🔷 ABOUT SAMCRAFT 🔷
Samcraft is a channel all about educating, inspiring, motivating, encouraging, and sharing the things I've learned since starting my own small business in 2018.
In today's video I cut the cardboard concrete tube forms level and mix up concrete to pour my footings and concrete piers for my workshop foundation! I also test out fiberglass rebar and compare it to steel rebar.

Regarding rusted rebar. I'm a retired architect, while in Haiti doing aid work, Habitant for Humanity was experiencing big cracking in their foundations and asked my advice. At the job site, I couldn't find anything wrong and the cause of the large cracks in thier foundations ...UNYIL I saw their rebar ...they had kept it all under cover and well oiled it so it won't RUST! I told them to wip the oil off the rebar and leave the rebar in the rain so as it will RUST! They had no problems with cracking foundtions from that point on.
Sam as long as your tubes are plumb you can take a piece of poster board and wrap it around the tubes so the ends line up and just draw a line around the tube. 👍👍
Good tip!
That’s the way to do it
This shop won't go anywhere with those foundations! Excellent work.
Thank you!
Looks great! Cannot wait to see the building start!
Thank you Sam and Angel! Great job! As always!
Love your channel man. And much better than many at explaining, learning, and describing things in a simple quick manner.
I appreciate that!
Great idea with the fan for dust control.
Good idea with the fiberglass rebar.
Looking great.
I misunderstood the use of the pink fiberglass rebar, but you corrected me. Thank you.
Can't wait for the build to begin. Thank you Angela for helping on the foundation piers.
Great job, Sam. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
"Not the money maker" 😅😂
Nice job!
enjoy your new workshop. blessings 🌻
Thank you! 🤗
Looking great!
Thanks!
Looking great y'all, keep pressing and you'll be done in no time.
Will do!
Looks great!
Thanks!
Looking great Sam! The framing is always the fun part where you really see it take shape. I remember building my garage / shop and once I got the walls up and roof trusses in thinking dang this is a big structure. Now that I’m all moved in it feels much smaller.
I totally agree! I'm lagging behind a little bit on reality vs. video editing (have been taking advantage of the dry weather and working as much as I can), so I can honestly say the walls being up make it feel great! It's nice to see the space to begin to think about layout of things. :)
Good on you sam coming on fantastic.Nice to see someone working hard to achive end goal
Thanks 👍
Nice work guys. 👍🏼
Thank you! 👍
Looks great
Thanks!
Sam….wow great progress! And I had not heard of the pink rebar! Thats super cool!
Thanks so much!
Nice project, happy to stumble across your channel
Welcome aboard!
Awesome work bro
Thanks!😀
Well done Sam, your intro and graphics is the best around to this day. Hate missing framing day, but too far away man.
I am keep an eye on this!
Now let the fun begin
Nice job
great job Sam.
Thanks!
Grate job mate. 😊
Thanks 😁
Nice work Sam :)
Thanks
A piece of bristol board works as a "pipe wrap" of sorts as well for taking a pencil mark all the way around a Sonotube. Just cut a strip about 6-8 inches wide off the long side, wrap it around the pipe at your pencil mark making sure the factory edges line up at the mark, and trace your line around the tube.
Looking good man. From Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada
Thanks 👍
looking good brother
Thanks!
This was extremely informative, thank you! How long did it take for the concrete to cure?
Portaband saw works a lot better and quicker. Going to be a nice shop.
So exciting Sam......
Also ...line the Simpson anchors with #30 felt as all wood will eventually rot in contact with metal or concert ...and lay down .06 mil vapor barrier on the ground under where the structure is going "before" you start the framing. 🤪
Good tips to avoid as much moisture as possible. Maybe even adding a thin layer of 1/2" - stone over the barrier.
Need to make a jig
"All the way around the CIRCUMFERENCE of that tube" Sam!
Yesr!!! ✌️💖🙏🤜
What's the difference between making a rebar cage for the pier vs just placing the rebar in after the concrete pour? Putting them in after seems significantly easier to me. Building a tiny house with a pier and beam foundation and trying to figure out if I should make the rebar cages or just place them like you did.
10:39 That is some wet concrete. Looks like it turned out well.
Hi sam. Looking good so far. I jojned you on your first shop build. Going to be a beast.
I do have a question that your probably gojng to cover in the next video but, how are you gonna stop water from sitting on top of the concrete posts potentially rotting your timbers?
Thinking about it, there shouldn't be any if all is watertight.
Thanks for sharing
The piers sit completely underneath the structure so no water should ever get to that point. The more real possibility is the concrete wicking up moisture from the ground which is why treated lumber must always be used when in contact with concrete.
How long did it take to pour these?
How many columns did you use & how far apart were they? OK and 1 more thing how many bags of concrete for your project???
Can't put loose rebars into a pore footing like that it has to be in a triangular or rectangular cage.
❤❤❤❤❤
Im building a free standing deck, and im trying to calculate my footings and posts. Its going to be 10 feet off the ground and im using 6x6 posts, and either 6x6 beams, or multiple 2x12 nailed together as the beams. Does anyone know how much distance between the posts i need to aim for? Im hoping for less posts so i have more space under the deck to park equipment. Should i go every 8 foot of beam? Or can i get away with a 12-14 foot span between posts? Any help would be great
😂 #pink amazing work

Hey brother, been watching your channel for a minute and wanted to let you know that we used your link to xTool and bought the F1 with a slide under your code. I especially wanted you to get credit for steering us in the right direction! Being close to retirement we needed something that we enjoyed to keep us busy and supplement our almost zero income thanks to GVT screwups, uh Joebronie. Thank you so much from me and my girl. Next, we're buying all your files... Go figure, right? Do you have a bottle opener jig? We are getting a CR Falcon 20w, can you help us get the camera on it so it will do like the OMtech and align multiple objects? Thank you again!
I hope you like it, it's a great little machine and very capable while keeping size to a minimum! I don't have a bottle opener jig... yet? :)
You building a red iron building? Weld up or bolt?
No, this will be a stick framed building.
Curious what length forks you have on the Massey? I'm debating between 42" and 48".
I think these are 48" -- they will stick out the ends of pallets. I like them being longer. It can be a tripping hazard depending how you park the loader, but I like them all the same. These were the best deal around for the SSQA forks and have been a great addition!
@Samcraftcom are those the standard model Titan forks? That's what I was shopping, include hitch and hay fork holes in the fork mounting plate.
What ratio of cement, sand, aggregate did you use? Thanks.
It comes premixed from the hardware stores.
😀
Why did you put rebar in the foundations?
The concrete will be in compression, not sure what the vertical rebar will do?
It's required in most places and a great safety addition for any future unknowns instead of risking it over $5 of rebar. :)
Do the tubes have to be removed?
I would recommend it. Otherwise you may have problems with bug habitats in the wet concrete.
why is it neccessary to strip the paper tubes off? just curious thanks
I don't know that it is necessary, but I removed it to prevent it becoming a nice cozy habitat for bugs to then migrate into my workshop easier. :) That, and it looks better I think.
It's for aesthetics.

Nice,you need to take care of the money Maker have a great day😂😊
Thanks, you too!
An angle grinder with a metal round blade would have cut the steel faster.
A bandsaw
@@ascension6699 band saw is too expensive for the average person to buy. Grinder cheaper.
@@namkebanyanklariti my small battery ridgid one was like $130
Wear gloves guys. It’s fiberglass. Ask me how I know lol
Seems like you created a lot more work by installing sauna tubes and pouring that high of piers where just pouring down below frost line approx 24 x24 footer and then using 6x6 post to support the structure
