
Wow Lexa! Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching our video and really appreciate your kind comment! Hope you have a great one!
Would love to know where you purchased the trellises. We are looking to build an arbor for weddings. My wife & daughter are opening an event center and need one we can move.
We bought our trellis components from Lowe’s. What a great idea! I bet it would be easy to make it in a way you could “assemble” and “disassemble” relatively easy. Thank you for watching.
Love your video.
Please be careful and monitor your wisteria. It’s beautiful and EXTREMELY invasive. It will probably never die. The roots can get up and over 6in thick. Can cause damage to property foundation without you knowing.
We’re dealing with that issue now
Oh my goodness! I am so sorry to hear you are having issues with it and your foundation. How old is your wisteria?
Do you think you need the corbels if your posts are sunk (e.g. not on a footing)?
Good question. Maybe not initially when everything is new but eventually the weather and wind will wear it down and the more it could move around initially (without corbels), the faster it could wear down in theory. In my mind, it is easier to add them in during the initial build so everything weathers the same and the structure stays more square and rigid from the beginning. What are your thoughts? PS I love your username haha.
@@UCanBuildThis understood on your thought process! We built our garden a few years ago and I'm finally getting around to adding the top of trellis (similar to your style). Probably will add in the corbels for good measure but atm the entrance posts with the lattices are rock solid. Thanks for the tips! and yeah...username is a remnant of the past 😆
@IMABIGKIDNOWW nice! Yeah sometimes project take a few years huh! Good point on the fact your posts and lattice are solid. What do you have anything growing on it?
@@UCanBuildThis We've been growing luffas on them but looking to do something more permanent that goes across the top!
I actually do have one follow up question now that I got thinking. Did you just use a forstner and then lag screw the corbel to the vertical post? thanks man
@IMABIGKIDNOWW Well…I’m a big jerk and am just now seeing your comment. I tried using a forstner bit but it wasn’t removing the material enough so I used a paddle bit and went in maybe 2”. This way I cut put a washer on with my lag screw since the redwood is pretty soft.
I’ve never heard of Luffas. I’ll need to check them out! Let me know if you have any more questions. 👍
Hello, great build, love it. For dollar reference, what country are you in? Usd?
Hello! Thanks for watching. I’m in the US. If it’s not too much to ask, where are you located watching from?
@@UCanBuildThis im on the Gold Coast outer suburbs. Queensland Australia
@@tabs123456 oh man! So jealous! That must be so fun. I watched a couple of your videos. Great info on welding! You should post more!
@UCanBuildThis i just made a enterance arbour similar to yours, was watching for ideas and inspiration. I cant post a picture here, otherwise i would. Unfortunately i dont have much time anymore with making videos, Family life and work etc.
@@tabs123456 oh man that’s so awesome. I’d love to see a picture of what you made! Instagram or Facebook?
Thanks for the insight man…I’m starting today and I should be done by the end of the weekend (prob 5 weekends from now, but still ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ lol)
Haha. Get It! Best of luck. I get it though. Sometimes it takes a while. Would love to hear how your final product turns out!
$800 for an arbor, no thanks!!!!
Yeah $800 can be viewed as expensive but also a great deal. I build my stuff to last for the long term. When I do a big project like this, I build for quality over quantity. In my video, I show how companies building this would charge much more so $800 is actually a really great price for the quality and size you get. But, to each their own.
