Really nice job Mitch. Beautiful piece of work.

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks 👍 We are trying to get it done so we can go back to the normal routine😁Thanks for checking out the video Have a great weekend😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

You're gonna LOVE that concrete floor. Drain is a nice touch. 👌 We went with a bathroom in ours...will be nice if we ever get around to hooking it up! Interesting how concrete is done differently around the country. Congratulations!! 👍

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks 👍 I love concrete but I would love doors more 😂👍🚜💨🍳

[@patrickthomas6170]

thank u looks great lots of room , I built pole barn in Montana, and store equipment tractors,mowers etc. have gas furnace ceiling mount, Consider some big fans in ceiling to move heat and air around. Also consider spray insulation on walls and ceilings and blocking any soffit gaps. I found the insulation keeps my shop cool in summer and prevent freezing in winter for equipment and all my chemicals and paints. Also run furnace thermostat at 45 degrees and gas cost is minimal. the spray insulation also tightened up shop no squeaks or ratttling in high winds. Just some thoughts off top of my head. I also forgot overhead lighting . go overboard and also put lots of outlets , i also got 240 v outlets for my table saw, and or welder.

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks for your ideas I will be using some of them soon. I am going with the ceiling mount radiant 50foot 150,000btu tube heater and 8 high bay Led hyper lights. Lots to do but loving every minute of it. Have a great weekend 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@MannistoCay]

Looking good Mitch! You're definitely the envy of your neighborhood. 🍻🏝👍🚜

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Mark 👍 it’s getting closer to being done. I can’t wait 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@WichhartAcres]

The floor turned out great Mitch! I can't wait to have concrete down on our building! Keep up the hard work!

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Derk Concrete is nice but I still don’t have my garage doors so I’m sweeping sand up every week ha ha ha thanks for checking on the video😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@WichhartAcres]

@@MJADoingStuff oh wow did you do something special for garage doors? I remember mine took 5 months to get

[@MJADoingStuff]

@@WichhartAcres No but had to cancel because after asking 3 times for a wind code rated door it turned out the guy put down without wind code 🤔. So I ordered it from a local garage door company and cost double but should be in at the end of August.

[@DIYMyWay]

Hi Mitch! The concrete pour looked like it went really well and done by pros for sure. Loved the float cam shots! Nice touch. I hope you enjoy your barn as much as I have my shop!

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Martin 😁 I deliver concrete to them all the time at work. When you work with a good concrete crew with a great attitude it makes it easy on everyone. I can’t wait to start making things again. That’s funny the bull float shot was one of the finishers idea he makes wedding videos on the side. Thanks for leaving a comment 😁👍🚜💨🍳

Thanks Rick not one of our most popular videos but it was fun making it thanks again for watching 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@twinbrookacres]

@@MJADoingStuff My barn restoration videos are some of my most watched, but I have a tiny channel and nobody watches! LOL

[@frankbever1788]

Good job! You need this building.

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks 😁I wish I could have had it sooner but better late than never. I can’t wait to set it up to make stuff again. Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@watershedoverlook]

Really nice Mitch. I thought "no way they're gonna back a full cement truck onto that sand!" Look how wrong I was! All that prep and compactor work really payed off! 👍😎👍

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Chris😁 Can you believe the trucks were around 73K lbs each. I was surprised too. Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@RossOnTheLand]

Spectacular! Well done.

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Ross your #1 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@JustCaidsDayFarm]

That is one nice building! I can't imagine how excited you are! I'm excited and it isn't even my building lol. I'm sure you will have no problem filling it up! Nice work!

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Justin 👍 I can’t wait to get the doors so I can start setting up shop. Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@bhall7997]

Looking good lots of room for more attachments 😄

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks 😁Yep 👍 going to have to get some pallet racks up to store attachments😂Have a great weekend 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@GardenTractorBoy]

The tyre pressure system on the trucks is cool. This was great to watch and it looked like a very professional job. Concrete prices are silly over here at the moment and it was like watching them pour liquid gold :-)

[@MJADoingStuff]

I use the tire pressure system all the time it makes the truck ride more smoothly down the road. The concrete was $168US a yard and we ordered 30 yards😵‍💫Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@OrangeismyNewGreen]

Nice looking pole barn Mitch, it’s going to be a great workshop 👍🏻. I love the spot where you’ll be washing the cars 👍🏻. Does Angelo charge you any copyright fees 😉😂. Have a great weekend M.J.A. 🙂🙋🏼‍♂️👍🏻🍻

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Luc😁 I don’t charge him rent so he doesn’t charge me copyright fees win-win😂👍You guys have a great weekend too 🙋🏻‍♂️🚜💨🍳

[@PeeksPeakHobbyHomestead]

Great video! The shop is just awesome! I could have used a few of your tips when I did mine! I enjoyed this one a lot!

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Lucas😁 I wish I showed more but it was a lot to just get it done. You know how it is. Thanks for checking out the video👍 Have a great weekend 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@RickyVentures]

Hello from Minnesota! Great job!

Hello from Minnesota too😂👍Thanks 🚜💨🍳

[@LTFT83]

how big was concret slab and how much?did you just buy concret? was it your guys who finished the concret or you paid to have finishers as well. would like w break down of prices as far as concret. none the less beautiful shop.

[@MJADoingStuff]

@@LTFT83 The slab was 32’x56’x5”inch 30yards at $167 per yard of concrete and finishers cost $9150 total with concrete at time of video. We prepared the grade ourselves. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching 😁👍🚜💨☀️

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

How's she goin'? That is some sweet looking pole barn Mitch. Nice job doing the sand. That was a big job but it paid off eh. The cement trucks had no issues driving on that. It's looking good there buddy!! Take care!!!

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Mike😁 Who new sand was so strong. Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@051biohaz]

That will be a great area to film KZbin videos..lol, thanks for the upload..:)

[@MJADoingStuff]

Yep 👍 I can’t wait to get moved in and up and running. Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@JCWren]

What were you doing at the end with the roller?

[@MJADoingStuff]

Putting concrete sealer on. Sorry I should have titled it or something. Thanks for checking out the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@ericroot5043]

Looks good! How tall are your doors?

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks! 😁👍The doors are 14’ft H x 12’ft W. Thanks for watching the video 🚜💨☀️

[@bj.roberts6410]

Hey Mitch ...you guys did a fantastic job...great planning... and of course a great video. You could always use a self contain toilet... for when you get older...lol

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks 😁 I will have to remember that I do have one for the boat😂 thanks for checking out the video😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@peacefieldfarm_mn]

That will be great! You said it looks really big in there, but it fills up fast! Nice to have a floor drain, but where does it drain to? Great video, thanks for making it. Cheers!!

[@MJADoingStuff]

Hey Mike the floor drain is just for looks 👀 😉thanks for checking out the video I hope you are getting outside and enjoying our spring weather finally😂have a great weekend 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

Very nice building now,

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks 😁👍 It’s getting there 🚜💨🍳

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

I’m jealous of the pole barn

[@MJADoingStuff]

I have been wanting a pole barn shop forever😂 thanks for checking out the video. You going to the Midwest firewood frenzy?

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

@@MJADoingStuff I been wanting one for 46 years Yes, we will be there. How about you

[@MJADoingStuff]

@@larrykluckoutdoors8227 You got me beat only been waiting for 30ish years. Yep 👍 we are going see you there.

[@FromSteelToWood]

That is the best part when concrete is finally poured. If you can avoid parking your car with road salt (next winter) for the first year, that can help prevent the concrete to scale. In the second year, the concrete is not only fully cured but more resistant to salt. Ask me why I know... Thanks!

[@MJADoingStuff]

Thanks Joe👍for that information we have a lot of salt here in the winter. Do you think after I use concrete sealer it will help? Have a great weekend 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@FromSteelToWood]

Nope.... The sealer did not help me. Maybe if you wash the salt it will help. In my case, that was outside and the salt stayed on the concrete for days/weeks.

[@FromSteelToWood]

[@MJADoingStuff]

@@FromSteelToWood Ok my plan was to wash of the salt inside the pole barn in the winter. Thanks for answering my question 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@FromSteelToWood]

@@MJADoingStuff That might work then!

[@davidmartin7660]

You’re getting there now. I’ll wait to see how long before I hear about all the “stuff” that’s in there that’s not yours! Lol. Enjoy it, I’m in mine daily even after 30 years.

[@MJADoingStuff]

Yep 👍 funny you say that cause I already got people wanting to store boats motorcycles and campers 😂that is not happening I have waited to long. I am sure I will be in it a lot. Thanks for checking out the video. Have a great weekend 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@ritterjon]

💥 You don’t need a bathroom, you’ve got a floor drain! 🤷‍♂️ Also, will your building have any extra room if I buy more implements. *Keep on tractoring!*

[@MJADoingStuff]

Very true I can aim😂Also it depends on if I need the implements that you want to store🤣Have a great weekend Jon😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@alanjackson4397]

I don’t know about your area but I live in Ohio if you don’t put plastic under the concrete the floor will sweat especially where you have things sitting on it best of luck hope you enjoy your new building

[@MJADoingStuff]

Yep we used to live in a place with a lot of clay and moisture would always be a problem but were we live now is very sandy and our garage doesn’t have plastic and it is heated and very dry. Thanks this is going to be great when it is all done. Have a great weekend 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@butchhaight3320]

Noticed the wire mesh is all on the bottom It's not going to any good unless it's in the middle of the poured floor.

[@MJADoingStuff]

@@butchhaight3320 They pulled it up as it was being poured if you didn’t notice. Thanks for watching 😁👍🚜💨☀️
