I’m 16, and I’ve been watching you guys for 6 months and today was my first day working construction; I helped pour a driveway. Keep up the videos 👍
child labour?

Arlo and johno are the truth they do so much work and are not recognized but as carpenters see that and how valuable they are to your company so great just love you guys and y’all work together one big A team
Loved the splinter!!! My wife heard me laughing and asked if I was watching another Perkins video, the joy of your job site makes me smile.
A photo of Ray’s Laser-eye should definitely go on a shirt! That’s a timeless look!
Every video is awesome. TH-cam should recommend to everyone
Stuck inside with a broken collarbone. Nothing like watching the Perkins crew. Makes my week much better
Good luck with the recovery!
Once again crushed it! Pretty gnarly splinter Jamie.
@Hello Ken how are you doing
Good to have Jaime back!
Jaime need his own channel tooo in addition to everything else you all make happen. INCREDIBLE
Arlo is the man! He so casually comes up with the proper cuts.
We take it for granted… But having a cut man like Arlo makes EVERYTHING easier
That view will never get old
Thanks for sharing the build. Take care and have fun.
@Hello Stanley how are you doing?
@@lydiaanderson6785 Hello, I am doing well thanks and you?
@@mrstan3997 Good, And that nice to know hope we get to know each other with time and patience if you don't mind?
I'd love to see a video on Jamie's hand and how it works. It looks crazy cool. Thanks for the videos! You guys are great!
was he mil.? probably not cause I see no other amputations but the damage he has seems excessive for workplace.
@@cmathews5909 The story: th-cam.com/video/AZMe0QIET6g/w-d-xo.html
You guys are quite entertaining. All good. Every job needs to have this kind of humor with the crew.
I love the hats!! Fancy sending one to the UK 😜. Glad to see Jamie back. His hand is incredible!
Thanks! I love my new hand”
@@jaimeperkins9606 Thank you for commenting. Made my day! 😁
Good to see some guys working, having fun, cracking jokes, and doing a great job as well.
Respect to my man working w/ T1. It’s a serious struggle not many people understand.
Man its good to see ur brother back building homes and helping u
Always look for ward to watching your build episodes and crew antics. Thanks.
Jaime, you were absolutely correct about the Japanese tree orientation. They also place them on the same side of the structure to correlate with the side of the mountain that the tree grew on. South side of the mountain = south side of the structure.
Love watching these guys...been framing 46 yrs....just how I learned ...great guys
I've done my share of framing...and I'd have loved being on your crew. Lots of smiles.
Fantastic video 📹. As a carpenter roofing was my favourite skill. Looking in from Ireland 🇮🇪
Hello from Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada. Thanks for sharing your great video’s please keep them coming.
@Hello Brent how are you doing?
So good to hear Jamie back again! I love his stories!! He needs to be a teacher!! Eric and Jamie would make great teacher’s. You guy’s stay hydrated it’s been really hot lately! Can’t wait for the next video. Thanks for sharing with us!! Ray and Jay well they need to get Ray’s house finished and put out more and longer video’s so get on to them Eric and Jamie. Stay safe!! Ray and Jay are awesome as well!!
They won't listen,the one to tell is "BECCCCCCCCCCCCCUH", She's Ray's inspiration to getting it done.
This is my first time watching Perkins builder brothers n I like what I see. Good job, folks.
Well I am 77 years old and probably not going to use a lot of the information that you presented in your video I am compelled to say that your video is both entertaining and informative and I enjoyed it very much
Jamie and Eric, you guys rock!!! Watching your videos brings back good memories working with you guys. Now you guys are famous and I am just a washed up old guy. Carry on.
EXCELLENT CRAFTSMANSHIP AND ATTITUDE BY ALL CONTRACTOR TEAM MEMBERS...VERY ENTERTAINING...THANK YOU FOR MAKING THESE WONDERFUL VIDEO TUTORIALS!
All the early vids are also super great to rewatch ..... fantastic and a a joy
Another great episode! My favourite channel on TH-cam!!!
Hey thanks Brad!
Always look forward to new videos from you’all. Before I retired I had a similar work environment. Everyone had a great time while getting our work done.
@Hello How are you doing
At the end of each video, u always thank us for ''BUILDING WITH YOU''! No, THANK YOU!!!!!!!! FOR LETTING US BE PART OF YOUR CREW!!!
I must say you lot are growing on my, I am really enjoying watching you build, I'm from the UK so not much of what you do applies here but I'm a Joiner almost from birth it's in my family blood from way back and apart from working wood I also love watching other's working it as you guys do, keep up the good work so I can keep watching, then tell me how you get so many veiwers as I struggle.
Jamie handsdown has the best personality on the channel. In fact everybody is unique in their own way. I think they deserve their own HGTV show. To the Young folks, make a petition or something to have them on HGTV. Tag them on Twitter. Make it happen
Thanks for all of your work not only building this home and talking about the why's, etc., but also for the excellent editing of these videos!
That's my comment for the algorithm!
Great videos guys. I went to school at Southwestern Community in Sylva. Love that area and the whole western side of NC. Grew up a masons tender and have done carpentry and electrical work as well. Have always enjoyed construction! But I really love watching REAL pros like you guys build complex projects like this!!! This is awesome!!! I just sit here and watch video after video after video. 😂
Watching you guys again after a long break (been busy) is just so nice. It's great to see everyone doing well; new bionics, new belts, and a cool new build. Keep it rolling boys. It's always a pleasure.
And that bit about the post being the "right way up"? Yeah, he isn't wrong. See, end grain not only wicks water but also draws it up through capillary action. If you were building a post and beam in an old-school style with posts landing directly upon stone, wicking and drawing moisture is something that you would do well to avoid, right? So you flip your posts.
I'm loving how this house is looking. I like the style
Learn something everytime you post. Thanks
You guys do an awesome job! Love how ya'll work well together with laughter! Thumbs up guys!
Here! Just what I needed to lift my mood. Cheers guys!
Awesome! That view is amazing.
@Hello David how are you doing?
Always fun to watch you and the team work together
My favorite content on TH-cam. I have learned so much from watching you guys!
Always so wholesome!
Wow. Truly a beautiful build, and what a view.
Good to see Jamie back to work with you guys
Great work guys. Love from 🇮🇪
Great job guys.
This is some fine carpentry u guys are doing I’ve done a few new construction and additions but doesn’t come close your guys is work great job guys keep up the good work ! Also learning a lot of new tricks from you guys
i always enjoy seeing something build and learning something new.. .thanks
I have never seen anyone set the rafters high on the ridge board like that interesting, the build is looking good fellas keep up the good work!
Ridge venting.
Great content, international fan from Taiwan. Keep up the great work guys.
Wonderful job guys doin a great job nothing is wrong with making mistakes how easy to fix it is the skills ask Mr Arlo he will confirm without compromising quality and standards also safety
GOD bless fellas
Like your work guys. Got some good pointers watching your video. Reminded me of when I was 1st starting out as a carpenter back in the early 70's when all our roofs were cut n stack. Humping all that lumber , 2x10 and 2x12 by hand. Makes you into pretty good shape for sure. Now that I am older, the young guys get to do the grunt work. All fun still.
True masters at your craft looking good
Getting ready to stick frame my own roof, wanted to refresh my memory. Excellent video!
Great Job explaining everything. Loved the episode.
Really great to watch and see this grow.
Good carpenters crown their studs. Great carpenters make sure all their studs stand the same way the tree did.
Lots of learning contents. Keep it coming.
Nice work guys!
You guys are absolutely genius in your abilities! I'm always glad to view your videos and watch the experts do their thing. Great content and interaction. Well done!
Looks great… wanting to see Jamie’s video on the spiral stairs
Here in Germany🇩🇪 diese this type of construction is inconceivable. Every garden shed is better built. Any structural engineer would describe the entire structure as defects. Personally, however, I like this design
Love watching y’all. So fun and informative
Some really excellent advice in this video! I like how you point out all the little details that obviously come from years and years of experience:)
Amazing Work
Thumbs up! It counts twice! 👍
I know 0 about building, yet I've watched every episode. I love these videos
really appreciate the info on how to build a structural loft roof with the vaulted living space below. i binge almost all your videos just to learn how to frame my own home one day. one of those things that ive wanted to do since i was a kid
I'm interested in Jamie's new hand it looks awesome being a wood working guy myself missing fingers it would be awesome for a video for us guys
Post should be placed same as direction of growth because of density. Closer to the base the greater the density which gives greater support.
Great explanation! Thanks
@@PerkinsBuilderBrothers yea that goes for 2x4 and 2x6s too... ha ha
Looking good fellas!
Looking good guys👍🏴
Exclusive materials? These guys are changing the game
Great roof framing tips. Gosh, it must be nice to have man power. In the old days, workers were scare that knew how to frame, and most of the time you were pulling 2x12 rafter up yourself, ouch, back attack. You brothers have paid your dues building with your Dad, and now can enjoy the reputation, and money that goes into building in custom locations. Hat off to you.
Hello from Baghdad guys, great work, I watched All the of episodes
Great video....the scenery reminds me so much of Beech Mountain
Hello from Norway. We frame somwhat different here. But it was interessting to se your ways. Thanks for this!
@Hello Dag how are you doing?
Beautiful work.
Just found yall videos 📹 !! I like yalls style 😎 !! I like the commentary while working and also the voice talk in person with each other !! Nice framing ......
Great job. And a very nice view 👍🥂🥂🥂
Great video guys.
Awesome job guys, you are my new favorite builders after RR Buildings!
Always enjoy and always learning from you guys! Keep it up!
I've watched many building videos, but yours are the ones I learn the most from. thanks.
Great job! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome job guys and thanks for all the great videos
Nice job!
Oh shit! Glad to see it's built. I heard about this before I left Cherokee back at the beginning of 2020. Or something lije this from the Nantahala on Bryson City. I grew up in New Mexico, and moved back a week before lockdowns. Bummed.
I'll be back in January. This will be one of the 1st places I visit.
Moving right along!
It’s funny that whatever you are building, I’m doing something very similar on our projects. Great job, guys!
Brilliant stuff!!!
Another great Perkins video. Thanks guys. Keep the content coming.
Great video. As usual a valuable learning experience.
Jamie's thing about the beam standing like the tree actually sounded legit
It actually is legit. Japanese carpenters do it. Also, dropping the post will probably help it stay straighter over time. This can be done to stabilize wood when building furniture, table lees, etc… why not an 8X8?
@@ChrisDarjany I heard when they cut by handsaw that the teeth pull the wood towards them to become closer with it.. I know I run my hacksaw blades backwards and it works for me.
Man I love your videos and whole crew chemistry. Happy new year from Serbia!
Yet another great video, cheers lads 👏
