    As a small business owner who is still figuring a lot of this stuff out, I appreciate how candid you are about your expenses, building costs, etc. I don't get why people are usually so coy about it, but thanks for talking openly about it -- it really does help to frame my own thinking about how to do things.

      You would be surprised to learn that people are so "coy " about the numbers because most people honestly don't even know the numbers. They know the general size of the building and how much it costed in the end -- and that's about it. Most people aren't as involved as he has been with this thing, and they couldn't tell you much else about it other than "it took longer than I thought it would, and it costed more than It was supposed to" --- etc.

      I'm sure you will consider this, but the tax write-off on the building as a business expense will be considerable more than the rent write-off, I would guess. A good accountant will be a big help, if you haven't yet found one.

    When figuring out your payback time, you also need to take into account rent increases over time, as well as the fact that after your payback period is complete, you're left with a functional building, whereas continuing to rent leaves you with nothing.

    • @841tl
      @841tl Год назад +6

      That's exactly what I was thinking too. Also, the increased property value now and appreciation over the next ten years during the payback period plays a role. His true payback period could only be a few years.

  • @2000sborton
    @2000sborton Год назад +6

    Mathew, as one of those who kind of asked about pay back time thank you. I kind of expected it to be good, I didn't realize that it was going to be this good. Congratulations, a job well done.
    As I am in the process of reorganizing my own much smaller shop I can empathize with what you are currently dealing with. Proper organization is key to running a successful business. It may not feel like it, but putting in the work now will pay off tenfold later. I have found that doing the job in detail on paper is invaluable. Erasing a line on paper is much much easier than moving something around in the barn.
    Now for a bit of negativity. I was freaking out when watching you initially put up the ducting. As an ex ironworker I have a very good awareness of what working at heights entails. You my friend, were screwing up badly ! An unexpected shift in a load can have disastrous consequences and you were completely unequipped for such. I was holding my breath as I was watching you move those tubes around. You were so close to losing them a couple of times. You would not be the first person to be pulled or pushed off of a workspace by the load that they were dealing with. I speak from experience, it was just shear luck that in my case I didn't go all of the way over from the third floor of the building that I was working on. If I had there were a number of rebar rods protruding up from the concrete that were just waiting to skewer me.
    When working on our own we often pay less attention to safety then when we are part of a crew on a jobsite. You were definitely guilty of that at about minute 3 or so of this video. Falling ten feet onto a concrete floor is no laughing matter. I have a friend who fell off of an eight foot ladder when setting up his printing business. He was on the top rung of the ladder which we all know is not right. He ended up losing his business due to the months that he had to spend healing, with no income. Do you have three months of no income built into your business plan?
    There is a VERY simple way of protecting yourself in what you were doing. Most elevated platforms have a safety chain to close off the open side when you are working. Either yours didn't have one or you did not bother putting it up. An alternative to that is spending about eighty bucks on a safety belt and clipping it onto the railing of the platform. If you do end up going over the edge at least your injuries will be minimal with this. I apologize for the criticism, but I have been watching you on your journey for a number of years now and am so glad to see all that you have accomplished, (aside from the greenness of my envy for not having done something similar). You have been an inspiration to me in my own endeavours. I would seriously be saddened to see it all coming to an end for the lack of such a simple and cheap fix. I want to see how far your journey goes. I will be able to say, "I remember when Matt Cremona was cutting up logs in his backyard, now look at him." I kind of think that your wife and kids are a bit invested in your progress as well. Being a risk taker can lead to some great rewards, but why do it when there is such little gain as saving a couple of minutes?
    OK, rant over. Congratulations on getting the barn finished and now being able to work in warmth and dryness. Looking forward to much more. STAY SAFE and keep on trucking.

    DUDE, the amount of work you did by yourself in this video is nothing short of amazing in and of itself. Between the Telehandler and the smaller skid-steer unit, they do a bunch of different things to take the W out of Work. That snow blower attachment is very handy and seems to work just fine in your setting. As far as the bathroom situation goes, you could save some funds if you had a septic system next to the barn and then just got yourself a used stick-and-tin RV with a bath and a kitchen for breaks and maybe even for someone to stay overnight on occasion. You could hook up the interior furnace to the propane tank, the drain goes to your septic system and you could get electricity from the barn and all you might need to do was to add some type of insulation around it for the colder months to keep it warmed above freezing. For a used RV it could be a lot cheaper than running services to the house. Water could be portable or you could fill up the internal fresh water tank with a 12 volt pump. Just a thought...

    Another option for the bathroom, in addition to the composting toilet as others have suggested, would be to plumb it to a buried holding tank. Depending on usage, a 1,000 gallon holding tank (a smaller size for a septic tank) might only need to be pumped every year or two. The same people that pump a septic tank can pump the holding tank. That would allow for a sink, something that the composting toilet doesn't.
    A water supply tank could be buried or inside. Refilling it could be done in the same timespan.

Having a loading dock has made life much easier on my old body. The dock is set to the height of my truck tailgate. I did put in a bathroom as it was much cheaper to do upfront.

    Matt. As a person who has lived in the UP of Michigan and now is in Key West, Florida, I love to see somebody moving snow! Thanks for the memories! Keep on keeping on.

    Man, you got a lot of stuff!!!! Long term you might need one or two helpers. Wish you well with your business. I worked as an industrial engineer in a manufacturing facility and designed and supervised the moving of the entire facility to a new location. My primary focus was Work Flow when I designed the new factory. I used Modulex blocks (looks like leggo blocks) and laid out the entire facility to scale (1/4 in = 1ft ) on a piece of 4x8 plywood. The electricians and plumbers and machine installers came to look at my model and make layout prints as to what we wanted. I said all that to say I am thoroughly enjoying you going through this process. I don't understand your business (volume of the manufactured finished product) and so there are no recommendations for the layout.

    Wow, no snow up here in southern New Brunswick, Canada! As if you have any spare time, but you could build a outside rack for all your attachments to keep them off the ground and out of the snow.

    Just an idea about the bathroom plumbing... My aunt has a horse barn out on some farm land. They bought a older porta John to use and call a septic guy to clean it out as needed (for guests and emergency #2's). Guys just need a tree to go #1 🤣

    That's why the covered porch area to be built later on is a great thing, because you can plumb for a bathroom out to that covered porch area, not in the building itself - and risking issues with your hydronic floor heating system. You can cut a door in the side of the building to an exterior-mounted bathroom on the porch. You can just have its own door outside, since it'll still be covered by the porch.

    1) At 18:50... Ouch!!!
    2) at 22:00 what is the wooden rack used for? It looks like a 4 sided lumber rack.
    3) What are you painting on the mdf shelves? Some sort of varnish or sealant?
    4) it's cool to see it all coming together.

    Matt, YES PLEASE do another one like this. I like the organization stuff you did and am definetly looking forward to the next one. One thing I missed, if you mentioned it, was where your gonna put the massive wood drying machine? Against the back wall near the slab racks? Anyway, thanks for the update and hope that wrist isn't to badly damaged.

      I'm thinking it will go against the wall where the racks with the wood on them are. I'll just pull the racks away from the wall and put the kiln against the wall. At least that's the plan now.

    Matt just use a holding tank for the sewage from a bathroom. You can have it pumped out when you do it for your annual home septic tank solids. You can use a rainwater collection system for the hand washing and flushing. This system eliminates all the trenching,pipe and permitting. And it's a good use of all the rainwater that comes off that huge roof surface. Check out the rainwater and sewage holding tanks made by Roth. They are made of polyethylene I believe and are very light weight so the telehandler can pick them up and drop them in the excavated hole.

    • @bsckozak543
      @bsckozak543 Год назад

      The Roth MultiTank® can be used for water cistern, pump, holding, rainwater, or septic tank. This is possible due to its special construction of an inner layer of FDA approved virgin HDPE, two inside layers of PE for improved stability, plus one outer layer of black and UV-stabilized PE. Not only is it special in terms of its construction, but it also has a warranty: lifetime corrosion protection and 5 years of labor insurance coverage.
