I used someone else’s but increased the size of steel a little. I like the “over do it” when it doesn’t cost a fortune. But almost any structural engineering company can or will point you to who can. Thanks for checking out the channel.

Anode rod. It’s the rod that extends into the tank to help prevent corrosion. If you have just a plug it might have been replace with a plug only. It is usually make of zinc or magnesium and it will deteriorate over time. They’re fairly inexpensive on Amazon. I’ve bought them at local hardware and cut them for rv. Home heaters have the same rod, and with a water softener can cause a smell like rotten eggs. I’m not an expert on it. I hope it helps. RV stuff seems to keep a person busy.

Really cool

Yes they are!

Thanks. Seems like stink bugs are our state bird.

Sure we could have used beams. But it was about the looks, and hvac. It’ll make a little more sense when we post the finish living space. The spiral exposed hvac duct work vents through the trusses. Thanks for checking it out.

You are welcome

Thanks. Been good so far, but if I have more trouble I’ll check it out! Thanks again

Walking the mile!

Thanks man, transparency Daph had been doing all our editing, and that was my first shot on my own. It was hard to watch her watch it! Thanks for the encouragement and taking the time to point a guy in the right direction. We’ll see if the one I’m editing today is an improvement. Thanks again

@@featuredelements4631 Ah, it's definitely better than most people's first edits. You're welcome! Happy to help!

Nice, I think they’re under appreciated. I still have a couple of things to repair. Thanks for the shout out.

P0303/P0302 simple cylinder misfire

What I’m seeing is throttle sensor or sensors. Which seems strange. So let me catch up with silly questions. 1. Battery age/voltage? 2. Are codes stored or do they come back after running for a very short time? 3. If stored have you disconnected negative cable for up to five minutes? Is so do they clear and then come back after stored. 4.How many miles/km overall condition? 5. Wash with power washer? On a different model I’ve seen voltage drop cause these types of codes get stuck in ecm. Honestly these are starter questions and probably take deeper investigation but gets me started.

Good luck and thanks for the comment!

Could there be a problem with the reverse power limiter. I’ve talked to several guys and no one has seen this

@@featuredelements4631I am not familiar with this but I will look into it , I re flashed the ECU and it did nothing so it is going to the local dealer and hopefully they can find something , can't hold of the customer any longer , if I find anything I will let you know Thanks for your hlp

No reverse ever now?

It will move in reverse if you hold the override button in.,this info came from the manual when referring to limp mode which there is no indication of from the cluster@@featuredelements4631

Got your message. Will look into it. Quick questions. Do you trust fuel, spark plugs, and exhaust maybe somewhat plugged. These are cheap and easy to replace ( plugs and fuel) exhaust just labor to check baffle or fiberglass material in muffler. Hopefully simple. I’ll keep checking and get back to you

Which Billy, Bad Santa, Fargo, or Sling Blade? Lol. In person it’s worse. Thanks for the comment

@@featuredelements4631 wait he wasn't in Fargo?

We had a gas/propane jlg in the past. I like the electric model a lot better. And the company is amazing to deal with. You can talk directly to technicians, engineers or parts people. One of their techs actually sent me a copy of his electrical “cheat sheet “. You couldn’t always have a different experience but I’ve been very happy

@@featuredelements4631 Thank you so much for the thorough response! Best of luck with your future projects. I'll be following along!

We do own the lift and will most likely keep it after the building is finished for maintenance. Do as much as possible yourself and hire the best skilled people for electrical, plumbing and hvac. Thanks for the question. We’ll look forward to hearing when you get started!

Good question! In our situation no attic,but air flow, R value, vapor barrier has been challenging. Different weather zones deal with this differently. I did what the inspector wanted and it made sense theoretically but I find steel buildings breathe more at the seams than you might expect. Thanks so much for checking it out and I have enjoyed your comments and questions.

@featuredelements4631 Thanks so much for taking the time. Alao, I assumed your area build codes would be somewhat different than mine, being I'm in southeast Texas and you're in NC. I can't wait to see more.

We had 2x6 walls and trusses 2” wide so sandwiched with 2x2’s then Teks self tapper up though plate into truss. I suffered a lot of indecision and hind sight with framing around those trusses. I didn’t care for the ways I saw others doing it. Not in love with the way we did it either. My advice is don’t center walls on trusses. Also keep walls 3’ minimum away from trusses for easier drywall/ painting whatever. Up coming videos will show that in better detail.

Part of the lean-to will be bedroom/office etc… so will get more insulation before ship lap ceilings. But porch’s will get ceilings too but will frost at night and warm days we were afraid of sweat forming on underneath side of roof.

Pretty good, the tough part was centering a siding rib on the window grid. Which meant siding from center out. Getting steel into “j “ channels from multiple directions.

We sat down with local company and decided things like; wall height, pitch, colors, and rough window/door openings. All interior wall material we purchased later from lumber yard.

Thanks for checking it out. Hope to have more out soon.

We have used it a ton. The people at snorkel are so helpful with troubleshooting. Good batteries are key. I can’t imagine not having it

They are very helpful! I spoke with them on the phone when trying to figure out my brake problem and they sent drawings and part numbers. Great customer service!@@featuredelements4631

I wondered about that later. We haven’t had any issues since. But I’ll keep that in mind if it flares up again. Thanks

keep in mind the idler will only swing so far until it hits the pump bracket/housing..the idea was to renew spring tension..FWIW there is a rubber insert inside the spring which will have to be shortened if you cut much more off the spring length.@@featuredelements4631

Thanks man!

Thanks so much! Gary

That’s a great idea. We should purchase one!

Thank you Linda! We’re pleased with the progress.

It has been an exciting journey so far!

Should be interesting. The permit office and inspector have been awesome to working with. Build big don’t want it undersized. Lol. We had an architect design our last house and never used the plans. Been watching your stuff I don’t know how you get it all done. Thanks for keeping up!

Thanks buddy

We could have done it either way, but our concern was wind during construction. The soil drainage is remarkable no wet holes on this hill. So holes are 4 1/2’ deep 24” diameter, we pour 11-12” of concrete that post sets on and 3/4 yard around post. Seems to make inspector happy. The wind coming through mountain range is crazy. Thanks for the question.

Thanks for checking it out. Daph’s Shea is a little tight for me. Maybe when I get the extra 20 pounds off between my chin and belt buckle I’ll fit. Thanks for the compliment

I am sorry for the confusion. At the start of your excellent video you have what appears to be a white classic Ford convertible parked in the drive behind the always practical Jeep. Henry Ford put America on wheels. Honda may be doing the same for the planet. Enjoy all your excellent rides and you are in great shape man , don't change a thing. @@featuredelements4631

It was good. Went Monday thru Saturday didn’t see another group until Friday afternoon. Hope all are well. Hopefully we’ll get together this fall.

Worth its weight in carpal tunnel repair! I’m surprised more people don’t buy or rent one.

Toy warehouse definitely cool. Toys good..lawnmowers bad. Walkin the mile

Walking the mile brother.

It’s a workhorse.

I purchased them through the local Napa store. So far so good. There are 8 batteries at approximately $150 a piece. I believe after having a gas/propane unit I much prefer electric. If I can ask what unit did you get?

Thank you so much for your quick reply means so much thank you really enjoyed your project. I can’t wait for the next video to come out and join what y’all doing? Looks like y’all having a blast I’m doing almost the same thing I purchased the 41E having to rework some hydraulic lines front swivel on the bucket batteries got a find out information about the tires probably need tires.

Thanks, good question. It is fiber reinforced. I’m told it different than the old fiberglass of 30 years ago. It’s more of a plastic according to the concrete people. We put steel expansion joints where appendages met main floor and saw cut the rest 10’ squares and our base was tight. Daph has a brother in-law that owned a concrete plant and he swears it’s true. You know how it is…time will tell. I might end up stubbing my toe on every saw cut in here. Thanks for watching

@@featuredelements4631 thanks a lot for the answer back on this, keep up the great work you are doing

18’ side wall. 6/12 main roof with 14’ tall doors. I know more than you asked. But those things work together for what we wanted in the end. Thanks for the question

@@featuredelements4631 thank you can you tell me your source for the trusses I am in Michigan

Oh and I was subscriber number 284

We’re in North Carolina.

Yeah, already paid off. It’s amazing how quickly to forget the struggles of yesterday when moving forward. We’re in North Carolina. We finished logging about a year ago.

Tell Karma we have treats! Miss you guys
