I am always in awe when I watch these videos. Its like watching superman do his thing. If the world had more of this man, it would be a much much better place.
just subscribed, watched a few videos during a fit of insomnia. Im trying to purchase an existing post and beam 40'X60" barn. I planned om finishing half of it and having 30X40 barn/garage under existing roof. I had my doubts......like you I have electrical and HVAC experience. Also carpentry kmowledge.....brothers in the trade. I can do this! I swear god made me find this video. thanks for the inspiration. You are the man. incredible design and skills. favorite part was your daughters helping daddy raise the wall. god bless you man.
Thank you so much for your comment! Appreciate the support. Feel free to reach out if you have questions about your project and we would love to see updates.
My wife and I have always wanted to do this. We sold our home and our three kids have been living in a camper for the last 6 months. Frankly, it scares the hell out of me to try this. I have no where near your skill level but I can hold my own. I guess it’s just taking the plunge into a project of this scale. Watching you do this is helping me wrap my mind around the possibilities. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching! It's definitely a huge undertaking. But we hear from lots of people that do parts of their build too... everything you do yourself saves money!
Really appreciate your hard work. If this couldn't stop you, I believe nothing will. It was few months back when I first saw you installing foundations, and now everything has changed so beautifully, cant wait to see it finally completed..
This is magnificent, Paul. You're such an inspiration! Your hard work and determination encouraged and inspired us all! Seeing all these frames took place really putting us in perspective how vast you had accomplished! Look forward to many more updates, Paul!!
I really like your choice of music you put on this video. It hits just the right tone of expectation and exhilaration. Well done. Also, I watch your videos, not because in about to build my own version of your house, but because you are informative and generous with your information and knowledge. Thanks. And well done with everything you have built so far.
Just came across this video. I'm in the middle of a remodel and this video made me realize what a slug I've been about it. This is just what I needed for inspiration. Absolute beast mode. I was watching the shirt changes to see how much got done in one day. Subscribed.
It was nice to see it all together- it becomes more obvious that you had an order and a system going, or you are also a consummate editor- I run to the thought that you always had a strategy. Loved having the kids in- a memory for a lifetime.
Truly amazing job Paul !!! The fact that you basically built such a large house by yourself is mind-boggling !!! I can't wait for that moment. The moment when all is said and done and you get to sit back/relax with a cup of coffee or beer and admire all that you have built while watching your children play. Recording and especially editing all these videos must've truly added time to your build. Thank you so so much for taking the time out to record, edit and share this part of your life with us. In the next few decades, don't forget to remind the wife and the kids that you built this damn house, lol! I know I would :) Wish I could have that beer with you! Keep up the great work !!!
Your are an awesome Man!!! Your kids will never forget what you have done!!! Keep up the great work, love your video, I always look forward to all the hard work you do!!! God bless!!!
Impressive, you are a building machine. I truly enjoy watching the progress and I am impressed with your professionalism and attention to detail. I would like to add that you make my knees hurt though, I have to wear pad, you must be one of the lucky guys who can handle it. Thanks for all you do and for sharing your project.
Watching these videos, especially the fact you have been doing it alone has really inspired me. Persistence and resilience at it's finest. Can't wait to send when it's done.....
I always amazed to your video sir because the house you build is perfectly amazing. The process is very easy even I don't know how to do it.. I always praying that someday I can build my own house like what you do, the thing that I like so much is you build a house made of wood I love the framing... I hope someday god will provide me a home like this ... Your my idol sir .. for now I work just to cater my needs I work hard and maybe some day you help me with my dream come true.... Thank you sir
Sitting here watching this build and all I keep saying is where do I know this voice from. . Then it hits me holy crap Paul Marshall from Midwest Whitetail AKA (The Skinny Pinch) You and Scott had a captive audience back in the day.!!! Awesome to see you doing so well . Congratulations on that Beautiful home and best of luck to you and Family
I am just sitting here at the hospital getting an iron infusion. They check my temp, blood pressure every 30 minutes. Watching this just calms me. Last BP was 98/68. Look what you are doing for my health. Infusion will be done in an hour. After that I go to work at my at a different hospital. I am sure my blood pressure will go back up.
Been watching your all your videos many times, its inspires me to look further, what seems impossible is actually possible with knowledge and hardwork. Some of them really conveying great tips on building a house. I dream of building my own house soon, but not yet able to do so. The economy is bad as it is now. Been out of Job for almost 5 month. Good luck for you in finishing your house, keep making vidoes. Take care Man, you are an awesome person.
It was kind of funny when Paul was kicking the bottom end of a wall at 13:48, with his shoes on to get the wall placed correctly along his chalk line, but his little barefoot daughter saw him doing that and she started kicking the same wood with her bare feet!
A bit like I prefer `actual` rather than "abstract", I prefer`real time` rather than `timelapse`. Just my individual taste really. You do both in your videos, they are both enjoyable to watch though. Thanks Paul and good luck.
Danm! You really frame the whole house by yourself. A lot of TH-cam’s make a look like they do, but they really don’t. Congrats!!! Are you going to use open cell insulation on ceiling? You might also want to put open cell insulation on the walls so the walls don’t sound empty when you knock on them. DO NOT use batting insulation or blow insulation on the walls or ceiling. I would really hate to see that on the build.
Amazing progress! I really feel like doing something similar after watching your videos! Just out of curiosity, how thick will the insulation in the outer walls be?
Thanks Paul! Fun to watch it all come together. Some really great shots that weren’t included in other videos. I may have missed this but how do you ensure your second floor / first floor top plates were going to be level? Did you assume the concrete slab was perfectly level or did you use your laser level and I missed that detail.
Paul when cutting those bridal joints on those 8x8s, why not cut as deep as you can on each side with the skill saw then take the chain saw to it. The skillsaw kerf will help keep the chainsaw square.
Thanks for sharing! Man you are fun to watch. Are you planning on doing a breakdown of the costs at the end like you did after you were dried in ? I am inspired, thank you... I’m going to hate seeing this project end
After watching this video, I am totally exhausted. You are truly amazing. One man show. How long did it actually take you to do all the work in this particular video? Thank for sharing and for all you do. Take your time though because I want to watch you videos for a long time.
Thank you for the video, Respect!! I want to build my house by myself too. What would be good sources to learn basic carpentry and have information other than your TH-cam Channel? :)
We're working hard on our website to make it a good searchable resource. Other places would be RR Buildings if you want additional post frame construction content.
You technically don't need plywood on roof/sides with this type of construction. The metal does provide strength, and the spray foam also adds to it. Looking back we would probably do the roof only to make it easier when running pipes through it, etc.
This might be a big ask, but could we see your blueprints for this build? Its overwhelming to see all this work. Id also like to appreciate the thought process of it.
I was wondering... have you considered using resilient channels, at least for the ceiling on the first floor? They would help impede the transmission of sound from the top floor by separating the sheetrock from the joists. You would screw the channels to the joists, and then screw the sheetrock to the channels only in the spaces between the joists. It is an easy process with good payoffs in dampening sound transmission.
@@MrPostFrame Well, if you decide to use them on the walls too, just remember that the mounting bracket is on the *bottom.* That makes the sheetrock hang off of the studs, as they're designed to do to provide that break. Too many people make the mistake of installing them upside down (entirely short circuiting their purpose and making them useless) because the correct way _seems_ counterintuitive. But it doesn't matter on the ceiling. 👍
My wife and I are dreaming of building a 30x60 pole barndo. This has been a lot of help. We live in Southwest Minnesota would you come up here to build
Question, if a post frame home is different from stick frame homes, why did you put headers over your windows? I thought there wouldn't be any load bearing down on the windows.
what's the budget on this project? what did you save by completing it on your own? How is the durability and will banks finance these with a home mortgage. sorry for all the questions. love the house!
We are not done yet. There is a cost video on my channel breaking everything down. An updated cost video will be coming out soon. There is also a video about financing a post frame home on our channel too.
Yes 3" of closed cell spray foam. No OSB on side walls, but we do add OSB to our roof. Metal gives the sidewall it's shear strength which means no need for OSB.
The little girl copying after seeing dad kick the wall into position is great. NOT one cup of splosh delivered to you whilst grafting..... Have a word. Great video, awesome job, only problem I have is I feel Super lazy now. Who can thumbs this down other than jealous people? I love to see people succeed even if they are doing way better than me, they are setting an example for the likes of me.
who designed the interior framing? could you do a video telling us how we would go about designing rooms and features with structural information, what nails bolts wood thickness etc to use to get good enough rooms, also sound and heat and all that.

Who doesn't love a good timelapse! So relaxing and satisfying to watch. Thanks man :)
Thank you for watching!
I couldn't help but smile as I watch you building a dream for your family. The kids watching and helping will be something they will always remember.
Thank you!
Good thing you had your two girls to help you lift that wall. Love watching kids helping.

Wow, Paul...just WOW. Incredible productivity and work ethic. Amazing what 1 man can do, when he has the ability and motivation.
Thank you so much! Appreciate your comment.
Beside the sheer size of the house I find that you do the building mostly by yourself the most fascinating. Amazing work!
Thank you very much!

13:40 brought a little tear to my eye. Dads live for that.
You are a true craftsman. Beautiful job.
Thank you very much!
You have inspired me to do more of my build myself. Your quote “Do not fear failure, but rather fear not trying”… love it! It’s 100% truth.
I've watched and seen a carpenter back in another time that was an artist .🔨🎨..not as fast, but a true crafstman such as you. Thank you sir.
Thank you!
MY GRANDFATHER WOULD ALWAYS SAY THEIR IS NO SUCH WORD AS, CANT DO. WE AS HUMANS, CAN DO, ANYTHING IF YOU WANT IT. HI FROM AUSTRALIA. LOVE YOU WORK.
Thank you for following along!
Watching those kiddos lift that wall was super cute. Kicking at the plate with you. 👍
It is certainly a good memory
Dude! Your such a badass. Setting those beams by yourself! Wow. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I found it very nice when your children helped you set up the frames. funny very sweet was your youngest.
Thank you!

I appreciate that! Thank you!
Great progress, looks good! You're gonna be spending Christmas 2020 here at this rate.
We sure hope so! Thanks for watching!
I thought I was the only person who worked alone! Much respect
Impressive, you are a building machine. I truly enjoy watching the progress and I am impressed with your professionalism and attention to detail. I would like to add that you make my knees hurt though, I have to wear pad, you must be one of the lucky guys who can handle it. Thanks for all you do and for sharing your project.
Thank you very much! We appreciate the encouragement, and yes, knee pads would probably be a good idea!
The music choice for this video was really good. Loved it! 👍🏻
Thanks!
Nice to see a man do anything need to get job done
You're just in the zone right now man, Building frenzy. Absolutely Amazing 😀
Thank you!
I one day hope to do for my family what you have done for yours. Way to be an awesome human.

Thanks for watching!
Awesome time laps! Can't wait to see what's next!

Thanks!
I can't wait to see the whole house done.
Us too! Thanks for following along!

After watching this video, I am totally exhausted. You are truly amazing. One man show. How long did it actually take you to do all the work in this particular video? Thank for sharing and for all you do. Take your time though because I want to watch you videos for a long time.
The interior framing probably took about a month by myself. Thanks for watching! Appreciate the comment.
What did you get the format and whole kit to built the building ..can you post the companys where you bought things from?
Thank you for the video, Respect!! I want to build my house by myself too. What would be good sources to learn basic carpentry and have information other than your TH-cam Channel? :)
We're working hard on our website to make it a good searchable resource. Other places would be RR Buildings if you want additional post frame construction content.
Will you be utilising all the loft space, like in the garage??? All looking great from here in the UK
Maybe eventually! For now we will focus on finished the house.
@@MrPostFrame having at least a storage loft is so nice for those holiday decorations and other odds and ends.
Would you share your plans? I’m going to be building something similar and would love a jump off point.
Will have those ready soon we hope!
I’d love to see a time lapse of the completed project.
Oh for sure! We will be sharing that video in a few months when it's all done!
amazing. gave me some courage. question> i noticed no plywood on the roof or sides - is the shear strength of the metal panels equivalent? thanks
You technically don't need plywood on roof/sides with this type of construction. The metal does provide strength, and the spray foam also adds to it. Looking back we would probably do the roof only to make it easier when running pipes through it, etc.
cant wait the finishing a wall....
That'll be an exciting step of this project!
Is a header necessary with post construction? All the framing makes me think stink framing would be cheaper.
This might be a big ask, but could we see your blueprints for this build? Its overwhelming to see all this work. Id also like to appreciate the thought process of it.
We are eagerly awaiting everything to be ready to put them on our website!
I was wondering... have you considered using resilient channels, at least for the ceiling on the first floor? They would help impede the transmission of sound from the top floor by separating the sheetrock from the joists.
You would screw the channels to the joists, and then screw the sheetrock to the channels only in the spaces between the joists. It is an easy process with good payoffs in dampening sound transmission.
I’ll have to check it out.
@@MrPostFrame Well, if you decide to use them on the walls too, just remember that the mounting bracket is on the *bottom.* That makes the sheetrock hang off of the studs, as they're designed to do to provide that break. Too many people make the mistake of installing them upside down (entirely short circuiting their purpose and making them useless) because the correct way _seems_ counterintuitive. But it doesn't matter on the ceiling. 👍
My wife and I are dreaming of building a 30x60 pole barndo. This has been a lot of help. We live in Southwest Minnesota would you come up here to build
Thanks for watching!
Question, if a post frame home is different from stick frame homes, why did you put headers over your windows? I thought there wouldn't be any load bearing down on the windows.
what's the budget on this project? what did you save by completing it on your own? How is the durability and will banks finance these with a home mortgage. sorry for all the questions. love the house!

Marshall Remodel awesome. Thanks man. Looks awesome!
This house is amazing. Have you ever posted about what this project costed you?
6300sf Barndominium for $57/sf | Cost Breakdown + Timelapse | Mad County Build
th-cam.com/video/K0qe3RyO4hg/w-d-xo.html
Is it cheaper to build this type of home than a traditional style home? I have been wanting to buy a house but they are all just so expensive.
It can be more cost effective going this route especially if you’re wanting to do a lot of the work yourself
The biggest problem with kind of framerate vs. realtime is that we never see you breathe! :-)
Haha true! If only we could really work that quickly!
Good afternoon from St John Parish, Louisiana 17 Aug 20.
Hope you enjoyed watching!
Always anticipating your next videos, but was this a past video?
It is a time lapse of the last several. There are a lot of people that enjoy just a time lapse with no talking.
Is that spray foam on walls i notice you put metal siding roght over your tyvac and on fram with no plywood or chip board?
Yes 3" of closed cell spray foam. No OSB on side walls, but we do add OSB to our roof. Metal gives the sidewall it's shear strength which means no need for OSB.
The little girl copying after seeing dad kick the wall into position is great. NOT one cup of splosh delivered to you whilst grafting..... Have a word. Great video, awesome job, only problem I have is I feel Super lazy now. Who can thumbs this down other than jealous people? I love to see people succeed even if they are doing way better than me, they are setting an example for the likes of me.
Love it
who designed the interior framing? could you do a video telling us how we would go about designing rooms and features with structural information, what nails bolts wood thickness etc to use to get good enough rooms, also sound and heat and all that.
We designed the interior. This playlist has the framing in more detail. th-cam.com/play/PL3QM32YjSVn30c5Um9TpbTrOakQDk8Z3L.html
awesome
Nice
Thanks!
What is the overall height of the building, from the concrete to the bottom of the rafters?
Does this save in framing?
Great work but you make my knees hurt.
Haha... probably so!
