I Built A Pergola

[@kevinphanson]

Nice job on the proper use of joist hangers! Those holes are not for picking and choosing... a nail belongs in EVERY hole! Kudos!

[@anonymous_bot_bot]

Great tip wit the post holder drainage holes

[@nunyabizniz1983]

This is just what I needed! Thank you for the idea. Once the weather gets better I’ll definitely be doing this in my garden. May get some plastic for the sides too so can stick my washing on the lines and they will be covered if it’s not so nice out lol 😂

[@LeighWinspear]

Where its in the ground, treat even tanalised rs/softwood in old engine oil, the black stuff. It soaks it up - especially dried wood like you have done and makes it last years longer. Try it, you might like it! Top video.....

[@trishblakely3476]

It looks so great! And it’s always a joy to see Dylan living his best life.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thanks Trish 😊

[@PabloBD]

Loved the dylan b roll. Pergola looks good so far, it will be great with your attention for detail. looking forward the second part!

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thanks so much Pablo

[@pteddie6965]

This is going to add so much enjoyment for your wife and you. I think that you did an excellent building and explaining the steps. I'm looking forward to the video where you complete the build. Thanks for the video.

[@daniel__clark]

It was a great idea to use the timber leaning against the wall to act as a platform. I'm going to remember that trick. Thanks for the great content.

[@uktony1525]

With the fascination on KZbin with cats you should possibly rename the channel "Dylan and Keith do woodworking" 😁. Great looking pergola which will be glorious to sit under with a cold beer in the summer.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Thank you

[@yontorres]

Dylan and cat. 😊

[@LeslievilleGeeks]

Get a tv inside with ZeboZAP! Literally took me 10 minutes. It straps on like a bra.

[@Ducttapeoperator]

Great video Keith

[@Toyotaamazon80series]

I'd recommend a small seat cut on the bottoms of those rafters to get them to seat fully in the hangers, 👍🔨🇮🇪

[@PhilisophicalDad]

You did great guys. Something you can stand back and look at and say, "yes. We did that". I'm getting ready to put up a frame. I kayed my patio out with 2x2x2 rock shape molds, 8x16. Now the frame and roof.

[@thecreativecardinalbyl.bet7012]

Mr. Dylan is a ⭐! Great build!

[@Stacy-hc6gv]

Looks great especially with the opal poly, watched a few videos but decided to go with yours as we like the modern look, I'm also going with the opal roof

[@stevebosun7410]

Hi Keith, looks great. Some bituminous paint on the bottom of the posts would have been my choice to help reduce rot.

[@top5tings]

Red oxide first

[@ra4yu]

im a carpenter by trade and i build a pergola for my house recently. I spent 700aud in timber although i had 3 posts and a privacy screen down the front, it took me 7 days labour(which a quick and dirty estimate here would by 500aud a day) although that included painting(it rained and the painting was 3-4 days). I didnt have to do any concrete work but thats where the uncertainty would be in this job so you would see a mark up for that if you paid somebody to do this, lucky for yours it seemed quite straight forward. Overall i think your costing is quite accurate, great job!

[@Thecovey1]

You'll never need to worry about cutting the wrong size, spin in circles or waste time trying to figure out what goes where... With ryan's detailed shed plans kzbin.infoUgkxb2mhCug-GkCWrq69Ce2I0nM0D4QpxAqu , it makes building sheds a breeze - just like putting lego bricks together! You'll be able to create the kind of shed, your neighbors and other woodworkers will secretly envy (while mumbling nice job under their breath).

[@LeslievilleGeeks]

Dont forget to get the ZeboZAP and bring out your old tv.

[@TimBielawa]

Nice build, and I love picking up your British jargon. In the states we call PAR “S4S” - surface 4 sides.

[@candela.dominguez]

I love this. It gives me ideas for my own home

[@brandonspivey8020]

Good on you man. I am a builder and it is good to see your enjoying your build .

[@stickbrick8219]

Beautiful pergola and very much enjoying your improvements to the house and shop. I appreciate and respect how you show your errors and solutions. I also like how you use the materials and tools you have versus ideal conditions. I am no carpenter but here in Canada (BC) the galvanized nails are eaten away by the preservative in pressure treated wood. (I think) We use coated deck screws with pressure treated wood.

[@keithhaycock1969]

I also use deck screws with pressure treated timbers here in the UK.

[@paulprescott7913]

Thanks Keith i picked up a few tips from this vid. Always good to see Dylan.

[@Gojirosan]

Interesting job, marvellous amount of Dylan, great video. Thank you!

[@weed5901]

The author does like to kzbin.infoUgkxkNYRBJuiJ6EwD-tQSAlxg0eFKsnR2cgz from scratch, shaping and trimming wood from large blocks into fine finished products. As another reviewer mentioned, most projects require a lot of high-dollar equipment that most of us don’t have the room or budget for. But, knowing how to do these things, even if we won’t be able to practice the full stack project, is still great.

[@LeslievilleGeeks]

Dont forget the ZeboZAP

okay!

[@frankiewalnuts]

Whats the angle ruler you're using called?

[@karenpinter493]

What is amazon link for vent tape used on edges of polycarbonate panels?

[@robertbamford8266]

Battery saw at the lumberyard - a great convenience! I’ve also started using glazer’s packers (flat shims) on top of temporary supports to get beams level before fixing. Your concerns about trapped water at the post bases is valid. I put in some posts using the type of base that you have. They were mounted on/in slightly raised concrete piers to allow drainage. And as you demonstrated you could probably use the pergola as the base for a balcony.

[@tanelviksi7574]

In Estonia (where we have long winters and it's raining a lot) we use either tar paper or birch bark in between wood and stone. It's been done like that for 1000's of years. This permits the the wood to dry and doesn't allow the moisture to creap upwards from the concrete. And of course, you need the drainage.

[@MarkLidsterfitnessgeezer]

Great tips all the way through, thanks!!

[@GrumpysWorkshop4]

Enjoyed this one Keith. Can't believe it's already more then a year ago that I built mine. I like what you did with the end joist hanger. I see you put joist hangers at the front too. I was gonna do that but didn't like the gap at the bottom. I remember actually laying my rafters on the ground with the glazing bars & then laying the sheets on to work out the exact spacing taking into account expansion gaps. I always prefer using the actual sheets rather then relying on what the measurements should be. Interested to hear what you would do different.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Cheers Dave, your build partly inspired me to have a go. Gid's recent pergola was an inspiration too 👍 I'll talk more about the spacings in the next episode, but I didn't have the sheets so had to make some guesses about spacings. It all came good, fortunately!

[@Sammo-w2y]

Hi Keith looks great. Like the painted effect. For ascetics I would consider putting additional supports that you put on the front. The 45% supports on the sides as well. You also need to seal the wall plate so that water doesn't get behind it.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

There's going to be a roof on top as explained in the video

[@Sammo-w2y]

@@RagnBoneBrown TBH I would have either fitted the wall plate so it's not touching the wall (using spacers) or sealed it straight away. From your comment I assume you will be installing a version of flashing to carry the water away.

[@jeepeopleoverland2988]

Whats the measurements on the pieces you cut at 45 degree ángle at the end on the posts

[@user-ln3bd9gz5v]

Lovely! 😎👍

[@mikes3051]

Thanks for the video it will help me load with my summer pergola project this year. Btw I loved it when your cat yawned (4:38) during your sponsor section :) you couldn't script it if you tried. Keep up the good work!.

[@traciebarrass6612]

I’m so wanting to do this for myself, but I’m also very nervous of messing it up. But thank you for sharing really enjoying watching you have given me something to think about. Xx

[@m4ckm4n59]

Have a go. If you make a mistake along the way just do that bit again. Keep the extra wood for another project :)

Great pergola and video!

Well done and well explained. Thank you,

Well done! love the choice of colour!!

[@ALWAYS_FIGHT_THE_OPRESSOR]

LOOKS GOOD

[@zwloki0]

I'm about to build one just like that, very similar way. This video saved me the guess work. Thanks

[@Jhongerage]

Looks good, but a pergola is definitely an opportunity to show off form over function and have a bit of fun. I went for routed shapes on each rafter and wooden plugs hiding carriage bolts.

[@hilalmahmoud3478]

You seem like you know what you're talking about, hopefully willing to also guide me on making my own, my garden patio isn't as big as OP

Very professional job Keith. I like the reformed joist hangers, great idea. It's very rigid. Tony

Great to see Dylan featuring in your video. Oh yeah, and the pagoda looks OK too! 😂

[@marconeill9510]

Nice one again mate 👍👍

[@dustinberg1134]

I prefer to build without hangers by resting the joists on the main beam. So then I use a notch to keep the rafters in place, much stronger than relying on screws and hangers for support. It's also less work as well.

[@hdwoodshop]

I saw someone use epoxy for sealing ends of wood legs. I think that’d seal the pergola legs too. You were smart to drill out the drain. Uk weather can get pretty wet.

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Yeah that was probably the wood whisperer. From what I've heard, it's best to let the wood breathe, get wet and dry out naturally

[@vjimmy12]

Well done , nice job

[@amananaher]

Thanks for all info

[@marcchrys]

Nice job. Much more thorough in design than I'm planning for my pergola ;-)

I have not even watched this video but just seeing the opening shot I suggest you look at what a pergola is. What you have produced is a structure for a light roof !!

Enlarge it slightly and add some suitable roofing materials = lovely carport! That's what me and the Mrs. did last year.

[@TESTA-CC]

You only need 1 straight edge, the hole saw holes and track on the other side isn't needed. It also blocks your view of cut. It also means you cant saw full length and finish off the cut because of the metal bracket at the end.

[@32dras]

You should have put pierce od brick slightly smaller then gap in post holder for space for dreinge and to dry out and let post rest on, it is solid, wouldn't settle over time and wood would be "in the air". But pergola look great!

[@adammono1839]

I had to cut half lap joints at the top of a post exactly the same but the post was concreted in so I had to do it up a ladder. That was pretty hair raising!

[@RagnBoneBrown]

Oh yeah that sounds tricky

It's really nice, please. I Want to see complete. Pagola Thanks

[@Chris-jl6vk]

great video

[@AshFromEarth]

Really helpful video! I’m doing something really similar, but was wondering when it comes to attaching the rafters, do you have to use hangers? I had it in my mind that I’d attach a beam to the wall as you did but then notch out the rafters and screw them down on top of that beam, then on the other end where they attach to the frame to notch out ‘bird mouths’ and do the same? Also I’m thinking of doing my entire frame and rafters in 100x100mm beams for a chunky country look, would you recommend leaving the wood to dry as you did? What’s the benefit to doing that vs building the frame before the wood has completely dried, and letting it dry once built and in place?

[@georgeomalley6066]

Nice Job
