This is Ep. 8 of the off grid build. This structure will serve many purposes which will probably change throughout time. For now it will serve as a both a place to stay and play. In this video I make two steel truss style headers to create the clear span for each side of the building. This will allow the loading of logs onto the sawmill. I also stand the posts that will support the roof after trimming them to size to fit into Post Protectors which ensure the preservative stays in the post and is a 100% barrier between the posts and the ground. More on them later. Standing the posts were tricky at first but then I got the hang of it and things went a lot faster than I thought. Up next is getting the trusses up and the start of framing the roof. With this building taking a while to build I keep coming up with more ideas, which equates to it getting bigger and bigger. I'll talk about my plans in more detail in the next video.

does that protectctor have a cap at the bottom so it wolnt start rotting from the uncovered bottom
Loved the music but mostly I love watching your creative genius at work.
Great display of ingenuity getting those posts in the ground! And props to your suspenders, they gotta work overtime when you're cutting on the ground
You are a man of many talents! Well done figuring out how to lift those posts. Busy, busy, busy you are. A legacy is what you are going to leave behind for your children. May GOD continue to pour his Blessing upon you.
Very impressive truss. Massive undertaking, much respect to your workmanship.
I felt the same way. Made me tired just watching.
YES. When I am working alone sometimes I need to do impossible things like install giant heavy posts. I always figure out some way to do it. Love your commitment - don't let the internet ninnies say anything about your methods. Sometimes it just needs to get done.
Same people complaining are the ones that will pay me to come to their house and do this very same seat of the britches type work. Hypocrisy is what drives the United States of America.
My father, who just passed, played that first guitar piece all the time. Francisco Tarrega. Love it
Hard-Worker...Long-Hours...ENJOYED!
Posts in brackets on concrete piers is definitely my preferred way to do a post frame. No wood in the ground.
Yeah I'd like to hear differing opinions since I too thought that was the best way to sink a post.
Wow! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤗🤗🤗 I could feel your pain..joy and sheer determination and you still video it for us to see THANK YOU! 🙋🏻♀️🇬🇧💕jane
This build got bigger then I ever thought
I about commented the same thing.
I vote this one as your best musical accompaniment. Impeccable! Outstanding! And you're still making us laugh, which is important. You are quite the inspiration and I thank you for all your labors on both sides of the camera! Happy Easter!
Wow!!! It takes a lot of ingenuity and skill to pull off what you have just done all by yourself. Congratulations!!!! Good job!!!!
Never let it be said that you're not as graceful as a ballerina. Fine work and ingenuity young man👍🏾
I left a comment on your video a few years ago. I said how I wanted to do this kind of work, but I didn't know how to start, or where to learn. And you got back to me, and gave some great advice.
Well, I got my carpenters apprenticeship. I'm about 4mo in at this point! I can't tell you how much you inspired me to go for it. It's hard being an apprentice, but I've learned so much already. I never would've gone so far without your videos. I've learned so much by being a viewer that I'm actually pretty well caught up.
Great job and I know how it is setting very long post in a deep hole. It's gonna be an awesome sawmill building. You did a really good job welding too.
That was fun to watch - I love your sawmill and the way you work. Getting that first beam combined with your ladder work - that was fun to watch. Be safe Amigo.
This music was absolutely delightful. Thank you.
Great tune at 7-10 min 😊 Enjoy watching your skills...thanks for the videos.
What a treat, watching you build and listening to amazing music as well. Damn fine job James. Cheers from Scotland🌱
Thank you
Project is looking good. You're a working machine. Look forward to more videos
Man I wish I had been in on the creation of these post protectors. Talk about a genuis invention!!!🤑🤑🤑
Curious why you didn’t fill the hole with concrete after you put in the posts?
I’m going to start calling your the ‘precious metals man’: nerves of steel, balls of brass and a heart of gold.😊
Even at 40 minutes, I feel like this drastically undervalues the amount of work that went into the fabrication/building you did here. As someone who's currently laid up and living vicariously through your progress, huge props for the dedication and hard work :)
It took about 3 days, 4 really just to make the first truss. Spent a day just bring the wood and metal. Videos make everything look a lot quicker and easier than it really is.
Nice work. I wish I had known about those post protectors when I build my recording studio/editing suite next to my house. 24x16 with a 24x8 add on room down one side. Took a year to build by myself with help only on the roof. But at 75, what once was child's play requires a little more caution now when working at roof heights on metal. Just takes longer than it looks like most of the time. Standing those posts was like raising mini obelisks lol! Good job of just getting it done my friend!
You did that at 75?! Wow! So good to hear, given that I'm turning 66 soon, this gives me hope. Thanks for posting this!
@@mharper6877 Never let the entirety of a project discourage you. You only have to worry about what the next step in the chain is and keep putting one foot in front of the other. That's how they built the pyramids. One of them (at Giza) took 20 years. But then, they had to stack 2.3 million stones weighing about 2.5 tons each, though some were between 25 and 80 tons. So he had to call in some help lol! One day at at time, sweet Jesus! And of course these days we have youtube "university" to help us with what we aren't sure of.
I loved watching you learn the best way to stand up the posts. Very impressive one man operation. In the future though, please wear a mask when pouring concrete. That dust is going to react with moisture, including any in your sinuses and lungs. That is very bad for your health.
Excellent work!
One thing: Pressing the drill next to your thigh is a HUGE safety hazard. That bit sliding out into that artery in your leg will kill you pretty quick. Keep up the good work!
That's why you centre-punch before drilling into metal :)
I must say @Homemade Home , you have excellent taste in music. Gymnopédie made me nostalgic for the days when I could still play piano. Unfortunately the fingers don't cooperate like they used to.
I'm not saying I'm good at picking music or know anything about it but I do spend a lot of time choosing it and I'm not afraid to pick some odd stuff.
You're an inspiration. Keep up the good work!
I know you haven't had time to watch it yet!
@@homemadehome5575 He just fast forwarded through the boring stuff... Just kidding!! Love your videos
Set it on 100x?
@@homemadehome5575 well, it's always inspiring! So he's not wrong lol
Fantastic job all the way around!!! Those post sleeves are great!
Selection of music is phenomenal. Enjoyed whole video. Greetings from Poland.
the sims type music at the end was great, its like you were in creative house builder mode😂
Nice! I can almost feel the weight of those pillars. Can't wait for the next video!
I'm loving the eclectic music choices; had me wondering where and when I was.
A great end to a long day in South Africa 🇿🇦 🙌
Great start here in East TN.
I'm so jealous of your dirt. I am sitting on solid rock.
Definitely not solid rock but some of the holes where tricky,
Major respect to you for your ingenuity and perseverance on this build. Looks like it will last a really long time. 👍😁 You keep crazy hours! All the best. Peace and good fortune and good health to you and your family. ❤️ 😃
Nice work, H.H. and good to see you back in action. This vid feels more like your first ones and the running at the end is signature you. Haha. Thanks Policy Genius, this channel is well worth the sponsor.
You do good work, it makes me tired just watching you. Thank you for sharing this build with us.
You still impress with your dedication, focus, and ENERGY! Another job well done.
WOW, that was quite a job!!! That's all I can say...WOW!
A man and his tractor.
I totally forgot about this project, lol. Thanks for the video :)
I didn’t know you had welding skills, that’s great.
Suddenly, looking for help to move the picnic table seems embarrassing! Great job!! DD
Nice welds, something i defiantly need to work on myself. Always enjoy your content.
basic welding of medium thick stuff with a wire welder isn’t that bad. you get a hang of the movement and the way it should sound and look. it’s enjoyable.
Love all your videos on this channel! It's hard work all the way around.
Hands down one of the best videos you have ever released! Bravo!!
I wanted to end the video with hanging the trusses but this had to do. I really liked the progress made. The next video should be even better.
always waiting for you to publish your videos .... I love to see them .... and congratulations on your work...!!!! i love this job .!!
I just love your humor and your awesome video's! Thank you! 👍😁👍😁
Acrobatic! Love the music. 😃
It is nice that you can use the wood on your own land to cut and form any way you see fit because you made the investment in a commercial grade sawmill. I found out that you can have wood inspectors to grade your lumber just like the big box retailers.
You simply amaze me , well done getting those poles in 😀👍
I love your progress and really enjoy watching the accomplishments from project to project. What amazing stamina.
Really impressive!
You have the skills. Glad to see you painting your finished metal work. Hopefully this building will be there for your grandchildren. I think I would have used a sealant on your posts but what do I know. Love watching this channel.
5:52 I can't wait for you to start a series up on your farmhouse!
it will be soonish, i’ve already started filming
Looking really good. 😁😁
Fantastic work well done its looking amazing. God bless from Australia xxx
Great job. Loved the music.
This man proves that common sense goes a long way .............
Love your choice of music.
Wow! What is this guy doing now?! Amazing to watch him work! Always great video content.
Great job!
Thanks for sharing.
Ya done good! Two thumbs up. 👍🏻👍🏻
congrats, really coming along
another excellent video
Aaah, now I know how they built the pyramids!
I'm not comparing what I did to the pyramids but I have always been surprised that they are such a mystery to people. 1000s of people working under the threat of death for decades can get a lot done.
Do you ever sleep? You work so hard! 👏👏👏
Yes sir, I go to sleep late but I get up late....I stay in the bed until I feel like getting up.
@@homemadehome5575 - That's the way to do it.
that was a lot of work
Excellent
7:43 Nice burn.
I love watching, and you are awesome, but, I am totally exhausted from this! Take care, see you soon!!
Rest up.
So cool.
There are treated members of wood designed specifically for immediate ground contact with no opportunity to dry.
Pressure treating has a varied scale to deal with different conditions. Right tool for the right job
These posts are treated for industrial/agricultural use, a very high treatment. Over time the treatment leaches into the soil and given enough time even the most heavily treated post succumbs to rot. I never worried about it till recently until looking into this project and after seeing very nice barns rotted off at the ground, I checked some posts that I had access to that had been in the ground about 10 years and half were rotted. I was floored. There's many variables that can lead to it happening, but the long in the short of it is break ground contact and you won't have a problem. The post protectors do that, regardless of type and level of treatment.
UC1 - Interior, Dry
Wood used in interior construcƟ on not in contact with the ground or
foundaƟ ons. Such products are conƟ nuously protected from weather
and interior sources of water such as leaking plumbing, condensate,
pools and spas.
ApplicaƟ ons - Interior furniture, construcƟ on furnishings, millwork.
UC2 - Interior, Damp

construcƟ on that allows water to quickly drain from the surface.
ApplicaƟ ons - Coated millwork, siding, trim.
UC3B - Above Ground, Exposed
Wood used in exterior construcƟ on and not in contact with the ground.
Materials do not require an exterior coaƟ ng, but may be fi nished to
achieve a desired aestheƟ c appearance. For Commodity Spec. A: See
Note 1 under UC4A for sawn components that may be physically above
ground but that are required to be treated for ground contact. This
includes sawn components that are diffi cult to replace and criƟ cal to
the structure, or that may be exposed to ground contact type hazards
due to climate, arƟfi cial or natural processes or construcƟ on.
ApplicaƟ ons - Decking, railings, joists and beams for decks and
freshwater docks, fence pickets, uncoated millwork
UC4A - Ground Contact, General Use
Wood used in (1) contact with the ground, fresh water, or other
situaƟ ons favorable to deterioraƟ on; (2) used above ground but
are diffi cult to maintain, repair or replace and are criƟ cal to the
performance and safety of the enƟ re system/construcƟ on; or (3)
used above ground but may end up in ground contact or are subject
to hazards comparable to ground contact due to climate, arƟfi cial or
natural processes or construcƟ on.
Note 1: The following sawn components for exterior above ground use
shall be treated to Ground Contact UC4A or higher requirements:
a) When there is a reasonable expectaƟ on that soil, vegetaƟ on,
leaf liƩ er or other debris may build up and remain in contact with
the component.
b) When the construcƟ on itself, other structures or anƟ cipated
vegetaƟ on growth will not allow air to circulate underneath the
construcƟ on and between decking boards.
c) When components are installed less than 6 inches above ground
(fi nal grade aŌ er landscaping) and supported on permeable
building materials (e.g. treated wood or concrete).
d) When components are in direct contact with non-durable
untreated wood, or any older construcƟ on with any evidence of decay.
e). When components are weƩ ed on a frequent or recurrent basis
(e.g., on a freshwater fl oaƟ ng dock or by a watering system).
f) When components are used in tropical climates.
ApplicaƟ ons - Fence posts, deck posts, structural lumber, joists and
beams for decks and freshwater docks, Ɵ mbers.
UC4B - Ground Contact, Heavy Duty
Wood used in contact with the ground either in severe environments,
such as horƟ cultural sites, in climates with a high potenƟ al for deterio-
raƟ on or in criƟ cally important components.
Typical ApplicaƟ ons - Permanent wood foundaƟ ons, building poles.
VERY NICE THE POST PROTECTORS. YOU HAVE TO MAKE A 💯% SURE NO WATER IS COMING INTO THEM OR YOUR POSTS WILL EVEN ROTT FASTER. BE WELL. 💪👍🔨
Water isn't what rots things, think of a log that gets pulled up out of a river after 100 years and there's no rot. You need ground contact (micro organisms) and oxygen. With this project a roof and walls will be around the posts.
The natural background sounds are way better than music overlay.
Ahhh. your "not very good welds" are looking good to me, and better than mine!
You can preheat the metal with a torch to help the welder as well. I've gotten by on some projects this way. Also just helps in general on thicker metals
Cool! :) Musicals are best. Cogitating on Cheap Houses. You are a worker! Thanks for sharing. What State do you live in?
Aren't you worried about water coming in to the top of the post protector and rotting out your wood?
Great video btw! It's nice to see an update on this project.
It's temporary, there will be a roof over them. Also, it's just water, you need contact with soil where micro organisms live, also, they are treated.
@@homemadehome5575 Oh I see. Thank you for the reply.
Great video! Awesome looking building. love your attention to the details. i just subscribed to your channel and hit the bell thing too. i look forward to your next video! :)
Nice sawhorses. They look ten-fold better than the construction guys make. I have wanted to make some of those. Maybe you should have rented a Telehandler to get those 20 ft poles in the ground?
great video on the post protectors. I've seen them and am interested in their performance.
I think they are perfect. I see no fault in them and they make using parts a no brainier.
Awesome.
another channel I watch, 23rd Garage, does a lot of welding, and they often talk about not welding in one area too much because the heat will cause warping. They instead jump to another area to give the heat time to dissipate a little. Not sure how that works in practice (I'm not a welder), but maybe someone with specific experience can chime in with a confirmation or dismissal.
So you own all of your equipment? I like how you dumped all of the cement from the tub. 😂
Yes, what you see is mine. If you mean is it financed, no. I saved and bought it. Doing the work i do there is a tax component to the purchases but it’s still a lot of money to come up with even if it’s “advantageous” tax wise.
@@homemadehome5575 well at least you get a tax break. Good word, “Advantageous”
I kinda like the all over the place music selections. Could be a real long video if all you played was royalty free folk music like some others.
Never seen the post protection before.
38:25
what's that roofing crap called? bitumen? I always thought a generous coating on the ground end of a treated post with that would be effective
When you were climbing around up on top of the fork I kept thinking of the bartender from The Tick saying, "I think he is going to fall down a lot and die." But you didn't. :D
Just to say it out loud, doing what I was doing on the forks is a bad idea.
I think those posts probably will keep moisture in the posts.
It is going to be under roof and walls. The water alone is not going to hurt the posts, they are agricultural/industrial treated.
@@homemadehome5575 I meant to say post protectors, but RUclips glitched. :)
How did you know how to size everything for those bar trusses?
👍👍
😊
When you put that "sleeve" into the ground and it has no holes at the bottom, won't it collect rain water over time? Time will tell, I guess.
I was about to comment about the same thing - if water can get in, it will have no where to go. Yet these are pressure treated - they "should" be able to put up with staying wet all the time, just in case water gets in there and stays there. I might be tempted to seal the upper edge with some sort of silicone seal, or something?
Hope your tenant doesn’t mind tractor next to their house at 2am 😂
👍👍👍👍👍
I don't think I've ever seen welds with bolts. One type of moment connection is sufficient.
I agree that your second truss is better. Looks like you've learned a lot between the two. But then, I prefer trusses where the web intersects at a common point on the flange. Much easier to analyze.
While I don't think you need to break any cylinders, I would recommend at least doing a slump test on your concrete. It's a fairly simple test that will tell you if you stand a chance of a good strength - especially if you're using water to make it workable instead of plasticizers.
