  • When you are on a farm, you get used to being CREATIVE when getting a job done . . . so of course when it came to building our basement walls and STANDING THEM UP, we got CREATIVE and re-purposed our hay equipment!
    So far, it's working GREAT! Today we are slamming out the rear MAIN SUPPORTING WALL and HOPING our builder will LOVE IT when he arrives next week . . . but IS it correct?
    Erik walks through a bit of advice with how to frame windows and doors when building a wall, and we discuss a bit on local building codes regarding exterior walls in basements.

    Welcome to This Life We Live ( This 1 Life We Live ) formerly the WTFarm Girl channel.
    Subscribe and follow along as we build our DREAM HOME after 10 long years of saving and waiting! It's a barndominium house plan with a shed style roof. It's a barndominium hybrid, so it's stick-built and on a basement because here in Michigan we get a LOT of tornadoes!
    We'd LOVE to build it fully from the ground up, but sadly our local township only allowed us TWO YEARS to fully complete our home, so it's a race against time to try to get everything done BOTH with professional help AND on our own!
    Building half of it on our own allows us a MASSIVE savings with our budget and makes this unique home design actually affordable!
    We started with a low cost floor plan, to make this an affordable barndominium and learned how to save money on a house build.
    We have some fantastic ways to save money on a new house and easy DIY home design tips!
    This is going to be the coolest house on TH-cam by the time it's complete!
    If you have suggestions or ideas, we'd love to hear them!

    You need 3 times as many supports to protect the walls from high winds. Prop from BOTH Sides. Drive a 2x4 deep into the ground and anchor the supports at 45°.on the outside of wall framing. Perhaps leave tractor and FEL in place tied off for the next couple days of Beryl TD. Most homes have double headers over doors and always double Sill plates. Do you intend to drill through the bottom plate(s) and then drill 5/8" Anchor bolts in the Concrete? Codes differ. Install lots of Hurricane Clips before drywall/siding. Closed Cell Spray foam Insulation? Use a string line to align Wall Sections.

    My dream for several decades was to have a hobby farm with a pole barn for storage and building things. Because of Lyme disease my income has been too small so I’ve been renting storage instead. I’ve been at my current storage 22 years. The lady who owns it is in her middle 80’s and I’ll probably have to find another place once she is no longer with us.

      Are you able to have a shipping container brought in for your property? They can be a bit better cost wise than building sometimes :) Ours cost us a bit under $4,000 and has been a life saver!

    Bad idea of not informing your builder that you started early.By not informing him, it could impact his plans.I'm sure he had a schedule as to what is done when such as electrical, plumbing, building inspection.Im sure he scheduled other jobs around yours. Just hope you didn't screw up your builder's schedule

    • @This1LifeWeLive

      He was actually 4 weeks late starting our job, so our roof trusses had been sitting outside for a month molding away. I fully understand your concern though :) By getting the basement done it saved him about 2 weeks of time PLUS paying his crew for their labor. We had to schedule the other trades because we are the GC. He is contracted out to shell in the house :)
