I just watched the latest Scott Brown video and saw so many mentions of ‘The Restoration Couple’ in his comments I thought I would check you out. Funny to see so many mentions of Scott’s channel in your comments. Awesome content mate. Now I’ve got another maker channel to binge. Better put the jug on...
I'm a old timber framer been framing for 40 years, did a 7 year apprenticeship learning how to repair and build old oak buildings all the work was done in old oak which is very hard and no power tools were used, it was hard work !! A block and tackle would be good for you, it is surprising what you can build on your own with one of these and some scaffold. Your doing ok keep it up!
Hi Tim, Skill Builder video, How to build a Timber Frame Garden Room #2 used a wooden ladder and pin system, lift one side pin it then the other till you get to the top, it might work for you 💪😉
Scott is one of the channel, along with this channel, essential craftsman, gosforth handyman and this old Tony that I will watch as soon as I can, unless I'm saving them for a treat later, but they all put a smile on my fave when I see a new release. They are my always bell channels.
@@lewisbullock3349 use to be a big fan of AvE but it got a bit boring for me, likewise I watch 10 minute workshop as the sister channel to Andy, but it does not make the 'always' notify list. Haven't heard of Marty T
Looking forward to Friday's exciting episode! I'm a Scott Brown fan too. I'm gonna mention your channel in the comments of his next 'exciting episode'. I'm guessing I won't be alone in that. 😉 Great channel Tim, love it. Thank you.
Raising the roof. 2 ideas. If you have the fram up you could lean some supports on the open side like a ramp and drag the ridge beam up it with your winch or rachet staps connected to the farside of the fram. Option 2 rock and rise. Have 2 stacks in the centre with the ridge beam on top a bit like a seesaw rock the seesaw down a gap will open up pack the gap with a block then rock it back the other way and so on. I saw a single guy lift a 20ton concreat block using this method.
evening Tim As per lifting the ridge beam.Try maybe the Robin Clevett technique he used on his garden room ridge beam.Two 2x4 or maybe larger constructed ladders either end with linear corresponding bolt holes in each upright.use a large metal pole to slide into each set of holes to support the weight of the beam as you lift it..keep lifting either end and slide the poles through to support the weight as you go.seemed to work very well for him.hope that helps.loving the build by the way
Is it not possible to lie the ridge beam diagonally across the floor whilst you put up the four walls? Then lift as high as possible in steps using the electric winch mounted on a support across the corners, resting the ends of the beam on a step ladder/trestle as you progress. Once the winch can lift no higher you should be close enough to lift the beam onto the roof plate at each end. I adopted a similar approach when replacing 22' long 9x3" joists in a previous house on my own, so it can work!
I think all the Scott Brown comments are positive dude, the fact that so many people recognised his style of music in your videos says that you share a lot of the same viewers, which can be no bad thing. As the Essential Craftsman would say “Keep up the good work!”
Stonehenge lifting technique (allegedly) is to see-saw the beam up with a central 'jenga' stack of blocks. That way, no lifting, just rocking it up, sticking another block in each cycle.
Scott brown comments were 100% compliments. Must say I'm enjoying the new style/vibe from the music that and all this timber framing. Think all these videos are making the wife nervous sincey workshop build is planned for the summer and with every video you post it makes me want to scrap the plan and build a traditional timber frame! Ha
Great work as usual. Also great to hear a shout out to SBC - this, and his channel, are the only 2 youtube I have the bell turned on for! Excited to see how you get that ridge beam up!
Wrap a ratchet strap around one end, use that over the end beam to pull the beam up as high as you can on one end, then you can push it just that little bit over onto the top of the wall at one end. Repeat the same on the other end. You could probably use your block and tackle or scaffold winch attached to the ratchet strap to make pulling each end up a bit easier. You might even get a saw horse on the top of the wall beam to give you that little bit of extra height to pull the beam end all the way up with.
Not sure I quite follow, are you suggesting lying it along the longest side and then lifting up one end or coming at the building at 90? I think the winch might work on its side as long as its under tension so figured I will get the frame all up and braced which will then give me a safe and solid anchor or lifting point.
@@TheRestorationCouple I was thinking lay it on the ground in the middle of the building, right under where it would be installed. With one end just inside the building. Strap that end, use the top of the wall beam as a pully to lift the end inside the building straight up. Then get that end of the beam onto and over the wall. Push it on enough that the other end is then inside the building as well. You can then repeat that same process on the other end so you have two ends sitting up on the wall where they belong. If you don't have something on top of the wall, you'd only be able to get it flush with the top of the wall, but its a lot less effort to lift it 30cm onto the wall than all the way from the ground.
Once the east and west wall frames up you could lay the ridge beam on the floor with 2 or 3 heavy duty rachet strap between the two top frames and underneath the ridge beam. Slowly rachet the beam up as high as you can go. If you have offcuts of beams you might be able to stack them on the frames to get the rachet points higher. Then maybe able to man handle it up in position. Hopefully that makes sence. :)
Really enjoy watching your videos, Tim. I am inspired by you. You're living your best life doing all this yourself, I'm very envious. I also applaud you for your honesty and humility regarding income; I was only wondering about your photography recently given lockdown and how you are surviving and continuing these projects. You're doing a great job! I wish you the best of luck and look forward to seeing timmy mallets' 'shed' take form.
Hi mate I’ve only just started watching your stuff and I need to say that I’m hooked, your learn as you go approach and down to earth commentary is a joy to watch. Well done 👍
Hi Tim. If I were you I'd move the scaffolding in to the middle of the concrete pad and use that to aid raising the top beams including the main roof beam. At least then you could raise them a bit at a time with support.
Hi Getting ridge beam up. Seen it but can’t remember where. Need two people. Have two ladder like structures with removable pegs, like rungs. One fixed upright at either end. You lift each end small amounts and Jo pushes a peg into a pre drilled set of holes each time you raise the beam. Great videos. Great work ethic. Good luck. Nick
Can you use your acrow props, 2 with a board connecting them, rest the end of the beam on and lift with another beam going east to West on your scaffold tower split either side and the electric winch? Hope that males sense!! Great channel, love the videos, inspired me to get back onto our house renovation.
A couple lengths of timber leaning against the frame at 45 degrees with some blocks screwed every couple of feet. Lift one end on a block then do the same to the other side going back and forth walking the thing up. Probably put a ratchet strap in the middle just as a safety catch.
I’ve used this method to lift a steel ridge beam into a house. I left 3 old trusses in and walked the steel up them. Rolled it into position on the top then removed the old trusses to pitch the new roof. Pretty sure the neighbours thought I was a nut case lifting a steel in on my own
Raise the west wall. Put the ridge beam in the middle corner to corner. Rise the rest of the walls. Then use a strap to raise one end on top and let it hang over. Then you can you a rope and pully on the east and west wall, hook under the end of the beam on the ground and raise it up to the roof. Slide in place and there you go.
How about letting winch (somehow) do all the lifting and you do the "directing" ? (I mean like - ( the winch is fixed on one of the walls/frames - winch lifts the central beam up a little, a support is put underneath, raise it a bit more support it with sawhorse, so on and so forth..)
my neighbour wants me to do some built in custom wardrobes I was thinking of using cls studs for framing it and then finding a material they like to look of and then finish the wardrobes with that, I am only a DIYer so this will be the first time doing it... wish me luck or some advise would be great thanks. been watching Scott browns videos for a little while now (since the world went to pot) and it is good content from him.
Brilliant videos you share, at 2.10 you said that you will be fixing the soul or sill plate down mechanically in the future. Can you explain your process on this please. Would kindly appreciate
@@TheRestorationCouple thanks for the reply 🙏, Yes thats what I will be doing just floating onto the 6 x 2 treated timber that I actually fixed into the concrete blocks using 16mm stainless steel threaded bar and spring washers and 2 inch square plate washers . Also rostered the square into the sills so it pulls nicely onto the concrete blocks
Okay, how can ear defenders leave idents in concrete? And also just how big is your back garden, it might just be the camera getting you into focus has blocked a wall out but your garden looks as if it has a wood platform attached to the rear door and goes on for ever.
Great work, Tim! The 'Mr. Chickadee' RUclips channel is also a fantastic source for carpentry and one-man timber framing if you haven't come across it before :) Can't wait to see it all...erected!
I managed to lift a 6m beam that was 6 inch by 6 inch up myself for a pergola using a set of a frame extension ladders and a block of wood at the other end on the ground to stop it sliding until I could get to the other end and lift that side up
put the top,cross member ie wall plate,on the uprights first,instead of trying to lift it up to put it on,then ease your bottom tenons gradually into the bottom mortises,if that makes any sense,then lift it up gradually with timbers,just like lifting the ridge when erecting a marquee,doddle
Hi Tim, hope you are all well. Ridge beam - you could rip lengthways then glue lam in place????? Thanks for sharing, Stay safe and keep up the good work. 👍🖖😎🐶🦴😺🦼🏍
I was wondering why you drill the holes sepertly and why not first slide the beam in and dril the hole in one time. Is there a specific reason for this?
Do you have a discount code or affiliate link for the isotunes ear defenders? I currently have the in ear ones but find them a bit fiddly to take in and out and they’re not super comfortable for long periods so I tend not to use them for those couple of quick cuts here and a bit of router work there when I know I should. I’d much rather something that’s quicker to throw on like the over ear version
How about build your frame all four walls. Put several boards at a 45 degree angle and use your lift that you used for your roof to drag the beam up the board right to the spot you need it to be.
Yeah thats how I had planned as the frame will give plenty of anchor for that, I'm now thinking that the beams all way round might not be so easy so probably need to rethink.
probably because I'm a cheapskate but I just put my Peltor ear defenders OVER my in ear bluetooth buds, or even wired in ear buds...still get a great sound and great noise cancellation. Granted you have to take the defenders off to access controls but 9 times out of 10 I'm doing that on the phone or ipod anyway.
Put the beam on 2 stacks of whatever and put a weight on one site that just heavy Enough that lifts the beam Enough to put a piece Underneath the beam place the weight to the other site and Repeat this Action Till The Beam is High Enough
Use aluminium tower with motor on? Raise one end of beam onto structure, motor attached to fence and pull beam from floor end? Two ladders either end, slide beam through rungs and lift up one step at a time? Check out robin clevit’s gluelam ridge beam raise (he had +4 guys 😂) Good luck? 🤷♂️😂
I'm thinking that I can actually create a mobile 'crane' using the tower and winch and use for all the horizontal beams. With the big outriggers I think it should be pretty solid. I'll experiment tomorrow. 👍
@@TheRestorationCouple I thought it was. Is it starting to go black where it has got wet?. I've just used it to make an exposed beam, featured ceiling and I had to bin a few lengths as they went black in places due to getting a bit of rain on it. Good job on those M&T joints. 😎
Acrow props of different sizes. No idea if it would work, but came to mind whilst watching. I don't have to make it work though :} Loving the vids thanks.
lat the beam in the middle first If you have 3 lengths of scaffold, lay 2 one way, lay the third the other way in tyhe middle, wrap some rope in figure 8 style where they overlap, lift the middle oto a horse, spread the 2 legs, then push the single leg to raise the frame into a tripod, tie a rope between legs to stop them spreading It's what we used to do to lift engines. Something like this guy in the middle of the vid but with the middle leg in the other direction, that will tighten the binding ruclips.net/video/sROsd8pYQiA/видео.html

BEAM LIFTING - use the scaffolding tower in the middle of the shed and car jack(s) / blocks of wood - to adjust the position
Is it not possible to lie the ridge beam diagonally across the floor whilst you put up the four walls?

You need a Paerau to get that top ridge beam lifted :)
Scott brown, yourself, and rag n bone my fav you tube watches
Strap the ridge beam to the top of the side wall as you raise it. Then it's already up there ready to just slide across.
I'm loving this project. I look forward to each episode! Better than the BBC!

Order some sand from your builders merchant's when they deliver ask the driver to lift the beam on for you give him somthing for a coffee. Andy
Big brain time
Thats genius 👏 🙌
I have to say great work! diy is the way to go but that lead work you had done was so awesome. Cheers

Yeah that was my initial idea, may still be an option but now thinking of more of a crane plan so I can lift all the beams that way.
I think it was on skill builder.
Mechanical gain to raise the ridge beam.... SNATCHBLOCK !!! Awesome bit of kit Tim, take a look.
Hi
Great job.
It’s a good idea to cut the plates at the door openings 1/2 way through from the bottom before standing the frame up.
Awesome tip thanks. 👍
@@TheRestorationCouple no worries
It took a few blunted saws before I figured that one out.
Perhaps the scaffolding you already have up might come in handy when raising?
I could swear that while he was talking about raising the ridge beam, Tim kept pausing while he looked at the scaffold tower.
Can you use your acrow props, 2 with a board connecting them, rest the end of the beam on and lift with another beam going east to West on your scaffold tower split either side and the electric winch? Hope that males sense!!

Definitely the way if I had a few people lifting together but might be a bit much for Jo and I. 😀
Depending on how your rising that long wall, you could tack the beam to that, so it looks like the top bit is double posts/beams
Hi Tim, hope you are all well. Ridge beam - you could rip lengthways then glue lam in place????? Thanks for sharing, Stay safe and keep up the good work. 👍🖖😎🐶🦴😺🦼🏍
For your ridge beam problem, have you seen the Harry Potter films? I think ‘Wingardium Leviosa’ is the levitation spell 😉
Will it fit at an angle across the base, and slowly zigzag it up on 2x4s or pallets?
I was wondering why you drill the holes sepertly and why not first slide the beam in and dril the hole in one time. Is there a specific reason for this?
Could you have the ridge beam diagonally in the building, raise it up and then pivot it onto the top of the wall plates
Yep, I guess it was the raising bit I was more uncertain of at the moment. Diagonal a good way though.
I’d say it’s a bit more than a “Glorified shed!” 😟😂
Regarding lifting that beam: You do having all of that scaffolding. Is it possible to build a ramp with it and use your pulley system?
Fursday, is the word you were looking for...
That shed is going to end up being more glorious than most houses.
Loving Scott Brown Carpentry!
The New Extra Saw Horses have really helped with the Heavy Lifting...Or should I say Heavy Holding. Almost like having a Helper. Note I said Almost

I'd just borrow a shop crane. You know, like they use to hoist out an engine from a car. It's amazing what you can do with those
How about build your frame all four walls. Put several boards at a 45 degree angle and use your lift that you used for your roof to drag the beam up the board right to the spot you need it to be.
Yeah thats how I had planned as the frame will give plenty of anchor for that, I'm now thinking that the beams all way round might not be so easy so probably need to rethink.
Tim, I really enjoy your videos! Be careful while raising those timbers.
Love watching these. Your channel is excellent.
How about use the scaffold to help get the ridge beam up.
That is one of my initial ideas, making a mobile 'crane' and having just checked the loading capacity it looks like it would work pretty well. 🤔

Looking good and beefy Tim, I wanted to ask what timber supplier you used? I'm over in Temple Could and have a small shed project coming up.
*Temple Cloud that is.
This was Valley Sawmills in Frome, if its standard stuff you need then possibly Dandos in Chew might be closest, or Keynsham Timber.

Raise one end of beam onto structure, motor attached to fence and pull beam from floor end?
Two ladders either end, slide beam through rungs and lift up one step at a time?
Check out robin clevit’s gluelam ridge beam raise (he had +4 guys 😂)
Good luck? 🤷♂️😂
I'm thinking that I can actually create a mobile 'crane' using the tower and winch and use for all the horizontal beams. With the big outriggers I think it should be pretty solid. I'll experiment tomorrow. 👍
Your Thor mallet looks like a number 3. The largest one we used to use was a number 5. This is sledge hammer size.
Keep up the good work dude🤘🏻
This building should last as long as your house!
24.33 I heard that🤭
What kind of wood is it? Sorry if answered before. Looks too light to be green oak?
Douglas fir.
@@TheRestorationCouple I thought it was. Is it starting to go black where it has got wet?. I've just used it to make an exposed beam, featured ceiling and I had to bin a few lengths as they went black in places due to getting a bit of rain on it. Good job on those M&T joints. 😎
Wish I lived near you I would help with ridge beam.
Have you got some step ladders that you could rest the beam on?
Not one I would trust that thing on!
@@TheRestorationCouple 😂😂
Acrow props of different sizes. No idea if it would work, but came to mind whilst watching. I don't have to make it work though :} Loving the vids thanks.
Isn`t there a risk that all the joints will become loose in the summer when the timber dries out?
Tends to be the opposite. Joins tighten up as it’s shrinks.
Big and orange like my head 😂🤣😂
lat the beam in the middle first
If you have 3 lengths of scaffold, lay 2 one way, lay the third the other way in tyhe middle, wrap some rope in figure 8 style where they overlap, lift the middle oto a horse, spread the 2 legs, then push the single leg to raise the frame into a tripod, tie a rope between legs to stop them spreading
It's what we used to do to lift engines.
Something like this guy in the middle of the vid but with the middle leg in the other direction, that will tighten the binding

Ratchet straps are your friend for pulling it in
Need to make a trolley thats just shorter than your sawhorses, can roll it under everything then but still have easier access to tools 👍
Great idea, why didn't I think of that! 👍 Guess it won't help me needing to hop over beams all day... not that good at limbo! 😂
@@TheRestorationCouple all this lockdown its the perfect time to practice 😅
Stick a ladder or steps at each end and do the old one potato 2 potato 😀
The piece he is holding at 16.12 is slightly curved. Is there a video of him cutting this piece to make the curve?
Yep. There is a brace video in the playlist. 👍
