    As I grew up without a father, it's nice to watch your videos to learn some practical skills. Much love from Sweden

      I know that feeling well, Robert. I grew up the same way. My dad would stay gone 14-15 hours a day building his little business empire and then try to guilt trip all of us (mom and 4 kids) about how he was just killing himself to provide for us when we never spent 10% of the money he made. His efforts were 90% for the aggrandizement of his own ego.

    With 3-10x10 beams and an evenly distributed load in the center of the span the bridge will support 9,924lbs. At no point will you have that much weight in the middle of the bridge because the wheelbase of your truck is over 12ft. In my field a safety factor of 2 would be used which would put the max capacity of the bridge at 4,962lbs. This is also not considering the strength that the decking will add to the bridge itself once installed. In my opinion, you should construct the bridge with 3 beams to ensure adequate strength as the wood degrades over time. It will also provide an even distribution of the load if equipment with different wheelbase widths are crossing the bridge. I hope this helps!

      @scooter041031 7 лет назад +7

      +Ryan Schmidt At min a 6x12 is needed to carry that kind of load you are talking about.
      +Bushmaster B I agree the mane beams need to be near what is actually the vehicles track width wheel base is length but I understood what you meant.

    • @DEADB33F
      @DEADB33F 7 лет назад +28

      I'd have just installed a culvert (and have done at my place in a similar situation)
      You can be in & done in an hour or two and it'll support pretty much whatever weight you put on it.

    My almost four year old daughter has been struggling with sensory issues and typical preschool behavioral issues. My patience has worn thin and my stress sky rocketed.

    @TheHerbConnoisseur 7 лет назад +20

    You know.... It kills me to see really stupid people, famous with television shows like the 'kardasians' and such... this channel is a prime example of a perfect television show, to show people what a solid, good family reality show is. A vast majority of society needs to watch your channel and take notes. It truly warms my heart to see there are people left in this world who see the true importance of teaching the younger ones REAL skills... Jack is and will continue to grow up into quite the skilled gentleman just like his father, because of the way he was raised. More fathers, and parents in general need to spend time with their kids and show them things like Mr. W... I've met 25 year old "men"... who dont even know how to change a tire!... or even start a damn weed whacker for goodness sake! This is the problem with the world today... If people raised their kids like this man, the planet would be such a different place... God Bless you, and keep up the good work!
    P.S It's also very nice to see these young men commenting below, showing their interest in such a channel, and really wanting to learn such things, Not some video game channel, or stupid fidget spinner video or something, it's a nice change of pace!

Ive seen many old videos and new ones and I just am amazed at it all. One day I want to do all the things you do, like making a homestead. But at the time i'm only 16 so that will have to wait.

    @jackkant2697 7 лет назад +1

    Hi Cody, I'm sending some praise your way. My parents were not teachers, they were good providers, but expected kids to know practical skills on their own. I never understood that. We have 2 sons and I've always done my best to teach them the basic skills needed in life to maintain a home and equipment. Watching you with Jack gives me a warm feeling of what parenting should be, teaching, playing, caring and loving. These days I fear this is missing from many homes. It is sad.

    I remember building bridges on the ranch as a kid in Montana. Serious work, and always made them stronger then needed, remembering that we often pulled loaded hay wagons and sometimes a combine across them. Some of those bridges are there today, and still strong and serviceable after nearly fifty years! Jack will remember this day in the days and years to come when he drives over it, and the time you shared together.

    Very encourage by the relationship that you and Jack have. As a young newly wed father I admire the time you take to teach. With my young son at the age of 5 and I at 25, and him always in my shadows watching. I really appreciate the patience you express and seem to enjoy. I can remember learning the things and still learning things from my childhood that I am now passing on to my child. I often wonder how my father expressed such patience as you have. Just wanted to say I'm really thankful for some of the lessons I can learn from my elders even the unspoken ones. . I love the channel and everything about it.

  • @jasonharrelson83

    Cody,
    Thank you for these wonderful videos. They are just so peaceful to watch, the way you interact with Jack, and impart life lessons on him. I cant thank you enough for that. You are helping a lot of Dads out there step back and look at the way they communicate and interact with their children. I know none of us are perfect, but we can keep striving everyday to be parents, Godly parents that calmly teach and explain the reason for living our lives that way. Keep up the good work, and may God Bless you and your family.

    Glad to see Jack with you Cody a father and son together, doing what needs doing. Did the same when my dad & I added the screen porch, and sump pump. Digging a line to remove the water took math skills and determination getting grade just so. We used the line level and string method and it is still working 44 years later. Dad is gone now and when I think of the actual fellowship I developed with Dad. Afterword he said "Joe it takes a man to do what we did I'll never call you a boy again" this is his legacy to me.Fathers turn sons into Men.

    Cody, the first 15 or so comments are the reason you do this and we watch. God bless you, Mrs. W and Jack. You are doing God's work.

    I'm glad you've done this. I have a similar problem that I need a bridge for. I had an old pond that was drained years ago. They cut the middle of the dam to drain it but the elevation is two feet lower on the inside than it is on the draining side so it still holds water. It does drain some but just enough to make it soupy so I can't cross w o getting stuck.
    So I look forward to seeing your solution and maybe I can replicate it for my ditch.
    Thanks for sharing.

    It's good that you had Jack out there working. I made my 15 year old boy put up a fence with me last week. He dug the post holes. He cut the 4x4 posts. He mixed and poured the concrete, with my supervision of course. It's the best way for boys to learn to be men.

    Great video, i enjoyed your interaction with jack today, reminds me of my father's teachings with me (passed away 1.5 years ago) brought back a flood of memories of me working with him on tons of projects. looking forward to the rest of this one, looks interesting.

    Like these type of videos mixed in every once in a while. Thanks for just letting us tag along with you and Jack today.
    I'm an engineer, so I can't stop myself. However, I don't have a lot of time right now to do the actual calculations. For someone else who does, I found a great reference on the tensile strength of fir vs. moisture content. It's "Moisture Content and Tensile Strength of Douglas Fir Dimension Lumber" from the US Forestry Service. Research Paper FPL-RF-497. Good luck!

    Hey Cody, have others have mentioned you shouldn't use a 10x10. Moment of inertia (a very important calculation when dealing with beams) is (1/12)bh^3. Therefore a 10x10 is 833in^4. Where as a 7X14 (basically the same area) has a moment of inertia of 1600in^4. Twice as strong with the same amount of wood!!!

      He needs a small tank, say a PKz IV Mod H with the infield skirt modification and a 75mm cannon. Okay, I had a bad childhood, I dreamed of armor.

      Nothing wrong with a KV1 either, they really gave the germans problems early in the war. The T34-85 is a solid choice too.
