UNBELIEVABLE!! This is AWESOME!! I had plans for a rustic patio roof, but you've taken it to the next level !!! BEAUTIFUL job!! Much RESPECT!!! Thank you!
Well done 👏 I'm glad to see some one else that enjoys working by them self. If I had to depend on my Son-in-law's nothing would get done or Done right. Lol but I do enjoy it got my own sawmill and good oaks. I'm needing to build 1 of these for my Tractor implements
That is awesome! Thank you for watching! Stay tuned for our next big build coming up in a few months. A massive round arbour with traditional and chain saw carvings.
great job getting those 45 deg. supports in using those long lag screws. I'm thinking of doing the same thing as a lean-to next to my 40 ft.long storage container. I don't have the big trees like you have but it'll be basically the same design.
Thank you for watching. In addition to the lag screws, we usually notch as well which ads extra strength and support to the structure. Good luck with your build.
Thanks for subscribing and liking. Glad you like the video. Please check out our channel for our current build. Same log pole style in a 60x30 barn with home-made trusses - Parts 1, 2 & 3...Part 4 pending. Have a great day!
This is an amazing video. Would love to see the specks for length and width in the firs you cut. Also depth the firs were set into the ground at. Again awesome work!
Thanks again for watching. This build was done with fir. You can use several different species of trees, depending on where you live. Most important, long & straight.
What about pouring spent motor oil in the post holes after you set the posts but before you bury them? We do that when we're setting range fence posts.
Could do some kind of bracket there as well. Knee braces arent doing much for load, but it seems more for racking?? Im asking because i have limited building and no real technical engineering know how ...
Hello, Did you experience any problems with the logs being green as far as twisting and such? Looks like some kind of fir wasn't it? We have similar stuff here in Montana.
Depending on the species of trees but at least another 25 to 30 years yours make sure you put gravel in the bottom of the hole so it doesn't retain water
Sorry for the delayed reply. Thanks for responding Jim. You are exactly right; the gravel in the hole and burning the log past ground level is the trick to get the longest life out of the log. Have a great day!
I have a question sir. You put 4 long screws into each of the braces, 2 at the top and 2 at the bottom of each. It seems to me that the bottom 2 screws will be taking the entire load of the roof and snow. Is two screws enough for this weight capacity? Or is the weight being off loaded to the straight up and down posts and these braces are just "extra?"
wow wow as video we have already seen much better, video is video not photos and moreover the sound is very bad we hear almost nothing, it would be good to see the making of
Thank you for watching. We strive for safety as you can see throughout the majority of the video. You are right, he should have had his helmet on when trimming the brace.
@@sliverssawdust5369 not sure how much a helmet helps with a kickback (and i wouldnt try that out, short swords are dangerous, especially if you dont have the lefthand on the machine, which is the one for the safety mechanic, and to counter force of potencional kickback. just saying ;) even with both hands on the saw, there can always be a rock or metall inside a piece of wood... i also sometimes use a chainsaw in flip flops, am not critizising you at all, i just see a very dangerous situation here, and try to make you aware of it, in case you arent. (which looks like it to me:) ) greetings from an german carpenter.
No one needs a helmet. I choose to wear one because I value my brain. This guy runs a lot of equipment and it doesn’t look like his first rodeo. I’m sure he’s well informed of the risks, and has made his informed choice.
Thank you! working on some better sound options. Stay tuned for our next big build - an arbour with chain saw and traditional carvings. Should be out within the month.
It looked like it would be an interesting video. I'm not sure who adds the music CZcams or you but it's unnecessary. I listen to heavy rock, classic rock but i couldn't get past 8 minutes.. repetitive drum beat is easy but enough is enough.. More Cow Bells Please!!!! Ahhhhhhh
Like your project but need better time editing. I am giving up at 10:27. I have no desire to spend 5 min watching a hole be dug. People are busy and also have short attention spans. Youre asking a lot for viewers to give you 45 min. I wont
That's an awesome polebarn!! You're going to get a lot of long years of enjoyment with this.
First and foremost, great job. I live in the midwest, it was impressive that it seemed cold, snow on the ground and you had no gloves! 😎👍
UNBELIEVABLE!! This is AWESOME!! I had plans for a rustic patio roof, but you've taken it to the next level !!! BEAUTIFUL job!! Much RESPECT!!!
Thank you!
Thank you! would love to see a photo of your patio roof.
Wow... This is amazing and to do it alone is even more amazing. Job well done. Thanks for the video!
Thank you! Glad you liked it.
Amazing what one man can do when he puts his mind to work ! Love those heavy timbers !
Thank you for watching. Stay tuned for our current build...a 30 x 60 log barn with a peaked roof for RV and equipment storage.

Very nice brother IT reminds me of my grandfather God bless from Canada eh
That's awesome. Thank you for watching!
Would like to see more of this type of work from you great job love it dude
More to come! Currently working on 150 ft diameter log arbour with chain saw & aboriginal carvings. Partial video to be posted within the month.
@@sliverssawdust5369 great can't wait
@@theodorebowers9737 Hi there. Following up to let you know we now have Parts 1-4 published of our next build; Log pole-barn. Check it out.
Love the guitar riffs 🤠

Thank you! If you haven't already, please subscribe. More great builds to come in the next few months.
@@sliverssawdust5369 New sub!
thanks for this.. Never would have thought to burn the bottoms. Figured just clear coat would keep it form rotting for a good while..
Thanks for watching!
That’s funny!
Awesome great video
Glad you enjoyed it! Keep watching - we have a new big build coming in the next month or so.
Nice! Just started mine.
Good luck with your build!
most excellent ...
Awesome
This is an amazing video. Would love to see the specks for length and width in the firs you cut. Also depth the firs were set into the ground at. Again awesome work!
Thanks! Will get you that information this weekend. Stay tuned for our next big build - a giant arbour with chain saw and indigenous carving.
Would also like to see the specs, like spacing between posts, etc. Also how the cross members are attached to the top of the posts.
very nice great job should work out great well done sir
Thank you for watching. Stay tuned for our next build.
Gotta be northwest, cuz only northwesterners know what its like to strip down to a tshirt when theres snow on the ground.😊
Awesome video, what kind of trees are these? What other kind of trees would be suitable for this type of build?

thanks for watching!
What about pouring spent motor oil in the post holes after you set the posts but before you bury them? We do that when we're setting range fence posts.
It's something to consider. Thanks for the suggestion.
Thanks for watching !!
Cool that you did it alone.
Good job
But should of notched the poles for the knee braces
Could do some kind of bracket there as well.
Knee braces arent doing much for load, but it seems more for racking?? Im asking because i have limited building and no real technical engineering know how ...
Also in another comment he acknowledged that they usually notch the 45s
Hello,
Did you experience any problems with the logs being green as far as twisting and such? Looks like some kind of fir wasn't it? We have similar stuff here in Montana.
It's fir logs. They will do what they do. They shouldn't twist to bad.
Follow along and will be putting up another barn video.
👌
Thank you for watching. Stay tuned for the next build.
What do you know about burning the base as far as how much longer that will last?
Depending on the species of trees but at least another 25 to 30 years yours make sure you put gravel in the bottom of the hole so it doesn't retain water

The weight is on the straight up and down posts.
The braces are just to prevent the shed from shifting side to side
Looks great, any signs of rot yet?
No. Based burned, so shouldn't show any signs of rot for 20+ years. Thank you for watching! Please subscribe for notification of future videos.
Todos los videos los quiero
En Español sino me retiro de you ytube
How did you attach the 2x6 rafters to the logs ?
Used Grk's , and hurricane shaping .
How about using southern pine ??
I use fir, but a person can use whatever they have.
Thanks for watching !!!
Do you think you'll ever enclose the sides and the back?
The barn is being used for cattle. May consider half enclosure on three sides, leaving front open.
6
How long do the posts last
I say they would last 30 to 40 year's
What are your dimensions (height) there?
Thanks for watching. 14 ft at the front under beam and 8ft at the back.
Great job! So, the slope was 14 feet on the front, 14 feet in the middle, and 8 feet on the back?
Great video!! But please turn down the music!
Thank you. We will have an arbour build coming in the next month and I will see what I can do about the music.
you dont have volume control. thats a little rude dont you think.
craftsman for real change up the tunes
I'm learning:) working on downloading better music. Stay tuned for the next big build.
wow wow as video we have already seen much better, video is video not photos and moreover the sound is very bad we hear almost nothing, it would be good to see the making of

chainsaw ... onehanded and leaning above the sword .... i guess he doesnt need a helmet then... 🙄

And suddenly the moment has come when you have to push the mute button ...!
Sorry about the music; just learning. Follow along with our newer videos and give us a comment if you think we are improving.
@@sliverssawdust5369 Use the real sound. What is better than the sound of a chainsaw cutting wood?!
love the video, not the music so much. Don't get the point
Thank you! working on some better sound options. Stay tuned for our next big build - an arbour with chain saw and traditional carvings. Should be out within the month.
wtf with the music?
