Tiny House Build CONTINUES! - We Made Some HUGE Mistakes 😭 Building Our Floors, Walls & Roof! (Ep 3)

agreed!! So fun to watch

[@Theendlessadventure]

Thank you!! It's been a wild ride, but we're loving the challenge 🪚🔨

[@jdlestero]

Horizontal is "level", vertical is "plumb".

[@sarah-phillips]

Yay! Can’t wait to watch! You guys impress us so much by your willingness to just jump in. And, admittedly, your jokes and shenanigans amuse us, too.

[@sarah-phillips]

The roof turned out so great! I'm so dang impressed. We got a Little Giant Ladder at Costco and it's been awesome for us. Nice and sturdy. Also, Tom Silva from This Old House would have been very happy about you using a template. Nice!

[@Theendlessadventure]

We're finding that pretty much everything in a house has a name or function worthy of an inappropriate jokes 🤣 And omg, a sturdy ladder is something we'll never take for granted again! 100% worth the investment 🪜

[@LyleFrancisDelp]

I love the banter between you two. You really love each other. It reminds me of my own youth. We've been married 41 years now. Watching you makes me smile.

[@Theendlessadventure]

Glad to hear you're still going strong 41 years in!

[@heathwatson1185]

Floor looks great, however; you may want to consider the underneath spray insulated as it will help keep the house cooler and less humid in the summer.

[@azstargazer912]

Don't read to much into this because the last time I built anything, it was a birdhouse 50+ years ago, but I think you guys are doing an amazing job!! It's fun to watch, too!

[@Theendlessadventure]

Thanks!! And maybe birdhouses should be our next project...houses are hard 😅

[@karinpople1019]

Just wondering, will you require building permits in your county? Looks great so far. I’m enjoying watching this series

[@sheenaproffitt-taber630]

Texas has pretty liberal building laws. Cities do have more restrictions, but I think they are in the county.

I usually see your videos the day they are posted.

[@flyinggyros9745]

You’re making good progress. You’re building a house, buy a new ladder.

[@lynnparsons5816]

I'm so nervous for you! Please tell us this has been permitted and inspected? It would be so sad if had to be taken down. It looks wonderful! You guys are so handy!!!

[@debscoular6919]

I think that's why they are sticking with the square footage that they are, because there isn't a permit required for building a tiny home... At least that's what I've been told from other tiny home builder videos that I've watched. I could be wrong, it's happened before lol

[@marieneu264]

It probably hasn’t, then they’ll name a sad video just like they did every other video with the RV. They love torturing themselves for content instead of just doing things the right way.

[@davidschiller288]

You need blocking between every stud and a 45 degree brace in every wall or plywood sheeting to keep every stud wall square. You should be reinforcing every wall before installing rafters. Top plates should be connected to keep walls plumb

Looks Great you two. I love the zip system.

Are you sure that extension ladder can't be turned around? It looks backwards.

I am happy you have the hangers in. Your forecast of hurricane 🌀 wind is the very reason your putting them in. Hurricane hangers!

[@cspvideo]

I don’t know building codes in the area where you are working. This is a tip for your future when you put up drywall. On the ceilings do not have 4 corners of sheetrock meet. Stagger your layout. In some areas, that is part of the code to pass inspection. However, regardless of codes, it's a good idea so that shifting doesn't crack your ceiling. Applause for taking it on.

[@haitaoli6723]

Do you experience any crack on 4 corners of Sheetrock meet?

If you're really worried about hurricanes, you might want to invest in actual hurricane ties/straps. They're little metal strips that go from one section of the framing to the next (i.e. floor tied to the walls that are then tied to the roof.

Fun vlog. Hope you have treated the wood for termites.. you don't want it eaten away in a few years! Those sloped beams should rest on something, not just be attached on the side of the vertical beams. They have to carry the roof. Ps. Maybe add Simpson hurricane clips to your roof beams.

So watching this one today I'm thinking how cool and competent the two of you are, as I often do. Then my next thought is, it's awesome, and fortunate, that you two have the confidence that you won't get hurt out in, what seems a bit like, the middle of nowhere in case one of you falls or gets hurt. It occured to me, thinking about falling off of one of the ladders, right before the part where Allison says, "tell them what happened..." Hope your ankle is fine again, Eric. Then a bit later talking about being up on the narrow wood, falling to possible death. Be careful guys. 💕 Loving the adventure, as always! Great job! Looking forward to seeing you in the next one.
