So how many episodes do you all think this build will take? Just for fun and some bragging rites!!! I am kicking it off with a big 110 episodes of PBB goodness. Anyone else want to put place a "bet" on the table.....??

[@Gruuvin1]

​@@someyoungguy6990six episodes, max.

[@sunbloodtruthseeker3734]

Being watching right now and missing arlo tell him we miss him

[@louie-ami]

Excited for a new build! Hoping the home owner is as cool as Ramelle, She set the bar high for sharing her new home with all PBB fans!

[@iFortold]

Ramelle seemed to run into some budget problems at the end there… at least that’s my observation

[@ramellesmith1520]

@louie-ami - Thank you!

Arlo must have seen the plans for this house and decided to retire. Really excited to see this build!

[@kierandoherty1600]

😂😂😂😂

[@donscotuslives]

I hope Arlo makes a guest appearance.

[@JathanLane]

I NEED TO SEE THESE BLUEPRINTS. this house looks like something I want. Kinda hoping I can modify it to a multi-unit.

[@puckett21T]

Finally a new build. Been liking the tweeners but these are the best.

[@nefariousjackal6195]

Max is going to be a good addition for sure - live music on the job site at lunch. Really looking forward to this build. The design is eye-catching.

[@Greenmile76]

The 1 Million subscriber milestone will be achieved on this build series! Congrats to the Perkins brothers and crew!

[@Hobocreekfarm]

Thank y’all for being the type of tradesmen that willingly share and teach your knowledge. When I started building it was like pulling teeth from a bobcat trying to get the older guys to teach you things.

[@buzzbower9164]

My father who passed April 2021 at 91 years old was an avid bluegrass player capable of playing guitar, mandolin, fiddle and bass but his first love was the 5 string banjo. He had been told years ago by some Tennessee mountain hillbillies that he was the best damn yankee “banjer” player they ever heared and swore that he was lyin’ about being Pennsylvania born and raised. Seeing that young man throw that Gibson Mastertone down on his knee and crank on brought back memories and a tear to my eyes. I would appreciate more of that on this build and Thanks in advance!

[@Vanweezy_67]

This build is going to be great, please make videos longer then 25 mins

[@NewcastleMatt]

40 mins please

[@Super.Fast.English]

There is a reason Kyle from RR has his 1.8m followers: videos of 50+ min with a professional videographer shooter and editor, just saying 😊

[@henricberg7346]

1min of video is a minimum of 10mins to edit. Often can take 20-30mins. 40mins would bee 400mins/60min= 6,5h of edit.. that's alot of time.

[@moneymanfl5052]

100% agree would love a little longer videos !!! Please

[@NewcastleMatt]

[@ibanez720rg]

I always get happy when there's a new home build. Watching the foundation and initial frame work is my favorite part.

[@keithhhays4335]

Stoked to watch this project! My parents had a summer place in Waynesville for about 50 years. Lots of great memories in the area. Dad is 94 and mom is 90. We watch your channel together when I visit them.

Finally, a new one begins! I wish to have your videos longer, 20 minutes feels like nothing. Love to watch your videos. It would be great to have them a bit longer, at least every now and then. High five to every one of you guys 👋

[@michaelvaiotu1246]

3 or 4 x 1 hour episodes per week would be awesome

[@Michael-ui1sy]

@michaelvaiotu1246 that's to much 😅 they wouldn't be able to do as much. But little bit more would be great 👍

[@pkrbacker1]

Man I'm just super thankful for your channel and these dudes, thanks for keeping it clean so i can watch with my kids! Super rad build and excited to see it come together!

[@neddyboy01]

I remember setting a foundation and the diagonal was exact to the millimeter. It's such a good feeling. Pro tip, only use steel measure tapes when setting foundation, plastic tapes stretch.

[@TNH91]

Or laser measure, AFAIK those should be "fairly" accurate

[@AdventuringwiththeS.G.O.C.C]

Former contractor/remodelor/developer and this channel is by far the best builders channel I have see. Real problems and solutions. Great stuff everytime.

[@jefff6167]

What a beautiful house. Oh yeah that boy can play, the banjo. We’ve got to get you guys to a million plus subs, soon.

[@jtmack77]

Jamie should have been able to take the CAD drawing and overlay a drone shot of the cleared area. Would have made the 'best fit' portion a lot easier.

[@drTheory]

don't even need a drone.. just mesure the area with a tape and draw it on a piece of paper then overlay the cut model tloris of the house and play with it.

[@Jokerdude444]

Ahhh snap. Ive been going down the videos watching every single episode of the house builds and just finished part 80 of the farmhouse. Now i get to start a brand new one!

[@most-average-athelete]

I live in one of those glass flats and work in the city in London, yet this is the only youtube channel I follow every video from. I have no hope to shoot a single nail in the near future! :)

[@davidkearley9192]

This is going be an epic series. Let’s gooo! Probably going be 50+ videos series. Wish they were longer vids. But current length keeps me coming back for more.

[@realnickcarson]

Highlights were the final Diagonal win for y’all and the banjo which was freaking awesome!

[@peterthebricky]

You have to be in the building game to understand the joy when the diagonal measurement was spot on

[@marymigliore3396]

Holy Cow ! That is one big house !! I'll be watching ! I LOVE YOU ALL @ P.B.B. !!!!!!

[@DanVaughn11]

I'd totally watch much longer content from y'all. I watch a 2-3 hour episode of Vice Grip Garage far too often.

[@rossmatheson4303]

Wow, guys! This looks epic. Gonna be a hundred part series going by Merel's house previously. So looking forward to it. The finished plans on the Thumbnail looks amazing.

[@williammorales9826]

Smart move to wait until after the rain to start digging. You're saving the owner between 3 to 5 yards of concrete on the footers. I've seen the damage rain can do and you definitely do. As a ready-mix driver trying to explain to the owner that they weren't shorted on the concrete,well you've been there

[@ElvisKremmen]

What an incredible spot to build a house, so excited to see this series progress.

[@wilbready]

I am super excited to see this project! Just when I am slowing down and preparing to retire, you Perkins Bros and crew keep killing it. I shall live vicariously through you and this channel. If ever I find myself in North Carolina, I might look y’all up. ~WilPaul

[@roncar4349]

when you turn on you tube and the latest Perkins is uploaded 🍿😁this build will be awesome!

[@AndersonFamilyHomesNV]

This one is significantly bigger and more complex. Should be exciting.

[@corridean]

I honestly love y’all series of houses I’m doing construction myself well I’m a student doing construction but honestly when I started watching y’all I started to fall in love with the work y’all do 😊😊😊

Cripes, this is a massive project looking forward to this fantastic new Perkins Crew build. Welcome to the new guy Max, like your Banjo playing skills Max. Cheers for the reel Eric.

[@johndehoog5567]

Let Erik talk too!! Nice balance of commentary between the two brothers. Hope PBB are as excited about the build as we are out here in armchair building land.

[@ameenshalash9971]

I love your content. Me and my brother grew up the same way you and Janmie did . I learn something new every video. Keep it up guys love it

Got to be the biggest project so far. Good luck guys. Looking forward to all the instalments.

This is the build that will get you to 1 million subs fast now …. Let’s go!!!

[@prodigalsorcerer1415]

Get a reMarkable tablet for things like this. It's e-ink like a Kindle so it works better in sunlight. It can import jpgs and pdfs and works with layers so you can work non-destructively.

[@ModernOakCarpentry]

All of that dirt work was awesome! Good thing the homeowner did it because that would be just as much as the house build!

[@elliott4570]

Love those mountains! This is going to be spectacular!

[@anthonydowd8180]

Great video Jamie, get or hire a geomax robotic total station you can survey the plot beforehand overlay the plot on Cad then load the cad plans for the house straight into it and set it out easy and it's great for checking the foundations as you dig them as well .

[@kiwigeeknz]

Banjo soundtrack needed for this series. Nice playing.

[@Mymindisablank]

Whilst your in them thar hills who will be the one squealing?

[@lacesoutalex_]

I checked out from the channel for a while because so many of the builds were the same so im actually really interested to watch this one. Because this is a modern build, i hope there is more Matt Risinger level building science involved in this build and that you let Jaime actually talk about it!

[@carlfowlkes654]

Super excited about this build it's definitely something to be proud of taking on a job of this magnitude.

[@michaelc.3812]

I understand that the rule of thumb for videos is that each minute of length takes an hour of editing time, which would be around 20-25 hours twice a week for Eric. I’m not sure you can make them longer and still have time to sleep, but 35-40 minute videos would be GREAT IMHO!!

[@wernermoura7326]

Hello guys...I confess that this project gave me butterflies in my stomach, there are a lot of numbers to analyze...I will follow each step because in this mega project I will learn a lot. May the force be with you. Big hug from São Paulo - Brazil.

[@Piewalkermatt]

UAP flyby @16:30, then cue the biggest baddest synthwave @16:41 (Erik: more of this music please!). Big bugs don't fly in a large elliptical pattern with a flat trajectory, traverse >100 feet in less than 1 second (45 frames), and don't look like a perfect dark cylinder with rounded edges like a tic-tac. The transparent wings are a visual foil of mimicry using signature management, as shown in many other UAP cases. Look at the last frame upon its exit stage right @16:31 - the 14th frame to be exact (use < and > to move 1 frame either direction in KZbin). In 4K, the edges are sharp, so you'd think you'd be able to see at least the shape of the thorax and abdomen, if not the head, too. And the supposed "wings" - they look like they're coming off the tail. And you'd be able to hear big bugs like that, but the microphone doesn't pick up anything that sounds like a big buzzing bug - you should hear it within 10 feet! Could it be a bug? Maybe. But it just doesn't behave or look like one upon closer inspection. And we know the phenomenon is real. Additional video analysis is needed. :)

[@rockfosg]

Worked with concrete for 20 years. Have checked a building for square maybe 5 times 😂 Your flat site right there is a dream. My last job was a 200'x50' office building. Always using total station with prisms, usually that company also makes 3D plans for the excavators. We also put up new grid lines for every floor we start on. We just start with lets say 12m/40 ft of footing in a corner, It fits the length of the rebar, and the PERI maximo we are using. Then we alternate back and forth or just go the whole length before we start the next side. 3-4 pours for 200ft.. Pour footings and walls everyday, and dont stop for bad weather..

[@dannagy546]

Oh im so excited for this build! Love modern homes, love homes in the mountains!

9:15 when you pin all your plans together, put sheets of acetate between each page and now you can mark your plans as much as you like and then lift the acetate away when you need the unedited version. Just use sharpies or even whiteboard markers like you would if drawing on glass or a whiteboard.
