After looking at this structure in the video I would like to suggest, as a builder of 55 years to ad diagonal braces to the ends of the structure to prevent racking. Mainly to keep strong winds from collapsing it. Great job you two. Great Job! Don't forget the bracing.

@ToKindBe 7 месяцев назад

I noticed the movement when they were on the roof. This will definitely help, but the building looks awesome.

@thebigkahuna2753 7 месяцев назад

Yes this !! Awesome job, however when Eric was on the roof, there no side to side movement, but front to back was another thing. Adding braces to the ends will also help in the event a BIG snow load.

@willamettehops 7 месяцев назад

I came to the comments to say the same thing, and I knew it would be a common suggestion.

@brinkee7674 7 месяцев назад

Definitely need bracing front to back. Would really really suck to have that fall on mill. They are also going to want to cover a wall to hang stuff on like blades and tools along with a wind brake Oh and $2k for that is cheap money

@franckherrmannsen7903 7 месяцев назад

you could use steel rope as bracing for the ends

@mikefox2182 7 месяцев назад

You will definitely have to put sway bracing in on both ends...a big bluster of wind will fold your structure to the ground without the end posts having bracing...you can put a 5 x 5 beam in between the end posts at the 7' high level and then put in 45 degree braces into the end posts. Wind blowing has mind blowing force!

@MrRiorust 7 месяцев назад

I like what you have done with the sawmill shed. The way you two work together is awesome. I would suggest additional bracing (as others have mentioned), in the right wind, that roof is going to generate considerable lift. If you look at an aircraft wing from the tip towards the fuselage you can see the profile of the airfoil (the mechanism the generates lift), looking at your roof from a similar perspective you see the same rough shape. Watching your video, you could see some rocking going on while you were doing the roofing. I and not a hater, I am only trying to offer constructive criticism. PS. the music during the intro took my breath away. Thanks!

@wileycoyotesr8623 7 месяцев назад

My father built cabins in NH during the 1980's. He said they always used a drawknife to remove all bark from lumber. Says it doesn't weaker the board but actually helps preserve the wood as insects always begin eating wood at the bark. I thought it to be interesting, perhaps you will too. Just fyi. The sawmill shed is going to be very strong. You build well. 👍👍👍

Her big extra smile and happiness in the intro helped my depression as well today too. I'm hoping Eric will run some conduit and mount some boxes for switches and lights, never know when you might need some extra light in your life. Probably only have a Romex with a big plug in for the generator at the bottom of one of the legs, but you never know might be out there after dark.

But what yall have built will last!!! To watch what you two prove people can do is just an inspiration to more than yall know...

@rokdoctor6144 7 месяцев назад

Awesome build! A small suggestion... perhaps put some bracing on the top of the horizontal shorter side-beams, that link the front and back sides... it will stop the wobbles you had when walking on the roof... and in high wind under snow load. Basically, bracing parallel and stabilising both sides. Mealtimes are so magic... delicious.

@robburri7046 7 месяцев назад

I Agree, I would add more 45's front and back to prevent wobbling.

@kosams 7 месяцев назад

Yes, that would be my only suggestion as we saw when you first moved up there the wind was strong enough to carry away some of your structure. Rooster soup looked yummy.

@rb2530 7 месяцев назад

Young lady, just a little survival tip when using a chop/miter saw. Look at your video at the 5:51 mark. The board is going to the right and you are holding it with your LEFT hand, cross body and operating the saw with your RIGHT hand. Never put anything you do not wish to cut in front of the blade when you are operating it.

@TheKlokan44 7 месяцев назад

You guys have been really working hard the past couple months....so next project should be a day spa - sauna, hot tub, and steam room complex, all off of one central heat source....which you could probably channel into a underfloor heating for part of your living space or greenhouses. Rock on!

@TaigaTurf 6 месяцев назад

Post and beam structure looks great.. adding some ' Bookshelf Girts', simple 2*6 boards layed flat in betwen the posts , will prevent twist on the frame.

@lazaruslazuli6130 7 месяцев назад

That notch in your rafter is called a 'bird's mouth'. Incidentally, when cutting 6"-wide boards on your compound sliding miter saw, you should push the saw back as far as it will go, and cut only in a descending manner, not utilizing the slide (that's for wider boards). Using the slide function increases the chances of a kickback on a 'narrow' board. Your roofing nails are 'ringshanks'. Your 1x roofing members are called 'purlins'. Y'all did a great job. Nice looking sawmill shed. Very professional-looking construction. Looks like a $10,000 structure to me.

@chadmorgan7976 7 месяцев назад

"Eeengineer" here - completely agree with the comments on bracing. The swaying shown in the video should never happen - you are risking your structure by not bracing. It all looks really good and you tied it all together very well, so well it sways end to end with everything moving together - needs bracing. I concur with other comments - a wind at the right angle and intensity will take this down, somewhat easily. I hope you take the advice others have given seriously; I'm sure there is ample detailed technical descriptions on the internet of why bracing is needed for this type of rectangular structure, and plenty of pictures to show what can be installed to mitigate the issue. Love your vids, thanks for sharing, and really like the cost comparison at the end.

@kirkbrown2053 7 месяцев назад

You need to add some of your 45° bracing on your front to back ends to keep the building from racking front to back. Some type of X bracing would be better than the 45° ones...but try and see which work best for you.

One tool that you may consider if the snow is always that light and fluffy is a leaf blower. It is amazing how quick it will move snow off of things, it makes cleaning snow almost fun and easier for this 66 year old.

@Sveske06 7 месяцев назад

From looking at the way it moved when you crawled on to it, I would say you need some cross bracing. If you get a hard storm or 2, you might end up seeing it flat next to the concrete pat.. Sorry for language and spelling mistakes, I am not native to English. Love the work you do, and the videos

@carolewarner101 7 месяцев назад

@Dairyteats 7 месяцев назад

I would be a little concerned about the movement visible in several parts of this video i.e. around 22 to 23 minutes. bracing on the ends would fix that.

@MrSki-mv2kr 7 месяцев назад

Tip from retired military veteran, in extreme cold if you ever need to dig or put a ground rod the ground. Grab a couple cups of rock salt and place exactly on the spot of desire. Let it sit for 8 to 12 hours and the ground will be soft, adding just a bit of warm water will speed up the initial process. I have had to poke the ground to work the salt water mud down every few hours if the ground is frozen deeper than 3 feet. Hope this information helps in the future 👍

@noyopacific 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video Arielle & Eric !!! Very nice job on the saw shed ! I built an open shed and wanted to put some kind of siding on it but wasn't sure what I wanted. One of the cheapest temporary options I could think of was to use canvas drop cloths like a painter might use. It was inexpensive and turned out much better than I had expected. It looks like a canvas wall tent. The canvas has held up well for 3 years. I even used it to make a roll up curtain-like door by using a length of PVC pipe at the bottom. I coiled rope around the ends of the pipe and attached overhead pulleys to roll the canvas door up and let it down. I did use Star brite Waterproofing Spray ($50 / gallon / 400 square feet) which may have helped the canvas last and stay cleaner. The other option I'd thought of was poly greenhouse covering plastic.

The notch (birds mouth) you're putting in those rafters is definitely the way to go. I don't know about anywhere else but it would never pass a framing inspection where I am without those. It lets the weight rest straight down on the supporting member without risk of the twisting you mentioned or even sliding off entirely under the right circumstances. Good job guys

Love your channel. My wife and I wanted to do homesteading in Alaska 40 + years ago but life happens and now like watching. Sawmill shed looks great. The only thing I would do is add knee bracing on those two cross braces on the end, nothing to keep it from keeping it from collapsing and damaging sawmill. The way you two work together it would take you no time to cut 4 knee braces and install. The out of pocket would be your lag bolts since you have lumber for the cutting. Better safe then sorry. Keep up the good work. Oh and we are from Oregon to with me retiring as lead millwright from a lumber mill last year. Again Thanks
