Building a Work Shop: Installing House Wrap and Metal Siding
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.ย. 2024
- In this episode of Building a Work Shop, we talk about installing house wrap and metal siding. I also made a small mistake, but it was an easy fix. Tell me what you think about the way our steel shows up, and what we go through on every job. small jobs take little time, but occasionally, we have piles sorted out everywhere. It would be nice to figure out a better system, and maybe a trip to my supplier would be a good video, to see how they manufacture everything and why it comes the way it does.

Yo bro my son is 3 and loves to watch your videos. He always says before bed “can we watch Kyle?” His fav is when you lift walls with the Kubota...then after he watches he grabs his tools and starts pretending to build stuff. Just wanted to share that! Thanks for being a positive role model
That’s the best comment I’ve had James thanks
That stem wall-to-base trim section view is the real money shot. Everything about that speaks to detail indicating longevity of the structure and overall quality of construction.
Thanks Kevin
It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.
We used to punch our steel with a pneumatic nail gun. We had a local guy weld a rod extension onto the driving pin. It worked great.
Randy Farmer - I, like most, have an assortment on under-used old pneumatics laying around. Do you recall what gauge of nailer you had modified? My guess is 16 gauge...
@@ddforrester I think it was an old roofing nailer but I imagine anything would work.
good idea
Guys, you all do a fantastic job. Everything is detailed to the hilt. I have been in the business for nearly 45 years and have seen it all and heard all the excuses. You guys make no excuses, You simply make it happen, come sun, rain or snow, I love to watch you work because for once I believe I am watching someone who has the same work ethic my recent passed 97 year old grandpa instilled in me from 5 years of age. Keep up the good work and keep bringing good tool ideas and videos to our attention I'm in the market for some Festool sanders and etc. Glad to see you preview their track saw the other day! I had some of the same concerns as you! I'm forvever a fan!!
Thanks woody
RR Buildings. No, THANK YOU!! And if you ever need a veteran 54 year young builder come give you a hand on a big job, let me know. I’d love to come tag along and learn from you a little. Hit me up on Woody Scarboro home improvement on Facebook
RR Buildings how do you joint or overlap your F&J trim if you have a roof run say 25’?
99.7 of 100 builders would not have notched that piece of wood to go over where the concrete was a little long on the corner. It's that kind of thing that impresses me so much about your building techniques.
Didn’t take me long I figure why not
Bullshit
Perfect video !
It's great to see the building wrap put on tight like a hotel bed sheet !
Technical artist. Thank you for your videos.
As a Texas builder that has built nothing but steel buildings all his life, this intrigues me. For one, red iron is getting so expensive, that it cutting pretty deep into the profit. Plus wages for decent welders is not cheap, and we all want to produce a quality building. But I do build just as many stick houses, so working with lumber is second nature to me as well. Old habits die hard, and pouring a slab first is so ingrained in me that I feel I'm learning to ride a bike for the first time. lol. Oh well, at sixty years old, and after building many houses and buildings, its probably time to learn a few new tricks. I really enjoy your videos. You and your crew having a blast with a project bring back tons of memories for me.
Thanks for the message that’s really cool!
Amazes me the system you guys have worked out to make all your ribs line up and your trims straight and nice. Beautiful product you guys produce kyle.
Great how to video especially for someone like me who has never attempted this. Thank You.
I've seen you do the trick where you use a hammer and screw to flush 2 pcs of wood.
I'm a handyman and don't do much framing. But I had an occasion to use it and it worked great.
Thanks for the tip.
Heck yeah that’s awesome
I love your attention to details! Especially the trim and corners! I install gas services to buildings and homes, so I see a lot of different trades work. It’s rare to see things done right! I was on a job yesterday and a contractor from Tennessee was installing high dollar 4” thick insulated inner/ outer steel panels. The circular saw wouldn’t cut all the way through, so the used a tin snip on the inside. The trim work was terrible and the bottom of the panels weren’t even, they varied1/4” to 1/2”. They sat on the bottom trim drip cap, so it was very noticeable. And to correct it they would have to remove all panels after the mistakes, because they interlock.
MBCI supplies alot of metal building supplies. Been building them since 1987. We use 100℅ steel. Good quality wood work there.
Nice work Thanks.
Kyle I have worked in the heat of an aluminum smelter & in the cold & the snow! So I know how it is! You guys get it done no matter what! Excellent progress on the work shop! Looking forward to the next video!
I do a lot of Wayne’s coat, on steel buildings. And I don’t put on the stack trim, between them. The top sheet I order to overlap 1-1/2”. The leading edge, of the top sheet, gets the skinny wheel run down it for a little notch, to align the sheeting. Works good.
It's an awl, Kyle, not an AWL. It was historically a cobbler's tool for punching holes in leather. Love your channel. Always informative and light-hearted. Still surprised that Greg hasn't had a meltdown with you but that's the sure sign of a lasting friendship.
I’m constantly amazed as to the skill you guys have. Experience you can see. 🤙
Your attention to quality and the materials, tools and techniques that build in that quality reminds me of Tom Silva, I could watch both of you work all...craftsman both!
Man, I have learned so much from you on how to build. and yes you are getting better with your video production.. love the stand still drone shot.
Thanks ted
Really enjoy the detail you pay attention too.
Kyle, Greg and Zach, I enjoy watching your projects come together and listening to the friendly banter.
That “punch” is properly called a scratch awl”. Designed to leave a line when cutting sheet metal as in hvac work. Originals had a knob ( think old brass interior door knob) that fit in the palm of your hand for better control. IMO.
Punch is fine but use an all steel if you hammer it. Great video, I love watching your projects. Thanks for sharing! 🔧🔫⚔️
You're pleased with the GRKs staying attached to the bit but when I use a robertson screw and bit, I can point the drill in any direction including down and the screw will not fall out as long as the bit isn't too worn down. It actually takes a little force to pull the screw out of the bit. The bit is tapered slightly so it fits very snugly.
Hi guys, you're really doing great work especially by this cold and I congratulate you for your videos.Sorry for my english from belgium A +
Great videos! I’d love it if you show the basics on how you calculate the angles where the siding meets the roofline. I know, basic stuff, but I’m a novice!
I don’t know about anyone else Kyle, but you guys “absolutely” do it correctly from what’ I have witnessed in all your videos!!! I just wished
I knew about you and, your Company when I was putting up my 40 by 60 building! I would have had mine insulated and totally finished on the inside!
But I guess it’s to late now? Drats.....
Thanks bud
Never to late. Get er done!
13:30 You mentioned the new GRK fasteners "stick" to the bit. I've noticed that now to here in mid-Michigan. We were purchasing and using Spax primarily because of this. Now, GRK's. ;)
Yeah man it’s awesome
making it look easy, as always. that lift is awesome !
I don't know how you work in that weather bud. Yea, warm clothes, gloves and all that but dang!
Love watching all your vids on YT and Instagram.
Thanks paul
About to start covering my shed learned a lot thanks
Yes, the brand is super cool on the house wrap!
Good video,I work doing Pole barns here in Tennessee ,just try to learn more from the Professionals
My dog never cared about the laser level beep, but at the end here, the sped up high pitch scissor lift motion beep had the dog pacing the room, he does the same thing with fire alarms too.. haha
I would move asap with all that snow day in day out.
Seeing all the snow makes me want to get some hot cocoa. Reminds me of home.
Thanks Greg for turning the sound off the laser. Every time I hear the laser I have to turn down the volume on the video.
i tend to look in my microwave bc they both have the same peep
Amazing work...Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
As you like woodpack, Yes i also love shed thanks for your sharing with us
Worth the investment to build a perfect coop
VERY GOOD CRAFTSMAN.YOU TAKE PRIDE IN YOUR WORK.
You build lot great shop that gonna last for long time
That look when you hit the corner with the steel perfectly: I love it when a plan comes together. Always a treat to watch your process. Thanks for sharing!
Kyle, I was watching your videos on this building. You had some issues covering your materials when it snowed and you had a couple of tarps but some materials weren't covered. Just my two cents, but you had opened rolls of your house wrap in your trailer video. Just use some of that and you can staple it right to the wood piles and tuck it under your steel piles. Love the videos. I'm hooked. I'm an HVAC contractor but have told anyone who will listen that if I had to do it all over, I would have went to work for a framing company for a few years and then transitioned to HVAC. I wish I had more knowledge of framing. Would like to build stuff! Its all good, I have plenty of friends in the trades.
Shoulda known about and called you when I build my barn home cuz working those sheets was a pain and I had many mistakes.
Love the attention to detail you have
It's not a punch it's an "awl" Thanks for your videos
Kyle, Fantastic videos!!! I'd like to know much more about layout and sizing of a new building. Picking a size with the least amount of waste and cutting, would you do that video please??
Good idea
Looks great
Saw your brought out the shoulder straps!
For the house wrap, it seems that a bolt-on scaffold extension could be used on your scissors lift hand rail as a built-in dispsenor/support while you staple.
Always windy in the RR Buildings seasons 🤣👌
GRK fasteners are the Business. Their driver bits are great, too (hard enough but not so hard they snap off). Every time I use a different fastener I know I’m using inferior hardware.
Enjoyed the vlog! Y’all have to be rough cause the snow and cold would be killing me!! Lol. The south has its perks!! Keep’em coming man!!
Alsome Kyle keep the videos coming I’ve watched every episode u have made and love it
Thanks bill
Missouri just got the storm you talked about at the end. I'll give you a spoiler. Expect 2 more in the next 5 days or so. Round 2 hits us today. Good luck and stay safe.
I like to use 30lb. felt. And recently I have been using metal studs.
Good work. Keep stirring the mac and cheese.
underrated comment. got a solid chuckle out of me.
@@raematthew646 I'll have to believe that it's funny, because I really don't remember what it means haha
Love your work! Going to incorporate much of what you do into my upcoming shop build. STAY WARM!!!
Verry good! I'm Brazilian...
Seems in Canada, the max post spacing is 6 ft. using 3 or 4 layer 2x8's. Also very sticky depending where you live on girt / perlin spacing, usually 2' on center.
Your videos are always great Kyle. Keep'em coming. Working in those sub 0 temps has got to be a strain on you and the crew.
It slows things down for sure
Hey Kyle, how about showing your techniques on getting siding and roof metal ribs to line-up together? Thanks!
I really enjoy these videos!
Your videos are coming along great. Since you enjoy what goes into making them, take a moment to go watch a video on the Ants Canada channel. You'll enjoy his format and the work he puts into them.
thanks will do
No more home improvements it was cool see you working with ur family.
I mean the house wrap couldn't hurt. I estimate maybe 200-400 for material and it could take a few hours to put up so 200 for labor. For a couple of extra bucks and to make it that bit less drafty especially in a climate with cold windy winters. I would say its worth it. Having just steel then fiber glass might be still OK. But that wrap just gives that little extra defense against the elements.
I always enjoy your builds. I wish you were in Texas.
Очень интесно, сам подход к работе, никто лишний раз строй материал вручную не понесёт все техникой, интересно как эти постройки поведут себя в Сибири.
Well if you’re tired of the cold weather come on down to Texas where the temperatures are never consistent and the wind is crazy lol
Yes it is! The ground won't freeze, but you might hit solid rock just a few inches in, and that steel will be hotter that... Well you get the idea.
you gotta get some stinger cap stapler hammer for that house wrap mate
Just purchased my first barn 50-80 getting ready to start building it in January I need some tips on the interior insulation if you have ant clips I would really appreciate it,, thanks
I enjoy watching your video very much. The house wrap fabric may get wet at the bottom of steel side panel because fabric is on top of the steel bottom molding where rain water draft down from the panel and stay. Wouldn't it?
Excellent as usual!!!
It was -32 windchill this morning at our job site!
That's everyday for the crazy framer.😂😂👍 have u seen that guy .he's cut from a different cloth.
F that that’s when you stay home
@@80zbabyz I found his page a few weeks ago hes Crazy.
M. Lo i have i watch all his videos!
@@80zbabyz the first video of his I watched he almost fell through the ceiling joists and then a couple minutes later almost fell off the roof putting decking on.
beautiful .,.,job.,.,congratulataions.,.,frend.,.,gretings from argentina.,.,paz,¡¡,
I want to hear you talk about gutters. Do you install them? Love them or hate them. Sometimes you just got to have them.
Another Great Video, Always Enjoy Your Work ‼️👍👍🔨 Vinny 🇺🇸
G'day Kyle, I'd be keen to see you do a review of your Makita screwdriver in one of your Toolsday videos, along with some other alternatives you may have used. I can see it being used here and I've seen you speak very highly of it in a few videos, but aren't sure precisely which model it is. I could see it being very good for the type of work you're doing. Thanks
Did you ever think about doing a video on the temperature difference in the attic area before insulation and after insulation to show proof of concept?
No I hadn’t.
Good work out there looks great! Keep those batteries charged boss!!
Did you see... menards this week 4-21( Easter week) has $10 per roll rebate on block-it house wrap on up to 10 rolls
Not a bad deal but they don’t stock my custom logo rolls
RR Buildings 😁 though the same thing. First parts for my new shed. I’m an electrician and I’m going to build a 30 x 46ish shed on to my shop. I am in WI near LaCrosse and I talk about you and you buildings quite often. Keep up the great work
"Git it brother"! You guys are fun to watch! Keep the vids coming.
I want to know who the 25 morons are that left thumbs down. I have been a DIY guy for over forty years and have picked up some of your little tricks from your vids which goes to show your never to old to learn a better way of doing things, Keep up the good work Kyle and keep the vids coming.
Omg the stirring mac n cheese lmao theres like 10 viewers who REALLY know what you were talking about... good cover greg!!
Love the videos, especially when you make me laugh. AWL isn't an acronym or a tool brand. What you're calling a punch is an awl. It's usually used to make holes or scratch lines by hand. But like you said, it serves the purpose you have for it too.
william spindler Just paused the video to come read this exact comment 😂
I had a college kid helping me with a remodel and I told him to go grab the cats pawl out of my bag, he rummaged around then said what is it? I said it's like a slipper foot. After that, he was totally lost. I took the time to go thru my tool bag and explain the different tools and their names. After that, he was great
you guys are like MACHINES. I'm just a diyer, If I had the $$$ I'd hire you guys any day
Thanks Ed
Love block it! N. MI Reliable Roofing and Siding, LLC. Love that you guys use a wrap on your barns. What about the insulation blanket if it's got inside metal. Would you put on the inside (isoblanket)???
I am pretty sure that they stack the steel that way to prevent scratching and damage to the finish side of the steel.
As usual great work. Uave you thought about solar panals on top of your trailer with an inverter(inside trailer) to keep your batteries charged while your working??? Just a thought on tue panals.
I have
It must be brutal to be building in those temperatures.. Brittle, frozen stiff or muddy. That's hard work!
Ideal and everlast metal roofing sales are the same way sometimes it sucks
I have watched many of your videos now, great work you guys do! I am wondering if the metal comes in kits and if so where do you purchase them?
I custom order everything individually. Metal sales manufacturing is my metal
Supplier
In Florida for residential construction where i want to use metal siding, do i need plywood or OSB sheathing? Planning to use Rockwood insulation and 1/4 wood panel inside.
Is there a reason that you don't use cap staples on your house wrap? I enjoy your videos . I is good to see someone take pride in their work.
The caps would be visible even slightly thru the steel we need a smooth surface
@@RRBuildings Thanks for taking the time to reply.
Awl is pronounced all. It's made for marking metal but in sure that's been covered many times in the comments. And I have to say I'm a little let Down that I didn't hear "efficient" one time lol
howed you get so lucky to get great crew that you have.if you didn't use the house wrap would you still use the same insulation that you use
Took 12 years and a handful to find them
I’m pretty sure the block it, most like any other hardy wraps are water resistant. That’s basically the main purpose they serve
Hey Kyle, love the videos and your explanations. I was wondering about the wood you're using. Here in Holland, it's always very windy and wet. Isn't the wood going to rot? Or is it treated in some manner? Regards, Carl.
Bottoms are treated the rest is protected
Thanks for going to the trouble of filming your work. What part of the country are you building in? And why is house wrap needed as a wind barrier if the metal siding going on already blocks the wind out? I’m asking because I live in Eastern Washington and the company building my pole barn said house wrap isn’t needed for our area when I asked them if they were going to put it on. I very much like your buildings and the work you do. Thanks.
Stirring mac n cheese lol!! ✌🏻🤘
