Roof metal getting installed on the garage!

[@duckofalltrades]

Nate playing the leaf guitar looking like a dork cracks me up every-time!!!! 😂 I say that lovingly.

[@lauraheyman2011]

Agreed! He knows how to have fun! ❤😂

[@amberandrews6842]

🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@duckofalltrades]

@@lauraheyman2011 exactly!

[@hischildjo4693]

This has been quite the project! ☺ I've enjoyed watching this so much mostly because of how you've masterfully positioned the Twitch camera for us live, then explaining to us in these long videos what was happening in each phase and to top that off, the inclusion of all the fun that we got to be a part of!! I will miss these guys a lot when they finish and hope they will be able to come back to help you again in the future. With that said, I also look forward to your adding the finishing touches! Well done, Nate and thank you! ❤

[@keldaMouse]

Nate that crew is so much fun and interesting. It was a great series. You really should leave the upstairs ceiling open. I love cathedral ceilings. Blessings to you all.

[@eva.valo.00]

Every time I see the homestead logo image, it makes me really happy to see Jen included in it. I'm so glad you chose to include her, and that the artist was able to do so. ❤

[@shannarastorm451]

I’d definitely be sat with Az, giving him cuddles too ❤

[@debbiestyer453]

Nice big garage.. it's beautiful...

[@country-m1]

that garage is bigger and nicer than most houses

[@Waveluth]

Nate as I’ve said in the past. I am a retired architect/builder. If that were my garage I would most definitely install some collar ties. Some 48” ties will only leave a 25” flat spot so you would still be a cathedral ceiling. You could also pop a scissor web over the roof rafters. You could get away with 2x4’s It looks great!! 👍👍✌️🇺🇸😎

[@anonconspicuous6910]

Unrelated question: do you eat chicks that die? If a mink bleeds out young poultry, is it like Dinosaur Veal?

[@Sparkeycarp]

I was a framer and a G.C. for thirty years before I became an electrician. I listen to and read what architects and engineers lay down. Do the collar ties. You will sleep better over the years with heavy winds. Love watching your channel. I spent a lot of time with my grandfather in my youth doing similar things and learning ranch stuff. Wish I could do the homestead thing, but I doubt I could get my city wife to enjoy it. It would be like the old TV show Green Acres.

[@Waveluth]

@ 🤣oh man that brings back some real good memories!” Green Acres” was a great show. Mr. Haney???🤣🤣 Thank you Sparky that made my day!! And thanks for agreeing about the collar ties. Without them a tornado/tropical storm would give the roof frame as it is a real hard time. With the proper collar tie setup it can make the difference between having a complete roof after a storm or a section of roof. Thanks again !! Nate is doing what I’d love to do but my spoiled wife of 47 years would not🤣🤣🤣🤣 ✌️👍🇺🇸😎

[@kelliephoenix]

Looks awesome, Nate! The crew did a great job! 👏😊

[@aizhongwen]

A beautiful spacious garage house, the contractor team is professional. 😂🐕🐩🐔🐈😃

[@piusslowman101]

Taking a sexy shot everytime Nate saying a sarcastic ye-yeah

[@dawnmarie-galaxylive5190]

How many shots did you take lol, I lost count 😂

[@ScottWigfield-jc3ku]

I really like the black color on the roof glad the garage is weather tight before the weather turns bad 😅😊

[@E50creative]

YES YOU NEED COLLAR TIES AND ONE DOWN THE MIDDLE ON THE TOP OF THERE

[@bulkvanderhuge9006]

Send these guys down to do my Roof, Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton showed me where all the leaks are.

[@duckofalltrades]

They did a great job! Seamless metal roofing looks great…unless someone installs it not knowing what they are doing. They did an amazing job. Must be because Minion was supervising.

[@amberandrews6842]

Minion is really good, isn't he? A complete professional! 🥰🥰

[@cleanmikeandtheboys3165]

Nate, your work means a lot to people like my mother and I. As a result, I suspect that you yourself have grown to mean a lot to us too. We love you brother.

[@hanslindgren401]

Cool to see other roofers work

[@ruddysavage4064]

I believe with that underlayment you wont need an airspace ventilation as long as you completely fill the ceiling with insulation. R38 is perfect, you'll be satisfied after you rock it with a vapor barrier. Im starting to get jealous, LOL.

[@richardroyles1423]

You’re going to have a sweet garage. God bless.

[@rickpratt8789]

3' or 4' collar ties, every other set of rafters, wouldn't be bad. Besides helping the joint at the ridge, it would also be a little easier to install sheetrock or panels, if that's your plan.

[@carolyncarlson6410]

You get the space you need now to take care of Lord Minion's affairs in the manner fitting him, plus neat stuff for Jen n you- well earned!

[@cathysweet1905]

Looking fantastic ❣️❣️❣️❣️

[@SandraCrockett]

Very cool garage!

[@kimberlykusiak2526]

That's a big building. While the guys were finishing up on one side as the sun was going down. It looked like you had under roof lighting. That was a beautiful picture.

[@dianadriverasbury9130]

Great building.

[@betsyschneider5740]

Love watching the garage build. You must be so excited. You've been waiting a long time. It looks great. I know you will enjoy it in the years to come. ❤🎉

[@AllanWorks]

i'm glad you did double windows on each end it will allow so much light in requiring less energy use for lighting.

[@NextProjectawesome]

With nc getting levelled in places, I think the extra peace of mind adding straps is smart thing to do for future tornadoes

[@dmtnw4480]

I've liked watching the building process

[@ChadGPT-1.0]

Gorgeous workmanship.

[@PRO4XKEV]

Looks great, I love it, it is HUGE...

[@tankiadam4967]

That foam is absolutely going to help, one of our rental properties has a metal roof for the back porch and in the summer it gets so hot it’s radiating so much heat it feels like you are out in the sun. We have another property where an old garage we are using as storage was reroofed with metal. All we did was take off the old shingles put on2x4s flat going sideways and then metal on top, and it is so much cooler in there because the old sheathing is still there from the old roof, and that alone blocks the radiant heat from the metal roof so much that it is often colder inside the storage than outside, even without any sort of cooling.

[@paulrivers7248]

I agree it definitely helps insulate but I miss the sound of the rain on mine when I wanna take a nap on my swing in my glassed in back porch lol I can still hear it but not like I could if it didn't hv the foam lol

[@elizabethdean7235]

We've always put the screws up on the raised up parts bc it keeps it from leaking later on bc when u have it down on the flat parts it will later on leak but it's looking so good nate congratulations on getting a nice garage and storage

[@drifter503]

Awesome, good for you Nate, that’s looking great

[@Mewsielynx]

Yay !!! Thought the actual build went quickly...gonna be awesome...cannot wait till move in...😊❤😊

[@markrenfrow9873]

Nice job!

[@RobertPechar-o1e]

It’s looking 👀 cool so far 😊

[@scheltschmelts3785]

Where are you gonna put the fireman's pole?

[@redneckdickjohnson]

Definitely need a fireman’s pole in case of emergency. 😜🤩

[@elizabethnisotis334]

It’s looking really, really good! You’re going to be happy with it, I’m sure 👍🏻

[@doriswilliams6422]

I so enjoyed watching that garage go up i love that

[@valerie362]

It really is SO cool! I've learned so much! Doesn't hurt that I love watching men being men 😊I'm terrified of electricity, so I won't be doing it but the electrolysis was amazing. Also, I'm the one that made Jen laugh about wanting a relationship like y'all next time. Just don't tell my current husband of 18 years ;)

[@markstott6689]

Downlights under the garage eaves would look good. The way the sun was shining through when only one side was roofed gave me the idea.

[@anthonyhale2154]

Yeah boy! Them WV boys up there in saddle boots.

[@kkeenan536]

I don’t think the reflective “insulation “ needs any space, (I have a sunscreen for the car that’s the same stuff & it sits against the glass (obviously 😁) reflecting heat and light away. The garage is epic, really good job 👏👍

[@alexd2555]

Looks real nice. The collar ties will make it more stable, you live in a mountain and it snows. I think it’s worth it.

[@CakeboyRiP]

Hearing these guys talk confirmed it to me. Good bits drill a lot of holes.

[@KE458S]

I may comment more during the video but I've never drilled pilot holes on sheet metal roofing. All self tappers with the rubber gasket, never had a bad seal. Use lexel if you do. I also love the smaller silver vein type metal. All types of vein look good. Especially red.

[@cinder7183]

Very impressive.

[@jodirauth8847]

So glad you are making such great progress.

[@KellyHull-q3e]

That is looking really good

[@will90002010]

With all that roof area, are you planning to do another rainwater collection system? It would be awesome to have a full build tutorial on your channel. I just finished mine here in Kentucky and used a lot of what I saw on your channel. Thanks for doing what you do, you're helping to inspire the next generation of homesteaders!

[@veessayin2878]

A cathedral ceiling would be beautiful.

[@daifeichu]

That's a nice looking roof. Agree that collar ties are not always needed especially a roof like that without ceiling joists.

[@EchosOfWhiterun_5555DocOfStyle]

Hey Nate: that's a pretty *IMPRESSIVE* structure and you must be very *PROUD* of it. In the past year, you have done a lot of work in order to improve the *Homestead* enough for you to be able to say that it is *HOMELY* for the *2 of you + all of the ANIMALS* to be able to live there forever. Now, that is what I like to see!!! ~ JonseyG 👲💖🎉🎉😊😊

[@kelly_1984]

That's really neat to see all the finer points of the construction process. When the garage is complete it should serve you very well for a long long time. Do you plan to install a Weathervane and or a lightning rod?🤔 🤠👍🍺

[@Narrowayhomestead]

Probably not but I haven't given it much thought yet lol

[@jeffpitoniak]

I think there should be a rule that every video must include Minion, az, and the cats... no exceptions! Lol

[@amberandrews6842]

🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@charlieann456]

I don't know how to build, so I depend on Minion to approve a project. Without Minion, I am not sure it was done correctly.

[@VermontHomesteadAdventures]

This is a great update Nate.

[@dennisgaskins8393]

😎 Nate. Looking great, man. I look forward to each video you post. @ 64 I'd enjoy a visit with you & Jen, etc. Keep all good needs going. Come a long ways. Besafe. Wk.ed. blessing to all yal.

[@Ocean2057-x1m]

Watched on Twitch, so cool to watch up close. Great crew, great work, great garage. 👏👏👏

[@mmiller1011]

I thought the reflection side was down. When we replace decking in TX it was down. Works great But I’m no contractor.

[@cajunsurvivor]

Spyder bits are great drills

[@Wulfnoff]

Collar ties are completely optional in your situation and area. I wouldn't worry about it given the schedule of enforcement in the rafter spacing.

[@RonWieloch]

Few ceiling fans for upper?✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

[@DonRennie-m6i]

I just fast forward some parts, or if I’ve already watched it on another platform. I watch KZbin first because I think that pays you the most.

[@Mewsielynx]

Tis not appropriate responding to private issues..you already know Nate..and I do thankyou for the heart .😮

[@jenniewolford1631]

looks fantastic!!

[@Afraidofbutts]

I would live in that if I were you bro!

[@swanheezy]

Spyder bits are my favorite

[@Strugglingdisciple]

Youre gonna need to rent a JLG to get those solar panels on that roof.

[@CoralieNah]

I’m loving the intro.

[@FRY1245]

Love it 😊

[@laramatthews2082]

If it creaks on a windy day you can always add collar ties

[@AlJAMIE20]

Boys must be working on this part time. They seem to be taking a long time

[@codyproctor3346]

I might live in the garage lol

[@elliotlake1882]

That bubble foil usually isnt high heat rated. Watch for melting and crisping next summer. And yeah, it needs at ;east an inch of space to radiate the ir light into. Also, is it vented at all?

[@CarolSneath]

😂😂❤❤it's now one he'll of a MAN'S CAVE.💝💝💖💖💖

[@charleshershberger8691]

But think you still should make the guest room up there even the office you can never go wrong with having an extra room

[@chrisp5426]

If you watch the video, you’ve obviously liked it….. so leave a like on the video!

[@snowmanrainmaker]

In my opinion it does need the crossmember! Just worried about long-term and high winds and unexpected weather conditions?

[@zerodegrees8]

Pre drilling metal roofing? Now I’ve seen it all 😂

[@pietermeyer9740]

Are you gonna move the solar panels to the roof later maybe?

[@lynkinteegarden3527]

Personally I hate the double bubble repaired too many building where it’s falling apart and flaking. Besides that building looks amazing!

[@Befread]

Why predrill? Roofing screw are designed like self tapping screws and have a rubber washer to help prevent leaking. Also can we see the total price when done?

[@Concreteer]

Those guys really need some felt tip clamps to control that metal better, but decent job

[@otisbecker]

I could write a long dissertation on the substandard framing practices that have been used in the build that’s been put up for viewing if I thought you were actually posting a “how to” piece. I’m just a casual viewer on this channel. Your content is entertaining I wish you success. The little dog is interesting. There are other how to videos out there on framing if you post your contact info I’ll send them along

[@mrdesign1680]

like the new intro!

[@paulrivers7248]

9:55 well with 2x10 ceiling joist "may be 2x8 looks like 10s to me" but i could be wrong lol but with those 2x10 joist you really dont need them i mean it wouldn't hurt to put them there but i agree u really dont need them..

[@snakey319]

looking more like a home than your home now.

[@valerie362]

Also at 2:28 that's what she said 😂

[@JoeyWoodpine69]

I've drilled way more holes than this guy

Looks great, Nick! My only question/concern is, why are they working without any safety gear.

[@charlieann456]

7:53 you can see a tether on the man as he works near the edge and again at 8:38.

[@johnscott2849]

Hey Nate do you or your girlfriend pull the felt filter out of your washing machine? You should . The back of it gets real dirty. I never read all the instructions so I don’t know if they recommend it. I just wash it. Garage looking good.

Az said homie you treat her right or I'm gonna cuteness her outta your arms 🤣😂

[@DonRennie-m6i]

You’ve really turned this social Medea thing into a real successful business. Congratulations! I watch you on most of the platforms. I really need to know when I fast forward the content, does it affect your payment ?

[@Narrowayhomestead]

I think fast forward does affect the pay as it's based on watch time. But honestly watch however you want, if faster is better for you then do it!

[@dagwood1327]

I use cobalt bits.

[@Swampkrew]

Cobalt bits are what you want. 😊

[@leighwhite9656]

The screws should never be installed beside the high profile rib, yes screws have a water tight seal but over time they will decay then you will have too get a new roof

[@ThatToast]

where should they be put
