Poor design with the slanted bottom. It allows water to run down the sides and enter directly on top of the timer housing. Water then gets into the housing and destroys the timer
Looks like you are doing pretty good to me, just going to have to store the stuff you use the least in the other building or build an addition on to this one.
I think that's going to be kind of my plan. There a things like chemicals and oddball stuff that really doesn't need to be in this shop.:) But if it requires electricity is needs to be in the new shop because I had the power cut off to the old house shut off last week.:)
David that old propane tank will make someone a good offset smoker and they go for good money. I'm guessing from the size of it it's at least a 500 gallon.
Yeah it was a 500 gallon tank. Even empty the guy said my tractor would struggle moving it. I thought about a smoker but I don't smoke much so it would be a waste of time to convert it. :)
Just be careful having a shop change your oil and add fluids - they do not honor proprietary fluid requirements on vehicles requiring them. Your gaskets and seals will croak way too early and you're gonna have a new transmission bill to stick on the fridge...all by design
Right now the house is in a state of confusion. Hopefully once I can get it straightened up I'll do a tour or something. It finally rained, but the dust from the outside was aweful!
Depends on where you live and the manufacturer. The price also depends what the dealer provides in the price. But you can figure on anywheres from 169-200 grand depending on the extras.
As a kid, I used to love these! My favorite was the biplane they called "the flying circus". One year, I had one that lasted all summer! I guess I learned to take care of my planes, they cost around $1.75! That was a lot of money for a kid who got only about .75 a week!
The company that set, leveled and mated the two halves together did. I asked if he made sure there would be no leaks and he said he does it correct the first time because he doesn't have time to go back and correct things. :)
@@Ijustpiddle The exterior mating joints includes the trim around the exterior windows, doors, corner trim where the siding fits behind the trim. Are these mating joints sealed with sealant?
One bit of advise is get someone under there and rat and snake proof where the two houses join together!!!!!!!! Jesus is coming very soon to get His church we need to be ready if we want to heaven our home!!!!!!! God Bless!!!!!!
Eventually. It has its issues with the floor in the kitchen buckling and other stuff. In the area I live I know I could rent it out. I have seen worse places that people around here pay rent for. But I live here for the privacy and seclusion. I don't need someone living 50 feet in front of me, and the septic isn't big enough for 2 houses. :)
Great video, just by the way, the LED lights in the shed caused the black fading in your video at the end. Doesn't bother me in the least, just didn't know if you knew that. Great progress man, keep it up!
I noticed that. I thought it was my camera trying to auto focus on my face. I was sitting on the edge where the garage door closes and with me leaning towards and away from the camera I thought it was a focusing issue. Thanks for watching and letting me know!
It was throwing a couple codes for the first couple of days after I started to use it. Seems to be fine now. I do like that I can set the water temp right on the panel.:)
@@mrsbakerburke Did the manufacturer seal all exterior mating joints with sealant. Around the exterior windows, doors, vents for the dryer and exhaust vent for the kitchen?
@@rickfletcher5053 yeah it works. I bought this Kreg jig when I was putting up the walls and building my work bench in my Arkansas shop. I also used it when I built my work bench in my little shop here in Missouri.
Congratulations! My father purchased a brand new Clayton double wide 28X60 in 2000 and it's still standing strong after going through several major hurricanes and being narrowly missed by F2 tornado. Due diligence in upkeep and water tightness plays a major roll in how well these stand up throughout the years. Now I'm 50 and debating which brand I'll be going with in my next purchase. Probably either Champion or Clayton.
Thanks! I have no doubt that this home will last me for the rest of my life. This home is tied down and will support winds up to 160mph. There might be trees on top of it, but the home will still be here.
