Building as you go is one of the ways that prevents me from overthinking/stalemating a project. Just start with the basic build in my head and it always turns out. Nicely done.
Same. I'm here looking around to over analyzing an anwing rebuild after a hurricane. It would have survived just fine if a large live oak branch didn't mess it up, but I still feel as though I might as well just rebuild it better than it was.
The "building as you go" method is 100% my MO. I am glad there are others out there that are very successful doing projects that way. Too much planning on my part can stall projects or even keep them from happening. I will admit that TH-cam has inspired me and provided many great ideas for some of my projects. For example, my 2x72 inch belt grinder build, a metal melting foundry build, and my current project, a wood fired pizza oven. Thanks Jimbo!
Jim, the structure you built might be overkill, but it turned out very nice.... and you certainly don't have to worry if it's strong enough. Nice work as usual.
Wow, really nice, wish I had the same. Not sure, but does that block wall need to move independently of your garage and roof, and could that cause a problem? Might want to keep an eye on it over the years...
Always love your projects. The only concern I have with this one is the way the panels where installed. Looks beautiful but they are only supported along the edges and will most likely fail when the get a few years on them. Wish I was half the welder you are! Thanks for all the videos.
Hey Jimbo, you should use transparent/translucent acrylic sheets instead of metal sheets here - it would give you a lot of light that you are cutting off with the metal sheets.
Great Job, but two things to consider: 1. trusses are too much, you could have put only one in every 8 feet and fill the rest with wood. This would have made your job much cheaper and much easier. (Not as good looking as this though) 2. Are all the rain going to neighbor's property? What do they say about it?
the work looks good except you never put a gutter on the end of that metal sheeting to keep the water from going in your neighbor's yard he may not appreciate that why most building codes will not let you build close to the property line.
i know you said the roofing material is light weight, but it's normally the wind uplift that will do the damage and i really don't think those screws are the correct fixings. Either way, good job and great video as always.
Thanks for watching Dave, You have to remember i live in Southern California, The wind never blows more than 10 mph. And it never rains! Lol, Lol, Jimbos garage!
Great little video!...just what I was looking for. I'm building something similar, instead of metal roofing I'm using tinted polycarbonate double wall panels. They weigh Less than the metal roofing. I'm spanning 14ft. With the price of steel skyrocketing, I need the most efficient size "rafter"...do ya think 2" x 2" x 16 Gauge (Grade A500) will do the trick? Thanks! (great looking shop!!)
Lol. That usually happens to me when I'm far into a project and a mistake happens . Then in order to save what I've done a reeeaaalllly over complicate the project .... I salvage it, but boy is it a pain in the rear end 😂😂 Only concerns I c r wind uplift and "wind tunneling" through there . Maybe a door or something to minimize? On another note , nice job 👍
What thickness did you use on the square tubing? Thinking about doing a similar project just not sure on thickness. Any help would greatly be appreciated.
Love your videos. Since you made the wall the full height all the way down, why not just use the wall to hold up the outside edge of the roof instead of adding all the steel tubing to hold that up?
Enjoyed watching your video and great welding skills indeed. I kinda wonder for an awning this size do you need to include a gutter to channel the rain water?
Looks awesome. Good shout on filling in the wall. Some corrugated plastic sheets would help get some light in, but if you're getting some lamps in anyway, why would you. Did you seal the overlaps? I've worked of a few corrugated projects and if you don't seal the overlap moss get's under it and is a pain in arse to get out.
That's a lot of work though it turns out very aesthetically pretty... I would have install far less rafters at ten feet intervals and run a couple of long purlin/battens to hold up the roofing sheets...
Boy you weren't kidding about over building it .. It's ready for some 1/2" plate at least.Very nice build and it's definitely given me some inspiration. Did it cost 3x more because of the labor or are you only counting materials?
Roof was framed wrong . Supposed to have perpendicular members(purlins)to the rafters to accommodate and support corrigated sheets.But overall it was a decent job
Why didn't you use steel sections? Could be put further apart. Anyway you should place a joist inthe middle of the corrugated panels, but that is just my opinion. You work different in usa
you build some great projects, what are the make and model of the welders you use and why do you like them ? I am shopping for a new mig and I unsure which brand to buy.
Thanks for watching Tom, First of all it never rains here in Southern California, Lol,Lol, But it goes into an open field and then to a flood control channel. Jimbos garage!
I'd be worried about rodents or birds nesting on top of this under your shops eaves. I would have stopped the metal roofing at the fascia board , that would also help a lot with ventilation.
When you pulled the original building permit for the shop was there a building setback requirement from the block wall/property line? If so, by attaching the awning to the building you are extending the structure into the setback. As you built it does this still satisfy the original setback requirement?

Thanks for watching Moe! Yes i have to build as i go or i do the same thing, Over Analyze everything!!. Jimbos garage!
Same. I'm here looking around to over analyzing an anwing rebuild after a hurricane. It would have survived just fine if a large live oak branch didn't mess it up, but I still feel as though I might as well just rebuild it better than it was.
True craftsman. If you know and put out good craftsmanship, you can build almost anything.
🇺🇸💪🏻👊🏻🤙🏼

Thanks Jimbo!
Thanks for watching Jim M, Jimbo!
I'm just imagining the water pouring off your roof and into the neighbors lol. Great build.
lol thats what I thought lol
He should have put gutters @ end
If A kick ass french drain was installed it shpuld rip the rain out to the steet
Its pretty solid and neat. But why didn't you think of a gutter for this extension? 😁
Build it extra strong and build it once ...perfect job
Yup. I’m quite familiar with things getting out of hand and the over kill. Nice job. Looks beautiful Jimbo! I really like it.
Thanks for watching Japers, Jimbo!
Boy, Mrs Jimbo sure is a great woman. New toys coming, new shed, my wife would have done pinched my head off. Great project Jim.
Thanks for watching James, Yes she is a great Woman! And the new toys are going to be a gift!. Jimbos garage!
Jim, the structure you built might be overkill, but it turned out very nice.... and you certainly don't have to worry if it's strong enough. Nice work as usual.
Doing the same thing off a conex shop but used 1/3 the rafters and ran a few deck boards and screwed tin down boards.
Wow, really nice, wish I had the same. Not sure, but does that block wall need to move independently of your garage and roof, and could that cause a problem? Might want to keep an eye on it over the years...
That looks like it will work out great. I also put a metal roof on my carport because it doesn't have enough drop to it for shingles.
Thanks for watching Ken, Jimbos garage!
Always love your projects. The only concern I have with this one is the way the panels where installed. Looks beautiful but they are only supported along the edges and will most likely fail when the get a few years on them. Wish I was half the welder you are! Thanks for all the videos.
Hey Jimbo, you should use transparent/translucent acrylic sheets instead of metal sheets here - it would give you a lot of light that you are cutting off with the metal sheets.
Also rain noise
You probably got great neighbors! 😁
Very nice way to add a lot of extra storage!
Put doors on the front and back and everything is secure and safe. Nice job and the project turned out very well.
Thanks for watching Richard, I thought about it! Maybe later. Jimbos garage!
Great Job, but two things to consider: 1. trusses are too much, you could have put only one in every 8 feet and fill the rest with wood. This would have made your job much cheaper and much easier. (Not as good looking as this though) 2. Are all the rain going to neighbor's property? What do they say about it?
Square tube is 3x more expensive than angle iron
Very nice way to get it done
I'm fairly new to watching your videos and going back to some older ones, one thing for sure, you always do great work! Keep it up!
Really looks great. I agree with you - the structure looks very sound.
the work looks good except you never put a gutter on the end of that metal sheeting to keep the water from going in your neighbor's yard he may not appreciate that why most building codes will not let you build close to the property line.
Can't wait to see what new toys you're getting.
Looks great. noticed right away that you did the block work. projects that get out of control- story of my life LOL.
Thanks for watching, Yes one thing after another! $$$$ Jimbos garage!
i know you said the roofing material is light weight, but it's normally the wind uplift that will do the damage and i really don't think those screws are the correct fixings. Either way, good job and great video as always.

That is a super strong roof frame.
I bet the neighbours are pleased to have the extra rain run off from that roof, or is there a gutter set up on the boundary?
This should be a tv show
Nice video. Was hoping you was going to add block.
Nice...but what about drainage? Where's the rain water suppose to go?
came out very professional, just like everything else you build. Nice job 👏
Nice job. Does the rainwater drain against the block wall or over to your neighbors property?
Thanks for watching Max, It goes into and open field. But it never rains here in Southern California! Lol,Lol, Jimbos garage!
I was thinking the same thing :)
Great build as per normal Jimbo.
Sometimes the unplanned projects come out the best!
Honest , realistic and informative video - Thanks
where does the rain water from the awning roof go?
Looks good that's a serious amount of square tubing though probably pretty pricey!
Awesome Project Jimbo! Now you need to add some LED lighting and your set!
With that much metals you can probably add a deck above
Lol. That usually happens to me when I'm far into a project and a mistake happens . Then in order to save what I've done a reeeaaalllly over complicate the project .... I salvage it, but boy is it a pain in the rear end 😂😂
Only concerns I c r wind uplift and "wind tunneling" through there . Maybe a door or something to minimize?
On another note , nice job 👍
Thanks for watching Argo, Yes i'm always over budget! As for wind, It never blows over 10 mph here in Southern California. Lol,Lol, Jimbos garage!
What thickness did you use on the square tubing? Thinking about doing a similar project just not sure on thickness. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Enjoyed watching your video and great welding skills indeed. I kinda wonder for an awning this size do you need to include a gutter to channel the rain water?
You should have purlins and inside gutter with downspout
Looks awesome. Good shout on filling in the wall. Some corrugated plastic sheets would help get some light in, but if you're getting some lamps in anyway, why would you.
Did you seal the overlaps? I've worked of a few corrugated projects and if you don't seal the overlap moss get's under it and is a pain in arse to get out.
Great job! Didn't you consider to put polycarbonate sheets instead of metal? Then you would get some day light in your shed.
When it rain.. where is the water goes to your place or over the neighborhood? I think water be running all over your dirt
great build!i'm from Greece and i hope one day be like you!
That's a lot of work though it turns out very aesthetically pretty... I would have install far less rafters at ten feet intervals and run a couple of long purlin/battens to hold up the roofing sheets...
How did he painted metal portions that is facing the wall?? those parts will make a lot of rust.
Wheres the water supposed to drain to when it rains? No gutter at the end of the awning
Over kill? Carried away? Over built? You are not alone!!!
Boy you weren't kidding about over building it .. It's ready for some 1/2" plate at least.Very nice build and it's definitely given me some inspiration.
Did it cost 3x more because of the labor or are you only counting materials?
Thanks for watching Paul, The project just turned into a bigger one than a was hoping! Jimbos garage!
Time to run some power out there for lighting.
Hahaha ! Great Build ! Now you need to install lights and track hoist down the center
for the heavy items you'll store under there! : ) : )
As always, good job. Jimbo, you keep making my to-do list long and longer...
Thanks for watching Steve, Jimbos garage!
Roof was framed wrong . Supposed to have perpendicular members(purlins)to the rafters to accommodate and support corrigated sheets.But overall it was a decent job
We found our youtube expert. 😂
@ Dennis you can lead them to water but you can't make them drink... good call on the purlins.
Now when it rains it will flood your neighbors yard lol! Awesome
HI, can you please let me know all the materials used in this project? thanks!
Jumbo “bad neighbor” garage😂😂😂.. feel bad for the neighbor with all the rain going into their property now. I would be piss.
To be fair, maybe the other side where all the rain goes from the garage roof is still part of his property....
Looks damn good; considering it’s a weekend project you know
Jimbo, I just got here a few weeks ago and I really love your channel.
Thanks for watching, Jimbos garage!
Nice project, looks beautiful!
Good Job done. Bravo.
Turned out nice!!!
Why didn't you use steel sections? Could be put further apart. Anyway you should place a joist inthe middle of the corrugated panels, but that is just my opinion. You work different in usa
Can we usaully put roof sheet slope to the same-way with purlin. and how to screw it together.
Good job jimbo it's a nice space to have🖒🖒
Thanks for watching James, Jimbos garage!
Perfect work man
nice jimbo
you build some great projects, what are the make and model of the welders you use and why do you like them ? I am shopping for a new mig and I unsure which brand to buy.
Thanks for watching Brent, There are a lot of good machines out there, I have Htp and Everlast. I prefer the Htp pro Pulse 200. Jimbo!
Nice update my kids really like your channel
Awesome job!👍
Nice job
Weres is this film at. ??!?? T thought it was California ,,but doesn't rain outhere
Yup I enjoyed it and good job this ended up looking really nice
Looks great! Where does the rain drain off to?
Thanks for watching Tom, First of all it never rains here in Southern California, Lol,Lol, But it goes into an open field and then to a flood control channel. Jimbos garage!
I had the same thought but he has gutters on the house so it only has minimal water to carry.
Really nicely done
wondering same thing
JIMBO'S GARAGE 2019 rain says Hi
Awesome I'm going to do the same at my house
SHOW VIDEO ON HOW YOU ATTATCHED THE WOOD TO THE SIDE OF GARAGE FOR THIS ROOF BUILD.
What about using some pressure treated wood? Half the price and labor.I hope your neighbor is happy for the free water.
You do nice work Jim..
Boy I liked your garage
Did you do add on two the brick wall or did you hire outside ?
Jimbo you can park your truck on top of that damn thing
Excellent job
How thick is the square tubing you used? Thanks
I'd be worried about rodents or birds nesting on top of this under your shops eaves. I would have stopped the metal roofing at the fascia board , that would also help a lot with ventilation.
Is the block wall on your property line? Any problem with code set back requirements?
Thanks for watching, The wall is inside the property line, No set back problems!. Jimbos garage!
I think this is wron design!
When you pulled the original building permit for the shop was there a building setback requirement from the block wall/property line? If so, by attaching the awning to the building you are extending the structure into the setback. As you built it does this still satisfy the original setback requirement?
not often whether jumper? не часто ли перемычки?
Hello , just for me , what was your setting on your flux core welder ( wire feed and voltage )
Thanks , good job as usual
Thanks for watching, 26 volts, wire speed at about 450-485, This would be for 1/4'' thick material. Jimbos garage!
One by one tubing would've been sufficient and the vertical pieces didn't need to be that long? More space is always good
What did you use to paint it?
Should have stopped the block wall 1 course below & put box gutter to drain the rain water away....
Just found your channel. You make some great stuff, nice clean welds too
Earthquake proof!!!
What will happen during rain?
Was this permitted? Every city has requirements for a structure attached to a house. Shame if a neighbor complained.
How could he have something attached to the house built so close to the property line?
Thanks for the sharing, i really like your solution
Looks great ,Do you have estimate of what it cost you in material Jimbo I need to build one about 20' long x 10' wide and I'm in SoCal
Thanks for watching Gary, It was about $1,000 for the material, Mine was 50' long x 6'. Jimbos garage!
