ICF Mountain Homestead: Raising the Ridge Beam
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 сен 2024
- The most dangerous part of the build so far is rigging, raising and setting the LVL ridge beam in place... without a crane. The crew built custom scaffolding to help get the 44' long beam in place while climbing around over four stories above the ground. And then the wind started blowing.

Here comes a poop tsunami of safety comments......
I built many houses,..those guys are doing a fine job......pay no attention to the comments, the house is being built just fine.
I know 😉
No criticism from me! They definitely know what they are doing and confident in their actions. It's my own fear of heights that made me nervous! I am half blind which affects my depth perception and eye hand coordination (think right handed, left eyesight).....I am in awe of what they can do so high up!
Kudos to the crew!
The leading causes of private sector worker deaths in the construction industry are falls, followed by struck by object, electrocution.
Any concern for the safety of this workers is legitimate.
But if you are not concern for the safety of the workers, think about protecting your future.
When there is an accident in a construction site not only it can destroy the life of the worker but also the future of the owner and the owner's family. I'm speaking from my own experience.
@@archliud all fine and dandy until you have to pay out of your pocket...if you want to use a crane and fall protection go ahead,....just don`t try and mandate we all do......or worse yet.....deem us unsafe because you choose to be overly safe.
PS, ……..my buddie died wearing osha fall protection.
@@shawncockrell6007 Understood. But there is always a right time and a wrong time to do stuff. Tower climbers get killed still wearing their fall protection. But they also survive a lot of the times wearing it.
Makes me think of that day I climbed down off the scaffold and told my dad I was going to college.
For those of us who know a little about construction...... this is better than watching Star Wars. Very entertaining. Love it!!!!
Hey Jaime, people are always giving "preppers" grief. Now, everyone is freaking out, hoarding resources, and store shelves are empty, but you and your family were prepared. And thanks to you, so were we.
One thing I know, working guys are unbelievably strong compared to pretty boys with gym muscles. When you see them running up a ladder with a pack of shingles on their shoulder that the average guy couldn’t even pick up you really know what strong means.
Mixed emotions. Not sure if I miss doing construction or if I'm glad I never have to again.
This house build is easily one the top 3 on RUclips, if not the number one ! Thumbs up all around, from the video aspect to the guys framing and you narrating ! Just awesome !!!
I don’t know who the “Boss Man” is, but I’d work for him. He gives clear directions and moves his crew right along.
My heart was pounding for those guys they are crazy but crazy good. This house is going to be beautiful with a spectacular view. WOW I’m really impressed. I love it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼Granny B.
That view will be amazing. :)
Wow, those men are brave and strong. You hired some awesome builders.
Wow oh wow... scarey and amazing and holy heck...Another incredible video and your build team is awe inspiring!!
Those guys are real men.A little NUTS but fearless
It's great to see real craftsmen doing their job. They know their limits and can do things that boggle the mind. WOW!
Yesss, a crane would have been easier, but no way near as much viewing enjoyment. Better than Netflix...
Oh wow! That was some heart stopping action right there, y'all! Whew! So glad they managed it without injury too. Well done crew!
i see we have a bunch of office workers viewing this is typical house framing this is a good framing crew
Ye gods, that was hard to watch, can’t imagine what it was like for them. Awesome work
OMG, I think I'm going to have to take a long walk in the fresh air. I've been holding my breath with my hand in front of my mouth, waiting for something to fall.....OMG!!!
Just another day on the job
Am dizzy just looking at them. Great crew🏡👌
I almost died of a heart attack, but couldn't stop watching. Great video.
There is something very satisfying about watching professionals at work.
Look at those views. Wow! Somebody is going to have an awesome place to drink a hot cup of coffee. Man you guys really know how to chose a great location to build a house. I'm so looking forward to all of the videos you all will put up after the build is through too! I'm so very happy for you guys! God Bless You Always!
Oh dear, these guys do have dangerous jobs! I few times I nearly freaked out and was yelling instructions from my side to take care when I saw the wind blowing and they working up that high. WELL DONE MEN, well done!
The ancestors of this crew must have worked on the Empire State Building (1931). They walk on narrow walls and lift heavy weights over their heads like they do it everyday. When you are old and gray, you can look at these house videos and share laughs with your girls children. “Grandpa you were sooooo smart to hire these men.”
LOL Framers do this kind of thing all the time
Those fellas know how to work ...hats off to them .
Oh my goodness, I kept forgetting to breathe. The boss man has done this a time or two, I think! My heart won't take too much of watching this kind of thing. Diane in NC
That was so intense 👍🏻
It is so incredibly exciting seeing all your plans coming to life. I'm so happy for all of you. I can't wait to see the completed house.. Those guys are something else! They climb around like they're fearless!! Can you imagine if you and Jaime had tried to do all that yourself? Oyvie....
holy moly ... please, let me repeat that .. holy moly ... thanks for sharing this ... Cheers
Looks and sounds like a normal day on the job site. Looking good see you on the next video thanks
OMG...those guy’s are amazing...I could hardly watch that beam going in. 👍
It started with nobody even wanting the job, to finding the "best of the best" accepting the job. They are proud men who push their limitations to help a brother out. Hope that in fifty years, you will still think of each and every one of these men as "best friends forever"!
Oh my goodness this is one tense video, thank God no one has gotten hurt.. It will be a beautiful home with a magnificent view.👍😊
looking awesome!
What a fantastic crew !! Great progress and beautiful mountain views !
Watching this reminded me that "That while I am not necessarily scared of heights, but I am scared of falling" YIKES!!!!!!!!
I worked on a contract, by the square foot, framing crew. Everyday was a goat rodeo... It's the nature of the beast. Really motivated me to finish college. These guys are actually better than average. I'd only worry if things get wet/slippery or high wind gusts develop. Awesomely fun vid to watch!
WOW--those guys are amazing!!!!
Jeremy and the construction crew, thank you for allowing us to see how a house is constructed. You are appreciated.
I agree with you. Those guys are crazy! I hope they got hazardous duty pay on this one. They seemed pretty comfortable walking up so high & on such a small place to put their feet. Gives new meaning to a balance beam. So glad it all went well! Love & Hugs from Vicki in Ft. Worth, Texas 🇨🇱🇺🇸👍❤️😁🙏
Those framers are incredible. Wow.
it was like watching a three ring circus
I'm pretty sure they get paid a lot, but after seeing what they do...it's not enough. Nerves of steel.
Dear OSHA,
This was just all in your imagination, nothing but a fevered dream.
WOW That looked easy..??? Those guys are my Heros.!!!
Wowee.
I almost fast-forwarded . . . but hung in there to the end.
Looking forward to Part 2.
Butt pucker factor of 10. Better them than me Lol. Excellent job boys. That was impressive.
Wow! ... My heart was racing! I can't believe they weren't wearing a safety harness. One slip or push and by by. They earned a steak dinner after this beam was in for sure.
I think I held my breath for most of this... crazy men
Scary stuff, glad you got help for this.
Oh my Jeremy that was a nail biter, had me on the edge of my seat with one eye closed! That’s progress though and one step closer, right Jaime? 👍😬
Got a little hairy there at the end, but those guys got 'er done anyway! Glad nobody got hurt and looking forward to the next video.
My feet are sweating. I could never do this. Those guys are brave as all get out.
Wow, I gritted my teeth through most of that! These guys have no fear, awesome to see how they work though! Thanks for sharing this with us guys.
Kudos to construction guys! They make it look so easy.
I can’t even watch this!!! 😮
That had my heights anxiety at full tilt!! YIKES!!
Phew! Intense!
WOW! GREAT crew. I have 4 brothers and like my Dad, they all worked construction. My father was a plumber/pipefitter/welder, carpenter. & during WW2 he helped bore the holes for cannons, and later, worked for the AEC in the Arco desert. 1 plumber/ pipefitter, 1 carpenter/machinist 1 electrician, 1 brother does almost everything, and for the last 40 years has run his own business specializing in mobile refrigeration. Give tradesmen their due respect. most men can read a book, but not so many can set a ridge beam or fix your car's carburetor, or re-wire your house.
Well that was ...... interesting!
I have to admire their work ethic but I doubt a bit of safety would cost much! Also it could have come across wrong on the video but their communication skills could see some improvement ;0)
Quite the cliffhanger!
OMG! I am afraid of heights! I was terrified by just watching those very, brave young men. Excellent job and excellent video. I am thoroughly impressed. I was not there but feel as though I was up on that scaffolding with them. This adventure was just added to my Bucket List and immediately marked off as 'Mission Accomplished'. Thanks to all involved. :)
Yikes! I was on the edge of my seat. Those guys are fearless. Hard workers though.
Woof! A whole new dimension to the words "insured and bonded" !!!! Congrats!
NICE JOB MEN ! every one is doing great ! Be safe MEN!!!!!!!!! GOOD VIDEO.
Well done Fellas. Quite the task. The road less travelled, but mission accomplished!! The only way is up, that's the mission at hand. o my o my..
Kindness your way
Neil { Lochness Scottish Highlands }
Loved all the birds chirping: "hey new neighbour - thats a lot of noise you're making"
Amazing to us in uk. I was sitting on edge of my seat watching this. man oh man.
wow....Love and Hugs from Sapulpa, Oklahoma
ohh darn I was stuck in the 2017 !! Glad that things are working out !! I will keep going back and keep watching the canning videos !! I do learn a lot !!
Love the coffee mug ad!
Omg that was nerve racking!!!!
17:36. Let the cursing commence. HOLY COW!! Even I clenched just watching that.
Oh my goodness that was so nerve-wracking! What a great job they are doing for you guys :-)
I have enjoyed your channel for quite some time. I am happy to see the fruits of labor dedication and hard work through rough times coming alive. Your dream home with a beautiful view. Very nice guys. Those. boys need a little bonus for that work, wow. Feed them a great lunch or something. Looking forward to next time
That was the most harrowing video ever!! I had to take a break midway through the video! 😱😥😬 Those are some fearless dudes! Great job!
That was a dangerous place to be. Glad they got that beam up there. Be safe :)
Aaaaaaghhhh! Cliff hanger!?!? How despicable! Omg been biting my nails & chewing a hole in my seat the whole video!!! I have an extreme fear of heights & this definitely got my adrenaline going big time. I was waiting for that moment when the beam was secured ... But, seriously? I am impressed but ya got me hangin'!
I'm about to have a heart attack. I cannot fathom how you are holding up.
I was so stressed out watching this! That's saying a lot! Bless these guys and you. Lord help lol 😲🤯
Nothing like people that know what they are doing. I have seen guys doing stuff like this all my life, i have even done it once or twice but nothing like that , that high. They got more nerve than I do. But you have to do what you have to do. And the main thing I saw was that they are not going so fast it become more dangerous. Great group you hired.
In the Service they refer to this method as the "BuFFI" system.
What?? You sure the two of you didn't want to do this yourselves??
OMG those guys are amazing! I almost 🤢 at the sight of those heights they were maneuvering around on!!!!
..AND THE WIND ! !
Wow...I was sweating! You're right those guys are crazy... but then again that's what ya do without crane's! Lord almighty... I'm praying for them guys!
Wow, those guys are doing a great job. There are moments in the video that made me "Very" nervous. I can't even imagine from your perspective. Loved the coffee mug advertisement. thanks as always for the videos and for letting us travel along. Trusting that the framers are insured and again insured!! LOL
Rob Schroeder (Rockford MI)
Just being able to look out and see the view is so well worth it. 🌸
This was scary to watch! 😱😨😅 That being said, I'm glad you found an excellent, experienced crew to help you out! ❤️
That's a Git R Done crew right there!!
Oh man! My fear of heights is making me nervous for those guys!!
I am so thrilled that you guys are able to continue building during this uncertain time. Can't wait to watch the progress!
It’s so exciting to watch the progress. Thank you for the content - as always.
That was a 5 on the pucker scale. And used to weld 150 feet up in a crane basket in Houston Ship Channel. Fire in the hole. Hade enough of that for nine years.
Jeremy, you win the award for the most casual, totally obvious, classy advertising of mugs award :-) By the way, I had to switch to pure O2 as I was nervous as a kitten in a dog pound. I don't know if I can watch the rafters going up. Shoot, I am a flat lander that gets nervous standing on the top step of an 18" ladder -- yes -- I said 18".
New respect for framing!
Oh my! I started to feel dizzy watching these guy! wow wow and wow. Good job guys.
My heart was in my throat. I was so scared for them guys... great job, cant wait for next video!
Just imagine where your back would be without these guys.
The scariest thing I've seen you guys do yet!
There’re doing great but I was sooooo on the edge of my seat lol
One of my favourite channels..along with British guy Maximus Ironthumper for a simpler approach.
Reminds me of running alarm wires during construction ... Don't remember scaffolding tho ...
#1. You got that for a second ?
#2. No
#3. No
So exciting! You all must be over the moon! Praying for all your crew to stay safe! Mrs CB Ohio
