We are building a horse barn! One thing I have a challenge with when building patios, decks, sheds or any other building is making the foundation square. I know there are methods like the 3 4 5 method (3-4-5 method) but I needed something more visual. This project helped me SO MUCH!

I'm sorry I really feel 10% dumber after watching that..... That poor child.. I bet he's home schooled. Someone call child safety. P.s. don't marry you your sister kid's. Wow

@truitkothmann5475 2 года назад

What's so hard about running a string line off batterboards and pulling a tape ti make sure it's perfect, mark your strings and bada bing

@bowermanwinburn6723 3 года назад

Stodoys Blueprints has some very useful blueprints with all the details you need.

"She's so cute." Yes, she most definitely is. ❤️ Wishing you great success with the build.

@freakygeaktwo 7 лет назад

oh neat you have your own brand of lumber :D that is your name was on the wood ;) I like the missus job and she gets to read too :D that's a fantastic idea sir even for an seasoned constructor I'm sure thanks for sharing

@daddykirbs 7 лет назад

Thank you. :)

@evephillips6701 7 лет назад

A very good share from you and Luke making it all look so easy for anyone who wants to mark out some lines to build!

@master_vator 2 года назад

So if the diangles are the same distance, it should be sqaure?

@bowermanwinburn6723 3 года назад

Do it yourself, visit the Stodoys website and find out how.

@rickyworks2067 4 года назад

Sir Sir Sir I have been looking and asking for months as to how to square four poles in the ground. You brought a college idea to kindergarten and everyone can understand. If you have cashap please let me know. You should get paid. Thank you Sir.

@zoso1123 2 года назад

A2+b2=c2 if u have a construction calc u can do rise run and hit diag and blamo its spits your diagonal out in feet and inches.

@TrixieM712 7 лет назад

guess i'll have to play Bocci in Maggie's house...lol...Good job. You measured your diagonals so your all good.

@daddykirbs 7 лет назад

Bocci ball sounds fun too ;)

@thuffman44 7 лет назад

@cookinitmax 5 лет назад

Thanks I could of used this two days ago. I'm new to all this building stuff my deck not square 😓

@kirstenwhitworth8079 7 лет назад

How exciting to be building a stable for Maggie! That was a very practical solution to a technical problem, too. So, it looks like you might be getting that horse we saw?

@daddykirbs 7 лет назад

real good chance :)

@martinboon6620 10 месяцев назад

No way man, I'm about 10,000 miles away and trying to work out a fool proof way of getting a curb frame for a block paving patio square inside cockeyed boundaries. I thought I had come up with a genius idea. Looks like we are using the same idea. Genius' think a like or fools never differ (English saying) I'll let you decide which we are. Hope it all works out. All the best.

@geminirhythmspirit2573 7 лет назад

wow you just gave the confidence i needed to begin making my goat barn, thank you man, all the way from the UK,,

@mizsterious 7 лет назад

I'm so excited about the build and your families expansion on your back forty! All the progress watching all the growth is AmAzInG!! Fills my heart to the max that Luke is right up in there helping, learning more for his own growth. You guys are the BeSt! Very snazzy, attractive duck alarm up there on that hill, hubbbadahubbada! Lovin' your family! As always be kind, Enjoy and Love one another! Thanks for this share!

@daddykirbs 7 лет назад

I LOVE my duck alarm ;)

@bull5919 5 лет назад

you attempted to try and simplify something but in all reality you created more steps and wasn't successful at simplifying anything...Its one thing to come up with something that you can relate to that does not mean you have simplified anything..In this case you didn't come close to simplifying nothing

@deepnurmom1737 4 года назад

Great vid u should make it wider though it won't cost much more and you will be glad you did it Nvm ur prob done already lol didn't realize this vid was that old

@chuckfullerton1771 2 года назад

This little lesson taught me how to square my project and saved me lord knows how much time pounding out batter boards. Diagonal measurement perfect.

@rodgow529 7 лет назад

Luke is a great helper

@armorvestrus4119 3 года назад

Next time try the 3-4-5 method it is much easier. Or create one long line and swing the tape method.

@sallyweiner4180 7 лет назад

Luke is quite a handy carpenter!!!

@frankmurphy5 3 года назад

Great video, thanks! In theory, I know how to do this the "professional" way. But I do it so infrequently that it ends up being way harder than it should be. Having a clear visual layout really helps.

@oysteinholand 7 лет назад

NICE! :D Can't wait to see the development of the barn! I Bet Maggie and Tao will love the new barn!

@daddykirbs 7 лет назад

It will be a much nicer location and setup for the horses for sure :)

@bull5919 5 лет назад

first of all the parralell to fence had nothing to do with the equation as to why he stated that i don't know because we all know anything can be square and not be running parralel

@Kath1320 7 лет назад

3-4-5 method, foolproof

@ericyoung5004 7 лет назад

Something you may want to consider is your process would be harder to do on a longer building a framing square is good for a few feet but when your 100 foot long it will be off, need to look up batter boards

@katedansyng1553 7 лет назад

Blake, if there is anything I can do to help, just let me know.

@daddykirbs 7 лет назад

You got it!

@cutlasscrazy6081 4 года назад

I just used this method. Like a half hour ago. Works great. I used skids that were square and had the same results. You are a master of your craft. Keep up the good advice and great video.

String line first

@ponyvet77 7 лет назад

New horse barns made right always make me happy. What are you planning for footing in there?

@daddykirbs 7 лет назад

Was thinking just doing wood chips on the clay soil. Suggestions?

@ponyvet77 7 лет назад

If budget allows for it I would use tailings (packed down and "graded" a bit to make the floor a bit higher than the ground) and cover that with either lime screenings or fine gravel (and rubber mats if you really want to get fancy)...otherwise it may get too damp and prone to getting mucky (and gaos can appear under your walls, which could be a hazzard for their legs) Then bed with shavings/whatever your bedding of choice is. Really it depends on how well tgat area drains when you get your Texas downpours
