- Title says it all, from painting steel to framing the last bit of floor this episode has it all including some time with the main floor plan and front elevation. Most of this was shot at the tail end of the cold snap when I could finally get back into and out of the neighborhood.
Thanks to all for showing up or showing back up, your support is very much appreciated.
-Jake
You exhibit the knowledge and know how of a 90 year old craftsman but work with the energy of a 22 year old apprentice. Pretty amazing! Thanks for sharing!
Can’t get over your work ethics…and the rain…and the rain….Have you always worked alone…Great work
I've worked solo for the last decade plus, it's way easier to keep the schedule full when you work alone :-)
You are amazing!
You are the best. I'm really impressed of everything you do
Thanks for the elevations overview. That was perfect Jake. Place is going to be beautiful.
Loved you flying that last huge parallam with the giant bracket into place with the crane… “like a glove”
Glad I could finally work it in, I'll keep showing the parts as they become relevant to the days task.
it is a SUPER pleasure to see your project come together with such high degree of craftsmanship awesome
Amazing work! Total economy of motion, no wasted effort! Great job Jake! Can't wait til your next post! PS thanks for the floor plan, elevation and structural sheet. Brings the big picture into focus!
Should speed up a bit now the rest of my crew is onsite :-)
Is the crane the rest of your crew? 😂
Totally :-) @@yourmother102
LOL I was wondering the same thing!@@yourmother102
Jake you are a machine! You know how to do everything and nothing stops you! Love your videos.
Thanks for that!
Hey - thanks for sharing the architectural renderings. Now it will be more fun to watch you put this puzzle together.
Those pack cranes are handy...
Lol
Nice weather if youre a mushroom...
Your prefab is only half --assembly , alignment etc ..OH MY
CARRY ON
Hey i'm a FunGuy......:-)
Never seen one of those cranes before. Looks super handy. Found the search term on google “self erecting crane” or ladybird. Who makes yours and what is lift capacity and how far extended over from base can you reach with it?
Really impressive build, really looking forward to each new installment. Great progress despite the inclement weather.
That's a pretty handy and necessary mobile crane. I was a chainer on a railroad for about 10 years.
I love that machine:-)
Of course you have your own crane..... Why am I not surprised 😂 love it man!
I was thinking the same thing
man this guy is a hardworker
You have taylor made your whole setup for a one man show. Now, I see why hiring a second hand would slow you down.
So cool.
Thanks, t's working out pretty well and I do have some framer buddies I can call if I need a hand for anything I might not have a workaround for.
This man can hustle!!!👍
A body in motion,stay’s in motion.
Very professional I’m looking in awe thank you stay around a while😎🇦🇺
the word help cannot be said!!!!! and the climatic conditions???? I admire you for your determination! good job! never give up... regards
Is it ever not snowing?
You’re doing a great job.
Love it so much keep it up as always 💘
I love those little tower cranes. Makes a job so much more efficient. Can't understand why they aren't more popular
So true, It seems silly sometimes what I use it for but what the heck? if it's set up it's never more than 30 seconds from where I need it. It truly is a sky hook. Runs off of a 20amp 220v plug on the power pole, its all remote control and it only pulls 9amps when you are setting it up which is pretty much only half of what a skilsaw uses at full bog.
@@ShredPile can't say I've ever seen one in our area. Went to Germany for a few weeks and you couldn't throw a empty beer can without hitting one. Vowed that when I build another house that would be the first thing I bought. Why didn't you just trailer it to the job site. Looks to be road worthy. Looks like a lot of aggravation to put it on a trailer
Yeah they are totally all over Western Europe and they have them super dialed now tech wise. Those axles are definitely not road worthy. It's pretty top heavy and narrow too I have plans to build a road dolly for it with a bolt on hitch for the long end. The other problem with moving it is that the front dolly swivels so it's like moving a set of doubles. I typically have a buddy move it on a heavy rollback but the counter weight and turret need to be at the headache rack end of the truck or the axles don't fit on the deck. I wouldn't of been able to land it on the pad backwards with that truck so tilt deck it was. Total PITA but what do you do? I have a F-550 with a knuckleboom on it that would be the perfect crane tender rig that would not only tow it but it could haul and load the counterweights too which could be handy on a job without one of the pettibones. That truck needs a little engine work though.....@@jimmystuckey1412
I have a short load ready mix company. That's why I don't question you working by yourself. I work by myself too and not too many concrete companies can pull that off.
Oh right on, best invention ever! We are probably similar in that we do better with more to do than less to do:-) It has a way of streamlining things for you.@@jimmystuckey1412
That crane is pretty sweet. Haven't seen one like that before. Better put some lights up top or you'll end up snagging one of those Boeing things falling apart up there!! LOL!! I was going to suggest one of those mini cranes they use in the shipyards. 360' and quite a lot of reach with a chassis even smaller than your extend a boom forklifts.
I believe you are talking about Spider cranes, I have had my eye on those for quite some time but they haven't been commonplace enough to develop a decent secondhand market yet. I could totally work one into my program with no trouble at all:-)
Love these videos, great work dude
You ROCK! Goodness!
Amazing work!
This is amazing!
New subscriber from Singapore.. I'm here to stay..
Thanks for the sub!
Hey there Jake,
Another great video! You are definitely a Jack of all trades, I think your video skills are pretty impressive as all that work you do.
So, I was curious, what’s the load capacity on that crane?
I’m sure it’s a handy tool.
Keep up the all around great work. Your channel is growing faster than most, congratulations.
See you next week, my friend.
Hey Joe! I saw your comment just as I was starting work this morning and I couldn’t seem to copy and paste from another reply to a similar question earlier today. You might scroll through the comments and look at my replies, because I think I gave information on the Crane regarding capacity and operation in two different replies. Thanks again for tuning back in and we’ll see you next week!
Never seen a mobile tower crane that small before. It's pretty darn cool. And very useful to lift those steel beams. Curious what the max weight capacity for it is. That's some pretty impressive counterweights added.
Thanks, It's amazing what it can do but it's capacity is relatively small. Max lift is 1000kg or 2200# which it will take to a 37' radius and then it tapers off to 1350# max lift at 18m at a 59' radius.
In the grand scheme of hoisting it's small but consider that a 5-1/2 x 18" x 30' glulam is only 750# it would be only slightly more than 50% at full reach. Plus, honestly when something is more than a few hundred pounds how much are you going to do with it at the top of a ladder anyway :-)
I'll need to get the mobile guy back to set most of the next lift of steel but it should go quick.
Does it ever stop raining there? Love watching your work ethic.
Next video will showcase the sun! :-)
Bonjour, super travail comme dab dommage qu'il n'y ai pas de sous titres car je vous suis depuis la France et l'on aimerait comprendre tout ce que vous réalisez, encore bravo pour vos vidéos que j'attend avec impatience de la part d'un vosgien en France, good job
J'apprécie que vous soyez à l'écoute de si loin, je pensais avoir réglé l'endroit où RUclips générerait automatiquement les sous-titres, mais je ne sais pas pourquoi cela s'est arrêté. La plupart du temps, ils sont saisis manuellement, ce qui prend un certain temps. D'habitude, je ne parle pas beaucoup, mais les vidéos comme celle-ci, où il y a de longues explications, demandent un effort supplémentaire et peuvent prendre quelques jours. Mes excuses, je sais à quel point c'est frustrant.
À la semaine prochaine!
merci de votre action et encore bravo à vous@@ShredPile
I’m very impressed with your dedication and work. Everything works well, my only concern is your safety. Looks like you always work alone and shit happens.
Thanks for that, I take nothing for granted, and I watch every step. I have one man toolbox, talks every single morning about safety, and I realize it’s impossible to identify every danger so I’m always on the lookout. Thanks for watching!
LMAO "one man toolbox talks" touche!
"right, we're going in careful today and we're counting digits at the beginning and end of every shift this week. Night shift has to count at lunch as well"@@yourmother102
Another great video, is there a machine you don’t own
My wish list and my won't ever have list are nearly the same list.....:-)
I like your videos, as I spent over 45 yrs. in heavy construction that included steelworks & a lot of concrete forming. We did not have the advanced tools and equipment like you have today, but I love that portable crane you used. What brand /mfg and height was the one you used? I saw them used a lot in Europe, like Switzerland, for even small homes, especially for constructing a log home.
A guy can build an awful lot of stuff in 45 years and see a lot more, good on ya!
That little crane is an Italian Benedini B618. Roughly 50' under the hook with a max radius of 59' and 360* rotation for a 118' circle. Max lift is 1 metric ton or 2200# out to 37' radius and then it tapers to full reach at 1300# max. I have it set so I can't deck the block on level ground so i run a hook on a 4' strap to keep the block out of my face and a 16' two legged bridle so i can reach onto the basement floor or in this case the driveway below my feet. The machine weighs a little more than 10k pounds and it uses 20k counterweight or 10-2k blocks. Runs of the 20A 220v on the power pole and is remote ops only. the erect-derect is levers on the turret and there is a hydraulic foot under the counterweights to help take the weight off of each leg to help level the machine during initial set up. It is small machine with small payload in the crane world but if you think of the work I can do with it from a 12" radius working pad it's pretty nuts. It really takes a lot of the drama and scheduling out of the equation for me. This job i'll end up needing the 35t boom truck twice still for beams outside of my capacity but it's still totally worth having on the job especially when i start setting beams on the roof from the driveway 3 floors down :-) Thanks for watching, I appreciate it.
Hey, thanks Jake. That is great info, as I always get curious about things that make the job run smoother and faster. I think the ones I saw in Switzerland had a gas or diesel engine for power, does that sound right? What was neat in your case, was that you had the remote close by as you worked, and was able to do what normally would take a crew to do, with just yourself. I assume you are a steel fabricator by trade, right? A hard worker too. Good luck with the house. Thanks again for charing the info.
I'm guessing an onboard engine would probably be functioning as a generator and possibly a hydraulic pump to erect the unit. I do know that they have some extremely advanced tech in the self erecting crane game in Europe. They have self driving ones that can actually roll themselves down the length of a big commercial building while erected believe it or not and they have some that self drive while folded up to maneuver to the setup location once they are trucked to the site. They also make some truly huge self erectors that are reaching out past 100' now in the US. We've both probably seen larger ones set up here but didn't realize it because they look like a normal tower crane in size and operation. I started out as framer in the 80's and fabricated as a hobby until I went and got my certification in the late 90's and added it into my program. Now I do a really wide set of things including a bit of really heavy industrial building repair and other oddball stuff. I hope you stick around because I never know what's coming next.@@bstiger6482
World strongest house ❤
doesn't all that moisture damage the subflooring? seems like it has been wet since you put it down.
The 1-1/8 ply that we use is a premium product and it holds up amazingly. Every so often a part of a piece will delaminate and i'll replace it but it's always been worth the effort and expense to use in the past. It is just one of the things that we have to deal with in this area. I do know that they've improved the 1-1/8 OSB flooring in the last decade to take the rain better but i'm just not on board with it especially when the project is getting wood floors everywhere.
Thanks for watching!
Does it ever stop raining where you are
Does the rain stop in the area where you are building?
It stops during next weeks video and I caught it on camera! :-)
New to your job site. Maybe you have answered this before but I was wondering what kind of blade you are using to cut steel with your circular saw? It looks like you are cutting butter.!
No worries, The saw is a skil SPT78MMC and it runs the 8" x 42 tooth diablo cermet blade. The saw turns slower than a normal skil and it's designed to capture all the chips in a basket that fully shrouds the blade Diablo makes the same blade in 7-1/4 to use in a normal wormdrive but the speed and chips can foul you a little although it's great for stacks of metal roof panels or other lighter stuff.
Thanks for checking out the channel and i hope you stick around!
why do u put the card board under the bases of the support bracing on the steel posts
In the hopes that it won’t stain the plywood through there when I pull them up. I forgot it on some of them and I think it’s working actually :-)
curious as to logic behind the large "upside-down" hanger.
Same architect design house across street?
Oh yeah, that’s a pretty common way to create a double cantilever. Both parallel PSL rim beams cantilever out past the end of the foundation where the block line is. The upside down hanger allows the larger, right hand, rim beam to bear the weight of the box rim, which then continues past to create a 3 foot cantilever parallel with the rims which in turn will support the PSL‘s that create that wall line. Once it’s all wrapped up and sided with windows in it it’s a pretty amazing effect especially since that entire corner is a window with about 4 feet on the end and 11 feet on the long side. That hanger was something else, there must’ve been 60 screws in it :-)
thanks. like a large saddle hanger. was it custom?@@ShredPile
No, not custom but not a stock item locally. Had to order from Simpson. It's a HD version of the HGUS -sds line@@kennethbarber438
Does it ever not rain there?
Sun comes out in the next video!
I'm wondering how much contact you have with the clients? Or are you just dealing with the architect/gc?
None that I know of, these projects are typically spec's although sometimes they sell during construction. Even if sold it would remain under control of the architect and of course the GC that I am working for. I do also speak a lot with the engineer. Thanks for watching.
Always work by yourself?
I do.
It's going to be nice but there's already neighbors.
So you couldn’t manage without a crane. I’m so disillusioned. 😊
Lol, after several hundred houses without one I figured I'd treat myself to one a while back to whistle on to the finish line:-)
Древесина не разбухнет от дождя?
Вот ответ, который я только что оставил на аналогичный вопрос; Слой толщиной 1-1/8, который мы используем, - это продукт премиум-класса, и он прекрасно держится. Время от времени какая-то часть детали расслаивается, и я заменяю ее, но в прошлом ее использование всегда стоило усилий и затрат. Это лишь одна из проблем, с которыми нам приходится иметь дело в этой области. Я знаю, что за последнее десятилетие они улучшили полы из OSB 1-1/8, чтобы они лучше выдерживали дождь, но я просто не согласен с этим, особенно когда в рамках проекта повсюду деревянные полы.
Спасибо за просмотр!
@@ShredPile спасибо и вам за ответ,интересный у вас проект,я подозреваю что это консольный этаж.
