Framing Windows In Our POLE BARN | E8

[@josemarquez86]

Smoke for those yellowjackets theres nest somewhere make burn woods and wet two or three wood. Also wait unit spring time termite swarm lemon julice & smoke.

[@danielkemp1442]

I recently found your channel and I am binge watching the shop build. I am super impressed by you both

[@AmbitionStrikes]

Thanks for watching! 😊

[@davedavis662]

You need a lift or movable scaffolding. Buy them both are easy to sell after you are finished , might lose a little money but no where near as much as renting every time. Safety is priceless and the work will go much faster.

[@robertevans6481]

99.5k maybe by Friday you guys be at 100k...a early congrats...hope the rain helps out with the dust and smoke. Its coming along very nice.

[@erichuggins09]

Brother, you have to be one of the luckiest men alive. She and you are the DREAM TEAM. THERE IS no way that you can lose. Blessings to both of you and I can't wait till the next show. 🤠🤠🤠

[@alaindecosse4956]

Ambition Strikes The antidepressant. To watch without moderation. Thank you for your good humor.🤩

[@TdrSld]

Add blocking to the top of the insides of all the windows a doors for curtains and blinds. It makes life SO much easier when you're trying to mount them. I would also double the width of the deck where the sliding door is, make it the slider and the window and you will have a nice wide place to seat and look at the lake. Love the build.

[@AmbitionStrikes]

That is an amazing tip, thank you so much for sharing!!

[@aaronmkeith1622]

I just found your channel and I am super excited. I want to do this really bad. I just have to get the wife on board! Now I have to go back and watch your old videos and catch up on where you are!

[@AmbitionStrikes]

Thanks for joining our adventure Aaron! We are so in love with our slice of off-grid land.

[@lory2622]

I figured it out, why I enjoy this channel as much as I do. You guys provide my life with more “small victories” and “obstacles overcome”. My wife and I are getting the keys to our little bit of paradise in about two weeks, then I too get to make small victories with two shops. Thanks for the vicarious joy.

[@AmbitionStrikes]

Taking on a big project can be SO overwhelming. I do my best to take in the small victories, and I am so glad that we get to share them with you all!

[@alphatruckhouse8223]

Oh my holy Guac !! you guys are killin it !! My brain hurts just watching , let alone all you have figured out . So cool to see and watch , thankyou for sharing !! still hoping to meet you at overland expo in Flagstaff . I got my spot !! ~peace~

Its look like a couple i see Jake and nicole offthegrid I love this kind of video content more blessing the two of you 🙏

[@damianzanolli1845]

I live up in pennsylvania and help build pole buildings. My friends and I found out that some times yellow jackets are attracted to the fresh wood, especially some types of pine along with the treated lumber and the saw dust made in the building of the framing. So we hang up a lot of hornet traps around the site and burn Coleman Citronella Candle Lanterns around the site . A word of caution though, just be careful how you set them up so you don't create a fire hazard. Great video, can't wait to see everything when done.

[@AmbitionStrikes]

Wow, I've never heard that before but it makes complete sense!

[@richb8061]

Guys the outtakes at the end are freakin funny. Speaking of funny, did anyone else notice that the music at the very beginning sounded like music from a 70’s adult movie 😂

Finally,,,, you purchased a real generator!!! YEA!!!. I'm a small engine mechanic for 40 years. I know what breaks and what last forever and that's what I own. When it comes time to winterize it let me know. There is a simple way to do it and it never fails to start next time out.

[@maartenstraver3737]

hey guys, the missus and i enjoyed this episode on your build, lovely to see what you are accomplishing. Keep up the good work 👍 ps: please consider putting back your riving knife on the tablesaw ( i thought it was not inserted). And do not use gloves while cutting, if you are tired and make a mistake the blade will not only cut a finger but grab your glove and pull your hand into the blade. Gloves off and use a pushstick!

[@reoneill51]

Great advice. Please think safety. Keep those fingers!! Pushsticks are cheaper than surgery.

[@AmbitionStrikes]

We totally agree with gloves off, but feel there is a right time and place for a pushstick and this was not one of them. The safest tool is the one that is in control, and while a pushstick gets your hand further away from the blade it also takes away quite a bit of control from the work piece.

[@ejcastro9518]

When I was in my late teens, I went to a company picnic w my family. I was drinking rootbeer and eating a burger. There were bees in the area but I never expected one to dive into my rootbeer. So I took a swig of my soda and a bee stung the roof of my mouth. I immediately spit out all the food and drink in my mouth. A tad embarrassing so I made sure they knew a bee stung me. Your project is looking good and coming along quickly. Good job 😃

[@AmbitionStrikes]

Yikes! Sounds like you and Riley are in a club I don't want to be in!

[@chombi84]

Great effort guys, my head hurts from all those window measurements 🤣🤣🤣👍

[@mr.miraclemantm.6455]

Nice work with the windows. I was taking an old patio door set to the dump laying mostly flat, hit a bump in the road and the glass shattered. It doesn`t take much when they are flat, thats why they ship glass upright on a slight angle. If i was there, i would go on a hunt to find the wasp nests, mark them out, then go back just before dark and empty some cans of wasp killer! Go on the offensive and attack!!! lol But stay safe. Take care

[@ORSkie]

I came on here to mention that there's a good reason that glass companies bring out all the windows upright! Glad to see that someone mentioned it in a timely manner. 👍

[@johnoatley8586]

[@slidewayzm5]

Safety tip! When using the table saw, use a piece of scrap wood cut with a notch in it as a pusher stick to keep your fingers and hand far from the blade. Keep all of them fingers so you can continue this great build! A scrap 2x4 a couple feet long cut in half into a 2x2 with a 1x1 corner notch works well. Keep up the great work 👌🏻🇨🇦

[@rushd45]

Very nice, I hope that you use spray in insulation. It seals everything so well and makes for a much more closed building envelope so that heating and cooling is much more efficient. You might even think about putting radiant heating tubes in the floor for future use, with all that wood around you, you'll have free heating.

[@deanhatch4179]

That is the way we went. I will never second guess that choice.

[@brentderksen]

I completely understand the window/bathroom placement situation. Symmetry is important. I had the same predicament with a window on either side of our bed...

You may want to buy a cheap chain block. When you starting lifting glass that pulley system will be hard. Gloves, safety glasses and a push stick! Love watching.. thanks

I would suggest a small boiler and run glycol lines in the concrete floor of your shop. also the driveway come winter you will love not having to remove snow off the driveway. is very economical very efficient and easy to build. you can heat the glycol several ways.

If you use a heat gun on the stickers on the side of the trailer they will peal right off by had with out scraping and to remove the glue you can use a product called Goof Off that will not damage the paint and leave a shiny finish.

I see people using their dump truck as a crane by securing a long timber or tree stalk in the back end of the dump bed, secure it to the front of the bed top so that it is sticking way out past the front of the truck. raising the bed (dumping) raises the front of the pole
