Homestead Style Lean-To | Conventional Lumber/Timber Mix Build
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 окт 2024
- In this video, I help a friend build a homestead style lean to to cover his John Deere tractor. We decided to use cherry trees for the uprights but switched to conventional lumber for the rest of the roof structure. Let me know what you think by leaving a comment. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching! 😃
I'm glad that you remembered to say "and we're going to do it right now". I noticed you treated the cherry log sections that went in the ground. How does cherry wood do untreated in the elements? As good as redwood or cedar? I also noticed that the roof supports were put on after the entire roof was completed. Why not put those one once the frame was on?
The lean to looks great. May need one on my property for storing trailers.
Hey, Jim! Didn't want to disappoint you by forgetting my catch phrase haha. I am honestly not sure how cherry will do over time but I do know it is a nice dense hard wood so I have high hopes it will last a long time. No real reason for when we added the supports... the metal brackets (hurricane ties) and angled supports were kind of the cherry on top to make everything more solid. Hope you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching! 👍
As usual, you are an overachiever and do a spectacular job on each project. Wish you were my handyman.
Thank you! 😁😁
What are the overall dimensions ?
What is the height of the tall timber poles vs the short timber poles? Thanks
Wow, you did a fantastic job. And again, I learned something new. The Woodlife Coppercoat. It should be used on posts for privacy fences before putting the post into the concrete. Always teaching us something new. Again, great job. Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year.
Awesome to hear! I actually never heard of the copper coat stuff before doing this job, so I learned something new too. Always learning! Thanks for watching!
I like how you used trees for posts. Fits in with the Homestead.
Yes! I think it gives it a really nice look! Thanks for checking out the video!
"We came up with a plan, and just kinda built it as we went..." This is sooo me. 😁
😁🤣👍
Seriously, this looks like some straight up honest work. Nicely done! With the current cost of lumber and such, was it still reasonably priced to purchase the lumber?
PS: Glad you didn't forget the "Right now..." I was about to complain :)
😁 I didn’t want to disappoint you by forgetting my line! It was not bad with lumber prices starting to come down. The roofing was a bit pricey but honestly probably comparable to normal roofing all said and done. Thanks for watching!
Great job guys and terrific job I learned alot. And I’m off to build my own
Love your videos. I'm always happy when you uploaded new content. Nice idea combine reclaimed wood from the wild 😜 I like working outside and build this type off construction when you don't need to think a lot all the time. Perfect dining it hanging out with a friend!
Thank you for that! Happy to hear you are enjoying my content! And yes this one was great to not have to think to much. It was nice. Thanks for watching!
Good work. Turned out really nice! Thanks for sharing - gives me good ideas.
I would have used longer posts and put them at least three feet deep. That will reduce the possibility of a windstorm turning the roof into a kite.
Hi what is the size of this shelter
Loved it. Exactly what I needed for chickens. Just wish i had a machine and that drill"bit" for digging the holes ...
Again I enjoyed your work and the memories. Peter and I built a Pergola similar.
But our upright were in cement filled tall plant pots. Simply because we couldn't touch the house walls or dig because of pipes.
We live in Rochdale Council housing. But we had grapes growing over.
Now we're old, you stir up the memories of 2 wouldn't be DEFEATED old folks.
Thank you
Hello The Fixer, thanks for this amazing job.
Question: what is the size of the lean to pe barn?
Thanks you made this project so simple.
Awesome! I love how you incorporated the cherry trees! I never thought to do something like that. It gives the build a really authentic look and keeps it in sync with all the nature around it. Really well done!
Thank you, Jaime! I agree, I think the cherry trees gives it a very nice look! Thanks for checking it out!
Great music, and video quality. You guys did an awesome job 👏
Great to hear! Thank you!
The chickens on fast motion are a hoot 😆😆
We need a building just like this. Thanks for showing us how.
Hope we were able to give you some tips! Thanks for watching, Becki!
Do you have to double up on that timber on the ends ?
This is what I’m talkin about. Awesome job on this.
Gonna have to thumbs down you on this one. Voice over 100%. Just kidding on the thumbs down.
How do you find it works without putting down Roofing felt first?? Do you have a condensation issue at times?
way good process , way great little cover on your property. good job.
素晴らしいですね！you’re great! I’m checking your video from Japan ;)
Mr Fixit, that is awesome job well done!👍 You gave me a lot of ideas 💡 Now I can’t wait for spring. I’m going to get to work myself! Thanks
Awesome! Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!
Never saw the square. Looks great though.
How wide is it?
Thanks
Your a good friend
Nice Build, coming from the lake effect area of indiana, I've had enough snow for ten lifetimes lol.
Good job I have to build one myself. 12x12 Simple construction practices. Got to get in the dry and shade. Good vid
Awesome build, more working and less talking, video has nice tempo and perfect selection of background music,
grinder cuts will rust. buy you a nibbler
First video I looked at for building my own free-standing lean-to and this was spot on. Thanks for taking the time to video your project!
Nice job; I plan on building one of these just a little bigger for my 2 tractors. I get some useful tips from the video; Thanks.
How far apart is each rafter?
I’m impressed what all they did with Rioby tools ,great job guys !
🤙🏾🤗
So many awesome projects on your channel! Super satisfying result
Nice video, good work. Thank you.
Thank YOU for watching!
Great job, Mr. Fixer and friend. 👍
Thanks, Jennifer! 😁👍
That turned out nice , the snow is beautiful .
Yes, Barry! I actually waited quite a while to post this because I really wanted to see it in the snow. You can tell at the beginning of the video we are wearing short sleeves and by the end it is snowing. 😁😁 thanks for checking it out!
I’m glad “you did it right now”
😁😁👍
To me its not homesteadin if your using power tools
Yeah I get that. That is why I titled it homestead “style”. 😁
Looks good
Thanks, Suzan!
Very cool 👍🏼 and loving that tractor
Perfect Work!👍. 8:26 How beautiful the clouds are swimming!
Yes i was happy I captured that. Kind of mesmerizing to watch. Thanks for stopping by!!
Man i like your voice. You should do radio.
Or Podcast
Thank you! 😁 I actually was part of a podcast for a little bit... maybe do another one in the future. Thanks for watching and for the comment!
@@TheFixerHomeRepair We have a concrete mixer, you too?
Very nice, looks like a fun and practical project.
I would have been devastated if you didn't say 'and we're going to do it..... RIGHT NOW!" : )
😁🤣
Really fun to watch. Keep it up brother!
Sweet!
Thanks for checking it out, Jaime! 😁👍
Love that the uprights are trunks of fallen trees. Makes it all look more rustic and less pristine.
This is on my list of things to do once the weather breaks in the spring. How did you make the birds mouth cuts look so easy? It looked like you didn't really have to measure them....just trace them out. Thats the only thing i'm nervous about with the upcoming build.
Same, wish I could figure this part out
I was wondering why your metal roof on the low end didn’t overlap your 2X6s?
Hey, Tim! That is just how it worked out with the lengths of the material. If we wanted to we could cut the ends of the rafters to make it a little more pretty but they are PT so they will be fine. Probably not worth the effort. Thanks for the comment and for checking out the video!
Your trolls actually showed up on site for this build 🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓
🤣😁
Many others questioned the poles in ground. If you would have used a 1' high piece of Sonotube concrete form at the top of the post hole, and then sloped the concrete to the post at top of the tube,. You would have added years to the post. You never want the top of the concrete to be below grade. Your setup will channel water between post and concrete. This could be fixed in the summer.
Thanks for the feedback
like how yall showed how to level the post on top
Lumber build due to snow
Great neighborhood work. Sides and doors mayby later.
Yes maybe! Thanks for watching!
I need one and I’m NE. Can you help me or do you have plans for this project?
Hey! As I said at the end of the video, we didn't have any real plans, we kind of built as we went. I would love to help but I am booked solid with my own projects! Thanks for watching!
Matt. You can do anything!
🥇🥇🥇
Great teamwork and looking good.
Thanks.j
Thanks, Tommy!
This is amazing, I love it.
The chickens want the worms you dig up
Yes they probably thought we were doing all this work just for them haha.
I am shocked to see you using pressure treated wood for the rafters. That seams like a waste of money. They won't see that much weather. Regular lumber would have been cheaper. But it was another great video.
I love the chicken was trying to help😂🐔
😂 I know right!? They are so funny!
Using a feld tree for the upright supports versus just buying a pair of six-by-six treated posts seams risky to me. Especially after placing the tree trunks into concrete, that will make it much harder to replace them if they rot out in a few years.
Perhaps... 🤷🏻♂️. We will see how it goes. I have high hopes. I love the look of the trees and was happy we gave them a purpose after mother nature knocked them down.
Where did you purchase the paneling?
Hey, Brandon! We got the panels at Lowe’s. Thanks for checking out the video!
Good job, when are you going to CT and help me out?
😁 Thanks for watching. If I am ever in CT and am bored I will let you know! 😉😁
Nice lean to! Love that snow. Missing the North 😔
Thanks! Yeah, a lot of people complain about the snow around here. I love it. Thanks for checking out the video!
Looks so cool.
Looks good
Great Work. Will there be sides put on it in the future?
Maybe!!
Any plans to close it in on 3 sides for added protection??
Maybe… that is up to Kevin. I am sure you will know if it happens! Thanks for watching!
Is this your music FIXER?
Hey! I wish I could say it was 😁. Maybe in the future... keep your ears open. I am sure I will say something in the description about it. Thanks for watching as always!!
Those pesky chickens are cute, love how the trees were used. 😊
😁 thanks, Lynsey!
Loved it!
Glad you repurposed the trees lost in the storm . 👍
Yes, they did not go to waste! Had plenty to pick from 😮😔
Great job
U guys done great
Thanks, L B! I appreciate it!!
Great use of fallen timber. Awesome job as always. 😀👌👍
Thanks, Carrie! I appreciate it! And thanks for being a loyal follower! 😁😁
@@TheFixerHomeRepair 😉👍
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2022!!!
Happy New Year!
Really like it, great job
Awesome to hear, Chris! Thanks for watching!
It's the perfect shelter
Thanks, Jodi!
Fantastic. Love it
Awesome to hear, Nancy! Thanks!
Nice post.👍🏼
Thank you!!
NICE JOB!!
Thanks, Tinno!!
Good work!
Thanks, Terry!
No sides? Especially in the north west. Massachusetts gets the worst storms. I live in the north east. We do pretty good too.
Yeah maybe sides in the future... As long as it protects it from the bulk of a storm. Especially rain. It will be nice to work on something underneath without getting wet! Thanks for checking it out!
I love when people use pressure treated lumber for roofing that doesn't need to be pressure treated, but use random wood for beams that are in the ground. :)
