Shelter from the Storm - Timber Frame Barn

[@pafurnace]

I just finished watching all 84 videos of your barn journey. Took me a couple of weeks, but I got 'er done. I had to persevere through them all because that's what you were doing. I'm not typically very patient. But you've helped me see the value of the slow and steady trek toward a valuable goal. Thanks for bringing me along. It was worth the effort. And congratulations on a job very well done.

Wyoming truly is God's country, beautiful film!

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Thanks Tom

[@carolcarola9719]

Your part of the country is splendid.

A shovel hanging outside your barn would be handy when you arrive so you can clear away some snow before entering. Maybe some kind of simple mount for it on the wall next to the door ? Love that snowy, brisk and refreshing weather. And the cosy stove inside. Lovely :-)

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Thanks John for the idea

Hi Tim I really like the Short Winter Film, take care in the bad weather

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Thanks Doug!

[@skyrocketcoast219]

Absolutely wonderful!

[@solvang1987]

Very inspiring series. Helped me decide to try a very similar build myself. Currently still making the concrete foundation and milling the timber. Would love to see a video where you talked about the current state of the barn and if you would have anything different should you build it again. Truly enjoyed your videos Best regards Lasse

That was great! It was just what I pictured it would be after the barn was finished. Can’t wait for more.

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Hey Will

[@ssx2channel977]

Nice video and glad it slowed down for you. The wind is still howling here 55 mph.💚💜👏

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

That is just a normal day out there!

[@lyndamcardle4123]

Reminds me of the Rod Stewart song "Mandolin Wind" from 1971..... "oh the snow fell, without a break....buffalo died in the frozen fields you know"....through the coldest winter in almost 14 years..." Keep warm sir !

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Thanks Lynda

[@hiromi991]

Thank you! Sounds like summer!

[@angelamaro1693]

Beautiful video. You must have an excellent camera.

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

I do!

[@pauletterichards4755]

That wind is really blowing

[@mikemcgrath7280]

Man alive Tim that storm hit hard. Even though this video did not consist of building, I believe this was one of your best it speaks to the heart soothing and you did well.. the music once again is??? Thanks👍

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

It is studio stuff from epedemic sound. Thanks for the kind words Mike

[@jimlong527]

@@GreatPlainsCraftsman My wife and I just changed a leaking hose on our outdoor wood boiler. I should have filmed that. :)

[@JP-ir2eq]

I was waiting for Joe Pera to give some context to this. Nice barn.

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Thank you

[@karenjones8354]

What if you put battens on the inside too? Love the videos!

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Thanks!

[@scruffy6151]

Thank you.

[@ironcladranchandforge7292]

Beautiful landscape!! So I tried an experiment in my shop a couple of days ago. The overnight temperature was -5 F and then it "warmed" up to +20 F during the day. The wood stove in the shop wasn't keeping up. However, the wood stove in combination with the gas forge warmed up the shop nicely, around 60 F. Perfect temp for working. I'm thinking of replacing the wood stove in the future. Did your wood stove heat the barn enough for you?

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Yes it did, not to slipper weather but good for working!

[@ironcladranchandforge7292]

@@GreatPlainsCraftsman -- Excellent !! I did notice that when I turned off the gas forge it cooled off quickly. However, it seemed to hover around 50 F for some time, which is good enough for me. Next, I'll see what the coal forge does.......

[@deanmacka4975]

Great stuff mate gotta love that green machine. I've got a red one ,so it's faster than yours lol

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Haha thanks Dean!

[@dougmcnattin386]

Nice video. I wish more people put as much into theirs as you do. Not all that much explanation, but then its not really needed as your videos show. Thanks.

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Thanks Doug!

[@SBChevy]

Where is the percolating coffee pot that sits on top of the stove? I use mine all of the time when it's cold outside. To me, it's better than the drip brew pots. Could this be because I'm in my dinky "man cave", working on my projects or is it because it actually brews a better pot of coffee??

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

No you're right it is. I have one, will break it out next time

[@MrGeroth]

Awesome, maybe plant some bushes, about 3-4 feet tall and they will stop the snow drifts. Their natural so they won’t look bad.

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

Thanks Gerald!

[@TonyT-lo2sz]

How was the horse doing with the cold?

[@GreatPlainsCraftsman]

He was just fine!
