- FYI if you watch another video on this subject at another channel I do have 3 channels. Each one slightly different videos with different search content so more people can find this information.
If this video helped you
You can buy ANYTHING with this link on amazon. Throws pennies in the jar to the channel
thanks for watching amzn.to/37eheDG
Feel Free to skip ahead or use the control to speed up the slow talking ha ha. Sorry for repeating myself. These videos were linked together so there is repeat information.
A good thing to do after you've drilled your hole is to clear out any remaining cement dust from the inside of your hole. Removing the remaining dust with a shop vac or air hose will assure you the exact depth you need.
You did a great job explaining this build. I may build the same thing. Last time I did a metal building, the corner pieces were pricey. It has been over 5 years but 4 corner pieces 10' long were $50.
Cutting wheel and a grinder will do the job for cutting your metal to size.an i would only put one screw because more holes will just weaken your tubing, a couple of x braces would be good though. You did a great job on your build put mine up with just the canvas topper but when its destroyed i probably ut on some metal.thanks for your time
it is really strong too. I dont know if it would hold a huge snow and ice load but I think I could put most of my weight on the roof ant it would hold.
YES, YES, YES, thank you. I got a free frame from my neighbor that got damaged in a storm. Almost done repairing it and time to think of a cover. I am 66 and NO I do not want to replace it every ten years or less. How about plastic siding?
wind would take the plastic siding down. Needs to be the PBR style metal roofing material. it makes it super strong. had 80mph winds a few years back and nothing moved.
i just bought one of these 2 days ago. and its nice to know i tin on the side once the canvas wears out. but where i live i can keep the entire 10x17
Great job! I would run the roof metal panel ridges the other way for shedding snow if your in the snow zone. I’m in the process of reinforcing my portable carport at the 2600 foot elevation and have snow, wind, and falling pine tree limbs to contend with!
BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE, I WOULD CAUTION ANYONE NOT TO DO THIS. I had a harbor freight carport collapse on my car after a snowstorm. It smashed my windshield and bent the windshield frame….. total damage was $3700. There are other materials to use if you want to make a similar structure. This tubing, in the harbor freight unit, is EXTREMELY THIN. my damage happened two years ago, and in my housing development last year it happened to another resident. In both cases there was damage to the car after a snowstorm. I don’t imagine this harbor freight structure would do any better in Highwinds.
Nicely done
Good idea .... thanks for the video.... very affordable garage
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Thats a good idea with the coupler, i just self tap them together because it was a pain when the came apart.
I like the VW twins. Great ingenuity on the shed. I’m waiting to see what you used to cover the corners and your final rafters.
Temecula allows 100 sq ft. so 8' x 12.5'. For your rafters, take scrap PBR and screw it to each section, if you have extra poles, you can use them as well. Old washer has three sides you can cut up for bracing. Anything with solar electric on top doesn't count towards property tax if you go bigger.
nice with the way I built this you could almost fit a car inside that Maybe a small one. because you almost get the full 8ft inside VS if you use a wood structure you loose too much to fit a car insde and open the door.
2 For2 smart cars for sure... at least one Fiat 500. Oh wait For2's are 8' long...
Awesome 👏 Great Job !
Steel wall studs trimmed to fit walls and roof is how I reinforced mine.
Maybe you mentioned in the video but I didn't catch it, how much did you end up spending for this project aside from the concrete? A cost break-down would be appreciated, thanks
This was a great video Mike
thanks hopefully someone else can make one of these and get it right the first time. mine is perfect and bus is in it.
The metal will weigh it down pretty much long as you have some kind of anchors your good I put a joist in I used conduit and just smashed the ends and self tapped it into the metal
Why did u cut it
Very nice!!
Oh yeah 😎. What size EMT fittings? (EMT=ElectroMetalic Tubing= Conduit as in Electrical Conduit) l.5 inch or 2 inch EMT fittings? Would EMT Compression fittings be stronger/better? FYI EMT "Compression-to-Box" and only Compression-to-Box fittings, the threaded end that goes into your metal box, these threads are same as SAE plumbing threads. Remove the lock ring first, then screw the threaded end of Compression-to-box to the galvanized plumbing fitting of your choice.
Nice job
Nice
Cool
the thing I forgot to mention is that the reason I made it with these smaller poles is so you have more room inside. I can get in and out of my bus no problem in this building. a little tight but I put a car cover over it also without the door. Havent made it yet. but it should not blow off because there is only one opening.
You can buy em with the sheet metal, and the frames are a lot stronger.
If I could buy just the poles, I'd be in business... Lol. I can find the replacement tops but not the poles alone...
Look online. Craigslist, kijiji, etc. People sell them once tarp tears or buy complete garage kit, sell tarp to those same people....
How many panels did it take to go up, over and down the other side? Plus the panels for the closed end?
Will you add a panel or two to close up the front peak? That would look really good if you don't need the height for what your driving in there. 🇺🇲👍🏻
So we're just gonna gloss over the vintage greatness in the driveway?
My Shelter Logic 20x10 garage tent blew over, Imagine the damage if a car was inside
I see you started at the top so you didn’t have to do ridge vents I did ridge vent I have gravel base and just drilled out the holes and used rebar as my anchor just pounded it into the ground and the rebar has a hook on the end so it doesn’t go all the way threw they re did my road when I bought the property and moved my modular home here then they had extra tar roading in a huge pile they were throwing away so I said bring it over here I’ll take it off your hands I just moved here and need something for my driveway they filled my whole driveway for me then I tampered it down and it turned out great
How about some links where we can find these products
When you're building on a slab, how do you anchor the legs? 🇺🇸👍🏻
Metalmdimg used facial along roof edge ..or expanding foam to seal the edges of that ... project?
It does matter what you use to cut the metal them pipe cutters are great because if you use like a grinder which you can and a lot of poeple do or a saw saw and that leaves a rough edge which adventually causes rust unless you seal it with paint where you cut it but that’s a smart choice on your part by choosing the pipe cutter man roofless to you and I did the same thing as you ended up doing it for under 300 but didn’t close the walls in yet I just did the roof and the gable ends I’m doing the back this spring then I’m gonna put a garage door on it with a back man door so I can pull my truck in it and be able to work on my truck out of the elements outside I did mine in regular union corrugated metal got em from Lowe’s for 26$ a piece galvalumed or something does the job for me keep the ran and snow out of the place and off my truck then allows me to work on my truck in the winter without being cold as heck
If you don’t lay a foundation does it have to be code ?
not where I live 120 sf or less can be built any way.
Can you show what you are going to use for the corners? I rains a lot where I live so water tight is important.
yea when I find the metal I bought a while back I will put them on my guys put them somewhere I got to find them. Then I will shoot expanding foam in the corners.
Nice Job, how does this compare price wise to just buying one?
a bit cheaper and it has more space inside from the smaller pipes. Carport companies are about double the price of what it cost me.
I guess asking you if that metal roof would take a foot of snow load wd b a moot point, seeing the lemon trees in the background...
It would hold some pretty good weight I have been on top of it.
@@Mikefngarage i got a bunch of composite asphalt roof panels (3ft x 6ft) that only weigh 14 lbs each to go on top of my round top shelter; they are wavy can fit under each others edge. shd i use self tap screws like you did or bolt it right through a two hole puncture at each spot put shim under bolt head go through the tubular steel frame then put a bolt underneath to finish it. other thought i had was to use pipe hangers to go around the tubular frame instead of drilling a hole right through it to get the bolt right through the whole tubing. but i dont know if a pipe hanger (using bolts on both ends through the tile top surface then have the pipe hanger metal underneath the tubular frame and attach beside the tubular frame thereby not drilling any holes into the frame at all. your thoughts?
Hello what size emt couplings are those?
Corners need to trim
What do the corner pieces look like? Are they standard too?
Thank you, very helpful. I purchased the 10x10. Did you find a use for the tarp somewhere else? Plan to remove my tarp in future. Thank you again
Do you the concern about snow load? I'm guessing you're in California by the fruit trees. No snow worries.
What method did you use to cut the panels?
cut off wheel
Approximately where do you live? Do you get much snow?
no snow here. On my other channel I have several videos on strength tests. Had over 80mph winds and no issues. all on other videos on the other channel. I even sat on the roof. still standing strong.
@@Mikefngarage I took two 12x20x8 ShelterLogic Garage-In-A-Box frames and doubled up the ribs. I ended up with a 12x20x8 portable tarp building with a rib every 2'. I then put metal sheeting on it horizontally. I have a really high snow load here, but when I was climbing on the peak (to screw on the top sheet over the peak), it felt pretty solid to me. My past two tarp covers only lasted one year - lately we have been getting 100 km/hr wind events at least once a year and the ShelterLogic tarp covers cannot handle those wind speeds. The shed looks pretty ugly, but it should keep my firewood dry for many years to come.
IMHO, it would be cheaper/easier to build a wood built shed from scratch than go this route.
you don't have the correct edge distance for the redheads .
Would the city allow you to pour the slab bigger to allow for this. Is the 120 the building or does it encompass the slab
What size emt connector did u use?
1 inch
How much did it cost you
Great video, how much concrete did it take?
2 yards at 3.5 inches thick. I didnt use any wire mesh either because I was putting lighter vehicles in there. no need to.
Thanks
How it your rig top work. One complete PBV panel
How did you do the roof ridge? Did you just wrap one panel over the peak?
yea bends easily that direction. then tuck one under the other all the way down.
17’ to 15’ how did you shorten 2’ feet?
What is the rig cap made from ,
I live in Los Angeles. Is the place you bought your sheet metal near L.A.? Can you let me know where it's located please.. Thank you
corona virus put them out of business. I think Contractors steel supply. I am trying to buy more panels right now. but cant find them keep an eye on craigs list.
I have the 10x17 harbor freight shed and getting ready to place my order for the PBR panels how many panels would be needed?
I dont recall I think I used 9. but cant remember.
Most panels cover 3ft wide, here in the southeast u can find Sheetmetal suppliers all over for building barns, we call it barn metal, they roll it out like they make gutters with a rolling form, can get almost any length that u can safely haul, they have different gauges too 26 or 29
Ha i live in hemet
I’m looking to do the same thing great video !!
that is where I got the PBR panels. they didnt know what they were I would look up sheet metal roof on craigslist. that is where I found these guys. Was out there yesterday at the kubota dealer. nice
Ever figure out some sort of solution for a door?
yea I was going to make metal framed barn doors but haven taken the time to do it yet.
@@Mikefngarage would be awesome to see what you come up with. Really liked your mods to the portable garage
Nice. You do tend to ramble, though.
I don’t need to cut posts
What about a door?
You can keep the fabric zip up door that came with the Harbor Freight kit. I attached PBR over the stock door and it works well. The main enemy of the cheap material it's made of is UV light; I'm lucky as my door faces away from the Southern sun.
permanent
IF you appreciate the information you can use this link to buy ANYTHING on AMAZON. and it will throw some change in the jar toward the channel thanks for watching and tolerating the terrible edit on the video amzn.to/37eheDG
I'm just curious as to how much this one cost you?
okay, here it is at 40:06: 179 for the kit, PBR panels 360, 25 screws, more for the red headed screws, the concrete slab... 564 +.... very nice, thank you!
I don't see the value in this over a pole barn. This looks like a strong wind will send it to the neighbors. After fixing that you will wish you spent the extra few hundred $s.
2022 update: it now costs 3 times as much to build this. Thanks Biden!
Trump put the tariffs on steel ,
And still the dumb asses persist !
Wow, another idiot!
@Terry Thompson
Nice try. Bidenflation is just shy of 9% and that covers EVERYTHING we need to get by, not just extras like larger DIY projects such as this. Potajoe wrecks everything he touches, literally everything, so don't even attempt to drag Orange Man Rad into this.
@@terrythompson794 Trump put tariffs on foreign steel to give domestic steel a chance in our own market. If you're going to bash Trump get your facts straight.
way tooooooo much mumbling............just do it.......................... can't understand half of what you said.....
For 4 and a half minutes you leave the title in the middle of the screen is WHY I "Disliked" your video.
Other than you saying cut 6 inches 100 times..
i hope i never meet someone like u
