- In this video, I build the forms to hold the sonotubes/tube forms and cut the rebar that I will wet set into the concrete.
My name is Darryl Darks and I just quit my $150,000 a year sales job to start a real estate business. I'm building a short term vacation rental property in Canyon Lake, TX.

also use a grinder or cutoff tool for the rebar man. Its what I used for lollicolumns. Cuts through in no time!
Wife and I recently purchased land, and intend on building an A Frame. I came across your channel at the right time!
Love the fact that your problems, mistakes and trouble solving doesn't get edited out. Makes the process seem more realistic.
Look forward to following, and learning from your experiences...
Thanks!
Nice! Congratulations on buying some land. It’s a great feat. Yeah man, I enjoy woodworking as a hobby but I’m definitely new to building an entire house. So, I’m learning, studying, and respecting the craft.
Glad you liked it! More to come!
Just started watching your series and looking forward to the build. As a recommendation, I wouldn’t be cutting the rebar so close to your truck. Those sparks ( barbs) will stick into the paint and start rusting your truck. Also, I would recommend buying some proper safety glasses. Milwaukee makes tinted safety glasses.
Alrighty, Kevin. Thanks for watching the videos! 🙏👍
Any chance I can get the A frame plan set you used for this build? looking to build one for myself!
Light weight!
Oh, you already know!! 💪💪💪 LOL
Nice Daryl, will the footing and sonotubes be poured separately or together ?
What’s up man! Yep the footing will be poured all at the same time.
Serious question!? Ive read that an A frame loses a LOT of "livable square footage" because ANSI standards say that :
"3.6 Ceiling Height Requirements
To be included in finished square footage
calculations, finished areas must have a ceiling
height of at least 7 ft. (2.13 m) except under beams,
ducts, and other obstructions where the height may
be 6 ft. 4 in. (1.93 m); under stairs where there is no
specified height requirement; or where the ceiling is
sloped. If a room’s ceiling is sloped, at least one-half
of the finished square footage in that room must
have a vertical ceiling height of at least 7 ft. (2.13 m);
no portion of the finished area that has a height of
less than 5 ft. (1.52 m) may be included in finished
square footage." - verbatim
So, did this hold true for your A frame? (If you were to sell, or get a loan, would this reduce the SF size greatly?!? From what I can tell, a 1200 sf A frame, is only considered about 800sf, according to lenders... Do you have any idea about this?! - Thanks man! I appreciate your videos, and your help for a fellow newb!
I wouldn’t know how lenders value an A Frame based on square footage. I know typically, if you do a Cash-Out-Refi, they just use local comps to value the property.
This is a vacation rental for me. I’m not trying to sell it. So, I haven’t really thought it about it.
@@darryldarks Well, Why not pull an equity loan on it, and use the funds to build a 2nd A frame? Use the rental funds to cover the loan cost. Do this each year, build multiple cabins, and then sell them in a high market! (This is my plan, lol,) - I researched it, and some lenders use ANSI standards, and some dont, so it depends on who you would look to get a loan from apparently.
@@darryldarks Fyi, if you did multiple A frames, it would be wise to put them under an LLC, then pay yourself whatever you want as a builder/manager of the LLC . If you pay yourself under a certain amount ,you pay no income tax, and the LLC avoids that amount in tax! Hope this give you some ideas! Thanks for all your advice!
What size rebar did you use?
#4, my friend. 🙏👍
