That is the sh*t they SHOULD be teaching more of in schools. Trades are the way to go. My old high school took out drafting, machine shop, auto shop and woodworking.
I took cabinetmaking in 1971 and loved it! Been a woodworker ever since! I was the only girl in a class of 24 guys and got straight A’s. I hope they do!
Do you have trouble in your town .Getting pest control companies to treat ICF homes . I watched another channel. He said pest control will not do a contract on his ICF home .
It's only as good as the people who run it. The Habitat in my area is absolute crap. It's very cliquish and the "volunteers" are very rude to anyone that shows up with any sort of professional knowledge. It's turned into a "good ol boy club" where half the time they stand around drinking beer. Needless to say, it's not a very productive program in my area. On the flip side there are some schools and churches in my area that have started building tiny homes. They gladly accept volunteers with professional skills and those programs are far more successful here. Habitat is pretty much gone in my area and I'd imagine within 5 years it will be completely shut down. But when you treat people like garbage, you get what you deserve. I'm glad to see there are still some good Habitat programs around.
Having a High School Vocational Education Student’s building the house for Habitat for Humanity’s is an awesome thing for the school to do not only do the students learn something but a deserving person/family gets a home. To me that is a win, win project that everyone involved in it can be proud of.
I grew up in IL close to this town and we had building trades in high school and it was the best class to teach you construction, drafting, electricity, and metals...it should be in all schools. We built a full home every two years, sold it, and used money to fund the class. This was 1976.
Looks like a strong build! Ten thousand thumbs up to the young Men and Women who built the project. Thanks for your hard work. Awesome job teachers without you it never would have happened.
Then someday a man/woman drives by with their kids/grandkids and they tell them, I helped build that house in High School building trades class for those folks.
I wish my area still had the vocational courses in high schools. Those kids did great and are very fortunate to have access to that kind of training. Great job to all involved.
What a great looking house for a young family! They should be proud to call this home! I wish schools still had this program, it was a great way to teach our child the value of the trades and skills of working with your hands to make something you could be proud of! Way to go kids👏👏👏 Thanks Mike for the follow up! This was great!!!!
"stuck in the middle with you" hahahahahaha. the song started paying in my head as soon a you said "to the right" hahahahahahah. man! he is the man with that RC.
Excellent video. My oldest son and my brother use to own a company that set modular homes. Now he owns a roofing and remodeling company that hires recovering addicts and teaches them skills not only in construction, but through raise incentive programs in finance, anger management, parenting skills and relationship skills. Also does community services for elderly and lower income families.
It sure does the my heart to see a community of the trades and school working together to help Habitat fulfill their mission. Hats off to you and Jason for contributing your time and skills. Those students will remember the build and erection as "we remember doing this " stories for the rest of their life.
It’s amazing that a highschool was able to build this. Not that I am doubting the abilities of the students because I’ve done it myself 40 years ago in grade 11. I’m surprised that a school has the space to build something this big. We prefabbed a garage and flat packed it to the job site to assemble and finish it. Not a chance we’d have the room to build an entire house. Great work from everyone. The Habitat program has definitely become an amazing program.
That crane crew traveled a good distance to get to that job. They are from Seymour, In. Their shop is 6 miles due west of my place on US 31. Good people.
Great job everyone! Kids did an awesome job building this! They will remember their part everytime they go through town. Crew was so professional, so much was on the line what with safety and perfect placement! Thanks for sharing this, amazing! And thanks to Habitat for making these homes available to deserving families!
Just goes to show what can happen when people unite together for a positive change in our world. Habitat has always been an organization focused on creating a better life for families in need, by uniting community and businesses around that common goal.
Know nothing about this programme here in UK, but looks to be well thought out. The way this building was built in halves is testament to the teachers ingenuity. And in having the courage to teach students how to build such a structure, which will stand them in good stead for the future. Well done DP for helping this project as you have with all the previous clearing, digging basement, and who knows how much else behind the scenes. Very interesting 38mins. From UK.
Good video. I worked for a mechanical company , and we set large walk- in freezers and Coolers. We used gallon freezer bags of ice under the units near the straps to hold the units up so you could remove the straps. Easy peasy.
This was quite the basement dig not only dug it once but twice cause the 1st one caved in. All the volunteers need a big hand. For a excellent job done.
I remember watching a modular home being installed when I was a kid. No crane, they pulled up next to the foundation, jacked up rail beams under the house frame, and pushed it sideways onto the foundation walls.
Great vid. Put in eight hours yesterday decking and papering a HFH house roof and the interior wall framing on another HFH house in Strawberry Plains, TN. We had approx. 65 volunteers working.
Include this video as one of your all time most awesome videos. It was a collaborative effort by different generations, and they got it done. Cool to see the young students getting to see the placement of their efforts for a good cause.
Yes it very neat to see i moved modular homes for eight years craned a lot of home.we always used a spreader bars and our trailers were able to rise up to match the basement so we could slide the homes onto the basement
Thanks for sharing this, Mike. I was hoping you'd show the completed project. Those HS kids should be very proud of what they accomplished and those teachers are rock stars. Well done all of you. To give someone a safe and secure home of their own is a priceless gift.
Mike and Aaron Thank Your for this Interesting Video. A House come in two Part. A Crane to put it of the Foundation! And the Supplying Firm make the last Work to the Finished Produkt. 👌👍
That was impressive ! My simple mind is always amazed at the logistical complexities coming together ! My son and his family are in a Habitat house and I can't give enough kudos to all the people that make it possible ! 👍💪✌
With all the workers knowing their jobs really went smoothly. Most is that all safety that went into this. The school classes did a great job of construction this job.
Proper school project for sure !!! All the pupils who built this should be proud of what they have achieved, and their teachers will be proud of how well this turned out ! No doubt the pupils and teachers will be able to pass this home and know they have contributed to the local community and helped a family gain a foothold in the town ! And a big thank you goes out to all the volunteers, contractors who supplied time, materials, and labour too 👏👏👏💪💪💪
Mike and Aaron awesome video, it’s great for the school to have a chance to teach students how to build! Some will move on and make a good living while others will thrive with their experience ! Thanks for sharing! Kevin
Thanks for coming full circle on this video! It's always nice to see the whole project take shape. If you have time, show us the project when it's completely done! Great video. Thanks Mike & Aaron! Lee
That is a pretty good project for a school to build. Brings back a lot of memories, I used to set a lot of houses from Decatur, IN, I’m pretty sure they are out of business now. I’ve probably set over 50 in my time, done it with a much smaller crane.
Great video for such a worthy cause! Shout out to all the contributors on this project. Hopefully, there are school teachers and administrators out there who will reach out and use this model as a springboard to include blue collar skills in their future curriculum.
That’s cool the kids built it. I didn’t think schools did that anymore. When I was in school around the mid 90s we would build one portable building a year. They would use that for another classroom. Nice job everyone.
I used to do that as a job 20 something year's ago. The houses we did the roofs with double folds 1 folded up the folded down on each side or half. Each half could be upto 60' long and up to 16' wide.
All Schools should teach life skills to students. Proud of all that do so!! By the way, I LOVE to hear that green Mack truck pulling a load. Sounds so good!!
Thats cool to see the progression. First you tearing the old house down. Then the dirt work. Now the new house going in. Thanks for sharing with us. Wish I lived close by. Would have been fun to be a part of.
I have seen this done many times and it still impresses me, the crane operator is skilled in his profession, his skill and that little donkey dozer, and the experienced are what make it go well. Thanks for the video, enjoyed watching.
Setting down a house is a concept we do not know in Belgium as all houses (buildings in general) are made of concrete, steel and bricks. Quite a way to install a house. Great job!
We had a crane drop a half a modular house when it tipped over. The pads under the stabilizers went thru the lawn. They hauled the damaged section away. Brought another new section 6 weeks later. The tipped over crane was the cover picture of our annual town report that year. A worker was in the cellar hole when the house fell but he was ok.
It was somewhere around 88-90 that they removed woodshop from my school. I remember hating I couldn't take it anymore. It is quite ashame that schools did away with that stuff back then. This has been amazing to watch knowing that the local school kids built it.
Hello Dirt perfect Since I found your channels me and my grandson have been binge watching your videos, so we can catch up! 😄😊 I love how funny yall are and watching you work is so relaxing!
that was a great project and to have the kids from shop class build and then see it being place put good thoughts in the heads . This is a great way for Habitat to get homes for the needy . I did projects in high school for animal shelters at a local bird sanctuary , 5 weeks of shop class , Myself and a friend coached the Truss and roof as we had experience in these fields. Great year for shop !
Thank you so much Mike and Aaron, now that was amazing to watch to see just how a community can come together and build rather than destroy, I just wish there were so many more programs like Habitat all over the world looking after people who serve their country and need the help some wont but the ones who do it would be fantastic, so thanks again both of you for taking the time to show us the finished results.
The several we’ve set, the crane service used spreader bars. I feel a lot more comfortable with using them, but obviously this way works. One we did had to be lifted up and over a garage, it’s pretty cool to see a house that far up in the air. I hope this project motivates kids to join the trade- we need them
Thanks Mike. This was very interesting. I had no idea how the process was going to shake out. Really enjoyed watching. The school did a wonderful job building the structure, awesome crane crew to locate and of course a "Dirt Perfect" site prep, basement and foundation. Thanks for the video
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Great to see the job completion and the high quality of skilled work being donated. Wishing you and your family the best.

That is the sh*t they SHOULD be teaching more of in schools. Trades are the way to go. My old high school took out drafting, machine shop, auto shop and woodworking.
Mine did that around 1996 to 2000 I think some of the class are making a way back in.
I took cabinetmaking in 1971 and loved it! Been a woodworker ever since! I was the only girl in a class of 24 guys and got straight A’s. I hope they do!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
It is a shame that so many high schools have turned into college preparatory institutions.
Do you have trouble in your town .Getting pest control companies to treat ICF homes . I watched another channel. He said pest control will not do a contract on his ICF home .
Habitat is a wonderful program. Getting the kids involved to build is even better. Thank you to all involved.

Your involvement in your community and surrounding areas is to be admired.
I wish my area still had the vocational courses in high schools. Those kids did great and are very fortunate to have access to that kind of training. Great job to all involved.
So many schools are dropping their shop classes and we wonder why we don’t have tradespeople. Idiots.
What a great looking house for a young family! They should be proud to call this home! I wish schools still had this program, it was a great way to teach our child the value of the trades and skills of working with your hands to make something you could be proud of!

Stealers Wheel 1972 , amazing how songs can be instantly recognized.

Good to see it all come together - fantastic community effort and use of training skills.

Having the right tool and knowledgeable worker makes moving entire houses simple.
I love that. You guys and everybody else did a amazing job. Thanks for what yall do.

Congrats to all the students/teachers and all the other people who helped in this project 👍👍from Victoria Australia 🇦🇺
Wow! So neat the kids have gotten involved in this.
All Schools should teach life skills to students. Proud of all that do so!! By the way, I LOVE to hear that green Mack truck pulling a load. Sounds so good!!
Very nice to see the job go so smoothly. We saw the foundation being done to the house being set, awesome videos Mike and Aaron 😊❤
This video was epic! High school students have done this project. Learning a trade. Thanks for sharing this achievement 👏 😊
I am so proud of your local school and community. Everyone has done a great job making a home for the new family. Great, video Mike.
when i was a kid i was in cvet we built part of the schools and i still feel pride 53 ish years later
Thats cool to see the progression. First you tearing the old house down. Then the dirt work. Now the new house going in. Thanks for sharing with us. Wish I lived close by. Would have been fun to be a part of.
That was a really cool process to watch. Especially love the way the top of the roof was hinged. Thanks for sharing Mike and Aaron!
Amaz8ng how these machines and man do together to get things done
3,496 👍's up DP thank you for sharing 🤗
Congratulations to the community

Very impressive project !! Habitat is a great cause. Thanks for sharing……
