Renovating An Abandoned 100 Year Old Tiny House |

[@fleacat5799]

You're doing great. Just remember, no matter how big a job it is, it gets done one step at a time. Everything you do is adding to the whole. 👍

[@emmashaye]

thanks for the reminder 💜💜

[@Reet64]

You’re doing great, young woman!

[@MrKnotWright]

Emma, if you are replacing all the siding, its much easier to remove it if you start from the top and work your way down, then it wont fight you so hard. Just reverse the way it was installed. Glad to see you taking a little break from cleaning the BIG job, that way you don't get burnt out doing the same task every day, variety is the spice of life :-D

[@connorohoare7470]

The faces you pulled while taking the siding off are brilliant! It’s a cross between determination and trying not to get that dust and hay in your mouth 😂

[@donnag9829]

A tall door with a transom would be amazing ❤ your so talented and can’t wait to see all your progress!

[@emmashaye]

That would be gorgeous! Thank you so much! 💜

[@nurseshaye2099]

I'm throughly enjoying your journey. Cheers to your mom and mine.

[@emmashaye]

Cheers! 💜

[@scalestudio71]

Love every episode. Can’t wait for the next one. Great work be safe

[@chuck196811]

Consider taking things down in the order they went up. Start from the top of siding and work down.

[@marceloandstacypereyra1527]

Hi Emma! I love watching your videos in the morning and "cheers"ing my dad as you "cheers" your mom. I work from home and provide part time day care for my grandson and great nephew. Your videos are both relaxing and inspiring. I always get more done on an Emma Shaye Day! Thank you....Stacy

[@heather87135]

You're awesome, Emma!👏💕

[@ogamhunter]

You rock my world little country girl! You got her coming along, going to look great. God Bless you and your father! (Glen) WV.

[@Echo.826]

Doing great young lady!! Keep up the good work!! We're all cheering you on!❤

[@nicolemabie2111]

So glad I came across your channel you're so amazing I enjoyed watching

[@LisaKLivlaughlove]

So happy to another episode of you and your tiny house!

[@emmashaye]

Thank you!! 💜

[@crashatrek]

Small suggestion when you said you had a problem and you ran out of nails, keep a couple of the sleeve things of nails in your tool belt this way if you’re stuck on the ladder and you run out, you don’t have to worry about having the peace taking the peace down

[@lookinglassminiature]

Enjoying watching your progress. Just found your channel. I love that you are getting stuck in with the work. When I was around 18, I helped my dad with some construction projects and loved it. Jenn

[@emmashaye]

It's so much fun!!

[@karenwright9123]

You are doing so good on your own. I'm cheering my "peeps",too,there are a lot of them. I've been an orphan a long time,yeah I know.😊We soldier on!🤗You be safe and you have a beautiful day,too.🌄🌞

[@janicehalsey5511]

Your Papaw was very handsome! I was only 16 when mine passed and now I’m almost 56, I miss him as much as I ever did 💔 Love your new fur baby, she is so sweet!!

[@farmerbill6855]

The last piece is pretty janky but good job. Set your saw for depth so it just cuts through the OSB and instead of hanging the cutoff piece out in midair, slide a 1x4 under the top sheet and let the other sheets hold it as you finish your cut. You're doing fine. Oh yea, rough side out, label side in. Best regards from Indiana.

[@emmashaye]

Lol yeah, the last piece is coming down in the next few days that's why I didn't spend time on it ;) but good tips, thank you!!

[@JohnByrne-r2j]

Well done Emma great job keep it going 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@bradleybrobst2424]

Hahaha "well that's tight as balls" comment was hilarious! 😂😂.. keep up the good work. You're doing great!

[@emmashaye]

🤣 thank you!!

[@bradleybrobst2424]

@emmashaye look you're doing a great job..nevermind the naysayers, you just keep doing you and everything will fall into place..some things will seem like they take forever to do, but the outcome is totally worth it. Looking forward to more videos!

[@tracidaniel7462]

I had a cat I named Raja . She was the most loving cat I have ever owned. Love your channel.

[@emmashaye]

Aww, that's so sweet. Thank you so much! 💜

[@teaeff8898]

You can cut up all that siding and have kindling for the next 3 years. 😉😄 I always enjoy your videos.

[@Lasagna-cl2sc]

Hello Emma ! Nothing like having a “ Emma Episode “ to start the day off ,lol !! Keep up the work you’ll get there eventually !

[@emmashaye]

Hi!! Hope you enjoyed! :)

[@BARRENLAKEDJ]

Hello from Kentucky. Keep up the good work young lady

[@emmashaye]

Hello! Thanks so much! :)

[@kathrinekerns8398]

I am happy to see you working on your tiny house. It will be very nice once you get it secured. 💞💞💞

[@anngallegos5515]

I also have a supply of NWTF stuff! Been a member for many years! Turkey season will be here soon.

[@shellydehart8217]

It’s looking great Emma. You did a fine job getting those boards up all by yourself. I was real impressed you using that heavy duty nail gun. Those aren’t light, they’ve got some weight to them. I’ll stick to my Ryobi nail gun. Rest up n eat your Wheaties to build up those muscles. ♥️🥰👍🌟

[@michaelirizarry5037]

you are doin great emma!

[@jasondahl143]

Glad I work nights to catch this Ultra Early Episode. I'm from the Sorta Upper Midwest. Also, please wear safety glasses while pulling the old wood. Potential to get slivers on your eyes!

[@emmashaye]

Good call, I will!! Thank you!

[@mcglinnen]

I love it. A guy would have looked at getting those larger pieces up by building s system with ladders, pulleys, rope and braces and taken an hour setting it up. Emma, I think I'll just cut these into manageable pieces . Perfect.

[@emmashaye]

Haha thank you!

[@katieallen3927]

Scaffolding would probably be safer than the tall ladder and considering how much work on multiple buildings you are doing would be a good investment that you can sell when you no longer need it.

[@emmashaye]

So true!

[@susanbezecny1353]

I'm so excited for you. You are making great progress. Go you. You are so brave working with the saw. I never was able to do that. I was afraid of the thing lol

[@susantraylor1604]

Love you video ❤️ can’t wait to see you building everything!

[@kevincorbin6273]

Cheers!

[@VickieEck]

I sooooo glad I found your channel!!’ Cool beans!!! Go girl!’n❤️

[@emmashaye]

Thank you so much!! 💜

[@brandid710]

Good Morning!! Love your videos. Cheers to our Mommas!

[@emmashaye]

Good morning and cheers to mommas! 💜

[@michaelharris3009]

Enjoy your channel,lots of work ahead.You might give a thought to clearing those trees and brush out of your work area things would be a lot easier to do with a clear space.

[@emmashaye]

thank you so much! yes, it needs clearing really badly. i'm tired of tripping over ivy vines 😅

[@margeinterlante4382]

You go girl!!!!

[@billisaacs702]

"If only I had thumbs, I could help." 🤣

[@pepitapulgarcita5051]

Good job, good progress ❤

[@tomkendrickii]

Just a small tip when pulling nails is to place the hammer head under the pry bar to add leverage. Loving the videos your doing great.

[@trapspamalot]

Are you not going to frame it with studs on 16” centers ? Or, are you going to do that from the inside ? Be careful of the kickback on that circular saw… you have to be the boss of it, don’t let it be the boss of you 😊 when removing the boards, It will be much easier if you hit them near where they are nailed. When they bounce, that is just wasted energy. Also, pulling the nail is a lot easier than pulling the boards. You are lucky in that it is so old that it is coming apart fairly easily. 👍

[@emmashaye]

I wasn't planning on adding studs except for in areas where I add windows. But now I need to consult pops :)

[@paulsander5433]

@@emmashaye 16" studs are part of the uniform building code. Depending on where you want to take these structures, you might have to plan for that.

[@krystalwolfe8090]

@@emmashaye that’s hard frame . I would put studs inside as you need them. Personally for me it would be cheaper. Adding more studs to hard wood is just adding unnecessary work.

[@mikegazaille7687]

Absolutely love watching your videos! You're so cute and have a can do attitude,wish I could go there and help!❤❤❤❤

[@outdooradventuresdave]

You go Emma love take your time doing a great Job lv ❤

[@Joe-x1z4x]

Great job 👍 👍

[@damianmackinnon5742]

Love watching your channel, I have only just found it. I have to remember that your seasons are opposite to ours here in Australia. It’s interesting to see how the different building codes between the two countries are, but it’s fun to watch (curses not withstanding 😂)

[@tada8092]

As I was preparing my latte to toast our mom's, I wondered if you had a dog. (New viewer). Love your spunk! ❤ My mom loved her coffee! And Diet Coke. 😊

[@davidschine242]

Raja is so beautiful. What made you name her that? You're doing a good job. Just a helpful comment it's easier to remove clap board from the top down. I so wish i could be there to assist you. Once again wonderful job and don't let that beautiful Dobbie be a stranger in your vids. Take care

[@hankpeganoff3953]

Your doing great Emma Be careful on the Ladders when working alone

[@markdurbin4623]

Many are using OSB nowadays. Keep it dry. It will absorb moisture, swell, and disintegrate.

[@kevindonovan121]

Glasses ALWAYS!!!

[@maryellenkrause7126]

Your grandpa would be so proud of you.

[@imtonedeaf1]

Sometimes demo easier with flat shovel or a 2by4 gives more leverage

[@diggingmary129]

Loving your progress, and your jeans who are they made by!? ❤ Cute pup’s!!

[@emmashaye]

my jeans are Shein, but thrifted! :) and thank you!! 💜

[@peggygarrison3876]

Looks great but that ladder set up is scary...I would invest in one of those scaffold type ladders and maybe a hard hat...as dorky as they look it would keep your head a little safer.

[@cecropianmoon]

What type of vines were you pulling off there? I only ask because it looks (with the hairy tendrils) very much like poison ivy vines.

[@vancekitra3122]

Store, Tiny House, it doesn't matter. I'm watching.

[@7seriesmax]

Never discount the old books. I have a book from 1838 for millwrights, shipwrights and machinist. I referred to it a dozen times to learn to fix things that I didn’t know how to fix. One of those things was repairing the second floor support beams in 150 year-old factory the company I worked for bought. The beams were 14”x18“ that had been severely damaged from years of a leaky roof. If it wasn’t for the shipwright section of that book. I never would’ve been able to fix them properly. The building currently houses Pollock auto restoration in Pottstown, Pennsylvania, but it used to be the Acme sewing needle factory. Every repair I did had to be able to support cars that weighed 12 to 14,000 pounds from the brass era. I had that book for 15 years before I used it the first time. Yes I’m old but I love my books. I admire what you’re doing because you bit off alot but I think you can do it.

[@lemontool]

grandpa had style

[@Kimella777]

❤😊

[@valorieforzano3372]

Girlfriend, you are doing amazing work, I really enjoy following this journey, but I will have to say the lack of safety glasses in this video is making this mamma nervous! 😰

[@renateirissijbesma8248]

My parents both died and my mother when I was 16 and my father when I was almost 27 and me and my father often made things together from wood and liked to do odd jobs. I have a number of his shirts and I often wear them so that you have him around you and I buy his favorite deodorant so that I can still smell him

[@emmashaye]

i'm so sorry for your loss. that is so sweet. having their things around helps a lot 💜

[@normaaliciarodriguez6966]

No, the camera didn’t stop. Everything was fine. Also putting up the board the plywood.

[@goblinking4995]

You need a saw saw make a small hole then cut straight down

[@kevinhudson5570]

Won’t your osb be racked when they have to jack up the building to fix the foundation?

[@peggynorton5145]

Doing a great job! But you some carpenter pencils and wear your carpenter apron to hold your small items.

[@raccoonlover9640]

looks good but you do have some small gaps and outside edge is off top and bottom are not flush with each other

[@Rebel-76]

About time you got you a guard dog, so let me get this straight people would rather see you work on a tiny house then find treasures in that general store, you must have a lot of women on your channel.

[@Just_a_lil_Loopie]

You need a scaffold

[@emmashaye]

Agreed. Now that you say that.... I think I had one in my general store. The search is on!

[@chuckclark9464]

👍👍👍🫵🪨❤️ it.

[@emmashaye]

Thank you!!

[@alicebunt5453]

Cheers to all the moms that are no longer with us.

[@AlisaCopp]

Do you have any bird feeders up?

[@_Boregard_Rippy_]

.... gobble gobble gobble ...!

[@bennym1956]

Seems like you should finish one project before starting another one. With 2 projects, just slows down the old store project.

[@hermithag]

I think it's smart. There is so much down time between projects waiting for equipment, lumber/supplies, permits, weather. . .

[@krystalwolfe8090]

Too bad you can’t find some windows. Looking dark inside

[@davidrussell9078]

Get you a bucket,toss all your old nails in.

[@emmashaye]

Great idea!

[@patriciaverbeeck8263]

Are you checking into whether you need permits to do the work you are doing? It would be a shame to be in the middle of something, have an inspector "drop by" and put a stop to your project!

[@jg934]

a plus thumbnail game

[@lindaalbano6868]

Why are your dogs tied up outside

[@leonmarut7092]

naughty girl no safety specs please wear

[@emmashaye]

i do most of the time! :)

[@darylmorse7337]

Why brush off the bottom seal when there will be alot more stuff just falling back down onto it when you continue to pull down the siding? You are just causing yourself extra work.

[@emmashaye]

because once the OCB goes on, that area is a lot harder to reach, and some of it impossible to reach. better to do it right and get it all out at the beginning, and then clean up anything else later

[@darylmorse7337]

@emmashaye I was originally thinking that when you were going to continue tearing off the upper boards, that more pieces of wood etc would just fall back down there again. But it kinda looks like it will just fall to the outside. You did make alot of progress. : )

[@darylmorse7337]

Were you trying to use the nail gun without the air compressor on?

[@emmashaye]

No, my dad and I were trying to figure it out and we still don't really know what the problem was, but he let all the air out and we tried again and eventually he got it to work. It was odd!

[@JoeMapes]

Any ideas on how you might dedicate the Store to your Mom's Memory once it's done?

[@JoeMapes]

Have you been tested for diabetes? You mentioned you and your Dad get irritable and hungry. I thought that too until I got tested and it wasn't hunger, but blood sugar. It's treatable and I feel so much better now.

[@JoeMapes]

Im up too early to be first viewer.
