    Looks awesome! I would highly recommend tying the bottoms of both steel beams together in a least three places to create a true box truss. This will resist lateral forces when the bridge has live loads imposed upon it. Great job guys! 👍👍🔥🔥

    • @SpinoneJR

      i think a big concern would be the flat boards on the beams holding moisture, shouldve put some pieces between the wood and the metal so air can get in

    Might have centered the top boards and left them long, saved cutting them and even though they weren't exactly the same length the unevenness would have given it that rustic look.

    Hey Brock! Great “re-purposing” as we call it here in Oklahoma ~~ can you tell us what fasteners you used to screw your runners to the I beams? We’re building one at our steam engine show grounds in Pawnee~~ thanks for having such a servant heart!! Edit*** read your replies about pre-drilling and self tapping screws~~ hats off to a worthy build!

    • @RockhillfarmYT
      @RockhillfarmYT  10 месяцев назад +1

      They used a really large diameter, self tapping screw, but they still had to pre-drill the holes
      I remember that much but I didn’t buy them and I wasn’t the one running the screws so I don’t remember exactly what they were

      You didn’t miss it, we didn’t really show it in the video. Not on purpose.

    I think this project is awesome! This brings me back 40 years when my brother and I helped our brother-in-law to build a shed in his backyard. (“Full disclosure” i’ve had two martinis. 🤪) We built it in a day and it lasted for 30 years, just about the time he decided he couldn’t mow the lawn anymore. We celebrated with a fifth of the apple jack (70 proof) I made the winter before and our wives were pissed that we weren’t able to do anything after that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 My brother and I have to pay people to do the things we used to have fun doing and our brother-in-law is in a nursing home and can’t walk or feed himself. 😢 Live in the moment, there will be a time when you can only watch life go by. ✌️🫶🙏
