[@CalvinSehrt]

As someone who does this kind of work for a living, I’m impressed with how well you did. I would have done a few things differently but great job overall.

[@chakasmum]

Guys - please, please, please don’t forget the safety gear. Construction sites demand protective gear for a reason - protection for your feet (toes and soles), your eyes, your lungs and your heads. And if you need to be found quickly should something bad happen, HI-VIS! We don’t want to be nannies - but, seriously, we want you to get through this build without major injuries - we really do! Even archaeologists put construction helmets on when the digger comes in! I only go onto construction sites to take photos - but I’m not allowed in without the full hat/hi-vis/boots combo. Better to look slightly ridiculous than hospitalised.

[@jakehussey8957]

Nah

[@Banagal]

Teamwork makes the dream work. OK, it's an old saying, but it's still true. Good progress ya'll.

[@DonaldHatleyFMF]

Have you considered putting screen down underneath the floor joists to keep the bugs scorpions from coming in?

[@alanholck7995]

Scorpions, snakes, foxes, armadillos, raccoons, skunks, etc. It is critter city where they are. I would attach heavy-duty, galvanized hardware cloth around exterior joints and dim a trench at least a foot & half deep around perimeter to bury other side.

[@dorisweems1510]

You guys are a hoot 😊😊. Good luck with the renovations, I can't wait for the final results.

[@faithwarren9212]

I'm glad you have so many safety warriors in your comments, which gives me the flexibility to enjoy your editing and personalities in spite of this intensely complicated project. You're nailing it (no pun intended)!

[@jjboohoo9641]

I am a retired builder...Great at building but crappy with programing computers. I have to give it to you for trying. I got a good laugh at you guys.

[@Beachenseaglass]

OMG you guys I'm so excited about your show!!!! This is awesome, the tiny house is going to be so amazing!!! I'm so happy for your guys new adventure, and so proud of how far you've come into this journey. Love y'all you're my favorite show on KZbin. Congrats on your much deserved success ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@SoxRoxBoston]

I've read some of the comments about not having rebar in the footings. I agree with them. I'm not a construction expert but my brother has a masonry background so I know a little by helping him out. Hopefully as you continue on you consult experts when it comes to electric and plumbing issues. A house is different from an RV.

[@jstar1000]

Always tape glass before moving it like that. I use painters tape on both sides if you can access them which you could. Years ago I was working out in a GYM and some guy's were moving a large mirror and it broke while they were carrying it out and when it fell to the ground a long jagged protrusion of glass cut through one of the guys stomach on the way down and his guts were hanging out. He had a very very bad day.

[@Bluebell117]

🙀

[@jameshummel7349]

🎉yeah, I was thinking the same thing .. he almost lost an arm there!

[@jakehussey8957]

[@bigeye7480]

Good luck on your journey. I pray everything goes smoothly! At the end of the day, you can repair any mistakes you make but your physical wellness is irreplaceable. Thanks for taking us along

[@VonnieVonVonster]

My god, you guys are going great! I've looked at properties that needed work and thought "that's going to need a big team", so colour me enlightened! You're inspirational!

[@jdcaldon6147]

I’m loving it. I’m so going to be learning from your experiences. Good luck and stay positive.

[@gerryrandallfox2402]

You guys are so amazing. I have been watching y'all for a good while and just love all the adventures. Can't wait for you the next episode.

[@MyBackyardScience]

You guys are doing a great job! We are really "rooting" for you! 😊

[@yetti399]

BTW guys all your hangers are upsidedown. the joices are supposed to rest on them as they give additional support

[@CalvinSehrt]

I could be wrong but I don’t think the hangers are attached. I think they just stuck them on each joist for later installation. Maybe we’ll see for sure in the next video though.

[@Anberel]

Yes, the hanger is supposed to support the joist from the bottom. That what that little bit that cups the wood is for. I am not sure how you even make that mistake, but hopefully they figure it out before they do any framing. I also didn’t see if they were checking the wood for which direction it’s bowing. The bow goes up so that weight from the top straightens it out rather than causing it to sag further.

[@Deadseelife]

Lol she said they weren’t attached yet otherwise she’d be walking on them. They were just sitting on top of the boards for the time being.

[@JohnTCAUSA7450]

Iam happy you have wood and know what to do with it😮

[@kathyeller1621]

Next time rent a bobcat with tracks not tires. Also, once you breathe in concrete dust, it never leaves your lungs

[@gregbumgardner3006]

Face mask/ respirator. Save them pretty lungs.

[@jakehussey8957]

Nah

[@ian-digitalhit]

5 seconds to put on eye protection or a respirator Vs a lifetime without an eye or lung. Easy choice really.

[@CaliMel1111]

Or they'll turn 50 and suddenly have garbage lungs and cancer because they exposed themselves to all this thinking it didn't matter.

[@jakehussey8957]

Nah

[@jj-if6it]

@@jakehussey8957 stop commenting 'nah' on everything

[@jeffreyferguson83]

It doesn’t look like you used Pressure Treated Wood for the Subfloor! You should have! If you didn’t then use a Sealer of some sort, like Thomason Water Sealer, put a couple coats on it. The Joist hangers are upside down, but it will be Ok! When putting down the Plywood just make sure you glue it down as well as screw it. I’m taking it that you are not doing this with Permits! An inspector would have caught these things! If I remember correctly Texas is a little lacks on that. Also I would use a 3/4 inch plywood at least on the subfloor!

[@ScottyBennitone]

I double taked at the joist hangers. I was always confused when ive seen this because you would think common sense would tell you the board rests in the u to support it from the bottom. Not that big of a deal in their situation but still funny nevertheless.

[@kathrynhaynes7068]

I have no carpentry or building advice, but I'm very impressed that you two are taking on this job!! 😊

[@tarrandunn6810]

You guys are bloody awesome!! Seriously loving watching the tiny house come to life! 🏡 Big love from Australia 🇦🇺

[@p3147-u9d]

Both doing amazing! (Even if it does look like Alison is doing most of the work! 💪😂) Well done! (but please put a mask on when dealing with concrete, concrete dust is not good for the lungs) 👍

[@jkbutnotreally]

You got a lot of comments from helpful people with experience on this. I'll just say I'm very impressed with you doing this in a way that looks (to my eyes) at least decent, without any prior experience. Even more, I'm impressed with the positive attitude. This is difficult, it looks difficult, and you're staying positive as much as you can. Top youtube content!

[@reempire888]

This is why I love watching you guys. You guys are humble, funny, and don't claim to be expert like most KZbinrs do. We all learn from mistakes along the way, and watching others' YT videos doesn't make you an expert. I can't wait to see the finished product. If you guys ever here in San Francisco, I love to treat you guys to some dim sums in Chinatown.

[@rachellewidmann3621]

Yay!!! Another one. I'm so looking forward to your house journey! Sending lots of good vibes to you Allison and Eric! ☀️💗🙂

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

Wow that was Some Rain fall 😮. What they say you learn from your mistakes 😜 I am sure you will have a great Tiny house / home. At the end of the take care 🥰

[@midwest4237]

You guys are great! Love from back home! Ps. Your ad segments are the only ones I can actually sit through fully! They are hilarious 👌👌👌

[@leohale6449]

I spent many years using many different nail guns. While the devices are designed to reduce the risk of injury, it is entirely possible to hit something and have the nail shoot back at you. I know this because it has happened to me more than once in the years of using them.

[@belindaknowles7440]

You guys are amazing😊 Thank you for showing it all, from the garbage clean up to the building process. I look forward to watching your progress. See ya next week❤

[@margiewinters6857]

This is exciting! Kind of like arriving in a new foreign city. You'll make it your home once again.

[@ChapterThreeAdventures]

We’re loving your new series and know nothing about construction so won’t say what you’re doing wrong!😂 You’ve inspired us to start our own travel channel. 4 videos in and it’s so much fun. Thanks!

[@jakehussey8957]

You tubers becoming contractors is my favourite transition

[@yomaluza66]

Wow 🤩 I am really impressed. Keep it up. Can’t wait to see the full tiny house. Stay safe 😊

[@AnnA-ej3dr]

Yes ... PLEASE wear a respirator when working with concrete... love you guys... don't want you to get sick!

[@tonybongaarts]

Started following you because of your travels. Was not sure about this chapter..... you guys are awesome. Enjoying this project.

[@Adventureapproved]

"How hard can it be"? Famous last words lol! You guys got this.....well ya better cause we're all watchin lol 😜

[@digitalbecca]

I love this! Can’t wait to see it complete

[@HelluvaHomestead]

Floor joists look solid so far! Can't wait to see it when it's all done!

[@digitakes]

Best sponsor video ever. Thank you for at least making it fun!

[@sarah-phillips]

I'm so excited to see this take shape! As someone who has a relative who has zapped themselves more than once, hire an electrician...and plumber. I think it's so cool you're doing all the woodwork. If Clementine is any indication of what the house will look like, it's going to be awesome.

[@beverlypoirier705]

You guys are moving right along. Can't wait to see the entire lot finished. ❤🙏

[@FG-wn6re]

The Chomps ad was so funny!!! I had a good chuckle

[@annakidd6811]

Wow, you guys work hard! I’m so impressed. Of course you’ll make mistakes, and learn from them, but at the end of the day you’ll have a beautiful home that you will be so proud of. Keep going! I can’t wait to see what you end up with.

Amazing work. So glad to see you guys building for the future in Texas!

Allison’s moment with the Bobby cat drilling totally gave me ‘Armageddon” vibes on the asteroid, 😂 Good luck with the project, I know nothing about this stuff !!!

[@michaelgonzalez8863]

Awesome! You two are definitely not scared of big wood !

[@kristenrobitaille6912]

I am loving this series!

[@jstar1000]

I didn't see any rebar in that shaft, you put some in right? I sure hope so if not, good luck with that!

[@choochcardinale6595]

That's what I was thinking also you need rebar for everything to set right. I hope they use rebar when they do the concrete slab

[@lokent6592]

lol of course they didnt :D

[@noelbowerman1562]

My thoughts too ,not sure how long it will last without it.

[@lfulkerson2503]

So chomps is the new AG1. Cool. Get your money.

[@CalvinSehrt]

They probably should have put a couple in but they’ll most likely be okay for the most part with those 30” piers.

[@einzgeisha]

either way, i'm excited about ya'll's journey!

[@venessastabile3153]

Wow you guys are moving along at a pretty good pace. Can't wait to see when y'all are done. Keep up the good work

[@Amarieb29]

I know nothing about construction or building so I won't criticize what you're doing, though I hope you are working a little more safely than it appears. You all are brave for sure - I get nervous about even little projects around the house.

[@theathjr]

Wow you guys rock ! Great job tackling yet another project. Well done kids. 👊

[@orlandifam]

You guys are awesome! Sounds like there are a lot of experts on here that would love to help! 😜. Keep doing you!

I'm really enjoying this adventure, look forward to every new video, its brilliant

[@krickette5569]

Well, I've watched video after video, looking for a good video of this kind of foundation, and here it is. Most of the videos I watched were so heavily edited they were impossible to learn the whole process from. I'm a visual learner and have all the "How To" books, but nothing beats a video for me. I'm super excited to see this come together for you and love your plans! Thanks!

[@danielm6803]

Nice work guys. Looking forward to seeing the final product!

You are amazing, it,s a real pleasure to follow you, whatever you do. Found you when you bought Clementine and was amased of youre renovation. Like you I am an amateure and 70+ but I still want to do things by myself. 1977 I built a house with my father in law, he was a carpenter not me. But when the house was finished I had learn a lot, so I really love to see you work with youre latest projekt, you got ten points from me and a lot of thumps up. Carry on, you make my week to the next chapter.

[@spearfish60]

So impressed you are both amazing great to watch. Looking forward to the next video 😊😊🏚🏚🏠🏠

Congrats to both of you for always trying to tackle even the hardest of jobs. Remember everyone makes mistakes, even pros, but they leave you with theirs to find later. Y' all can fix them as you make them. Good Luck on the tiny house!

[@knoris6457]

Kudos to you two for taking on the project and being so positive throughout! Hopefully the people trying to be helpful come across as exactly that and the naysayers and worryworts would probably never accomplish something like this anyway so don’t bother with any of that nonsense. Loving the change of pace! Been watching your videos for years and am loving the building now, something I’ve been considering doing myself! So fun to watch. Also loving and appreciate learning from some other commenters as the process goes on.

[@christopherg.115]

Safety First! We all love you guys. But several actions in this video could have gone badly. Eye protection! Glass, nails, splinters, etc. Concrete requires respirator use, forms require rebar. And I also believe your floor joist hangers are upside down and should support from the bottom. We love the progress and we are rooting for you. Be Safe!

[@nanachick05]

I’m pretty sure you’re right about the joist hangers…and you’re right about everything else as well, except the forms, you don’t need rebar especially in Texas were there’s practically no frost.

[@CaliMel1111]

OMG YES. Also, if they have natural gas lines anywhere on that property they should have called the utility company to come out and mark where all the pipes are. They do it for free and will put the little flags so you don't accidentally start digging into a natural gas pipeline or rupture a water main or drive a tractor over your septic tank.

[@michaelgonzalez8863]

I’m rooting for ya !
