I’ve been a garage door installer/technician for over 20 years and I’ve been in hundreds of cookie cutter garages frames exactly like this. It’s strong. It’s efficient. And yes you could frame it 16 O.C. On the roof and rafters but there really is no need. This is a badass garage and plenty strong!! Doing this all one man shows you are skilled and have a great routine down! 👏🏼
I'm in the industry . Done a ton of framing , mostly doing commercial / industrial concrete now . I have done a lot of tasks alone simply because my laborer didn't show up but to plan on always doing everything by yourself is commendable.
I've been in the trades as a carpenter for a long time ,and still going. Your workmanship and pride will keep you busy for a long time. It's a pleasure to see a craftsman doing a good job. I know you've called your hammer a "pink hammer" but I still prefer a Estwing straight claw. This saved my butt a couple times from sliding off a roof. Keep setting the good examples .
Great job. I followed along pretty good. I was amazed that you did the metal work too. I did freak when you were walking along the top sill plate. 😲 I thought oh hell no for me. 😅
Always great to see you taking on large projects single handedly I can't imagine anyone finding something you did wrong I've seen guys make more mistakes or cut corners working with a full crew
46:54 - Yes, I would like that from my neighbors! Dandelion patches are beneficial for bees and other pollinating creatures. Also, great work on that garage.
I love to watch how everything is done, I'm a big fan of building small houses and garage that only one person to do it all. If you have all the knowledge, experience and the right tools nothing is can't be done and adding that kind of chill vibe looks so fun.
@@MyDIYAdventures Jesus, I have heard quotes for it being done by a crew for 35. Also I see a lot of people talk total price, but what about financing. How are you affording 35k? Do you get a bank loan? Remortgage the property? Edit: Ah you aren't making this for you, I thought from the DIY title that this was your home.
Nice job. I love all the neat little tricks you used to complete this by yourself. I was like, I want to see him get that big header up there by himself and you did.
I wish you had left the camera running when you put the first of the rafters up. I would like to have seen how you do it alone. Great vid. The studs in the concrete and holes in the plates....thanks for that !

Your the man of one man craftsmanship. A hell of a job!! I enjoyed watching it, I'm not in the industry but I'd love to make my own garage and repair my house.

Nice job on the whole build. I do like to see a person take pride in there work. You are a true craftsman and very highly skilled at what you do. I came across your channel two days ago as I am building my own shop here in the UK. Nothing as huge as the one you're doing. I just wanted some extra guidance with a few things and you have done that for me with all your great coverage. Thank you buddy for all your build videos you have done as it has helped me a lot. I have also subscribed to your channel. Thank you, Take care be safe and God Bless to you and your Family. 🙏
Beautiful Work with that "pink" hardware store hammer! 😁🔨 I wish I'd met you or someone like you 30 years ago, I'd have worked for free to learn from a master like yourself! I'm very impressed young "Herculean" man! God bless you!
You come across a video that inspires you every once in a while. This is one. Good job my guy. I was looking at pricing a contractor to build a shop. I think I can do this.
You’re way too hard on yourself. You did an excellent job and I really enjoyed watching it. I know it was an hour long but I didn’t mind. Keep up the great work.
I'm a brick contractor and I've had to work alone on several occasions. Luckily, I never got hurt on the job while alone but you never know! You're only one accident away from ruining yourself! But the show needs to keep moving, what more can a man do?!
"Check for square", so much more accurate than 345. Ok this Wayne getting ready for a DIY garage build. Slab will be done by someone else. Thanks for the education. I'll keep watching.
I'm a diesel mechanic by trade. I can build an engine with no guidance, but i can't tie a neck tie. 😐 This was a masterclass of building a garage. I wish i could build one that would support an automotive lift. Then i could live my Fast & Furious dreams. 💪🏆
@@MyDIYAdventures I'll surely check this out. I currently own a home that has doubled in value. It has a 2 car garage, but with 2 cars, a motorcycle, tool box and shelves in one side and a 96 3/4" ceiling, i cannot work on my vehicles like i want to. I'm looking into having a house built, to my specs, that includes an ultra garage. Thanks for your reply🏆💪
Great idea / I would think the bigger door should open on the other side / so the small door goes to bed side / in and out of bed easier while open / but great idea thanks
For some reason on the large garage door header I thought you’d put the circus music in. :) good work. I work alone as well. Mainly decks and smaller renovations.
I don't know if it's my audio setup, or your mic, but I figured I'd comment and let you know that your balance might be towards the right side in the intro. Looks like a solid vid thus far, super excited to watch :o
i would have liked to see more brake work. Also, you must be a math wizard to knock out the eaves without a lot of waste. I'd like to know how you figured the cutting of the eves

Doing a fine job. I see nothing wrong with that shop. Only that it's not in my yard. God Bless
Many thanks!
Its warming to see some people out there still take pride in their work. Great job sir.
Much appreciated!
I second that..👍
You did an excellent job of showing all the things that a lot of builders don't take the time to explain to us. Thank you for your time for all of us.
Glad it was helpful!

I know you've called your hammer a "pink hammer" but I still prefer a Estwing straight claw. This saved my butt a couple times from sliding off a roof.
Keep setting the good examples .
If you use an Estwing you must be from the midwest or northeast. On the west coast nothin but Dalluge wood-handled hammers.
My framer is wood handled, a Kobalt I got from Lowes a million years ago
You, & Ken's Karpentry are my favorite TH-cam channels to watch
Great job. I followed along pretty good. I was amazed that you did the metal work too. I did freak when you were walking along the top sill plate. 😲 I thought oh hell no for me. 😅
@tomdehaven3445 that’s quite an honor to be mentioned alongside Ken! Thank you!
I watch RR Buildings, Perkins Builder Brothers, Ken's Carpentry, and no just discovered MyDIYadventures!
little pink hammer? I think that's the answer you're looking for! Great video, great work.
Your hammer you’ve owned for a million years that has saved you so many times!
Thanks for the video
Always great to see you taking on large projects single handedly I can't imagine anyone finding something you did wrong I've seen guys make more mistakes or cut corners working with a full crew
I learn something every time I watch one of your videos. I can’t imagine building this by myself. It was “pink hammer”!
Awesome! Keep up the great work. Clean work site , helps with focus having a clean site.
It definitely does! If I don’t stay half way organized at least at the end of the day, my ADD gets triggered LOL
Man this guy is a pro. He makes it look easy and we know its not. Lots of experience shown in this build.
46:54 - Yes, I would like that from my neighbors! Dandelion patches are beneficial for bees and other pollinating creatures. Also, great work on that garage.
I agree with you, but in my suburban neighborhood, you’ll get shunned for having dandelions LOL
@@MyDIYAdventures Dandelion Root has many benefits. They are not a weed.
Man I'm over here building a 6x8 chicken coop and 16 foot run in like 8 days and this guy solo's a whole garage lol, damn
I’ve had a lot of practice!

Nice work, I enjoyed the comments along the way. It looks very straight and clean!
Watching people like you makes me wish my father was still with me as I need a garage made
But you're inspiring me try and do it myself!
Ty❤
Best of luck!
What would something like this cost?
@@twistedinternals1234 with all the concrete, it was easily $35k

I'm setting here thinking the Same Bro! I swear to you, Just before i read your Comment.
Love to see more garage builds in detail. Especially cutting angles for roof.
More to come!
Yeah that's the only part he didn't show us the pitch on rafters. Next time I guess ❤
I’ve got a couple rafter videos, better yet, I’m sure there’s rafter videos out there that explain things way better than I can!
You Sir are Simply Amazing!! Love watching your Builds. Keep up the Great Work and keep your followers INTRIGUED!!
Thanks, will do!

Hey that door trim looks very nice..and the tape is a great touch
Pink hammer lol great work! Watched the whole thing. Love how there's no extra music and talking, all informative.

Excellent and inspiring. Thank you for some golden knowledge.

Awesome video. Thanks for showing us your process.
My pleasure!
looking awesome
dont listen to the hater most people cant do what you can do let alone by yourself great job keep it up
I enjoy pushing the hater’s buttons😂
All that concrete but there's none outside the rear overhead door. Amazing job building a structure flying solo!
Yeah, I’m not sure why the customer didn’t want a small approach poured in the back🤷♂️
@@MyDIYAdventures Aren't you the customer?
Yep. Keep it up. You're gonna be purty good at this stuff some day.
I hope so!
Very Nice!!! Congratulation!
Great video man. Garage looks really good. I learned a lot. Thanks!
thought you were going to have some monster compressor to run. I wouldn't have worried about it either. Great vid.
Nope, just a little pancake compressor!
Thanks for the laughs. 😂 Enjoyed it when you kept posing on the ladder during the timelapse.

Awesome work! You make it look easy, I might try and build myself a garage.
You can do it!
I watched the whole thing , great job for one guy!! I dont remember the hammer name, but you done a faboulous job!!! Its like a jiant puzzel.
Awesome Job!! Fast for a 1 man army!!
Thanks! I wish I could move even quicker, but I’m an old man🤷♂️😂

Those Canadian guys use the 345 method. If they would try the corner to corner measurements.
Its like "try it youll like it".
