I live in Amish country in Virginia and they shop at walmart, drive to the grocery store on tractors. When some of them go out they usually hide their clothing through beanies and jackets so its kind of odd to see them driving a tractor with all their winter gear on when its 80* outside. Good people, they keep to themselves and never cause any trouble. We also get charter buses full of them every summer at the local hotel. One year Im gonna ask them what they are doing.
I drive for the Amish here in Indiana. We had a tornado go through late one Friday night. Many Amish farms were hit, and many large buildings were destroyed. By the following Tuesday, every building was replaced by a new one, and some even had additional buildings added to their farms. This included siding, windows, and doors... excluding garage doors. Still some fences and small buildings to be dealt with, but these people don't waste a minute! They sent a couple hundred men from other Amish communities to help. It used to be that way when i was growing up... everyone helped everyone else. It is sad our communities don't do this anymore.
That's because they build them like s***. In this video is not Amish workers at all it's just a stolen content video. The Amish don't use cranes, nail guns, air compressors and drills
🙄 each Colony runs differently. They are not all 100% the same. It’s up to the elders of each colony; to decide what beliefs they want too believe and follow. Some are use power and use some modern conveniences. Some are strict as they were 150 yrs ago.
Imagine if the other 60% of America worked as hard without the need to be given handouts, held themselves accountable and stopped blaming others for their current situations.
To all the people saying they aren't true Amish, it totally depends upon the sect and their bishop as to how many and which modern conveniences they are allowed to use. They are typically allowed to use more modern tools for the purpose of business. I hope they did a good job, I live in the heart of Amish country, just cause they're fast doesn't necessarily mean good, there are definitely Amish crews that run around this valley who do shoddy work (some do very well)
Living in Texas we have Mennonites. I remember delivering a 10 section irrigation pivot system. They had that dam thing set up in like 2 days. I was like Holy cow
I used to hang out with and work for a former Mennonite. Met plenty of them, didnt understand what it was until i met him. He had a crew that seined commercial fish ponds. I was 16 and he had a guy get hurt and couldn't work. He asked me to help him out. First time i got in the truck i asked when his radio was stolen, they remove them lol. I can tell you they worked like hell was coming, i tried like hell to keep up. Was good money to 40 to run the pond and 40 to load. We could usually do both in a little over an hour. Used to knock out 10 a day, pretty dang good money for a highschool kid, and alot of good lessons learned.
@@cornfed123567I was just thinking this past week, Monday actually. How I was making 150-200 a day before taxes when I was 14-17 and now I’m making 50 an hour and can’t pay for shyt 😂😂😂 not really. But it’s just not enought
You got that right. I was working in NY drove by some land they were clearing one day, when I went past the next day they had built a house and a chicken coop.
Different types of Amish and Mennonite. Those are Amish of some kind. They do work like crazy. Some do fantastic work, some do shady work. Just like us.
They won’t miss a thing when society collapses they jus go as always they know how to survive without our utilities I live like that for 7 years and it was an experience that was some what comfortable I missed McDonald’s and traffic in Houston go figure.
Amish are weird like that. We went to my distant cousins farm who was Amish and heard the whole way about no electricity, no cars etc. Got there and they had newer cars than us plus buggies along with the biggest TV I ever seen that we weren't allowed to watch with satellite dish. They had 2 big lazyboy recliners in front of it. The pig roast was probably best food I've ever eaten in my life though.
@@koDaffi Many Amish are rich and they sell wares are a premiuim because people some how think its better. For example you can buy Amish pints of jam for 7 plus dollars when it cost less than 1 dollar to make and buy the jars. Keep in mind the amish who make jelly buy pallets and pallets of jars and lids for a fraction of what you would if you bought a case. They also buy tons of sugar and tons of what ever they are going to can. They sell this to people at a massive mark up. I can a lot and can put up 100 jars of jelly using my kitchen. Imagine what they use and how many more people they have helping, Even after paying them a good wage they make bank. The same thing goes with pretty much anything else the amish make and sell. Keep in mind most amish are educated no more than just before highschool. Yet they know how to get the worldly people to pay big money. As for these construction crews because they work with a lot more people they can do all the work needed in a day rather than several days as a normal crew would and it still cost the same high price. The Amish work mostly for cash and taxes that they do pay do not include SS and medicare. Nor do they pay unemployment, workers comp or anything else that a normal company would have.
No one builds faster or better than a group of Amish. When I was 16 I worked for an ex Amish man in his seventies framing houses. He worked circles around the rest of us. I've haven't seen that kind of non stop work since. Yearsvlater I had a deck building co. And I used the Amish to build gazebos. It would take me a week to do what they did in a day and their labor wasn't expensive.
I framed houses and compete with a crew of Mennonite it's hard to keep up with a 15 man crew that has two lifts especially since my Guy's expect to get paid on Friday and won't work from 6:00 am to 9:00 pm.
As people have said before, its entirely on which sect of amish. Some are reald old world and wont allow it, others will for business purposes. I grew up in the flx in ny, there seems to be a good mix of both sides around that area.
That’s like saying your vegetarian and then hiring someone to drip iv pork. U not a vegetarian, and u not Amish. Besides all those people and nail guns. Not built by the Amish just normal people lol
Amish dudes are like anyone else now. Cell phones, trucks, heavy equipment, working for outside world. They aren't even Amish anymore. Not where I live at least.
Hard working people. And for a building this size they are smart enough not to try and pour that big of a slab by pouring concrete from a wheel barrow! We lived near a community of these people in Texas. They had 2 of the largest dairies in the country at the time. When they worked their shift and went home they parked the work trucks and broke out the buggies and bicycles. Good people without a doubt!
I've lived in Amish country my whole life. I've found them to be very hit or miss people. Some of them do the best work in the world and others might as well be monkeys with suspenders
Well I mean if your gonna use a zoom boom and nail guns your just another framing crew except one crew isn’t paying taxes or insurance or compo or or or
Iirc their philosophy is that they don't use tech that doesn't outright and solely benefit their community. I haven't seen em use power tools before this either but I suppose I wasn't looking. Maybe they're using old black and deckers from the 70s to try and ride the line lol
They dont charge like a union company. They also don't pay most of the help. Their mostly family members and are doing the daily chores if you will. That is why theres so many on the job site.
True, one job site I was on, they had "apprentices" working, 14+. They moved over to another site, on a state highway, and Osha nailed them, they packed up the buggy and left town, never to be seen again. The fine was quite large. I'm sure the apprentices were not around when the inspector was there........
Hope is amazing build don’t come to blaze like so many others have They burn down for no reason other then the government wants control of the food supply
I've lived around Lancaster PA all my life so the Amish is just a normal thing. I always thought it was weird how people drive cross country to see these people
I saw an Amish Dad and teenage daughter put a barn up in 1 week. Just amazing, they are allowed to use tools but must not own them. They have to rent or use someone else's.
You'll never have to rebuild again. They are amazing workers. When this is done in their communities their women put on the most amazing feed . So delicious. God bless us all.

The Amish/ Mennonite community are very hard workers. They raised a barn roof on an Amish auction after a tornado tore it off , took them 1 day. It's a mega barn. Basically as big as a super Walmart. It was in Indiana. Awesome to watch.
I just wired up Three hog barns for Tosh pork in Middletown Kentucky. The biggest one was 496 ' long abd 250 ' wide. It was a massive undertaking for the small electrical company contractor i worked for at the time.

Because it's not a community anymore. It's a big city that you you are always getting a new neighbor in every, months or so
Is that an Amish crane? 😂
And Amish nail guns and compressors
💀
Don’t worry there’s a few dudes in the engine bay running in hamster wheels to power it

They aren’t… They’re Mennonite…
The Amish are only Amish if money isn't involved 😂 Found that out fast
Built in half the time with half the nails
Yea if it is convenient to them they conform. They wont shower once a week but they'll use man lifts lol
I don’t care what order they’re from hard-working men deserve respect and that’s all I got to say about the whole thing
It's bullshit they don't pay taxes like the rest of us
Let them bless us with some tax money, like equal Americans who enjoy religious freedom.
They work as hard as every other construction worker.
@@aweezywun Yes, I agree all religions should pay taxes in the US especially since certain ones have become so political.

They built my moms house after it burnt down during the bastrop fires. They did decent work
You live in Seminole Tx?
Those Amish are cheating using modern technology 😂
They are not cheating! Some sects and bishops are more modern in their thinking and views. Not all of them still follow the old orders.
You got that right. I was working in NY drove by some land they were clearing one day, when I went past the next day they had built a house and a chicken coop.
They are truly hard workers
They do know how to build and set up a barn!
Different types of Amish and Mennonite. Those are Amish of some kind. They do work like crazy. Some do fantastic work, some do shady work. Just like us.
Why did the Amish girl get kicked out of the church?
Two Mennonite. 😮😅😊
Never even seen or met a Amish person, but I don't recall seeing a homeless Amish person on utube, haven't seen one with a mullet doing dodgy shit 😂😂
I wanna sign up to be Amish n get the new barn 3 cows and a child bride.
Mennonite's are Christians, Amish are not!
I watched them build a new Menards in my town and they were amazing. No messing around or wasted material just good O’L hardwork and dedication. 😊
Sturdiest menards ever built id bet
They won’t miss a thing when society collapses they jus go as always they know how to survive without our utilities I live like that for 7 years and it was an experience that was some what comfortable I missed McDonald’s and traffic in Houston go figure.
That is awesome Menards gave them the contract
These are Mennonite Amish not true amish
I see they’re using some modern technology!! Thought that was against their religion!! lol
They have Mennonites run machinery, or people who are not Amish...
They are only amish in front of their family.
They built the 2 story garage here at the house in 3 days. They are incredibly hard working and as friendly and polite as you could ask for.
It looks like they are using a crane ? Isn't machinery like that against their principles?
Mennonite
Typical Amish ,every modern convenience except safety harness and hard hats.
Amish nail guns....😢....but Amish working on a....."peak roof😮...."
Is that a amish crane passing wood to the roof?
Might be. They will use gas and electric devices if they are provided on site but won't bring it themselves.
@Kurai1 depending on sect
Yup , Amish crane , Amish nail guns and Amish compressors also apparently 🤣🤣🤣🤣

What's that big metal contraption they are using to lift that?! Nope, that's too worldly to be traditional Amish.
I massively respect the Amish, nicest people I've ever met
Thats not very amish. It has a diesel engine on it. Lmfao
The Amish are amazing carpenters . They do excellent work and when they work they work.
If you were buying a structure and you had a choice. One the Amish built or anyone else. What would be your choice and why?

THERE IS AMISH WHERE I LIVE AN ITS -40 SOMETIMES. AN THEY GOT NO POWER. AN NO HEAT IN THE HORSE AN BUGGY OR OUTHOUSE. 😇🙏
Was brilliant to see some of the construction.
That time lapse looks amazing. I don't know about sects of Amish or whatever, but the work looks outstanding.
What great hard working people, whoever they are. Nice job!
That's not time lapse. Haven't you seen the family guy episode when Peter goes to war with the Amish?
They are all starting to convert lol . they use battery tools and have electric outlets it may not be many but they do have em .
Amish are great people they just need to admit that it's okay to use god-given advancements
100% agree. Good things come from the brains of his flock. It’s a shame to waste the talent.
If anything they are Mennonite and definitely not Amish
Ah yes the amish who.... use a crane? Come onnnn!!!
Runs on diesel, that is not worldly 😅
They will actually use the equipment you provide but won't bring anything of that nature themselves.
@Adrian Guirola so do cars So why the Horse drawn buggies
As people have said before, its entirely on which sect of amish. Some are reald old world and wont allow it, others will for business purposes. I grew up in the flx in ny, there seems to be a good mix of both sides around that area.
I see power tools and power equipment...hmmm😮😮😮..looks like somebody is cheating and lying
Nobody understands that the Amish church is allowed to hire a crane operator. No Amish person is using the crane.
That’s like saying your vegetarian and then hiring someone to drip iv pork. U not a vegetarian, and u not Amish. Besides all those people and nail guns. Not built by the Amish just normal people lol

Fake Amish
Amish don't play.
Local amish near me do it all in one day with no crane or pneumatic nailers....
Watch Real old school AMISH Do barn without a CRANE and rafters, beams etc made with dove tail joints and wooden pins for fasteners.
I respect them greatly as they take great pride in their work and do amazing things.
So confused, Amish people using power equipment and driving vehicles and cranes. How is it any different than normal people??
I build those for a living good to see them in their new home

I guess as soon as they figured they needed them.
@@diegomurillo2194 If that is their thought process they are completely useless

D*** the homish got some new tools. I compressors .guns. crane. I thought I was gonna see some hand raising Done on this video
What up with the crane? Am I missing something??
I've lived in Amish country my whole life. I've found them to be very hit or miss people. Some of them do the best work in the world and others might as well be monkeys with suspenders
Amish have been the best immigrants the country ever got
I love their work ethic.
My passion for hog barns is unfathomable!
Even Amish can't live without capitalism... 👌🏼
Like a well-oiled machine, nobody needs to be told what to do, yet everyone is working.
Well I mean if your gonna use a zoom boom and nail guns your just another framing crew except one crew isn’t paying taxes or insurance or compo or or or
All that wood was cut by machine!!!!!!!
And your point is? All wood is cut by machine. Most amish are allowed to use machinery powered by diesel generators.
Lot of power tools there… more convenient, I assume was the conclusion
I thought amish weren't into power tool's
Iirc their philosophy is that they don't use tech that doesn't outright and solely benefit their community. I haven't seen em use power tools before this either but I suppose I wasn't looking. Maybe they're using old black and deckers from the 70s to try and ride the line lol
Crane?
I didn't read the other comments first. And it looks like everyone saw and thought it. Now I feel better 😊
Your mistake was waiting for the sun to come up. 😅
I love how they choose just how much worldy tech is acceptable using lift booms, air compressors, and nail guns 😂
They dont charge like a union company. They also don't pay most of the help. Their mostly family members and are doing the daily chores if you will. That is why theres so many on the job site.
True, one job site I was on, they had "apprentices" working, 14+. They moved over to another site, on a state highway, and Osha nailed them, they packed up the buggy and left town, never to be seen again. The fine was quite large. I'm sure the apprentices were not around when the inspector was there........
Since when do the Amish have corded hammers?
WTF What is that modern world crane doing there?
And they are using pneumatic staplers.
These are not Amish they are just contractors.
