Hey Glenn, without saying a word, you helped provide me with more tips on woodworking than someone who rambled on for hours about nothing. This is a beautiful build. Thank you.
Such a gorgeous book - each shed is unique and inspiring, and I love all the tiny details Kotite features to help readers imagine how to create their own She Sheds th-cam.com/users/postUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR . The feature on Dinah's Rustic Retreat is like something from a fairy tale. It's really inspiring to see how creative all these ordinary people are in making beautiful and useful spaces on a modest scale.
I have had very much help from this video when building my own pergola at home. As a homeowner without much experience in building things (network engineer here) I set out on this deck/pergola project this summer. Searched all there is about regulations, best practices, tools, how-to etc and when it came down to the details of building a sturdy pergola, i pretty much took all ideas for our project from this video. All from cutting out the pattern on the rafters, to exactly how to notch them, to secure them etc. It did take a little more than two days, obviously.... Thank you for making a very instructive and easy to follow video so even a happy but not that handy guy could do it!
Great job. As I watched you wield a persuader to mate the rafters to the beams, a lesson I've learned when building outdoor projects in the NW came to mind: the end grain shoulders of the notches on the rafters aren't going to dry much when tightly fitted, and they will expand in the wet seasons, slowing crushing the cell walls of the beam while driving in moisture. Even Cedar is subject to rot sooner than you'd think--unless you source old growth. It's tempting to always want to show off precision, but a bit looser fit, consistent of course, will last a lot longer. Alternatively, it pays to take the extra time required to apply end grain preservative, especially on the tenon shoulders, which being horizontal, will trap and hold moisture every time it rains.
Beautifully done! You know you've done an excellent job/made the right choice when after all is said and done you can't imagine your home without the addition or improvement you've just completed. That pergola belongs there.
You've done an excellent job. It looks beautiful. I cannot wait to show this video to my husband. He promised me he would build me a pergola this summer. I hope mine looks as beautiful as this one.
You did an amazing job!!! I bet your wife was very happy with it! I was getting so nervous seeing you clamp numerous boards together and cut them all at the same time. I have done this and made a huge trellis and cutting all the boards at the same time was just too much for me, I kept thinking I would make an error. Mine finally came out great but yours is amazing! Bravo!!
Dude, that is an outstanding job. Seriously, nice - and precise - work. You’ve added interest and value to your home and it stands out in a big way. Congrats!
Glenn, I’m sure you’ll enjoy spending time out there in the spring/summer weather, especially with this uncomfortable Coronavirus situation going on all around us.
I was looking for a video that showed how to build a pergola properly. I have just found it!, Thanks for taking the time to make and upload this video, I now have a busy few days ahead of me. Let’s start pergola-ing, pretty sure that’s not a word.
Thank you.....with most of us staying home it is a great time for home improvement. The wife has wanted one of these for years. I am not the handiest person but I will give it the ole college try.
THEE BEST PERGOLA BUILD ON TH-cam..Thank you for the build instructions. Making a pergola beam privacy fence this weekend, this video is extremely helpful. Thanks!
Glenn Frazee Question: How deep are the notches cut for the main beam and rafters. I know you said "half-notch", but how deep is a half-notch? Rookie question, 😳
I’m a carpenter for many years and I love learning something new. Remember you new guys when pricing this add enough for time planning, design, getting materials, and sales and invoicing and profits.
Thank you for motivating me and making it simple for all the DIYers out there. I built myself a pergola following your plans and hope to be able to show you the final result soon. Keep up the good work.
The thing with these one “man-builds X” series on YT is that most of them have access to hudreds-of-thousands dollar worth of tools and equipment. Which 99% of us don’t have, nor can we invest on unless we do these sort of thing commercially.
@@mordinsolus9414 he used a circular saw, router, jigsaw, saw saw, air compressor, pneumatic brad nailer, saw horses, clamps, chisels and a concrete drill bit. You could buy all of that for 1,000 to 1,500 dollars. You could like me start to buy some tools and then add more to your inventory with time.
I am currently working on my deck and backyard area. I just completed the fence and am working on my shed. My wife talked about wanting me to build a pergola when the deck is complete. This is not necessarily the style that I would go with but it is very nice. Great work! It sure gives me some good ideas.
I know why it only took 2 days. His wife never came out to ask a thousand questions every couple of hours and questioning if he thought of this or that or why is he doing it this way and not that. Great video.
Great job. My hubby expects me to interrupt. Been doing it for 30 yrs. And i have actually started reno projects while he has been away fishing or camping and when he gets back he is invited to finish it. Lol we do work great together. Cheers Mrs G.
Great video. I love the craftsmanship - using rebated joints instead of those galvanised hanger brackets that are so popular here in Australia. I’ve built a few pergolas and know just how nice that tasty beverage is at the end. Thanks for posting this.
Very nice pergola, you really came up with a great design and build. Really liked it. Your video is very nicely edited, short, sweet and to the point. From Missouri
Great video. Just purchased my supplies over the weekend and excited to start this project. However, this might be a dumb question but where did you use the 2-7/8 flathead fasteners?
I have a pool in the backyard and concrete ground’s not leveled up, and you gave me this brilliant idea on how to set up post heights and saved me from the dilemma! Thank you man!
what a nice music selection.. the beginning so smooth melodic. then the the dub parts, to groove them up and put it in a trancy wibe in the end. Your music selection says many thinks about the good work to
Awesome outcome.... Built one a few years ago, but dug the posts instead. Planning to build another one with my brother and this vid definitely gives me different techniques!!.. Great craftsmanship!
I’ve been building a pergola over the patio I made out front of our house. It’s about 16x 9 so a decent size. I’ve spent about a month working here and there, mainly on the weekends but I am also sanding every board and staining. It’s such a huge improvement to the front and people are amazed at how it’s turning out. Nothing better then having neighbors ask you if you charge to do this work. Heh. Long as you are creative handy with tools anyone can build these. Having the right tools is a major help also.
bigger it is the more you actually need footers and so on... its not a linear process. When you go bigger it requires more concrete work. You also SQUARE the number of fasteners involved, the process is LOGARITHMIC 🙃
Great channel and video, Glenn! Happy new subscriber here! One quick question: How do you create temporary post supports when there is nothing but concrete (i.e. no grass to sin a 2x4 stake in)...
Love how you notched everything. I’ve been looking at building one and not everyone does the notches on the poles and rafters and runs. I have a question. What is the common space between all of them? Thanks and great job on it! It looks great.
I would love to work with this gentleman look at what he is accomplishing by him self the man knows what he is doing we all could learn a lot from this man !
Great video! Subscribed! The only thing I would've done different and it would've taken longer would be used spar urethane (oil based) on the wood after the final cuts just prior to installation making it water repellent preserving it for many years.
Saw this pop up in my instractables feed great job! I am going to do something like this this summer over my concrete patio and have been looking at various designs.
one of he most complete vids and detailed information on how to build a pergola, after watching your video confidence has build up some more as it would seem a daunting task for one person you prove wrong ! awesome work !!!
All this time, I thought he was using his hands😂😂😂 just kidding, I think I get wat u getting at.....feet safety?? If yes, then we would need to add the helmet! I think the guy did a magnificent job & rest my case!👍😂
On our family home years ago I trained a trumpet vine to grow up a newly built pergola that attached to the side of our home. It was beautiful and attracted hummingbirds. It was beautiful. Wisteria is very nice, too.
Planted a single Wisteria plant along a new cedar fence with lattice top thinking it would look cute. After a few years the vine had literally strangled, crushed and deformed my fence. It's like slow motion violence combined with Shackleton's wooden ship ripped apart by pack ice. Ruined the fence and then proceeded to climb and strangle a nearby cedar tree up to 30 foot heights. Plant should come with a waning label.
It’s actually impressive how all the notches just fit. If I were to do it, especially on the second layer of crossmembers, I would have not been able to notch them on the ground and just lay them on so confidently. Great video.
Awesome job Bro.. The curves on the woods were precise and looks amazing. And the last 10 seconds of the video is phenomenal. You deserve that relaxation, rest and refreshment..
That was awesome. Do remember what the length of the posts and the difference boards were? You have the with and the thickness. I would like mine to cover a larger patio and wanted to kind of uses yours as a reference. Thanks.
If you watched the video because you wanted to see how to build one, why in the world would someone thumb down this video. He showed all the tools and cost. You can buy a generic one at your local Costco for $1500 plus $400 for install. This one will most likely survive a hurricane. People are so judge mental. Great work!
muchas gracias por las instrucciones, estos proximos días por fin me animaré hacerla la mía , haces ver todo muy fácil, afortunadamente tengo todas las herramientas que indicas en el video
What a great build and video. Very Nice work. So many of these builds don't notch the post so the beams rest on the notch and they rely on the strength of the fastener connecting the beam to the post. The only thing I think you missed, is the opportunity to dress it up even more with the bracing....but its very beautiful as is...
