We live in Western Pa. and Have around 100 Acres of Land, About 1/2 is ours the rest is my moms, We have 4 kids and one grandchild, 3 Golden Retrievers and one Cat. We enjoy working on our property and making improvements. We sell firewood and soon will be selling hardwood lumber.
I met my wife at a dog obedience class, 55yrs ago. Been obedient ever since
hahahaha,... You gave me a good laugh.....
Had a number of women over the years. Never responded well to the leash, till this one. ;(
Phil; So they trained her good too. I saved the cost and trained mine myself.
@@billmorris2613 I forgot the "I've" in the been obedient part LOL
Phil Sales That would not work for me, or her either. There is not a submissive bone in my body. It works for us, we celebrate our 53rd anniversary this summer. And we dated for 4 years before we got married. She was a chef and ran her kitchen with a pretty firm, but fair, hand and did a great job.
i hope you never run out of projects to do would make alot of people sad if you all quit posting videos God Bless and be blessed with good health
Have a good day everyone, its just after 8pm here in Western Australia hope all is well in your part of the world
Looking good I did that for a green house many years ago.
@Hello Michael how are you doing
The 4"screws & washers & the jig you made ....that's all GREAT planning. I like how you THINK!
Thanks 👍
@Hello Tim how are you doing
Good morning Morgan’s! Great to see supervisor Ty on the job! Have a day!
@Hello How are you doing dear
Sometimes digging by hand is just the safest way to do it. I’d just put on my favorite radio station and get in the zone. Really enjoying the pole barn series.
Great building need to watch more of your projects , Looks like you have the right equipment and supervision needed to get it right. Thky.
@Hello John how are you doing
I’m glad that you decided to build that building. It is making for some informative/educational video content. I enjoy these types of videos. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY
Awesome, thank you!
@Hello Matthew how are you doing
Mike, I went and bought one of them cheap Harbor Freight plate tampers about 14 years ago using I think the exact same reasoning! Lol
Harbor Freight, gotta love em eh. About eight years ago I purchased a pneumatic Harbor Freight flooring nailer. It was on sale and I used a twenty percent off coupon too making it 99 bucks. After I finished nailing down my flooring in the 20 by 12 room, I sold the nailer on Craigslist for 85 bucks and it went fast too. Just a thought - good luck and thanks for the entertainment and experience. My first comment BTW after watching for nearly two years ...
Nice work Mike ! pretty clever gig! Your Grandson is adorable !
Thanks for buying Owens Corning material. My wife has been working for Owens for over 30 years. 👍
Good morning from Litchfield N H another warm day ahead of us again today. And enjoying out doors with the Morgan’s
Good morning from NW Missouri. Every time I see that dewalt 20v miter saw I want one.
Everything looks good glad to see Ty back on the job
You know Mike I'm 65 year's old and I still learn things watching your videos!!!!!!!!!
Wow, simple 2x4 jig, so smart! Mike Morgan's the guy with great tips on how to get things done smarter, not harder. I honestly don't think I would have thought of that. I also don't know that insulation was needed there, but I've never seen a heated floor install. Pushing the shovel is the best tool there I guess, the shale you put there is hard digging for sure. Don't hurt your back my friend, I need another few thousand videos from you! Outdoors With The Morgans is my #1 favorite channel, life without you would be bad. Great video this morning, thank you so much! Dogwoods here in Hickory NC are just beautiful and plentiful! 👍🚜😁
Maggie Valley N.C. is so beautiful, I miss my timeshare & golf.
Great Tool you built there Mike. Happy to see your building getting set-up. Nice the BX getting some exercise. See ya, Jason
Good morning Hunter ;-) I saw the first flock of Canada geese flying North over Montreal yesterday afternoon , looks like
Spring is finally arriving here ;-) Happy Birthday Archie ;-)
Bad,
Every time you see at least one thumbs up it is me.
@@oldmanfred8676 / Thanks Fred ;-)
Some Good Precision digging with that shovel, no wonder you wore the tip off over the years.
Another very good video. The building is moving right along now.
Time watching this video is 08:35 in Hope Mills, NC
Chilly 48F but getting warmer. I like the way Mike says There it is, "Only 28 to go." Nothing like light at the end of the tunnel [wall?]. Have a safe day and Ty makes a darn good Supervisor.
R.I.P. STANLEY WE ALL MISS YOU!
Ken, I am starting to think that animals, especially pets are better to be around than people. Actually I am certain they are better.
Very nice dual purpose 2x4 jig.
Thanks 👍
Mike,
May want to consider adding concrete-filled vertical pipes outside of your door frames to prevent equipment from accidentally grazing the building. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
Your finished project will be amazing!
Yeah - the fully edited dramatic opening. Thanks Mike!
wow that looks like a bunch of work... cool jig... i like that it was set up for two measurements!
Going to be in the mid 60's here today and tomorrow! SPRING!!! Coming together, Mike!
Have a great day everyone!!
Getter done. 😊👍
@Hello Evan how are you doing
@@lydialas8756 I'm still on the top side of the green !!!!🏕
@@evankibbe590 Oh that is nice of you I hope we can get to know each other and can you suggest a way we can talk off here if you dont mind
@@evankibbe590 Okay just add @ gmail to my name here and chat me on google chat
lookin good you guys!... your going to like the heated flloor!...thanks 4 video. be kind.
Good luck with the training. We have trained several Golden Retriever males and it is always a fun and rewarding experience for the people and the animal. A properly trained dog is a joy for all!
Very nice Mike, great idea on the jig.
Happy Birthday Archie! That foam board looks easy just time consuming.
Mike as handy as you are. Hand digging will give you the best results. Working with my Dad as a cemetery caretaker. He showed me how to use 4' boom shovel. Being right handed hold the shovel flat on the ground. Rest your hands against your legs and lean forward to fill the shovel. Your arms won't get tired. Once you try it, it becomes natural. Enjoy your channel. You're doing a fantastic jib!
Really enjoy your productions. Camera angles, music all set to time.
I bought A plate tamper from Harbor freight six years ago and I love it works really well
I like that idea good video thanks!
Good morning everyone. 52º in Kansas City now. Overslept again. Heading to Versailles Mo to get my 2nd Covid shot at the county seat for the farm. Stay safe, be humble & kind and have a day.
That should really help keep your new place thermally secure! Good work, Mike!
@Hello Mike how are you doing
Hi Ty Mike an Melissa Have a day love from TEXAS
You sure can come up with some great "short cut" ideas. Wish I lived closer as I'd like to give ya a hand.
Wow what a clever system!!! Always thinking!!
Happy Birthday to Archie from Greensboro NC. All the best to the Morgan's
Hey mike you sure a smooth operator and your family stuff is great!!!!!!! Looking to more great content VIDS!!!!!!!!!
It hit 60°F sunny in Providence, RI 🇺🇸 And no mud Mike
Mike, I cut foam board with a knife like you until a friend told me to get a foam cutting hot wire knife. They are inexpensive. Plug it into 110v, the blade gets hot, lay down a straight edge on the foam, run the knife along the straight edge, and you get a perfect cut very rapidly. With all that you have to cut, it would be a very inexpensive way to improve quality and speed! HF has them as do many other stores.
No stunt double indeed. Looks like Mike proved he knows his way around a shovel.
Ty is just adorable. He definitely loves his grampa's equipment. We all remember and miss Stanley. He was lucky dog to have lived his life with your family.
WOWWWWWW MIKE, YOU ARE ONE FAST DIGGER, AMAZING.
Hey Mike! You also might want to consider purchasing a used tamper. I've had good success purchasing used equipment from rental companies, knowing that I will not be using the equipment very often. Everything I have purchased so far was very well maintained! 👍
Hello Mike- 3”x16” perimeter wall insulation is fine. You need to consider, cutting out 2” in the floor area and install 2” rigid board in the slab. I’ve done a dozen or so houses and works shops like that. One one was done without insulation, the floor hardly gets warm. Rigid foam down, strap tubing on the board and pour 4” inches of concrete. Have plenty of zones, in case of future failure. Good luck. Consider using a outdoor boiler for heater and also install a 150k acoil with blower. It’ll heat it up quick then let the water take over to maintain.
Wish I would have done this to my 30 x 40. Great thing to do.
I use beer bottle caps as washers when I'm screwing foam on! :) But you need a lot of em!
That Looks Perfect Mike looks like you have a good method to getting it Done! Seams you can be counted on to do the Job Right!!👍👊
Goodmorning Morgans and everyone watching this episode. Hey Melissa and Mike remembering your old dogs birthday is cool my wife and i remember our two wolf hybrids birthday which where last month those are two animals we miss so bad greatest dogs we ever had. Buildings looking good foam insulation will go up quick. Thanks for sharing
I was ogling that miter saw also thinking it would be nice to have one these! God Bless the Morgans! ❤️🙏😊🇺🇸
Good job Mike 👍🙂🙃❤️
That's a great and simple to make fixture for the insulation panels, Mike. That's called working smarter, not harder. That's 95% of the game.
It’s gonna be nice when you get it done Mike. 👍👍👍❤️
Morning Morgan's!
Good morning Michael ;-)
@@badcat4707 Morning friend!
That's a heck of a lot of shoveling, Mike. The insulation work you're doing is much better than my contractors ever did; those ditch bottoms and edges are super clean, which will make that pour really nice, too. Hard to imagine how you could do things any better.
Foreman back out checking your work!!
Ty has the right idea...get on the equipment and get things done
GREAT JOB 👍 MIKE! HAVE A DAY!
Its the simple things like the 2x4 jig that make jobs much easier
Foam boarding by the inch is a cinch, by the yard is hard... nice progress - step by step! Enjoyed the drone footage! Marcus from Chesapeake VA.
Great video Mike 🇺🇲
Love the jig Mike, great idea.
#outstanding job on the foam board #outdoorgans!!!!
Great idea Mike on the 2”4 trick I’m going to try this on my barn this spring when I finish it up
Good morning ,mike you will finish the job in no time ,
Enjoyable video stay safe all. Regards Frank and Nanette from Oaklands,NSW Australia
I purchased a plate compactor from NorthernTool last week. Cost right at a grand but it comes with a Honda Engine, which is my preference.
Good luck with the training once he's trained he will be even happier keeping busy with a job. I've had dogs of all different breeds my whole life and now have a Belgian Malinois that has been the most amazingly smartest and fastest member of my family that I've ever seen
Good morning Mike and Melissa have a great day God Bless from Joel in Pilot Knob,Mo
Looking Great!! I'm in the process of building a ne 36x48 6-stall horse barn w/future living quarters upstairs. So excited from watching your build. Keep up the great video's.
Absolutely do the HF Plate compactor. Similar situation here back when I did a huge paver patio and walk around the side of the house. Also compacted my trenches for the Pavestone retaining walls around the back garden. Starting and stopping as time became available. Would have cost a fortune to rent one multiple times.
That was a dozen years ago. I've been loaning it out to various friends and co-workers ever since. Zero issues with it and it worked great. I think it's at a retired co-worker's new house in Wyoming right now. Don't really care as he gets to store it and move it out the way. BTW, buy one those HF wooden dollies at the same time for moving it around the shop. Maybe I'll bring it back to CO one of these days and put it on Craigslist. Watch for sales and coupons, probably save another $100. Keep up the good work. I've got about 900 days left before retirement and hopefully doing a lot more of the things you're doing right now, including the building.
Great Job Installing the Foam‼️ Should work out perfectly ‼️👍👍. Vinny 🇺🇸
Hey Mike, that jig was a time saver! Great idea!
Good morning Mike Melissa and Ty !!! It's 57 in Coastal SC and headed to the low 70's. Moving right along on your building and is looking great. I have a player tamper that I also got from Harbor Freight. Great purchase and have had absolutely no issues or problems except for the weight. It gets heavy after using it for extended period of time. Have a Day!!!
mike the harbor freight plate tamper is a great value.i bought one on facebook market place for half price that had only been used for like ten mnutes.i use it in my construction side buisness all summer long.well worth the money.
Good info
Up in northern michigan we lay down between 2 and 4 inches of eps then pour over it and the slab is insulated on 3 sides. We have a 50x100 pole barn that uses about 90 bucks natural gas to heat a month all winter to 70.
We are all counting but not one at a time. Archie definitely needs to be trained. And this is the right time to do it he’s over a year and he seems to be a very intelligent dog. Early training will bring out the best in his manners hand the depth of what he can be trained for. Good luck archery and happy birthday to you too.
Happy Birthday, Archie!
I'm not going to lie, I'm with Ty, I'd rather see the equipment moving too lol Great Channel keep up the good work!
Good morning. Going to be a beautiful day today.
Liked TY called "Little Guy" need him to call Mike "Big Guy"!! Health and Happiness to all.
I grew up with a heated basement floor in the house my dad built. He bent and used 1" hot water pipes under the concrete. Nobody had heard of that at the time but no one could wait to get their boots off and walk on it when we came in from the cold. It pretty much heated the whole house. We made sure to heat the entire floor area when we reno'd our house now in Estonia. Our houses in Sweden only have heated bathroom floors and electric baseboard heat which is WiFi controlled but it's not as effective (or as inexpensive) as entire area floor heating.
That’s pretty cool
UNDER the concrete? or INSIDE the concrete? I recall an old video about that system in "this old house" by VILA.
@@tuttova The pipes were raised above the crushed stone and the concrete was poured over them but eventually engulfed them so they ended up inside.
@Hello Silky how are you doing
Keep up the great work, it'll be really nice when all finished.
Nice one Mike, great job and lesson on the two stage depth gage
I like your new video today you did a really good it is looking nice good on your video good jop today
Great video.
I think I suggested it before but you need to put in steel pipes with cement in them as door jamb protectors.
@Hello Jeff how are you doing
Mike.... did you know they make a cutter for cutting that insulation...;... probably will find it a train shop... they use it for train layouts...... it works slick as a whistle It burns through using a thin wire hooked to electricity....and it is quick
Those plate tempers are nice. I just bought one myself. Looked at the HF ones as well. Only reason I did not was the ability to get a pad for it. They don’t have one and nobody makes one. I purchased one from Amazon that is 7hp more compaction than the hf model and we are doing porcelain tile pavers with it. If you’d like I can send you the info on the one I purchased. Just something to think about (future projects) for the investment.
My plan is to buy some of that hardy concrete board and rip them in half and then rip some osb about a foot wide. Did the out side and inside down deep enough. Add the osb to the 2x6s on the inside then caluk and install the hardy board outside and finish off with a thin set of cement mix and woven mesh. This will create a concrete look that once I pour the attached graded sidewalk all around the building it will be flush against that and the only gap showing will be about 1.5 inches under the metal trim. The inside I will install the foam board all around the building and the posts. then back fill, tamp and put in the foam board for the floors and place in rebar and or mesh and pour. This should create a cement wall to where nothing will eat its way inside.
Always those jobs on a project that require hand digging. Just have to get down and do it. Looking good. Snow is almost gone here in southern Minnesota, and talking highs in the 60’s next week. Spring has sprung.
Hi Mike , I got a Plate tamper from Harbor Freight, works great 👍 can’t go wrong
I would need a new back if I did that ! Hello from Gig Harbor Wa.
I have one of the Horrible Freight plate compactors, I love it. It's great for those homeowner jobs. Definitely pick one up!
