Ahh timber finish sizes, yep as you discovered whenever you get a fresh delivery you gota check it’s dimensions, unless it went through the planer at the same time they differ a lot!
Tim, you had big balls to leave that lovely house & the magnificent workshop! But, there are always greater challenges around the corner as you have so clearly demonstrated! More power to your elbow sir!!
Well done team, nice to see a bit of lateral thinking. Farm jack is a brilliant bit of kit, one of my favourite tools. Someone really used their brains designing it.
That looked like a lot of hard work but I loved the water level. Its such a handy thing with no power being used or needed. To fill your tube and keep air out the simple route is to have a deep bucket filled with water then its as easy as coiling the tube from one end into the bucket. By the time you get to the other end you have a tube full of water, no sucking or pouring no fuss. Shame about the wood being a different size could you have used shims on the floor side of the walls after all it seemed to be about 1/4 inch which can be "disguised" when you install the drywall/siding, I know... you would know that it was not done right and that would bug you till the day that it was corrected. Thanks for posting
Not a massive commenter but a long- ish time veiwer . I must say it’s nice to see the couple in restoration couple …..again . Top bloke Tim but share the tube time lol
that house you're building is gonna be a lot bigger than I imagined. seeing the two floors side by side, really shows the scale of this building. Jo, no sunglasses when on camera! 😋😋
Tim please wear your hat all the time regardless of the weather,,, I have the same fair colouring as you and at 68 now have sun damage on my head,,, be careful,,, love your videos 👍
Not sure if I missed a video where you explained it, but why are you building it in that spot? How are you going to get it out of there once it's built?
I'm surprised you didnt use the Hi-Lift jact to pull the two parts together for the final few inches. Simply turn the top jaw through 90 degrees and you have a high powered clamp with a squeezing action.
The main issue was that it was still touching tyres to the floor. We did try the jack off the concrete walls which worked a bit but couldn’t face the comments on showing that one! 😂
😂, it hadn’t arrived when we were doing this. That said, it won’t work when we are repositioning the complete buildings so need to find the proper equipment to do it.
Great stuff guys if you ever move them on to softer ground best of luck
Thought you were filming the remake of The Great Escape at one point! Charles Bronson would be proud of your trolley skills.
Was always waiting to see how you got those two chasis levelled up and joined together. Love the ingenuity you brought to the job.👏🙂

This is good experience for when you move the trailers and have to join them up again. I'm sure it will be much harder in a field.
Couple sheets of hardboard shiny side up under the wheels and washing up liquid then pushing side ways becomes a lot easier.
Great progress well done.
I spin my twin axle caravan on 2 sheets of ply and sand in between.
That sounds like it could have worked. Not sure about when they are fully built but worth a try. 👍
Best outtro yet! Go Jo!
Don't knock the sunhat. Those of us with a bit of thatch missing always need a good sunhat. 😁

I enjoyed watching you bodge hodge and podge.
Love your work 👍
In years to come the girls will be able to look back at the house that Tim & Jo built....hope the weather stay's kind to ye.....
In years to come I hope it’s not this one they are looking back on and it’s the main house that’s finished! 🤞
Stays
Great video
Great job, making great progress - and can't beat a bit of "dad dancing" Tim!!
Great job today wall's going up soon cannot wait 😀 🙌 😊
Walls
Snatchblock!!! Absolutely amazing pieces of kit for pulley arrangements!
I read that in Destin's voice
@@ktulu193 Hey it's me Destin, welcome back to smarter every day
@@TheBeanyi Snatchblock!!
Surprised yer Farmer Buddies didn't suggest 'Boning Rods' - 100% accuracy every time 👍🤠

Cheapest skids you can get to put under the wheels are the trays from McDonalds. I've used them many a time to slide stuff easily.
Instead recutting the studs, I'd be looking for a new fat top plate. Or make some packers/wedges.
But hey you got it done, that's all that counts.
I cant even reverse a small trailer with my car so I dont know how you did the moving of that length of floor. Well done.
Certainly not as easy as a sped up edited video clip I can tell you. 😂
what is the program that you used to desine the house
What an amazing moment --- fully assembled floor ready for then next step 🙂
Great job Tim Joe, you can really see how big the floor plan is going to be, leveling the floor didn't look easy! 👍🙂
that house you're building is gonna be a lot bigger than I imagined. seeing the two floors side by side, really shows the scale of this building. Jo, no sunglasses when on camera! 😋😋
All looking good
Tim please wear your hat all the time regardless of the weather,,, I have the same fair colouring as you and at 68 now have sun damage on my head,,, be careful,,, love your videos 👍
Jo’s a keeper! Oh you knew that??? 😂😂😂👍
You're going to have a massive workshop once you get a house built 😉 😂
How are you going to move it when its done? Serious weight and size
Crane or telehandler. We will cross that bridge when we get to it! 😂
Water lvl, good old type tool👍. Only in place of water in level- alcohol, won't frost in cold weather🤭
But anyway, good job👍things going forward well.
Will that steel frame take the weight , which by now is heavy , and that’s without the walls , roof and everything else ?
We will do an update on weight once we get roof on this week. Chassis are rated at something like 10 tonnes each side.
Not sure if I missed a video where you explained it, but why are you building it in that spot? How are you going to get it out of there once it's built?
Watch previous video. Tim is busy

Upside down caster is a camber 👍

Epic 😎👍✅✅✅
Nice pins, should have been the thumbnail, you'd be over 200k in no time 😀
You need something like a small telehandler to move them sideways.
😂, it hadn’t arrived when we were doing this. That said, it won’t work when we are repositioning the complete buildings so need to find the proper equipment to do it.
How will you separate them once built? I mean wheel them away from each other ?
Erm.....undo the bolts Einstein
Pump. pump. Pump it up!!
At one point there it looked like you were building an aircraft carrier!
Dad used antifreeze in the water so you could see the line water better
I read a few who suggested that. I think I’d trust food dye more, reaction speed while siphoning not good enough! 😂
4mm ply? Ontop of plate
Only one of the four walls is high so running the double plate through planer should do it I hope.
why didn't you join them when they were 2 chassis
then work on them
They will be sold as two individual caravans
you could have still done it that way a lot easier anyway all the best to you and your family ps love your dog
Scaffold tubes not poles 😆
Polish TH-cam ?!!!
Please don’t refer to your head covering as a “silly” hat. It’s the thing that can keep skin cancer away. The bigger the brim, the better.
Totally agree sir,,, we tend to forget about the harmful rays of the sun when working outside
Nowt wrong with the hat and it's better than a burnt spam.
I think people should be careful about using the term 'leveling up' these days...
That water technique will not work, the Earth is flat
You have too much money ,and no clue
Always ready for helpful advice. 👍
