    The ‘Tree Stand’ method of lifting beams was worth the entire video. Amazing.

    I see this video is 5 years old but I just want to say it's an awesome job my friend. You have a great attitude in doing your work and darn good at it. I've just seen your boat - WOOOOOW. That's one heck of a beautiful boat. Take care and continue the awesome work. Steve

    Great Job to you Peter and your team... You guys made it look easy. I built one at my cabin and I picked up a few new techniques from your build in the event I build another one. Whether it's restoring a boat, building a structure, or rehabbing a trailer, working with your hands is always a good thing. Thanks for the videos.

    I would kill to have your life. Where you live, what you do. Working with wood, working on boats, being near the water. Building beautiful things.
    I am stuck in super ugly alberta, in a dying marriage, and worst of all due to an accident, i am now handicapped and not able to work with the wood anymore......... You are a very fortunate man. I have subscribed

  • @stanfede5022

    Enjoyed this episode very much even though it was a departure form your regular videos. Very nice craftsmanship on the carport. The way you lifted the heavy beams up to the tops of the posts by sliding them up with temporary supports was genius. Never seen that before.

  • @deankay4434
    @deankay4434 4 года назад

    Peter, this is for me, one of those videos I have too, watch, watch and watch again. I can use my imagination to see what you see, the smell of fresh timers, boards, perhaps even the tools in my hand including the vibration in arm, that feel of power & when the tool loads and struggles. Growing up on a Midwest farm, we built many things. Bridge planks recycled, using a horse-shoe magnet over every in for 12 inch nails, rail road cross-ties cut, notched and chiseled flat as finished with the block plane. Those memories allowed me to experience and live your project. People say “Stop and Smell the Roses”, but I disagree as the lumber-timber and the aroma after a large cut.
    My wife of 40 yrs, just said two days ago “Let’s build a car port”, although I had been thinking “Car Port” for weeks prior! Perhaps I invaded her seams but you Peter, have giving the energy. My mind will be elsewhere regardless of the fast at hand. I will sleep with a smile.
    In Nebraska, our footings are 4 foot deep. I saw the tar paper/water proofing material although I am not sure about the hole and bolt. I think a bar of steel (1/4” X 1”) the width of the timber thru a narrow mortise then a hole & nut. Got to think more, code dictates a lot.
    Absolutely excellent design, execution, tool usage, equipment use and the star of the show, the timbers. Really enjoyed the video, clearly spoken and you smile that screams “Hey, it’s work, but I am enjoying it” “Where’s my brew”? Construction, fabricating and finished. Something you can say, I helped built that! Retired auto tech, all brands, all repairs. Thank you!
