Always use the tractor, when you can, to lift walls. The tractor makes it safer. When you two had the wall section standing, a breeze could have blown it over. Trying to save the wall is when someone gets hurt. Those wall braces are not enough. They need better anchor cleats to hold the walls in a strong wind gust. Hopefully you won't get any wind until the framing is finished. When I was 17, I saw a 7 story steel frame for a building blowdown. 13 men were killed and several other mangled. It wasn't braced. Another good video. Good Luck, Rick

What is even greater than the house build is your kids see you work on a huge task and getting it done. Who knows, maybe one day they will have the confidence to take on their own huge task. Just as importantly is they can see how much you and your husband love each other. It is precious. 😥😃😃😃😍😎

Rushing Wind Mountain -Yes, This house build may progress just as fast as a work crew that isn't able to stay on the job, for whatever reason. Our farm cottage was built in 2016. It was a simple modular that came in two halves. You would think that is a piece of cake... Well, we experienced every MURPHY'S LAW situation you can imagine! Our woodland property house site sits on a fairly steep hill in central NH. We have only one way in, that has a brook with a bridge. The original crane company canceled last minute, stating they wanted our small rural town hall to insure their crane if it fell into the brook! We scrambled to find a smaller crane who would cross the bridge. Found a guy in VT, who had no problem. Then the carpenter crew had issues. They were only a few guys and had multiple reasons they could not show up. Then our house halves got separated after leaving the PA manufacturer. One half ended up stuck in VT because it was not allowed to travel over wet/rainy roads. We hired another private trucker to rescue us! He managed to park one half on the main farm and stay with the 2nd half in VT. And so adventures went on and on... The trucker needed a running start to get those halves up the steep driveway. I have to say both the crane operator and our long haul trucker were well past the age of retirement and they were an awesome pair for cowboys! They got the job figured out and done!

you might want to cut a number of braces the same length and mitred at a 45 deg angle both ends and then secure them to 2x4s screwed flat on the floor. gives you more holding power than just a bunch of screws or nails at the very corners of the braces. just trying to help you out.

First wall June 15, 1987. Dried in September 30, 1987. 3200 sq ft house on two levels. We DID have a grounds crew (small college campus) who came to help us stand up the big walls - 20' wide, 18' high, and 26' wide x 12' high. ALL with a framing hammer and nails, as we had no compressor. In fact, we did it all with a generator - line up the boards all marked and cut, start the generator, cut, and then nail together. Would not trade that time for ANYthing, but is WAS hard, Hard, HARD at times. Oh yeah....the 6"x16" roof beams were lifted into place with the college crane, too.... :-) It's SO nostalgic watching you do this -- our kids were right there with us, too - and we're enjoying it immensely. Thanks, also for your witness to what's important!

"Learning opportunities" - love that Jeremy! Should be part of every parent's vocabulary. Would keep kids from thinking that they fail at what they think is everything. An opportunity to learn means they keep their self-esteem intact. Wish I'd known that growing up. I love that you let your kids help in the build. Builds more than muscle. Builds integrity and character. I love that you brings us along the nature walks to discover more! Melissa, it is not incredible; it's credible - believable! You're both working hard to lay not only the foundation of your home but anchoring your family's life in Idaho. Keep smiling, keep stretching. That's how God loves helping us. It's in the tough times that He walks with us, lifts us up and stretches the rubber band so that we reach the goals he has set before us. Take care. Stay safe.

Just a suggestion: it’s customary to fasten the support braces at the floor by temporarily nailing a short piece of lumber (12-16”) flat on the floor and then nailing the support brace into the side of this short piece of lumber. It just gives you more nailing surface for the bottom of your support brace with more nails. Handy in a strong wind👍

Yes, nail a short 2x4 flat on the floor deck and then nail the wall brace into the side of the 2x4. Doing this will make the bracing sturdier and less likely to move.

Came here to make the same comment but with a couple of changes. You might want to consider using longer 2x6's. Attach them closer to the top plate. A 45° angle would be optimal. Instead of nailing the 2x4 to the deck, try screwing it. It's much easier to make fine adjustments. Might also want to consider bracing every 10 ft in case the wind picks up really hard.

Guys, before you raise walls, toe nail the footers on their end into the deck along the length before you assemble the wall. Space it back roughly the width of the board from the edge... then, the wall will hinge on the nails as you lift it and it won't kick off the side. Check out Larry Hahn's videos on youtube, he is the OG framer!

I am so impressed with how hard working both of you are! The house build is hard but fitting in daily chores and raising three kids is EPIC! Oh yeah I smile every time Daddy call his wife Momma because I still do the same thing after 38 years of being married!

We need a love button. Thumbs up just don’t seem adequate. Good job you two. I find myself looking for every new video every day. Love the time off for the kiddos.

Love your progress on the build, and what a great family day. Those snow-topped mountains on the other side of Lake Pend Oreille were like a cherry on top.

So so exciting to watch you build your home.......I wish the posts were day by day it's so enjoyable. LOL It is huge and I cannot wait to see and watch and travel these days with you.......love your family and what you stand for and yes........I can say after 54 years of marriage to date it is important to have ice cream and loafing days in life those you will remember for sure as the other days fade that are all the same. Make the happy moments as happy as you can. The home build is going beautifully and love your tricks and how you are doing things. Your children will realize one day how beautiful their family lives and how wonderful their parents are. Take care and keep that snack belt full........lots yet to do and fun fun watching you!!! Blessings

Thank you so much guys, for sharing your journey with us. We particularly are touched to be able to share in some of your family time together. Such a joy to see a loving caring family enjoying time together. It is brilliant too, that you both are aware of the need to down tools and spend quality time as a family. Keep up the great work and us two Aussies will continue to feel blessed to be a part of what you're doing.

I don't know if you realise this, but you are giving your children their parents forever young with these videos. You guys are building a future lifestyle for your children. The day will come when you are no longer young & unable to do what you do today. Building this home for your family is a great achievement. Well done you. What I take from your videos is, you have given your children long lasting memories of their parents throughout the years. Many of us have only snap shot photos . Your children have your voice & laughter. As an elderly parent, I can't do what I did two decades ago & would loved to have this technology. Your building this beautiful house for your kids, but these videos are more precious. Your children are truly blessed.
