This is a Disaster!

[@kdegraa]

Could the bracing be replaced with bracing sitting behind the upright posts?

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

ya know...I'm not sure

[@tim_g3478]

My suggestion is to map out your shop on paper into zones. Each zone for a particular purpose ie: where the taller lift is, mechanical repair, another area for specifically for implement storage like sprayers, pressure washers, chain saws. Then determine the workflow you want for efficient use. Do you want shelves, hanging racks, or lofts. When you think in zones, organizing becomes much easier

[@robkika4746]

Do a stone and masonry wall in back of the stove It's beautiful and holds heat

[@JohnDoe-fp8mn]

Exactly my thought, or maybe even decorative brick design. Something to trap the heat and protect the area around the stove.

[@KingsmanFinancial]

Seriously take a look at in home elevators. They’re more economical than you may think. Master Bedrooms are awesome upstairs with a view but as we get older stairs are not our friend. Also you do real work. If you hurt a knee or back you will not be able to get to your bedroom. A buddy of mines Mom put one in their house and it was so cool. Just a suggestion brother!

[@leer-winnobbeefarms2131]

YES! the braces are necessary. They are for wind load and God forbid an earthquake. They keep the building stable. Lee (PS: You are going to have to clean the chimney with a brush. It will be easier if you go thru the roof. With the double wall pipe it would be easier to seal. That how I did the chimney on my outside wood burner - it's in my wood shed, so I don't get wet when it rains. Cleaning the pipe is a breeze.)

[@justinlinnemon6931]

Had an 87' pickup with the 22R that I managed to traverse around the western part of the country back in the day. with 33' tires and 6" lift, it topped out around 60mph on the highway, but it was by far the funnest vehicle I've ever owned. Would love to restore another one on par with the "Yotacorn". Very nice.

[@joegentz4662]

Can't wait for the shop to transform.

[@RichardMixon-m2g]

The flue will need to be "insulated" to prevent condensation inside flue , causing tar buildup if you go too high. Recommend going out of wall at around 14'.

[@ClickinChicken]

Throw the chimney outside the wall as soon as you can after the stove, and use insulated chimney pipe (the silver one). It's safest that way. My .02 cents.

[@BarBeeHoney]

Totally agree

[@troyjones6587]

Wet wood will shrink and create gaps between the boards. I have 12" pine boards for our floors and now there are gaps throughout the house.

[@Clawson_customs]

My shop is a complete mess now. But this next summer I'm going to do the spray foam insulation and try to finish the inside. Then I can put stuff away and organize it

[@markpontes4457]

I wouldn't use double wall pipe except where it goes through the building , you want that heat coming out in the building!

[@edwilliams6256]

I encourage you to put brick down before you set the stove.

[@davidmack8813]

Love direction you're taking super stoked about stocking lunber up cureing and seasoning to slow/stop checking *awesome *

[@jessecorn3256]

Id honestly say Josh if you can condense your tools to one area and keep the motorized stuff where its easily accessible, then the storage can be used more for stuff that you maybe use once or twice a year. I know how it goes though, once you build a shop, is it really ever big enough.? I agree with the zone idea. Just do one zone at a time and that way you stay organized.

[@billwilliams9527]

Cabinets on wheels just in case you need to move them around. You are gonna nee all the storage space you can find. I would run the stove exhaust out through the wall, just my opinion, I'm by no means an expert.

[@BarBeeHoney]

That’s best

[@a-survivors-journey]

How long are you letting your new lumber (from the mill) dry? Plan, plan and review, then replan. Get a drawing of the wood structure. A drawing plan of the whole 1st floor shop, kitchen, tools, and equipment!!! You’ve got a job!!! Reach out to the bldg manufacturer!

[@mikemiraglia7469]

The mezzanine sounds perfect size. I think you need to kinda do a rough drawing and plan on some paper for the tool and workbench area and I would agree with you with taking the smokestack out the side wall and not the roof. Look forward to seeing the build out .. stay warm and safe in the storm. We’re supposed to get a mess up here in Virginia Beach.

[@jeffeubanks370]

Man alive!! You have a year or 2 of content. Hope it turns out just like you want it!!!

[@stircrazyone7929]

You have a lot of toys.....I'm a little jealous!

[@toddpacheco4748]

Josh,take your time and maybe 🤔 a little bit of variety in doing your tool storage area 👍another excellent video 😮😊❤

[@philwhite5815]

First off first things first, if you don't have all your electrical and plumbing ran, run that first and then spray foam insulation. It's a little more expensive but it's the best stuff, especially in a metal building trying to seal up all the nooks and crannies

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

I hear you...getting that electrical and plumbing in place should be a priority!

[@philwhite5815]

@StoneyRidgeFarmer for your little inside storage, are you going to do wood or like a metal grate type?

[@Telluridepilot]

The braces square the building up and keep it in square.

[@danielalamo2075]

Keep as much stovepipe inside as possible. Whether you exit the pipe through the roof or wall, there's always a chance of a leak. A heavy-duty wood workbench along a wall is nice. And old hand tools hanging on a backing looks cool and rustic. A large heavy metal shop table is also handy for welding and mechanical projects. Mechanic tools should be in a rolling toolbox. I got one that was too small, now I have 3. I also find it handy to have tool bags and buckets for field repairs. Make sure to plumb your shop with plenty of air fittings and some for outside. I'm always stringing air hoses to fill tires or run air tools outside. And don't forget electrical outlets including 220 plugs for a (stick) welder. Wire feed welders do not work well if there's a breeze, unless you have flux core wire. I prefer stick for my larger farm repairs. Check out Austin Ross for welding videos. He has an awesome channel. Also, look online for shop setup and layout. See what others do before you commit. As for lifts, I would really like a 2 post lift. If you have to work on brakes and suspension you are free to do so easily. A 2 post lift lifts a vehicle from the frame. With a 4 post lift you can't because the vehicle is still on it's wheels.

[@kspdt]

Easier to sweep a straight chimney than one with a 45 angle.

[@ClickinChicken]

You have WAY too many Irons in the fire! Josh laugh! No judge zone! At least you have 'New junk', I have Old Junk! Wooo!!

[@leokelly359]

you need a storage barn for all your stuff😆

[@bruceflynn9711]

The bracing is for shear wall . When you shook it the roof also rattled. It’s one continuous shear wall and roof. Do not disturb it. Agreed that the higher you go the more heat you get from the pipe. Just remember when this when you have to clean the pipe out from soot

[@Timwanttobefarmer]

What did you use for insulation I need to insulate my building

[@StoneyRidgeFarmer]

commercial building batt insulation. It's between the metal outside and the frame though. I've seen and heard great things about closed foam spray insulation

[@AV8T0R401]

Be careful with spray foam. I've been hearing that in some areas, insurance companies and mortgage lenders are refusing to insure buildings with spray foam

[@ronevans852]

It’s there for a reason don’t touch it. I had a shop something like yours just wasn’t that big .and it had rods like that this was back in the 70th. One of the guys told me about the rods. Don’t touch.

[@kdegraa]

What happens if the rods are removed? Could the be replaced with bracing that does not in front of the posts?

[@oklahomachris6298]

I’m with you on no holes in the roof. I’d go out the wall to I think with a small 90 degree pipe and rain guard

[@russellhazzard6936]

Okay the cables are needed , we learned that today...now get a second set. Weld tabs/brackets for the second set of cable behind the posts , drill holes for the new cable through your gert use garden hose to prevent banging noise, and turn buckles to tighten the cables...remove the old set....should work.

[@Scott_Atlanta]

You’ve already overpromised your shop space. Time for an addition off the back.

[@farmerdan6893]

In NY we use single wall inside and transition to double wall at the wall thimble. That's gonna be alot of pipe to get it above the roof line in that spot

[@Prescott-hockey8]

The rods are necessary for keeping the building square and to keep it from being damaged by the wind. If you go through the wall at like one guy said then you can clean the chimney from outside the building through the t that should be outside and not an elbow. Take the bottom cap off and run the brush up. Use french brackets much stronger than pegboard. Just my thoughts (and wishes if I had that beautiful building. Ps: plan out the building and put tape on the floor. I bet you will move the tape many times before you know for sure what you want.

[@davidmc8110]

I would... 😏 You did ask for ideas/advice, come out of the stove with regular stove piping until you got up closer to the exit point. Being that you have a catalyst, creosote shouldn't be a problem in a chimney that dissipates more heat. The double-wall will be good to retain more heat as it goes through the wall and outside. If you don't have an adaptor that goes from the stove to inside the chimney pipe, then I would use chimney pipe cement or refractory cement where the pipe goes into the stove. Run the chimney hot for a couple hours every few days/week to keep the chimney clean. I would go through the wall, and then use an H-pipe at the top for venting the smoke.

[@kspdt]

If the stove is under the mezzanine that will trap some heat from the stove. Put a directional fan under the mezzanine to blow out and down into your shop. With that high of ceiling, you may need ceiling fans as well.

[@charleswise5570]

Josh, get one or two peg boards, for all of the screw drivers, hammers, ect... All of the most handy tools you'll grab. Get a nice tool chest the rest of your tools will go in. Save your toolboxes for when you need to grab n' go.

[@jeffkillian6055]

Josh, Definitely a huge project. I would agree with taking the stove pipe through the wall, then you can put a clean out at the 90 outdoors. I know you want the metal roofing behind the stove, but my opinion would be masonry. Heat will penetrate thin metal faster, also masonry will radiate the heat. Just my two cents.

[@5150Lane]

I look forward to you building out your Barndo as I am considering something similar but on a smaller scale.

[@stephenwright4404]

I have a large tool chest for all the hand tools, socket, pliers, impact wrenches, screwdrivers, ect.. I use a small tool cart to gather what I need to do the job, then everything goes back where it belongs.

[@fricknjeep]

hi there nice show ,best to all john

[@kevindavis3841]

Chuck over at sheraton farms just changed out the wood on his wall behind the stove. He has an old 4' saw blade in between. Looks pretty cool...

[@chrissheathewoodguy]

i build solid walls first. i've done metal up 4ft with a trim board. then a nice 3/4 wall board above.. studs on 12 inches centers. that leaves you lots of options for wall units extra. metal peg board between the upper cabinets and work bench. you can run fir strips to hold the peg board out. you want the wall to be solid and simple. benchs and wall units often change over time. you will most likely get sponcers whom would love to help you set up the shop. so leave the slate solid and simple. good luck.

[@allenburns3177]

Shelving takes up a lot of room. I like to use shelving on wheels so you can put the shelving right next to each other thus eliminating the aisle in between each shelving unit. Then I can just pull out the shelving units to get what I need. The wire shelving units are strong and if you are in need of really heavy wheels I make a steel dolly for it.

[@davidmack8813]

Loved Kuma woodstove ❤

[@farmerdan6893]

Organize ,organize ,organize then plan. That way you're not making a hanger for a dozen cordless tools then later you find 2 more. Ask me how I know. Mine looks a little jenky now after all the additions 😊

[@Led420canadian]

Very nice stove!

[@Sgtkode]

I would buy or build a workbenches with lots of shelves or drawers. Storage is most important. If someone comes in your shop they should not be able to place hands on your tools. My favorite thing was a charging board for Battery tools. I always had charged up battery's for my drills and saws. Conex boxes are cheap and are great for storage instead of an expensive mega barn.

[@jessecorn3256]

steel peg board on the upper side and the roll in cabinets underneath would work well. The other peg board eventually falls apart.

[@lynnplestid2711]

Remember if you go thru the wall for the pipe is you create a bent ( a chock point ) causing a point for buildup. Myself go thru the roof ( no bends ) 🇨🇦👍

[@Will7981]

I’ve got no advice for you. I think what you are doing is epic and about as cool as it gets. Your barndominium I predict will be,👌🏻.

[@jakesinner9222]

Josh.....double layer 5/8's drywall behind the stove. PLEASE!!!

[@robertsmith7580]

Going straight up with your pipe creates the best draw , two 90 degree elbows is going to disrupt your stove proformance

[@blakeh6062]

You need to put tool boxes in the front right corner main stage to take videos in the back right corner then a big box where your saying tool crib multiple tool boxes helps in a big shop but organized

[@davidmack8813]

Tractor run in: 6 stall roof & 3 side shed gravel floor. Wire fencing outside stuff you may use given to you un 8x40 container, ; 4 whèelers in covered shed out of shop its stuffed you need room to build.; Set up lift if its in big shop have organizer come organize you shop. Tgi web for decking glue web beam for girder. Build deck sheet it with 5/4" osb plywood put 3 coats of water base poly sealer start assembly place main beam girder and baring post on house structure get in up there get 2/3 to 3/4 stuff out of shop until you're finished Josh too congested to work its cant see the forest for the trees too busy to see or do project so set up to unclutter . Start in and build home or home office get baring beams put hangers on it to put floor joist put a few on a week start getting boards up in the air worry about floor decking later or just at landing top of stairs main house get er done but way too much in the way run electric tender power for side by sides & 4 wheelers etc. But out of shop as it is its too much to build long term projects like whillys under plastic under canvas with moth balls it takes critical room if your not doing something with it for 1/2 year get it out of your shop later bring in back inside museum display exception cureing wood seasoning for moisture large timbers decking stairs joist handrails get it in dunnage and on flat floors with fans to dry big wood slowly so it doesn't check to death splitting. Slow dry appearance grade large wood and beams etc. Let debth of personal space be yours suggest dont show it or in background or cursory show framing but dont publicize your interior of home privacy security. So you'll not have people going into your home. I ran large estates of public people private areas remain private perhaps small short cabinetry or plumbing but keep people from knowing your homes lay out understanding entry or security of doors & camera. Safety and not giving entry information. Public & private once beams post and joist flooring go up need to know friends or professional people who work on home. Once you're done intensive camera prep or projects but focus outward not intrusive. Suggestion

[@Ky-iz8py]

Usually when neighbors start offering free stuff is cause they're getting ready to ask you to come do free skid steer work at their property 😂

[@smithfamilypastures]

Definitely no not remove the diagonal braces. If you absolutely want them out of that bay You could possibly add braces in a different bay on the same wall but you should talk with an engineer with the building company to make sure the load transfers correctly. In my shop I used triple wall pipe through the wall. Came out of the stove with about 2’ of black stove pipe, 90° over into the wall into the triple wall. Unless you really have the stove cranking and the flue damper all the way open your stove pipe should not get very hot. Especially triple wall pipe so I would not be concerned about trying to capture that heat. I did not like the idea of punching a big hole in my new metal roof either. Pour you a pad near where your flue runs up your wall or out your roof so you can use your scissor lift to clean and maintain it. Something I wish I would have done.

[@gunggerdin1]

You need a lot of table top, with all the gear you have you need racking and shadow boards on the wall.

[@AV8T0R401]

You didn't say where the still is going! You ain't a good ole boy without shine!! 😊

[@theda850two]

Stove pipe goes through the roof, you don't ever want horizontal stove piping if you can avoid it, It will collect ash over time then the pipes must be taken apart/taken down to clean,, Also, the top of the pipe where it exits the building whether it's outside the sidewall or through the roof, must go above the roof line/peak a bit for proper draft..

[@no-uf1gm]

run pipe through the wall not the roof don't use insulated pipe in side till you get close to going through the wall you will get more heat out of pipe

Yes mistake don't use wet wood it's gonna set you up for failure use whatever tool storage works for you do you want to have boxes and bench or on the wall and bench do you want a welding area im guessing you want all of that so I would do more research it dosent sound like a good flowing shop the way you put it maybe watch more KZbin and get more ideas
