No 129 . FARMHOUSE KITCHEN BUILD. WE PAID

[@dewaltxrp7889]

you saved small fortune on the pointing also, well done trace,

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you 😊 we did

[@jeanferguson2922]

Tracy I watch a lot of French home shows and they've all pointed at one time or another but your pointing skills have out done them all. Great job. Both of you are very talented

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Wow, thank you Jean we believe if you are going to learn anything learn it properly and the right way 😀 xx

[@denisemastromina7821]

What a good buy, I bet you were super pleased with the price of those chandeliers.

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Yes Denise we were you know us we love a bargain 😀 xx

[@theophiluskampfer1439]

I'm always so impressed with the work you two do. Tracy's pointing is superb as usual and the thought and care Budo takes with the carpentry is outstanding. Budo makes something as elemental as roof rafters look like fine furniture. Well done!

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you very much! Theophiluskampfer we always take pride in everything we do and that is a lovely way of looking at things 🤗xx

[@frankcobb9983]

What a fantastic job you’ve done Budo I’m following with great interest not that I’m going to do it but it’s great watching a great craftsman at his best❤

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Glad you enjoyed it Frank and yes l agree 👍

[@pamlucas1326]

[@murielwilson3148]

Great work again from you both and what fantastic bargans you purchased and as someone mentioned you both are looking a little tired please take time to rest

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you Muriel and yes we will 🤗xx

[@ritaderuysscher3535]

Beautiful work Budo! It is really starting to take shape. But do take a little break once the structure is closed up and waterproofed. You must be exhausted after all that hard work. 2.5 days of pointing? It would have taken me 2 weeks 😅 and my work would not have looked as nice as Tracy’s. Beautiful job Tracy! Glad you found good bargains on both the tiles and the chandeliers 👍🏻 and I will you see in the next video.

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you Rita for caring and your lovely comment ❤ xx

[@lindagage7315]

Great job Tracy on the pointing! Wow good buy on the tiles!

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thanks so much! 😊 and yes we were really lucky xx

[@pennyneal2456]

The farmhouse was definitely missing that room that you are building. Looking forward to the tiling as well.

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Yes it was Penny 🤗

[@LadyCourtney13]

Tracy rocks when it comes to pointing stone! Beautiful!!! Rafters look amazing!!!!

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you so much LadyCourtney13 so glad you love it 🤗xx

[@bethsheeba1198]

Budo, hats off to you. You are a true craftsman. Tracey you have become a pointing wizard. Great work guys. cheers from Oz. xx

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you bethsheeba1198 so glad you are enjoying and appreciating what we are doing 😊 xx

[@TrumanMarloweJr]

Looks good guys! The medieval method is very interesting to say the least. It eliminates the need for a lot of measuring and calculations. I wish I could have seen the videos when I did the roof on my garden shed! Just be safe as you get on the roof to do the remaining work. Pointing looks great so tell Tracy great job!

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

It is Truman and the old ways are the best 👌 and yes Budo will and glad you like the pointing 🤗xx

[@Caoucaren]

SUPERBE! as they say in France, so lovely to see all that roof come together just like a jigsaw puzzle. I still cant get my angle on my little log store been trying for 2 afternoon but I think I may do it another way now, thank you for sharing. x

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Thank you very much! Angela and we are glad it ei help you and well done you 🤗xx

[@sylvanaire]

It looks like I’m three months behind the times, but if you haven’t covered up your ridge pole yet, you should carve your name and the construction date in it somewhere for a future owners to find and marvel over!😊

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Wonderful idea thank you 😊 Budo wrote his name and date on the timbers that were covered up 🤗

[@AbellTo]

Love it mate those slates are fantastic value. Knowing they’re being reused is so satisfying

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Yes they are Darren we had a right result there buddy we are loving your channel to great work keep it going and in the future as we grow ill be giving you a big shout out again ( any one reading this check out AbellTo A good wholesome Nature loving natural great channel me and Tracy love watching ) 🍺🤠👍🏻

Will there be no windows in the back?

There will two large roof windows and one large window at the side were the back door will be as the Kitchen evolves you will see why Kathyeyesopen4078 🤗

[@zie9171]

Fantastic!!! Am really intrredted in your kitchen build. Ive watchrd the videos available so far. At what point does the DPC go in?

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Hello you do not put DPC on block work as each block has to lock on top of eachother if you put the DPC between the blocks they can slide as these are sid concrete blocks the whole house has no DPC because as there is very good drainage in this area we have no standing water. Hope this helps 🤗

[@zie9171]

Thanks for that, really interesting.

[@zie9171]

What about drainage outside ?

[@FrenchFarmhouseDiaries]

Hi Zie the drainage for the sink washing machine is in place already as it was there from when it was a kitchen before so we link strait to that ill show in an up and coming video the roof drainage vie the gutters will be water catchment with an over flow into the fosse hope this helps 🥰😊

[@zie9171]

Brilliant thanks you both. Great videos.
