Would love to see a video of all of your pre-planning for a build, how you figure your materials, from lumber to fasteners to connectors and how far out you like to have all of your materials so that you have everything once you're ready to start the build. Like how you figure out what your lead time is on everything so that you have it. I'm really curious as to how you figure out exactly what nails and screws you're going to need and quantity. That would be interesting and helpful.

[@Grantski2007]

Great suggestion he’s done a lot of full builds but not a ton from behind the scenes

[@WRX15]

Ew no 😂

[@SoTrue144]

Lumber yards do takeoff and provide plans for framing

Ambidextrous hammer work at its finest Kyle

I couldn't hammer that well with my right hand

Greg cracked me up when he broke into the Junglebook song. “Walk like you, talk like you etc” You guys work great together.

[@MarcMayrand]

Love you Chad. Praying that God covers you and strengthens you. Keep on pushing. Thank you for doing what you do. The deeper our relationship gets with God the harder the Devil tries to turn us away from God. Keep your eyes on the heavens.

[@anxietyislandllc]

Just caught your Home Depot commercial while watching Diesel Creek (KZbin site). You're killing it, bro!!! 💪♥️😁🤙 And Greg too!!!

[@fruitbooter79]

I'm really thankful to see you guys build a modest home like this vs. another 9,000,000sqft barndo. This house design actually might work perfectly for me! Super excited to see this project through and am very thankful for your videos. Thanks kyle

[@jtool101]

If overhangs is in the top 2 of your least favorite things and truss day is your favorite I would love to hear you rank all the steps from favorite to least favorite. Love the videos guys!

[@patrickkenny2077]

"Wherever you plant an RR buildings pencil a building grows." Great line, Gret. I thought the ladder for the facia was the most "Perkinsing it" moment personally.

[@mwaynem]

One thing I have never liked about pole buildings has been exposed truss tails. I was so glad to see your solution that fixes this. I'm currently getting everything together to extend my shop to make a covered parking space for my RV, and I will definitely use your design on the eaves. Thanks again for sharing your expertise and experience.

[@arrzfr]

You and Greg are the last two people on the planet who still have fun doing their job, even when it’s very tough.

[@micdiva]

Love the Perkins comment. When he said it to I thought he was joking at first

[@stevenwarner7348]

You guys are sooo good with those hammers. So impressive. Wow! ~~~ Kyle thank you so much for sharing all that you (and Greg) do. Wow! ~~~. 👍. New Hampshire

[@DerekConwayTX]

Haha that laugh when the drill bit stuck in the wood is priceless. Been there so many times and all you can do is laugh!

[@jacobwatts1824]

love this part of a build, really starts looking like a house

[@jamesfischer5389]

QUALITY SELLS ITSELF ALL DAY LONG!!! ☮️💜🇺🇸

[@matthewhamlin9872]

Great video. Even though we have seen it before it is always good to keep watching it again for us weekend builders. Repetition is a good way to learn. Thanks for sharing.

[@charlieBhoy72]

It's ridiculous how well Kyle can hammer a nail in with either hand and in a dozen different ways... under, over, to the side, to the other side... i'm not jealous, because i've never known it was possible -- haha, love the videos this is my favourite part the framing just before it gets all covered. Awesome.

[@KITDFOHS]

Just shows how much time he's spent perfecting his craft.

[@thruitallauto2538]

@@KITDFOHSyeah once you do something for awhile it comes natural

[@mclark522]

1:45 When you tighten down the chuck on your bit, twist the chuck just a bit backwards (like you would do to take the bit out) and you’ll feel it click. It stops the chuck from backing off and the drill bit coming out like that. Not all drills do it but a lot do. Neat little trick I found on KZbin a while back. No idea why it’s not well known.

[@RRBuildings]

pretty sure this was debunked and no drill locks when you click reverse one time...I could be wrong but I heard that....I thoughts for sure it locked as well but not sure

[@mclark522]

@ I don’t know, I’ve been using that method in my Dewalt for a while now and haven’t had a problem since but I guess everybody may have a different experience. Latest video I found on it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2K0eYKBe52BhZYsi=ftE5CK31GU0PqqfN

Enjoying this series ! Thanks for posting !

[@freddien7]

You get quite a few mentions from other chanells for How to do woodwork Kyle, so all youre hard work has paid off Respected in the Community.

[@timjohn2810]

So very well done, from a viewer/subscriber perspective, time well spent. Thank you for sharing.

[@ConorMakes]

Warning, this is a safety sally comment, I know I know... Pre start nails to drive cool but where poss drive em in from bottom up. Top down, if you hit a lower nail with your hammer hand you will understand the reason for this post lol. Another good fun video guys love the banter between you both. Take care Conor

[@stuartstephens]

The joys of working outdoors in winter.

[@ronallen6578]

I truly don't miss working in the cold weather

[@PRACTICALBUSHCRAFTSURVIVAL]

Coming on real nicely.

Timber frame porch would be awesome.

[@opendstudio7141]

Perfect day for us retired people to get some worksite time in. 👍

[@BWIL2515]

I'm now convinced you are just as good with either hand driving those spikes y'all call nails Greg is a right for sure I didn't nail very well with my left that's why I always worked left to right thanks again for the video. Also if i had the option I wouldn't conventional frame a house well yeah I would I'd have to many mistakes building like this

[@andrewcarr2431]

it was -27C with the wind today, Atlantic Canada. going to be warmer tomorrow, only -25. still risk of frostbite on exposed areas.

[@caseycowley861]

Good stuff! Btw, we need an intro to the camera person!

[@JoCursWorld]

Can’t do construction anymore so I come here to get my fix. Sure do miss it.

[@Coffeeandbacon287]

You guys should wear a whoop strap and see how many calories a day u burn working out in that cold. Love the channel!

[@krisztianbaranyaii]

Guys, what you do is very good! I would like to know how thick and how wide this wooden structure assembled with nail plate is? Also, what are the distances between the rafters? In our case, these are stacked quite thick, that's why I'm asking, I'm curious about the differences. Thank you in advance for your answers!

[@carlkrewler4084]

Had to put on a blanket to watch this ! LOL

[@jayjones5233]

I’m knot lying….😂

[@Jimmy-rw3pq]

Just curious how you keep from scratching the panels and trim. Been watching pretty much from the start.

[@matteberry58]

Being in Texas I'm super impressed how y'all work so well in the bitter cold. My eyes would water and nose would run nonstop.

No worries Kyle, those Canadians will be using Fahrenheit soon enough. 😉

Hi Kyle! Do you not use the nail gun when you have to drive larger nails or is it a safety thing when up higher? Love the content and depth of detail. Greg is awesome as well!

[@johnscott2076]

Too cold for paslode nailer

[@aaronmdjones]

The portable nailers won't work in that cold weather, and running a compressor and hose is a lot of work when you're working up high.

[@JeffMaynard-qt1zo]

Perkins it 😂

[@Frankreddy62]

I love this build Kyle. It looks awesome. I was watching another channel (kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3SmqmB-p7xkibM) the builder puts his posts right into the ground and the concrete guy has no choice but to pour the floor against the wood posts. I would think the bottom of the post will rot under these conditions. Thoughts ?

maybe a month before we started

HA ! It’s 45 degrees here in Nor Cal ( not So Cal I am a farm boy) and I am thinking I might need long sleeves ? So you think it’s cold there!

With your purlins offset how does that workout with 4ftx8ft sheathing ?

[@BraxxJuventa]

😁👍🏼😁👍🏼

[@comingtofull-ageinchrist6736]

Greg should really watch leaning in behind you when you're swinging your hammer in that opening at the end! About the first time the claw of your hammer connects to the top of his head, he may never be the same after that, Kyle! Go back and watch the last few minutes of the video, right before you raised the lift when you were both in the opening for that door up above! Your hammer claw was within inches of the top of his head! You really shouldn't get too lax when working around one another! That would really be a bad deal!

[@chessiekid4018]

I worked with a master carpenter and he was amazed that I was ambidextrous that I could use either hand when nailing.

[@Noorikon]

👍👌👏

[@jaybird426]

Parts of Canada are -24 today. Thats -11 ish Fahrenheit. They win. Lol that's nipply.

Its payback for not taking him to the concrete show😁

[@Ithinkimaman666]

You may take shots at the Perkins brother (which I know are your friends) but at least they don’t build the same type of building over and over again. They have to get creative with each unique job unlike you being proficient at doing the same thing over and over again.

[@RCMServices]

See you at IBS?

yes

oooo Kyle gets a wee bit crusty in the cold... LOL

I always hated it when the soles of my boots would freeze then it was slick as snot. Good for skating. Cheap Army boots to the lowest bidder didn't help.

You may not have renderings, but if you do, it would be good to throw it up when you're explaining what you're doing. I get the general concept, but it's difficult picturing what you're explaining. Of course I get that editing is extra time. 👊

[@bojangles_bonjangles8000]

Not sure he’s doing his own editing anymore, but I like the idea as well.

[@Rob-r2s]

I remember not that long ago (about a year), that you were bitching and complaining about using that many screws and now you don't care. You use a lot of screws now.
