It’s A Double Decker!! #10

[@cherylcarlson3315]

Wish you had used hurricane clips and hope the short wall is westerly facing or the roof will lift off.

[@dougrundell947]

Don't forget hurricane anchors on that wooden building. From foundation to the roof top.

[@Diddley-js6lf]

I just realized exactly why I love watching your Channel, I believe it’s because the wholesomeness of the way there are never a Curse Word Spoken, the togetherness that you all have and lastly I love the way you all play off each other with the Comedy. It’s perfect fit for all of you, I thought maybe when Brody came into play it would mess up the Dynamics of the way you all play off each other’s comedy. It’s going great.

[@ROCK-s1t]

@George Jones your mamma cares that's who does

[@kdh1309]

You should have bought that Firetruck with the bucket lift on it awhile back , come in handy now working on those bins .

[@dating4564]

Love the channel but as a contractor I would suggest using screws, lag bolts, and lots of strapping when you build anything that is going to get hit with the kind of winds you guys get.

🏡🫖☕🌏🌍🌎Thank you so much for this wonderful video and rebuilding that looks great yes and I hope the weather is just raining on the areas that you need to plant your corn yes and sending you prayers your way and we appreciate this wonderful video thank you for sharing it with us today yes!+:):) 🚜🌽🌽🌽🇺🇸💌💕💕

I heard Eric has a warrant out for his arrest for indecent exposure so he's keeping off the camera so they can't catch him !!! 🤣

Don't cut yourself short Dougo. You're more than just a stud wall builder, we saw that finish carpentry work you did up stairs, top notch stuff. Thanks for your content.

[@aproudamerican2692]

I'm a disabled Firefighter/EMT and I worked in a ER for afew years. I've seen alot of Eric's in the ER with missing digits. Because they had their fingers to close to the blade. Just like Eric was doing there following the cut and the saw caught on a knot an jumped. A funny story. It took me all day to clean up a guy that got into a fight with a chainsaw. Head, face, chest, knees and shin. It kept bouncing off of him as he "tried" to put it down. *Stay safe out there guys.*

[@curlybibliophagist]

I just saw that part of the video. As a paramedic, holy smokes!

Wow a lot of damage Chet from the tornado Great video Chet and yeah , you made a good call not letting you Dad go up their on the ben to dangerous . Let the pros do the job. What our black beans uses for first time heard of that kind of beans? What happen to Toby? Not seen him for awhile.

[@Krieghandt]

"I hope you enjoyed it" LOL ANY video where Chet and Dougo are discussing decisions to be made is enjoyable. The banter is hilarious.

[@johnjohnson3602]

Make sure to run Hurricane screws throw top plate into roof truss and you might want to put them in the floor joists from under neath

[@lostinlox]

And if you’re going to do that,you might as well,do hurricane straps on your trusses too.

[@f0rumrr]

My thoughts exactly run extra hardware to connect the bottom plate to the top plate, trusses too.

[@f0rumrr]

@@lostinlox Not a bad idea, be worth it since there gunna be so much sensitive crucial expensive electronics in there.

[@johnjohnson3602]

The New screws go up throw both bottom plates and in to truss so if truss blows off the hole building will go bye bye.

[@BowWowPewPewCQ]

I missed the trusses everyone is talking about. I only saw rafters.

[@1957Free]

Thanks for posting

[@ross7684]

Way to take care of Dougo by keeping him off the top of that damages silo, Chet. Get some professionals out there to repair the rungs on top so you can get up there safely. I'm sure the pro's are busy all over the area and it's hard to get fit into their schedules, but you guys stay safe while you wait for the help.

[@jamesbreault5762]

Things are looking up guys👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@bobblossom2713]

Adding a 2nd floor. Add anchor bolts and hold-downs to prevent high wind uplift forces. Be safe

[@tomcander3669]

Anchor bolts and straps go into the foundation, it would kinda hard to now

[@bobblossom2713]

@@tomcander3669 Not too hard, drill through the sole plate, and into the concrete about 6" then epoxy in new anchor bolts. We do it all the time.

[@tomcander3669]

@@bobblossom2713 most places don't allow it as it's not attached to rebar....been in construction for over 40 years

[@dhenschel4]

@@tomcander3669 We do it all the time out here in CA - in the event of an earthquake its better than having your house slide of the foundation. Simpson has all the parts for this for most applications. Its not the tinsile stress, its the shear stress we're worried about. With all the other bins bolted down I would think the shed was bolted down too.

[@roberthubbard2684]

NO ! code calls for full length hurricane straps, (from foundation to top plate)

Nice built 👌👌 // SWEDEN

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Chet Dougo and Big Swede

[@donnaparrish7638]

You guys could go into business building double decker outdoor toilets, the four seater variety lol. This has been a heck of a spring guys. It won’t always be this way. Faith over fear! Good job on the building and this is Erik and my other brother Erik!

[@chrishann5714]

Nice seeing Randy again

[@davidkimmel4216]

Good forward thinking 🤔

Put a drop down stairway in that building. That way it pulls up and out of the way.

[@matthewspitzke6252]

You should put a fireman's Pole the top floor to the bottom would be awesome

[@jtzr1]

Dougo at about 12:40 min gave new idea for tshirt. What's one more. He was talking about bin roof..

[@larryjensen1578]

All right Larson's. Build back better!

[@dmorgan28]

Dougo you are an excellent carpenter. Don’t sell yourself short. The farm sure suffered a lot of damage from those two storms. We’re praying for all of you. Take care and have a good one. 👍👍👍❤️

[@schnakenberglloydsue7313]

Great video Chet!! I hope you are getting more sleep!! I miss Toby!! Hope he is doing ok!!! Be careful and take care!!!

[@stevenicoson6670]

Thanks for another great video everyone. Most interesting fixing after the storm and enjoyable to watch. Dougo you and your folks are doing great fixing after the storm. I sense the frustration or struggle bus at this time and truly understand. Have had to fix after a storm and no fun that is for sure. On top of that you have had the planting issues with the wet ground and all that. You take care of yourself. You and your folks are doing great and hopefully recover from all of this. Thinking of all of you. Good job on the carpenter work for the second floor of the shed. How about a set of spiral steps for the second floor??? Would cut down on space I believe. Your carpenter helper was doing great work which helped. Will be nice having that second floor. Good idea. Hope you can get back in the field. Know you have some planting to do yet. Hope the ground dried up. Have not seen much of Eric lately. Is he doing ok?? Know he worked a lot of hours. Hang in there buddy. Chet when things slow down you are doing to need a trim. You look good in long hair. About all I guess for now. I will be quiet. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything and the filming Chet. Thanks to whoever helps with the editing. The Iowa farm boy. Appreciate you Chet keeping Dougo off the top of the bin where the ladder is tore off. To dangerous to be up there. Good going Chet. Thanks

[@ericjenjohnson]

As the season progresses can you tell us more about the black beans? Why you decided to plant them and where they will end up? We don’t see much about edible beans and would be interesting to hear the rest of the story. Looks like everything is somewhat back on track and your making progress in both the fields and storm recovery. Can’t wait to watch it all come together because I think it’s going to be amazing! The storm was a giant set back once you have fully recovered we all know the end result will be spectacular!

Hey seen on farming fixing and fabricating. He bought I think he called them T plugs. You unscrew your oil filter then screw in the plug so you can get the filter out without the oil spilling everywhere

[@tedheierman1181]

Put some hurricane straps on the roof trusses this time around!

2x6s on 32" centers with, (I'm guessing) a 12' span, less than 3:12 pitch, no bracing, and a MN snow and wind load? Hmmm.

Can't have dougo doing angle cuts and framing, he'll still be working on it next spring lol.

Personally I would have went every 16 inches for the rafters more boards more weight it supports and more shear force aka holds up better to higher wind

For future reference push your headers above doors and windows to the top plate in case you need to install a larger one in the future.
