Enjoyed the humor of your daughter and your Family time as your work together in your pole barn. We just built one a few months ago and I'm looking to do lights and finish the ceiling. Your video was helpful and very entertaining to watch. Ryan in Ohio.
Cute family. Your daughter kept the video interesting with her narration. It's great to see families work together on projects like this. The end result looks great. I hope to duplicate.
Thanks for watching. Yes, we are a 'family affair'. We really enjoy doing projects together. Check out some of our more recent videos...you'll see lots of improvement in the shed interior. We just keep chipping away at it.
Just curious on the J trim, I wonder if you had gotten bright white for the paneling and not the normal stock white, as white J trim is stocked under SKU is 156-6336 Just bummed hearing about that as I work at the hudson menards. Turned out great BTW, really impressive! not a dimple in sight
+Derek Peterson I probably got the wrong guy. Oh well. Turns out the ends look great after the walls put up. The side we finished on doesn't look perfect, but it is good enough.
I imagine the best way but hardest would have been to use a large Frieze channel, but personally I would have put up the ceiling like you did and then used a normal J on the walls to pocket in the ceiling edge and cover the top edge of the steel for the walls. But as you say, good enough, that's all a barn needs to be. ;) A bit jealous just seeing the ceiling done alone
Any details on that insulation that is in the yellow plastic between the header boards. I currently am building a pole barn and really need something to fit that gap. What do you call it and where did you get it?
+Running925 this was regular fiberglass insulation. The only thing unique was the yellow plastic wrapper. It was marketed as less 'itchy'. I think they may have phased this out. I bought it on clearance. So, just buy some fiberglass insulation and stuff it up there. Just don't stuff it too tight. Make sense?
Planning on doing this, stuck on what trim would be best to go around the sides. You mention it was out of stock, do you remember what it was called or recommend?
It was not ‘out of stock’. The individual I spoke to just didn’t know. Use normal j-trim. In fact, I have a recent video (last Sunday) showing this same task in my new shed. ....we have moved since the episode you just watched. Ceiling and Insulation for the Pole Barn!! th-cam.com/video/0qm4sI87K3M/w-d-xo.html
@@TractorTimewithTim I want the metal on the walls and ceiling so that I can turn the room into the dogs room and easily clean the walls. Otherwise i just like the look on the ceiling too. Just didn’t know if I should just cut out the drywall and put it directly on studs and trusses or if that was unnecessary work.
In NY State all electricity has to be accessibly meaning the boxes and connections... another TH-camr provided this info, where you live it may be different??? The TH-camr I spoke with mentioned the National Electrical Code and it all made sense... you may want to look into it for insurance issues as well your policy if you have one may not cover you if a fire was to occur do to no access hatch... thanks for the video Peter
Im working on a studio in my pole barn.. would this look raunchy as the celing and then drywalling/paiting th walls.. I also ahve canned lighting already installed .. thoughts
Gee, Mckenzie. This would be an aesthetics question. I'm probably not the best to answer that. This certainly has a more 'rugged' feel than a typical drywalled ceiling. This is the same exact steel that is used as exterior siding on most pole barns. Do you have steel siding on the exterior of yours? If so, you know what it looks like. If I were planning to drywall the walls, I would probably drywall the ceiling, or put in a suspended tile ceiling. Do you know what I mean? The suspended tile approach is used in a lot of business offices so that they can easily add lighting, cables in the ceiling, etc.
Tim Christy this is what so have in my pole building I used insulation 8 inches bats 48 foot long went over top and down each side one piece the building has steel sides so it's envelope building in winter best N gas cost 70 cents a day when keeper at 50 PaK Two Rivers Wisconsin
@@TractorTimewithTim I understand. I watched alot of your pole barn build videos. I got the foam idea from you. I used 1.5" thick and slid it into place. But I'm sure my pole barn is build different than yours. I'm just waiting for lumber prices to go down so I can sheet the inside with OSB.
You can see us finishing the insulation at the 12 minute mark. It is R-38 12" Overall, the shed is VERY well insulated. The A/C and heat pump keep it just as cool/warm as our house. ...and I don't even notice the cost. I have no access to the attic. I figured I could cut out a hole for a door as a separate project if necessary. I'm not sure I will ever need access to be honest. I have plenty of electrical circuits running across there already.
now call an insulation company. install R 19 x 24 inch un faced stack it in those walls all the way up to your Eve blocker Insulation. if you live in a cold climate put a poly vapor barrier right over the face of it. then get yourself some 2x4 purlins run them horizontally up the wall 24 inches on center get some interior liner panel for the walls or some plywood so you can anchor shelves to it. then have them blow Loose fill fiberglass(not celullose...corrisve if liner is not painted topside) insulation on top of the liner panel. Small through wall AC/ wood stove/ hunting gear/ beer fridge...good to go
+Elliot Miller well, in a culture which seems to divide over anything, hopefully we can still be friends even if we go to a different hardware store! Menard's is 1/2 mile from my house. HD is 12+ miles. So not practical.
No it's totally fine! When it comes to out buildings Menards is definitely the way to go. You have to be careful with quality on the tool side of things. That's why I tend to lean towards HD. (I'm a Milwaukee fanboy) but as for materials Menards is normally fine! Love the videos and very helpful for those who want to build their own building.
@@sealteamryx6758 I use to go to lowes all the time. It was across the street. Lol but I have since moved and now I go to menards. It's 5 miles from my house. Lowes is 11 and home depot is 18.

+68ray thanks for watching. Welcome to our channel. Check out some of our other videos. Many more where this one came from!
Love to see how active Grandad is! God I pray I can be that mobile in my later years!
Awesome daughter! My little girl is only 3, but she loves to 'help' me on my projects. Hope she continues!
If show her respect and treat her as a trusted helper rather than ‘a little kid’, yes, she will enjoy working with you.
Nice video, great to have all the help from your family. The panels and lights sure brighten up the space.

Great video and great job to all of you. I'm 6 years late here but I enjoyed it!
Thanks for watching! Lots more episodes to choose from :-)
Great results! I hope I have grandpas strength and energy when I am his age.
Nice job, enjoyed the commentary. My roofing is sitting on the trailer waiting for me to get with it and start installing
I've noticed Katriel likes describing things in food related terms....."puff pastry"....great videos. Take care y'all.
+Bill Craddock yea, she always does that. Have you seen the 'cinnamon roll' sod? Look for 'bury the dirt part 1'
I have done the whole pallet on a forklift thing a few times. just 25 feet in the air. Silly me.
Great Job
+Moritz Dapprich thanks for your comment. It gets a bit uncomfortable, even at 15'
Did you put bats on top? What did you use for vapor barrier? Thanks ..
Great job. Looks like you had some willing family for help.
I have a 24x60 workshop with 12ft walls planning on doing walls and ceiling like this.
seem;s like your video is more for the family scrap book than for really helping anyone ,
+wisco let me know when your channel has 6 million views
Did you buy the pole barn kit from Menards? If so how did you like it?
Great vid Tim Smile More God Bless Stay Safe Guys 👍
Looks great!
Is garage warmer with the insulation and ceiling? Or cheaper to heat?
Both. It is like being inside the house. We keep it at 68 or so all winter and 75 all summer.
Just curious on the J trim, I wonder if you had gotten bright white for the paneling and not the normal stock white, as white J trim is stocked under SKU is 156-6336

Nice looking garage Tim I built a 20x20 in 2007 and still don't have lights up and I'm an electrician lol
Oh my. These bright lights we have are a requirement for producing decent video
Hi! Could this be put on drywall? Or would the drywall on the ceiling need to come off?
I’m sure it could be put on drywall…as long as you secure it to the trusses.
Not sure why you would want to add this over drywall.
@@TractorTimewithTim I want the metal on the walls and ceiling so that I can turn the room into the dogs room and easily clean the walls. Otherwise i just like the look on the ceiling too. Just didn’t know if I should just cut out the drywall and put it directly on studs and trusses or if that was unnecessary work.
Probably unnecessary work.
@@TractorTimewithTim Thank you!! Appreciate you and your videos!!! ☺️
looks great did you put in an access hatch???
we did not. We figured we could add one just as easily later if/when necessary. So far, we have not needed to get up there.

Excellent advice! @@BustandBoom
merry christmas, get to work
Hey Tim, did you ever capture all them "Bats" ? So that lil lady don't freak out.
What is the sparing on your rafters mine is 4ft. Was worried about sag
4ft. I bought the thicker/stronger siding from Menards because of this fear. I also ran a 2x4 perpendicular to the rafters every 6 ft or so.

The white insulation on the side walls. What is it?
Foam board 1.5" thick.
1” thick.
@@TractorTimewithTim my bad. Are your Perlins 2x4s? 1.5 would like it flush. Did you use 1" for cost savings?
I used 1” because 1.5” would not slide in. Theoretically they would fit, but in practice they would not.

looks good. :)

ur welcome. :) 9AM to midnight. less if i have things 2 do.
what about access to the attic? Insulation in attic?
You can see us finishing the insulation at the 12 minute mark. It is R-38 12" Overall, the shed is VERY well insulated. The A/C and heat pump keep it just as cool/warm as our house. ...and I don't even notice the cost.
I have no access to the attic. I figured I could cut out a hole for a door as a separate project if necessary. I'm not sure I will ever need access to be honest. I have plenty of electrical circuits running across there already.
...and insulation discussion at 4:45.
...and you can see it at 6:30...
Gotcha. I guess if you needed to get in attic, you could remove a panel.
+Dewayne M that is my thinking. . There isn't much 'attic' anyway, so the only reason would be to run more wires, or something like that.

Get over it.
Nice girl.
I am a dumb city-boy that has no idea why you want a metal ceiling.
Easiest way to do it. Nice solid structure. We see lots of it done in pole barns here in Midwest.

Are you saying Menard’s has a link to this video from their website?
Does the foam against the exterior metal make any noise as the building warms up or cools down? Any squeaking?
The foam is against the sheathing...OSB...so no squeaking. This building does not have steel siding.
