[@jimmydiresta]

Big thank you to JD from APEX welding, Couldn't have done this with out his experience and wealth of knowledge! the doors will get insulation from inside in due time! thank you brother!

[@ollie4dad]

You need to make a "What's the Password" Slot in the man door. Other than that it's an awesome door.

[@tumtum5123]

Your gunna want to check out, @doorsrus512 on instagram

[@1pcfred]

When I saw the gaps between those boards all I could think of was drafts come winter time.

[@WilliamMoser]

Paul Frederick I used to wonder about the gaps like you, until I caught an arrow in the knee. and then read the video description.

[@Whey2010]

Well done!

[@YuraKvadrat132]

Джимми вы мой кумир. Мастерская просто супер. То что вы делаете великолепно. Жаль я никогда не смогу встретится с вами. А так бы этого хотелось. Встреча с кумиром.

[@iDeviceChgr]

I came for the barn doors, and stayed for the latch system :) I love watching you engineer mechanisms like that latch and lock. And that last scene of you opening it up and the bright light shining in, is what I think it will feel like when you first arrive to the DiResta workshop! Nice work Brother!! 👍🏼

[@tommypetraglia4688]

Eyeballing every step of the way, without a blueprint or even sketch in sight or as my CT Yankee boss would say 'Kentucky Windage'

[@davelester1985]

I smile to see how happy you are working with all your toys.

[@luisduque3584]

Eres un chingón!!!!!!...me quitó el sombrero.....!!!!!......😎..You... jefe ....boss....saludos desde Morelos México......

[@ThisOldTony]

sweet doors. I'd high five you both but your hands are probs dirty.

[@jdbrewer6638]

Yeah, that tends to happen when you hardly wear them 😂 thanks, ToT!

[@nowayjerk8064]

LOOK WHOS HI CLASS NOW HE HAS AN OPUS, WOULD YOU LIKE A MOIST TOWLETT WITH YER GREY POOPON?

[@alexnosheds]

This old Tony I got your Tshirt delivered today! so happy :-)

[@0ohoaxo0]

Oh shit its TOT hows the nail biting going??

[@jimmydiresta]

I am still dirty. 😝

[@MoonshineMetalworks]

I wouldn't have done the hinges like that.... but that's the great thing about KZbin, I get to see things that I wouldn't have done, get done and work great! Thanks Jimmy. Of course the other great thing about KZbin is seeing Brett in the background and going "Hey I know that guy!".

[@Vikingwerk]

Bravo for not going with yet another lousy roll-up door! beautiful work as always.

[@BoomerKeith1]

I love this project. With everything except for the dead bolt, this could have been made in the midevil days. Simply awesome.

[@c.brooks7199]

As a locksmith.......I loved watching the building of the locks....Awesome !!!

[@lynnstevens4772]

Jimmy Diresta this was a great build. My grandson and I really enjoyed watching the barn doors being fabricated. Again, I'd like to thank you for the Ice Pick, the " if it looks straight " poster and his favorite of all time, the I Make postcard that you autographed for him. I cant thank you enough sir and I hope you have a wonderful and blessed day.

[@munched55]

I know people talk up lithium grease but I've used copper paste for years in the worst environments (like on brake pads) and the stuff never fails. Years of sleet and snow, hot and cold and parts come apart like they were put on yesterday. Plus I love the color. Mmmm copper.

[@jeremyfisher2767]

Everything about your locking mechanism was amazing. Only thing that put me off was all the cracks in the doors. With you living up in NY I’d think you would want to tongue and groove those boards. Aside from that absolutely amazing stuff. Love your videos

[@michaelwallace897]

Now those are only about a tenth of a percent away from being considered the pearly gates to heaven. Beautiful work as usual my friend.

[@DerekPlace]

The shot of you at the end opening the doors, was really well done. Congrats. It's looking amazing.

[@masterofnone]

Great job JD and Jimmy. You guys rock.

[@jdbrewer6638]

Thanks bud!!

[@John_Malecki]

So awesome, love the Ingenuity of the locking system!

[@JonMarHannah]

I've got a thing for hand made door handles and latches. Matthias has a good video of some in his family cabins. Love it.

[@63256325N]

Beyond good, on the doors and the hardware. Wicked clever as New Englanders say. Thanks for the video.

[@stumorrison27]

My son just asked me if I'm going to make doors for my shop, I guess I have to now that Jimmy and JD showed me how! Great build guys, I love the comradery built by working together...

[@dustysparks]

Be sure to Lithium grease the ever-loving-s!*# on all of those metal-metal contact points. That's an awesome build! :)

[@Sergey-wg7ne]

Jimmy is the king of makers.

[@areyoumad]

That's the most enjoyable video of yours I've ever seen. The clever opening mechanisms, the carefully chosen music, the gigantism of the project, the smiles on your faces... Thank you!

[@stilcrazychris]

You sir are a jack of all trades. Just like my Dad was. RIP Pops. Just in all of that shop you've built. Plus you have so cool toys. Keep up these great videos. I watch just so I know tools. Bc God knows I sure the HELL wouldn't even try to do some of the stuff that you do. Chris from Missouri

[@timberdish]

Not hard to see that you and JD made a really great job of those doors. Love the mechanisms you've got going on as latches etc - Nice one Jimmy :)

[@spencespencer3814]

Wow Jimmy RRBuildings work paid off. Cant wait to see your upcoming videos sir.

[@CraigRippon]

That was brilliant - I could not think of those tricky mechanisms in a million years

[@MikeBramm]

Every cathedral needs large doors. Nice work.

[@celticwarrior916]

Thank you for sharing so many of your projects and adventures with us! It really helps motivate me, to keep getting out in the shop.

[@GetMeThere1]

Ah well...I love these doors and those mechanisms. It has to be said, though: The sliding door is an easier, cheaper, and more robust choice structurally. Sliding doors have been working like gangbusters on barns for well over a HUNDRED YEARS (in fact I have a couple that are that old and working great). Futhermore, sliding doors are not nearly as susceptible to hindrance from a couple of feet of snow, as these will be. A sliding big door containing a human door (as you did here) would be ideal. All of which doesn't change the fact that I LOVED watching this video!!! Nice job!

[@EveryDadDIY]

Wow, Thats is amazing work, What a huge project. making the double lock mechanism was awesome, never seen that before. Well done.

[@jonholt201]

Man those locking mechanisms were the coolest.

[@taylorhud]

That place is badass! Diresta is honestly a genius

[@girliedog]

Another great video, thank you. Those Fireball squares are a revelation​ for fabrication.

[@user-dw6cb6hw2s]

Строительный рай, все есть в сша. Как мастеру там легче, но в СССР настоящие Кулибины. Джими вы супер.

[@jdgindustries2734]

Yet another awesome video on the construction of the maker temple. However, as long as it's been without siding, I'm thinking you should have installed the zip boards on their side. You could have just used a clearcoat sealer, and claimed they were giant-sized, earth-friendly, (read: green) bricks 😁. Thanks for sharing the process with us Jimmy!

[@sportstertaco]

When I grow up I want a shop like that. Holy wow!!

[@NJFLIPPER]

WOW, The doors are great! The locks and deadbolts are just Amazing Jimmy!! Thanks. Be Safe!!

[@WayWoodworking]

That large locking mechanism is killer!

[@VartaBok]

Epic build, the barn door swing >> last seen over 100 years ago

[@diva2042]

the fabrication of the hardware is fantastic

[@Yellow.Dog.]

Sweet! I wouldn't expect anything less from the two of you.

[@DaveDaHunt3R]

i'm shocked by how you continue to amaze us with your crafting skills! those locking mechanism are insane!! You're the biggest inspiration for all of us makers! Thx Jimmy!

[@aaronblakely5873]

Hey Jimmy I am endlessly impressed at your ability to get old stuff to look just right where you put it. In my minds eye I had thought you'd plane, sand and finish those boards but once everything was done I could see why you did what you did. It looks at home.

[@imbok]

It's impressive that the angle frames were completely rigid enough without any kind of sag bracing. Nice welding job and I really dug the heavy duty pin-hinges. Hard core!

[@Stubones999]

That's a real shop! Way to go, Jimmy!

[@dominicdelprincipe2583]

wow. one of the best things about this is the sounds echoing from the mechanism at the end. Incredible!

[@RookieLock]

I love the Door-in-Door! Great work from both you and JD!

[@jackbrennan8723]

The inside of that building is majestic. So inspiring. xo

[@jonwills4670]

I love how you include when JD is giving you tips! We never stop learning!!

[@singJJBplay]

Those are some bomb-proof hinges. Love the overall end product!

[@IanLConnors]

I know I should be used to it by now, but your brilliance always surprises me.

[@matthewyoung917]

Absolutely love those final shots of the Maker Church

[@protect.your.digits.creations]

I love the "Keystone Cops " speed.... Every time I see another finished part of the Maker Mansion completed it makes me very happy for you my brother and I feel the knowledge that will be pulsing from it will help the world of Creators. The pilot light is BLAZING !!!!!! Stay well my brother

[@rcollinge5818]

Every time he uses that speed mode it reminds me of Benny Hill. Amazing video skills!!!!

[@mohammedtroy4296]

two mad men that i respect alot the godfather jimmy and the beast JD

[@giovannifiorentino8947]

First time I see wood being welded and it looks great!

[@masterofnone]

Doors turned out great guys. 👏👏👏👏👏Great work JD, Jimmy and Brett.

[@pimuir]

Jimmy, once again you've inspired me on many levels: metal working, reclaimed wood, framing, welding, hinges, locks and oh so much more. Thanks for taking the time to capture it, edit it and share it! Cheers!

[@404BOOMER]

Cool doors. Like the clever locking mechanisms. Like the music goin on in the video. The doors if not beefy enough can always be upgraded later. The shop is awesome. I love it.

[@focalplane3063]

I can't wait to see the 3 inches of frost on the inside of the doors in the middle of winter. Metal is a great conductor of cold.

[@GregAlanEdwardsEmmanuelRidge]

Love those big heavy hinges... I know it's probably a little overkill, but it's nice to never have to worry about them failing

[@arfink]

It would be nice, but there aren't any grease fittings, so that plus the doors racking wildly from having no corner bracing means it will probably fail all too quickly.

[@rootorecreations9844]

these are my favorite barn doors ever...from the materials to the hinges to the locks. Everything is awesome. Love it Jimmy!

[@anthonyjones657]

I love your style Jimmy. Westernish music with some huge barn doors.

[@velholobodomar4484]

Espetacular! Que serviço profissional, parabéns!

[@thegentlemanmaker]

Fantastic! You’ve taught me plenty there that I will attempt on a much smaller scale. Thanks chaps.

[@jamesweil3470]

I love the barn doors, they look great. The only problem I see with them is if you have a strong wind blowing towards the doors during a rainstorm Waters going to come in. You might want to think about making lap joints or possibly TNG to make it a little more watertight.

[@HercoVanDyk]

Those hand made mechanisms! 😍 Absolutely love the simplicity behind it. Amazing how quick you get something working if you don't have to worry about the wear, maintenance or serviceable parts... If it breaks, there's just another opportunity to create it again. Very well done Jimmy! Love the large projects you are doing these days. Can't wait for the canoe video!

[@w.w.oklahoma6010]

Jimmy is has to be a great kick working with other Masters of the Trades??? I sure enjoy the shop build projects, thanks for taking us along, w.w..

[@DaddyBear3000]

I haven’t had one of your vids pop in my feed for a while, but randomly thought today, “I wonder what’s happening with the Diresta ranch?” Progress! Although I can’t see barn doors without thinking of The Walking Dead anymore 😜

[@vladimirpronyashin2707]

Навески шикарные получились, но желательно было выточить посадочное место на оси под шарик из подшипника. Так как масса двери приличная и она так будет легче открываться. А сверху или сбоку верхней навески просверлить отверстие и сделать тавотницу для возможности смазывания петель

[@tigre123tigre]

Sometimes I wonder "omg he never miss a single piece of steel". Awsome!

[@kaycox5555]

Awesome! Can't believe you all accomplished this huge project so (what appears to be) quickly.....and can't believe how brave you men are to weld with beards!!!!! Congrats.

[@nobelhobel]

I love this workshop and the incredible gate. Best Greetings from the Hunsrück Highlands Germany

[@felixfelix6770]

Most impressive. Simple and stunning. Love it.

[@80zbabyz]

Amazing job. I'm blown away.

[@FigmentsMade]

These doors are great and I love the vertical bolt system! I can't wait to see the whole building finished to see your full vision.

[@Lostinafreezer]

Great video Jimmy! Awesome work by both you and JD.

[@Mcphilsmith]

Great job Jimmy, JD, and Brett. You should be proud of this.

[@shanefelber5977]

Love those hinges! Genius! 👍🏼👍🏼

[@ilmondodimassi]

I would be watching you work for hours and hours. Thank you teacher. Max

[@X3WorkshopDesigns]

Awesome build Jimmy! I'm blown away at how simple you make things look. My girlfriend, however, has a concern. Since she loves her silver fox she wants you to next time use a ladder when grinding the welds instead of using that apple box.

[@Cephalon_Shade]

Watching these get built was great! I love the locking mechanism, that was my favorite part of the vid.

[@AwesomeWoodThings]

Those doors are INSANE! Insanely awesome! The hinges blew me away. They're crazy!

[@oxintheshop]

Great looking doors!!!! Way cooler than my roll up doors. Good job jimmy and JD

[@jdbrewer6638]

Thanks, Drew!

[@jarkolimbo9268]

Genius. Thanks for the video. Nicely fabricated!!!

[@djameldjam1176]

The true meaning of professionalism 😘

[@RameezLalloo]

great to see progress on the Dream Shop

[@jeffgannon1]

Bravo! Always something very satisfying about barn door building! And I’m glad someone still stick welds every now and then.

[@steve4675]

Very nice work. The door in door reminds me of an old shop from the nineteen teens or twenties. I love it.

[@user-ok9lb1vt8c]

Shops not done yet but there is a swing. Amazing

[@0ohoaxo0]

Should have tapped a zerk fitting for those hinges to pump grease into them when needed

[@OldIronShops]

I was thinking that to but you beat me to it

[@aniket.khade27]

Loved the locking mechanisms. Everything looks built to last a lifetime.

[@michaelofficer1331]

The door mechanism's pretty clever. Nice work.

[@ambroscustom]

Fantastic work Mr. Jimmy as expected from you.

[@pacificnorthwestnative5050]

So much love went into those beautiful doors!! Very cool!!

[@Denali822]

Awesome job JD and Jimmy! Love the shot of JD rockin' out while burning rod at 8:41. :)

[@williepirie5329]

Awesome seeing your vision coming to life

[@fernndl]

Parabéns DiResta pelo trabalho. Um abraço do seu fã aqui do Brasil.

[@jmakes3745]

The door mechanisms are genius! Great job jimmy!
