I have to say, the editing of your videos is very on point. Some construction/DIT channels will show every single cut, which is unnecessary. And others will skip too much leaving you scratching your head. In this video, for example, you talked about cutting a birds mount. You gave a quick example on how you created the template, then showed a couple boards that you had already cut one side with the circular saw and then quickly showed those last two cuts. Gives the viewer everything needed with no redundant footage. Great production value!!!

A choker around the beam would have alleviated the need to adjust the rigging. Would also negate the chain all together. (I am a qualified rigging supervisor onboard ships, but have never stayed at a Holiday Inn.) I do appreciate the video showing how you did it. I would have never thought to punch a hole through the rafter to run a long bolt through for a pick point. Going to file that one away for later. Thanks!

As of today, 11/29/23, I’ve watched all the dream garage build videos (and of course liking each). Wanting more, I went back and started watching all your videos from the beginning, and it’s been really fun watching your transformation from a stiff but knowledgeable and detailed explainer of what you were working on, to the more comfortable and easy going explainer with more humor injected here and there (I loved the explanation a few videos ago about why you have to turn off the landscaping sprinklers after spraying doors; I sent that to my dad, a retired paint contractor, to have a laugh), to the experienced entertainer we watch on the garage videos now. And it was only a couple of episodes before this that you started the tradition of describing fun project related ways to smash that like button! Just thought I’d drop Y’all a line to say how much fun it’s been to watch your videos. They’ve become a staple (and perhaps even a bit of a palm nailer when I need that little extra to finish that final lift) for my my morning workouts!

You could build a temporary A-Frame out of the temporary wall studs you just removed on each end of the new beam and lift each end with separate hoists. There's no need to anchor it from the rafters. You could hold the weight on the existing walls/ceiling or build your own supports that reach the floor. You could also just use the one hoist and lift one end at a time partway up and then reposition. Takes time but easy enough.

For your larger laminated beam lift, install two vertical 14' guide studs at each end of the span so that the laminated beam stays in the strong axis between the guide studs ( one guide stud on each side of your sole and top plates) . Install a eye hook on the top of the the guide studs and on top of the laminated beam. use your come-along to crank it up. You know a " stud pack lift"

@madsandretans54433 жыл бұрын
Not a native english speaker, but.. Lifting the new beam could be as easy as two temporary beams on top of a few of the cut, yet supported ends. One a bit higher, the other closer to the end. Add the winch in the mix on the top temp one, add another pulley on the bottom one and let the cable pass through it before tying to the beam you're lifting. Cable goes horizontal for a couple feet, beam still goes vertical. It'll have a tad more resistance as its fighting friction against the temp supports, but its negliable as long as the angle isnt really bad for the lower pulley.

Y’all always make it look easy. About lifting the second beam - could you build some sort of a lift point above the temp walls? You know, since you cant get all the way to the top of the existing roof line, maybe you could build the temp walls a bit taller or have a part of it that is taller so you would have a place to hook the hoist. This may be a dumb idea but since I can’t see everything going on it’s hard to say for sure but it seems that some sort of cradle above the temp walls would work. Any Hoo, thanks again for the videos.
@johnmactaggart17573 жыл бұрын
Just make an A frame off the stud wall going into the roof space with a stud to stop the lateral movement. Doubled up 4x2s should easily hold 300lb when the legs are angled to 35 degrees or so. Then you can attach the joist onto the horizontal part of the A. You may have already done the install by now, but if not I hope this helps.

I would build a ladder rack. Studs on either side figure weight to know how many, braces on top and bottom, secure it to the rafters so it doesnt fall. Position it so beam can be raised as its sliding up "ladder" . If you have the room have it straddle the beam ,brace it all weight is down force. You have plenty of used lumber and can easily assemble and disassemble it. You should have a t.v. show
