Little did a tired drive in movie frame realize that it would continue to live on in a new form factor with a family that appreciated it. As always a great project Joe.
Great project Joe! The thing that I appreciate most about your projects is how well thought out they are. With that you do two of the other important things, Work Smarter not harder and KISS, Keep It Super Simple. Thank you!
Thank you Alan! That’s my goal with most of these projects. Of course sometimes I go the other route and needlessly make them a bit on the ‘Rube Goldberg’ side of complex😂
This is fantastic news. You’ll give that Pony a loving safe home. Yes, do get a burro. We adopted one, and he became the sweetest little guy ever. He also bonded with one of our horses, which was nice for her.
Yes! First to comment. Whoooohooo.🎉 Love your vids and miss the sunny deserts of AZ. Shout out to Tucson Phoenix Casa Grande Rillito Oro Valley and the heart of it all Marana!!! Love the music and I really admire your work ethic. But most of all you are a great dad! And it's wonderful to see you all taking in a mustang. And thanks for the content! You are awesome🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much! Being a good husband and father are my top priorities….and yes, this little mustang is gonna be quite the involved project! We are super excited to show her off in the next video!!
It looks great and I love that you reuse metal siding when it doesn’t need to be new and perfect. Your wife’s paint job is professional, looks really good and the animals that live there will appreciate it
@@homesteadonomics I bet hay is expensive! Everything has gone up. Well you’re recycling quality siding while also providing a nice, clean and safe space for your animals, can’t ask for more really! I love that you build with materials that last so much longer than wood (and I love woodworking) but I’m sure out there under the heat and then the crazy rains you get, metal is really the ideal option. I’m in a desert in sw KS and the sun damage we get here plus high, constant winds… probably should be using similar materials. Anyways I appreciate utilizing recycled materials and being cost conscious, I still can’t get over using the theatre angle iron for fencing… really smart idea
What a great shelter for the new addition-a wild mustang yearling!! WooHoo! Awesome job to you, (building), Taryn (painting) and Marley (durability testing). Of course, thanks to Winnie for testing the catwalk, and Olive for testing the shading! And the chickens and goats for keeping us entertained! 🤠 Great video!
Very timely. I need to build a shelter for a cow soon. Our first on my wife’s TH-cam ambitions. We created a lesser version of your hay feeder for the goats. Your projects are always inspiring and well thought out very professional. Well done.
Always very informative and very interesting quality content !! Which is what a good man and his family with great standards for life will usually produce !
A yearling mustang will be quite the experience for you and your daughter. I've always been partial to the burros myself though. Best of luck with the new addition!
If a horse rolls or kicks at the metal on the stall walls please know that they can get seriously injured from the metal. Maybe consider close woven (no climb type) fencing on the interior lower part of the walls or solid wood. I had a distant neighbor that had this happen to one of his horses and it was a disaster. I want to copy your project for a RV shelter but ( a bit longer ). Like the no welding needed idea since that makes it much easier to DIY. You always have such great projects. Your videos are much appreciated.
I have been thinking about that space too. I like that non climb stuff I used for the divider but don’t like the price… so perhaps maybe some pan sheet or something in that space between the purlin rails.
This structure could work for goats or as storage in a dry climate, but as it stands is extremely dangerous for a horse, donkey, or any equid - especially a feral mustang. One kick will slice through that metal siding like butter, and easily slice a tendon. I also doubt the tubular posts will stand up to a full-sized horse or cow leaning and scratching themselves on it (and they will, guaranteed). 4x4 posts on the corners and 2 inch thick, 4 ft. high kick walls cost little compared to vet bills and the life of your horse.
Good luck with the Mustang! Joe, It's such a well built structure and you're so humble about your (accomplished) design and building skills. Marley, you're getting so tall 😎
My daughter has a mustang that was “unadoptable”. He is an incredible animal that really responded well to her. Marley will have a wonderful time with her new baby.
Nice job on the pole barn shelter Joe and smart use of stuff that would otherwise be thrown to the land fill. thanks for sharing keep up the great work.
Beautiful structure and love the 'use what ya got' attitude in your builds. Looking forward to the new critter coming in - I've had friends adopt wild mustangs and burros with great success
Wow! This is fantastic for so many reasons. What an incredible opportunity for Marly...and you too! We have 5 horses and they are all such amazing teachers/companions. Looking forward to the new content! 😊
Always such beautiful work. I’m not a builder or very handy like that, but I definitely learn from watching your videos. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge. Best of luck with the Mustang!
Thanks for clarifying the bee El em. Lol. Brother, this video is perfect timing for me. Thank you for the video and thank you for the ideas. God bless you and your family.
Thanks for checking it out and may God Bless you and your family as well! And referring to the bee El em😂….haha, yes, after the last few years I don’t want folks to confuse my reference to the land management agency with that of the marxist political organization 😂
Hello friend Joe 🙋What a beautiful project,....and at first I thought you were making a pergola, when you assembled the structure with the steel posts,....how beautiful was that cellar to protect and store the The food for the goats, it fascinates me how they have fun in the revolving carousel that you have made for them 😄🤗.... but if you need to build a pergola and get some grape plants on each side! or the ones of your preference! How beautiful the shirt of your intro the i.sgen of your channel! do you have them for sale? A cordial greeting friend and also for your beautiful family we will see you again very soon 🌵🌻👩🏻🌾🇲🇽
Love your videos and your creative builds. You messed up on one thing though. New projects mean new tools. Something like, "Hey Honey, I'm building this metal shed thing. I need a new welder." Wink Wink. Love your channel.
Love your work, as always! Horses are pushers. They will lean over fences and push on them, putting their weight into it, too. That alfalfa divide you have now should have another panel of height and its topboard. It is also going to quickly learn how to stick its head under the panel and steal the alfalfa from there, too. I would strongly recommend putting another verticle pole in the center of its length. The temptation for the alfalfa is going to be very high. Best of luck to you all with your mustang colt! I do not have any idea of your experience level with horses, but may I suggest you check out the videos at Think Like A Horse channel. The man has owned a wild mustang (maybe several) before, and understands how horses think and why they do what they do.
Great job, looks real good, and it’s works. I built many metal buildings in early 1980s and a few things called Barndominiums. All my outbuildings are built with repurposed materials. The animals don’t care.
I think it’s awesome you are getting a mustang. I recommend you put 2x8s around the inside so if the horse kicks, it doesn’t cut its leg. Nice shelter!
This is genius! I never would have thought to use steel tubing for a post barn style shed 😮 (thinking on it now, considering how many metal garages there are I don't know why it never crossed my mind 😂) I'm trying to finally set up a blacksmith shop here at my house (been trying for years) but it's always seemed out of reach due to cost among other factors. This solves a big part of that issue AND makes the framing fireproof to boot! Kudos!
Would worry that the young stang will tear up the structure. I would look at the extra cost to place vertical hard wood planks from the bottom rail to the middle rail to protect both the stang and your shelter. That being said it is a fine build and gives me ideas for the protective shelter for our Son's new tractor.
We get pretty high winds. But this side of my property is on the leeward side of my house and a bit down slope so it’s a bit protected. The roofing provides the cross-bracing/shear stabilization. But if it were a bit more exposed I’d definitely ad the diagonal bracing on the open sides.
Yep, we will be adding a round pen too, once the little yearling will take a halter and lead. But for now the Mustang heritage foundation and blm recommend just a 20x20 pen until they get the first part of gentling down.
Just a cost thing. Even though the purlins I was using were from a salvage yard, they were still more expensive than just buying wood for the lower portions.
How about now😉 Posts - 2x2”x14ga steel tubing(but I’d recommend larger) Purlins - 4” “C” purlins Wood 2x4’s for the remaining horizontal pieces. Corrugated roofing is a 26ga 2.5” deep corrugated type that is coming on parking structures Hope that helps!
Congratulations Joe. Marley must be thrilled with your latest animal acquisition. You are an excellent teacher of practical geometry and simple building solutions. Wishing you and your family a blessed week filled with gentle seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings after chores. If you do get and train a burro you bill have to build another trailer. Peace brother
Hi I was wondering how much it would cost to build a similar hay shelter like yours? We live out in California up in the foothills with winter being an issue as always with the occasional snow and wind being a factor.
Little did a tired drive in movie frame realize that it would continue to live on in a new form factor with a family that appreciated it. As always a great project Joe.
Thank you Lee! Can’t wait to show you the new Mustang!
Nice project. I like the combination of metal and wood and the no welding technique.
Thank you! It’s a pretty simple style structure that minimizes material inputs to just the necessities
Great project Joe! The thing that I appreciate most about your projects is how well thought out they are. With that you do two of the other important things, Work Smarter not harder and KISS, Keep It Super Simple. Thank you!
Thank you Alan! That’s my goal with most of these projects. Of course sometimes I go the other route and needlessly make them a bit on the ‘Rube Goldberg’ side of complex😂

Yes it will! And I know what you mean on the burros….I like them too!
Looks great who cares if any of it is used it all looks great your wife did a great job congratulations on all of your great work
Thank you David!
A master craftsman at work.
I don’t know about a master….more like a guy who knows enough to make it look good from a distance😂. But I do thank you for the kind words Jim🙏😊
@@homesteadonomics you mean like photogenic 😝😝😝😝😝😝?
So very excited to meet the newest member of the homestead family. The shelter structure looks very sturdy.
Thank you Sis! Wyndy will be excited to meet you too….provided you give her the treats she wants😊
@@homesteadonomics Oh boy, Aunt Jessica is all about the treats!
Another professional project, Joe! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you John!
Always love watching you work and seeing your creativity on display! Thanks for bringing us along during your journey. 👌🏼

Well I’m glad to here it! Hope it helps and comes in handy for you on a future project! 😊👍
Very nicely done. Have to love self tapping screws.
Thank you..,, and yes, self tappers sure do make it easy!
Good luck with the Mustang! Joe, It's such a well built structure and you're so humble about your (accomplished) design and building skills. Marley, you're getting so tall 😎
She sure is getting tall….way to fast in my opinion though 🤪
And we sure are excited about this whole new adventure….and can’t wait to show you!
well documented. Lots of tips and tricks I picked up
Thank you very much Patrick!
My daughter has a mustang that was “unadoptable”. He is an incredible animal that really responded well to her.
Marley will have a wonderful time with her new baby.
I always enjoy the videos and the time that you guys get to spend together. 👍
Thank you Justin! Glad to here it😊🙏
The Ryobi digger looks pretty good. I rented a bulky gas engine one from HD and I was a bit more awkward than you. Nice structure!
Yes, it has exceeded my expectations quite a bit! Wasn’t quite sure how well it’d do, but this thing will rip your arms off if you’re not careful🤪
Wow, this is an exciting thing! A horse for a aspiring cowgirl sounds just right. Good luck and enjoy.
Yes, we are very excited about this new adventure! Can wait to show the little mustang off in the next video!
Hi Joe, Taryn, & Marley!!! Happy birthday Taryn !!!! Love you guys!!!🥰
Nice job on the pole barn shelter Joe and smart use of stuff that would otherwise be thrown to the land fill. thanks for sharing keep up the great work.
Thank you!
That is so awesome you are rescuing a wild mustang. I’m so excited to see what’s to come ❤️❤️
Us too! It’s gonna be an adventure, can’t wait to show you!
Awesome job! Thank you for sharing your talents!
Thanks for checking it out!
Watching your videos is very good and useful. I have learned a lot of valuable experiences. I wish you and your family a lot of health
Very informative. I like how you explain stuff in a easy-to-understand way. Thank you

Awesome build Joe, I'm looking forward to some "Mustang content"!
Thanks Daniel! It’s gonna be quite a project…. Already a go right now too! Quite a large ‘yearling’ we picked up🤪
Well done!

Nother project done and sharp looking as usual. Wtg dude.
Love the goat exercise turn table.
I always like the build videos random or not.
Well I’m glad you do too!
Nice project!
I see your feline building inspector hard at work.
And of course Olive has to sign off on it.
Congrats on the horse.
Yeah she has been inspecting the railing, the roof, the hay bales, and everything else too…. And olive is the assistant inspector😂
Great work
Looks great! Good job!
Thank you!
Nicely done sir 👍😁
Thank you kindly Dave!
Awesome job. Very informative, thank you.
Nice job
Is there anything you cant build? Another entertaining video. All the best from Australia.
I'm a young female and I think I can make that, thank you.
I'm SURE you can! 👍🏻
You most certainly can😊👍
Wow that was excellent! Really clear and really helpful. #subscribed!
Turned out nice

Love the Goat Roundabout.
How is the wind out there? We get high winds and wanted to see if I would need cross bars for the roofing
We get pretty high winds. But this side of my property is on the leeward side of my house and a bit down slope so it’s a bit protected. The roofing provides the cross-bracing/shear stabilization. But if it were a bit more exposed I’d definitely ad the diagonal bracing on the open sides.
Nice work 👍
...some more rainwater catchment surface area 😜.
You can be sure if that!😉👍
Good luck with your horse adventure. Are you going to build some corals too, for exercising?
Yep, we will be adding a round pen too, once the little yearling will take a halter and lead. But for now the Mustang heritage foundation and blm recommend just a 20x20 pen until they get the first part of gentling down.
@@homesteadonomics , probably because they can't pick up spread. We had horses on pasture and when they go at it it's hard to stop them.
Awesome!😎
Le dejo un super 👍✔️) a esta gran descarga de exelente contenido 👌
🌵🌻👩🏻🌾🇲🇽
Muito bom mesmo parabéns
Thank you! 🙏
great job! I'm wondering, why did you use wood on the inside instead of making it all metal?
Just a cost thing. Even though the purlins I was using were from a salvage yard, they were still more expensive than just buying wood for the lower portions.
@@homesteadonomics ah gotcha.
It seems like the sheer strength all depends on the connection via those tiny tabs that are screwed into the posts.
8:13 use bolts. Screws will snap when the structure shakes in the wind.
Nice job! What grinder cut off blades are you using?
Hi, could you please tell me how you made that cable spool turntable for your goats? We have goats too and they would love it!
Looks great what's the rough cost ?
Excellent video. When you do an update could you take a minute and list specs for materials used?
How about now😉
Posts - 2x2”x14ga steel tubing(but I’d recommend larger)
Purlins - 4” “C” purlins
Wood 2x4’s for the remaining horizontal pieces.
Corrugated roofing is a 26ga 2.5” deep corrugated type that is coming on parking structures
Hope that helps!
You built a barn and automatically got a free barn cat! 😹😹😹😹
Yep! Best barn cat ever too! Winnie her brothers rarely let a day go by without drilling a dead rabbit, mouse or rat on our front door mat😂
Congratulations Joe. Marley must be thrilled with your latest animal acquisition. You are an excellent teacher of practical geometry and simple building solutions. Wishing you and your family a blessed week filled with gentle seasonally appropriate weather and restful evenings after chores. If you do get and train a burro you bill have to build another trailer. Peace brother
Have you gotten a lot of rain this winter?
11:33: What kind of paint and primer you used?
Where did you you your steel from? I am in San Tan Valley and looking for places to get things like C channel and square tubing.
What was the dimensions of your pole barn?
Great build, how would you keep rats and the barn cats from peeing on the bales?
Hi I was wondering how much it would cost to build a similar hay shelter like yours? We live out in California up in the foothills with winter being an issue as always with the occasional snow and wind being a factor.
