You have to be one of the most entertaining youtubers, with excellent quality videos and really high quality builds. Please post more!! I regularly wonder when the next video is coming!
hey man, love the work would love to see some behind the scenes stuff if your down to do that, more content is better right? "what can go wrong?" top 10 famous last words.
Bought me a shirt. I like to think, in some small way, I am contributing to the development of a new DSM entry: Post Traumatic Gas Tank Repair Disorder. Awareness is the first step to finding a cure, you know.
This has to be my favorite channel! Ronnie, please do your best to upload more! You're videography and editing are amazing! Thanks for putting things on the internet worth watching!
As an ex carport technician, please consider a few things to ensure your safety: *Put in stoppers at the end of the tracks, there's a risk that it flies out the back if you open it overly enthusiastically. *Install a horizontal brace from one track to the other at the end of the tracks that keeps the them from drifting apart - which would possibly dump a door onto you or your current project. The angle iron will work to fasten it onto, just have it as low as possible while making sure the door clears it. *Brace the door midway up as well, as wide doors tend to sag while open and tweak the rollers. At best, it's not going to seal properly from weather, at its worst it will pull the rollers out of their bracket.
I've worked with these since i was 14, and i agree. proper quality doors comes with windbraces when they're this wide, usually in every other segment depending on how tall they are
>*Put in stoppers at the end of the tracks, there's a risk that it flies out the back if you open it overly enthusiastically. can confirm this, almost killed my little brother when my dad gave it too much force and it came off, missed him by inches
You know what the best part of your videos is? They highlight all the mistakes and terrible decisions that goes along with DIYing stuff. 99% of videos make it look so easy and have a tendency to make you feel like an idiot when you can't do something perfectly the first time. I swear, I can't replace a spark plug without something going wrong and costing me another hour of work
Very nice work! FYI, if you still haven't put siding on, you can increase the shear strength of the OSB by increasing the amount of nails on the perimeter of each panel up to 2" OC. You'll probably want to make sure each edge has a full 1.5" of bearing surface (a full stud width) when you put in that many nails, though, to prevent splitting. It's mostly limited by the nails ripping through the board, so more nails = more surface area that has to rip. Also short panels like this can benefit from seismic hold downs even just for wind, because it keeps the entire panel from rotating independently and pulling through the sill bolts. You can probably re-use the same bolts you already have in place for this.
Additionally, pulling the building back into place when you address the other walls will help a lot. Getting shear strength in the back and side walls is a good idea. Might as well do it if/when you take the siding off.
As a huge fan and the owner of a concrete and masonry business it was fun to see you tackle that side of the project yourself. You did an excellent job. Our business doesn't scale well down to projects that size and i tend to not provide quotes but instructions on how to DIY in an attempt to create goodwill for future projects instead of angry/confused faces.
@@bigdwook973 its not that simple his worker doesn't have insurance that's asking to put his men under the bus if the customer is used to pulling cons for free work done ive been that guy lol the legal system cost more that eating the cost.
I initially came to your channel for the car content then realized I absolutely adore your filmmaking style and sense of humor! Great video as always. you manage to bring levity and interest to the most mundane tasks. I learn a lot and laugh even more. We all also appreciate your humility and willingness to let us into the WHOLE process, failures and all. Which as we know NO project goes without SOME form of mistake. GREAT JOB!
If you're not going to replace those other existing walls or put OSB sheathing on the inside to act as shearing, you should probably retrofit them with diagonal bracing on the inside, either with wood like you did on that small wall next to the garage door, or with angle iron. You can just cut a saw kerf diagonally through all the studs and slip it in and then drill holes through the angle to attach it to the studs.
Man. I have a garage I wanted so badly when I bought the house, but havent been in it other than to grab the mower for years. Its this kind of stuff that inspires me to stop being a baby and get out there to turn it into what I want. Thanks, my man. EDIT: I also feel completely gaslit by the light switcharoo. Worth it.
We had the same problem with our garage in Houston. My contractor pulled it straight by hooking a come-along to an oak tree in our backyard and pulling it straight. Very much like what you did. Then he replaced a few rafters and reinforced some other parts of the frame. Beware, the extra wide garage door will tempt your garage to turn into a parallelogram once again. Keep an eye on it.
Don't forget the zip tape for the zip board! So happy to see we FINALLY got another installment!! keep up the great work! Tied best channel on RUclips with M539 Restorations IMO!
as someone a novice when it comes to carpentry and someone who is about to start a career in construction, I really appreciate your humility to show not just the process and such but also your mistakes and how you fixed them. It takes courage to fuck shit up and keep going and that's something everyone can appreciate.
A double wide roller shutter door would be perfect for this, no hangers required and you gain headroom on the sides. Bonus is it remains fully enclosed so doesnt get covered in grinding dust while you're working in there with the door open.
My thought was to get roller track that hugs the roof. My dad's garage has a side mounted opener and track for the door to hug the wall as it opens and leaves no overhanging obstacle.
@@LovelessAndroidunfortunately, that would require custom tracks and a spring calculated to match. That conversion is about as expensive as getting a new door, with more drawbacks.
Once again loving your humor, editing, showing the good stuff off the process, not super overexplaining how you solved relatively trivial crap for 10 minutes, love your videos M8
I hate waiting so long between episodes but it's so worth it. Editing and perfect comedic timing are what make me continue to come back lol, can't wait to see what you do next!
Ronnie, your videos make me so happy. Your attention to detail, humor, and editing style are simply superb. Thank you so much for making the wonderful content you do. I'll be eagerly awaiting the next one. Can't wait!
Your content alone is amazingly entertaining, but your editing is just the cherry on top! Love what you do dude! Cracking job on the wall/door. Looks awesome!
Ronald, that was one of the most entertaining and humorous videos I've seen in a while. Great production values and good writing. Congrats on the new door. (and not dying)
I really needed to see this. My Dad died a few years ago and left me his shop. It's huge, it's old, and it needs a ton of work. I've been very overwhelmed, but watching this makes me feel like it's time to get started. Great content as per usual 👍
Keep the water out from above and below the building and make sure the electrical installation doesn't self-ignite, and the rest probably isn't going to be time-sensitive. Good luck!
@@dratilhelvetedotlol Those are actually my two biggest fears. It's got old electrical, a leaky roof, and it's made of wood. Insurance companies won't touch it.
How is it that most youtube videos seem to be way too long but yours are always over too soon? You are an amazing story teller and I look forward to every one of your videos. Keep up the good work and good luck on the rest of the shop build!
genuinely out of every youtuber i watch the effort and effects you put into your video thats just your own comedy is my favorite , the little snippets of your self is hilarious , the other one you did in the dark when you were doing the lights was top tier lol
Your content is awesome Ronny. Love the self deprecating humour and your showing your mistakes and learnings along the way. You deserve 10 times the subscription you have. Can't wait for the next video. 🙂
Dude, I first started watching you when you bought the fiero. The amount of video skill you've gained while still keeping it authentic to you is incredible! You're an inspiration!
Absolutely love the little Easter eggs in crazy stuff with time travel and things you do in many of your videos! Ronnie being there to greet you at 2 minutes 18 seconds, priceless!
Bro, you are fucking hilarious. It's nice to see someone actually show us struggles and challenges you encounter when you work. Most videos on here are not realistic and many people (myself included) struggled to find motivation to keep on learning and trying because whenever you see a video online, they do everything perfect and from the first try. I often thought I was the problem because even though I managed to fix or do something I felt bad that I wasn't good enough like all the people you see online who do it perfectly on the first try. Thank you for your videos. As an upcoming DIY'er I absolutely love how you own up to your mistakes, how you handle challenges and instead of leaving it when it becomes almost impossible, you find the solution and overcome them and show us that in the end it was worth it. There is a lot of lessons in your videos that can be applied in life in general, not just DIY work. Keep it on man, I wish you all the luck!
Best content ever ! Funny, smart, educative, humble and authentic. Don't stop ! But please be careful with all these heavy stuff falling on your head...protect yourself !
I loved your workshop renovation videos. It's been so long I forgot about ya (sorry), but you did such a good job on the thumbnail I was like...someone is tearing down a perfectly good workshop, gotta watch that.
My torsion spring recently broke and after a little DIY research I came to the same conclusion as you. Not worth saving $200 to risk missing body parts or possibly death.
Hi Ronald, you can get roller track with a different curve angle to keep the garage door close to the roof and keep that hard won ceiling height you created.
as someone who has done drainage for years i suggest "drain tiles" for your gutters to run as much water away from your foundation if possible. and making a low point for water to run to only has to be a few cm lower it will work better than a drain cut into the driveway medium to heavy rain will flow over it and they need cleaned very often almost weekly if you have tree near by hopefully this helps so far looks like a true Carpender is at work cant wait to see how it looks fixed up
Favorite channel.. best of the best. You comic style is on another level. Love your videos, whenever I see u on my feed with a new video, i rush in to see it as soon as possible
I love the videos on this workshop build... As much as I would love to say a weekly video would be epic, as a RUclips creator myself, I know how much time must go into making these and I would rather see the content quality remain for frequency! Will be buying a T-Shirt for sure!
Thanks for the good laughs after a long day man! i logged on RUclips for something else saw your video, clicked on it and really enjoyed what your doing and your sense of humor. i feel like we are friends now.
FYI, you can also buy concrete grinding discs for 4”angle grinders at pretty much any store that sells grinding discs (hardware, Tractor Supply, etc). Just for future knowledge.
17:10 you don't have to have the tracks in BUT you do have to use a nail or screw that you put in on an angle to hold the door panels in place. Then you install the track and wheels
Seriously so proud of you and impressed with your tenacity. Absolutely love your content and can’t wait to see all the fantastic projects you get to do in your hard-fought-for garage.
You've given me so much confidence to attempt to modify one wall of my shop. It has one single-pane window that I want to replace with some double-paned Pella windows I got for free. Time to start planning for the summer!
Good job there just need to brace it a little bit and add a good rubber seal on the bottom. And you could also look into getting a company that drills holes in the concrete and adds a foamy support underneath it to bring up the concrete level to drain the water the other way
I got the notification That you uploaded right before i went to bed. and i spent all day at work excited to get home to watch this. It didn't disappoint. Your video and editing skills are amazing. and i love how you insert humor in unexpected ways. Keep it up sir!
@@janeswitzke5159 After I looked on Google I went to his PAtreon page and there is a blurry picture (I'm not a patreon) titled "Editing underway. So I'll guees we won't have to wait any longer. Thank you for your answer.
I was REALLY hoping to see your solution to the garage door tracks was going to be converting them to high lift tracks instead considering you went through the trouble of creating a cathedral ceiling.
It can look like a daunting task to replace a rotting foot rim, but it's actually not that hard to replace it section by section if you have three long jacks.
You inspire me to do this on my own one day when I get my own place! Not only does it save money but your learn new things and how to do them better along the way!!
lol I rebuilding some ones mess is all ways fun. My Dads old garage was built out of wooden 16 foot garage doors. Both sides were two garage doors and the back as well, we spent weeks trying to brace it up. Every Year we tried to replace new parts but finally a tornado destroyed it. Only good thing that came out of the tornado that year.
Good to see you continuing along with your projects. I got really excited at the sight of the Honda Interceptor in the first part of the video as my father has his VF500 still, hopefully there'll be a video on that in the future once you have your shop up and running.
There are neoprene gaskets that can be installed to the bottom of the door to exclude water. Raven is one manufacturer. Or you can get direct fix "plastic" bunding that will give you a mini speed bump at the door
If you want to help me tear down more things, I present to you... a cool shirt: ronald-finger.creator-spring.com/listing/ronnies-automotive

My thoughts exactly! Ronnie, please upload more! This is my favorite channel on RUclips -for real!
@RonaldFinger What he said..! ^^^^
same
I second that
Quality requires time.
That contractor's quote for the concrete work is a "that's not worth my time" price to just avoid saying "no we won't do that"
As an ex carport technician, please consider a few things to ensure your safety:
*Put in stoppers at the end of the tracks, there's a risk that it flies out the back if you open it overly enthusiastically.
*Install a horizontal brace from one track to the other at the end of the tracks that keeps the them from drifting apart - which would possibly dump a door onto you or your current project. The angle iron will work to fasten it onto, just have it as low as possible while making sure the door clears it.
*Brace the door midway up as well, as wide doors tend to sag while open and tweak the rollers. At best, it's not going to seal properly from weather, at its worst it will pull the rollers out of their bracket.
Nice additional thoughts. Hoping he has more than mere drain and support issues in mind.
I agree on this specifically on struts, I always preferred to use at least a top and mid strut on overhead doors that wide
I've worked with these since i was 14, and i agree. proper quality doors comes with windbraces when they're this wide, usually in every other segment depending on how tall they are
>*Put in stoppers at the end of the tracks, there's a risk that it flies out the back if you open it overly enthusiastically.
can confirm this, almost killed my little brother when my dad gave it too much force and it came off, missed him by inches
Mans loves redundancy so much he measures twice AND cuts twice
Lmao😂
Always gotta drop everything I’m doing whenever I get a Ronald Finger video notification. Easily one of my favorite creators on the platform.
Agreed I should be studying for a final, but instead Ronny time!
Ronnie is a Master and leaves you always wanting for more. ummm that just sounds wrong
Even more agreement! I particularly enjoy Ronnie's editing - always colourful :)
I agree, I should be in the bed and I saw this pop up and just had to watch it. the best!

Glue and nails is even stiffer
Could it help to also add some OSB to the inside? Seems like that would double the shear strength.
@@steveschannel4759 yes you can also do that

Here's to hoping he has much more in mind, aside from drainage and rotting wood. I was expecting an entire new building but, this is a start.

My torsion spring recently broke and after a little DIY research I came to the same conclusion as you. Not worth saving $200 to risk missing body parts or possibly death.
Yeah, I saw the damage mine left on the wall above the door when it went and decided I wanted nothing to do with that.
Hi Ronald, you can get roller track with a different curve angle to keep the garage door close to the roof and keep that hard won ceiling height you created.
I used the same ratchet strap trick on my 12x8 shed. Those little guys deserve a raise.

I'm surprised you didn't get angled garage door tracks so that the door when open would be parallel/flush with the roof after all that work.
Would be great but it takes a whole different spring solution to balance it out.
@@jonasthemovie But would it be worth it ?
Yes ;)
@@firefly2472 I would do it
Especially if you want a lift in there.

Amazing comic timing. It's an absolute joy watching your videos.
If you are insulating use plywood sheathing for the back wall to prevent the garage to go out of square.
Good job there just need to brace it a little bit and add a good rubber seal on the bottom. And you could also look into getting a company that drills holes in the concrete and adds a foamy support underneath it to bring up the concrete level to drain the water the other way
it’s never a bad thing to be redundant as long as it’s never a bad thing to be redundant
Dude it's been 2 months. Even if you put out a 5-minute video that says hey. I'm still alive. That would be awesome.
stuff like this gets me hyped to work on a trailer I have sitting out in my yard
We love everything you do Ronald!
Omg I love your editing style it's always so much fun to watch your videos!
What a rollercoaster that was. Can't wait for the electrical, insulation, wood repair.... everything else basically lol
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Literally every bit of it. Keep killing it man!
Closed cell spray foam will add tons of rigidity to the structure. Also if you sheath the back wall inside with plywood it will help too. 😊
I got the notification That you uploaded right before i went to bed. and i spent all day at work excited to get home to watch this. It didn't disappoint. Your video and editing skills are amazing. and i love how you insert humor in unexpected ways. Keep it up sir!

How did i miss this episode. Great build Ronnie. Loved it. It brought me back to learning when i did my garage doors on my own.
I was REALLY hoping to see your solution to the garage door tracks was going to be converting them to high lift tracks instead considering you went through the trouble of creating a cathedral ceiling.
I had fun watching this... An awesome "How to" with a comedy side.. More videos like this is needed. Thank you
It can look like a daunting task to replace a rotting foot rim, but it's actually not that hard to replace it section by section if you have three long jacks.
You inspire me to do this on my own one day when I get my own place! Not only does it save money but your learn new things and how to do them better along the way!!
How did I miss my dose of Ronald-isms five months ago?? More please, Mr Finger...
At first I wasn’t gonna watch this…Then I previewed it and well holy crap what a good video on this garage repair! Just fantastic in every way!!
Came here for the car videos, staying for the workshop building videos 😂
lol I rebuilding some ones mess is all ways fun. My Dads old garage was built out of wooden 16 foot garage doors. Both sides were two garage doors and the back as well, we spent weeks trying to brace it up. Every Year we tried to replace new parts but finally a tornado destroyed it. Only good thing that came out of the tornado that year.
kid named finger
This guys a genius, the most entertaining style of video ive seen in a long time
your kinda cool iam gonna subscribe can’t wait for you to finish that 280z👍👍
Comedy at it´s best! I love it. 🤣🤣 And a pretty good job done by a layman. Thumbs up, Ronald! 👍
Ronaaaaaaldddddd!! Where the heck are you, man? Is everything okay?
Good to see you continuing along with your projects. I got really excited at the sight of the Honda Interceptor in the first part of the video as my father has his VF500 still, hopefully there'll be a video on that in the future once you have your shop up and running.
I do appreciate the mild comic gaslighting.
There are neoprene gaskets that can be installed to the bottom of the door to exclude water. Raven is one manufacturer. Or you can get direct fix "plastic" bunding that will give you a mini speed bump at the door
