Fantastic presentation Kyle and Greg. Not easy to put yourself in front of a live audience and show your skills and knowledge on a stage setup. Very well done!
Good for you. Your passion for proper building is so important. You don’t have to be a good public speaker to draw an audience, you have to know what your talking about and it makes it easier. And so great to see you as a leader giving Your helper so much credit. You are the person apprentices want to work for. You did it live and didn’t flinch. Total credibility. That’s why your are where your at and million followers! Greg is an amazing carpenter and knows your next move. So awesome what you do.
Awesome DEMO! My sons and I are building a post frame building with tools and techniques inspired by your best practices. I study your videos and appreciate your attention to detail. Keep the videos coming!!
1:01:17 On drilling the bracket bolts, if you drill halfway in from either end, it minimises the skew error, and you don’t end up coming out in slightly the wrong place
I'm not a builder. Just a guy that loves post buildings. Spend weekends in my shop. Yes my posts are in ground. I have those plastic protectors, but always wonder how rotten these 12 year old post are getting. Guess I'll find out when the right wind storm comes through. Thanks Kyle & Greg for the demo. I enjoy watching you guys make works of art with every video I watch!
I'm not in the trade but I do enjoy taking on projects around the house. I love watching the process in hopes of learning something new - especially if its saving me time or hassle. Thanks for being so passionate about what you do and sharing that knowledge to boot.
Awesome presentation, I really appreciate you guys stepping up and showing not only the audience but millions of us viewers how to perform quality post-frame work/construction. Outstanding Gentlemen.
I do what you do, but with software. It's not easy to spend an hour and a half in the spotlight talking, calculating, and trying to teach or convey a method. You and Greg did an amazing job. I hope you do more of these in the future. We're building our post frame this fall and it's all starting to make sense. Thanks you two!
Never will I deal with Amish again.. ever.. 1/3 the price. 2 workers. Brothers I'm sure. Shit care for detail. Soffit, fascia, windows n gutters. Fuck em through n through. Not in today's world
I enjoyed the presentation with Kyle and Greg! I watch all of your videos and appreciate the effort that you put into your videos for our education. Thank you!
Great demo guys. Love the channel and can't wait to start my own building this year. By the way, it's called a spirit level because the fluid is some type of ethanol base, not water. When your apprentice uses one as a pry bar and cracks the vial, you can smell the spirits.
''maybe you guys are realizing i have trust issues with other peoples work'' 🤣🤣🤣 i had to laugh!! but man, that is so recognizable. what an exelent demo and presentation!!
What a beautifully done ru-vid.comUgkxYGamVaHfdHiPlAQaLa7zkwR02OKpGYDU ! The instructions and the photographs are brilliant. It is thorough and genuinely informative. Ryan got another winner! No one does it better!
Excellent video for demonstration and information on your style of construction. With all the videos from your start I have gained insight on things I could have done with my post building. Thank you for sharing what you have learned over the years.
Let us say thank you for the video and for the presentation it's really illuminating on what new things can happen in the future we look forward to this great content in the near future keep up the great videos
Man, I don’t even build for a job anymore and I love watching the industry get better and better. I just wish there were as many craftsmen as there are people building. It seems that “we” are not getting any smarter…it seems.
Great video! You guys should do a similar long format full in depth video, full build REAL-TIME and REAL BUILD of at least the main shell. Mainly for us dummies/rookies who are extra slow. Thanks for the great content, keep up the good work!
Guys, I am a retired General Contractor and Mason. I have done live show presentations and demonstrations of how to complete various ways of doing things. Great Job. I know how difficult it can be not wanting to bore your listening audiance and yet take the time error free to show them how your methods work for you.
Very interesting the way you frame. As far as cost efficient, I like to frame 4 foot ladder sections. I just shim the double top plate for a level ceiling and roof.
Post in the ground is a thing of the past. I put up a building in 2018 and noticed on the north side the post are already getting bad. Their showing 3/4" of rot. No more post in the ground for this guy. I my cost a little more for cement, but you have something when your done. Now I'll have to send a lot more more to fix this problem.
I hope you do more these live trainings. I’m a slab on grade builder and this is fascinating to me . What is the best way to stay informed about when and where you hold demos like this one ? Thanks for all the educational content and showing people that quality workmanship is still out there .
@@RRBuildings I’m just giving you shit. I don’t even build pole barns but I enjoyed the whole video! Those Amish are a different breed - but I guess when you have 30 guys working on it, you can get shit done fast
Kyle, great live presentation that you and Greg presented. It looks like you work well together as a close knit team. Keep up the great work and videos, I am learning a lot by watching you both work. My son and I are planning on building a couple of post frame building next year on our property.
I looked up the construction master pro and it's actually a subscription service. Quite cheap for a pro who makes a lot of use out of it but still a monthly cost.
Hey Kyle, loved watching this video. Thanks for taking the time to do it. Finish carpenter here, and it occurred to me, why don’t you guys throw a 1/2” x 1” chamfer on the outside of the column bottoms, so that they can more easily slide into the foundation brackets?
Just for curiosity in Serbia we still level the larger distances with a cca 7 dollar water hose filled with water which has more accuracy than the laser nivelator. Because laser has some 4mm tolerance on so many meters and water hose has none. Yes, you got it right, seven euros or dollar.
How do you correct for temperature when the sun comes out and your hose and water expand? Infinity variable returns...new lasers are +/-1-2 mm over 300'. Better than any worker or pencil width
@@soving I didnt touch all the details. Water has to be cold and it has to be used right away. Warm water has bubbles. As far as tolerance I read in the manual 3 or 4 mm depending on the model. The hose cant be pinched. I am saying its cheap and accurate.
@@soving or to simplify the answer, you spill the lukewarm water and sifle fresh one from a bucket or such. I was trying to tell people that a cheap and very accurate alternative exists.
Always enjoy watching your videos. Funny, I was watching the video and saw one of my buddies walk past. 🤣 On a side note, I'd hire Greg, less talking means more work getting done. 😉
I roughly cut my frame from round logs with chainsaw. Burn-charr piece that goes in ground, put gravle in hole bottom, and connect logs with bolts (predrill holes). If roof is not leaking, stands strong over 20years, no problem.
Watching the series in this build and being an electrician, I believe you have other conduits which penetrate your air control layer. I recall seeing conduits going to the attic area through a top plate. Any and all conduits which break the barrier need to be fully sealed after wiring has been installed. In Canada we use a product called "duct seal compound'. It is a type of putty that never hardens fully so it could be removed down the road if ever needed and then reapplied. It's approved for use around electric equipment. We use it to seal the service entrance conduit primarily to prevent condensation inside the panel when moist air mixes with cold. Love watching your work! I'm always impressed with the quality steps you take. I try to provide the same as an electrical contractor. It would be great to work on one of your projects as we are like minded with respect to quality and continuous improvement! Keep up the great work!
You know as we watch your show for a second time we understand that people around you are slowly going away because they do not understand what you were trying to get across to them so these people that are moving all around you you need to grasp at their attention or bring in a hook liner so that it brings them more interesting to the kind of work that you're trying to show them only actors is what we found in our experience that would show others how things work you know even on TV they have actors show someone's work and how it works or a tool or the greatest thing on fasteners or nails or screws whatever it might be it's always an actor presenting someone else's theory of how something would work or how something would go by using these type of human beings to bring your points and your understanding across makes it a better way for them and for you this is our opinion of how we are watching what you're trying to bring across and believe me we are in the understanding of the way that you are working
Man, you stared all wrong as you said social media..I remember laying out 35 story buildings and all We need are PLS and A Hilti PM-30 no need for a 2K lazer..
Can you make a video of how you calculate and make the angle cuts for valleys and hips by drawing it out on paper? I'm a visual constructive learner. Or do you have a video like that? Going to apply for a job in this trade soon.
