Absolutely amazing!!! Congrats on such a major achievement. When this all began I didn’t think that you would get to any kind of roof until next year. Through grit, determination and one heck of a lot of hard and unrelenting work on your part and the team of people with you, here you are!!! Again, heartfelt congratulations.
Bravo Dan.
I love how creative you are in your filming. As if you didn't have enough to do. Thank you Dan. Well done you.
Does the wife do the editing? Me thinks so, because she never appears.
@@jamesalley7387 he does the editing after hours, as far as I understand it. The wife is not even on site
No wife lads! Single Dad of 2 boys these 2 years.
@@crannuselshihtzu5566wife has the be two boys most of the time but they separated over a year ago ,one sad Dan but they get on and Dan was still working on the old farm and bakery site after she asked him to leave.
Dan so glad you are not afraid of heights. Amazing job
Saw my first video on Friday night. Spent Saturday and Sunday binge watching 179 episodes. I went through withdrawal this morning. I'm hooked at this point. Keep up the effort.
Welcome to Team Dan & the gang!
Wow! ❤
The roof will be a game changer. Can’t believe the speed at which you’ve gotten to this point!🎉🎉🎉
Well .. there are 3 , sometimes 4 of him 😉
@@julieattard7098 Lol. x
Congrats Dan, can't wait for the roof to go up. Love and light to you all
@@dmazeau And the Chatteau's first weatherproof rooms
A cleaned out, rebricked, reinforced ruin with new floors and a new roof isn't a ruin any longer. It's a chateau re-build site with gorgeous bones and an inspiring history. Go Dan!
So happy to hear you made it to television! They know good content when they see it. I wish I could get british tv :( . Very proud of your achievements Dan, can't wait to see that roof go up.
Will book it to watch this and next week it's really good programme to watch help I've brought a village
What TV? What show? When?
@richmondskrzypinski9100, it's on channel 4 called Help we bought a village, 5 pm
just added to my list!!! Do you know if there are any other familiar faces on there we might have seen from Chateau DIY?@@catherinebarlow3079
You have an international audience, Dan, all rooting for you 👍🏻
He is getting a bit of international wood for his roofing too. Douglas Fir is only grown in the Western US and Canada.
🇦🇺🇦🇺 well done Dan.
International audience yes ... me, from Brasil, since the beggining ... Well done Dan!!!
Where is everyone from? I’m from Ottawa Canada
I am from British Columbia Canada and enjoying Dan's escapades in getting this chateau renovated!
Please wear a mask when pouring cement etc, it’s probably too late now, but I’m concerned for your lungs. You are definitely amazing at how far you’ve come. Blessings and admiration. 🥰
It makes me happy that we are 370,000 people from all over the world, that follows Dan. In these terrible times of war in the Middle East and Ukraine, I think it is unique that we have this international unity thanks to a very special young man, who is working hard to fulfill his chateau dream ❤️ Lene, Denmark
What a lovely thing to say. I totally agree with you 😊
Дякую, що не забуваєте про Україну. ❤ Спостерігаю за роботою Дена. Це ненадовго відволікає від війни в країні. Привіт з Києва, України.
Rainy days and Mondays always bring me down, except when I'm watching Big Dan hard at work!! With that we'll see ya tomorrow !!!
At first I thought you had a break from that rain, look at the size of that drill bit, well done Dan, you are getting closer to the roof!
I know, right? That damn near goes through the wall!
It’s good to see your “twin” is back helping.
Dan, you are an inspiration.🤩
Amazing how quickly his twin got in out of the rain. He must be the one with common sense. Love Dan's humor.
Well done young sir. What an undertaking. Your work solo emphasises how much support other chateau owners have. Once the site is worker friendly (which sometimes it decidedly is not!) work away or other volunteers could work alongside you. Whatever. Your achievements are incredible. 🎉 without question, a determined, courageous person. Go Dan!
Dan doesn’t work alone. Clearly he works with himself.
Your patience and persistence are astonishing! 🎉
Man, I don't know how you work in the rain 🌧️. You are the man.
Thank you for letting us watch your show.
Dan, you appear to be a very patient man. Keep up the great work...we're all watching 🧐😎🥸😳
Little tip Dan..... when cutting threaded bar like that always have a loose nut the other side of the cut if u can. Thay way if you mangle the thread with the cut you can wind the nut back out and it will re tap it.
Just a suggestion! Keep up the great work!
SuperDan et SuperDan sur le même échafaudage 😮 mais que deux bras pour tout faire 😂 bravo 👍🏻💪🏻
À demain !
🌸🌸🌸
Thank Lord you are alright!
You are my lunch companion. I do my lunch break of translating (I am a freelance translator) and watch your videos during my lunch, appreciating your enormous effort in this building. I was worried that you didn't release a video this Sunday, but now I am enjoying this new one.
He mentioned in the last one he was going to focus on this for a couple days and just catch us up this week.
@@stephjezo6470 Yes, I remember, but he ended the last one saying "See you on Sunday," that's why I got worried when there was no video yesterday.
He on the scaffolding always worries me.
Bonjour!!
I was a bit sceptical, when you started repairing that crumbling wall, but it's coming together well now, looking good!
I could watch you for hours, your determination, your talent and your way just wonderful, how you get closer to your goal bit by bit without hard and difficult work slowing you down. I will be very happy when you have a roof.
Fabulous progress Dan. I love all the people on here who leave such great suggestions, like pre drilling the steel etc. It feels like a big family with you ❤
Dan you need to get some carbide tipped drill bits for the steel and a sds rebar drill bit for the concrete . Your local dealer should have them .
Yip, also a level for drilling and an impact gun with deep sockets for the other beams. That was hard to watch😅
he certainly doesnt let the miserable wet weather deter him! What blows me away is how he works in the dark at night, all alone in a HUGE eerie space.
Brick by brick. Beam by beam.
The Roof is coming...
I always wonder how you know which jobs to do in which order when there are so many jobs to do!!! You are doing amazing with this chateau project!!! I am constantly AMAZED!!! 🥰❤️🎶🇨🇦 🏰
I am completely over this rain. Must it rain every day!
I have SO much respect for the work you're doing -- some day in the near future you'll be able to go back through the playlist from the comfort of your completed, beautiful home, and feel immense satisfaction. Not only for a job well done, but for the legacy you're building for your family and example to your kids. It's a true joy watching this all come together.
GREAT GADZOOKS, Dan! BBC! YOUR A STAR!!!!!! After Barn Raising in OHIO, I'm looking forward to Your ROOF going up! Success! 😎
Its not BBC- its Channel 4 (NOT BBC4) every weekday teatime
@@ludovica8221 for the uninformed Yanks, EVERYTHING in Brits Broadcasting reads as BBC- I stand corrected! 😎
@@gringo1723 Oh OK I see.. I spend a lot of time explaining to my elderly mother that BBC4 and Channel 4 are two totally different things anyway as its confusing to her as well
@@ludovica8221 Your addressing a Great Grandfather on this end, so Your comparison EQUATES! 😎
Good morning Team Dan ❤
Also coming in from a soggy wet miserable day down here at the bottom of the world.
Looks absolutely amazing ,what a bloody mission ..she’s worthy every painful thought …
One down 👍one to go …
See you tomorrow for noggins and things 😁🙌
🙌🫶❤️
Great progress. I grew up with Doctor Seuss books but I was wondering if you call you workers DAN1 and DAN2, and is either better than the other. You are really starting to make things look so easy, even in the rain. Thank you for sharing!
Douglas-fir is a massively tough bit of wood - it's dense, heavy, and can really carry a load. Will be a challenge to move those heavy bits of timber around and it's also a big chore to drill necessary holes. Looking forward to seeing it progress!
Congratulations, Dan! These projects always take more time than we think they will, but in the end they're so satisfying. Can't wait to see that floor go in!
I literally finished your last video and after hearing "see you Sunday" this video popped up, uploaded just 2 minutes earlier. Lovely progress on the chateau
Well done Dan you should be proud of all you have achieved thus far . I'm sure your boys will look back on the vlogs in years to come and feel very proud of their dad . 😊
Well done Dan and in the rain as well. YEP watch that prog anyway looking forward to seeing you in it. Loved watching . See yer tomorrow😘
Amazing Dan, but I'm not surprised witnessing your work ethics and determination. Well done sir!
Congratulations on the TV gig!🎉 You'll hit a million subscribers in no time 🍻 Well done 👍👍
Goodness me at the one hour mark and you have 35,780 views…your audience is addicted. Well done, Dan!
Whow you mean we will see a roof on the chateau soon. What a wonderful sight that will be. All your hard work will be saved and your darling pups will be dry all winter. Good news you deserve it Dan
God bless you in your home.your hairstyle today, kiss curls.
Congrats Dan all your hard work is paying off. Bravo, job well done.👏👏👏👏👏👏
Dan...Always a thumbs up on your videos in Chateau Speak... Way Up!
Great work. I will no doubt holding my breath as the roof goes on. You are a diligent hard worker.
Yes. And as the roof goes on, hope Dan follows Nick's wise safety harness example, and finds his old harness.
Put the nut and washer on the stud before cutting, save grief if you have a dodgy cut
On one hand I agree. On the other that would mean spinning it the entire length (which would be annoying to do).
Will you be getting some help with the roof?
Will be interesting to watch it and the top most windows going in. Once those are in you will probably end up putting in all the lower windows and doing some simple electrical work so you have lights in each ceiling and some power points in each room that you can use.
Will save you from using so many long power leads draped all over the place.
☀🌞☀🌞Trying to send some sunshine for you Dan. Seems nothing keeps you away from getting the job done.
Will be nice to start getting a roof on!
Good Morning Dan;... Good to see you back....!
Nylock nuts do not need locktite....
So happy that it is not raining and happy to see you at work again.
Amazing, so much has been achieved. Completely overwhelmed by how far you have got and then you let us know the rood has been ordered..congratulations ❤❤❤
Your hard work and dedication to this project is amazing...congrats so far for doing such a super job to bring this once grand lady back. Cheers
Dan, as you are getting into the rebuilding portion you should hide creepy things as you put walls back together. Just in case someone down the road renovates it.
Just a tip, put the nuts on the bar before you cut them. No problem with cross threading if you leave sharp ends! Cheers
From crumbling wall, to steal reinforced! Good work 😊
steel reinforced 😮
This is a MILESTONE. So encouraged that your outstanding example of persistence and good humor, good camaraderie with excellent skilled workers is going to pay off!!!
will be really interesting to see which mansard roof structure he goes for. also hope he finishes filling some of the holes further down that are important to support the steel beams of the upper floor... the roof will add quite a bit of load both laterally and vertically, and most of that load will go through the recent steels
I suspect he's going to do a concrete ring beam on top of the existing wall, which should take a lot of the lateral load.
Your whistling of vintage Disney tunes fills me with happy.
If you really want to ensure your nut will nor come loose, deform the thread after tightening the nut. It is much cheaper and is working always.
Good To see Your Viewer Numbers Keep Climbing ……. Crack On …… You Deserve Prosperity
Woo hoo roof on the way!!!! What progress amazing bloody well done!!!!
Nyloc nuts and thread glue....yep that is never ever going to come loose! Never seen that on a house before
Well impressed that you cut the threaded rod without burring the end, so the nut went on easily and not cross thread 👍👍👏👏
Especially goggles when drilling steel shards can fly into the eye 👁️
love the video, love the video style, super peaceful and relaxing. many thanks for your efforts.
If someone is working hard, I am in it for the long haul. I am decorating my dining room at the mo. Tools were put down sometime ago. Regardless, of whether a project , is big or small, I am raising a glass to both of us.Well done and take care.🥂
The roof will be awesome, then the stairs will be awesome. Maybe an elevator!
Can’t wait till tomorrow 😊
I Love your channel I have watched all your videos. I'm rooting for you. I'm really glad to see that the roof has been ordered. Remember: Winter Is Coming.
"Noggings, floor joists and just general fun. " Yes please, count me in! 🤣 ❤
Roof wood ordered! So exciting!
Stunning to see how much drill bit you sink into that wall without going through it.
Rubber washer between galvanised metal washer and steel beam. Galvanic corrosion is a possibility where galvanised metal meets steel. Not too serious if moisture ingress is restricted or prevented, however, a rubber (neoprene) washer prevents direct contact between galvanised washer and raw steel beam.
Good Work, moving right along. Can’t wait for the Roof part, this is an Emergency!
To see a least one part of this Grand building covered would be a true Miracle!
I’m so proud of what you’ve achieved so far! Greetings from the Netherlands and keep up the good work!
Best wishes from the Pacific Northwest (Oregon) where it rains continuously at least 8months a year and everyone has an enormous Douglas Fir in their backyard🎉!
Great progress! Try threading a bolt on to the threaded rod before you cut it, you can then turn the bolt off again and it will clean up the thread at the cut end.
I can hardly wait to see what the roof will be like. I know that the rain has caused you some issues, maybe with the roof on it will get a lot better. You staying committed to the purpose is an awesome challenge!
Geez...but the roof and noggins...what fun, I sure hope the rain stops soon, sunshine just makes the day go better...cheers...!
Glad you took some time to work and not worry about filming in that awful weather. Lots of progress - looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.
Wow! Such progress in spite of the weather not holding you up! Such determination! Hope the rest goes smoothly for you. You deserve a break from these unrelenting struggles that have been thrown in your way. Way to go MAN!
Thanks Dan.... I was getting withdrawal symptoms..... you appear to be addictive!!! Good job. Great vision and work ethic. xxx May the Force be with you. LOL Saw you on the trailer/introduction on the channel 4 programme. Well done. Fame at last. LOL
Can't wait to see the roof!
Well done You!!!!
Wow, that did look a hell of a job😮😮 I reckon that’s one of the hardest jobs you’ve had to do so far
Taking the cold water tanks out tested his patience the most, so far!?!
Good work dude 🙏
Phenomenal as always, Dan! I think this house must’ve been overbuilt in the first place to withstand the damage and still be there and you being able to build onto it to boot! So double excitement to see it at this point. I am so happy. Kudos on the TV spot.
When you put up the roof, you should put up some sort of rain water collection. Using a temporary rain/eve trough system. It could come in a window on top floors down to building the first floor, if the collection barrel filles it will just overflow and the area is getting rain anyway. As you build up, empty the barrel and a section of the eve through, keep moving and removing as you go up, when you move to a other section move the eve through to new building section.
You put the washers and nuts on before you hammer in the bolts, then screw them down before you cut off the bolts, then back up, apply the lock-tight, then tighten down and cut off and grind the bolts. That way you don’t have to deal with messed up threads. It’s more efficient.
Know nothing about renovating but RESPECT to Dan the man 💯💪❤️👍👍🤩🌟🥰
Number 1 saying happy Monday ETRF fam! Closer to the roof and with any luck the rain and wind stay off this week…
…And I spoke too soon… Poor Danger Dan is drenched
Great work, a couple of suggestions....if you have another section of that scaffolding, could you put it in on the far side of your existing set up? I'm worried you could trip over your tools on the platform and you'd have nothing to prevent you from going over the side. Also, whenever cutting a bolt or threaded rod I usually put the nut on first. You can then back the nut off the bolt and it will usually remove the annoying burr that gums up the threads. Maybe not so useful for this job because there's no real need to remove the nut, but good general practice that can save time and frustration!
So much progress. We all looked at that jungle inside the building and thought -no way.
Bravo Dan, you are close to raising the roof! Extraordinary progress since the start of the project! 🙏❤️
Wonder if Dan has ever seen an Amish/Mennonite barn raising? He would find it quite interesting...quite a feat! All hands on deck. Hope he gets help with the roof. Better yet, hire professional roofers, if his funding allows. We'll see what Dan does.
Take care for your eyes when mixing the things like cement or so, its very bad for the eyes !
So glad you have your identical twin helping you today. I just wondering how you two got a long ?
😄
Gréât job!
To stop the bolts backing you can “tap” the thread. It’s a trick to keep keel bolts from backing off!
Hi, I am Dan and if you met me a decade ago, you would not believe who I was. A good young man with dreams. Well the hell with it all…. I’m going to restore a chateau. No problem. I myself cannot stop watching. This has been a wonderful trip buddy. Stay safe and thanks for sharing.
Glad to see you side by side with your twin! Wouldn’t that be wonderful 😊😊great job Dan we can see the light🔦coming thru the tunnel 🤗
Well done mate, what a mission
Couldn't have said it better.
Hope he doesn't forget us all when he's famous in the UK😅
@@daisylovelock9553 I know right… we know where he started😁
Been watching for about 3 months now and I’m hooked!
Pro Tip: Keep the nut on the all-thread BEFORE you cut it so you can unscrew it and prime the threads. Sometimes you won’t be able to thread the nut back in!
See you tomorrow! **Fwoooopth**
Looking good. Just a tip, if you're hitting in all thread then screw the nut onto the end. This saves mushrooming over the end of the thread. Great work!!
Well done👏👏 amazing perseverance 💪
You looked so relieved when you finished that job Dan 😂❤
