BEAUTIFUL New Deck BUILT by US! // Mobile Home Deck Build - Pt. 2

[@curban616]

When I was little, my Dad tore down old houses and built our new house with the lumber. My little sister and I had the job of pounding out all of the old nails. My Dad taught me so much about construct over the years that I am able to build things myself. Teaching kids skills like this will stay with them forever!

[@rhodiafiddler5557]

My dad built most of our house out of use lumber out of two houses we tore down too.

[@fionajane56]

Watching you work as a family is a marvelous example for anyone with children. Your boys are gaining skills and confidence that will make them great young men, God bless you all and the deck is lovely!

[@justthefacts982]

Absolutely!!

[@markholmes1346]

The deck looks great! Nice to see the family working together. The hard work is paying off. ✌🏼❤️🙏🏼

[@mrsdig57]

First may I say? I think that is great that you are teaching the boy how to build things. It's important that they have the skills to use through out their lives and they will be able to say my mom and dad taught me how to do this. The deck looks great I love it! I'd love to have had one that big when we first got our mobile home we had to have those pre made decks and steps 4×4 for the past seven years. My new porches are all done except the metal roof. They are not going to put it on until it looks like we are going to have a couple of clear skies. Angela you were so cute coming out on to the deck. And of course the both of you holding hands going up and down the steps. I no it is exciting to be another step closer to getting in your home. Could we see some pictures of you when you were dating and your wedding and as the boys were coming along. Your family is beautiful. 😍

[@anetzband1383]

Angela, I love living vicariously through you as I watch you use those tools. Before he passed, one of the last things my dad told me was that he was sorry he never let me touch the power tools--that it was because I was a girl and he didn't think girls could use them without getting hurt. So, thank you for showing us what you do.

[@beverlysearles61]

Your deck turned out beautiful!

[@linnsoltwedel]

Girls get hurt way less than guys, because we have a tendency to be more careful :) You rock with your tools!

[@lyndabuchholz1216]

She is an awesome young lady!!

[@jackiegardner7483]

Same here

[@moragellis3040]

Oh, just see all those memories being made with your kids. Every time he looks at those stairs he will remember 'I helped to build that'. 😀

[@heidijakowski4146]

Where are guys like your husband, able, willing and interested in making and maintaining a home! Great job, love watching you guys and seeing home improvements. You both make it seem easy, but I know it's not. Thank you for sharing!!

[@rebelchildshomestead]

Forgive me but, they are not out and about... They are building and maintaining their homes. 👍🙃

[@jimo2627]

🙋 guilty as charged (i)'ve maintained my home and rather enjoy it as it keeps me active and using the skills I've been taught from my many elders God bless

[@juriaan13]

Working on my farm mostly

[@jeanepilgrim4926]

Angela and Sam I would like to say that I really admire the way y'all work, laugh and raise your children together.Too many times now days couples can't work together (especially when it is so hot) without arguing or getting mad with each other. Y'all laugh together at each other and at yourselves. Your children are well behaved and included in the work even when you are hot and tired and could get finished with a project faster if they weren't helping. They will appreciate the home they helped to build more now. I wish all couples would make videos like y'all do. It is a pleasure to watch your videos and not wonder if an argument is going to break out lol. Y'all are doing a great job and can't wait to see what you work on next! AWESOME FAMILY!!!!!!

[@suesmith4325]

The deck turned out beautiful. You did a fantastic job. Watching you letting your son help you kinda choked me up a bit and made me feel proud of you for that. Their attention span might not be long but these memories will last a life time.along with the pride a child feels when they get to help dad with a big project. Cudos to you and Angela.

[@markallenashcraft976]

I love it when the whole family is working together. The boys are getting so big and looking pretty brown as they play outside. The deck is looking really good, cant wait to see what the back deck looks like and how big it is.

[@marthaporter2632]

I’m so happy to see y’all teaching your kids skills they can use for a lifetime. So many parents these days spend no time with their kids. Love y’all!❤️👍🏼

[@deannaoverstreet4146]

So happy for your family! Yea!!!!, can’t wait for the big reveal! I love how you teach the feral boys! They will grow to be amazing men!

[@connieverbeck1110]

👍 I have tears in my eyes watching your boys helping. So precious. Makes me think of our youngest, who is now in her 40’s, helped hubby put in a sprinkler system in our orchard. She was Johnny on the spot, correctly anticipating what he needed next. Love it. Special memory. Love the width of the stairs! They are awesome!! Just think you now are that much closer to moving in!!! Yeah!!! I know, easy for me to say!!!

[@phyllisstein1837]

28:35 just when I thought you two couldn't possibly be any more adorable....

[@diyfferent]

A lot of people don't realize the time spent just trying to figure things out and make decisions. I can tell a lot of planning and thought went into this and it came out great.

[@colleenboerner3838]

Woo hoo. Can't wait but I gotta. Having dinner with friends at 6. 😁 I KNOW this video will be worth the wait.... They ALWAYS are. Y'all ROCK!!!!!

[@marciam6224]

Oh Isaac, you melt my heart. 💜 You sure were a big help to your dad on the deck. Sam-Angela, in the next video, can you please show us how the garden is doing? I saw it in the distance and the plants look like they are growing like weeds. lol

[@sca6769]

Another huge, perfect step forward! Also, thanks for the how-to about the go-cart by your elder son. He’s another educator like his parents.

[@lindaglover9248]

Your deck looks nice! If I could suggest one small addition, it would be to consider adding risers to the front of the steps. I think that would make it look more finished. Whether you do, or whether you're don't, you two did a great job! You have really transformed the place!

[@cherylsmith-bell6509]

Yep I was going to suggest they look at what Life Uncontained did for their underpinning. Would look great. Horizontal 1x3, space, 1x2, space, 1x3 That might be cheaper than solid wood, but I don't know that for sure, there.

[@klotzhomestead8492]

I completely agree. I love the deck, but it needs risers to finish it!

[@High12083]

Agree, the porch looks unfinished the riser boards look more fashion and safer

[@wandaking4229]

I completely agree. The first step already has it and looks nice and finished. Regardless of whether you do it or not it looks great. I am so proud to see a family working together. It's like the old saying that a family that prays together stays together . You all have done such a great job. Be safe in this heat and the storms that are coming. God Bless you all.

[@lindamaskus5142]

I've not seen decks with risers on them. I think this looks great!

[@annwilliams2075]

It is nearly midnight here in the UK so am off to bed, but will watch the building of the deck in the morning. 😊😊😊😊😴😴😴😴

[@marychristopherson738]

You guys did a fantastic job and watching the boys helping out is awesome, making lots of memories ❤️

[@tonyacorder7892]

I love it when the boys get to help. I remember those days. As a child growing up and as a young parent with little ones always trying to help.

[@LuJustLu]

"All Hands On Deck!" 👀...Wait!!! Don't kick me out, please. I couldn't resist. I loved to see all of you having a part in building the deck. Your boys will grow up to be amazing young men that will know how to do stuff and have amazing problem-solving skills. Sam and Angela, you two are a force! I love this! It looks phenomenal and the finishing touches takes it over the top. Awesome job.

[@ShadowMoonFarms]

I was surprised there were no handprints or names or dates on that footer. Love that the stairs are so wide. Makes it more welcoming -- like your arms are open wide for your guests. Always hated dinky little steps.

[@beckyb4745]

Your family reminds me of when our boys were little. We had 3 feral boys. It’s wonderful to see you teaching them. Everyone gets great satisfaction from creating.

[@Oracles001]

Seeing this beautiful family working together remind me of when I was young boy helping my dad helping him doing home projects good old days

[@mattandchelseasmom]

Love the deck! Great job and it’s so nice to see the boys involved as well! Wonderful memories and lessons that they’ll carry throughout their lifetime!

[@karengarrett1606]

Such a talented hard working family. I love seeing your sons eagerly helping to make your new home so comfortable and learning valuable skills as well.

[@ftwtexasstephens9629]

The deck turned out great. Also y'all have the sweetest most nice mannered boys on KZbin. Not only are you doing a bang up job on your home, you're doing a great job raising 2 young men!

[@onemorchatykathy]

I love how the boys are enjoying learning and being a part of the build and how you both take the time to allow projects to take a bit longer by letting your boys learn by doing. I wish I had slowed down and allowed my kids to work along beside me. I was always in a hurry and would rather do it myself than give them time to participate. Trust me, you will look back on these days with a smile in your hearts 💕

[@kathrynmauro8673]

Your deck is beautiful. I love Angela coming out the door and showing off her new deck. Super cute!!! You two are doing an amazing 👏 job as parents. You are allowing your boys to learn valuable skills but understand that they are still kids. They help and run off to play. That's important 👏. Plus who doesn't want to play with the scraps and let their imagination run wild? It's refreshing to see parents allowing their children to be children. Keep up the great work! 👍 One day your kiddos will have children of their own. The memories and skills that you are providing will no doubt be passed on to their children. A+

[@masunshine2970]

Your two boys are just the cutest. They are so sweet just like their mom and dad. I love seeing them help you. Love watching you one son explain how to start his go-cart, he did a perfect job doing that.

[@magda3650]

Sam and Angela, you are an example to every family. God bless you and your kids. 🙏🙏🙏

[@PaganWizard]

To make removal of concrete forms A LOT easier, spray them (generously) with nonstick cooking spray. You obviously only need to do this to the side that will be making contact with the concrete. For a little bit of style, and safety as well, when your budget allows, you can get solar powered caps for the 4x4 posts on your porch. You can get them in black to match your color scheme. I think it's great that you're including your sons into these projects. They are learning skills that, not only will most likely not be taught in school, but that they will carry with them for the rest of their lives. KZbinr Derek from "Vice Grip Garage" has a son named Bentley who is about your kids age, and also has his own KZbin channel called "Little Grip Garage". I think your boys as well as you would enjoy both channels. Derek's channel is geared toward reviving old cars and trucks, while Bentley's channel is geared more towards his go-carts, and mini bikes.

[@newtondak]

The memories he'll have of when he helped Dad build the deck! 💕

[@gailmaree7719]

After all the problems with shootings i think home schooling is way safer for the boys and all kids really. Love the front verandah and steps..great job.

[@rubberdc]

I really like the way you include the boys in your adventures with tasks , they must feel great to help their parents .

[@tonyakellogg3717]

Wishing y'all could have seen me, as you were walking up the porch hand in hand... I'm over here smiling from ear to ear clapping my hands yelling YAY 😄😍 And when Sam said if your not careful you could trip and die (about the wood peices on the ground) I just about spit my tea out laughing so hard! I love it 😉

[@tonyakellogg3717]

Please say your going to seal the porch somehow or something, I've seen so many times people put a new porch on and not long after it's grey and weathered and doesn't look great.. just a question. It really looks so amazing!

[@larryfeeks6620]

First off, your feral children are awesome! Second, the deck looks fantastic! I really enjoy the bloopers at the end.

[@courtneystarks8901]

I love the deck, I would suggest boards where you walk up, like the back board for the stairs. Everything else is perfect. I also aspire for my 4 year old son to be like your oldest. He is such a well mannered, hard working, good ole boy. Props to y'all for being just great parents!

[@jeanniealford4234]

Great job. The boys are getting so big, especially Elijah. Teach your boys life lessons. Great parents.

[@christinemck7033]

It is nice to see sons having quality time with dad.

[@rethamoore4282]

There is something about doing it yourself that brings pride and a sense of satisfaction that You done that , that makes you want to learn and grow even more. Great parents !!

[@kenlowe5900]

Brought a tear to my eye, watching you and your kids working together reminded me of working with my father. Wonderful memories.

[@andycremeans]

It’s nice to see you guys work together instead of nitpicking everything constantly

[@christi4169]

That is absolutely something to be proud of, it's beautiful. I honestly can't believe people question the things you do. I've noticed a lot of you tube channels "apologizing' or having to explain what they do and why. You are doing it and those people are just sitting there watching and criticizing. I have learned a lot from you

[@RRCRDA777-55]

Your boys are helpful and loving, great job Angela and Sam. When my girls wanted to help I always let them, even do I new it was going to take extra time to fix what they were helping me. Today they are grown up and treasure those days

[@rubberdc]

GOSH at 5.27 you can tell easily that Angela is so happy !

[@michael8208]

I’m sorry guys, but I’ve gotta say it again. I LOVE to see your whole family working together on your home. Your boys are never going to forget this time spent with you. You are truly building memories with them. God love you for it.

Good craftsmanship, the deck should last many many years. I was glad to see you adding the caps to the 4x4 posts, some people don't realize the value of the caps; it is not just decorative, it is key to a long life of the post. The ending outtakes were as always, super enjoyable. Thank you for sharing your life with us viewers.

[@northwestwanderer1060]

That tip on signed the oscillating saw back-and-forth actually works great! You can cut through material much quicker and you don’t burn up your blade as bad.

[@gedreillyhomestead6926]

Great to see the kids getting involved. Now you just need to get a mower attached to the back of their go-cart so they can be useful while having fun. 👍 😎

Deck looks great guys!! I know your ready to get back into the house..Thanks for sharing with us its such a joy watching.

Awesome to see the kids playing outside with whatever they can get their hands on, even helping y’all build memories instead on playing on cell phones or games on play stations. Great job parents. 😄😄those two little guys will definitely grow up to be great men.

Hi. Guys I feel that sinking those deck columns deep in the dirt with concrete and having it detached from the house can provide a form of tornado shelter. With a little work it could be just what is needed. Have fun!!

You built that deck better than some folks build a house! As I am sure you know, the sloppier the concrete the weaker it is in the end. For what you want that mix is fine.

[@mlm7598]

Love the porch! It looks wonderful and I know you are loving being to go in and out with ease. Really really looks nice! I can't wait to see what the back deck is going to look like as nice as the front does I am sure or perhaps more tricks up Sam's sleeve. I know it will be amazing and wonderful as well. Now a pretty potted plant would be gorgeous up there and you will be set. LOL I always want flowers on a porch........why I don't know, but I guess it's a girly decorating thing........LOL Use your porch with joy and be proud as it has turned out so so nice! Congratulations! Looks spiffy there!!!! Blessings When did the boys grow up? Weren't they just tykes a few months ago. Wow.......the country fresh air must be doing it.......sweet young fellows as well......I just love to see what they are up to and they are so enduring. 😊😊

That is so sweet the boys helping you. One day they will proudly they someone how they helped.

[@Belg1970]

The deck looks really nice, the suggestion I would make is to attach the side rail posts to the stair rail posts. It will add a degree of sturdiness and avoid the side rails from tilting out over time. Also the stair post at the top of the stairs I would add 1 or 2 screws in the opposing direction(into the stairs) think cross bracing. Fantastic that your taking the time to teach your son and to see that he's interested.
