Really enjoying this build - we are just at the horrid groundworks phase so this gives me hope and the way you are building is very inspiring for sure 👍🏻
Looks like you are taking on progressively bigger sections as you go along! You should arrange a factory visit to James Jones - I'm sure the production process would be really interesting! 😁 (Oh, and you would get the chance of a wee holiday to the Moray coast - BTW it's beautiful! And there are also a few distilleries...)
Hi Tim, loooong time follower, I just wonder if you wake up in the night stressing over how much everything costs in this build? It must be mind boggling!
Awesome work! Is that the same Hikoki framing gun you've had in much older videos? it's lasted well - any particular brand you prefer cost wise that work well with it? 😎
Genuine question Tim... What are the benefits of these joists over effectively a double skin of standard 2x4s? Seems like you could make the cavity 300 or more, webbing wouldn't be in the way of services and there would be no thermal bridging...
Good question. Double stud is an option but usually framed as a Larson truss anyway I believe. Not sure I would want 5m high standard studs so easier to just frame one wall instead of two and have a super straight strong wall. No services anywhere in wall as all run inside service cavity. With 300mm of insulation apparently the 9mm osb is all but ‘neutralised’ as a thermal bridge. 👍
Hi Tim, I’ve just got a barn myself to convert…. I’m going a very similar approach to you. Is there anyway I can contact you with a few questions? All the best 😁
I’ve been watching for years…. The skill set and knowledge you have now to when you started is in line with how this channel has grown?! Well done to you all.
Just wondering if there was a detail or consideration for deflection of the steel roof truss under snow load onto the timber framing top plate and subsequently through the wall framing?
Wall has been designed to take the load of the roof or at least add to the strength of the steel rafters. We have done that under all the internal steel frame as well hence why there are footings for structural stud walls between the rooms.
Do you know if you can build a wall with these I studs by fitting a sole plate, top plate and then fitting the studs in between??? It seems to be the method carpenters choose for internal stud walls AFAIK, which isn't that far admittedly :).
Yes either works, we have done both methods. Just easier to get the top plate up fixed to studs rather than floating around while trying to fix it to steels.
You are very trusting of the nail gun holding the stud so close to the plates

So nice to be out of the ground at last. Keep pushing on. 👍
Nice system .
@14:25 Buster Keaton would be impressed! 😀
Coming along nicely Tim should be proud of yourself can’t wait for next video

Exactly the same. I will get the old one fixed but couldnt afford a delay. Great 'bang' for buck really. Heavy though!
Should be putting rigid foam foam between the osb webbing and the door Framing also in the headers.
Cool 😎
DPL to the DPC to the LVL. Bones of a rap there!
Ooooo shiny!!!! A lovely new shiny nail gun.......
Good spot. Exact same gun just cleaner. 😂
Looking mighty fine👀

@ no trouble. Email in description.
Another great video 👍 Just slightly worrying how close your hand is to the nailer for the initial fix. Only takes 1 nail to skew out ... ouch!
He's got a USA framing beard for this one folks !
Got to keep warm somehow! Certainly not growing on my head. 😂

Nearly a close call with the packing for the door. That could have been interesting. Lots of progress. Keep on truckin. 👍
Protective ear defenders for cutting but no eye protection when nailing.
Can't quite believe nails are enough! Looking g good

@@TheRestorationCouple Just a bit! Guess my idea of using double sided tape to hold it up might need a re-think then.
I would treat that near miss as a warning. Wear head protection.
I think you will have put a tracker on each of your children so you might be able to find them when you move in if they try and hide from you. 😅😅
Growing a U.S Woodbutchers beard. Give it a year or so to reach the correct length.
All looking brilliant Tim ... but please get some safety glasses on when using the nailer.. you only have one pair of eyes .. look after them
👊👍
😀😃😄😁😆😊🫠🙃🙂
Timber , that was close 😂😬
double stud walls = a much warmer house...
They have 40mm MDF on the outside, a very low U value can be achieved in different ways.
@@dannymurphy1779 benefits of double stud walls... sound deadening, comfort, bracing, wiring, plumbing, energy efficient, strength...
keep your spare hand away from that nailer. its hurts when they skew out trust me
you never know when something is going to fall on your head...
CDX crap I’d rather not have a house than one built with wood chips and glue. Total death trap for firefighters
🤣🤣🤣
Is the great extent of that wall 🧱 is it strong enough when we get real strong winds it won't buckle in ?
