I'm glad to see that I am not the only person out there thinking in this way. I plan on using a heavy type of roofing along these lines on the exposed parts of my structures. Definitely hail/wind PROOF and very easy to mount whatever I wish without any worry about the usual concerns. This is rather expensive but the peace of mind would be priceless! I won't care about the weather and my buildings roofs having issues with very high winds. Rhino-Liner is what I will use to cover any exposed steel and then marine paint for the top coat. I would put coating on all surfaces coming in contact with sun or earth. Expensive perhaps but I'll never worry once it's all done. My hat is off to Andrew, he gets to do what I'd like to be doing right now while he's still young and able. I hope that I can do half as well when I try my hand at building my ideal fortress in the north. And all the wonderful tools/materials to update my plans I see on these videos! Glad I found another useful channel amongst the foolishness I've had to wade through doing research for my project. Again, thank you for a well done series.

[@thekingtroll2]

Oh, another thought. Around my house, I've used Rustoleum. I've used the primer so it bonded to the oil based paint. IT lasts for years. My aunt bought a house in 1978. It was two tone inside. Yellow and lime green. In 2010 she was in the hospital with a heart problem. I went to the paint store and told them I have washed the walls down and needed paint. I said the paint was thin and almost down to the drywall paper. This guy told me to use Valspar with primer included. I picked out a 5 gallon bucket and started in. I did a dining room first. As I was painting and when I was done, I looked back and thought "This is going to need a few coats". I went to run a few errands and when I got back I just about dropped my jaw. That room was beautiful. I'm telling you it dried and made it look as if a professional painted it in a mansion. I did the kitchen, two hallways and three bedrooms and still had paint left over. Paints have changed in recent years with new formulas coming in. If i was you, I"d snap a picture of your roof and contact Rustoleum, Valspar and a few others for their recommendations. I watched a video where Valspar (samples) commercially painted roofs didn't fade after 50 years. But their new products are always improving. Who knows? Someone might sponsor the painting of your roof. Tell them you have your youtube channel and need advice on the BEST paint for long term and color choices.

And now to the latest headlines: meteorologists were shocked when an EF-5 tornado struck a home in the upstate region. The tornado, although trying its best to stay together, was torn apart by the sheer strength of the structure and quickly dissipated. Neighbors were quoted later recalling "Oh yeah, that's Andrews' house. That tornado never stood a chance." Meanwhile, in related news, geologists investigating the recent reduction in seismic events in the region surveyed the structure and found that the house was in fact so strong that it had geologically stabilized a region 40km wide. The owner declined an interview but directed us to his KZbin channel.

Andrew, epic videos, well done and loving it from England. I have built commercial steel framed buildings and I strongly suggest you pay special attention to potential lightning strikes. Either (best option) employ a specialist to develop a calculated technical design or deploy a dedicated earthing system based upon some technical research. I think it's especially important not simply to rely on the steel frame being sunk in concrete footings that are buried in the ground to provide a viable method of dissipating a lightning strike. You need to run copper bands around the structure and these should be terminated on copper plates burried in the ground. In addition, I think it would be a good idea to measure the conductivity of the sub-soil to ensure the charge from the strike can be effectively carried to earth. Failure to deploy an effective system could be dangerous to the occupants. Keep up the great work Andrew - you truly embody the American can-do spirit.

Cody is getting so big. I love him so much!

Put some torches or lanterns on the support beams to make it look like a true castle 🏰 Especially at night

[@HAL-dm1eh]

LEDs (possibly solar powered) would work amazing!

[@levimaxton6307]

and a moat

[@waynegouin939]

Good idea!

[@larrypierce2777]

Getting that MIG to work outdoors is a trick. I guess the wind isn't blowing that much. Wow! Humongous amount of steel! I've worked with those metal sheets and they're not light for sure. Fantastic work. Glad you had the help Andrew. What a project just on the roof itself! Mega Bucks, too, whew!

[@jonathonvanmeter4893]

Great job Andrew! Very talented young man! Ladies-he’s single last I heard. He’s built a great castle for his future queen. IMO

[@csnelling4]

Jonathon Van Meter what happened to the pretty young lass that was on the earlier videos ?

[@jimgrady7458]

Don't jinx him 😂 If he's lucky, he'll stay single, or as I tell people, "I have my house, my guns, my motorcycles, and I do what I want when I want, why in the world would I invite a crazy person to come live with me? What possible upside is there to that?" 🤙

[@jonathonvanmeter4893]

Chris Snelling I don’t know. But I’m sure Andrew will someday have his queen. Hopefully she will be wise like him. Would be great to have more intelligent practical thinking humans walking the planet-when he procreates! Nothing but respect for him!

[@DIRT-BOSS]

Well one good thing you'll be a Master Welder by the time this project is done! Strap thos magnets to your boots! Keep ya on the roof.. lol..Awesome build Bro👍🏼🇺🇸

"...Firewood nonsense that just blows away." I love it! Great job as usual Andrew.

I used to work for a company painting steel structures similar to your roof. Mostly industrial bag houses and the associated ductwork. A lot of that stuff is located outdoors. We always used a Alkyd steel primer. Any quality top coat will be fine. We used mostly PPG products. And make sure you get a cheap mop, and a few gallons of acetone to wipe the roof down before you prime it.

[@bluejeans725]

Congratulations on the roof, great effort by everyone in executing your construction ideas.

[@millibilli7058]

WOW, you've got "real" skills man. Totally awesome gearhead structure. Great videos God bless.

[@nailasch2187]

Andrew, I'm just like the other solid viewers, I click on the video and immediately tapped "LIKE"! 👏 then we watch the video! Keep the pup in too!

[@tranquilswana-z3782]

Awe baby Codi was so sweet, you love your dogs. Incredible building super impressed Andrew.

[@grahamhayden9770]

Oh yeah, saving this one for when the misses goes out and I can watch in peace!!!

[@moth.monster]

Well, I just found out about this container castle thing... guess i'll be watching the playlist tonight.

[@jamesogorman3287]

eri At least you won’t have to worry about the Coronavirus. It’ll be long gone before you get back out in the public after watching all of Andrew’s videos.

[@sammig330]

Yesss Finally been waiting for this episode... saw a couple of other thumbnails videos of people workkng on your roof but wanted to wait for your video before watching anything

[@robbie2025]

Sam Gauthier my exact thought as well brother, needs to be from the main man himself👍

[@endemiller5463]

I watched the others. They were OK but..... This one still surprised me as usual!!

[@iamiancamp]

You must be the OG of barn dominium or garage/house. It seems like everyone is doing that nowadays and I love it.

[@craigsmith8217]

"Camarata" must be Latin for "overkill".

Craig Smith Italian.

[@craigsmith8217]

@@dennisfahlstrom7422 My first thought was Italian. Then I looked it up and it could also be Portuguese or Spanish. So I opted for the diplomatic option.

Italian is a descendant of Vulgar Latin (colloquial spoken Latin). Standard Italian is based on Tuscan, especially its Florentine dialect, and is therefore an Italo-Dalmatian language, a classification that includes most other central and southern Italian language italian = latin

3:51 just as I thought about that workbench you addressed it 😄

How about acid etching then clear sealing it?

Congratulations. This was such an incredible undertaking. I am proud to see it complete 😥
