Building a Barn Using a Kit We Bought Online

[@andrewpinson1268]

As someone even at 72 who still does everything by himself working, I appreciate seeing especially young people who can figure out how to complete jobs pretty much by themselves. Yes Molly helped some, but you did the heavy, high work. And done safely also. Nice big shop.

[@Woodbrew]

Dylan and his dad have been doing it all for sure! I’m wayy to pregnant to be doing this kind of work😂 Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@MicheleWalkerWebb]

Awesome 👍

[@davidmiller6726]

Amen! My sentiments exactly!

[@lauravandien2363]

Young people working with their hands (and family)is a good thing now a days! Keep up the good work.

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you!

[@BreakingBarriers2DIY]

I was reflecting on the advantages of “no snow loads” and when commenting on it my wife crooked her eyebrow and said… The heat is nice…but we also get forecasts that might say “20cm of snow with ZERO chance of alligators “. Snicker. Loving the incredible progress!

[@rogerkiser5890]

I love watching Mr Perfection go from flustered to satisfied when his experiments all work out! Love you both! Keep up the great work! God bless you both.

[@Woodbrew]

You just gotta give him a flustering minute and he’ll come up with something😂

[@AndrewCSmith529]

I enjoy watching your videos and can't wait for the next one. It is so nice to see a young couple building a wonderful life together and involving everything they love to do. I wish you both much success and happiness.

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you Andrew! It’s a struggle at times and we appreciate all the positivity and encouragement we get from y’all. It’s such a blessing we have chasing this dream together✌🏻

[@johnkirby6547]

Nice job Dylan 👏 👍 Excellent photography Molly 👌

[@allenharris2549]

That was not the look of failure. Bravo! Can’t wait to see.

[@alanswift8805]

You two work so well together and you figure out how to get things done. The new shop is looking good.

[@carataylor7681]

Looks nice Dillon!! Great job! You and Molly make a great team.

[@geoffshore4783]

Well done you two. Congrats on the upcoming edition to the family. Glad to see pops joining in as well! Are you going to put a water catchment system on your barn? Be good for free water to top up your pool and reticulate your gardens? Keep up the good work and the dry humour. Love it!

[@FredMcIntyre]

Great progress Y'all! 😃👍🏼👍🏼👊🏼👊🏼

[@davidmiller6726]

I just discovered your channel, and enjoyed this episode! Makes this 68 year old “Hands On” man proud for you, Son! I love following folks who put in honest and hard working efforts, y’all are a nice couple, and have a great life ahead, together! Can’t wait to see more on this barn, I subscribed and turned on notifications! Continue to stay well, and safe while working! Blessings to you both, Dad too for his help!

Shop is looking great keep up the great job. Amazing work Dillon

Taking shape and looking good

Again so great to see how far the two of you have come and thank you for taking us along on the journey -- Proud of both of you, always cheering you on!!

[@suejordan60]

I have so much admiration for you both. You are both obviously devoted to each other. It's nice to see a young couple so competent. Keep your videos coming, I enjoy every one of your episodes. Can't wait to see what you do next.

[@jeffschulteis9168]

Your dad must be proud of the man you have become 😀

[@Woodbrew]

Appreciate that!

[@sstanley777]

I have been watching you for a while and now my husband is hooked too! So great to see your channel growing. Pretty fantastic!

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you!! 😊 It’s been such a blessing in our lives🙏🏼

Love watching and listening to you two! Going to be an AWESOME barn! God bless you 2 and that baby!

[@Woodbrew]

Thank you so much!

[@tonygough8713]

Good job young man. I am enjoying your building videos, thank you. Love your and your wife’s positive attitudes. Stay safe.

[@Woodbrew]

Thanks so much!

[@cognisent_]

I remember back when you got that man lift and it was kind of, "What are we going to use this for?" but holy crap it's been so useful over the years and especially here!

Enjoyed the video. Thanks for sharing

[@Growing-Our-Retirement]

You two are great! Going to be a great building!

[@AlgiereRanch]

That's awesome! We are looking into building a similar one soon!! You guys did great!

[@roadtriplover.]

I want a husband who knows how to do stuff and gets it done. I am so very impressed with you two. Thank you, Jesus, that there are still young adults who are willing to work for what they want and serve as an example for others.

[@markduggan3451]

It's coming along quite well, don't stress.

[@daveallen924]

Looks like a neat project. And it is good to have lift(s) to help with the work. I may be a little late to the game,,, but perhaps you can get those crooked purlins to straighten out by adding a 2x4 down the length of the purlin, forming a Tee. In the meantime, keep on doing good work & work safely!

[@RumMonkeyable]

Necessity is the mother of invention! Great job! 👍👏❤😍🥰✨

Awe appreciate that! ❤️❤️

We finally get to use it for what we bought it for🤣

[@scottmorris4914]

@@Woodbrew I remembered after I posted but for some reason YT would not let me edit the post. Glad it’s working so well. There will be a lot of work for it going forward, lighting, etc.

[@janheenan5587]

Love your videos ,great to see a young couple with such talent ,well done young man ,looking forward to seeing the next one 👏 😊

[@mikeymad]

I would say you were far from sketch - I was just thinking how safe you were vs what I would have done, strapping everything down as you lifted and transitioned. Coming together nicely, and it is going to be big... - cheers.

[@Woodbrew]

Did the best we could! Appreciate it😁

[@stewartwilkinsonsnr]

Wow great progress and mostly on your own with Molly to motivate you. Here in UK we couldn’t get away with what you do, Health & Safety rules, you can build a barn in the time it takes us get on safety gear including a hard hat. Looking forward to next video love to you both ❤️💙 xxxx

[@Woodbrew]

What a shame. It’s wild to me that we live a world where you can be anything you want, but when it comes to your property or well being someone else tells you what you can and can’t do.

[@2dorkstv]

I always look forward to these videos on Mondays. It's cool to see you thinking through everything and going at it very methodically. Inspiring stuff! Keep it up!

[@Woodbrew]

Happy to hear!! And thank you!

[@melindarains3130]

Looking forward to seeing

[@jerryartates2883]

Wow! They are up. Great work!

[@Woodbrew]

Yes!!🤗

[@JustMe-s6s4m]

Molly should sit in a recliner in an air conditioned house and chase you around with the drone to get the video footage. At least until the new shop foreman takes over and starts giving both of you orders.

[@Woodbrew]

Haha she’s far too stubborn to sit in the house. Trying to get her to slow down has been a big challenge😅

[@coltonwilsonmacaroni]

I love this channel so much! They are so entertaining and It is so cool that you two are about to have an amazing, cute, and wonderful baby. I can't wait to see what you two accomplish together again! P.S. I haven't watched your videos in a while so I had to watch all past 3 videos (including this one) back to back and that was the best thing ever! Thanks again, and if you read this far, thanks! I appreciate it, like this comment. 👍

[@coltonwilsonmacaroni]

BTW, who reads these comments? Molly or Dylan?? ...

[@Woodbrew]

The iFixit Minnow kit is only $12.71 right now.... Absolute steal of a deal if you've been thinking about trying out one of their driver sets. That is less than my fast food chicken I ate last night🙄ifix.gd/woodbrew-bts

[@Livthescrewball]

Fr inflation is crazyyyyy but this is such a good deal!!

[@steveadams4009]

I had a friend of mine who lives in Rose Oklahoma by one of those angle iron truss buildings to make a turkey house if I remember correctly it was 40 feet wide and 600 feet long. He bought the building from the company and had them erect it. With the first snowstorm that came through it came crashing down he called me to bring my welder, and come and help him of course I was there the next morning. As we were cleaning up the wreckage we noticed that none of the trusses were bent, but the plates in the middle where the trust halves were bolted together had just been tack welded and never completed.

[@Kkuts37]

Hey Kids! Coming along nicely 🎉. Nice to see your Father (in-law) doing well! 😀

[@Woodbrew]

Yes! Thank you! Things are looking up and hoping to continue to get good news going forward.

[@oriolesfan2463]

I see how you both work together and it reminds me of my first marriage which I ended up royally ruining. To this day it’s the biggest regret of my life. I now live a life of “what could’ve been” through you two. Bless you both!

[@JamesPayne-cb1hu]

I helped a friend put up five gazebo kits. The first one took about six hours. One hundred plus temperatures. The last one took less than one hour. Humans learn fast. Or they don’t learn at all.

Is it my imagination or does Dylan have a Texas drawl when he puts the cowboy hat on?

[@Woodbrew]

Hahah I don’t know what you call it🤣🤣

[@jmalte4702]

You might want to add another 6” (or so depending on grade) height of concrete around the posts so surface water cant easily get to the post, even if they are rot resistant….

[@Woodbrew]

There will be roughly 12” of fill brought in for the slab and the slab footing will be poured all the way down to this concrete so that it will be one.

[@psmoser2274]

What are dimensions of building

[@DLRTraynorCoberly]

I know you’re Florida but it has a Georgia feel to it. I’m Georgia!

[@Woodbrew]

Alabama! 🤣🤗

[@DLRTraynorCoberly]

@@Woodbrew ah! Makes more sense now! I love Alabama! I lived in Daleville, Alabama.

[@RevIlikai]

you needed a pallet on the forks to stand on, so that Molly can lift you up and down to the scissors lift. Of course OSAHA would ask where your safety harness and lanyard are... Ptewy on osha.

[@Woodbrew]

I don’t think the forks reach the platform of the man lift unfortunately 😅

[@RevIlikai]

@@Woodbrew you can always lower the lift enough to hop to the pallet... Kids!!!! Ugh! yes I am old and enjoy your vid alot.

[@Woodbrew]

The whole point of climbing down is because I can’t lower the lift. The truss is strapped to the lift and the truss is on top of the posts. If I could lower the lift then I’d just lower it to the ground.

[@RevIlikai]

@@Woodbrew ahhh ok, somehow I missed that part... fair enough. I stand corrected

[@SterlingMcfadyen-hn9do]

Looks like a lil house

Molly could've parked the tractor near you so you could climb onto it rather than climbing down that TOWER THING

[@Woodbrew]

The man lift is wayyyy higher than the tractor can reach.

I think you should have called in your favor and had Riley come down to help. We know how much he loves roofing. Molly you are quite the trooper out there in the heat in what must feel like your 8th trimester. You deserve all the fried chicken and anything else you might want.

[@kodihull3820]

Just want to know why you guys did 5 trusses not 9 30x40 needs 9 trusses

[@Woodbrew]

30x48 so they are 12ft on center. That’s the luxury of living somewhere where there is no snow load and using engineered metal trusses. I can’t emphasize this enough though, this building has been completely engineered and stamped for 150mph winds. We aren’t willy nilly building out here.
