Looks like Wales is going to get a new Cathedral let alone a barn, an absolutely fantastic build. 👍🤗

Haha, I thought something similar when I saw the size and the bracing.

I’m 80, and can no longer do your type of construction because of health issues, but just watching you is so satisfying and enjoyable.

I am 51 and feel in the same position, I fell off a horse 11 years ago and am lucky to be alive, so thankful for that, but oh how I would love to have a go at a few projects.

I'm 37 and after moving the larch trees in episode 20 earth bag, I can no longer bring my self to lift heavy wood anymore. Hats off to Kris for always delivering

[@emmaslow]

I can't quite believe that all these years later, after watching the first bit of cob on the roundhouse, that you are not just still making videos, but that they get progressively more complex and ambitious, made possible by the experiences and skills learning that we've witnessed with our own eyes. If ever anyone wonders what they might be able to learn, and do, they just need to watch your channel from day one. Your growth is so inspiring to me precisely because it feels like such an achievable human experience - for me your channel is a showcase for achieving progress through consistent action and embracing mistakes. Such a privilege that you've shared it all with us, and offer such a solid example of what's possible. Cheers, Kris.

[@duffman825]

This will be your most impressive structure yet. Well done 👍

[@Lemma01]

Well, it's definitely bigger than the Round House. And the toilet/woodstore, and the old workshop, and the new workshop, (both floors) and the.... yep - I think you might be onto something...

[@Crewsy]

Will be? I think it already is.

[@brownwarrior6867]

Superb effort all round Kris. Please watch your back when shifting those beams at ground level mate all it takes is one bad lift and your build will grind to a halt. Use mechanical assistance wherever possible even if it means an extra 20 minutes here and there.

[@ingridbrowne6083]

The greenhouse is still a work of art!

This construction really highlights the brilliance of Howard and his crew and the way they have cut such wonderful joints into so many timbers from plan.

[@davidbailie8800]

Hi kris. I have been working in the building and joinery work for many years, now retired I’m missing the joinery but watching you build the new barn is very therapeutic. In my mind you're a skilled young man and while you’re working on the barn your partner (Dot) is feeding the animals you both are a great inspiration. I love watching your videos so no matter what you’re doing just keep them coming. Keep well and safe. Regards David.

[@davidkettell5726]

This is just amazing . Two men in the usual lousy British weather constructing a barn that will most likely be standing 400 years from now. Mt hat is off to you Kris. If i was not 70 and left that crappy weather behind over 40 years ago i would be honored to come and help. P.S. THE OLD TIMERS WOULD HAVE GIVEN THEIR RIGHT ARM FOR JOIST HANGERS . AS YOU SAID EVERY PIECE YOU TAKE OUT OF A BEAM WEAKENS IT ,I HAVE SPENT YEARS REINFORCING MY HOUSE FLOORS BECAUSE OF 150 YEAR OLD BUILDING TECHNIQUES.

[@1943L]

That structure will be around longer than any of us. Great project Kris.

[@Liamthepilot]

Chris, firstly a huge well done. Ive been following you for years now. This is absolutely amazing what you've achieved!! Keep going buddy

[@Chester1975]

You don’t do things by half measures do you, I have to say everything you do is mighty bloody impressive. Top work 👍

[@kacii6598]

Loving every minute of this build. It is looking beautiful Kris. Shout out to Sam and Ben for their help...glad you have good people around willing to help with the build. Can't wait to see next week's video :)

[@juliebarrett1422]

Ben is my youngest son so proud mum here . Such a great experience for him working with Kris

I'm amazed by this project. So much forethought went into the design. Incredible work

Excellent progress!

Ahh. Chris, its looking great! Bigger than I imagined! What a masterpiece.

[@idablythe4847]

My dad put up his first pole barn 40x80. I was born 1950 I was 4-5 years old. It stayed up till 2008. We used as dairy barm calf pens overhead bean storage and milking stalls. Later he added a lean to to one side and that held milk cows in winter. Plus we added 2 more large pole barns on 160 acres dairy farm. We used center to store tractors and hay. Never forget my dad climbing to top of barn in his 70’s like a monkey. Great looking barn. ❤❤❤

[@jamesbaconreid]

Been here since the beginning, love what you’re doing. Hope all is well.

[@ingridbrowne6083]

Thank you for going back to 'your' way of doing things. You have nice friends that are helping you. I have a huge interest in what you are doing but due to a few shitty life things and a horrible accident I will never be able to do it for myself. Keep posting as much as you can manage, everything, animals, fencing, repairs, maintenance, I can't get enough. Thank you again.

[@hawkmoon1704]

Awesome. Absolutely addicted to this project.

[@vesturedippedinblood4450]

I know nothing about building with wood but you clearly have a good grasp on all things woodworking

[@sonicclang]

Kris, I haven't been commenting a lot recently, but I've been watching all the videos for this barn build. What an incredibly time consuming process! I was fastinated by the joinery videos with the guys you hired. I've always fancied myself a wood worker, but all that timber framed joinery is a whole new level. And like you said, watching the pieces go up is quite different from seeing them laying down in the barn. It's going to be an incredible building, and I can't wait to see more!

I love seeing this barn go up! Every 30 min episode feels like 10 minutes and I need more, I'm barn addicted now 😆 Keep the good work up, the barn its amazing!

[@markrainford1219]

You're barny barmy.

[@Strange-Viking]

Cant believe how far you have come, been following you since you put out your first couple of vids quite a few years back. Man things are rocking!

I take great pleasure in seeing your very fine work. So well and very skilfully done, it will surely be a great pleasure for both of you.

[@CrazedCrittic]

Am I the only one watching this and saying "Wow" over and over again as more parts of the frame are assembled?! Amazing project and skill set.

[@EddieEggman]

Such a privilege to witness this all the way from the idea to implementation! Would love to see a cost breakdown in the future, keep up the great work! Already looking forward to next week's video 🙏

[@daverichardson5861]

Absolutely brilliant Kris, it looks astounding, wow. All that planning/work etc is paying off. Really good lifting techniques. Well done and stay well.

[@jmazoso]

Nothing quite like the feeling of looking at something and thinking "I have done a thing!!!!" Well done Chris and Ben.

[@erichagler7842]

Kris ... it shows how much time you had to put into this build to have things go together as smooth as they are. props to you for your hard work up front and it is paying off for you in the long run .... great job, can't wait to see it completed.

[@danielarmes707]

Half of me is gutted you haven't morticed those floor joists in, the other half knows the pain. Great work, great videos. Keep slogging!

I was wondering how the barn build was coming on, fascinating to watch the journey. Nice one Lads👍

[@matthewgordon-clark2392]

Kris, you and all your helpers should have a bloody good barn raising party when you are done! IIn 50 years you will be able to look at it and say "I built that". Bloody well done!

Beautiful Kris. The accuracy of the manufacturing of components is so rewarded in the final assembly. The building site looks like it would 500 years ago minus the tractor and the Land Rover. Kind regards from Pete. Australia.

It's starting to look like a barn. Once everything is put together it's going to be a grand sight to behold.

[@bootsnframes7626]

My brother and I just finished raising my timber frame. You are correct, it appears so much bigger standing than when it's being cut or fitted on the ground. This will give you a sense of satisfaction every time you step in the building.

[@freeform33]

This type of building structure was developed over centuries to be able to be erected without the use of a crane.You have shown us just how it can be done with minimal fuss and maximum exertion.Great job and be safe 👍

[@pch0581]

It was time for this structure; as you said in an earlier video (planning) you needed somewhere to house the Landy, van, tractor & other machines as well as having somewhere for the lambing, hay etc. When plan A 'fell over' plan B has given us -- your followers -- some interesting footage to enjoy. Two guys building a monster barn! Impressive! Thanks again Kris for sharing your efforts.

[@CatsSleepyHollow]

That winch is awesome! I have huge issues getting my oversize power poles in the ground, but I doubt I can build something that cool!

[@codyleeser392]

The beauty of this building just amazes me. Thank you for filming the raising.

[@washibonsai5307]

Hi Kris. It is a great example of how media technology can warp reality. We see the work of days/weeks in just a few minutes and the impression is that it is easy to do so. Only when someone did such work himself the dimensions become clear and the weight of your challenges. My deepest sympathies and greetings from Dubai. Martin

[@gordonclark7632]

I have waited all week for this episode. I sit here in awe watching the work being done and how natural timber is formed to fit so perfectly. The other thing that really makes me think of your ability is the machines you build to enable you to put the barn together. Ah well I have to wait another week for the episode.

[@TR-rz1xt]

Fantastic progress Kris - is a joy to see it coming along. Pragmatism wins the day in respect of the joist hangers, definitely the best decision under the circumstances. All the best 😎👍👌

[@wayneraspberry4111]

Good steady progress Kris, well worth the effort creating something that makes you smile for years to come and the hard work has faded although rembered but more importantly, satisfying. 👍😎☮️

[@5jkratz]

Kris, Your work is impeccable. The time-honored ways of doing things are extremely gratifying from this end and am sure it is the same on your end. Thank you for choosing to do the entire job of creating, milling, carpentry with the crew you worked with in creating the truss assembly, and now the assembly on site. Saving money on all aspects of your dream makes things possible without draining the entire bank account. Your reward will stand as a hallmark to your skills and love of the "old ways".

[@colinham9148]

Kris I think it was a wise idea with the metal braces for the floor, giving the whole structure a little more rigidity. I am sure this is going to be another fantastic structure on your small holding. I can't wait till you build your new house on site in the near future. Keep up the good work and please stay safe guys.

[@william6526]

This is amazing and the barn is going to be a work of art. You are a blessed man to have friends that are willing to help you build this barn. Friends like these men are rare and you should plan on doing something special for them to show your appreciation. When this barn is finished you really need to have the news outlets come and do a story or program showing just how amazing a structure this is and have all the people involved be there for the recognition they all deserve.

[@Utahdropout]

You are right....!! It is a beast...! A very beautiful beast. You have done such an outstanding job getting this thing build. What a great asset to you operation it is going to be. Good on ya Kris....!

You continue to amaze me Kris. That barn is going to be just incredible when it's done, and true work of handcrafted art and I hope you are as proud of yourself as I, a complete stranger, are of you. Keep up the brilliant work!!

[@monoshock57]

A simple thumbs up is not enough for how this is turning out. I'll say it again, I'm glade you are doing this your self instead of having "pros" doing it with a crane.

may i say i find this approach infinitely more interesting than the other videos where you had a crew running a production line in a barn

To be honest I agree, but these episodes and the extremely satisfying way in which this structure is being erected would not be possible without that production line.
