I'm really enjoying this project Mike. You sure got an act for making stuff look good. The building itself is an eye Catcher. Dressing up the ground just adds to it. Good job my friend.

[@russellbowman8051]

Looks Great!! HOW EXCITING!!👍👊

[@davidfarrish9000]

Love the music for the rake. 👍👍👍👍

[@carolschreffler5112]

Greetings from Ohio. Hi guys. The building is looking great. Looking forward to each day

[@WAVETUBE84]

Beautiful skies in Pennsylvania

[@tonybrown8574]

It’s about time on the landscape rake. The wheel kit is a big help

[@tomfillmore9710]

good job Mike building is looking good and your rake will be very handy you will get a lot of use out of that have a great day thanks for sharing

[@rogerbamatutz1927]

That rake works great behind the Bx. The area will look great. With the roof over the patio area, I wouldn't think that you'll have any degrading issues with the fake stone.

[@chrisreibold1634]

I bought straw from the same farmer lol! Honor system! Loved the camera shot with the bales in the bed showing the land rolling by!

[@bobpurs]

Again looking great.

[@jeffclaus4422]

Awesome pole barn-!!!!

[@vancasdorph3951]

Mike you do an incredible job smoothing and moving dirt

[@sofakinggood5829]

I like that new rake

[@traviscover590]

I like your new video today you did a really good jop i like your new shop look nice did a good jop today

[@joehuinker7009]

Yes Mike cultured stone. Wirelath over PLYWOOD that iscovered with builders felt nail lath every 4 inches square scratch coat w mortar wire thickness. Lay out your stone on ground lick em and stick em after you butter up the back a little wiggle will help stone stick (suction) strike joints and brush. Keep joints equal but not too wide. You will figure it out

[@OneLonelyPlumber]

Super cool. Very Nice Morgans

[@wardshelley8329]

If you remove every other tine on the landscape rake it becomes very useful for maintaining gravel driveways. A couple of passes loosens the top layer of rock and evens it out, a quick pass with a heavy roller (I made mine from two old air compressor tanks filled with concrete) and it looks like new.

[@barrywinters1142]

nice tunes, nice toys

[@badcat4707]

Good afternoon Hunter ;-)

[@knightscotty1982]

Was very surprised at the work you were able to get done with the landscape rake. I know you're more focused on the building, but I think you should talk about that rake in a future video. I've been wanting one but wasn't sure it would do enough to justify it. Thanks for the great videos.

[@charlielewis6849]

Looking great 👍

[@ronalddean4834]

The building looks great from the road and coming up your driveway. The stone on the front of the building is going to look great. Thanks for sharing Mike

[@Z-Bart]

Words every homeowner can appreciate...'On time and under budget'. Love the color combo. 👍

[@talezfromthedashcam3138]

Homeowner? try any project....get delayed or over budget, and executive management is there to "help" Right Mike?

[@timwaddell7499]

Take the concrete the full length of the building. That way you have a nice pad outside to wash vehicles or do maintenance outside on a pretty day. I wish my garage had an extension of the concrete since the inside has turned into storage/gym/game room. You won't regret it !!

[@RDavies126746]

Building is looking good! Will look amazing with the Morgan's sitting by the pool with a fire in the new fire pit!

[@paulpetro652]

Mike & Melissa that's simply amazing what can be done in a week or less. I know it was years in the planning and was well worth it. Almost time for you to start on the inside. I can't wait to see the finished "Morgan's Hobby Barn" 👍 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😊🤗

[@patrickkolb6408]

Prestige Stone. Located in Mt Eaton , Ohio. Great product cost effective. Made by people that used to install manufactured stone veneer.

[@tinachambers4887]

Nice video yall always fun to watch have a great day love from TEXAS

[@tomaswilson2792]

That is a massive amount of work done in six days. By the way thanks to your lengthy use reviews of the RK tractors I picked up my rk55 cab yesterday 😁.

[@haroldhubbs8117]

RR Buildings on Utube specialized in that stone siding on their new construction,great program

[@mikeelwood8626]

Great progress! You sure how to give your yard a clean look, Mike!

[@gerryhoffman5667]

Mike & Melissa, building looks fantastic, when you do your concrete will you seal it when done?if so be careful will be slippery with snow on your feet, & gasoline will dissolve the finish. Ever see concrete stamping? It will look great anyway you do it. Nice job, nice barn.

[@BillyP55]

I'm glad you added that you "touched it up with the hand rake"... I was thinking that I can never get that much detail with the tractor (1025R). lol Building is looking good!

[@chuckrtberry1526]

Watch R&R Buildings install Versetta Stone. Beautiful natural stone look.

[@donlowe9125]

I liked the guitar music at the beginning... I also like the flat rock look for the barn great video

[@keithp7183]

I've used a few of those cultured stone products, if you get direct sun light on them they will fade to cement color in a couple of years. They may have a U.V. spray that might let them hold color a little longer. Keep that in mind with your choice of product you want to use. Keep up the great content, love the channel.

[@thebradleysoncatbirdhill6849]

Mike! Every time I get one step closer to upgrading my BX23, you give me more reasons to keep it!

[@garycrumrine9538]

First time I saw the house next door

[@greggb3079]

Mr. Morgan, you are somewhat of a "guru" with a rubber tire tractor front end loader & bucket, when it comes to leveling, spreading, and even excavating dirt. I have watched many of your videos, and I am always impressed. I have a 20yr old Kubota L3710, and always end diving the bucket edge, and gouging with it. Building looks great...! Thank you.

[@williammitchell9300]

Hey Mike I used that Versetta stone and it was pretty easy to install , I had to wrap it around my Fire Place inside my house and it went up like a charm . the finished look was awesome ....

[@robertmorris8709]

R&R Buildings is a good source of info. Rent a tile cutter will be a great help.

[@OutdoorAbenteuer]

Gratulation 🎊🍾🎈🎉 My Kubota friends - best wishes from Germany 🇩🇪 to you ❤️🌳❤️

Translated ..... Great that it is so beautiful and SO FAST 🏃🏼‍♂️ Greetings from Holland

[@RamblinRoadies]

Love your videos. For your stone veneer, I would suggest real stone. They process it so that it's uniformly about 1 1/2" thick. It's natural stone, so the color is all the way through it. With "cultured" stone you have to hide your cuts because the cut edge is concrete. The natural stone never fades or discolors. It's easy to cut with a diamond blade on your circular saw. You don't have a lot of square footage, so it wouldn't be terribly expensive. I've been building for 40+ years, and that's the product I always recommend. Some of that local Bluestone would be nice on your patio floor. 😉 The playhouse is looking great!

[@wsk38]

I love your channel Mike and Melissa. You got a great family. Thanks for sharing. Take care and keep’em coming

[@richardjarka3962]

You are going to love that landscape rake.IT IS ACES!!

[@thomassnead9933]

Good job.

[@mikenixon9164]

Put a set of caster wheels on that rake & it will work better.

[@robertsnyder5193]

I've installed both the vinyl and faux stone, stacked field stone and large pebble type all nice

[@LogHouseFarm]

I will be tuning in Sunday - really interested to know the details of that building!

[@jerryaschenbrenner712]

There’s nothing beats having the right tools for the job. It’s going to look great when it’s all grassed in.

[@dickhansen8594]

You make it look easy to take the rough landscape and finish it. Thanks

[@rexbarrett1643]

I am drooling! Very nice....

[@wayneschnare4019]

Maybe look into real stone , place is looking awesome . hello to Hunter !!!

[@olddawgdreaming5715]

Good morning Mike, looking good around there 👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. 👋 to Hunter! You’ll put the land rake to good use. Have a good weekend . Thanks for sharing with us , sure enjoy your journeys.

[@BG-vq9fd]

One of there earlier videos showed the stone work. they even had the stone rep on one video. RR Buildings 11:15 / 12:14 Cabin in the Woods 28: Installing Metal Siding around Windows and Fireplace

[@c.a.g.1977]

Amazing to see how fast the barn build is coming along! As for the patio part: I would use wood, this always gives off good vibes, imho

[@timberwolflogging8472]

Goodmorning Morgans building is looking good and extending the concrete patio to the mans door great idea will add some outdoor living space for entertaining

[@jimfrank3591]

Try this video....Cabin in the Woods Part 23: Installing Versetta Stone Siding and Pella Windows

[@wwaters56]

versetta stone is used by R&R Buildings. They have a few videos on how to install as well

[@HallnoutMhall]

Morning Morgan's and all followers! Man the MORGAN-MINIUM is coming together nicely. The building will be so nice when hosting party's and so much more. Mike I love the rake. So many uses. It will earn it's keep fast. Hope everyone has a great Saturday. Be safe and tell the family hello. Have a day.

[@independence360]

HAPPY satruday !! :) :)

[@evankibbe590]

Looking good

[@seandever2289]

Versetta stone! Looks real , what I’m using on my pole barn build.

[@ns4wsm]

M rock is nice, metal lathe , mortar , good to go .

[@ns4wsm]

Lowe’s carry’s it

[@PurpleCollarLife]

Great progress! We love our patio door that has the blinds built in.

[@joncarswell8176]

If you wanted a brick wainscot that’s simple check out Nova brick. Easy install, no mortar. Do it yourself friendly and a lot cheaper than versetta stone. Lots of pole buildings and houses use it but it has kinda fallen out of favor for the stone look. It’s probably the most durable one out there.

[@neilmarshall4927]

I've had good luck with Airstone

[@davidbishop4015]

Mike, you got all the toys, and use them well. Your builder's are doing a beautiful job on the barn. Looking forward to Sunday's video. Keep up the good work.

[@theodoreboyd2149]

Good morning Mike, I know concrete is very expensive but you only need to do it once. We have a 36' X 80' shed and we poured a 20' apron all the way around the building. Makes it great for snow removal and in the spring when everything is soft and muddy. The shed is looking great, love your videos!

[@royhubbard6579]

Wow, I never realized how close to the road the barn is going to be.

[@norplan9050]

7:42.. Good Stuff. I used that Dry Stack Stone by Fusion from HD, easy to install.. It will complement your siding real good... Carry On Morgan's

[@4x4Moses]

I'd be tempted to use your firewood bucket to filter some of the larger clumps & debris out of that topsoil.

[@1944chevytruck]

just amzaing a building goes up that fast!... another new toy!.... thanks 4 video. be kind.

[@chrispileski6640]

No suggestions on the stone, but on your hillside, I would recommend dragging your landscape rake horizontally right before you seed. When it rains, that will prevent a lot of wash out.

[@charlesscott4513]

When you are back draging with the bucket, lay it down flat and use the back of the bucket either up or down to grade with.

[@holymoly6829]

Looking very good

[@randyrobertson1868]

The tractor rake makes short work of that hillside! Your barn will be a great space when finished. I'm amazed at how quickly they got it up! Looking forward to s Erin it completed.

[@realairplane261]

Randy, I have one of those rakes and I believe the box blade works better unless the material is free of roots and rocks.

[@jmwarden1]

@@realairplane261 I would have to agree the box blade would work better the first time thru the rough stuff and then finish up with the landscape rake.

[@realairplane261]

John, would you have shaped that hill differently. I would have cut it back more so it could be mowed easier. As far as the box blade goes, I put the breaker times all the way down and shorten the 3rd top point on the 3 pt so the times dig more the first couple of times and then feather the box blade back for finishing. In between we have to pick rocks and roots and then finish. A while back I was planting 3000 red pine on a piece of farm land. An old lady stopped her car, got out and scolded the hell out me for planting trees where the men broke their backs clearing the land for farming. I guess I was feeling like Aldo Leopold panting all those trees.

[@belfast479]

Lookin' mighty purdee, Mike.

[@graemescebuphilippines363]

I had one of those rakes like you're using with the spring tines my one had two wheels that could be adjusted for height at the back. The Rake(they called it a stone rake) was made in Canada and imported to New Zealand very handy landscaping tool it's good to see you're using it. Nice work.

[@SMichaelDeHart]

Good morning Morgan's!! Looking good!!

[@jeffsmith.3516]

Good morning Mike! Just wanted to say, I love the look of the barn as you pull into the driveway from the road, outstanding!! I would also like to add a landscape rake to my implement list too! Congratulations on your properties accomplishments!

[@michaelhenry716]

I have done lots of real stones and I have learned everything I know about stone work from my local masonry dealer. I ask them about the artificial stone thinking that it might be a good choice for me. Their recommendation was EP Henry masonry products. I never used their products but I trust the advice that my local people gave they never steered me wrong.

[@TheHobbyFarmHomestead]

Everything is looking good Mike! Can’t wait to see the finished product. Keep up the good work!

[@gregdrusjack4934]

I used natural stone veneer... I assume it may be more expensive than the artificial stone but it looks better in my opinion and there is no manufacturing faults to try and hide... You also can guarantee you won't see repetition in patterns, colors, etc. the increase in price probably isn't that bad for the amount of area you are working with. I love the shop and watching the progress!

[@casycasy5199]

look at the stone rr buildings use on his pole buildings, great channel

[@johngrossbohlin7582]

If there are stone walls around the old farms in the area you may be able to find enough stone around your property to do the lower section of the walls. My sportsmen’s club built the fireplace and chimney from stone on the property, with course sand from one of the streams, and the mantel is a quartered log. Of course that was 80+ years ago...

[@keithwoznek3429]

Looking real good Mike! The resource center is shaping up nice. Only thing left is taking Hunter to BK.

[@joeburton6664]

Versetta stone mike. Used in my pool house, looks great. Stone is very easy to install. Worth every penny. Found it at stone and company concrete.

[@colincampbell290]

Thank you Mike for taking me along in your daily life. Please forgive and old man's stupid questions, but living in South Africa what you do won't work here and Visa verses. So I ask why? to understand. Won't say this again I am bed ridden and live through Gods daily help and watching "You Tune". Yes I'm not so bad off many have worse conditions. Your new barn hobby area is like my build can't wait to see what you do inside, like a little child waiting for the next episode of the serial. God bless you all every day and especially Hunter. I hear him sometimes in the background during daily walk through of progress, or maybe it's me listening for him. Amen

[@borjastick]

The first five minutes of this video were utterly absorbing. Like I was being transported to another nicer place.

[@randycarpenter2914]

Mike you can look on KZbin at this old house. They have installed the stone on many builds they have done. They often talk about the product and show how it installs. Maybe that can help you see different types and installation of them. Hope that helps you.

[@cptophers4626]

That's a nice shack!

[@Spinonemaster]

I've installed a lot of the Owen Corning products ... once you have a sturdy backer board up it's pretty easy, like doing a puzzle .... then us a mortar bag to grout/point joints ... *only hard part is picking the style of rock there are so many ... had a lot of complements on the Sonoma style river rock in earth and pink hues .... finishes nicely (grout) ... I usually build a wooden jig of some sort to hold stones firmly in place for an hour

[@evilbrat5376]

That land rake is nice - though have you looked at the Land Pride Power Rake? Just a thought. they do a outstanding job. Works great on gravel roadways and dirt trails also. The building is coming along and the extended concrete sounds like a winner from the patio to that man door. Nothing like a large area for family and friends get togethers. Well, Have a day and be safe.

[@LekHeri]

very good project sir

[@danielantman8391]

Mike. Check out versetta stone manufactured by Boral building products. It is installed similar to vinyl siding. No need for a mason. Looks beautiful. PM me with any questions.

[@deans2790]

Moving right along!

[@jhmciver1]

Footloose and Fancy Free! Ugh, I'm old.

[@raydunn3501]

Hi M n M,,,The building looks fantastic,,, Just a comment,,, Instead of the Stone cladding,,, Have you considered useing some of your nice wood timber,,, maybe highly varnished up,,, after all it wont cost you for the timber,,, as its home grown,,, and it might compliment with what your gonna do inside. Just a thought guys.

[@johnsuch2707]

The building is looking gorgeous. That rake does a really nice job and be ready to seed soon. Thanks for all the info and looking forward to hear about the building cost, supplies tomorrow. Be safe out there and have a Blessed Day 😀
