Garage roof framing

[@hischildjo4693]

I've been following this project from the start and it has been nothing short of spectacular! I'm amazed at how much the guys have accomplished in such a short amount of time. I must sound like a broken record because I keep mentioning this, but really, if ya'll have a chance to peek in live on Twitch while they are working, it really is the best front row seat to have and is so much fun. Time permitting, we all interact with the guys and Nate is always making sure we have the best visual so we can see what's going on. When he puts out the long video updates like this, he brings it all together! Thank you, Nate! (side note: Nice to have you back home Jen!) ❤

[@Canadianvoice]

Where do you get money to do this?

[@DaphineLedford]

He has several business as well a a content for people like you and me She is Jen coming home? Do you think Will should build kitchen on same level as the rest of his home E ❤🎉🎉p🎉

​@@Canadianvoicehe has his platforms that he gets paid from watching, liking and if you want, you can donate. He also has a storefront with lots of goodies from coffee to beard oil and other merch.

Az's house is huge.

[@Luke-A]

He is 3 quarter horse needs somewhere big!

[@brockjanecic8469]

Would be cool to see a narroway homestead sign on the front of the garage

[@terriwetz6077]

The smile on Nate's face at the beginning of the video says it all! One idea is to add a small balcony to the top floor of the garage. It could be a sweet spot for taking breaks.

[@PRO4XKEV]

I saw that smile to.

[@toaster3822]

Duude this is the dream. A huge congrats to you. Keep up the hard work! The extra oversized side door is brilliant.

[@2penry2]

Dang that's so awesome you're building a dog house that'll fit AZ

[@Logan.Winter]

I'm so glad you're finally getting to live you're dream, can't wait to see the house next

[@WindwalkerHomestead]

Love the garage build. I haven't watched your videos for too long, but I do remember you living in the camper and soon after, moving into the living quarters. We are currently living in a camper, building our own homestead, so we know many of the troubles you went through💪😎

[@conniephillips8217]

Absolutely SWEET!!! So much fun and well planned!

[@gloriahernandez7882]

Thank you Nate for including us! This is an awesome building! Your crew is amazing!

[@roycemoney]

I would move into the garage! It's looking fantastic !

[@ktkt9982]

It's looking wonderful. You are beaming. Yes lots and lots and lots happened in the last year. Thank you for sharing with us. ❤

[@turtle1723]

That damaged rafter can be stiffened up by adding some ripped down plywood to both sides.

[@mihalyjanosfeher3348]

Damn these guys are pretty decent and this is going way faster than i thought! Nice work from them!

[@taylorpickup7386]

Amazing to see something like this come to life! Congratulations!!! 🎉

[@seanlavoie2]

I still think people would love to replicate the outdoor kitchen look. After watching most of his videos I understand the purpose of the outdoor kitchen and appreciate its style. Maybe in person it’s easier to see what might need changing, but on camera not from a distance it’s fully of style. Modern rustic chic.

[@michaelsweeney6666]

One of the best framing jobs I’ve seen better built than most homes all the cuts are nice and tight most places u see 1/4 gaps everywhere they are very good

[@VanPebble]

Not to sound like a fast food franchise, but I'm loving this...

[@odeode4338]

Can I get fries with that?

[@Rose-jz6ix]

Hubby looked at the top floor and said "trains". He has a small obsession with trains. 😊 Step by step your dreams are coming true 🎉

[@vjcodec]

NATE, IT LOOKS AMAZING! 💪 9:14 this looks like a nice diy filling project.

[@maximiliandort3489]

super cool to follow the process of this build. Will you make a breakdown of final cost when it's finished? Understandable if not, but it'd be very interesting, and maybe help others in their decisionmaking for similar ideas.

[@joannefazenbaker1448]

I never imagined it was going to be so big! I want one 😂

[@hamstersmash]

Can't wait to see the finished build and what you do with it to make it really your own

[@aizhongwen]

Congratulations dear family and pet friends, the new garage homestead is wonderful, look forward for your cozy stay in the best awesome home. God bless your good works. Pawshakes for lord Minion Az and chick duck friends.👑 🐕🐩👑🙂😃👑

[@ScottWigfield-jc3ku]

The garage is awesome been watching it and the progress is moving forward quickly 😊

[@bigman-jm5mf]

With the solar you have a major advantage of having lived with it there for a while and learning how to best optimize your ability there. Also with the contractor the fact you’re having to nit pick to find “issues” says a lot about the job they did.

[@lynettesherburne]

Lovely to see your dreams become reality and with such nice people too 😁💙

[@woodrowmuse8437]

Looks great! I’d leave all the other structures it’s part of the homestead history ❤

[@scubaseppy]

Really cool to see you pumped on your new garage!

[@jg-bd3hr]

There's a lot of comments so this may have already been said but have you thought about putting in a gable door? You could put in a retractable I-beam with pulleys on rollers so you can lift up heavy stuff and roll it into the upstairs. The balcony idea is good as well because you can have a nice spot to sit and relax and enjoy the views. With the balcony being there you could do the I-beam over the balcony to lift stuff up and sit it down on the balcony then take it inside as well. Between the balcony and the building you can do a triple sliding door so you can open it up big enough for different size items. Sure beats lugging stuff upstairs especially if you're living alone. You could do an inside lift so when you get older it will act like an elevator saving you having to struggle up the stairs. It will deter from flooring space, just put furniture on it. this way you can lower down sitting your favorite recliner and have a lift you up. Have it big enough that you can put items on it and let it lift the supplies up with it. It would be way more complex and expensive to do but it would allow you to back the stuff into the garage and load out of the weather. I guess the main point would be a personal elevator. Not sure on the lifting mechanism. You could do an in floor pair of pistons to lift it or a cable system. Cable system would get in the way though unless you slide in Support's under the floor when it's at the top and just disconnect the cables. Hydraulic system depending on where you locate it. You could connect it to the piece of floor like a forklift that way they're not blocking space inside the garage. So many ways this could be done to mention here. Your garage looks great and is giving me ideas for my own property.

[@JessupJon]

What a SWEET SETUP!!!

[@93tjfresh]

Awesome bro ! I’m excited to see its completion and see how it changes things for you !

[@dylenrobertsj3417]

Hope your home looks just as nice as your garage soon ❤

[@kelly_1984]

That is really awesome to see take shape! Yes have awnings all over for shade and to shed rain away from the garage. 😎👍🍺

[@dalam8538]

Thrilled for you, and love the spot you pointed out for your home!!!!

[@Waveluth]

Nate, when I built my similar size barn/garage I also opted for a 20’ door. After a lot of thought I decided to install 4-5’ wide doors all hinged so that they open like a closet door. They work flawlessly and after 20 years they still swing and hang perfect. It was also about 1/4 of the price of an installed door. No hardware to deal with, no electric openers etc….. plus it looks amazing. Your guys can build them on site out of 2” x 3”’s and shiplap or T&G. Either way , they work great. One heavy metal channel holds the HD rubber wheels in place. You just screw the wheel hardware on and lift them into the roller track. Trust me it will save money and add a wicked cool architectural feel. I’m a retired architect/builder. You’re doing a great job with your land, your projects and especially your personal life. That girl has made you a better person. The good ones always do🤣 and you clearly have a good one. Plus those dogs and cats are a hoot!! Love your content buddy good luck ok. ✌️🇺🇸😎

[@jojofromthaburg6247]

This is the coolest build on KZbin currently 👌

[@snowmanrainmaker]

Have you seen Colin Firs underground project

[@Brenda70707]

Looks great! I would love a garage that big.

[@CorkyMak]

I love the new garage it’s so grand! I do have a question though. How much extra property tax does that big building add?

[@d.r2533]

Looking great! So excited for you and this build!

[@macromicrodragon]

Check out Augwind’s battery tech, they use tanks of compressed air and water for energy storage. It would be sweet to see ya do something like that to augment your off grid rigidity!

[@dianarising7703]

Are you going to reuse the present solar panels for the southeast bank and buy brand new ones for the garage rooftop? I like the idea of a little overhang over the garage doors, because you can put gutters on them and direct the water out of your way. The garage looks great. Knowing how things always go, I think it was wise to make it as big as you did. Things always come up that you want to do or store. You can get the stuff out of your half-storage building that you want to keep and organize them upstairs. I thought the side areas upstairs would be good for storing big things out of the way.

[@hondofourfivetwo9347]

The garage is looking sweet but the outdoor kitchen is still my favorite among all your buildings 😋

[@FLYNNER.]

DETROIT HERE AGAIN STAY GRITTY ✌️ LOOKING LIKE A SUCCESS.. NICE

[@mike_f_S]

That's going to be an awesome garage Nate, happy for you guys and what's to come. That second level is huge but I'm sure it'll be really hot up there in the summer months.

[@betsyschneider5740]

I am so happy for you.Everything is just falling into place Looks great. When is jen coming back miss her.

[@ireadalota]

This is great practice for planning and building your house.

[@iamthe2345]

I remember the camper and i think the start of the storage building (now living area). This is, like every progress you make, a very exciting thing to follow 😁👍 Have you thought about making a series of longer formats about how it went from the beginning till now in large chunks at the time?

[@creekchick331]

Love the overhangs!!

[@tommcfarlane940]

im half way through the video. good work Nate, thank you for your content brother .

[@zoeycarter154]

Yeah you can get Jen to get me fabric and the details I need to make your outdoor kitchen curtains for the shelves!! 😊

[@Theultimateginger]

See on how big this has come out makes me wonder how big the house will eventually be, it looks awesome and can’t wait to see finished

[@agrammie5668]

Just a thought …..maybe put a dumbwaiter in, help with orders and such🌹lookin Good, love your vision!

[@jofrazier-hansen4097]

I love the outdoor kitchen.

[@DATBAYOUBOY504]

It looks awesome. Great work bro.

[@hubertanderson7044]

That’s a fabulous garage love it and the guys are doing great

[@robertplocke]

That's a big asset garage Nate! Hurray!

[@willieallan953]

I love your attitude about "stuff." I'm trying the k.i.s.s. theory, and it doesn't always work!

[@jorm2528]

What a sweet garage.

[@2penry2]

Looks awesome, could have the upper floor as a games room / man cave.

[@PRO4XKEV]

You will need gutters to prevent soil erosion.. the 6 inch K style is what I use. standard is 5 inch, 6 looks better and flows more water. If you do this use the screens so you never have to clean leaves from the gutters.

[@briannicholls2628]

I feel like you should frame a wall between the garage and the shop on the fiest floor. It will help with stoage and organizing the shop. Leave a large 4' or 5' opening for a doorway between the two spaces.

[@deiadraper6358]

Wow going to need another set of steps for the other end

[@scottmccloud9029]

Love the garage Nate. Lot of potential you have there.

[@Jane_Friday]

Wise to plan into old age, which a lot of homeowners don't consider, when they build in their younger years.

[@ronyerke9250]

Maybe sister/sandwich that weak rafter with some laminated plywood and some through bolts. It seems like a chunk of 2x4 could be spliced in on top if you need a nailer.

[@zerodegrees8]

Hey Nate! No sure if i missed anything but since youre still in the building stage have you thought about adding double doors on the second floor in the front with a hoist?! It would be handy to hoist some large items up to the second floor if ever needed.

[@herbwitch5681]

Congratulations! It’s looking great

[@laurencefidhburn1845]

Good job on the garage.

[@robertlargura8]

Very cool and like your approach

[@khartog01]

Got a friend who wants to do this, and I share your videos with him to help him with his dreams .

[@shalinivarma237]

Wow great job so far havent checked in awhile but like wow 👏

[@PRO4XKEV]

Hopefully you install a railing upstairs around the stair case opening for safety. And install fire extinguisher's up and down for a Just in case.. they make the smaller ones.

[@peachyweav5240]

Woooo! So stoked for you guys!

[@suzzettebridges4931]

Love the garage! Awsome!😊

[@drifter503]

A podcast studio sounds like a great idea. That room is huge

[@Strugglingdisciple]

I would defiantly add a roof. You never know if one year you get a 3 foot blizzard. That roof will make you mot have to dig out so much.

[@metalord53]

Man a retaining wall about 10ft out all the way around that building and fill it flat would look really sweet. or at least on the side without the doors and around the back. a good place for a wood rack or even a garden.

[@johnlyons427]

You are building a fine estate Nate. Great to watch . Thanks.

[@brentblevins3393]

Love this channel and Will Survives!!!

[@daifeichu]

That garage rocks

[@animalslivesmatter183]

TOTALLY AWESOME JOB NATE😊 How about some kind of no slip mats on the steps jen az wont slip up or down TOTALLY AWESOME❤❤❤❤

[@jimgard69]

That’s goooood. Looks great Nate.

[@drAgonflysix2]

Brother you have come a long way in a short time . I'm impressed these guys are the real deal good quality work . blessings brother. by faith alone in CHRIST:

[@damensutherland7081]

Looking nice !!!

[@rosaliecaraballo9987]

Looks amazing

[@aaronrichardson2347]

Coming along nicely

[@sickofcrap8992]

I wish there were more men like you, Nate.

[@StreetPreacherr]

Looking good! I assumed he would have just gone with one of those 'cheap & easy' Pre-Fab Metal garage/warehouse structures. However this building should look much nicer.

[@JohnDavidsworld]

The garage is really coming along

[@randymiller1604]

Awesome garage

[@Lssjg702]

That looks so neat

[@genevabrown450]

Awesome grow room 🍻

[@ryankisiolek8741]

Love your videos brother ❤

[@carolyncarlson6410]

Truly happy for you! btw for taxes it's a story & 1/2 where I've lived, might be in your state too & no sense paying more

[@jeffstrickland1582]

Indoor archery range / bowling alley.

[@bradleydove88]

Had you considered skylights for the upstairs area? That way ya could utilize natural light during the day & see stars at night

[@theodorebormet1780]

looks great

[@danbartstow9829]

Maybe think about electric under floor heating…I install underfloor heating under tile all the time…It can also be installed under hardwood….It doesn’t use much electricity and the thermostat is 7 days per week programmable…

[@Chris-vb8re]

That's a nice garage!

[@Buildingskynet]

French cleats on everything, you will not be disappointed
