    With lumber prices the way they are today, you should have dismantled the house and used the lumber to fix up some of the other old buildings.

      With all the lath and plaster in the house it makes it a little to much work. I am doing this with the barn though.

    This old house has weathered storms for most of a century
    A 20000 pound machine would no way bring it down at one pull
    You wasted a lot of money in reclaimed lumber

    We pulled down 30 X 40 X 25' tall barn with 2 35 hp tractors, Chains were attached to outside vertical corner posts at 16', no siding on barn built mortise & tenon construction with 1 1/2 dowel pins. When it finally came down after 4 pulls, could not see for all the dust from a century of hay/straw dust. Told the neighbor if you want to do any more barns in the future, call anyone but me.

      The house has been abandoned for years. Animals got in and it was full of mold. The foundation was bad and I didn't want it there. There are other videos of walking through the house.

    This used to be quite a common demolition method in the UK. Nowadays they would use an excavator, which would tear it down in a day.

    You were pulling in the wrong location. You gotta think about the center of mass and pressure. You were pulling the house down in the area where there was a maximum center of mass and pressure. You would have been better off gutting the entire interior possible leaving only single low bearing beams. The best area to pull on would've been either from beams toward the roof, or looping around the entire house exterior walls so long as the interior was gutted completely.

  • @pauljames5914
    @pauljames5914 2 года назад +1

    You should've rented a claw excavator to tear it down instead of causing all that toxic air pollution with that roofing and synthetic carpeting and paint burning. I'm not a green new deal guy but I couldn't in good conscience cause that air pollution. Its bad enough with all the accidental fires going on. Wood smoke is said to be twice as carcinogenic as cigarette smoke.

    Seems to me that it would have been easier to hire someone with an excavator to dig a hole and pull it in and bury. I would have gone out on a foggy day and lit it up.
