Awesome book that gives you step-by-step photos ru-vid.comUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt and directions to make every day project. I can see myself making a few of these projects and giving them as housewarming and holiday gifts!
I've been a builder for many years and have seen quite a fair bit of sheds. The plans in ryan's package ru-vid.comUgkxB7IXYxLzb_Ichhe45zM3Im5xfEiSp9vB have some of the nicest looking sheds i've seen in a while.
Thank you for the videos. I am a disabled veteran and these videos kind of let me atleast see the things that I wanted to do before my legs and body got all messed up. I wanted to build a basic slab sided timber frame wood shop and barn with lumber that I had milled myself. I really like your videos.
hey shoulda coulda wooda comments. hey it works for you. great job ive been a carpenter 46 years we all wood do different thats life im glad for you and inspired
Most people don't realize it but if you were to insulate the underside of the metal roof with an inch of insulation or so, in the summer time it would be 5 to 10 degrees cooler in your shed. Worked in a airplane hanger in Texas years back. There were two identical hangers. One had an inch of insulation and the other had none. The result was at least 10 degrees between the two with the hanger doors wide open.
Great job! You could run a gutter along the back for a water catchment system too. It’d be a convenient way to keep water handy for the mill. My grandpa used to water the chickens and flowers with what he caught from his shed roof. Anyway, nice work! 👍
When you were going to go in on that metal with the saw I was like oh NO and went for my volume. 😂 thank you for silencing that hell noise. Also looks great!
Hats off to you i think it turned out great. Ive watched several of your videos. You keep it real and are down to earth. keep up the good work. Youre a modern day pioneer
Great job! You've inspired me to build a cover for my tractor and trailer mounted pressure washer. I had very similar thoughts on it's construction and you've shown me it will work that way. Thanks. Stay safe!
Great job well done that mobile sawmill paid-off good on that build many more down the road I would love to have one of them Sawmills one of these days I will break down and get me one it would beat buying Lumber when you have plenty of trees on your land to build structures on your property Thank you and God bless you till next time
Got to love the Simpson company for making a metal bracket for every conceivable framing situation. Great job on the saw mill shed. It should server you well for years to come.
Love the shed. Suggestion for keeping some of the rain from coming in the sides. After you close in the back wall, use the cutoffs from the roof tin to bring a short wall down from the top on the other side.
Well you could consider closing in the end where the tractor sits, and coming down bit from the top on the front to reduce the blowing rain from coming in. You might also put up a tarp that rolls up from the bottom on the front to keep the rain out when you were not using the mill. I enjoy your videos and have learned much about milling lumber and harvesting trees.
I agree with cc ward, my tripod towers at my downspouts allow me to use 2/3 of a 55 plastic barrel with a screen to keep out bugs and pine needles, this allows both pressure and reserve of water. Just be sure to leave the bung ports on it to accept plumbing fittings, being able to convert to garden hose keeps it from breaking during freezing temps ( hose). Also, there is a clear(ish, gives it a more golden look) log home honey base wood treatment that with an add on insecticide additive repels carpenter bees. You might want to put that on before they emerge for the season since the sawdust will be impossible to see once you start milling. Try southland log homes, can be applied with a pump-up weed sprayer.
Putting down some of those hurricane straps or strapping is a good idea! Your building looks stout. The rain is gonna sound beautiful under there. Keep up the good work guys!! 👍👍👍😎🇨🇱
You & Howard did a damn fine job! My only suggestion would be to hang a role-up clear visqueen tarp, like you would use on a green hoop-house, on the back side to block the wind in the winter and the rain.
I asked on the first episode where you might be located. I'd love to move to a more rural setting and your place looks great. I like the flatness and all the wooded property you have. Thanks for taking us along on your ride. It's fun to watch something come together.
Great job well done 👍. I think filling in the back with planks is a good idea. Also a bit if an over hang with Tim on the end is also a good idea. Congratulations on your build.
I don't know if you will agree but when all work is done I would bring a bucket of pine tar and brushing them beams especially the roof and thus will give longevity and protection, even will keep hornets from building nests good work thanks for posting
Looks good! It was a enjoyable video to watch and I’m sure you can come up with a better solution than me about extending your wood shed but it was nice that you asked your audience for their opinion it shows that you respect your audience and others and it doesn’t hurt to get other ideas because you might find one better than yours. Keep making your videos they are fun and interesting to watch!
And it's a beautiful shed at that. Gentlemen do good work together. I think an easy fix for the miser is just some tarping thrown over it, tarp sheets aren't that expensive and they do keep off the rain. Along with the rear wall you want to put up on the shed. And if you don't have to park the tractor in that shed but elsewhere, you can just back the miser further into the shed alleviating the need for extra tinning and gabling on the end. just a thought. Stay dry down there !
Good job young man!! I think you will find your way to enclosing sections to keep the weather out. I have one suggestion, please go to the nearest store or home center and get some taller ladders, Heavy duty construction. You won’t do yourself and your beautiful family if you are stuck in the hospital in traction ore worse!! Other than that I think you have hidden skills and you sawmill is now where it will last a lot longer. Best Regards Fred Thomas
great shed charlie. simple addition. Add a 3rd header board to the face of your double that is presently on top of your beams and posts. cantilever 1/3 ratio. add joists, purlins, and tin and keep rocking. I agree with others suggestion. make the bottom ope on the closed in side for easy , saw dust removal. Heck , maybe light weight frame with tin , hinges and a hand crank pulley , to lower and raise when needed?
Run a cable from post to post tight with turnbuckle and weave a tarp like a shower curtain. Just pull it all to the end when cutting and close when not
Brilliant video from start to finish and is packed with lots of pro tips and techniques. You are even teaching a bit of geometry which is really helpful in woodwork. I'm looking forward to you building a mitre station if you are going to do one?
Great video, keep them up. One thing that caught my eye. I don't know how's the situation there in states, but over here, if you leave bark on lumber, it'll look like swiss cheese in few years. Bugs use to hang out right under bark, so it's good habit to debark even for rough construction or storage of lumber.
A piece of rain gutter for back could save you rain water run into a vinyl drum of 30 to 55 gallons. Water could be used to cool your blade while running saw and wouldn't have minerals in it, like distilled water wouldn't have. Great job in using your resources.
Awesome job! Nice to see there are a few left who can build something without a kit. As a kid, I would help my Dad build shelters and sheds. That was before kits, or Home Depot or Lowe's, lol. With the addition of a wall what about lining the front with tarps? String them along the edge with rope to cinch them tight and out of the way. We have done something similar on the patio so I have a place for the tables aw year round. I just roll them up like roman blinds a use 550 cord and square knots to keep them up?
@@mwilliamshs true, I remember my Dad getting a picnic table kit from Hechingers. One for a kitchen table too, he made the chairs though. I don't recall any for sheds, wooden sheds. Sears carried everything back then! A trip to Sears meant getting there as soon as we all got home and closing the store! My Dad was really into Craftsman and woodworking.
Your roof is a giant wind wing. If wind blows in the front and you have the back closed, that roof will try to lift. The solution is to use Galvanized strapping around your top beams and down your poles. Perhaps you don't think this is needed but its very cheap insurance so well worth it. Believe me I know from the experience of a lean-to roof flying for half a mile. One also flew across my mother in laws house and neatly landed on a main road almost intact.
Now that your on your way I would make another double shed for just your tractor with an empty side for future equipment and have your mill end available for any kind of storage sp that the big shed is just for your mill !
