Thats some smart ways to get stuff positioned by yourself. I feel like im watching my dad 🥹

[@kookiethebear]

I like the design, but the construction methods pose many long-term issues. A ledger board attached to the house would have made the build easier, and stronger (less prone to side loads). The post footers need to be twice their size and belled at the bottom to prevent uplift. The post footer brackets appear to only be connected with one lag screw per side; if so, this creates a dangerous pivot moment. Additionally, the brackets should only be 1 to 2 inches (25.5 - 51mm) off the ground. At their current height, shearing is a significant risk. The birds mouths for the upper stringers are way too long and missing the ties. Even if rafter ties are not required by your municipality, they should be installed to provide a solid, safe connection. Lastly, the roof needs to be flashed against the house to prevent water from rotting the top post, and the stove/heat pipe roof penetration needs to be sealed. There are several high-heat options, a hi-temp silicone boot being the easiest and least expensive overall. This post is being made to protect other viewers planning to copy this build, not to be negative about Robert's work/video.

[@krillin022]

make a video on it

[@miniconsolemods7796]

Amazing. Simple craftsmanship that looks like thousands of dollars worth of work. Greetings from Southern California. I need one of these for the blazing sun.

[@klerobi1]

Thanks and welcome

[@ss_whole]

You are one innovative SOB

[@oscarjimenezgomez1372]

Increible, me has dado buenas ideas para mis trabajos en solitaro...ahora mismo estoy cambiando mi tejado a dos aguas a uno con "Clerestorio" o ventanal a un lado de la cumbrera...yo solo. Alucino como te salen las cosas a la primera...yo siempre tengo que hacer retoques

[@klerobi1]

Muy bien 👍🙂

[@fergferguson7370]

Really smart video…very creative although I agree with many that critiqued with code type issues.

Robert hvala za deljenje tvojega mojstrskega dela. Res si naredil preprosto in spretno brez dodatne pomoči. Dal si mi navdih, da tudi sam poskusim narediti podobno.

[@klerobi1]

Perfektno Mitja, hvala za obisk 👍🙂

[@mitjakolaric3899]

Če smem dodati, zakaj se nisi odločil obesiti tram na fasado? Sam razmišljam, da ga pritrdim s sidri v ploščo in se tako izognem vertikalnim stebrom ob fasadi.

Very nice! I like how you connected to the house without actually attaching to the structure saving demolition and engineering time! Would have traded the 2x2's for 2x4's, how did you not fall through?

Top Job, Well done, I loved the use of the 'Creeping Props' to stand the heavy frames to a vertical position. Using the chain saw to remove the Birdsmouth excess was very clever. All round a fantastic job, carried out safely, by one man. Cheers from Michael. Australia.

[@dacedruss]

great job , but how come you didn't nail in the roof tiles to the batons, if you get some high winds then some of your tiles will go flying, I have never seen someone use an angle grinder as a planer before either but it seemed to work a treat

[@klerobi1]

We don't have such strong winds. Thanks for the visit

[@kriptokazan1]

Muhteşem

[@drew_idea]

Very nice!

[@klerobi1]

Thanks for the visit

[@cesarpintor9776]

Hey Robert hi ,first time watching your videos. Nice job and looks great. I have a question on the tiles you used I've been trying to find something like those are they light concrete or composite type material? Could you leave a link for them thanks. Cesar

[@klerobi1]

They are quite heavy concrete www.sbs-trgovina.si/izdelek/betonska-kritina-bramac-klasik-novo-rubin/ one m2 costs around €5

[@giseless3113]

Parabéns , muito bom

[@klerobi1]

Muchas gracias 🙂👍

[@mericgozukucuk2713]

Great job! How much time did it take to build it?

[@klerobi1]

one week

[@mateostabio]

How has it held up after 1 year? I see you used long screws into the endgrain of the posts and beam, has it twisted there? Or the screws were strong enough?

[@alive-awake]

Wow, you're not only talented, you have quite a bit of patience doing this all by yourself. What is the material of the tiles like? Is it like our Arizona tiles?

[@klerobi1]

These are made of concrete, thank you 🙂

[@isyt1]

No lead flashing to stop the rain running down the wall?

[@papapio13]

Great work. What are the dimensions of the woods?

[@keithkachnovich2863]

What about the gap between roof and side of your house, rain will just pour through?

[@klerobi1]

it's a job for a tinker

[@MegredyPhotoStudio]

Nice job! But how did you square the roof ?

[@klerobi1]

Measure so that everything is square

[@Stealthbobber06]

Great video! How did you secure your shingles?

[@klerobi1]

They just lay down

[@charlesbarden2680]

Looks awesome. How did you attach it to the house so it doesn’t pinch the stucco or leak? I’m looking to do this on my house.

[@klerobi1]

This will come the worker and will form the sheet metal on between the wall and the roof.

[@IRV707]

Hey Robert I like the video, good job. I wanted to ask you, how did you end up closing that space with the vent pipe on the roof? I noticed you used a grinder but didnt see you seal up that space? Also in the video you dont show how you attached the ledger board to the stucco wall. Lastly, the way the roof tiles are added wont rain get behind them and drip? Your answers are appreciated. Keep up the good work.

[@wileycoyotesr8623]

Good project. Do the doors open to a work shop or garage?

[@klerobi1]

To the garage. Thank you very much 🙂👍

[@dynoesaur]

I really want to add a couple of feet of patio to my front porch, but I'm kind of skeptical about starting a project, not even knowing where to start 🤔

[@selimshahaj699]

Start from the beginning, that would be a good choice

[@TheJosip1000]

how deep and what exactly did you use to drill thru the beam, into the house wall?

[@klerobi1]

I think the screws were 28 cm long and 8 mm thick, they were screwed in about 12 cm deep.

[@icnewer]

@@klerobi1 do you need to drill a hole into the wall first? Is it the concert wall? And do you need to find the stud first to drill the hole there? Or you can drill a hole first every where since it's the concrete wall? Wonderful project, it motivated me to try doing my own one after watching your great work here 👍

[@Artoconnell]

Are the shingles attached? I must have overlooked that part of the vid?

[@klerobi1]

No, the roof tiles are just laid
